His Contractual Mistress

[Before Hailey and Vince visit the Shen mansion for dinner.]

That afternoon, Gigi came to the office. 

"Gigi!" Hailey cried the moment she had a glimpse of her. She embraced Gigi tight, who hugged her back. 

She was too glad that everyone rescued Gigi right away. Her brother, Maynard, has already kept an eye on her and a few trusted men of Congressman Vazquez. 

"I'm happy that you are alright," Gigi muttered between sobbing. 

Hailey nodded. "I'm glad you are okay, as well. It made me worried sick to think Galvin succeeds in taking you. If it ever happens that Galvin brought you back to S Country inside his territory, l will definitely take you back matter what. I will declare war against the Western S Country." 

"Silly, girl… But I didn't doubt that." 

Hailey smiled. Then she bit her lip, hesitant to utter the words forming in her head. She parted from Gigi; she brought her toward the love seat, and both sat down. 

"I was determined to kill Liam myself." Afterward, she told Gigi. "I can't take it anymore. He's always hurting the people I love, especially that I have Vincent as my lover. So I have to stand for myself and protect my loved ones." 

Gigi beamed. She reached for Hailey's hand and held it with both of her palms. "I heard how brave you are. I know you will do everything to save me once Liam or Galvin harms me. So I didn't panic when Galvin set a trap for me so that I would be obedient to follow him." 

"What did he do to you?" she asked. 

Gigi replied in a sad tone. "Galvin threatened me to set fire to the Orphanage where mom grew up." 

"Those cousins are a big piece of shit! They have no conscience for using innocent people! They are not human at all!" 

"That's why no matter what… I would never dream of going back to Galvin, even though he promised to be nicer, as long as I return to him. But I would rather die! I love Tom. He's the only man I would like to spend the rest of my life with and grow old together." 

Hailey could see the spark in Gigi's eyes. She knew Gigi lived in fear and a lonely world in these passing years because of Galvin Huo. Her face is even brighter lately. Then she saw the ring on Gigi's finger. 

"Oh, my gosh!" Hailey exclaimed happily. 

"Tom proposed to me last night, and I said yes." She shared the great news, which Hailey almost jumping on her seat. 

"I'm happy for you, sister Gigi! I'm glad that you gave Tom a chance." 

"I'll take this chance, yes. I deserve to be happy." 

"Of course, you are!" 

"And I want to live a life with no worries that maybe one day, I will cross paths with my ex-husband." 

"That won't happen ever again." Hailey hugged Gigi again. And again, both are crying. Then, the door opens. 

"Hello, pretty ladies!" Tom stepped inside the office, carrying a tray. "I brought some refreshment." 

"Ah! Perfect! I have cakes here!" Hailey let go of Gigi; she clapped her hands. She got up from the sofa to get the cakes she and Vince didn't finish this lunch. 

They are too sweet, and Vince only finishes one layer of the cakes. Vince was glad that they were small layers, or he could not finish everything. 

After Gigi and Tom see the cakes, both drop their mouths open. In their mind, this girl has had a big appetite lately.

METRO INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT

Inside the hangar located North of the airport, several sports cars are parked inside. Ferrari, Lamborghini, and the latest Montfort Super Fast Car series Madison, named after the owner's wife Madison Montfort, Hailee Davies's distant cousin. 

Tim whistled upon scanning these cars from different makers. 

The real identity of Hailey was not the only one that shocked him, but it included the presence of her knights. The same as his boss, Tim is also intimidated by them. 

"Boss, madam is amazing." 

"Madam?" Vince understood who Tim was referring to. But he wants him to explain why he suddenly addresses Hailey as a madam. 

"After Miss Eva Lan signs the divorce agreement, you can finally marry Miss Davies. Then, she becomes my madam!"

Vince shook his head, looking into Tim's dreamy eyes. He smacked his back and said, "She's not just a madam. She is everyone's princess. But she is my Queen."

"Oh. You were saying, boss, that I should address you as Your Highness instead?" 

"Stop making fun of me, Timothy Cheng." he glared.

"Am not, boss!" Tim denies it, but the grin on his face is enormous.

"Whatever…" he dropped the topic. Although there will be a half-truth of that, the more he wanted to live a peaceful life, not attracting too much attention from the public that his bloodline is Emperor Xing of Xing Dynasty. 

Vince left Tim; he walked toward Hailey, who talked to her other knights, saying goodbye as they took separate ways from here. 

"Mr. Park, I'm hoping to see you again." Vince extended his arm and offered a handshake with Hansen Park.

"Surely, I will." Hansen shook Vince's hand while replying to him. "President Harold Lopez, your cousin, wished to discuss an innovation between Lopez Tech and Park Electronics partnership. After the company's annual celebration, I will come back here to P Country."

"Glad to hear that, Mr. Park. Mom's birthday is next month. She is planning to send an invitation to you. Hope you'll stay longer by that time to attend that celebration." 

"I would definitely stay for longer times. I need a tour around Lopez Tech warehouse and Lopez Steel Corp. when I come back." 

Vince smiled. In the past, this person was too difficult to invite him to visit P Country as one of its major partners. 

With Park Electronics, the production in Lopez Steel Corp. has been faster with its advanced technology installed on their production machines. But ever since this man was involved with his cousin Janise, he is willing to personally discuss the Lopez and Park partnership and innovation for a brighter future for both companies.

Not long after Hailey saying goodbyes to her knights, the rest are now heading to their Terminals to catch their flights. Everyone is now heading back to their countries and the only knights left are Tom and Pitt, to accompany them back to Australia along with Johan Castillo, Tom's co-pilot of Hailey's jet plane. He has been there all this time, and Vince already meets him as well. 

Keith and Bruce will continue to help the Shen's and gather more evidence against Senator Gu and the Lan family. 

As for Maynard Chan, he will make sure that Galvin Huo will be sentenced to life imprisonment. He flew to the US, personally following the case against the cousins. With the Mafia association, he won't let Galvin have his freedom from here on.
