His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 245 - Her Boyfriend

Bryan's eyes widened as he recognized the man who joined their conversation. This man sat down next to Hailee, placed his arm around her shoulders, and then planted a sweet kiss on her lips.

Actually, when Hailey and Bryan began talking. Hailey dialed Vince's phone number so that in that way, he could hear everything they would talk about.

And it moved him. Hailey wanted to strengthen their relationship in this way. Although she need not do that as he already trusted her, he is happy that she wants to be open to him with everything and anything that might lead him to get jealous.

Bryan, on the other hand,?has now known who Hailee's boyfriend was, and he was still in great shock.

Gazing at how the couple made eye contact, they looked at each other like they were alone in that room, as there is so much affection shown in their eyes, ignoring his presence.

In this scene, Bryan does not need to ask what was going on. Clearly, Vincent Shen is the boyfriend Ray mentioned over the phone.

But when did their relationship start if Hailee is now pregnant? Isn't Vincent Shen just signed a contract with Davies Group, and Hailee never reveals herself to him?

These are the questions playing in Bryan's head. He couldn't still grasp what was going on at the moment.

But it is real. Hailee has someone she loves more than anyone else now! It's not just someone she thought of as a brother.

Bryan stared at the couple in front of him with so much jealousy and ached in his heart. He never imagined that a day would come and someone would take her away from him.

"Hail...." He could not find the words he wanted to say. He remained to stare particularly at Vincent. "How long are you in a relationship already?" He asked.

He wanted Hailee to clarify whether she had a relationship with Vincent Shen before she offered the contract. Or, she provided projects to him because he was her boyfriend.

To recall the time he accidentally eavesdropped on her conversation over the phone, she mentioned a name, Vincent. Then that was Vincent Shen.

Hailey looked at Vincent before she returned her gaze to Bryan. Somehow, she could read what was in Bryan's mind.

"Vincent didn't know yet that I am Hailee Davies. It was the reason I refused to meet him when I came back to sign the contract personally. All Vince knew was that I am just a foreigner in his homeland."

'That makes sense,' thought Bryan. But why? Still, it confused him.

"Mr. Anderson, if you want assurance if I stay faithful to Hailee. I am forever loyal to her. And if you question my love? I have been in love with her for a long time already. Even though she didn't know of my existence yet."

Bryan listened carefully to every word that was coming out of Vincent's mouth. He asked,

"What do you mean for a long time already?"

Where did they first meet? Is it the reason Hailey cannot love him romantically? Bryan mused inwardly as he listened to Vincent's explanation.

"Four years ago, I met this beautiful girl with a heart of gold, selling lemonade on the busy streets of Budapest. I fell in love with her at first sight. But I didn't have time to introduce myself because of some family circumstances."

Vince's eyes never left Hailey. Bryan could tell how a man looked at the person he truly loved the way it shines.

After a moment of pause, Vince turned his head toward Bryan and continued.

"And after over three years, I could never be happier when I meet her again. Her heartbreak is a blessing in disguise for me. If it doesn't happen, I think there's no way she'll come to P Country."

Bryan was a little offended by what Vince had said. But he has no right to refute. He truly hurt Hailee back then. He betrayed her, and because of that, she left Australia heartbroken.

"I thought you were different from other men!"

Bryan could never forget what Hailey told him that day. It keeps repeating into his head that haunts him almost every night.

Remembering that, he shook his head and shrugged this thought aside. Even though he will regret it a million times, he could not win Hailee back. Maybe he must slowly accept the truth.

"Then how long have you been in P Country, Hail? Isn't it just recently you went to Metro City for the launching of the Asia Branch?" He asked Hailee after his long silence. "How many weeks have you been pregnant?"

Hailey shook her head. "Just recently, we found out. But my symptoms have begun for a while now, but I do not know that it's a sign that I am pregnant."

"You were probably pregnant for almost two months now," Vince said with a proud smile on his lips, and that made Bryan jealous.

"Do you think so?" Hailee blushed after she realized they were discussing it casually with Bryan, her ex-fiance. Is this even right? But Bryan is not a stranger to her. After all, she just admitted that she wants Bryan to remain as her brother. She believes it isn't unfair both for Bryan and Vincent.

"Bryan, before I will explain everything to you, I need your help. I want to talk to Eva first. There are important things I need to ask her."

If she will tell Bryan about Liam Huo and what he did that involves Eva, possibly Bryan will explode in anger now. Then, her plans will go wasted. And so, it's better Bryan heard it from Eva's mouth.

On the other hand, Bryan stared at Hailey with confusion. He has been wondering what Hailee wants from Eva. Now he remembers, Eva is from Metro City.

By chance, did Eva do something to Hailey that he didn't know?

"Do you want me to invite her here?" Said Bryan. He's becoming too curious and eager to know the truth.

He is confused about what is going on here, and he badly wants answers. He had things he wanted to be enlightened about.

"Since you are here now. Maybe this is the perfect time to talk to Eva." Hailey agreed. Then she glanced at Vince. "But I want to eat first. I'm hungry," she whined, using her cute sweet voice.

Bryan remembers how she sounded like this if she wanted to be pampered. But this time, it wasn't him whom Hailey persuaded, but another man. From here on, it will be another man who would coax and spoiled her.

Meanwhile, Vince pinched Hailey's cheek. Even in a situation like this, she cares more about her cravings than thinking other things.

"Why are you too charming? But yes, eat all you wanted first." He chuckled then kissed Hailey on the lips, ignoring the man seated across from them, dying in jealousy.
