"I've calculated everything," said Ramon firmly.
Ramon had calculated all the possibilities that would happen and thought about the consequences carefully, although maybe something unexpected did happen later, at least he was sure that this was the best step to take.
Ramon wasn't the type to wait to be attacked while anticipating the blow, but was the type to attack first, because then he could control the situation better.
"If you say it like that, then I can't say anything more." Lexus sighed.
Between the two of them, Ramon was the strategist, so if his brother was sure about the steps taken, Lexus could only follow his lead.
"Does Hailee know about this?" asked Lexus while glancing at the door, where Hailee was sleeping. "What do you think? Can she do that?"
Instinctively, Ramon did the same. He stared at the closed door as if he were looking at his sleeping wife. "Yes, she knows about this and I'm sure she can do it."
"You're really confident about Hailee, she can act recklessly and get carried away by her emotions," said Lexus, laughing softly to lighten the mood.
"Of course she will do well." Ramon then turned his gaze to his brother as he continued his sentence. "She's my wife."

Theodore stole glances at Aileen as he was about to go to the bar again.
He knew that what he was doing was wrong and cowardly, but Theodore couldn't help but continue it. He really needed to get away from Aileen as he didn't even want to see her.
However, the situation this time was completely beyond his expectations.
Theodore thought Aileen would cry or sulk, begging him to be nicer to her, because after all, Theodore had left Aileen on their first night and the nights after that during this honeymoon.
But, it turned out that all of Theodore's estimates were wrong, because Aileen did not react or respond according to Theodore's expectations.
The woman looked indifferent when Theodore was around. Even now, the two of them were acting like two strangers living in one room.
Every time Theodore was heading to the bar, Aileen wouldn't ask where he was going or even glance at him at all, as if she didn't think Theodore was there and this bothered the man.
Theodore felt that it was unusual to be ignored.
However, to talk to Aileen first, was not an option that he wanted to choose either, therefore by secretly glancing at Aileen, he left the room.
Since it was the last night of their honeymoon and after that the two of them would go back, Theodore planned not to comeback until the time of their return.
After all, why should he care about a woman as vile as Aileen who had done all these dirty acts. He was already so ashamed to make that woman his wife.
On the other hand, it was only when Theodore had closed the door with a loud thud that Aileen turned her head and stared at the closed door with hateful eyes.
Gone was Aileen's love for Theodore, or you could say she didn't love him at all.
Love? Aileen laughed inwardly when she thought of that one word. Since when did Aileen love Theodore? She simply saw the man as a mission to complete from George.
Yes, her father really wanted her to be able to enter the Gevano family, no matter what.
However, after Aileen managed to do that, she didn't feel the slightest bit happy because her goal had now changed. She no longer needed Theodore.
After he knew? Aileen's darkest secret and now he acted indifferently toward her, that woman didn't need Theodore's help anymore.
Indeed, Aileen had to admit that she had let her emotions overwhelm her and almost killed Theodore on the first night he had returned drunk and unconscious.
But, then she came back to remember her life and her purpose. It hardened her heart that this man was just a stepping stone and now that Aileen had entered the Gevano family, then Theodore was nothing but trash…
"How about we release the first tip regarding your husband's affair?" Aileen asked Giana shortly after the woman picked up the phone call from her.
This was one of the things that Aileen liked about working with Giana, because this woman was not as difficult to contact as Aidan was.
"Let me know what it was first, I know the right person to take advantage of the news," Giana said calmly.
"Then, what about the Tatum company?" Aileen again reminded Giana of their agreement.
Hearing that, Giana just chuckled. Aileen was cruel and cunning, but of course Giana was on a different level from her. "I promised you two months and it's only been a week, be patient and ask me again in seven weeks."
After saying that, Giana didn't want to waste her time chatting with Aileen, so she directly ended the call.
================
After Giana hung up the phone from Aileen, she looked at the simple house in front of her and breathed heavily, because soon Giana had to face one of the problems in her life.
With a heavy heart, Giana opened the door to the house which creaked in protest and hurt her ears, but Giana didn't care because her mind was now drifting to the last conversation she had with Dillon before she left to attend Aileen's wedding.
At that point, things got awkward because Dillon openly confessed his feelings for Giana and that complicated things between the two of them.
Giana wasn't supposed to be here, but she needed Dillon, either as her personal assistant or as a friend who was always by her side, because the real battle was about to begin and she really needed this man.
Not only had Giana made her father's condition worse with her last visit, but there was a long and grueling divorce trial she had to go through and Giana needed Dillon to keep her sane.
