His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 263 - Meeting Her Lover (Three)

Since it came to this, Doctor Thomas explained further.

"Well, the reason it took me longer to reach out to you all was that I ran multiple blood tests, and the level of her hCG was too high. She is six weeks pregnant for now. In her eight weeks of pregnancy, let's run another ultrasound, another hCG blood test to confirm how many possible fetus babies are growing in her womb. Also, we could determine this by listening to the baby's heartbeat. For now, let's focus on giving her the rest she needs and avoiding stressing the patient. She lost a lot of blood, and gladly, we have the blood type we need to transfuse to her. So you can relax now."

Doctor Thomas was looking at Vincent when he said the last two sentences. He was convinced he must be the fiance. The two nurses who assisted him earlier told him that a man covered his clothes with blood, agitated to know the patient's condition. The female nurse was muttering about a post on Instagram.

"Could it possibly be that he is the fiance Miss Davies posted on Instagram?" Then an intern echoed this and that, gossiping…

"Both of you can get out." He told them with a haughty tone.

"I'm sorry, Doctor Thomas." They apologized.

Doctor Thomas shrugged this thought, and he carried on. The boys wanted to ask further, but doctor Thomas bid goodbye.

"I will monitor her condition all night, so you don't have to worry." Doctor Thomas said before he left. "For now, they were carefully treating her wounds on her arms and legs. It is dangerous for her to fall on objects or dangerous places once she suddenly loses consciousness, so make sure to keep an eye on her… We are doing everything that her wounds would not get infected and leave no scars. I'll talk to the other doctors. We need to be careful of what medicine to give her for this."

"Doctor Thomas, I am Doctor Payne. Can I join your team? Here's my ID. I want to help monitor the princess' condition..." Doctor Hector Payne pulled out his ID from his back pocket and showed it to the older doctor. "...personally, actually," he added.

Doctor Thomas nodded. "No problem! Of course. I know you, Doctor Payne. Your parents are excellent surgeons."

"Thank you, Doctor Thomas." He thanked the doctor, then doctor Thomas went back to the Operating Room.

Doctor Payne turned around to talk to the men, assuring them that Hailee will be okay.

Jacob took a seat on the bench after the doctor leaves. He's trying to process everything that happened to his daughter. His precious daughter almost had a miscarriage. Her mom died in the accident, but what caused her quick death is due to blood loss because of miscarriage.

"She'll be okay, right?" Jacob asked no particular person.

He just wanted to mutter his thoughts. Right now, unexplainable emotion brimmed over him as he tried to calm himself.

But how could he? His daughter almost shared the same fate as her mom!

For the second time, he was on the edge of his seat, mulling over the possibilities of the cause, and his daughter had to be sent to the hospital.

What happened, and she was stressed too much?

"Now, can any of you explain this?" Geoffrey is looking at Pitt and Bryan back and forth.

He was casting a glare at Bryan as it boils his blood. He has a feeling that the person who's at fault.

Jacob raised his head after Geoffrey made that query. His gaze ran across the hallway. There's a question that still hasn't been answered.

Why is Vincent Shen here, and he is the only one who has blood on his clothes?

Jacob doesn't want to presume, but the beating of his heart is unsettling. However, it is impossible that his daughter's companion is Vincent Shen.

He glanced at Pitt, studied the guy. He is Hailee's Head of Knights during her trips outside the Oceanic Continent. He must know this but didn't report it to him.

Now the way he whispered to Vincent Shen, telling him that his guess was correct.

Recently, his daughter traveled to P Country to open a branch of her jewelry store. But that was just a month ago, and his daughter is almost two months pregnant!

Something is going on here. It's not the only thing that's strange here... The Shen Group signed a contract with them just a month ago. Nothing coincided either the time of the DV Asia Branch launching and the handing of the project by his very own daughter, who made sure Vincent Shen could sign the contract ASAP!

She even argued with the boys! He remembered that.

"Can anyone care to explain now?" Jacob echoed what Geoffrey had been asked. His gaze shifted back and forth at Pitt, Bryan, and Vincent Shen.

"Now… Tell me what happened? Why was the princess under such terrible stress? Is it you, Bryan?" asked James, squeezing his knuckles, preparing to throw them at any moment.

Bryan cast a glance at James; he then fixed his eyes on Jacob. He lowered his head to apologize.

"I'm sorry, Uncle Jacob. I was the one to blame the most here. I will take full responsibility for what happened to Hailee."

"Do you think your sorry would save the princess if she had a miscarriage? You put her life in grave danger! Not only that, you almost break her heart again! What do you think she will feel after losing her baby?" Geoffrey roared at Bryan. He took a step to punch him, but Leo and Chester quickly grabbed his shoulders and arms.

"It won't help if we keep shouting in the corridor." Trevor made a calm comment.

"Think about the princess. What would she feel if she heard us all fighting?" Josh chimed in.

Kelvin also expressed himself. "The doctor just told us not to cause any stress to the princess. She should feel at peace instead."

"Let's just set aside any dispute we have for Bryan. Like what the doctor said, let's focus on the princess to get feeling better." Pitt asserted.

But James is always the hard-headed one among the knights. He snorted at Pitt and muttered, "Says of the guy who almost killed Bryan after he beat him up. Do you both reconcile now? Best friend again?"

"Enough, James! That won't help!" Pitt snaps at him again. "Our friendship is broken forever. I'm just speaking on behalf of the princess. Besides, the major cause of her stress is Liam."

"What!?"

"Was that guy able to get near the princess? When does it happen? Why aren't you telling us, Pitt?!"

"It's a long story. But Liam is now apprehended by International Law. Chairman Shun Crow and President Shen help the Asian Knights to set a trap on Liam. I was to be blamed too because I used the princess as bait."

"Pitterson Cha!" James rushed toward Pitt, but Kelvin and Alfie quickly pulled him away. "Let me go!"

"How come that Mr. Shen was involved in this?" asked Jacob, his eyes darted at Vincent.

"The princess was in great anxiety when Liam plotted to kill Vincent." Pitt carried on explaining. The men fixed their eyes on Vincent, shooting an intense glare at him.

In their minds, they could already have the conclusion of where this story goes. Vincent Shen is the princess's lover! Now it makes sense! The post was made when the princess was in P Country. And Vincent Shen went home at the time of the launch!

The timeline is screaming out loud, including the reality that the princess and Vincent Shen were already in a relationship before he submitted a proposal, then was approved real quick, then he was offered a contract!

Then can it be the case?

The princess offers Vincent Shen a contract because he is her lover?
