His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 365 - One Special Place I Wanted

Four days before the wedding…

Hailee woke up early in the morning and quickly took a hot shower. Vincent was also preparing to go to Davies Group HQ, as he needed to attend a board meeting on Hailee's behalf.

He noticed Hailee prepared her purse and a fur coat. "Wifey, are you coming to the office too?" he asked.

The way Hailee dresses up today, she is only wearing a black maternity dress. It was decent, but he thought it was not suitable for a board meeting, the reason he asked.

"I'm going to see Dr. Dave for a sonogram this week," she replied with sparks in her eyes. "Hubby, they are getting heavier."

"Oh. I should accompany you then," said Vincent. He couldn't stop worrying, especially after Hailee said that. Also, he doesn't want to miss the opportunity to see his kids again.

Vincent cannot wait for Hailee to give birth to their kids, as he wanted to hold them already. Just watching them through ultrasound and listening to their heartbeat is such a joy to him. It made him feel complete. That's why he couldn't wait to see them soon!

Vincent had these wonderful thoughts when Hailee turned him down. She said,

"You don't need to accompany me today, hubby. Gigi will be with me, as it was her prenatal schedule, too. Don't worry, Sheena will come with us and, of course, Tom will be there for Gigi."

'Then why can't I go?!' Vincent had a silent protest, but Hailee must have a reason. He thought.

Hailee, on the other hand, wanted to burst out laughing at the expression Vince is exhibiting on his face. She wanted to make fun of him, but she knew he was unhappy after she didn't allow him to accompany her.

And the reason is, they plan to reveal the three babies' gender tomorrow night.

It was her mother-in-law's grand plan to hold a baby shower after Vincent's bachelor party and her bridal shower during the day.

Jacob and Fred were told about Hilda's plan and they let her take care of that as they have their own tasks.

The royal families and mafia lords are arriving two days before the wedding. They must accommodate the guests by themselves.

And so the gender of the babies will be a secret for now. Neither of them will know but the doctor, Sheena, and Gigi, since they were the master planner of Hailee's bridal shower.

"Why is mom not coming with you?" 'It's impossible she would miss this chance. In the passing months, she became the super-mother-in-law toward Hailee.' He mused which he has no idea of what will happen soon.

Hailee is putting on her coat, l Vincent rushed to her side to help her.

"Mom is decorating the Meadow Hotel dining hall for a baby shower party tomorrow night," she finally revealed her mother-in-law's plan.

Hilda had a plan to mention it this morning's breakfast. But before anything else, there was already a discussion that happened yesterday morning over breakfast.

Carl and Rodney insisted on having a two days bachelor party for Vincent. With Pitt and James planning, they are supposed to have a car racing from Dream City toward Perth City.

After that, they will onboard Hailee's yachts to continue the fun. Pitt and Carl prepared several activities, but unfortunately, Hilda didn't approve of them.

The men tried to argue with their aunt.

"Aunt Vince is going to tie a knot. He is also a father now, expecting three kids. Can't you see? He will have no freedom soon! He has to focus on running a giant corporation and then taking care of his big family. Where is his enjoyment?"

Both Hailee and Vincent throw dagger looks at Carl. He sounded exaggerated that Hailee would take control of Vincent.

After he heard Carl, Vincent wanted to punch his cousin in the face. Like he cares about his freedom. All he dreams of these past four years is to tie down to the girl who steals his heart away. Besides, he more enjoyed being with Hailee than being apart from her for too long!

"Stop assuming a*hole that I'm afraid I will lose my freedom." Vincent sneered at the guy.

"Like I will control Vincent to go out if he wants to have a drink with you guys," Hailee added.

Listening to Vincent and Hailee's statement, Hilda contracted her pupils, sizing up her nephews. These two are the most persistent among her nephews and nieces. No one dares to disobey her, but only Carl and Rodney, who always provoke her and measure her temperament!

"No one is leaving in Dream City! Vincent's wedding is just five days away. What if you got into an accident?"

"Aunt Hilda, why would you say that? Of course, it won't happen. We will make sure all our cars are in good condition! Also, there will be security that will monitor us!"

"I'm talking about all the possibilities! It's winter here in Australia. Who wants to go swimming in the freezing ocean?"

Carl and Rodney shared a glance. It was the latter who replied.

"Aunt, that's the punishment for whoever loses in our games." Rodney had a big grin on his face, which was only scolded further by his aunt.

"And you wanted Vincent to freeze to death?"

"Of course not, aunt! Like Vincent would let himself lose against us!" Carl attempted to save Rodney, but he was also rebuked by his aunt.

"Both of you, shut up! Do whatever you like! But no one leaves Dream City! You can throw Vincent a bachelor party here!"

The boys look at Hailee with pleading eyes, asking her help to convince her mother-in-law. Hailee swept her gaze to the dining hall, where all of her knights also had breakfast with them.

Everyone wished they could have fun because they also hoped to give Vincent a beating. But to their disappointment, Hailee said this,

"I agreed with mom Hilda. You guys can race around here. There are hills and deserted areas where you guys can play with your toys."

After Hailee said that, Hilda looked at her nephew with head high. She is very pleased that her daughter-in-law sided with her.

The Empress Dowager won, and Hilda felt so proud.

The men dropped their shoulders, disappointed that they could only have less fun.

Vincent somewhat feels relieved. Though he would not back down to these men's games, facing hundreds of Hailee's knights is a different story. He is keener to be friends with them than beating up each other's faces.

"Guys, we have a lot of dump trucks to create a motorbike race track. You also can do tag wars, or shooting, laser tag, paintball..." Gigi suggested to the men, but she is particularly looking at Tom.

"You're so brilliant, sweetheart." Tom rewarded Gigi with a kiss on her lips.

Carl and Pitt rolled their eyes. 'Another couple who love showing off around.'

"Yeah. We can do that! I will call someone to deliver our guns!"

"Then what are you guys waiting for? We should start preparing everything!" Carl stood up and prepared to go out.

"Vincent, leave your bachelor party to us!" James assures.

"You're just using me to take this as an opportunity to fool around," Vincent smirks.

"Of course! This is an opportunity for us to have a long vacation! It's time to have a fun buddy!" Lloyd is one of the most excited that he is getting married at last. Besides, he took this chance while his wife hadn't arrived yet, two days before Hailee and Vincent's wedding.

"Jeez…" Vincent rolled his eyes. 'How thick of a face these men are!'

That same day, led by Pitt and Carl, Hailee's knights and Vincent's cousins, help to set up the place where they will hold the bachelor party.

It will only be an all-boys Funtime, but no stripper because ever before, Vincent doesn't like that. He already quoted he would ditch his party if they hired one.

Back at the present, Hailee helps Vince, putting the tie around his neck.

"Are you sure I'm not needed to accompany you?"

"No need. I also won't know the gender until tomorrow night. There, it's done."

"Alright. Anyway, I already told the girls not to do tiring activities at your party."

"Okay. I know the girls would not let me join their games. They will only entertain me."

"Same to mine. Mom approved this as long as I won't join the biking competition and car race. All I should do is watch."

"Hmm… I actually wanted to ride in an air balloon and skydive."

It took a moment for Vince to process what Hailee had said.

He heard it clearly. Hailee wanted to do skydiving. Mostly, the couple does that during their honeymoon.

However, she is pregnant now. They have no plan for a honeymoon vacation after their wedding. He wondered if Hailee was fine with that.

"Wifey, I'm sorry if I cannot bring you to a special place to have our honeymoon."

Hailee smiled, listening to Vince's apology, which was not needed. She put her hands around his neck, lovingly muttered,

"What are you saying? There is only one special place I wanted to be in, and that is your heart."

Vince didn't notice that tears started falling from her eyes.

"You made me so happy. I couldn't wait to welcome our kids." Vince gently stroked his hand on Hailee's baby bump and said,

"I love you, Hailee Davies…"

Vincent bent his body to kiss Hailee's belly.

"Dad, love you guys."
