Lexus slept very soundly last night and didn't even dream of anything. He didn't even know how Hailee and Ramon's meeting with Ian went.
Therefore, when the sun finally peaked from behind the horizon, the first thing that came to Lexus' mind was to go to the couple's home to find out the hottest gossip.
The thought really excited him. What better way to start the day than a thrilling story?
With this intention, Lexus immediately took a shower and changed clothes to go to Ramon's house and pick up the full story about last night's events.
Therefore, Lexus was very surprised to find a man at his house, waiting in the living room as no one told him until now. Well, he really hadn't seen anyone this morning.
"Who are you!?" cried Lexus frantically when he found Ian in his house. He did know Ian from Hailee's stories and took a glimpse of his face, but of course such insignificant things wouldn't sink into his brain for more than five minutes before being simply forgotten.
Ian, who had been waiting for Lexus since morning, looked at Ramon's younger brother with squinting eyes. "I've been waiting for you since morning," he grumbled.
Even though Ian had never met Lexus directly, who didn't know about the Tordoff brothers? Their faces were very recognizable because they were everywhere.
"You haven't answered my question yet, who are you?" Lexus grumbled, he looked around him, but there were only the two of them. How could a stranger enter his house and pass through such tight security?
"I'm Ian, Hailee's friend," Ian replied, introducing himself curtly.
"You're Ian?!" Lexus gasped, he was surprised because the topic to gossip about later was right in front of him. How could this man be here? "Why are you here? What are you doing here?"
The corners of Ian's lips pulled up into a scornful smile when he heard Lexus's words. "What am I doing here?" he repeated in disbelief. "You should have asked your brother about that, since he was the one who sent me to spend the night at your house last night."
Ian was still very upset about the fact that Ramon had sent him to his brother's house which was about five minutes away by car as the entire estate belonged to the Tordoffs.
But, of course, what really annoyed Ian was because he realized the real reason Ramon sent him to his brother's place, which was because he didn't want Ian to be near Hailee, them being in the same building wasn't agreeable to him.
Ramon's attitude is so childish!
"Ramon sent you here? Without telling me?" asked Lexus, his eyes wide, unable to believe that his brother sent a man like Ian to his house. Isn't Ramon worried about his sweet little brother's safety?
As time went on, Lexus felt less and less of Ramon's attention on him. Well, that didn't mean that his brother had been paying attention and pampering him all this time...
"Why did he do that?" Lexus looked annoyed, he approached Ian with a face that showed that he was not happy to see a stranger in his house.
"You can ask your brother that, I don't know the answer." Were all members of the Tordoff family like this? Although in a different way, they were really weird.
================
"Caught?" a man stood with his back to another man, who informed him that their plan to take Ramon Tordoff away had failed which then turned into a boomerang for them because some of their people had been caught by Ramon and until now their whereabouts were unknown.
"I'm sorry, I'll take care of all this." The man lowered his head, feeling afraid to face this man's wrath.
He was the most manipulative and cunning man he had ever seen and getting this man mad, certainly wasn't a good start.
But, unexpectedly, this man actually laughed softly, a laugh that was enough to make one's skin crawl.
"He really is very difficult to deal with," he muttered. "Should I intervene myself to deal with him?" The question sounded more to himself.
