Chapter 287 - Not Anymore

The following morning, Vince was preparing to attend the Davies Group contractors and business partners. He was fixing his tie when Hailee woke up and ran to the bathroom.

He followed her immediately to comfort her, rubbing her back while she continued puking.

It cannot paint on his face how worried he was when Hailee began throwing up in the washbasin, but nothing is coming out.

Hailee breathes in, washes her face, then brushes her teeth. Vince handed her a glass of drinking water. She emptied it in one go, then thanked Vince afterward.

He gets a clean face towel at the drawer under the washbasin, then carefully patting the fabric on her face.

"Thank you, hubby." She forced a smile, but sadness flashed in her eyes. She felt weak early in the morning, and then her stomach churned up.

Watching Vince preparing to attend the Board meeting, she felt sad that she couldn\'t help him by even putting a tie around the collar of his shirt.

They were supposed to go together, but she started having morning sickness, had fatigue, and a bit of headache.

Vince helps her sit on the bed. He walks toward her closet and pulls out a dress for her. She was touched by how attentive he was to her.

She placed a warm kiss on his lips before she changed her nightie into comfortable house clothes.

"The chef is preparing breakfast now. Do you want anything?"

Hearing Vince, she couldn\'t help but pout at herself. She is supposed to make breakfast for him.

Watching her sour face, Vince understood why she\'s having an awful morning. This time around, she would happily make breakfast for them.

"Let\'s go…." Vince kissed her forehead, then helped her from getting up on the bed. He was holding her so gently like she was fragile porcelain. "Where do you want to eat? Should we go to the kitchen, or do you want to rest on the sofa?"

Hailee smiled that even to this, Vince was paying attention. She felt uncomfortable, and so she preferred the sofa to rest her back.

Mrs. Brown heard the princess\' bedroom door open; she gathered all the food the chef prepared, placed them into a tray, then brought them to the living room to set up the coffee table.

Hailee stared at the large bowl of soup placed in the middle of the table. She observes her appetite if she doesn\'t feel bad.

The aroma of the soup reaches her nostrils. She was OK with it, and she doesn\'t feel like puking.

"Do you want the soup?" Vince asked. He was cautious as well for the food that triggers her nausea.

Vince picked up the soup bowl, then filled it with the soup. He carefully placed it on the saucer plate, then gave it to Hailee.

She cautiously holds the saucer plate in one hand, then the soup spoon in her other hand, carefully sipping the hot liquid.

Vince places the green leafy vegetables added to the soup on Hailee\'s plate. He asked, "How about the chicken meat?"

Hailee shook her head but pointed at the bacon on the platter.

"I want it on the toasted bread and then mayo and a lot of cheese then lettuce."

Vince smiled, brushing her face before he hurriedly made Hailer a bacon sandwich, which she was slowly munching. She looks at Vince, urging him to eat as well.

"You don\'t have to worry a lot about me, okay? I\'ll call the girls to accompany me now. You should have finished having breakfast, then gone to the meeting."

Vince was hesitant to leave her. He\'s worried sick. He was actually on the verge of suggesting to go to the hospital. But Hailee is tired of staying in that place.

He didn\'t leave until the girls came over, and Doctor Thomas, staying on the second floor of that apartment. He was on call 24/7...

Jacob wanted to ensure that his daughter gets all the attention she needed for her pregnancy. When Marlyn died, his heart was so brokenhearted for a reason he didn\'t notice she was carrying their second child.

She died not just because of the accident and having a miscarriage; she lost so much blood. That\'s why he is freaking out that now his daughter got pregnant.

When Jacob saw Vincent stepping into the conference room, he didn\'t hide his concern. Hailee had texted him five minutes ago that Vincent would be late.

She was not feeling well, and he helped her eat breakfast and accompany her until the girls came over. Anyway, Gigi was at Tom\'s unit, just below their floor. And Kelly was next door, staying at Bryan\'s apartment unit.

Every time Hailee stayed in Dream City, Bryan would be there to do things for her, even preparing her breakfast or knocking on her bedroom door to wake her up, reminding her that it was time to get ready for their very early board meeting.

Yes. Bryan was just next door. Although Kelly wanted to beat him up, she was still occupying her cousin\'s apartment unit since Bryan was in the US at the moment to take care of other things.

Yup... Bryan is heartbroken with the reality that he is no longer the man standing and staying on her side but someone else.

Jacob blinks his eyes, waiting for Vincent to come close to him, to ask a question. The moment Vincent stop at his side, he immediately cast his queries.

"How was my daughter? Why did you come? Isn\'t you must stay with her?"

Vincent is already ten minutes late to the scheduled time of the company meeting. At this moment, he wanted to skip the meeting to accompany his daughter. But he pushes it for another fifteen minutes for him to join them.

If it were him to ask, he prefers Vincent to watch his daughter. Then, what Vincent replied to him made him somewhat happy. His daughter is becoming even more responsible. If before she was bothering the boys to leave their work to accompany her somewhere, she suddenly wants to go…

But now, even if she was in a difficult situation, she didn\'t want Vincent to slack off for her sake. His daughter understood Vincent was not just one of her contractors and architect, but Vincent holding a new role as her husband.

He somewhat feels proud that his daughter put a lot more thought into what is best to maintain professionalism and a good relationship in her company.

Then, before Vincent replied to his future father-in-law, he swept his gaze to the entire room with apologetic eyes. He then said to Jacob,

"Dr. Thomas is attending her now, Sir. I don\'t want to leave her side, but she urges me to take part in the meeting on her behalf. I\'m sorry for delaying the meeting."

Everyone nodded at him. Since the CEO is pregnant and her lover is one of her contractors, they could only wait patiently.

Meanwhile, the executives could only glance in his direction. Since Hailee had her boyfriend, a fiance, and a future husband, they have to control the urge of rushing toward her side to take care of her, like when she has a fever or has flu and has no appetite to eat with anything.

However, everything had changed already. There is now someone she would rather be with to comfort and pamper her…

That place is no longer theirs….

And they have to accept the truth that for her, they are not her best men anymore.
