Chapter 357 - Breathe Life
"Hiryuu Island is paradise!" Jessa shrieks after she hears the name of this famous island. "My husband brought me there on our second honeymoon, and it was so wonderful! The water was crystal clear, and the people were nice! And everywhere is just romantic!"
"I want Alex to bring me there too on our honeymoon!" Kelly had been there with Hailee many times with her yacht, but it would be different if she went there with only Alex as honeymooners.
"You cannot wait to get married to my cousin, huh?" Hailee teased Kelly, who blushed in an instant.
Kelly replied, "There will be no difference, right? Besides, my family has arranged for me to marry a nobleman, which I am so tired of already making excuses and explaining to my father that no one I like to these men they chose, and I can't tell him that at least I want someone I love."
"And Alex is the one that is destined for you," Gigi chimed in.
From a person who curses the word, Love and Marriage... Now, she is the woman who believes in second chances. Plus, Tom is her first love because she never loves Galvin.
He is the nightmare she is utterly forgotten now because the only thing Tom showed her since they made their relationship official is how wonderful her life and being in love is a beautiful feeling.
Kelly hugged Gigi and planted a kiss on her cheek. "These are the words from a woman who is very happy now after the second chance of life offers her. I'll definitely believe it."
"Don't make me cry. I am pregnant now, and I am way more emotional than I have been before." Gigi had just said that, and now her eyes flooded with tears.
Janise and Jessa also shed tears. These successful women who have been rich since birth actually don't have a perfect life.
They were sleeping in a bed made of gold, but the truth is, they were only hiding the sadness and incompleteness of their life.
"Hail, isn't the hotel and resorts is owned by your cousin? And the forest was made by his in-laws?" asked Janise, as she was also daydreaming that Hansen would bring her there soon. She plans to take a one-week vacation before working on her new collection after Hailee's wedding.
"Yes. It was a beautiful island, and Shun wanted to protect it," Hailee replied.
"Actually, Hailee is part owner of Dragon Hotel Solaris," Kelly reveals this secret that drops the cousins' mouths: Jessa and Janise.
"Oh, my god!" Jessa burst out in surprise. It is not surprising, actually, as Hailee was super-rich, but the thrill of hearing it was there!
Hailee is making billions while she is sleeping!
"Gosh, Hail!" Janise has become emotional too. "You are even richer as days pass by! I was the luckiest designer on earth to make your wedding gown."
"Not just luck, but you are very talented. Janise, you are truly amazing."
"But dressing up as Hailee Davies? That was a dream come true for me! Did I already tell you that? I was always inspired by her even if I haven't seen her face!"
Hailee shook her head, displaying a smile that she was amused by how Janise cried being honored to make her a dress. worked
"You didn't, yet. But I am also fortunate to have you as my cousin-in-law, one of the best designers I've met in my life."
"Oh!" The happiness she felt was overwhelming to bear in her chest. Janise gets up from the sofa and moves to Hailee's side to hug her. "Don't flatter me so much! I don't want my head to grow bigger!"
"I know you wouldn't. You will always be a down-to-earth person." Hailee is sure to say this as Janise is one of the nicest people she meets in P Country, and she never judges her when the news appears that she is Vince's mistress.
"Thank you, Hail. Everything you do actually inspires me, and I have already followed all the news about you. The foundation you do, and how you started your own company, and you actually have more businesses!"
"Actually, everything I did could not help everyone who I wanted to reach out to. But maybe the start makes a difference in this world, and there is someone who follows and does little deeds. This world does not need one person to solve all the problems but people who will do a little deed to make more difference on this planet."
Jessa made sure she recorded Hailee's beautiful words. She is absolutely right. This small deed also changed her life, and the person she could remember was Fraine's family. They are poor, but Fraine's parents are wonderful people.
She misses her best friend.
Jessa closed her eyes and focused on filming this conversation. She already had what caption she would write once she posted this video.
"We don't need one person to help everyone, but inspire the right people. Because someone from these people will do the same deed to others, who will be inspired as well and do the same deed."
Indeed, this world will make some changes and become a better place for others to live in.
It gladdens Jessa that she meets these amazing women.
That entire afternoon, the girls continue chatting until the men are off to work. There will be a barbecue dinner at the apartment rooftop, but Hailee ditched the wonderful meal to avoid having meat often.
"Hubby, let's go to the northern-east district."
"Okay, Wifey." Vince turned the engine and drove the car toward the hill where they would build their castle.
Seated at Maserati's metallic red hood, Vincent wrapped Hailee inside his arms as they watched the sunset. Both are thankful to breathe life like this, as the beautiful scenery left them speechless.
After the sun disappeared from their sight, the whole place filled with city lights from pole lamps and buildings standing proudly from different parts of the city.
"I never thought that life could be even as beautiful as this." Hailee looks up to meet Vince's gaze, and it is tender and could melt her heart. "I never think that there is someone who can make me even happier."
Vincent placed a kiss on her forehead. Then, he uttered lovingly, "I thought it would just be a dream that one day comes I could hold you like this. Every day I wake up next to you, it still feels like I am dreaming."
Hailee didn't notice tears started falling down her cheeks. Vince lifted his arms and dried her eyes using the thumb of his fingers.
"I love you, Mrs.. Shen," Vincent whispered before he covered Hailee's mouth; he didn't give her a chance to answer.
