Chapter 173 - DV Gem Asia Branch Launching (Five)

Escorted by Crissa and Bruce, Hailey followed them toward the elevator and went down to the lobby to wait for the car.

Hailey was walking toward the door; her phone rang. She takes out her phone from her purse and checks the caller; it was Vince. With a smile on her lips, she answers the call with joy.

"Hey! Are you done having dinner?" she asked.

"I was in the middle of it when Janise texted me."

"Oh…" she had an idea what Janise told Vince.

"So… Is mom nice to you now? Tell me if she insulted you. Don\'t keep it a secret to me." he said, and his voice was worried. Hailey could sense it.

"Silly. Don\'t worry. I have known your mom now. Even though she hates me, she does nothing scandalous in public. Your mom is more concerned about her image than making a scene, especially in front of the mass media which were everywhere."

"Do you think so?" It does not convince him yet as worries linger in his heart. He wants his mom to accept the woman he loves with all his heart.

Besides, he would literally worry if his mom does something to Hailey because he loves them both. He may choose Hailey over his mom, but she\'s still the woman that gives birth to him, and he\'s grateful for that.

Hailey replied to him, "Yes. So stop worrying, okay?"

"If that\'s the case, then I have to trust a woman\'s instinct," said Vince.

She giggled at Vince\'s remark. This guy is so thoughtful. She could not stop herself from falling in love with him over again.

"So, what dress mom chose for you?"

"Oh, I will send you some photos." Hailey ends the call, she sends a couple of selfie photos to Vince. Later on, she received a frowning emoji that made her laugh hard.

Vince phoned her again; he asked, "So, where are you now?"

"I was in the lobby toward the parking lot. I was waiting for the jewelry I wanted to wear to look suitable for this dress."

"Hmm. Did you wear a coat?"

"Ah…" she didn\'t think to wear one when the climate here in P Country is getting hotter.

"Why does mom choose that dress for you?" Vince groaned from the other line.

Once again, Hailey giggles at how Vince sounds so cute complaining now. Honestly, she\'s thankful that the dresses his mom chose for her to wear tonight are all beautiful. And the one she is wearing right now captivated her heart. It was a gorgeous evening gown.

"Hey, why are you complaining now? I\'ve worn more daring dresses during the parties." She sounded teasing, causing Vince to feel even more frustrated.

He reasons out, "I approved it because I was with you."

"But you have nothing to be jealous about. The attendees at the party are women," she explained with a smile across her face. Vince is too cute; she wants to pinch his face.

"Hm. Okay..." It looks like he has to give up being childish.

Anyway, there\'s nothing wrong with the dress. She was too beautiful; he wanted to hide her from everyone, especially from the men which the media was all over the place of the venue.

Wait… Is he becoming greedy now? But he admits how jealous he is. But Hailey deserves to have a life as well, even if she\'s tied to him.

Hailey heard when Vince sighs helplessly. Her smile never disappears on her lips, thinking how cute he is and wishing he is in front of her to give a sweet and steamy kiss on his lips.

However, the smile on her lips disappears when she notices the man outside. She sees a vehicle stopped, but she ignored that person as she was immersed in talking with Vince.

Now the guy is leaning on his car, gazing at her. Hailey sharpened her glare, meeting the man\'s gaze, who pursed his lips into a sweet smile. \'Liam!\'

"Wifey, are you there? What\'s wrong?"

Vince\'s sweet, worried voice snaps her back to her senses. She cleared her throat and hummed. "Hmm… I\'m still here. I\'m sorry. The valet is here, so I have to go soon."

"Okay. Then, I should end this call. Please enjoy yourself at the party. I might send mom a message."

Hailey got worried about what he said. It worries her if Vince would say something that angers his mom even more. "Please tell me you\'re not planning to send her a warning message or something?"

"Don\'t worry. I will only thank her."

She breathes with relief. She actually doesn\'t want their relationship to hurt because of her. "I\'m happy then. She\'s still your mom, you know."

"If only mom knew how incredible you are. She has no reason to hate you just because some woman is holding my last name, and you aren\'t."

That stunned her. Then tears began forming in the corner of her eyes, and she did everything to push them back. Even though it was tears of happiness, she wants to look beautiful tonight, so she doesn\'t intend to ruin her make-up.

"Wifey? Was my reception bad? Are you losing the connection?" asked Vince when she didn\'t reply right away.

"I could hear you clearly. It\'s just that..." she\'s very emotional at the moment. A mix of emotions that overwhelm her heart flooded her chest.

"Wait… Why is your voice shaky? Are you crying? Did you not like what I said?" Vince asked, still worried and restless from the other line.

"No. In fact, you said something that made me happy." She told Vince to stop wondering. This man is adorable! He has no idea that he just made an indirect proposal of marriage to her!

"Really?" Vince fell silent to ponder. He tried to recall the words he told Hailey. He\'s trying to figure out which one made her happy that she wanted to cry at the same time.

"Can you tell me which one I said that made you happy?" Later, he asked curiously. "I want to say it properly then."

"You are cute." Hailey giggles, but Vince frowned. He\'s kind of nervous at the moment. Not long, Hailey speaks again. "You, saying that your mom should not hate me just because I didn\'t hold your surname, but another woman has it. You have no idea; that sounds like an indirect proposal to me."

"Oh…"

Hailey holds her breath. Vince fell silent. And it worries her if she did it right. Maybe she should not mention it at all and let it be?

She\'s curious about what Vince was thinking right now. But Liam also steals her attention.

He\'s still outside, and Vince\'s Maybach that will take her to the Red Carpet has arrived.

She needs the knights.
