Chapter 352 - The Best Man (One)
Hailee and Vince drove toward the highland they planned to build their castle. The car parked under an oak tree, but Pitt pulled over ten meters away from the couple.
Jessa got the best position to capture the couple from a distance—filming while Vince got out of the car, walked around the passenger seat, and opened the door for Hailee.
"The place is one of Hailee's favorites to hang out where she could gaze out at the entire city," Pitt told Jessa.
"The princess' great grandpa planted that tree." He added.
"Oh. This place is significant to Hailee," Jessa gets out of the car and gasps with awe.
The overlooking scenery from that height is spectacular. Jessa slowly walks toward the couple to ask a few questions..
"Hail, this place is beautiful! What are you planning to put up here? Is it a restaurant? A hotel?" Jessa aimed the camera at the couple as she threw a series of questions.
Before Hailee answered Jessa, she took Vince's hand and held it tight while her eyes never left him as she spoke.
"This is my wedding gift for Vincent."
"So I will build a castle here for our family," added Vince, lovingly staring into Hailee's eyes.
"Oh… That is so sweet of you both!" Jessa wipes the tears that suddenly fall from her eyes. The days that she witnessed this couple's love story indeed moved her, and she saw how this couple was in love with each other.
But she didn't see it coming. The first thing in her mind is a five-star, three-story restaurant. With the breathtaking view from that place, it will always be difficult to get a reservation to dine here.
But the couple had a better idea. This place is indeed perfect for building a castle where they could watch over their kingdom.
"God! This place is too beautiful! I cannot wait to have a house tour in your castle soon. Promise me I will still be the one to have the first tour!" said Jessa.
"It will be years to wait, but sure! As of now, we have to focus on finishing this city, and Vince has more upcoming projects not only for the residents but for the guests to enjoy visiting in the city."
"Yay! I'm already excited!" Jessa gave the camera to Pitt and rushed toward Hailee to hug her tight. "Thank you, Hail."
"I should be the one thanking…."
"No! I could see how you are trusting Vincent so much. And I am happy because my cousin is an honorable man, and he deserves you, and he is worth keeping, you know." Jessa winked at Hailee, who she giggled.
Hailee glanced at Vince. She had that silly smile on her lips and a mischievous glint in her eyes.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtVincent did not guess, as he already knew Hailee had naughty stuff playing on her head. Hailee scanned him from the head down to his shoes as she mouthed,
"More than worth it!"
Jessa chuckled, but not Pitt. He only rolled his eyes and mused inwardly. 'This girl has become an expert in flirting!'
Hailee gave Vince a flirty and seductive look, saying to him that body serves her well.
"He sure could warm my bed, and so, I will keep him forever," Hailee added, then she winked at Vince.
Jessa giggled and teased her cousin. Vincent could only shake his head. He stretched his arms and pulled Hailee closer before he ravaged those silly lips of her—as punishment; he didn't let Hailee go until he wasn't satisfied.
Jessa gave Pitt a knowing look before she lol at the camera and spoke...
"Gosh! No wonder I've seen a lot of ants around here! Bees are everywhere! This couple is producing nectar all over the place! Well, that sweetness had fruit with three babies! This is your host Jessa is signing off!"
Pitt handed the camera back to Jessa. She looked around, pulled out her phone from the back pocket of her jeans, and began taking a picture of the whole place.
She checked the photos, and after she was satisfied, she put back her phone and resumed chatting with the couple, thankfully done kissing now.
Pitt's phone rang; he called out Hailee after speaking to the person on the other line. "Princess! Breakfast is ready!"
"Okay!"
They went to the apartment and headed straight to the rooftop—where Hailee's executives were already there. Jessa dropped her mouth to see handsome men preparing breakfast and setting up the table in their office suits.
She never misses an opportunity to film everything. She meets more of Hailee's executive knights! And as Janise told her after she met Pitt, Hansen, James, Geoffrey, and Chester, except for Keith Cole, who she knew very well, undoubtedly they were all handsome!
It astounded her that Hailee didn't fall in love with one of them. It was overwhelming, but destiny proves that they are meant for each other.
It was undoubtedly fate!

Since she has permission to film scenes that are perfect for featuring in the documentary, Jessa recorded her camera while having breakfast.
All the men were pleasantly chatting with Hailee. Jessa then noticed that only Pitt, Alex, Hansen, and Tom were giving attention to Vincent, while the rest didn't mind him.
After the sumptuous breakfast, Hailee brought Jessa to their unit in the building to have a quick tour. Jessa's reaction is the same as his mom and sisters after seeing those photo frames on the wall.
It shocked her to see these hundreds of men! "Wow." She recognized half of them, of course. They are from an affluent family, certified bachelors in the world!
"Hey, Vincent… How did you manage to court these men to approve you?" asked Jessa. She was too curious to know. What she witnessed during breakfast made her feel pity for Vincent.
Vincent swept his gaze to the wall. "Hailee's European Knights are nicer to me, and only her executives who are civil toward me because they invested too much emotion and attention since Hailee is a kid."
"I see. That's understandable. But they can't harm you, right?" Still, it worries her. Vincent is like her younger brother.
Vincent smiled. He reached for Jessa's arm and rubbed it. "Don't worry. In the end, they cannot dare because of their respect and love for Hailee. I know they were in love with her. And that's what made me feel pressured. I need to prove that my love is bigger than them."
"Way to go, brother! Damn! You made me emotional now." Jessa wipes the tears in her eyes. "I am so happy that you are finally in love and to your true love."
Vincent hugged Jessa and said, "Thank you. I know the girls were gossiping to you. I'm glad you didn't tell mom."
"Why would I? I am very happy that there is a woman you fell in love with! There are times aunt Hilda called me just to fret off her frustration. But I just listen and reveal nothing."
"Alright! I have to see if Hailee needs me."
Jessa nodded at Vince, shooed him to attend to his wife.
Vincent went to their bedroom. Hailee excuses earlier that she needed to use the toilet room, and Vincent is worried that her morning sickness attacked, and she feels nauseous.
Left alone in the living room, Jessa would love to take a few photos of Hailee's apartment, but it is kind of sacred to her because of these hundreds of pictures on the wall.
Not long after she had to wait, Kelly and Janise came to take her to the hotel to stay with the other guests soon.
Janise and Kelly have to finish Hailee's skirt one week before the big day. Thankfully, two hotels are completed in time, and all it needs is to decorate and furnish every suite.
Hailee already had the concept of what ideas to furnish the two hotels. But as it needs to be fully furnished as soon as possible, she assigned the Davies Corporation Interior Designing Department team to finish the work before the guests arrive one by one soon.
After a quick chat, the girls left. Hailee scheduled an emergency meeting with her executives.
"Wifey, aren't you tired yet?" Vince was on the steering wheel. He is worried that she is not taking a proper rest since they landed in Dream City. They had only a few hours of sleep after they made love on the plane.
Thinking about that, it actually brightens his face. Hailee's mood lately is great, and he is glad to serve her.
Vince glanced at Hailee, who was busy preparing some documents she wanted to discuss at the meeting. He steals a kiss on her cheek.
"Hmm… Stealing a kiss, huh?" Hailee lifted her head and looked at Vincent, who had a massive smile on his lips. "Don't worry, hubby. I'm fine. Well, as payment for stealing a kiss from me, you must give me a long massage after work."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHailee seductively spoke her words, and Vincent could only shake his head and chuckle. 'This girl is always behaving naughty around me.'
It was torture for him because he could not spank her yet.
Vince parks the car. Before he got out to open the door for Hailee, he leaned over and whispered to her, "You naughty girl. How many spankings should I give you after you give birth?"
Hailee gasps. Her mouth parted open, and her eyes flickered with excitement. She lowered her gaze and bit her lip while staring at Vince's tasty mouth.
"Bad, hubby, bad. We are having a meeting soon, and you made me wet now."
Vincent was stunned, screaming inside of his head. 'You are seducing me as well!'
"Ahem. Let's go. They are probably waiting now." He gives Hailee a quick kiss and rushes outside. Vince let out a heavy sigh. 'This girl never stops testing my control!'
Meanwhile, Hailee had that big smile on her face after Vince got out of the car. She is just playing with him, as she wants to see his reaction, which is always priceless.

Davies Group HQ
"Good morning, everyone!"
Inside the conference room, everyone was already waiting for her and Vince.
"Let us wait for the team from the design department."
While Hailee spoke in front of everyone, Vince pulled the chair for her to take a seat. Hailee smiled and thanked him.
"Thank you, Mr. Shen."
It's one thing Vincent admired about his wife. Hailee knew what mood she must use in front of her employees during work hours.
They were facing a crisis, and she played very well as the team leader.
"So, how is it going? Are we ready to accommodate all the guests on my wedding day?" Hailee began.
"We need at least experienced or even inexperienced service crew in the hotel. We should fill the kitchen with hundreds of chefs," Chester reported.
Hailee contemplated. It is indeed a big problem. "We only have three weeks to prepare the service crew for their assignments."
The last time she checked the applicants. Only a few are best to hire immediately, as she made a lot of changes.
"I guess I need a backup," she told them, and everyone agreed with the solution she came up with.
