Chapter 219 - His Mom's Fury

When Vince heard his phone ringing, he glanced at the nightstand to check out the time. The digital clock showed him it was quarter to six in the morning.

Although he usually got up at five, he wanted to stay another hour on the bed to cuddle with Hailey. But now, because of the call, they are both awake.

Still feeling sluggish, she looked at Vince with questioning eyes. She wondered if it was Tim who was calling him this early in the morning. It must be important or an emergency. Hailey watched him pick up his phone and studied his phone. When Vince remained unmoved, she asked with curiosity. "Who is it, hubby?"

"It was dad," Vince replied to her, glancing in her direction.

"Oh. It must be important. You should answer it now." She urges Vince while she crawls the slight distance between them to hug him.

Vince was amused by what she did. It tickled him at how she keeps sniffing on his body. Now he was thinking if when does she turn into a pup from being a kitten.

With a smile on his lips, he swiped the green button and greeted the person in the other line. "Hello, dad?"

Then he leaned over to brushed his mouth on top of Hailey's enticing lips.

"Good morning, son. Have you just woken up?" asked Fred from the other line?

"Ah, yes, dad!" Vince answered immediately, not to make his dad wait and have a suspicion.

Anyway, Fred knew that Vincent is an early person; that's why he dares to ring him this early, but discovering that he was still in bed at this hour is a bit new to him. So now, he realized that he should remind himself from time to time. His son is with someone now. He should expect a few changes.

So then, Fred apologized to Vincent. "I'm sorry, son. I'm used to having a coffee with you this time around, so I thought you were up already."

"It's okay, dad. I have a plan to go to the company today, so I should be up and prepare to go to the office soon." Vince made this immediate reasoning not to make the atmosphere awkward between him and his dad.

"I see. By the way, how are you?"

"I'm fine, dad. Nothing to worry about."

"How about her?"

Vince need not guess that his dad is referring to Hailey. He answered, "She is fine as well, dad."

"I'm glad to hear that. Carl just got home not long ago, and he told me about everything that had happened yesterday. It made me happy that the entrapment operation was successful. Anyway, your mom also got worried when she heard about it. She was infuriated at first, so I have to tell her everything, and why do you have to face him yourself."

"Oh. Mom knows already?"

"I was worried about you and even for Carl, and your mom notices how restless I am. I can't lie to her, so I told her what was going on. She's the one who bugged me to go to the Supreme Court to file a case against Senator Gu. And then, to sue the Lan family as well."

"I see..."

It's all that Vincent could say. He knew his mom's temperament. It's not surprising if she pursues a lawsuit against the people that threaten his life.

"Should I be there as well?" He asked his dad afterward. He and Hailey have a plan to fly to Australia tomorrow. His dad's news made him wonder if they should have delay for a few days. But he badly wanted to see Eva and get his long-awaited divorce.

Vincent came back to his senses when his dad replied.

"I think you don't need to be there since we were filing a case. So you can go ahead to the office. I will meet you there."

"Okay, dad. There are a few things I want to talk about with you."

"Sure, son. Then, I will hang up now. I need to talk to our lawyers first and discuss these matters."

"Alright, dad. Thank you for letting me know."

"You're welcome, son. We must do this to give an example that we are not easy to mess with."

"Of course. I understand, dad." He put down the gadget after his dad ended the call.

Vince looked at Hailey, who is patiently waiting for him to finish his conversation. He rakes her hair, then places a kiss on her forehead.

"Is everything okay?" Hailey asked.

"Yes. Dad just notified me that mom would file a lawsuit against Lan and Senator Gu."

"Oh. I ordered Bruce to hand the evidence he was able to gather to your dad. It states there that Lan was involved in your accident."

"It was solid evidence against them, yes. They must face the punishment, and I know that mom won't let this go. They will taste mom's fury. And, of course, they also got to taste what Hailee Davies can do. Suppose you didn't call your knights in here. Things would be a little difficult for us."

"I have to thank everyone for their efforts to protect me. By the way, I never thought that Professor Carl was a Mafia Lord in the past."

"Yes, he is. And I think he was qualified since his grandfather is a lord, and Carl made him an heir."

"Hmm… On his father's side then."

"Yes. Besides, he's the one who completed the training. I only attended the camp once. How about you? Did you attend it during summer?"

"Well, I didn't. But the boys do. And when they were back. It was then the time they gave me a private lesson. I learn Martial Arts, and later on, Shun wants me to learn how to shoot."

"It was Liam who taught me how to aim the vital parts of a human body. I… I never thought I was going to use what he taught me to defeat him."

Vince keeps stroking her long hair while she remains to hug his waist.

We don't need to talk about him if you feel uncomfortable."

"Yes. I don't want to think about him anymore. All I want now is to spend my time with you." She cupped Vince's face and kissed him.

Vince got off the bed as their lips pressed together, carrying Hailey in her arms; he brought her to the bathroom and took a shower together. They were both dressed for the office; Hailey made a quick breakfast for them before leaving the penthouse.

"I have been thinking of a scenario as our future married life. But I never imagined that one day, I would drop you off in your office as Hailee Davies," he whispered in her ear.

Vince always feels elated every time he realizes that the woman sitting next to him in the backseat of his Lambo is not just the girl he has been dreaming of all these years but someone whose desire by the entire world to meet her in person.
