Chapter 195 - He Is Too High Maintenance

Hailey was chatting with Hansen when her phone rang. It was Vincent. She excused herself; she strides toward the floor-ceiling window to answer the call.

"Hubby?"

"Hi! How are you? Did you get lunch already?" asked Vince from the other line.

"I\'m fine! Um, I haven\'t eaten lunch yet, but I had my snack half an hour ago!" she replied cheerfully. It made her happy that Vince remained thoughtful as before since they were in an actual relationship.

"I\'m glad. Don\'t forget to eat soon," he reminded her, which she returned the reminder.

"Yes, I will. And you too! Don\'t forget to have dinner on time."

"I will," Vince replied—he went on. "Congratulations on the success of the store opening. Janise told me how grand it was."

"Thank you! I wished you were here with me," To share my success!

"I always wished that I\'ll be by your side all the time." Vince groaned. His voice is too husky, grumbling lovingly from the other line.

Who would have thought that it was an answered prayer? She is his boss!

He would have less worry that he could not bring Hailey while working in Dream City. Now, they could be together anytime they wanted.

"Wifey, tell me if you need anything. Although I asked Zayn to add more Metro City Police around your store, let me know if you face any problems. I heard the store was flooded with clients on its first day."

Hailey replied, "I will, hubby. Thank you. I am dropping off at the store before I head to Shen Tower for the branch office opening. I\'ll see what help we need." It flutters her heart.

From now on, she could share her daily life with Vince without worrying that accidentally he would uncover her true identity one day. She feels so great that she has no more secrets from him.

"Okay, Wifey. I know you were busy for the entire day. Please, message me tonight. I want to hear your voice again."

Hailey wipes the tears that escape from her eyes. Why is she becoming emotional? Is it because she\'s too stressed lately? Maybe it was the reason. All she wanted now was to be with Vince. Soon after Vince is done in Las Vegas, it is time to go back to Australia and settle things with Eva.

Well, Vincent should have got his divorce a long time ago if Liam didn\'t meddle in between them! That guy messes up with everything!

"I would love to, hubby. But isn\'t your bedtime by then?" she queried Vince with worry in her voice. She then heard his sexy laughs, which cause her heart to beat wildly inside her chest. So this must be what it feels like to be in love.

"It doesn\'t matter. I don\'t care to stay all night waiting for your call."

Ah, she would love to reward this man soon! From the bottom of her heart, she conveyed her feelings.

"I love you, Vincent Shen."

"I love you, too. Hailee Hillson Davies."

A smile parted her lips as tears flooded her eyes.

After the call, Hailey fixed herself to leave the hotel suite. She announced, "Let\'s go, brother Hanz!"

Hanz smiled, nodding at her. He was only listening to her conversation with her boyfriend. And to his observation, they have a good bond. If he is a reliable man? Then maybe he isn\'t so bad at all.

Walking down the hotel aisle, Bruce and two other knights follow them. In the lobby of that same floor, Keith meets them, and together, they take the elevator.

"I have two handsome CEOs on my side," Hailey jokes. Both Keith and Hansen laugh, along with the other five knights tailing them.

In the lobby, people could not help gaping at Hailey with awe. Recently, the city was bombarded with a revelation about this famous mistress in Metro City. It shocked everyone that this girl, insulted by many personally or publicly, was wealthier than most families in P Country High Society.

And even as they learned the truth, she would always be a mysterious girl in their eyes. Then, so suddenly, several gorgeous bodyguards appeared from nowhere in Metro City, which they had never seen before!

So in their mind is a question, \'Can there be another bomb of truth she\'ll throw at them?\'

She sure slaps everyone on their faces. That she isn\'t just an ordinary woman, but why does she only become someone\'s mistress?

"Is it because Vincent Shen married the reason she hides her identity?" The rumor has been spreading all over the city like wildfire that didn\'t make Hilda happy.

On the fifth floor of Metro City Garden, everyone stops breathing when a beautiful woman wearing an elegant office outfit of the day steps out of the lift.

Outside the elevator are handsome men lining up on both sides, escorting this stunning woman. They walk in sync, protecting her from all situations that would happen. But, after news came out of how wealthy she is, it does not surprise them anymore to see several bodyguards surrounding her.

Hailey walks straight to the store, but the media blocked their way. Instead, everyone wanted to throw questions at her.

"Miss Hillson, can you answer our question? Why did you hide your true identity?"

"Miss Hillson, how much is the jewelry set you designed for Madam Hilda Shen?"

"Can you tell us how much its prices are?" asked one reporter.

"Everyone would love to own the jewelry you designed. But, is it true that it costs two million US dollars?"

"Miss Hillson, please choose my question!"

Hailey sweeps her eyes to all the cameras pointed at her. She turned her head toward the direction where the last person she heard speak and gave her permission that made everyone shut up immediately to listen.

"Yes, go on."

This person came over and spoke.

"Miss Hillson, this question is regarding the set of jewelry you designed for President Shen\'s mother. Someone went to ask Mr. Shen\'s financial agent, but he denied that his boss spent two million US dollars to pay for the jewelry. So then it means that you did not charge Mr. Shen any amount. Is it because you are one of the DV Inc. owners?"

Everyone cannot take their eyes off her, waiting eagerly for her answer. They were all wondering what her response would be. Then, suddenly, that part of the mall fell silent, that they were holding even their breaths.

Soon Hailey smiled and looked at the reporters\' faces. Then, full of cheer, she answered…

"That set of jewelry had only cost me 3.5 Million US Dollars. It will take only one night for Mr. Shen to warm my bed. Have a good day, everyone."

Everyone dropped their mouth upon hearing her answer. They were trying to process its entire meaning; they believe that was not sarcasm nor a joke.

Indeed, 3.5 Million US Dollars is not something to joke around!

The media wanted to persuade Hailey, who was now entering the store, but the mall police blocked them. They have several questions, but from here on, they have to knock at heaven\'s door to get a piece of her with the status that she has.

M RESORT

Meanwhile, having lunch at the resort\'s Courtyard Restaurant, Jake, Lloyd, and most of Vincent\'s close friends glued their eyes to the big screen on the wall where the present happening in the city aired live.

The news also shocked them like everyone else. No wonder that woman is elegant and always looks stunning in any dresses she wore when Vincent brought her along with him.

They already have been noticing how classy and intelligent she is. Now the mysteries unravel! She\'s wealthy as hell!

"Dammit! You need 3.5 million US dollars to sleep with someone like Vincent Shen? No wonder he remained a virgin until this rich girl arrived! He\'s as expensive as this!" Jake blurted out.

"Take note, that was only for one night, bro!" one of their friends echoed. And the rest burst out laughing and continue gossiping about their friend of how lucky a man he is.

On the other side of the world, Vincent was astounded, gaping at Rubin, who burst out laughing in front of him. They were having a dinner meeting with Theo and the other men when Tim showed Rubin the current news from Metro City.

He knitted between his eyebrows as he glared at his assistant. "What is that, Timothy Cheng!?"

Instead of answering his boss, Tim lowered his head and continued to eat silently, suppressing his laughter.

"Damn! Someone like Vincent Shen is too high maintenance!" Rubin exclaimed amusingly.

"What is going on, Rubin?" It was Theo who queried. Then someone arrived and joined Rubin to laugh. "And even you, Matt?"

"Hey, Vincent Shen! Long time no see!"

"Agent Matthew Lawrence, nice to see you again." Vincent rose from his chair.

"Hey, congrats, Vincent!" said Matt as they were shaking hands and giving each other\'s back a pat. Then, Matt whispered, "Brother Shun is still deciding whether he will kill you with his own hands, or will I take the honor of beating you to death?"

Vincent gulped. He started bathing in a cold sweat. Soon after, Matt laughed on his stomach and said,

"That was only a joke, man! Brother Shun wanted to poke fun with you."

He knew it was! But he would not take that only as a joke! Not when the words are from the Mafia Emperor.

Hailey\'s cousin!
