Chapter 91 - In My Heart, You Are My Wife
Hailey successfully opened the album and saw the photos he has been keeping on his phone for four years. At this rate, doubts and fear suddenly disappear inside her chest.
Vince has loved her for a long ti already. Then how about their agreent? What purpose does it serve?
Hailey looked at Vince and queried him in a playful tone, "Tell . Why did you offer an agreent? Is the contract just an excuse? Or is it your way to get closer to ?"
Vince cannot deny anything since he could not suppress his sexy laughs escaping from his mouth.
That smile is evident of his tricky moves! "Seriously, Mr. Vincent Shen?"
Vince's lips parted with a huge smile. "I am, and I am guilty about it," he admitted his cri.
He went on, "I was racking my head to how I could approach you and get close to you. And I am hopeless because of my status. Although I didn't live with my nominal wife, I am still married. And if I courted you, people would label you as my mistress even though I have loved you before my marriage with another woman."
Vince's eyes were full of sincerity, gazing at her lovingly. His voice is too gentle as well, and Hailey couldn't find any doubt in her heart.
However, she's scared. It's not because soone she trusted once betrayed her, like what Bryan did to her.
She was afraid because, for the first ti, she fell in love with soone. It was love that differed from what she felt toward others.
She ponders if she is ready to put down the wall she put up between her and Vince as she couldn't fully describe how she felt about Vince. The only thing she was sure of was that she wanted to remain wrapped by this warm feeling lingering inside her heart.
Then maybe it is not harmful to trust soone once again. Maybe things will work better between them. However, she still has a problem. One is Vince's mom, and two, the woman who destroyed her relationship with Bryan.
How if Eva won't give up Vince? How if his mom persuaded Vince not to divorce Eva?
Hailey sighs with sadness, and Vince notices the loneliness flashes in her eyes. It worries him that Hailey didn't believe him. Now his heart filled with worry. He's trying to work his brain to think of more ways to make Hailey believe in him.
"I'm sorry. I didn't want to put you in a situation such as this. So I want you to trust . I never loved soone before but you. Hailey, how could I prove it to you?"
Hailey blinked to push back the tears that were forming in the corner of her eyes. Vince thought she doubted his love.
But it's not him; it was she who has uncertainties.
Vince didn't know who she was, and she could not make up her mind if it were the perfect ti to reveal who she is because Vince hasn't signed the contract yet. Maybe after then, it is the right ti to tell him the truth.
Hailey shook her head as a response to Vince. She widened her smile and set aside the concerns within her heart. She leans on him and hooks her arms around his waist. She didn't put on weight since Vince was still undergoing subtle body pain from the accident.
"You don't need to prove anything. I believe you, and I trusted you."
And this mont, it should be just for her and Vince, no other things to involve such us as thinking about the projects and Vince's divorce. What she wanted was to enjoy this mont.
A thorn pulled out in Vince's chest, hearing Hailey's response. However, he won't stay at ease. He is determined to show and prove to Hailey that his intention is pure.
"So, those etings are not coincidences, huh?" Hailey jokes afterward. And the way Vince's eyes glowered proves again that it was true. "I can't imagine CEO Vincent Shen is stalking soone!"
Vince blushed; he nodded later. Suddenly, he felt ridiculous for acting like a teenage boy eting his crush for the first ti.
Hailey looked at Vince in disbelief. But her mind was thinking about sothing else regarding that.
'Girl, you need so pat on the back! As a CEO yourself, you are stalking soone too! And that person has just confessed to you!' Hailey could hear her conscience yelling this over at the back of her head. And this will remain a secret for the ti being.
One day, she will share it with Vince that she was also stalking a CEO to get close to him to offer a contract, not to beco her man, and that's another story.
And once again, Vince won! 'His tricks are better than mine!' The thought of Vince stalking her, which she stalked him too, made her laugh with her stomach.
Vince wondered what got into Hailey. He thought maybe he said sothing funny.
Hailey stops laughing when she notices the perplexed expression written on Vince's face. She apologized. "I'm sorry. I rember sothing so cute as you!"
"Really? I am cute?" There is a massive grin playing in his mouth.
"Yup! You are so cute and sneaky! I should have known!" said Hailey.
Vincent laughed when she pulled both of his cheeks like he was so chubby little boy, even though his jaws are tight and muscled. But he enjoyed the attention Hailey was giving him.
"I don't know what life I would have without you," Vince expressed with his whole heart.
Hailey can see it, Vince is declaring his love endlessly, and she must respond.
"Can you promise not to leave but accept , whoever I am or whatever happens?" Hailey asked Vince. Sohow, she needs assurance.
Vince pokes her nose. He took her hand and kissed the back of her palm. "Silly. I should be the one saying that. I ssed up. I got married to soone I don't love. I can't get a divorce yet, and so; you are still a mistress in the eyes of others even if, IN MY HEART, YOU ARE MY WIFE."
Hailey forgot. She hit his shoulder that was sprained, and now his mouth is twitching from the pain. "Ouch!"
"Oh. I'm sorry! I was…" Tears welled up in her eyes. Sobs replaced the words she wished to utter as warmth exploded throughout her chest.
Vince addressed her as his wife is the sweetest thing she ever heard in her entire life. It was even sweeter than her dad calling her My Princess.
Hailey wiped her cheeks. She placed her arms around Vince's neck and whispered, "My hubby…"
