His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 117 - Introduce Him To My Daughter

Inside her office, Hailey was a little restless. Vince's presentation has finally come. It was funny that she was the nervous one for Vince when his presentation was for her.

It was crazy indeed. Hailey chuckled and shook her head. She calmed down and prayed that the investors wouldn't look for a fault in his design later after his presentation.

As she already saw his design, she likes the entire planning and outputs, but even though it was perfect for her, others will throw criticisms at Vincent later.

Even though she knew that Vincent is used to this concept, still, it made her anxious and the worried one here.

Anyway, she would understand if the investors will try to find fault in Vince's plans. They are risking their investments here, and they want a profit, not a disaster.

Hailey takes a long breath. She was seated on the sofa, facing the wall with a giant flat-screen to watch Vince's presentation.

She poured herself a coffee and sipped on the mug. Her gaze lifted when her office filled with Vince's voice. It was husky and full of confidence, not to mention he was too handsome in his silver suit.

A sweet smile lingering her lips to see a cheerful Vince delivering his presentation.

He first introduced himself and Tim. Before he moved to his presentation, he played a short video regarding the latest projects that Shen Group worked on.

In the video's opening, two modern towers stood majestically in a bay surrounded by yachts and sailing boats.

Instantly, Hailey's face flushed upon recognizing the sight of the penthouse. It is the place where she and Vince make love.

She didn't see it coming. Even she was alone in the room, her cheeks burning from shyness, remembering the nights she and Vince shared a bed.

And it worsens when the Crescent penthouse next appeared in the video. She could say it was her and Vince's haven where everything began.

And it didn't just end there. Her mouth dropped open when Vince included the new building he constructed at M Resort. Not only that, he has to show the reception during their Class Reunion.

The screen is filled with white and black roses like there is a wedding at the moment. And it was when she and Vince danced!

Gladly, the video focuses on the flower decorations, and the couple dancing in the middle of the dance floor was blurry.

If it happens, it will reveal her relationship with Vince!

"What is he doing?"

Vince's opening presentation is more like a recollection of beautiful memories they both shared. Now she understood what Vince said to her earlier.

"I am fine because you are my smile."

Hailey dried her eyes. The video was beautiful. And what displays next is the new mall of Metro City, the Metro Garden, followed by the hotel that Vince designed that connected to the mall and several residential skyscrapers in Metro City and several parts of P Country.

Vince also highlighted the use of E-transport. Vince is likely showing his vision for Dream City.

He could restore an ancient building or build a modern one.

Hailey wished to see everyone's faces. Just watching the video, Vince already received applause.

She wipes the beads of tears that formed in the corner of her eyes. Happiness filled her chest as emotion flooded her heart. She was too proud of him.

The video continues, and it displays the International projects Vince worked on before. And those present in the presentation had already been impressed by what they have seen so far.

Vince now began his presentation. Hailey glued her eyes on the screen and didn't blink.

How many times did her heart skip its beat? She couldn't count anymore as she was drawn to his charm.

Vince becomes more handsome in her eyes. The way he speaks and explains things, she can't take her eyes away but is drawn to his charisma.

She was glad that she decided to come and watch his presentation today. She witnessed the other side of Vince.

Vince received applause at the end of his presentation. And the look on their faces, everyone seemed satisfied.

The investors began whispering to each other. Vince patiently waits for their viewpoint and criticism, which he already prepared himself for that.

Meanwhile, Hailey's heart filled with anticipation. Her business partners have now begun querying Vince. Gladly, he answered them with full enthusiasm.

"Hail, do you have any questions?"

Hailey heard Geoffrey on the other line. She replied, "Nothing. It was perfect."

Geoffrey and Josh shared a glance. This is the only presentation that Hailey didn't ask anything. In the past, she prepared a hundred questions to throw at the contractors.

But Hailey immediately approved the Shen Group presentation.

"What's the matter?" Trevor leaned over and asked Josh.

Josh shrugged his right shoulder. "The Princess approved it."

"Oh. That fast? Does she have no questions or anything?"

Geoffrey shook his head. He took off the earpiece in his ear and spoke. "The presentation was indeed excellent. But she always has questions to shoot."

"But nothing this time, huh?" Leo chimed in. The men shared a glance and nodded.

"Mr. Shen!" Kelvin raised a hand and sat up from his chair.

Hailey, keenly watching what was happening in the conference hall, her eyes widened, and her jaw dropped on the floor.

"What are they doing!?" Hailey stresses out.

The men start throwing questions at Vince. Even so, it didn't make Vince lost cool. He answered calmly with a thin smile playing on his lips.

He explained further and shared more of his ideas.

"If anyone has more questions, I actually love to discuss it with your female boss. I wish I could personally share my vision with her regarding Dream City."

Everyone fell silent. And each of them knew the restrictions. No outsider knew who Hailey was, and so no one permitted them to meet her.

Among the crowd, Jacob pursed his lips into a grin. He likes Vincent's attitude.

No one saw it coming. Someone made the boys shut up! It was the first time it happened. Jacob held not to taunt the boys.

He understood why these men are suddenly throwing obvious questions. As usual, they were overprotective of the princess.

Once they saw someone as a threat to their territory, they were like lions setting a barrier at the potential enemy or rival.

Admiringly, Vincent Shen knew how to hold his grounds and that not to feel threatened. He would roar back.

'Wait... He said he has a wife. But he didn't confirm he is married. How if he is single? Maybe I could introduce him to my daughter?' Jacob thought to himself. But then, he shook his head. 'Ah! I promised I wouldn't meddle any more with my daughter's love life and marriage.'
