His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 300 - Rebellion (Two)

Chapter 300 - Rebellion (Two)

All of a sudden, tension was put up between the two groups. The elder's private bodyguards and the alliance agents couldn't make a move or act at the moment when at least thirty snipers were aiming at them.

Vincent swept his gaze to the vastness of forest in front of the chateau. Based on the positions of the laser lights, it was where they came from.

Then, his gaze moved to fifteen noblemen below and fixed his eyes on Prince George. If he isn't mistaken, he is also Hailee's cousin, like Prince Alexander, which the guy had mentioned to Hailee earlier.

From his perception, Alexander is the one who reported to Shun about the assassination plot by his very own uncle.

Vincent turned his head when a man patted his back; it was Alexander.

"Come on."

Before he followed the prince, Vincent glanced at his dad and future father-in-law. Both are nodding at him.

Now that the elders have recovered from the shock, they've started questioning the younger princes and even Jacob.

"What is your daughter planning, Jacob?"

"You spoiled your daughter so much! Look what she is doing now!"

The elders could not believe that this spoiled brat heiress did nothing in the past but show off her wealth and how many billions she spent just for her capriciousness.

All she only did was travel the world either by her private plane or by yachts. She also loves posting her super fast car collections that cost several millions of dollars each.

They only see a super spoiled princess who Jacob and her countless knights have overly pampered her in the passing years.

But tonight, that girl actually has the audacity to disrespect them. She is the only one who has the tenacity to order a group of descent noblemen to point a sniper at them! The spoiled princess is declaring war against them, the Council of Elders!

"What is the meaning of this, Jacob? Is your daughter planning to separate the Mafia Association and High Royal Family?"

"Is she breaking off the Alliance?"

Jacob did not answer any of their queries. He already had a feeling that Hailee would not stay seated and silent. To be honest, he was also shocked that his daughter pulled a stunt like this. But Lady Isabella's prediction is undoubtedly accurate.

Hailee would fight against Shun and the elders if Vincent died today. If they haven't saved him, his daughter will go through an all-out war against the alliance.

"Why aren't you answering, Jacob?"

One elder pulled him out of his deep thoughts. However, he only shrugged and replied, "I don't hold my daughter's decision. She had her very own principles, and she stood on what she believed in."

"I seconded that!" Prince George chimed in. "However, the elders have nothing to fear about."

Prince George raises his right hand, then the laser lights disappear, which the elders are relieved of. He went on,

"This is just a fair warning from the princess. She didn't wish for the Alliance to be broken off. But she will keep an eye on all of you. Once you provoke her again, god knows what will happen."

The elders tighten their jaws. They remained furious but chose not to retort in that statement.

The princess made a big move toward them. Of course, they would feel threatened, and that puts an excessive alarm on all of them.

Anyhow, despite the tension and threats, some elders remained silent the whole time. They have a better judgment in the situation, but they need not say a word.

One of them is Duke Mikael Romanoff of the Russian Monarch. It surprised him to see this young prince.

"Mitchell, you are here as well."

"Hello, grandpa." Mitchell Romanoff salutes his grandfather.

Back in Russia, Mitchell was treated as Prince of Russia. Among the royal bloodline remaining alive, he was famous for his active works in the nation.

Seeing him tonight, Duke Romanoff was quite happy. He is one of few elders who were pleased to see these princes stand up on their own feet without fear of fighting against the elders. He believes that this is not about disrespect, but these men are fighting for better principles the older men failed to practice any longer.

The duke would love to give his grandson a thumbs up. However, he must hide his delight and remain adequate as part of the Council.

But it does make him happy to see his grandson made better choices in his life. He was gratified that the High Royal Family had a better future, thanks to the boldness of the princess.

She is the only one who could boldly lead these young princes to fight the elders.

The Council of Elders has been here for over two hundred years, even before the European Union and Mafia Association.

In this generation, Princess Hailee dared to threaten the Alliance using the unified princes from the High Royal Family members.

After a few more talks, Alex and Vincent had now joined the other princes. Since the elders are their respective grandparents or aunts and uncles, the princes did not forget to bid their goodbyes.

"Vincent, ride with me!" Prince George waved his hand, gesturing for Vincent to come to him. The prince's car was in the middle of these fifteen supercars lining up.

Prince George climbed into the driver's seat; Vincent opened the door on the passenger seat and sat down.

"Thank you," said Vincent in a polite tone.

George chuckled. "Don't feel stiff around me. Don't forget that you are a prince yourself. The blood running in your veins is from a line of noblemen."

Vincent smiled awkwardly. He was stiff around him, not because he was a prince, but because he was Hailee's cousin. He would only be polite to Hailee's knights if they were her relatives. But from tonight, Vincent decided to become friendly to all of her knights.

Now he was glad that he didn't burn those frames. If it weren't because of those photo frames, he would not recognize them. The sixteen young noblemen who showed up tonight are Hailee's knights.

Hailee hangs up those photos with a great purpose, and that is to make everyone recognize they are on the same boat.

Vincent didn't notice that they were already halfway from the chateau. He wondered where George and the others would take him to.

Along the way, he and George had discussed random stuff. The prince also asks him about his own business, and George is impressed by everything he does.

George has told him he did nothing in his life but he has to follow the Royal protocols and duties as Good Prince. He complained about many things and said to Vincent that he was lucky to hide his royal blood identity. He has more freedom to walk on the earth without thinking a lot that he is a prince.

"However, your days of freedom are about to end," said George.

Vincent chuckled. He understood what George meant about that. He will tie himself with someone through marriage, and that girl is not just an ordinary person.

She is Hailee Davies, and the world knows who she is. His life would dramatically change, and that was beyond ordinary life.

His marriage with Hailee would always be in the eyes of the media and paparazzi.

Being Vincent Lopez Shen is already exhausting for him when the P Country media is watching him. Now it was the entire world who would follow his life.

In the blink of an eye, they arrived at their destination. Inside the hangar, several sports cars and rovers park inside and outside.

Vincent immediately could tell that the over thirty people hanging out inside the hangar were the ones who aimed the laser light earlier. Of course, they were showing off their sniper rifles to each other. They compared which one must have the best gun and how much severe impact it would cause to their target.

"I will introduce you to everyone," said George.

But Vincent was a little hesitant to get out of the car. These over thirty men are Hailee's knights. He perfectly memorized each face on that wall.

So this is Hailee's European knights.

Vincent heaves a long sigh before he steps out of the car. He was grateful he did not listen to his jealous heart burn those photos. Now he must thank all these men.

He understood the power and influence they were holding in their hands. If there are still assassins out there, following and targeting him, they will not dare to lay their plans in the presence of these princes.

How many countries and kingdoms do they have to deal with? There would be no sleep for them but to run for their life.

Davies Mansion, Perth Australia

Hailee rolled on her left side. As usual, she just wanted to sleep all afternoon. She felt lazy and lonely. She was still restless, thinking Vince wasn't by her side.

She was lying on her side for a bit longer already, but she felt something was missing. The pillow she was hugging disappears in her arms.

Last night, she had difficulties falling asleep. All she did was hug Vince's pillow to breathe through his scent. Now, where was that pillow?

Hailee moves her hand on the space next to her. She holds onto something; she grabs it to snuggle it. However, she wondered why it was sturdy.

She slowly opened her eyes, and a handsome man greeted her.

"Hi…"

"You're home!"

"Yes. I am home…."

Hailee threw her arms around Vince's neck and kissed him passionately. Vince was very careful not to put his weight on her.

With his right arm placed above Hailee's head to support his weight, his other arm traveled her back down to her waist, then upward to her face, holding her chin to deepen the kiss.

"I missed you so much," Hailee mumbled between her gasps for air after the feverish kiss.

Vince smiled. He brushes her cheeks and places a gentle kiss on her lips. "I missed you too, Mrs. Shen."

Hailee only held back her tears and finally let them go. She buried her face in Vince's warm chest. 'This is the real one.' She thought to herself. Being away from him when she had these pregnancy moods is becoming hard for her to deal with.

"Say it again…" she mumbled between her sobs.

"Mrs. Shen…" Vincent said it was more tender this time.

It was like beautiful music in her ears. She tightens her embrace and even squeezes herself inside Vince's arms, staying snuggled.

Later on, Hailee could start hearing loud laughter from the backyard infinity pool. She slightly parted from Vince to look at him. The guy is only smiling handsomely at her.

Hailee gets off the bed and steps out to her balcony. She could not believe it! All of her European knights were here!

The men are now crowded in her pool. Some of them occupied the lounge chairs, and a few of them began grilling barbecues. She could also see her Australian knights.

It excites her to see James in the open kitchen in the backyard's corner, just next to the infinity pool. She could tell the guy was making her favorite Japanese dishes.

"I can't believe this!"

Vince wrapped his arms around her waist and whispered, "I love your European knights more than your Australian knights."

Hailee laughed out loud. She could understand Vince's sentiment. Her Australian knights were there longer with her, more than the rest of her other knights. They were emotionally attached to her more than anyone else…

"Let's join them downstairs!"
