His Contractual Mistress-Chapter 366 - Future Gift
Chapter 366 - Future Gift
Vince let Hailee go after the passionate kiss they'd shared. They held hands, walking out of the suite room to join everyone having breakfast at the dining hall.
"Aunt Farah! Uncle Amir!" Hailee rushed toward their table and gave Kelly's mom a warm hug. "I'm glad you had a safe flight."
"Thank you, sweetheart." Farah placed Hailee a kiss on the forehead like a mother conveyed her love to her daughter.
"Please, let the front desk know if you need anything. The weather is still colder, and I will send the housekeeping to check your suite's temperature."
"Ah, this child. We are fine. Besides, Alexander is accommodating as well." Amir, who is familiar with Hailee's thoughtfulness, is still overwhelmed by being treated specially.
He was always in Dubai to take care of his family business in the past decades, and Kelly was only left in Australia. Then he heard about his daughter's best friend, who was very kind to her.
And soon after these two graduated from college and started their own business, he witnessed how they treated each other like sisters.
On the other hand, Hailee and Alex shared a look. She gives her cousin an invincible thumbs up and congratulates him that he is doing a good job impressing his future in-laws.
"I'm glad to hear, Uncle Amir. Then tell Alex if you want a hotel service if you prefer to dine inside your suites. Granny Jamila must be left in the room. Please, tell her I will visit her later after my prenatal check-up."
"Oh! When could we find out their gender? By the way, why is Kelly hasn't been pregnant yet?"
At what her mother had said, Kelly was choked with the omelet she was chewing. She couldn't stop her mother from continuing mumbling when her throat was itchy.
Alex handed her a glass of water, then rubbed her back. She is glaring at him as the guy had that sparks in his eyes, hopeful that it was the permission he was waiting for.
Even though Kelly's family thought they were in that kind of relationship already, Alex still respects her. But with what her mother said, it was a kind of encouragement. He wanted to take this chance to have a baby with Kelly.
However…
"Don't you dare!" Kelly hissed at Alex and said in a meager voice. "You promised already!"
It made Alex gloomy, but it's just in mere seconds, and he cares more about Kelly's feelings. As she said, he promised already, so he doesn't want to break that unless Kelly will seduce him.
Alex smiles at his silly thoughts. It may be true he persuades Kelly using his shameless moves, but not to sleep with her. He is serious about making her his wife because he genuinely loves her dearly.
He took Kelly's hand and planted a kiss on the back of her palm. Then, he whispered to her ear. "I know, and I will never forget what I promised. Don't worry. I will wait until the night of our wedding. However, you can always seduce me." ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣o𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢
Kelly suppressed not to giggle. She smiled and secretly pinched Alex by the waist.
Since the night Alex promised he would not touch her, the guy never stepped on the line. Honestly, they were in the same bed, but the farthest they went to was kissing passionately and hugging each other while sleeping.
And so, she promised to offer her whole being to Alex once they tie the knot.
"Kalila, you are not listening."
Kelly's train of thoughts interrupted after her father called out her name many times. She didn't notice he was talking to her.
"I'm sorry, Pa! I'm just thinking of checking out Hailee's jewelry for the wedding after breakfast. I must make sure everything is ready!"
It was a lame excuse, but she didn't want to explain what was running through her mind to her father. It was something inappropriate!
"Have you visited a gynecologist and got a check-up?"
Out of the blue, her father asked this trivial question, and so she returned to ask. "Why would I do that?"
She looked dumb asking that question, but she truly had no idea why she needed to do that when nothing had happened to her and Alex.
"Don't worry, Pa... Kelly and I will surely get good news soon. This time around, Kelly is full-time helping Hailee make her wedding dress and the jewelry set she will wear. Kelly needs a lot of rest, and so, we just take it slow for now."
Thankfully, Alex saved her from her father's scrutiny. She just figured out what his father's question was about. He is looking forward to a grandson. 𝒇𝙧𝚎𝐞𝙬𝒆𝑏𝑛𝑜v𝚎𝒍.c𝑜m
Kelly looked at Alex with a grateful gaze before she fixed her gaze on her father. She promises her father that "I will have a check-up after Alex and I visit his country."
"Ah, that's right. We have to discuss the wedding with his mother."
Kelly was grateful that her father didn't ask further, and his attention shifted to Alex, who was happily making plans with him.
Hailee didn't say a word as well about why Kelly had not been pregnant yet. She knew nothing had happened to this couple yet, and Kelly is vocal about sharing that with them, and it was something she is proud of about her cousin.
Only proven he is willing to make sacrifices to prove he is genuine in his feelings for Kelly.
She was happy that her best friend ended up with her cousin as they deserve the best for each other, and they are perfect for each other.
Their differences make them perfect. Kelly is straightforward and stern, while Alex is reserved and serious.
But after they realized their feelings for each other, Alex went shamelessly in pursuing Kelly while she tried to control her temperament for the sake of their relationship to work.
And to think of this unique relationship, two people from different cultures and traditions willing to defy everything.
Then, why can she and Vincent?
Hailee fell into deep thoughts. She and Vincent shared the same things they liked. It wasn't hard for her to get along with him because Vincent treated her right. The only thing that restrained him from showing his true feelings toward her was not to reveal the truth that he is already madly in love with her.
Vincent once told her. He tried to pretend cold and aloof toward her. Otherwise, he might not control his urge to wrap his arms around her body and kiss her like there's no tomorrow.
Indeed, they would kiss if they had a chance to be intimate and make love almost every night.
Hailee shared a table with Kelly's family, and she told them that there would be a baby shower tomorrow night.
"Oh. We should send a gift soon!" said Amir Varghese to the couple.
Vincent was delighted at what the older man had said. "Thank you, Mr. Varghese. I will accept it from the bottom of my heart."
"If it will be boys, I will make a dagger for them! But I need your family seal to carve in the handle."
Vincent feels delighted with the man's offer. Kelly is a talented designer and crafter, and no wonder where she got those skills. It was actually running from their blood.
He has no doubts that Mr. Amir Varghese is a great smith.
"I will give you a copy of our family symbols and seal."
"Great! I already have one in mind of what kind of blade I am making. It will be a dragon made of gold and jade."
"That sounded wonderful, uncle Amir. Just perfect for the next emperor," said Hailee, then she glanced at Vince with a knowing look.
Since the documentary hasn't been released yet, and so one knew yet about Vincent's real identity, she is not the only one hiding her real family background.
