HIS CONTRACTUAL MISTRESS

Chapter 301 - He's The Man!

Before Hailee could take a step forward, Vincent stopped her track. She looks up at him with questioning stares in her eyes.

Vincent did not answer, but his eyes traveled from her face down to her legs. She did not understand at first.

"Is something wrong?" she asked curiously, wondering if she needed to wash her face. Or maybe had a shower? But she already did that a couple of hours ago, and so she didn't smell of anything, and Vince's reason made her confused.

"It's getting windy. Maybe something thicker is better?" He replied.

'Thicker?' Hailee tried to figure out. 'Is he mean my clothes?'

Hailee is wearing a bikini underneath a see-through halter dress. She wanted to feel comfortable around the house, and since she was only staying in her bedroom all day, she only put a little effort into getting dressed.

Besides, she didn't feel bothered changing clothes either since she wore a two-piece bikini countless times in front of her knights.

But Vincent insisted for her to change her clothes, and Hailee did not protest nor complain. She just could see that he was a conservative man. So she let Vince ravage her closet to pick out a dress that was appropriate to the occasion. In the end, she likes what Vince chooses for her.

After changing her dress, Hailee hurried downstairs.

"Hey, guys!"

"Princess!"

Her knights greeted her cheerfully, raising a bottle of liquor or a glass of champagne. After Hailey mingled as much as she could with all of her knights, she walked toward the open kitchen where five of her knights were currently busied to grill and prepared food for everyone.

"George!" Hailee called out to him.

The prince is seated on a stool, immersing himself in watching James making sushi while stuffing his mouth with the dish.

"Hey, princess!" George got up from his chair, opened his arms wide, and snuggled Hailee inside. "I missed you, cousin!"

"Hi! I missed you, too! Thank you for responding to my call," she hugged George in return and thanked him.

After she made a phone call to him, asking for his help to gather the European knights, he was actually pretty happy. He used this as an excuse to escape from his royal duties and had a break once in a while.

"You are very welcome, princess. I'm just a call away!"

Hailee smiled and let go of George after she remembered Vince got jealous if she was intimate with other men. He made a promise to her that he would try to be friendly with everyone. So she need not guess; Vincent is only concealing his frown.

After Hailee greeted George, she gave Alex a brief warmed hug before turned to her other cousin, Simon Gramont of the French monarchy.

"Hey, princess." Simon kissed her cheeks and hugged her tight. He actually doesn't care if Vincent is keenly watching them from behind.

"I'm so happy to see you, Simon. It's been a while."

"Yeah..." Simon is naturally sweet to her. He didn't let Hailee go, but Vincent found an excuse to separate them.

"Darling, aren't you hungry? James! Give the princess a platter of what you are making."

James flashed a glare at Vincent. 'Don't you dare to order me around, punk!'

But James didn't voice out his thoughts. He only flashes a big smile.

Hailee hangs out with her cousins, Vince and Andre, at a round table while her seventy knights scattered around the garden and pool area.

"Princess, we're going to spend the night on your yachts!"

"Sure, guys!" she replied, and everyone cheered.

"Yeah! Party 24/7!"

Half of her knights now headed and occupied her two superyachts. The mansion has several rooms, but many choose to stay afloat in the ocean not to create so much noise later.

They would stay drinking till morning. It would mean that they will make so much commotion after getting drunk, and they don't want to bother the princess and her future in-laws, Vincent's family.

Hailee's knights were always this thoughtful, especially after learning that her pregnancy was a sensitive case. They were showing consideration. It was something Hailee loved about her knights. They were always sensible toward her.

Meanwhile, looking outside the window, Sheena and Deana would occasionally check out the party in the infinity pool area.

The sisters joined their mom upstairs since they weren't allowed to do anything but wait for the maid to serve them.

When Vincent arrived earlier with these men, they were extremely shocked.

"I was still surprised to meet Prince George as Hailee's cousin!" said Deana gleefully.

It's not the first time she met the British prince in person. The prince never missed watching a soccer game. He showed full support to the team, and he really gave attention to them.

On many occasions that Wallace brought her, Prince George was also attended those gatherings, so by then, the prince already recognized her, and she felt honored.

Sheena also recognized Hailee's wealthy friends from Paris, Italy, Spain, Germany, Russia, and other European aristocrats.

To be honest, it is not too shocked for them who grew up as princesses themselves, but it's different having the royal blood and the world knows, which their case, it was a secret.

Even so, the truth still overwhelmed them that their sister-in-law is not just a typical wealthy girl but a super-rich girl with super friends and aristocrat relatives!

"Mom, we need to spend a lot of fortune for my brother's wedding!" said Sheena to their mom, who was only silent the entire time. They grew wary, but the sisters weren't sure what was on their mom's mind. They knew how she would love to show off.

"Of course. As we could see, the European aristocrats would be there to witness your brother's wedding because the woman he is going to marry is someone who greatly influences the entire world." Hilda's remarks. "Not only that, all billionaires that listed in Forbes Magazine will going to be there as well."

Sheena and Deana shared a glance. Rather than worrying, their mom was sounded even prouder and delighted about this wedding of the century. Well, they knew why their mom was not bothered about it—her future daughter-in-law is someone like Hailee Davies.

Anyway, what she said was true. That's why Hilda only immensely occupied herself on her iPad, checking every wedding detail to make everything is perfect.

Janise is keeping her updated every day. At the moment, she was checking out the progress of Hailee's wedding dress. Soon, Kelly would fly to Metro City with them to help Janise complete the dress. Then, Hailee would have a first fitting of the dress.

No one may notice, but Hilda was actually elated to see Hailee on the dress.

Later in the evening…

The world was wonder-struck after Hailee Davies' official account on Instagram posted several photos.

The first one is a snapshot of Hailee talking with five men, which only one of them is holding her by the waist. So they are curious what was their relationship.

Her followers were in the hype because these three men are the princes from Europe, her noble cousins.

Soon, they were curious about the other guy. Since they could not comment on her post, no one could reveal that he was Hailee's handsome and young uncle.

But that is not the only one that got their attention. It was most especially about the man who was all over her.

And their curiosity soon answered when Hailee posted a second photo kissing her fiance with the caption "My LOVE…."

Same as in the first post, they could not comment to ask if who is he?

Finally, the third photo she posted is a stolen shot where she could clearly see the face of her future husband as she put a caption "HUBBY…."

Finally, the whole world met the mysterious fiance. Immediately, the netizens dug about him.

And since Hailee tagged Vincent Shen on her posts, they started to stalk his Instagram account. Many have begun following him, and they were fascinated with his contents, mainly about the projects he was working on in the past and present.

They see on his profile that he is from P Country and he is doing many international projects, and the newest one is in Dream City, Australia.

With this information, they tried to guess when their relationship began?

Anyway, one thing is for sure... Hailee Davies is marrying the architect she hired to work for her.

Several platforms and Instagram account users reposted the post. Many put a caption that possibly the love bloomed after Vincent Shen signed a contract with the Davies Group. And many were malicious posts only.

But many are also took Vincent's side and defended on his behalf.

"You should see he owns his own company! A yacht's business!"

"He owned countless skyscrapers across P Country!"

"His mom's family is the most wealthy family in P Country! Don't underestimate their hierarchy!"

"Still, it could not compare to Davies' wealth! They are one of the wealthiest families in the world!"

"We are certain Mr. Shen did not come after Miss Davies' money!"

The hot topics would be going on in the next few days.

On the other hand, the news only surprised a little among the billionaire's circle. They already knew Vincent Shen. What only shocked them was him being Hailee Davies' lover all this time.

"What a lucky man!" Their hearts filled with envy.

In their minds are questions of how Vincent Shen courted an aloof princess-like Hailee Davies?

Every single tycoon man in the business circle has been trying to woo her, but they could not pursue her as much as they wanted because of Liam Huo.

Now it made them realized. Vincent Shen feared nothing. It must be something why he won over the princess's heart.

Based on his Instagram posts, they've already been together for almost a year.

Looking at the dates, he was already showing it off to the world about this girl he was living with. He has posts with the girl's hand intertwining his while they are walking on the beach. Or a blurry picture of a woman he is with at a party and many more occasions, but he would only show their, hands and it looks perfect together.

Metro City, P Country

When the news exploded, Jake, Lloyd, and their buddies were at M Country Club for a drink. Except for Jake and Lloyd, all of their friends have just learned that Hailey Hillson is actually Hailee Davies.

She is not just someone an investor of DV Inc, but she is the actual owner of this gemstone company.

"Holy shot! I could not believe it! We are actually hanging out with this heiress in these passing months?" asked one of Vincent's friends after reading entertainment news on his phone.

"Yeah, dude! I can't believe it either! Ah! No wonder she beats me in our race! Dammit! I love her supercar collections!" another friend of Vincent chimed in.

There was a bet in the past. The winner would take home two million in P Country currency, whereas the loser has to pay.

On behalf of Vincent, Hailee accepted the stake, and she won. They are so jealous of Vincent to find a beautiful girlfriend that is actually a drag race driver.

She was only clinging to Vincent's side every time they all hung out. But her shyness fooled them! She looks lovely and elegant.

But during the race, she beat their asses!

"Damn! Look at her friends! They were tycoons in the business world!"

"But our friend is also a tycoon! They could not be superior to him. Our dude could stand on the same level as them!"

"Damn negative comments! I wanted to fire back!" chimed in by one of their friends at the same time, Vincent's business partner.

"Snapped it out, Ben. Just let them throw whatever they would like to say. Our friend never gives a fuck about these trolls."

"Yeah. Lloyd is right. We better have a toast for our king! He's the man!" Jake echoed.

Vincent's friends raise their glasses and cheer, "Long live, King Vincent!"

It was more likely a joke to their friend, but none of them actually knew that he truly had the royal blood in his veins, which the entire world didn't know as well.

Anyways, it would just be a matter of time…
