Chapter 116 - He Would Not Disagree

The men keenly eyed Hailey with curiosity. Not only that, their forehead curled up with confusion.

\'Who could be this person?\'

They were intrigued as the song Hailey uses a ringtone to this person is a Love Song, contrary to what she prefers, the rock songs from her favorite band.

"That\'s all for today. I will talk to each one of you regarding your reports," said Hailey. She then picks up her cellphone and excuses herself. "I need to answer this."

Jacob, who is seated across from his daughter, is observing her intently. And everyone saw that glint in her eyes upon walking away.

The men rendered speechlessly. They were shocked that Hailey just dismissed them like that.

It was the first time she did this during their meetings; even Kelly, Candice, or Faith called her. She will return the call after their discussion.

But this time, she hurried to answer a call.

The men, including Jacob, curiously glance in Hailey\'s direction. She went to her desk but remained standing near her glass window and talking in a low voice to whoever was on the other line.

"Hey, how was it? Are you ready?"

It was what they heard. Although they are used to hearing her sweet voice, this time, the warmth in it is like no other.

Hailey is gazing out at the building across her office. Her lips parted into a broad smile when she recognized the man on the second floor of the cafeteria.

Although she could not see his handsome face because she was on a higher floor, his silhouette is undeniable that it was him; and her heart is saying it so.

Meanwhile, the more they eavesdrop, the more Hailey\'s voice getting sweeter.

Jacob swept his eyes to the men in front of him; it is too evident that everyone listened to his daughter\'s conversation.

"Ahem!" Jacob pretended to cough. Once he clears his throat, he utters. "Lunch is served. You boys, go ahead. I will have lunch with Hailey here in the office, so ask the chefs to deliver our food. I\'ll see you all during the presentation."

Jacob sat up from his chair and walked toward the door. The men had no more reason to stay in the President\'s office but followed the chairman.

Hailey was immersed in talking on the other line. She turned her head after hearing the door closing in. She realizes that everyone finally leaves. She sighed with relief and sat in her chair.

"So, did you have lunch now? It was noon."

Vince replied, "Yes. Tim volunteered to get our food, so I have a chance to make this call."

"Ah. Tim\'s salary should have a raise soon. He\'s doing a great job lately," she suggested.

"Hm... I might do that." Vince chuckled, and he also heard Hailey\'s sweet laugh.

Listening to her giggles, a desire crept in his chest. He wanted to kiss her and hug her to seek strength.

"Good luck with your presentation," said Hailey afterward.

"Thank you. I know you are cheering for me, so I am fine now."

"You are very talented, Vince. They will surely be impressed by you." Hailey told Vince with sincerity in her voice.

It was the moment that the door opened. The person who wanted to step inside retreated and listen further. But Hailey\'s voice was getting inaudible, soon unable to understand it anymore, and so, this person decided to shut the door.

A few more exchanging sweet words, Vince has to hang up the call as Tim returns with a tray full of food.

"I\'ll get you a bottled water, boss," said Tim, who quickly left before his boss could answer.

Vince shook his head. Hailey was right. Tim deserves to raise his salary as he did more things than was supposed to be his job.

Back in Hailey\'s office, she heard soft knocks. She raised her head to see the person entering the door.

"Princess, our food is here! Let\'s eat!"

"Okay, dad!" Hailey sat up from her chair and strode toward the coffee table where the food was arranged.

Seated across from each other, Jacob was ecstatic to ask a few questions, and Hailey answered them carefully. She\'s glad that her dad didn\'t ask difficult questions that she has no answer to.

"I heard that the DV Gems is expanding its shops. Congratulations, Princess."

"Thank you, dad! Our business partners have been bringing up about it these past months, so I have to leave soon, dad."

Jacob remains silent. He wanted to protest but maybe letting his daughter working on her other company is a big help for her to move on completely.

Hailey was smiling, and the glow in her eyes never disappeared. In the end, Jacob nodded as a response. He would not insist anymore for his daughter to remain in Australia.

Davies-Varghese Jewelry is Hailey\'s ornaments company based in Dubai with the partnership of Kelly Varghese.

Kelly is the President and the head designer of their jewelry industry. In this passing year, they started to accept personalized designs by their wealthy clients, and their business partners wanted to expand worldwide.

Aside from Davies Group, his daughter Hailey is a self-made millionaire. If she wanted to focus on her jewelry business, he wouldn\'t stop her from leaving again.

"Don\'t forget to call me at least so that I wouldn\'t worry a lot. Okay?"

Hailey smiled at his dad. She replied, "I\'ll frequently call you dad, and that\'s for sure!"

She could do that since Vince will often stay in Australia, and so she will be alone in the penthouse most of the time.

"Dad, I am also working on the hiring process for our hotels, restaurants, and mall service crews. I already found the best workers, so I\'m going to visit the country myself to look for a trusted agency to work with."

"Hmm... Are you going alone?"

"Tom will be there, and Keith Cole!" she answered.

Jacob raises his head. He creases his forehead, indicating that he was trying to remember something. "Isn\'t President Vincent Shen from the country where Keith lives?"

"Yeah! What a coincidence! I\'m asking his wife\'s father to introduce me to a trusted agency. He is a Congressman, so he knew which legal agency we could partner with." Hailey was very careful explaining not to mention unnecessary information about P Country.

"Okay. If you think that we could hire a world-class crew from there, then up to you, Princess."

"Yes! I already made an investigation, dad! I assured you their training is world-class." She sighs with relief. It made her happy that her dad didn\'t ask further like the type of him.

In the past, she needed the boys to help so that her dad would not ask so many questions.

On the other hand, Jacob keeps nodding while listening to his daughter. He could not make any remark, but joy filled his heart.

Seeing his daughter was this happy, he could not stop her plans but trust her; as long as she enjoyed whatever she\'s working on at the moment, he would not disagree with her plans.

Even though his daughter was in the process of mending her broken heart, she never stops fulfilling her dreams.

Jacob stretches his arm to reach Hailey\'s hand. He said, "I\'m so proud of you, Princess."

"Thank you, dad." Hailey quickly hid the guilt that flashed in her eyes as her heart sighed.

\'Dad, I\'m sorry. I hope you\'ll forgive your daughter once you learn the truth.\'

She prayed for things to be okay soon.

By the afternoon, Hailey was a little uneasy. She was keenly watching down below of her building as cars one by one arrived.

Finally, it is about time for Vincent\'s presentation. At the moment, Vince and Tim were setting up the Conference Room with the help of Helen and Maine.

Vincent shook his head, watching his assistant placing folders on the tables when the two secretaries are glued around Tim.

But Vincent was pretty relieved that these women are taking a distance from him. His life is much easier in that way.

He doesn\'t want to deal with any women who attempt to flirt with him while working on his projects here in Dream City. Besides, he doesn\'t want Hailey to get jealous or misunderstood anything.

At the moment, Tim was inside in a cooking pressure instead as he had to treat the two women politely.

If he didn\'t meet his childhood sweetheart yesterday, he wouldn\'t be this tense but have the enthusiasts flirting with women mindlessly.

Everything is ready. It is only a matter of time, and the executives, along with the Board of Investors, had all arrived.

"Jacob, is it true that Hailey came back already?"

Vincent raised his head upon hearing the conversation with the chairman and a group of middle-aged men. If he heard correctly, they were talking about the chairman\'s daughter.

\'So the Lady Boss is here?!\'

But one thing intrigued him. Is the Lady Boss\' name is Hailey as well?

Vince shrugged his curiosity. There are thousands of Hailey in the world. He thought to himself and observed further. He then found out that few of these Board of Investors are the executive\'s fathers.

And so, Vince mumbled to himself...

\'So, they are not just a bunch of an All-Men Executive or employees of Davies Group. They are also a co-owner of Dream City.\'
