Chapter 162: WHY DO YOU CARE?



Chapter 162: WHY DO YOU CARE?

\'You are a coward.\'

Aileen\'s accusation echoed in Theodore\'s ears and left the man feeling full blown rage for a moment. His eyes flashed eerily as he stared at Aileen who was moving away from his embrace.

Theodore didn\'t even try to pull Aileen back into his arms and stood still in his place. This time he made no effort to calm Aileen\'s uneasiness and irritation at all.

Meanwhile, Aileen was still unaware of Theodore\'s reaction and was still trying to maintain her pretense. Even now, her eyes were filled to the brim as tear drops fell down her cheeks one by one.

A scene that used to melt Theodore\'s heart and usually make him give Aileen everything what she wanted, but it didn\'t seem like it was the case now, because right at this moment, what occupied Theodore\'s thoughts were the uncertain feelings he felt when he saw Aileen in her current state.

There were some things that have changed between him and Aileen that he was now aware of.

And it seemed that the realization came too late for Theodore and made the man question his feelings for Aileen again.

Apparently… no, Theodore knew that he didn\'t really love Aileen. He didn\'t even like her that much. The feeling that Theodore had for Aileen was a feeling of superiority.

Theodore loved how Aileen made him feel needed. Unlike Hailee who could do everything alone, to the point of making Theodore feel unwanted and inferior. His ego as a man was always satisfied whenever he was with Aileen.

Together with Aileen, Theodore felt different.

It\'s just that it felt different now. Theodore didn\'t want Aileen being like this, nor did he want Aileen to depend on him.

This feeling was really very unpleasant and being around Aileen no longer made him happy.

"Theodore you are relinquishing your responsibilities," Aileen said. Her voice sounded no more than a whispering sound and the expression on her face would make anyone who saw her feel pity. "This is your own flesh and blood..."

"Aileen… I know… but," Theodore said, shaking his head in self- disdain. He didn\'t think that right now he could fix anything in his relationship with Aileen anymore.

Never mind marrying this woman, to be with her in one room already made Theodore feel cramped.

So, how could this relationship work out so well?

"But what?" Aileen squinted her eyes as tears rolled down her cheeks, which she brushed off hurriedly, making her cheeks ache from the friction. "You are a coward, Theodore. You don\'t even dare to come forward and take this responsibility."

After saying this, Aileen ran out of the room, leaving Theodore there standing still alone.

When the door closed violently, as Aileen slammed it and it was certain that this was attracting unnecessary attention from those who saw this scene, Theodore grabbed the phone, which was lying on the table and immediately slammed it on the floor until there was a loud and deafening sound when the object was crushed into pieces.

Theodore then roared angrily, gripping the edge of the table and tugging his hair from their roots on his head.

His eyes were wide open, staring at the closed door and he was grinding his molars so hard that anyone who saw him would be afraid that he would crush his own teeth.

However, it was at this very moment that Theodore remembered what Hailee had told him about Aileen.

Hailee had not warned himself about Aileen only once, but she actually reminded him to be careful twice and Theodore was stupid enough to ignore her words altogether.

But not this time.

Hailee wouldn\'t say nonsensical things. Although, Theodore did not really understand Hailee and the relationship between them was not very good, Theodore was sure of one thing; Hailee wasn\'t lying then.

She wouldn\'t spout some nonsensical things.

Hailee was not a girl who would tell lies. Therefore, if Hailee had to warn himself about Aileen, it meant that something was up.

He should take her words into consideration earlier, and now Theodore would find out all of that...

After releasing the grip of his hands on his hair, Theodore immediately took the other cellphone that was in his pocket and called someone.

He wanted this matter to be resolved immediately and if the warning that Hailee said was true, then...

Theodore still hadn\'t thought about what reaction he would give if he found out that everything that had happened so far turned out to be what Hailee had said...

Was that true that Aileen had been hiding something from him?

After what Hailee said earlier, Ramon changed some of the proposals and agreed to place a huge playroom for children in the central hall, which would be a special attraction for the mall.

However, it did not mean that Ramon did not consider the aesthetic area as requested by the two regional officials. Ramon only moved the area to the back of the mall which faced a central park and also passed several tenants with similar concepts.

Moreover, the back of the mall was a suitable area if visitors wanted to experience a slightly different atmosphere and seek serenity.

Especially with the central park in front, which would add to the beauty of the aesthetic area later.

It was a perfect arrangement…

Ramon really got the best solution for the disagreements that were raised, even though Hailee\'s proposal won the place, but this in no way made the two regional officials feel that their proposal was ignored.

And it must be admitted that what Ramon said was true; the aesthetic space would be better if placed next to the central park in the mall.

"Good job," Ramon said and then leaned over to kiss Hailee on the forehead, after they had escorted the two local officials totheir cars and the meeting for the day was declared over. "You have a talent for making decisions like this."

"It\'s just a coincidence. In the past, my father thought of opening a branch office in this place." Hailee tried to sound casual.

"But that doesn\'t take away the fact that you have a talent for management." Ramon then put his hand on Hailee\'s hip.

Hearing the compliment and finding Ramon hugging her waist so naturally, Hailee couldn\'t help but blush.

"You really considered my suggestion," she said. "I did not expect that."

The two of them then walked in the parking lot to their waiting car, followed by the four bodyguards who were Ramon\'s personal bodyguards, as well as six other bodyguards.

"Of course," replied Ramon. "I asked for your opinion, right?"

"Then, where are we going now?" Hailee was smiling very broadly, happy about how Ramon was treating her now and feeling optimistic about this relationship.

With these changes, Ramon seemed to have to fix some arrangements with this mall and had to give the details of this new plan to Danny. However, all of this could wait, for now there was something more urgent.

"You haven\'t eaten, what do you want to eat?" Ramon asked as he opened the car door for Hailee and put his hand on her head so she wouldn\'t bump into it.

Hailee thought for a moment and found a comfortable position for her to sit in, while Ramon turned around the car and sat beside her. "I want to eat grilled fish," she said.

"Got it," Ramon said and Charles drove them off to one of the best restaurants in town F.

It seemed that today was the perfect day for Hailee.

"The lawyer you asked will be here in half an hour," Dillon reported to Giana. His eyes then continued staring at the woman in front of him who looked very sluggish and lackluster, as if the whole hue of life had left her.

Making Giana look like a mannequin with a soul rather than a human.

Dillon felt sorry to see Giana like this, but there was not much he could do and what happened before only made him feel awkward in following his \'work description\' now.

"You haven\'t returned to the Smith house yet," Dillon said the statement spontaneously and gave Giana a more intense gaze, when he saw her wistful eyes stare back at him. "You should go home and rest, not be here."

Dillon felt uncomfortable seeing Giana\'s current condition. This woman was really very stubborn. Not only had Giana been torturing her own feelings, but now she was starting to torture her body as well. Who knows how long she will be like this ...

"I\'m not going back home." Giana turned her attention to the pile of documents lying on her desk and started going through each important document one by one. "There will be a family gathering tonight and it will be in a restaurant."

Both Giana and Aidan\'s parents thought that this was a delayed dinner, where Giana and Aidan were very busy, because Giana didn\'t say anything about her plans later.

"Are you going to discuss this later?" Dillon didn\'t seem to need an answer to his question, because he already had a feeling that Giana would say yes.

"Yes, that\'s why I need this lawyer to come with me tonight." Giana then leaned back against the back of the chair and massaged her dizzy head.

"I don\'t think it\'d be better to bring in a lawyer for tonight\'s event. Their reaction will be very strong against all of this." Dillon then sat on a chair, opposite Giana. Only a large, messy table stood between them.

Giana narrowed her eyes and asked sharply, "Why do you care so much about me?"
