Chapter 261: WHY DO YOU CHANGE YOUR MIND?

Ramon arrived at the area of ​​an old office building that had not been used for a long time, where the glass windows of the building had been shattered and the paint on the walls had been peeled off.

David, Ramon's head bodyguard, walked beside him, but there were only the two of them, while the other bodyguards were in different places, they did not enter this area and were asked to wait by the car.

After arriving at the place Ian told him, Ramon stood there quietly, looking around.

"This is a bad place to meet, don't you think?" asked Ramon in the silence of the night, as if he was talking to someone.

However, his instincts were right, because not long after, Ian's figure appeared from behind the broken door of one of the buildings. He was wearing a black jacket and hat, as if he didn't want anyone to know.

"I had to make sure no one followed you here," Ian said in a low voice, but his eyes fell on David, who was standing next to Ramon. Needless to say, the bodyguard was fully armed.

"So, are you sure now?" asked Ramon in a light tone.

"You don't need to bring anyone else." Ian nodded at David. He thought Ramon would be brave enough to meet him on his own.

Ramon did have the courage to meet Ian alone, but he also had the money and the sharp mind not to.

Sometimes, courage will only get you into bigger problems and Ramon doesn't plan on having another problem in his life.

"He's not someone else, he's my bodyguard," Ramon replied in a very clear voice. "I don't know how the situation will turn out, but I don't like having to make physical contact."

In other words, if Ian did something suspicious, Ramon wouldn't get his hands dirty by confronting him. He wouldn't pay a bodyguard such a high price if he had to fight someone else, wouldn't that be really stupid? Typical people who have a lot of money to waste…

"So? What do you know?" Ramon asked after a long moment of silence, which enveloped the two of them.

"You didn't tell Hailee about this?" Ian asked again, making sure that Ramon kept his word and only breathed a sigh of relief when Ramon shook his head. "How was Hailee's pregnancy? Is everything all right?"

Ramon laughed sarcastically, a laugh that would make you think twice about going against people like him. "Hailee has me as her husband, so there's nothing to worry about."

Ian snorted when he heard those words filled with an arrogant tone, but also couldn't deny that what Ramon said was true.

Hailee's life is now secured and she is well protected.

"You didn't ask me to meet in a bad place like this just to ask about my woman's condition, did you?" It was clear how possessive Ramon was when he said that, especially when he emphasized the word 'my woman' in his sentence.

Ian was silent, he seemed restless and uncomfortable, occasionally he would look around him and also at the roofs of surrounding buildings.

"Why? You are jealous?" Ian asked with a laugh that sounded very stiff, as if he was throwing a joke that wasn't funny.

"My jealousy is devastating. If I got jealous of you, then you wouldn't stand in front of me and talk to me like this," said Ramon sharply.

Those decisive and domineering words made Ian gasp and his laughter just disappeared.

"Where are you going?" Ian stepped hurriedly toward Ramon when he saw the man about to walk away.

"I don't want to waste my time just hearing you say unimportant things while I have a wife who needs my attention," replied Ramon lightly.

That sentence not only made Ian uncomfortable, but also David who was beside him. The bodyguard looked at Ramon in disbelief. Since when Mr. Tordoff started saying such cheesy stuff? Where did he learn it?

"I'll tell you who the people who have called me are if you come with me somewhere," Ian spoke quickly. "I have something I took from them. Maybe you can recognize him."

"And what is it?" Ramon folded his arms across his chest.

"A… a business card. One of them accidentally dropped it when he saw me last time," said Ian quickly.

Another spell of silence embraced them as the two of them stared at each other for a few long seconds.

"You know what Hailee told me about you?" Ramon put his hand in his jacket pocket as he walked up to Ian and stopped right in front of him. "She said you were a bad liar."

"What?" Ian frowned, but you could tell he was getting more and more restless.

"For things that matter, especially when you're not sure what you're doing and circumstances require you to lie, you'll give yourself away terribly." Ramon smiled kindly at Ian, but everyone else knew it was a sign not to mess with him. "And you'll start talking pretty quickly."

"I… what?" Ian was getting nervous.

"That's what Hailee said, I wasn't sure at first that it was true, considering you're used to dealing with brutality in your job." Ramon looked at Ian from head to toe with his piercing gaze. "But now I can see why my wife said that to me. I'm quite annoyed that her words are true, which means you two know each other well."

Ian looked back into Ramon's eyes. This is the man who became Ian's best friend's husband. The woman he loves. Should he continue all this? If this was indeed the path he had chosen, then why did his heart feel uneasy and keep on shouting to himself to stop all of this immediately?

Ian then moved his mouth to form a word; 'Go.'

Ramon caught what he was saying, then looked around him. The old buildings still looked empty like no one was there, but of course if Ian was saying that secretly, then there was something strange.

"Go away," this time Ian said the word in a low whisper.

"Why should I leave?" Ramon smiled at Ian, waiting for his answer unhurriedly and this frustrated Ian.

"Because of this," said Ian, then took off his jacket and showed the inside, where a small microphone had been attached, indicating that someone else was listening to their conversation.

Ramon snorted when he saw that. "Then why did you change your mind now?"
