Vincent made hurried steps toward Pitt and James.

"Who is it?" he asked.

"We locate the IP address. It came from Northern Australia." Pitt answered Vincent's query.

"It shows that the user is staying in a hotel," James added to Pitt's statement.

"Hotel? Then… that person is?" Vincent queried out of confusion lingered in his chest. So if that person was in a hotel, he was not permanently staying in Australia?

James looked at Pitt before he fixed his eyes on Vincent, replying to his queries.

"Samuel Miller is staying in this hotel. Sandy hacked the hotel's guests' records; there's no other suspicious guest in the hotel but Liam's lawyer."

Vincent narrowed his gaze.

Liam is locked up, but his men are amazingly loyal to him. He should be impressed, but Liam harms not only him but innocent people.

"I think I need to settle a score for either Liam or his men," said Vincent.

James and Pitt looked up at him before the two men shared a meaningful look in their eyes.

Pitt asked, "What is in your mind, Vincent?"

In the past, the boys acted immediately in a situation. Now that Hailee is married, Pitt is happy that her husband thinks the same.

Since many Knights are busy with their own lives, like managing their businesses and the executive knights building Hailee's Dream City, while Andre has his own life soon, they don't need to wait for these men but rely on the princess' husband, Vincent.

Vincent hurls a long breath to clear his chest.

"I would stay anxious if she weren't talking to me," he said afterward. "I would definitely make everyone pay for harming Hailee. If no one brought trouble, it would prevent incidents like this. It seemed like they thought I would just sit idly."

Vincent pursed his lips into a mocking smile.

These people are hitting his bottom line on purpose. They seemed to believe he was a coward because he only worked silently. He only socialized on a significant occasion.

And it looks like maintaining a low-key profile made everyone underestimate him.

"I might need the rest of the knights," he told Pitt and James.

Pitt could see the determination in Vincent's eyes. Since the princess is involved in this war, they cannot turn down Vincent.

Inside the presidential suite…

Hilda lovingly stared at her daughter-in-law. Hailee looked so pitiful, having an IV in her hand and blood transfusion on the other.

It always impressed Hilda how advanced the state was with its moving medical tools that could be brought around if necessary. Hailee does not want to go to the hospital, so they must treat her in the hotel instead.

Gladly, the air paramedics arrive in less than ten minutes, and Doctor Dave is a great obstetrician. His daughter also responded when the situation got critical around here.

Hilda sighed, remembering what happened a while back. Once again, she praised the heaven that Hailee was quickly saved.

Hilda picks up the clean facial towel and gently wipes the beads of sweat on Hailee's forehead. She groaned, and slowly she opened her eyes.

"Mom…"

"I'm here!" Hilda quickly reaches out Hailee's hand and holds it with both of her palms. "What do you need?"

"I'm thirsty.…."

Hilda quickly reaches for the tumbler with purifying water on the bedside table. She placed a straw for Hailee to drink conveniently. Hailee drank only a little.

"How about porridge? I can make you some. I could add some chicken to it."

"I am not hungry, mom."

"You only ate too little during breakfast," Hilda said worriedly. She was anxious that Hailee was only rejecting everything she would suggest.

"I'll tell you when I am hungry, mom."

Hailee slowly moved to her other side. Hilda quickly helps Hailee by moving the pillows.

"Do you want me to rub your back?"

Hailee nodded her head. She buried her face on the pillow, sighing with relief when her mother-in-law could hit the spot that ached severely.

Suddenly, Hilda's phone rang. She places her phone on the bedside table before she accepts the video call from Sheena. 𝗳𝓇ℯe𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃𝚘𝚟𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝚘𝙢

"Hey, mom!" Sheena waved.

"What happened? Is there a problem with the company?"

"No, mom." Deana chimed in. "Brother is just worried about Hailee, so we wanted to check her out. How is she?"

Hilda glanced at Hailee before she replied to her two daughters' query. She remains motionless in the bed.

"Hailee is resting now."

"Can we speak with her? Brother sounded pitiful when he informed us that Hailee almost had a miscarriage. He was perturbed, dying to be with Hailee at this very moment."

Once again, Hilda glanced at Hailee.

When her daughter-in-law started bleeding, Hailee reminded them that no one would tell Vincent, as she didn't want to interrupt the quarterly conference.

It delighted her every time she would think that Vincent married a thoughtful woman. However, Hailee is putting herself in danger, as she does not stop worrying about her husband.

Hailee must stop worrying about other things, but she should have only thought of nourishing the children inside her womb.

Hilda squinted her eyes when Hailee moved. She realized Hailee was crying. She must have heard Sheena talk about Vincent, which moved Hailee in tears.

She saw Hailee attempt to get up, and so Hilda stepped forward and helped Hailee sit up. She places pillows on her back.

"Thank you, mom." Hailee was always felt tired, especially since she was having difficulties breathing.

She stroked her belly. Her way of conveying to her children was that it didn't matter if she was suffering. She promised to herself to do everything for them to grow healthy.

"Mom, can I talk to Sheena and Deana?"

"Sure! Here…" Hilda quickly handed the phone to Hailee.

"Hail! How are you?" asked Sheena.

"Hail, please calm yourself. We know you are suffering double what we got through when we got pregnant with twins." Deana chimed in.

Sheena concurred with her sister's statement. "Yes, Hail. So, please… Let brother see you. He is too worried about you."

Hailee sobs. "I want to see him too…."

Of course, there was no one she wanted to be with the most but her husband. However, she doesn't want him to see her in that state. She looks so pale, haggard, and her body is covered with massage oil.

"Don't worry, Hail. Mom would also bring some essential oil and apply it to our whole body. In later years, your company introduced these essential oils with wonderful scents! Immediately, it became my favorite. After that, I didn't smell that stinky a lot as I mixed the two oils."

"Really? I'm glad you like them. Mom did the same as well. But I mostly like Lavender over Jasmine now I am pregnant."

"I love the Camellia scent!" Sheena chimed in. She also loves Hailee's products. They were a little pricey, but their creations were satisfying.

When Vincent and Hailee started living together, she and Deana began receiving all Davies Cosmetics products, including skincare and therapeutic products.

They thought it was just Vincent sending them. Now they knew the truth. It was all Hailee.

It never occurred to them that the owner of Davies Cosmetics would become their sister-in-law. Hailee is really outstanding. She became a successful businesswoman at such a young age.

"Thanks to the amazing people surrounding me. They are my inspiration, and my success is all because of my wonderful and proficient team."

These were Hailee's words during the interview for the documentary files.
