Chapter 243 - He Appeared
Vince could feel those burning stares in his direction. He could tell that their attention is toward him as these people recognized the woman he was with. And everyone is sizing him up.
However, he only ignored the crowd. It is better to continue flirting with Hailey than caring about their presence.
Vince clasped Hailey's hands. He brought one hand to his lips and planted tiny kisses on the back of her palm.
He doesn't care what they would think of him. But he will show how much he's in love with this girl and not because of who she is.
"I love you."
He whispered into Hailey's ear; the girl lifted her gaze and kissed his lips. She is also aware of the crowd, but she didn't owe them an explanation.
She is simply a girl who wants to fall in love with the right man. So, people have no right to doubt Vince or question him as her lover.
After another five minutes that passed, Ray sends a plate of sliced fruits to their table. Vince is feeding Hailey when he receives a message from his dad. He read them;
"Son, Howie Gu had confessed. Eva is pregnant with his child after she undergoes an insemination procedure. Also, Zenaida claimed it was true and told us that Eva was in Sydney. Why don't you look for her? It's your chance to talk to her about your divorce, son."
Vince fell in deep thought. Eva is with Bryan now. According to Hailey, she is pregnant, but she believes it wasn't Bryan's child.
Then Hailey is right.
However, Eva is using her pregnancy to keep Bryan from going back to Hailey.
He couldn't believe that Eva was this kind of woman. Although it was wrong, what she did makes Hailey insanely cling to him instead.
Vince doesn't know whether to feel pity for Eva, or he should laugh out loud. His nominal wife destroyed the relationship of the girl he had dreamed of for years. Now, because of the heartbreak, Eva did to Hailey, she was lead toward him.
He started to think of awarding her by letting off her. Sometimes, it made him ponder how to use Eva. Maybe he should ride in her drama and takes this opportunity. In one condition, she must make sure to keep Bryan away from Hailey. However...
How dare these people have the guts to play the Shen? Do they think he will not avenge for what they've done? He will make sure these people will walk without a head on their bodies!
Vince looked at Hailey. The girl beside him seemed so innocent. She appeared to be a different person from other days, whose ready to kill someone to protect her loved ones.
But at this moment, the only concern she has is to feed the life growing inside her. She cares nothing more but for them to become a family.
And he will assure to give her the title of being Mrs. Shen and the one and only mother of his children.
After a brief thought, Vince decided to phone his dad. "Wifey... There is an important matter that I need to discuss with dad. I need to phone him."
"Okay, hubby." She nodded while keeping her mouth full of fruits.
Vince smiled. He placed a kiss on her forehead before he went outside and headed to the parking lot to have a private talk with his dad.
"Hello, dad? Yes. I know Eva is in Sydney."
"Oh. Did someone else tell you about this?" asked Fred.
Vince replied to his dad, "I continue investigating her whereabouts. And I was actually in Sydney to meet her."
"I see. So, it's your plan already."
"Yes, dad. I want her to sign the divorce agreement as soon as possible. After everything her family did to me, the more I wanted to get it done sooner."
"Okay. By the way, son. Could it be possible that you can bring Eva back to Metro City? She needs to be investigated as well. Or maybe she has to face some punishment and be convicted for a few years."
Vince rendered his silence. He pondered how he could force Eva to go back to P Country after signing the divorce agreement.
"Son, if you can't convince her, then I better send authorities to get Eva and escort her back to Metro City. What do you think?"
Vince contemplated that. And he thinks it's the best plan to make Eva go back to Metro City.
"Maybe we should do that too, dad, even if I could convince Eva to go home."
Fred answered, "Okay, son. I better talk to our lawyers to submit a request about that."
"Okay, dad."
Meanwhile, Vince didn't notice the man who got out of the white Ferrari parked not far away from where he was.
Bryan looks around the moment he steps inside the restaurant. His eyes were searching for Hailey. He walks toward the private dining hall that is usually reserved for VIPs.
"Hail, why didn't you tell me that you've arrived already?" Bryan asked the moment he took the sofa across from her.
Hailey lookup. It surprised her to see Bryan appear out of the blue. Now, she was a bit panicked.
Although Vince knew about Bryan being her ex-fiance, Bryan doesn't know yet that Vince is her boyfriend and now her fiance.
"What are you doing here, Bryan? Aren't we supposed to meet tonight and not today?" Hailey pursed her lips. She had guess already. "Eva didn't tell you then?"
Bryan sharpened his gaze. He knew it! Eva did something behind his back. She destroyed his phone so that Hailey could not contact him anymore.
But Eva didn't know that he is still using his old mobile number, and he has many ways to contact Hailey that Eva didn't know.
"Yesterday, my phone broke after it fell on the floor, so I have to buy a new one."
Hailey smiled bitterly. She need not guess why. She could tell already. "Is it Eva who destroyed your phone?"
Bryan nodded. He felt ashamed of how Eva is behaving toward Hailey until now. She hated her to hell.
"I'm so sorry, Hail." He apologized.
Bryan attempted to touch her hand, but Hailey quickly withdrew them from the table.
Bryan was hurt by what she did. Before, she doesn't mind if he casually holds her hands. But now, for her, he was like a person who has a contagious disease.
