Chapter 291 - Wedding Date
Back in Australia…
Vincent and Fred are scheduled to go to Hungary three days from now. It had then decided that Hailee would go home in one of their mansions to not sneak out to the office to work.
And while the father and son made a trip to Hungary, Hilda and Vincent's sister will accompany her along with Kelly and Gigi to make a final selection with the wedding details. In this way, other things will occupy her days.
Hailee had set the wedding date. It will be on August 28, 2026…
The wedding is rushed, but both families want to see the couple bind their love through marriage.
So they will announce the wedding date on Hilda's birthday, which is less than three weeks from now on. After Vince and Fred meet the Elders and come back, it is time for them to go back home to Metro City to prepare for a grand birthday celebration.
Of course, it was a perfect time to announce Vincent's grand wedding, and so, all prominent families in P Country must be invited.
Vincent had already racked up his head thinking about it.
If every family her mom were going to invite, that would be not only like three to five hundred people.
Vincent knew his mom deserves to have a grand party, but inviting many people may not be such a good idea. They can hold a press conference if they want a grand announcement of the wedding and Hailee's pregnancy.
But of course, Hilda is strong-willed. She actually wanted to announce it very soon so that the elders had no chance to meddle.
After a long discussion, Hilda finally gives up on her original plan. Her birthday party would be only a Clan gathering—the Lopez and Shen relatives, including extended families such as in-laws.
And if there are other guests, that is their business partners like Hansen Park, Keith Cole, and Hilda's closest friends.
As she hated those plastic families in High Society, Hilda agreed not to invite them as she wanted to show off. Keeping it as a family gathering is much better.
Her birthday party will be live streaming, so everyone would only drool to watch and wish she invited them. Hilda's Hailee nodded and smiled.
Hilda already imagined what would be the theme on her birthday. Of course, still, a grand one as they were celebrating not only her birthday but also the coming of her grandchildren.
Next week, they will find out how many babies they should expect. And Hilda was too excited to meet them. Of course, she was elated because these kids would be the heir and heiress for Shen and Lopez and the Davies.
Both Vincent and Hailee are a successful businessman and businesswoman. They were independent and hard workers. She could imagine and certain that their children would follow in their parent's footsteps, and she felt so proud already.

After Fred and Vincent instructed their architects and engineers that afternoon, they prepared to leave Dream City. Boarded by the two helicopters, they headed to Perth City.
Hilda and Fred are aboard the helicopter piloted by Tom. Gigi and Pitt joined them. And on the second chopper piloted by Andre: Kelly, Vincent, and his sisters are joining Hailee.
Along the way, Sheena and Kelly have been non-stop making plans where to go at night and then go shopping in the following days.
Now that they were approaching the Davies Mansion, Hailee tugged Vince's suit to tell him they were close.
Davies' mansion was located near the beach. Sheena and Deana gasp in excitement. They could see three yachts anchored nearby.
"Oh, my gosh! Are those yachts yours, Hail?" Sheena could not suppress her anticipation.
Hailee nodded. "Two of them are the ones I am using when I travel by sea."
Sheena and Deana need not guess which one's Hailee had been pointing out. Two giant yachts are like twins.
Although they were often sailing before, they just know how grand Hailee Davies owns the yachts. Of course, they had already seen its interior from Hailee's posts on Instagram.
She may not post the overall appearance of her yachts. But she showed enough photos of her luxurious life.
The two helicopters make a tour of the entire city before they land in the mansion's golf field. Before they could tour around the mansion, Hailee showed them the guests' rooms so that they could take a rest first.
"Let's have a barbecue party on the yacht!" Hailee suddenly has the urge to spend time in the middle of the ocean. After she announced this, she ran toward Vince and purred at Vince, "I want some Korean-style barbecue grill at my yacht."
Vince blinks his eyes. He understood Hailee was coquettishly requesting for him to talk to the chef to grant her cravings.
"Okay. I'll go talk to Pitt to give your request to the chef."
Since it was determined she would stay in Perth for a few days. Her nutritionists came ahead of them, traveling by land.
Hailee had a massive smile after he agreed. She smacked his lips with a kiss, then accompanied his sister upstairs to show them their bedrooms.
Vince heaves a long sigh after Hailee disappeared. She was really in a good mood, so he didn't have the heart to say no to her request.
"What's the matter?"
Tom noticed his gloomy face. Vincent glanced at the three men discussing some things in the mansion's entryway. He joined them, then shared what Hailee requested for dinner.
"Let's have some beef and tuna. I'll go ask the chef to make soup as well," said Pitt, patting Vincent's back before he went to the kitchen.
"Don't worry too much. Hailee is a nutritionist herself. She knew she had a limit to how much meat she should intake," Andre appeases him.
Vincent thanked Andre for being an understanding uncle. Says—that Andre is one of those who pampered Hailee all the time. He could see that, but Andre also trusted that she wasn't a kid anymore, unlike the rest of her knights who wanted to meddle every time…
"I'll show you something."
Andre brought Vincent to a private room in the right-wing of the mansion. It was a study room, and with Hailee's pictures, it filled the large room with her beautiful smile.
Vincent immersed himself in looking at Hailee's baby photos. They are also photographed when she was taking a ballet lesson in a private studio.
Hailee was too cute in her pink ballet costume.
They filled the walls with her photos until she's a teenager while she's in a swimsuit and holding a surfboard. The other images are of her on a skateboard or mountain bike.
She's sure had a lot of adventures during her teenage years.
"Hey, there you are! I've been looking for you guys." Hailee appeared at the door. She walks toward Vincent and Andre, looking at her photos. She mouthed, "I could see that the first thing my uncle showed you were my baby photos."
Vince chuckled as he circled his arms around her waist. He said, "I'm looking at the treasure."
Hailee was touched by what she said. During their visit to Shen mansion, she steals a baby photo of Vince. Well, Sheena snuck out the frame out of the room where their mom hung their pictures since they were babies until they grew up.
"Do you want to take one of these photos?"
Vince nodded. Then walk toward the wall and reach out to the photo framed where she was six years old in her ballet costume.
"I want to put this in our study room."
Vince meant the room Hailee used as a working place in her apartment. Most pictures she placed on the console tables are photos of her parents and grandparents. There's no solo picture she displayed in her study room.
Now that she and Vince live together in Dream City, they are now sharing her workplace. Last night, Vince put up his working table and worked until ten in the night.
Now that he has to begin to design their castle, Vince set his mind to work on it every night after working hours. Sharing a working room with Hailee, he could feel what they called POWER COUPLE.
"What were you thinking, hubby?" she asked him when he suddenly fell silent.
At this time, Andre already left them alone to have time together. And so, they are more extra intimate with each other. Vince placed a kiss on her shoulder, then said, "Can I get another one?"
Vince carefully looks at the photos one by one. He had a little trouble picking out another photo he could put on his desk. Finally, he chose Hailee's picture when she was sixteen years old. Hailee is walking on the beach; behind her is the sun about to set. Hailee nodded and smiled.
"Love this so much," he then muttered happily.
Hailee playfully frowned in front of Vince. She pouted, "You have a real one here."
Vince placed his hand on her lower back, then gently pulled her close to him. "You look so magical in this photo. It was like… Even the sun is about to hide, and darkness is soon to wrap this side of the world, but your smile lightens the night."
Hailee feels elated by his poetic words, and she could not stop herself praising him. "Hubby, you were even sweeter now."
"What I said is true. You are the moon that shines in my life…."
Vince lowered his head and ate all the words that Hailee was about to counter. She wanted to say some sweet words as well. But Vince kissed her passionately.
Hailee tightens her embrace around Vince's waist. Being held and kissed by him like this, she felt like she needed no one but him only.
Everything is perfect… or it is just what she thinks so…
