His Contractual Mistress-Chapter 435 - Loyal Friends
The following day, Janise and Hansen arrived in Sydney. Nothing could contain Hailee's happiness to see all the maternity clothes Janise tailored for her.
"They are so beautiful!"
There is no ending to how Hailee praises Janise's designs exclusively for her. She tried on as many dresses as she could. Later she got tired. Hailee took a break and had something to munch on. Since the girls were here, she was spoiled too much.
Every day they bake her different pastries and desserts with the approval of her nutritionist and dietitian; they make sure that it was healthy for Hailee and the babies, such as not using refined sugar but natural sweeteners like honey and maple syrup.
At the moment, she felt like she was brought to heaven having the pies melted in her mouth. Today, the girls baked her a strawberry pie and donut strawberry fillings. Next, she took a bite of the macaroons, and then a bowl of potato salad.
The girls looked at Hailee with a smile on their lips, bemused to see her having a good appetite after she almost had her miscarriage.
Vincent also felt delighted that his decision to invite the girls to visit Hailee was right. They were the first people he could remember that were close to Hailee since her old friends were all busy in their careers and after having their own families.
Besides, the three teenagers really had an impressive effect on his wife's mood, and he trusted these girls to respect their privacy. They are not the girls who would gossip about them to other people. Especially with Hailee's condition now.
He already noticed how these girls would defend Hailee every time someone lashed her at the school or on social media. At first, he thought they were nice to Hailee so that they could take advantage of his status, such as giving them favors, as they were good to his fake girlfriend.
But through time, these girls are really wonderful friends to Hailee. They are the ones who witness their love story since the mistress' contract and until now; they were still here for them being loyal friends.
The media was persistent in getting the latest updates about them. These girls were also bothered by reporters after they became known as Hailee's closest friends in P Country, so he arranged a few people to drive them around, especially when they go to school and enjoy their lives.
Reporters want a piece of news about him too, whether he was genuine to Hailee or he was only after her inheritance. He was infuriated at first, but now he doesn't care anymore. He won't waste his time and energy to mind their lashing.
The entire world is watching them. Gladly, Shun can block the news and release only what others should know about their lives.
Like at the moment, Hailee was scanning the photos that were taken while she tried on the dresses.
"Hubby, is my face getting rounder?"
Vincent blinked and studied his wife's features. Although she really gained weight because of the four babies, Hailee's face changed a little. Just a little fat. If Hailee wasn't pregnant, it would be a huge mystery where all the food that she's eaten.
"It would only be normal that your body will be even rounder in the next three months." Instead of replying to Hailee's question, Vincent reminded his wife about the future scenario. He wants Hailee to know that it doesn't matter if her body size would double.
She is pregnant, so the changes are normal. He doesn't want her to feel insecure, as she could no longer wear her tiny thong and bikinis. Instead, he wants to encourage her to be proud of her motherhood journey.
"Which one would you like me to post?" asked Hailee, showing the images on her phone.
Vincent took the phone from Hailee and scrolled it down. Everything is beautiful. Although Hailee is already pregnant with his children, he does not agree to post these photos when they are actually revealing and daring. ƒ𝐫𝒆𝐞w𝗲𝚋𝗻૦𝘷e𝙡.c𝑜𝙢
Most of the dresses are backless and deep V-neckline and do not require Hailee to wear a brassiere, which is convenient for her, actually. He is honestly a conservative guy, but of course, it doesn't mean he would stop his wife from what she grew up with.
Soon, Vincent had finally chosen a couple of photos that he could see the best ones as the angel was perfect.
When Hailee updated her Instagram, the world was overjoyed to see the latest news about her pregnancy.
Hailee also posted a photo of her, and Vince seated on the grass in the garden.
She and Vincent are both wearing white clothes. Hailee's eyes couldn't take off away from her husband. Vincent looked so handsome when the sleeve of his shirt rolled up to his elbow and then three buttons opened, displaying his sturdy chest.
Added to that, both are barefooted. A picture of comfort and carefree on their weekend bonding time.
"Look how in love they are for each other!"
"Where could I find a man who would look at me like I am the only girl in the world?!"
"Ah! What a pretty Mumma!"
"Our Empress even looked happy and content!"
The photo had become the most talked about on every platform in social media. Hailee chose it as the greeting card to send away to their friends and family.
Another week had passed swiftly. Hailee was occupied every day so there were no dull days, but she felt so much love from everyone. 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮
"Hail!"
Someone shrieked at the door.
"Miss Kelly!" It was the three girls who first reacted and rushed toward the woman.
However, Alexander quickly moved in front of Kelly.
"Hold up, girls! You can't do that anymore," said Alex in a very serious tone. For the times he got to spend with these three teenagers, he became familiar with their witty and free-spirited personalities.
Meanwhile, the three girls froze on their feet. The excitement that was exhibited on their faces was even more profound as they understood Alexander's acts. However, the thought they have in their minds turns into uncertainty when Kelly hits the guy on his shoulder.
"Don't believe in him! He is just practicing!" Kelly glared at her fiance.
Alex burst out laughing, followed by the men after they realized what was going on. They ridiculed his exaggerations and acts of trying to fool them. He joined the men, and he received light punches after he sat down on the couch.
"Really, dude?"
Alex laughed and countered Pitt and James' jeer.
"How about the two of you? When will you guys plan to get married as well?"
Pitt and James only remained silent and did not retort, which was unusual for Alex. 'Oh… Something is going on, it seems.'
Meanwhile, Kelly exchanges a hug with the three teenagers before she rushes toward Hailee and hugs her tight.
"Gosh! You are so bloated!" Kelly commented on Hailee. Anyway, she may sound like she is only joking. Hailee is used to her character.
"Girl, prepare yourself! Having multiple babies is in mine and Alex's bloodline!"
After Hailee mouthed that, Kelly turned pale as she imagined herself being bloated with three mini Alex.
'Oh, my gosh! Can I really endure the sufferings?' She was excited to conceive Alex's children but thinking about having twins and more, she became nervous.
Kelly calmed herself and stared at Hailee. She looked miserable having four babies in her womb. She also noticed that Hailee often hurled deep breaths and constantly stroked her bump.
They often have conversations on the phone, and Hailee constantly complained about going to the lavatory. She is almost living there as she says and Kelly is becoming part of that as Hailee would chat with her if she was taking time in her new world and that's the toilet room.
It seemed like a very tough journey. But seeing Hailee and Gigi's smiling faces.. Maybe it was so worth it after all.
