Martha who heard the strange order could only agree and leave Hailee's room.
Meanwhile, Hailee was still wondering.
What made Theodore come to the Tordoff residence? How daring of him to be here? Especially at an hour he knew Ramon wouldn't be home.
"Ramon," Hailee called him when the phone was picked up on the second ring. "Are you busy?"
"No," replied Ramon as he put down the document in his hand. "Do you want something?"
Hailee fiddled with the hem of her dress while shaking her legs. "I want you to take me out to eat. I want to eat seafood."
Hearing his pregnant wife's request, of course Ramon would not refuse. He had no reason to refuse. "I will be right back to pick you up," he said softly.
Hearing that, a sweet smile bloomed on Hailee's lips, but then she told him what was going on at home. "Theodore came to our house."
