Chapter 143 - Long Distance
Hailey pushed the door open after she put the password on the system lock. She steps inside the house; her eyes travel to every corner of the living room, the kitchen, and the pool area.
Suddenly, a warm feeling wrapped around her heart, walking around the house that witnessed how her and Vince's love blood.
She looks upstairs, and it feels like she could feel Vince's presence through the mories that flooded inside her head.
So this is the feeling of being in love? It is overwhelming like she can't explain, but tears want to escape from her eyes, and she allows a few drops to trail down her cheeks.
She's falling harder for Vince. It has been just two weeks since they were officially in a relationship. But before that, they are already creating mories in this penthouse.
Now she could feel it will be hard for her to leave this place. The penthouse has beco her and Vince's love nest.
That's right. This house is their haven.
Hailey climbed the stairs with her luggage; she put it away in the corner and looked around her bedroom. It reminds her of the first ti Vince sleeps with her in this room.
Well, it's not the first ti they were on the sa bed because that happens in M Resort, but she only rembered a little as she got drunk from the party.
But after many months that they were living together under one roof, they finally sleep together in the sa room. Although nothing happened, she discovered that she had a dangerous effect on Vince's body being next to him.
He got a hard-on. But Vince showed how he respected her. He controls his desire, and that made her fall in love with him even more profound.
Then, after Vince confessed to her during his accident, their relationship moves to the next level. Their intimacy was not only kissing and hugging.
And thinking about it now, she couldn't stop her cheeks blushed even she's alone in the room.
But she's already missing Vince. True, that she sees him back in Dream City from a distance. But it is still different from being wrapped inside his arms.
He made her feel the assurance that inside his arms, no one can hurt her, and she is not allowed to be sad.
She thought that Dream City could make her completely happy. But she is wrong.
It was Vince.
And she thought that building Dream City is already her biggest dream. But she was wrong again.
Her biggest dream is to have a life with Vince and, of course, to build a family and be together forever.
However, right now, that is yet to happen. Especially that soone threatens Vince's life. But once it will over, his divorce sure to follow.
Before she could cry on, Hailey went to Vince's bedroom and lay down on the bed and breathed his scent that was lingering in his bed.
No. His scent is all over his bedroom. Not only that, all their mories being together is like a flashback. She and Vince not only make love in her room, but they also share love in his bed.
Of course, she can't stop recalling these mories because, through body contact, they created another world that only matters between her and him.
Besides, it was a great feeling to wake up next to him, which Vince has been vocal to her lately. He misses waking up first thing in the morning that her face he sees the mont he opens his eyes.
And she could relate to that. She began missing the day and night that his warm arms were tightly holding her, and the mont she woke up was his handso face, she saw.
They both miss each other.
Hailey was lost in her world, thinking about Vince, when her phone rings out loud. Upon reading the na of the caller, she couldn't stop her tears anymore.
"What's wrong?"
She texted Vince that she arrived in the penthouse. Soon, he video calls her, and a worried face he saw on her phone screen seeing her crying.
"I just missed you."
Vince becos speechless. Even he is also missing this girl the minute he parted from her.
"I'll be ho soon."
He said in a gentle tone that soothes her chest. And yes, she needs her ho.
"I'll be waiting." She sobs.
Vince breathes a sigh of frustration. Nothing he wishes at this very mont is to hold this girl. He hopes to dry those tears with his kisses.
"I'm glad that you are ho safe," said Vince.
"Yes. And I am happy to be ho. But of course, I'll be happier if we are together." Hailey couldn't help expressing her feelings toward Vince.
"I missed you too, bad. Would you like to co with instead?"
Hailey is a bit surprised at the sa ti, worries linger in her eyes, but she quickly conceals them. At the mont, she can't grant his wishes even if she would love to be in the sa place where Vince is. But that is impossible for now.
'I'm sorry, Vince. It's not the right ti yet.'
"I would love to. Maybe by sumr? This sester will end soon." She instantly finds an excuse. Gladly, Vince believes her because he supports her in finishing her course.
"You are right. It will be just a couple of months."
She nodded and planted a smile on her lips. "Yes. And then, I'll be in my second year."
Vince believes that she wanted to build her restaurant. And he also believes that she could manage a five-star hotel after she completed her courses which Vince knew nothing about, that she would own everything soon, the reason she is taking these courses.
Vince, on the other hand, was relieved seeing her sweet smile. 'This girl didn't know how I always worry about her.'
"By the way, I have sothing to talk to you about."
"What is it? Is everything okay?" He asked. Sohow, he had the idea of what possible topic Hailey wanted to discuss. If this is about that issue, he wanted her to know that he didn't believe it.
Just a while ago, Bruce inford him about the article. It made him rage because those entertainnt people used the opportunity when he was out of the country.
How dare they slander Hailey with such gossip? Even if he's not in the country, he'll make sure to pay whoever is behind this news.
However, it is not the matter what Hailey wanted to discuss with Vince. She had another concern more than the gossip, and that is her identity.
Hailey bites her lower lip before she speaks. These passing days, she's been lying with Vince. Although, since the beginning, everything is already a lie regarding her true identity, it is different now.
She and Vince were in a real relationship, except that everything is just an agreent between them; she has no worries because she plans to reveal her identity after divorce.
But it becos complicated. Moreover, she falls in love with Vince. Not only that, Vince confessed that he is in love with her for a long ti already.
After a long silence, Hailey finally speaks again. She smiled and said, "I just wanted to let you know that I was invited to prepare a special dinner tomorrow night."
"Oh. Where?"
"At the La Fleur Restaurant," she replied.
"Oh. Is the Vasquez family having an important gathering?" asked Vince.
The restaurant is owned by Congressman Vasquez, a perfect friend of his dad. Besides, Hailey worked as a part-ti waitress in that restaurant before he offered her a contract.
Recalling the past, Vince hid the smile playing on his lips. Of course, he rembered how tricky that waitress one ti he dined in that restaurant.
Vince fixed his facial expression. He conceals not showing his silly smile at Hailey. "Ahem."
"Well, it's not a celebration but a confidential eting among DV Gem business partners. ."
"Oh. Zayn ntioned it to . The DV Gem will put up a store as an Asian branch in tro City Garden. The store will launch soon."
"Yes! The eting will be attended by important personnel from GV Company, and so they prefer sothing French and Italian cuisine to serve during the dinner eting."
"Hmm. And that is your expertise. Of course, you can."
"Thanks!" She breathes with a sigh of relief. At least she wanted Vince to know where she will be. The dia is still keeping an eye on her. From now on, she needs to act with extra care.
Ironically, her life here in P Country is more controversial than her life in Australia.
"Wifey..."
Hailey's chest fluttered after Vince called her that way. The word isn't just sweet but most especially the way Vince says it.
"Yes, hubby?"
Vince smiled. Suddenly, he felt like tears began forming in the corner of his eyes. It was a wonderful feeling to be called this way by the woman dear to his heart.
Now he was distracted and forgot the things he wanted to tell her.
"I love you, Hail."
"I love you too, Vince."
Vincent completely forgets his request from Hailey. But later tonight, Vince phoned her again, and it surprised her.
"Are you sure I will be the one to choose the gift for your mom's birthday?"
