It's Hard to Control My Naughty Wife!

Chapter 391 - YOU ASK FOR IT



Chapter 391 - YOU ASK FOR IT

Candice spent the day at Tordoff\'s building, inside Lexus\' office, watching the man at work when the issue of the kidnapping of his brother and sister-in-law surfaced in the media.

Lexus looked different when he turned serious. He looked even more terrifying when he was like that and the shadow of his always cheerful and never even raising voice self vanished in an instant.

But somehow Candice liked it. He looked more authoritative and responsible.

And while Candice wasn\'t much help with the search for Ramon and Hailee, at least she made an effort to help with little things and made sure she was there to support him.

And Lexus was very grateful to Candice for that.

Until now, Lexus had never really taken care of things alone. Ramon was always by his side whenever he needed something or their mother, but this time, he had to face everything on his own and even after trying with all his might, he still couldn\'t find the whereabouts of that bastard, Leon.

This frustrated him, because in the hands of a madman like Leon, every minute counts. He could do anything to Hailee and Ramon and no one would know about it.

Until the phone call came...

Lexus had just put Candice in bed, in the break room in his office when Leon called him, speaking to him in a voice that made Lexus want to beat him up and hate himself for the fact that this disgraceful man was his father.

"I heard you were looking for me," Leon said when Lexus finally picked up the phone from him.

Lexus\' eyes narrowed when he heard those words. He didn\'t have to ask to find out who the person that called him was. "And you heard right," Lexus replied.

Leon laughed when he heard that. "You did a good job, son."

And that last word really made Lexus want to go up to him and kick him to death. "Where are you? Let\'s talk."

"Now you want to talk to me?" Leon asked.

"Well, you\'ve made a fuss that I can\'t ignore. I think you\'re very curious and desperate to talk to me, so okay, let\'s talk," Lexus said lightly, as if this wasn\'t a big deal, but if Leon could see Lexus\'s expression now, he would think twice about messing with him...

The anger of someone who was always cheerful was terrifying and unpredictable.

"We can talk, but only if you do what I say," Leon said.

"I\'m not an obedient child. You can ask Ramon about this. Where\'s my brother?" Lexus asked casually.

"Don\'t worry, he\'s fine. I don\'t really have the heart to kill him, you know your cousin sister, Giana, still has some unfinished business with him." Leon chuckled.

Giana…

Lexus took note of anything, the slightest bit of information that could help him find Ramon and Hailee.

"Oh, what else does that woman want to tell my brother? Tell her she\'s not as pretty as Hailee and if she thinks she can win Ramon\'s heart, she\'s very wrong, I know my brother, he doesn\'t like \'used\' goods."

It was an insult that Lexus could think of at this moment and he could hear Leon laughing again. It seemed that none of Lexus\' words could make him emotional, because he felt he was at the top of his own game, where whatever step he took, he was the one who would come out victorious.

And it was sickening…

"What do you want, Leon?" Lexus finally asked. His voice now deep and even, like someone talking about important business. There was no sarcasm or anything and Leon responded the same way.

Lexus was a little angry when he found out that the way they spoke sounded the same, as if they had more bonding, which wasn\'t a good thing to him. After all, Lexus hated the very fact that Leon was his biological father.

"For the first request, this is not a difficult request," Leon said in a voice that sounded very clear and made Lexus seem to be able to guess what he wanted.

"Just say it, you\'re just wasting time here."

"I want you to call me dad," Leon said, just as Lexus had expected.

Even though he had predicted the request, Lexus still felt this sudden urge to break something when the word slipped from his lips because he didn\'t want to argue and waste any more time.

Lexus regretted his decision that he didn\'t expect Leon to call him and didn\'t install a tracker on this phone.

If only he had done that, maybe he\'d know where this bastard was by now. Had this been Ramon, his brother would have thought the following few steps very well...

"Father," Lexus said. His voice sounded very distant and as if devoid of any feelings, but he had said it anyway and Leon wouldn\'t be able to force him to say that horrible word with more feeling. "What else do you want? Do you want to celebrate all the father\'s days you spent alone with me now? We can arrange a meeting."

Leon chuckled, but then he said, "I\'ll think of something else. When I know what I want from you, I will contact you again," he said.

And Leon didn\'t even wait for Lexus to respond before he hung up on the phone.

Lexus tried to call the number again, but the number was no longer reachable.

"D*mn it!" Lexus growled angrily, he raised his cell phone high and was about to slam it against the wall across the room, but when his eyes caught a sleeping Candice, he curbed his urge and stepped out of the room to call someone else he thought could help.

In front of Lexus, was the view of the city at night that looked so beautiful with lights illuminating every dark corner of the city and he was standing in one of the tallest buildings in the city, as if he was on the roof of the world.

But, Lexus didn\'t feel happy at all. He couldn\'t help but wonder what Leon would want to be able to do with all of this when all these things didn\'t look so pleasant to have.

"Hello?" Lexus said when the phone call was connected. "I\'m sorry that I\'m bothering you so late at night…"

But then Lexus\' words were cut off as the man said in a slightly hoarse voice. "I know, I was waiting for a call from you."

Lexus chuckled. "Sorry, I only called you now, Mr. Tatum."

"I know, I\'m now in city A, we can meet in the morning," Diego said.

"Can we meet now?" Lexus asked hopefully. He didn\'t feel like he could sleep tonight with all the trouble surrounding him and making him uneasy.

"That\'s much better," Diego replied.

And after a short conversation with Diego, Lexus went back into the room and looked at Candice\'s face who was still fast asleep. He didn\'t want to wake her up...

Therefore, Lexus wrote a note and placed a key on the small bedside table before he left and locked his office door from the outside, so that no one could enter recklessly.

===================

The room was dark, there was no sign that could tell him it was day or night, because there were no windows for him to see how the sky was outside.

But, that was the last thing he was worried about, because right now, his mind was only focused on how Hailee was doing and where she was now.

That was all in Ramon\'s head now that he finally came to his senses.

This place was not that dirty, more like a workshop with all kinds of tools scattered on the floor and also oil splattered in several places.

Ramon recognized the two guards who had come to deliver him food. He didn\'t talk to them because it would just be a waste of time and energy, because they would definitely not answer any questions he asked.

The food served couldn\'t be said to be luxurious and appetizing. At this point, Ramon didn\'t think he would enjoy any kind of food, but he ate it nonetheless.

As long as the food was decent, then he would eat it. He would not starve himself or be weak. It was a bad choice because it would not bring him any benefit.

And actually it was all a gamble, maybe they put poison in the food, but Ramon bet that they wouldn\'t do that.

Not if they hadn\'t got what they wanted.

But, today, she came…

Giana walked into the room, with a pale face, while bringing him food.

"Hi, Ramon… finally we can meet again," Giana said. She walked over and placed the food in front of Ramon, whose left hand was tied in handcuffs, while he was sitting on the floor. "I didn\'t know I had to do this to be able to talk to you."

Ramon smiled, a smile that was completely harmless. "Sorry if I have to trouble you," he said softly.

Giana was a little surprised when she heard how Ramon spoke, so softly, as if they went back in time.

However, Giana wasn\'t that stupid as to deceive herself by thinking that Ramon was sincere to her.

"No need to apologize, I\'m enjoying my time," Giana said. She then took out a small pouch filled with white powder. "I received your gift well."

Ramon glanced at the small object and smiled at Giana. "I see you like it."

Giana laughed lightly when she heard that. "Yeah, I like it, I like anything you give until you give me a big problem in my life."

"You asked for it all."
