"Hailee, can we talk?" Theodore repeated his question.
"Talk?" Hailee raised her eyebrows and her expression turned into one that was mocking. "I think there's nothing to talk about, Mr. Gevano." Hailee felt proud of her voice which sounded firm and strong. Showing her absolute dislike for any topic that Theodore wanted to discuss.
Hearing Hailee refer to him as 'Mr. Gevano', somehow annoyed Theodore a little. He didn't like to hear such distant addressing from her.
But, he also didn't know why he was so desperate that he even prevented Hailee from entering her room only to have a conversation with the girl when he himself didn't know what to ask.
Theodore knew that this was very wrong, especially when Aileen was sleeping in the adjacent room, after what the two of them had done before, and now Theodore was behind the same door, holding back his ex- fiancée to have a private conversation with her.
But, sometimes desire overcomes logic...
