HIS CONTRACTUAL MISTRESS

Chapter 190 - Want To Puke Remembering His Face



Chapter 190 - Want To Puke Remembering His Face

What happened this evening causes things drastically changed, and she could not stop the news from spreading. She was glad she indirectly confessed to Vince about her true identity the other night.

Whenever the news reaches him, he wouldn't be shocked anymore, or else it will be a long explanation, and he might have misunderstood everything then.

At the moment, she looks at the bright side instead. This evening's revelation is a huge advantage on her part. She didn't need to be cautious whenever she wanted to meet up with her knights and work things for her own company.

She may still need to be careful because of Liam, but she no longer has to hide moving around as everyone in the city keeps an eye on her actions. This time people would stop giving her a judgment look—who they prayed she made a mistake to fire the issue and destroy her name in front of Vincent's eyes.

But people don't know that Vincent has been in love with her for a long time already. Whatever rumor they did before, Vincent overlooked it. The reason all women hate her, including Zenaida Lan.

After the scene a while ago, the people Gigi wished to disappear were voluntarily leaving the restaurant. Not only that, more tables are now empty after they feel guilty. They were one of these people who loved to slander Vincent's girlfriend in the past.

Most of these guests at that restaurant judge Hailey ever since the gossip broke out that she is Vincent Shen's mistress. Openly or in secret gatherings, they would love to talk about this foreign ESCORT, who suddenly appeared in Metro City.

She was always a dessert at every party's gossip she attended when Vincent took her as his date.

And now it revealed the truth. They felt embarrassed to even look in her direction. Those stern glances and arrogant gazes have gone but feeling shame to themselves.

"Finally, the air is cleaner this time than before." Gigi sighs with satisfaction.

Hailey could only shake her head. Sipping some wine in her glass, she swallowed the liquor and pursed her lips. "You should not do that."

She's pointing out the part Gigi wanted everyone to leave the restaurant. Although these people constantly throw judgment at her, she never cares about their opinion.

"I can't stand it anymore!" Gigi stressed out. She's frowning at Hailey for not doing anything about these people. They need a slap on their faces!

She went on, "Since I arrived in this city, all I heard are people spreading false gossip about you! I wanted to do this during the launch, but I know it will be a bad image for our store. But this time, I don't care anymore!"

"Alright! Calm down. Thank you for being my voice." She told Gigi. She knew Gigi would stand up as a reliable older sister to her, and she felt lucky about that.

"That at least I could do," Gigi explained. "You know, these people's wrong assumptions must end. They don't know who they were insulting! They were worms, but you are a butterfly! Let the bird eat them!"

She giggled at Gigi's phrase. That was sweet of her and funny at the same time. "So you are the bird, then?"

"Not, but your boyfriend. He should be the one taking care of these worms."

"He's protecting me from them. It was my choice not to give a big deal about them."

"Humph! Not anymore!"

"Yeah. So thank you for being my big sister."

"Of course! And I'm not doing this because I owe you my life. I consider you a genuine friend and my little sister. I wished you happiness, and I could see you find it with Vince. People should stop misjudging you."

"Don't make me cry now." Suddenly, a warm feeling surging in her chest connected to her eyes.

Gigi is the same as well. Those painful memories suddenly flooded in her head that made her emotional. And so, before they both cry, they change their topic. It's a good thing that their food now serves; they began eating.

"I already ordered something for you. It was your favorite lamb steak and vegetable salads, so add other dishes you would like as well."

"Thank you." She told Gigi with a timid smile across her face.

Later on, Gigi notices that she's not eating at all. "What's wrong? Don't you like what I order? Do you prefer Italian cuisine?"

"Hm? Oh, I'm fine! It probably exhausted me from answering calls and explaining to some people before I came here," she reason's out.

"How about Uncle Jacob? What did he say about your announcement?" Gigi asked curiously. She mused, 'If Hailey is having a hard time explaining to her dad, I would love to help her.'

"Dad and I haven't talked yet. But I told Kris, let dad find my post."

"What do you think his reaction would be?"

"Honestly? I don't know. But I'm hoping he will give me a chance to explain." Hailey heaves a long sigh. Suddenly, her head was throbbing.

"I think as long as you are honest with him, he'll understand. And possibly, he will accept Vincent without a problem."

"I'm praying so," said Hailey.

They continued chatting, and this time, they were discussing tomorrow's first day opening of the DV Gem Store at Metro City Garden mall. And tomorrow is also the first day for them to take office at one of the Shen Tower in the central city.

But Gigi could see that Hailey was only pinching her salad. She only set aside all the meat she saw on her plate.

"What's the matter? Aren't you eating that? It was your favorite, right?" She grew worried about this girl. "Does what I did earlier bother you? I'm sorry if I…."

"No! It's fine. Besides, the food tastes good. I love mayo and... But I don't want to eat the tomato. I think it's good if it has bacon and ham in it. Also pineapple with a lot of cheese, but I hate this avocado."

"You are weird. You love avocado. Are you sick?"

"Or maybe I'm just stressed lately because of Liam. Now I'm craving other food to think about him. I felt like I want to puke remembering his face." Hailey pursed her lips.

"Hm. I want to puke as well, seeing Galvin's face. But I am enjoying the food!" Gigi tried to lighten the mood, but Hailey's energy seems to get lower.

"Yeah." Hailey continued playing on her plate. She pinches the corn with her fork and puts it to her mouth, munching the food slowly.

Gigi continues observing her behavior. She thinks something is wrong with her. "You know what? You aren't eating at all. You are only playing with your food."

"I'm just thinking a lot. That's why I don't have the appetite." She tried to make excuses because she truly has no appetite.

"Okay. But so, not like you. I know that you have never been saying no to food."

"Maybe one reason is that I'm missing Vince. You know. We haven't talked about my true identity yet. Even though he showed no resentment toward my lies, I must not take it lightly. I need to explain everything to him, including Eva, that the guy she's living with after getting married is my best friend, now my ex-fiance. And Liam, who is a threat to him. Liam is ready to kill anyone that is a love interest of mine." Hailey's litany and she felt out of breath.

"I know that. So it is even the reason you have to eat rather than stressing yourself thinking about anything."

"Yeah. I have to force myself to eat. I nagged Vince when he missed eating on time. But then I'm the one not eating properly."

"Yeah. So stop playing with your food."

Hailey giggles. "You sounded like a mom."

"I would discipline my children, yes!"

"That's a wonderful feeling..." Hailey paused when her eyes caught something, and she blurted out suddenly.

"Oh, my gosh! That's yummy!"

Gigi saw how her eyes twinkled with excitement. She followed the direction where Hailey set sights at.
