His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 323 - Madam Hilda Shen's Birthday Party (Three)

Loud applause greeted Hilda as she entered the hall with Frederick. She held her husband's arm, smiling and nodding at her family, in-laws, and guests.

Frederick led her toward the stage. Hilda lifted her skirt, climbed the stairs carefully with her Jeremy Blocks gold yellow stiletto with genuine gemstone around it.

Hilda stood in the middle of the stage, then delivered her speech, king everyone for coming tonight.

And in her speech, it was specially mentioned by the Davies and Hillson family.

When Hilda mentioned Allen and Andre Hillson as Hailee's mom's immediate family, everyone had the conclusion...

Hailee is using her mom's surname to hide her true identity as Hailee Davies. Now they knew her secret entirely.

All these years, she pretended to be just an ordinary girl named Hailey Hillson, not for everyone to know who she was.

Until now, the entire clan of Shen and Lopez was still amazed how Vincent was able to capture the heart of someone like Hailee Davies.

To look back, they started in a forbidden relationship. However, later the truth came out that Eva has a relationship with different men and is even associated with an international terrorist named Prince Liam Huo.

Now that Hailee's name is cleared out of being a mistress and Vincent was freed from the arranged marriage, they all think that the two of them deserve to tie the knot.

They all are happy for Vincent.

As an aloof man who never goes on dates and never heard of him flirting with someone, Vincent shows how romantic a guy he is. Tonight, they've witnessed how attentive and caring a husband he was.

He makes sure that Hailee is comfortable. He always supported her, even just to sit down or get up. Tonight, they have indeed seen a different side to Vincent.

Then, they learned she was pregnant with three babies. So they believed Vincent's overprotection is not an exaggeration but a valid reason he must worry all the time.

"Everyone, before I closed this speech... I have a special announcement. You are invited to Vincent and Hailee's grand wedding on August 28, 2026, at Dream City, Australia."

Upon hearing this great news, the hall filled with applause. Everyone was elated, and excitement crept to their hearts to attend the wedding of the millennium.

At that very moment, everyone started contacting famous designers to design a special gown for the grand wedding.

After Hilda ends her speech, the male host invites her toward her cake to blow the candle. The female host was led by her very own niece, a famous actress who sings Happy Birthday.

Hilda closed her eyes to mutter her wishes, then she blew out the candles, and everyone greeted her with a happy birthday. Officially, Hilda's birthday celebration has started.

Everyone went to their tables and sat down. Several servers brought out the food and placed them on the table.

At the main table, the Davies and Hillson family shared the table with Frederick and Hilda.

Hailee had enjoyed the food, as everything is what she craves in the passing days. At first, she felt sorry for them sharing her table as they forced her to eat what she liked to eat tonight…

No tomato and tomato sauce dishes.

Their table was purposely away from the others so that her nose would miss the food odor that would trigger her nausea, and everyone was notified about this.

"Mom. Thank you for considering my pregnancy." said Hailee to Hilda, her eyes shifted to her companion to say, "I am really feeling guilty that you guys have to eat not-so-special food."

"What were you saying, princess? The food is delicious!" said Jacob, and he was telling the truth. "The chef is using another method, am I right?"

This made Hilda's night even more pleasant to hear Jacob's praise.

And so, Hilda pursed her lips and said proudly, "It was Sheena's husband who especially prepared these foods for Hailee. Since Hailee had food she didn't like during her pregnancy; my son-in-law earnestly studied how he could still make the food savory even with fewer spices and without tomato sauce."

Hailee contorted a smile on her lips upon sensing the proudness in Hilda's tone. Vincent shared with her how Sheena's husband, Stephen, wasn't accepted by their mom. But now, it was apparent that her impression had changed, and she fully accepted Stephen.

After dinner, Hailee enjoyed the dessert that was specially prepared for her. Vincent, seated next to Hailee, leaned over and licked the corner of her mouth.

Hailee was stunned for a moment. Then she recovers fast as she figures out why Vincent has to do that.

Although they were in an intimate relationship, she still would blush if Vincent pulled that kind of stunt.

She didn't mind that they would kiss in front of their parents. But Vincent licks the corner of her mouth!

"You had something on your mouth, so I have to clean it," Vincent explains. Ultimately, she understood. However, still embarrassing Vincent being this bold in front of everyone!

The entire night went well. Hilda actually did not remain at their table but mingle with her cousins. Frederick takes Jacob to meet the elders of both clans. Vincent and Hailee, on the other hand, went to meet their relatives.

Hailee was still in a daze, interacting with everyone. Indeed, the Lopez family is too big, and she tried to remember everyone's names.

After she meets everyone, Hailee tells Vincent that she will go to her friends' table. Vincent didn't stop her, as he also noticed that she was tired now.

"Hey! What are you doing here on the corner?" Hailee asked Geoffrey after she noticed him went to isolation.

"Hi, Hail. I am trying to contact my assistant about an important contract." Geoffrey explains with a smile.

"I see. You were still working, huh?" said Hailee.

Geoffrey smiled. He pondered that he had to bury himself to work, as it was only his way of relieving himself from heartache. Of course, it was because of Hailee. But he already accepted that she already belonged to someone else, and he would never have her himself.

Geoffrey and Hailee chatted when his phone rang. He looked at his phone, and it was his assistant.

"Hail, I have to answer this in a quiet place."

"Okay." Hailee nodded and smiled. She watches Geoffrey's receding back, disappearing in her sight. In her mind, she prayed for Geoffrey to meet the girl that was destined for him.

Meanwhile, Geoffrey was in a hurry to take a right turn in the hallway. He didn't notice that a woman was taking a turn to her left…
