Chapter 314: PAIN (5)

After saying his piece, Lexus stood up and was about to leave the room when he saw Ramon opening the door from the outside with a pale face and sweat dripping down his forehead.

However, what attracted most of Lexus' attention was the menacing look in Ramon's eyes as he glared coldly at Leon. Lexus could clearly see a wild killing intent in his brother's eyes.

If Lexus and few of their bodyguards weren't around, maybe Ramon would have lunged at Leon and killed him on the spot, convinced that he wouldn't get any answers from the man, because Leon was so determined not to open his mouth and let out any information regarding Hailee's whereabouts.

But, Lexus had already restrained him and said quickly. "I know where Hailee is," said Lexus.

That one sentence had a great impact and it was able to pull Ramon out of the darkness of his own thoughts and make his attention now focused on his brother.

"Come on," Lexus said. He didn't want to discuss this in front of Leon. "We have to hurry."

However, before the two of them left the room where Leon was being held captive, the man called from behind to get the attention of the two of them.

"You might be able to find out where she is, but I think by the time you get there, you'll be late." Leon laughed softly at the change in Ramon's facial expression. It turned out that this man was not as cold as the rumors said about him.

Or maybe Ramon would only react like that when it had something to do with Hailee, after all he had never felt this way before. Fear, despair and helplessness as if he couldn't do anything… such feelings sent his fury even more out of control.

"I had to admit, I didn't do anything to her, but there is one thing you should know…" Leon paused in his sentence to enjoy the anger gathering in Ramon's eyes with his growing hatred. "You should know that you and your wife seem to have enough enemies to make things difficult enough for you for decades… and as for myself, I'm just helping them to get what they want by bringing them all together… I'm not bad, am I?"

Hearing that, Ramon was about to take a step closer to beat Leon until he realized what it was like to be on the verge of death, but Lexus moved faster, his younger brother took the chair he was sitting on earlier and threw it at Leon.

The chair hit the wall, but then bounced and hit Leon's head, although the effect wouldn't be as fatal as when the chair hit him directly, but still, the impact was so hard that the wound on his head opened again and a lot of blood gushed out rapidly.

"Come on, Ramon, we have to find Hailee," Lexus tried to persuade his brother who was still standing motionless in his place, it seemed the desire to kill Leon was so strong that he couldn't even move his feet from there.

But, hearing Hailee's name, reluctantly, Ramon finally took his eyes off Leon and followed Lexus out of the small room.

"Where is she?" asked Ramon, his voice so hoarse and his appearance so battered, because after all, they had spent such a long night without resting for even a second. "Where's Hailee?" Ramon repeated his question impatiently.

"According to what I learned earlier, I think she's in town F, in one of Leon's properties," said Lexus, touching his chin, deep in thought and trying to reanalyze the answer Leon gave earlier.

"Leon doesn't own any property in town F," replied Ramon firmly. He had read the files on Leon and he still clearly remembered some of the properties under either Leon Dawson's or Herbert Long's names. None of these are in city F.

"There aren't any?" Lexus frowned. He was very sure that when he mentioned the words property and city F, Leon gave an expression that confirmed the statement. Or maybe, Lexus got it wrong?

"Axcel Dimatrio…" Hailee repeated the name. Of course she didn't remember who Axcel was, but it was certain that she would always remember the surname Dimatrio. "Roland Dimatrio…"

"Yes!" Axcel clapped his hands once and smiled very sinisterly and horribly. "He is my father," he said. "You know what your husband did to him? What impact will it have on our family? Or my position?!"

The more questions Axcel asked, the higher the pitch of his voice and the more Hailee could hear the deep hatred in his tone.

"You destroyed my family's reputation, destroyed my father's career and mine and you have dishonored the Dimatrio family!" Axcel was now no longer laughing. His face that was full of arrogance was now filled with fury as he bit out word after word venomously.

But, Hailee didn't want to back down either. She wouldn't give the pleasure of being able to intimidate herself to someone like Axcel.

"You deserve it," Hailee quipped sarcastically. She looked straight into Axcel's eyes, pursed her lips and clenched her fists until her fingernails pierced her palms, but Hailee ignored that because she didn't want Axcel to see that she was shaking.

Yes, Hailee is scared. She was afraid that something bad would happen and she couldn't defend herself. Only this time Hailee felt resentful because she couldn't and didn't know what to do.

"Deserve it?" Axcel glared at Hailee and repeated those words. "You said we deserved that?"

Hailee lifted her chin and glared at Axcel, mustering up all the courage she could. "Yes," she answered and she was grateful that her voice wasn't shaking. "Do you know what dirty things your father did?"

Axcel didn't answer Hailee's question with words, but instead, a very hard slap landed on Hailee's cheek.

So hard that for a moment, Hailee didn't know what happened to her when her body fell to the floor, only her instincts and reflexes made her hug her belly to protect her baby.
