His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 67 - Her Heart's Desire

Vincent politely greeted his parents. He is curious about what makes them come to the resort. He thinks about the news, but he is also confident that his parents won't display their anger in public but deal with it in silence.

His parents, Fred and Hilda Shen, regularly come to the Country Club to meet their wealthy friends and business partners. However, it became rare after he had an affair with Hailey.

Vince smiled at his parents. He is waiting for them to return the greetings or say a word.

"Son, I'm glad you are still here." It was Fred who first spoke. He glanced at his wife, who remained silent, and not greeting their son. Hilda only snubs them.

"Yes, dad. We stayed late last night, and I'm not capable of driving us home," he explained to his parents.

However, listening to her son, Hilda could not help scoff and twitching her mouth. Fred is giving her warning stares.

And because of that, something infuriated inside her. 'I was the villain once again!'

Vince glanced at Hailey apologetically. He also presses her hand and tightens his hold.

"Vincent, can we talk to you?" Hilda asked her son in a plain voice.

"Mom..."

"It's a quick talk," Hilda assures her son. She flashes a glare at Hailey to scan the girl.

Hailey is wearing a halter dress that doesn't require a brassiere. She only wore a slipper, but she looks elegant and gorgeous. And her naturally wavy Chestnut Brown hair color beautifully rested on her back.

Hilda withdraws her gaze at Hailey; she looks up at her son, waiting for his response.

Hilda doesn't want her to be present in that talk. It is obvious to Hailey, and she won't make it complicated and unpleasant for all of them when the lobby is filled with guests watching a drama play.

Hailey slightly pulled Vince's hand, and she uttered, "Hey! Give me the car keys, and I will start up the car while you are talking to your parents."

Vince didn't move and stand still on his feet. He shifted his gaze between his parents.

"I will visit you guys tomorrow. Hailey and I have to go to the office as soon as possible. I scheduled a meeting today," Vince informed his parents. He knew it would annoy his mother. But he doesn't want anyone to humiliate Hailey in public, even if it is his very own mother.

It didn't please Hilda; however, she could not throw a fret in front of everyone. She smiled plainly, and good thing that before she could open her mouth, her husband stole her awkward moment.

"All right, son! See you tomorrow, then! Your mom needs to prepare for the wedding. Her stylist is already waiting in our suite," said Fred. He is patting his wife's back to walk.

Before they could take five steps, Fred turned around and said in a loud voice, "Please, relay my apologies to the Board."

"I will, dad. Have a great time, mom!"

Hilda turned her head sideways; she nodded at her son before she resumed walking. Great timing, she spotted the Vice President of the P Country. She hurried her steps and greeted her friend.

She had a big smile on her face. So everyone's a little confused about what happens and curious about what they spoke about just now.

They were waiting for a big drama. However, it disappoints them that it didn't happen today. Everyone in Metro City knew Hilda despises Vincent's girlfriend, as she won't tolerate her son's affair.

And they witness that Hilda only ignores her son's girlfriend. Still, there are no changes. She was still not in favor of the affair.

Meanwhile, Vince and Hailey resume walking and head to the parking lot.

She looked up at Vince and stared at his handsome face. Honestly, her heart didn't stop fluttering inside her chest.

"Is something dirt on my handsome face?" asked Vince.

Hailey dropped her mouth open. Vince's reaction to her stares shocks her. Ever since the kiss this morning, Vince is becoming overly shameless in front of her!

Vince turned his head and lowered his gaze, winking at her. With this, Hailey burst out laughing.

It didn't come to her mind that Vincent would be this shameless around her. Well, Vince is incredible that time they've talked on the stairs and have coffee!

But after that encounter, Vince was serious, and the following day she met him again. He is formally treating her. And she has no complaint because Vince was also polite to her.

And when they live together, she got to know him better. Now, he is showing his cool side.

"Um... Thank you, by the way, for standing up for me," she told Vince. The truth is, she thought that Vince would give in to his mother. But he didn't. Instead, he shows his parents that he is choosing her.

"Why, thank you? You can kiss me to show your gratitude," said Vince. He leaned over and brought his face closer to Hailey.

Dumbfounded, Hailey dropped her jaw on the ground. 'He has done it again! He is too shameless now!'

But she decides to play along if it's still about the agreement they signed on. At the moment, she wanted to forget anything else but listen to her heart's desire.

Hailey lifted her chin. Although she is tall, it needs her to tiptoe to reach Vince's forehead. She planted a kiss and then walked ahead of Vince.

"Wait! That's not a kiss!" Vince complains, following behind Hailey.

"That was a kiss!" she replied without turning around to face Vince. Well, she's hiding her playful smile; that is why she doesn't want to look at him.

"That's a grandma kiss! And you are not my grandma!"

Hailey could not hold it anymore. She burst out laughing, and it hurts her stomach. Vince is acting cutely now, and it amuses her. She likes this kind of side of him.

Later, Vince catches her up. And instantly, his arms fetched her waist, and she landed on his broad chest. He smelled nice. Hailey mused between her dazing head.

She had no chance to speak up or raise a protest when Vince claimed her lips and kissed her once again.

Hailey sighs inwardly. She opened her mouth and responded to the kiss.
