His Contractual Mistress

All the cars are now in a position. Kian glanced at his side-view mirror. He clenches his fists and tightly holds the steering wheel of his car. 

It upset him that someone like Bryan Anderson is suddenly joining this race. But he is confident. He already prepares a plan, and he shares it with the others not to let the guy in the back win the race. 

Kian nodded at the other car driver. They nod back at him and grin. It excites them to kick someone's ass!

An announcement made, everyone pays attention to the man holding a pistol. He is pointing it to the sky, and they waited for him to pull the trigger. 

Bang! 

All the cars are now racing to get to the front and lead. And as planned, Kian was leading them. 

But among these cars, there is one that only drove casually, and that is Bryan. 

He observes the cars in front of him. After studying the way they race, Bryan chuckled. "What a bunch of amateurs." 

Bryan just let them lead for a couple of minutes. When about time, he began squeezing in and made an effortless effort to take over the leading cars. 

Kian dropped his jaw when Bryan caught up with him. He tried to pass him, but Bryan only blocked him until they reached the finish line. 

Hailey and her friends had been cheering on him the entire race that pissed Kian. When Bryan gets out of his car, Hailey runs toward him and jumps, hooking her arms around his neck. 

"Congratulations, Bryan!" 

"Thank you." The corner of his mouth contorted a smirk while meeting Kian's sharp glare. 

The guy was very pissed off. Too bad Bryan sees through him that this is his illusion to happen today; to impress Hailey and get a hug and kiss from her. 

Unfortunately, he won't let these bastard teenagers do it in their ways. And regarding this innocent girl inside his arms, she needed to be scolded. 

"Let's go." He put her down and led her toward the passenger in his car. 

"Are we leaving now?" Hailey asks innocently. The smile across her face remained there, and Bryan wanted to slam the roof of his car to vent his anger. 

He walked to the driver seat, sat down quietly, and revived the engine. Bryan drives silently, but Hailey doesn't notice his irritation, and the girl keeps talking about the race. 

Later she exclaimed that made Bryan even angrier. 

"Oh my gosh! I forget to tell Kian about my reply to him!" 

Bryan tightens his jaw, and his face darkened. He chooses not to say anything to control his irritation. But Hailey is too naive. He wanted to cry and laugh. 

As he remained silent, Hailey continued blabbing out. Later, she fell silent. Bryan glanced in her direction to check out why she's quiet now. Hailey turned her head to meet his eyes.

She smiled and said, "Anyway, I don't need a boyfriend because you are here. All I need is the best brother in the world!" 

It takes all his sanity not to step the brake and scream, or both of them shove their faces on the dashboard. Bryan clenches his fists and returns a smile to this naive girl seated next to him. 

'Heavens! This girl has no sense at all! She's too heartless!' 

But Hailey is just too innocent about a romance between a man and a woman or a boy and a girl. 

She only sees everyone as a brother, and her closest girl friends are her sisters. 

"Where are we going, Bryan?" Hailey asked afterward when she noticed that the route they were taking was going southeast. 

"Let's grab dinner before heading home." 

"Oh. Isn't everyone throwing a barbecue party this evening? Ah! Isn't your flight tonight?" 

He replied, "Yeah. But I rescheduled it. I'll stay for a few more days." 

"Really?" 

Bryan nodded. Now he is in a better mood seeing that glint of excitement in Hailey's eyes. 

"I wanted to go somewhere before we go back to the mansion," he said to her. This time, his tone is a little cheerful. "I have been missing this place and the food they serve there." 

"Oh! I'm excited to see this place! Anyway, is it the place you brought your girlfriends?" 

Bryan fell silent. He couldn't help to feel upset. 'And where this idea came from?' 

"I don't have girlfriends and no girlfriend I brought there yet." He said firmly. 

"Okay." Hailey notice that he seemed to get mad when she brought it up. She studied his face before she went on. "James and others used to say that you guys go on dates before. So I think that maybe it was the place." 

Bryan could sense that she spoke softly now. She seems to understand that he is a little upset, and so she's careful; might it make him completely angry. 

And that is true. It annoys him how those idiot men have to tell Hailey about this dating thing! 

He didn't control himself, and his knuckle landed on Hailey's head. 

"Ouch! That hurt!" she complains when he knocks on her head. Now she is frowning at him. 

"Don't ever listen to James." Bryan glanced at Hailey's face before his gaze returned to the road. He could see the confusion in her expression. "It was James who dated a lot, and he only dragged the boys with him." 

"Okay." She's still confused, but she chooses to listen to Bryan. 

"Listen very carefully. I go on dates, but there is a difference in who I was with. Did you understand that?" 

Hailey shook her head. Bryan felt helpless about how he could explain it to this girl. 

"Alright! I went out with those girls in the past, but that's all. It's just a dinner date." 

"Okay. So we are also just having a dinner date then?" 

Bryan wanted to correct that, but Hailey's phone rang. 

"Hi, dad!" 

"Hey, Princess. What time are you coming back?" 

Hailey glanced at Bryan. She pursed her lips into a sweet smile and joyfully told her dad. "Bryan will take me to dinner before we go back, dad!" 

Jacob blinks several times. He opens his mouth but closes it when he could not grasp the word he wanted to say. 

Is his daughter going on a date? She always goes out with the boys, but he never allows them to bring her somewhere during the evening. 

Then it means it was his daughter's first date? No! It was Bryan she's with, and so it is okay. 

"Okay, Princess. Tell Bryan not to stay late at night." 

"Okay, dad! Don't worry. We will only have a dinner date, and then we will go home after!" 

Jacob dropped his mouth open. His daughter was too casual saying it! But for a father, that freaks him out! 

Meanwhile, Bryan almost hit his head on the steering wheel. This girl doesn't mind who she talks with! 

He doesn't want any misconception, but he didn't manage to explain to this girl why people go on dates. 

There is a casual date for a woman and man to know each other. 

And then there's a date with a special occasion with someone dear to you. 

And this girl should know she is someone special and today is his birthday! He just wanted to spend his day alone with her! 

Now he needs to explain it to her father and this naive girl because soon, several men would ask her out!
