Chapter 294 - ASSASINATION (Three)

Kelly left to search for Pitt to tell the guy to pick up Chester in Dream City. With the maids\' help, she found the guy joining the food taste.

"You have such a thick face, Pitterson Cha!" Kelly scolded the guy after putting the whole mousse cake in his mouth. "You\'re already eating the dessert without even trying the starting course!"

"What? I\'m hungry. I\'m not here for food-tasting, but to eat!" Pitt dug the main course dishes, completely ignoring Kelly\'s fierce gaze at him.

"Get out! Go and pick up Chester! Hailee would like to stir-fry noodles for lunch!" Kelly was like a dragon puffing fire at him.

Pitt could only curl his mouth. He cannot counter Kelly but scorn inwardly. If Hailee does not make the request, there\'s no way he would follow this woman\'s order.

"You know what? With your attitude? You will never find a boyfriend." It should be a tease, but Kelly snaps him immediately.

"I don\'t need a boyfriend! Humph!" Kelly folded her arms above her chest, which heaving up and down from annoyance.

Watching the bickering from the sideline, Sheena was curious not to ask. "Isn\'t Chester the Chief Officer of the Innovative Department in Hailee\'s company?"

Sheena remembers him well because he\'s Chinese like her, and the rest of the guys are from other races. Like Pitt and Hansen, they were Korean. James is a mixed Japanese and Aussie mother. Tom Morris is Irish, then Alfie Rinaldi is Italian, and Leo Grubber is mixed German.

Hailee\'s knights are actually from all around the world, which is very impressive. Some of them are British, French, and African descendants. She ensures to have a connection from all over the world, something that she admired her future sister-in-law.

Sheena asks; both Kelly and Pitt nodded at her.

"Would Hailee only prefer his cooking? Mom made stir fry noodles, and it was good." Deanna chimed in.

"Oh. Is it, Auntie? Maybe it will save us more time?" Kelly was excited upon hearing this.

On the other hand, Hilda couldn\'t believe her two daughters would embarrass her like this. She may be good at cooking, but she doesn\'t do it often anymore. Besides, she was only cooking for Fred and Vincent, which none anymore after Vincent moved out from their mansion.

The father and son prefer homemade food, even though they often have lunch or dinner meetings with their business partners and clients. But thinking Hailee would eat it, she had less confidence if she would like it.

In the end, Hilda was encouraged to make stir-fry noodles with the help of Sheena and Deana. Hailee was actually happy after she learned about it. She misses her mom and grandmother\'s cooking, so she looks forward to Vince\'s mom\'s cooking.

Hailee was in a better mood. She called her nannies to prepare her bath. She soaked in the warm water for fifteen minutes using the essential oil product from her cosmetic company.

The essential oils both in bath and application on the body after showering for pregnant women are one of many skin care products her company was producing over a couple of years. And she never thought she could use the new products before she could launch them to the world.

After her bath, Hailee was putting on light makeup to cover her slight paleness. She plans to have a video call with Vince, and she doesn\'t want to make him worry.

Sitting on a French lounge chaise inside her bedroom, she sorted out some names on her iPad when Mrs. Brown entered the room to notify her of the arrival of her cousin.

Hailee lifted her head, placed her iPad on the coffee table, then hurried to get up from the French chaise.

"He\'s here?" she likely murmured to herself; following behind her is Mrs. Brown.

"Aye, princess."

Hailee had a hurried step, headed to the Tea Room, where the butler escorted Prince Alex to wait for the princess.

Alex was standing near the French window, roaming his eyes to the courtyard. It\'s been a while since the last time he came here because often, he was only staying in Sydney or in Northern Australia, where he owned a penthouse.

"Alex!"

A sweet voice calling his name, Alex turned around with a broad sweet smile across his handsome face. "Hello, beautiful princess!"

He opened his arms wide, locked Hailee inside his arms, who delightedly embraced him back.

"I missed you!" Hailee said. She even tightened her hug.

"I missed you too." Alex placed a light kiss on her forehead. "How are you? I haven\'t heard from you anymore. Why is that?"

Alex parted their body to look at her face. He lifted his right arm to brush her cheeks. "You look even more beautiful now. It must be your pregnancy, right?"

"Oh. You knew already?" Hailee isn\'t surprised if Alex would hear about it, but she is curious about where he learned about it.

"Yup. Hector told me." Alex replied. He guided Hailey to sit on the nearby loveseat. "And he said, you had a difficult one."

Hailee nodded; she remained to hug Alex. "Yeah. And I\'m so sad their daddy wasn\'t here."

"Anyway… What brought you here without notifying me?"

"That would not be surprising if I announce my arrival." Alex poked Hailee\'s nose that made her giggle. She lifted her arm to scratch her nose, which Alex helped her rub.

"Are you here to congratulate me? You should be! I\'m getting married, and I am expecting now!" There is proudness in her voice. Alex couldn\'t help chuckling.

"Yeah. It is something to celebrate. Anyway, this is Uncle Alessandro\'s original plan. He wants me to comfort you if he successfully executes your lover."

Hailee dropped her jaw, followed by shock exhibits on her face while yelling out, "Uncle Alessandro plotted an assassination against Vincent?"

Alex nodded, a proud smile curled up his lips. "Yeah. And as your knight. It is my duty to protect your lover."

Hailee sighs with relief. She threw her arms around his waist and murmured, "Thank you."

She need not guess. Alex must have already reported to Shun about her uncle wanting her future husband dead.

A grim look is lingering on her face as the pupils of her eyes shrunk for about ten seconds before she softens her gaze. An inexplicable emotion surging in her chest. For all people, those who are blood-related to her, who would dare to harm Vincent.

Even the Elder from the High Royal Family carried out a plan against her happiness. Hailee would not let this off. She will allow no one to harm Vincent, even his family. They are also her family now, and she knows her uncle is just one who wishes for her power and influence in this world.

"Alexander!"

At the door, Jacob made giant strides toward them. Hailee could already guess that Alex notified her dad about his distant cousin\'s plot.

"Uncle Jacob…" Alex loosened his embrace from Hailee\'s body. He stood up from the seat to hug Jacob as a greeting.

Jacob glanced at his daughter and said, "Princess, I wanted to speak to Alex in private."

"Sure, dad." Hailee nodded after she placed a kiss on her dad\'s cheek.

"Let\'s go to my study," Jacob led the way out of the door, then headed to the second floor of the mansion.

Now that she was left alone, Hailee called Mrs. Brown to get her cellphone she left in her bedroom. Once she had it, she immediately dialed a particular contact.

"Hello, George?"
