His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 380 - It Is Time!

After the baby shower party, Shun gathered all of Hailee's knights and his men to give an important order. After a briefing, the majority of them left Dream City to pick up the assigned personage they have to escort and safely arrive in the city.

Standing near the floor-ceiling window, Hailee and Vincent watch the beautiful night sky from their hotel suite. They wished to stay with everyone until late at night, and however, they have a pre-wedding photoshoot first thing tomorrow morning.

After such a revelation, Hailee was conceiving a quadruplet. No one is happier but them as the new parents.

To clarify why it didn't detect the fourth baby in the previous ultrasound, Doctor Dave was invited to the stage to explain it.

An ultrasound image is displayed on the screen while Doctor Dave explains.

"The first ultrasound I performed only showed the third baby's back. But then, after I performed the recent ultrasound, I saw one of them is hugging his sibling."

"Oh…" the crowd gasps in wonder.

"This is a boy, and the baby he embraces is a girl. So I concluded it was the reason I didn't detect the fourth baby, but only just recently."

Thanks to advanced technology, complicated things can make it possible.

It amazed everyone to see that big brother was already protective of his sister.

"Just like his daddy!" Sheena remarked after remembering how supportive her brother was. Even though Vincent is too busy, when he has had time, he will check her out if she is doing well and the kids.

Deana felt the same, too. Vincent didn't forget to send her messages asking her and Wallace. Vincent showed little emotion outside, but he didn't hide his worries toward them like his sisters.

Now everyone was overwhelmed to see such a beautiful sight of the babies inside Hailee's womb.

The happiest couple at this moment is the new mom and dad. It delighted Hailee and Vincent to see their son would protect their little sister.

And this brought warmth into Hailee's heart. She grows up as an only child. Just later in her childhood, she had a bunch of protected boys after her mom died.

"I love you, Mrs. Shen."

It was Vincent's gentle voice that pulled her back to her senses. Hailee looked at Vince and softened her gaze. She caressed her baby bump and said,

"Babies, it will be daddy's birthday in the next two days."

Vincent flickers his eyes, hearing Hailee say this. It was an overwhelming feeling that in the following years, he would celebrate his birthday with the family he could call his own… together with the only woman he ever loved and their four babies. Soon there will be more.

"I like that," said Vince to Hailee, brushing his lips on top of his.

Vincent carried Hailee and placed her on the bed, pulling up the sheets and covering both of their bodies. So gentle, Hailee could feel Vince's movement.

Tonight, they hold each other like there is no tomorrow with a content smile on their lips.

The following day, Hailee's makeup artist, hairdresser, and wardrobe stylist came to prepare Hailee for the wedding photoshoot.

During their stay at P Country, they already had pre-wedding pictures at Shen Mansion taken in the garden.

Today, Hailee and Vincent will have their photoshoots at different locations throughout Dream City.

There are shots taken at the hilltop where they plan to build their castle. There is also in front of La Fraire Courtyard and the whole construction site as background.

Hailee realized. There is a beautiful reason her city hasn't finished yet.

With a view of different construction sites, the entire city plays a big part in their life and love life.

Before the photoshoots ended, Hailee and Vincent changed their outfit to more simple ones.

Vincent is wearing a navy suit, and while Hailee is wearing an all-white coat and long pants, both are also wearing a safety helmet.

It was evening. The workers were asked to take part in these photoshoots. Wearing their construction uniforms with all the safety gear, they pretend to work at the moment.

Jessa's team was also on standby to record everything. Drones were flying above Dream City to film and take aerial shots.

It was breathtaking scenery.

Hailee and Vincent are standing under the Arch in the middle of Dream City.

Behind them is an ongoing construction of numerous modern residential and commercial skyscrapers.

Jessa posted another sneak preview of Hailee and Vincent's documentary. It was their pre-wedding photoshoot when Hailee was wearing a stylish white office suit.

The netizens cannot have enough of the caption.

"Lady Boss and an Architect Love Story"

One comment that was concurred by many. "It was so perfect!"

"Lady Boss is a hot Mumma!"

"Yes! Queen is blooming! We are also shocked that its quadruplets, not just triplets!"

"The preggy queen is looking even prettier!"

"Our queen is happy and content!"

"Yes, I could see that too?"

"Did you see how tender Mr. Shen looked at his wife? I died!"

"They look so in love!"

The entire world cannot stop commenting on Jessa and Sheena's posts on their social media accounts.

Dream City Palace Garden

It was a courtyard behind the main building where the bride and groom could stay overnight, along with their bridesmaids and groomsmen.

After an exclusive dinner, Vincent had a few glasses of champagne with his groomsmen in the left wing of the building, while Hailee had a spa over tea with her bridesmaids on the right wing. The girls had only light meals, as they wanted to keep the figure. They worked hard to look sexy and stunning wearing the bridesmaid's gowns.

Starting tonight, the place was heavily locked with security by Hailee's knights and Shun's men led by Daichi Isagawa and Matt Lawrence.

After catching an unauthorized drone flying around Dream City, Shun assigned his best men to look after Hailee and Vincent.

The Royals and Mafia Lords are now gathered in the city.

Even after a strict security protocol for all guests and deliveries entering the city, Shun didn't slack off, assuring everyone's safety.

Many talented individuals are invited to this wedding, whom they know how to improvise bombs from ordinary materials. Shun couldn't care less.

There are secret groups formed from influential people who are now in Dream City.

Those who are members of the revolutionary group under his reign are Liam's subordinates and carried an order to kill Vincent in exchange for his silence to confess their names to him.

Shun is still gathering the complete list of elite people taking part in illegal activities, especially those supporting in kicking him from his seat.

At midnight, August 28, 2026, the very day of their wedding, Hailee posted a birthday greeting for Vincent.

A photo is taken inside their suite; a cake, cheese, and two glasses of sparkling wine are on a tray above the bed. Hailee sang a happy birthday, and then Vincent blew a candle.

Hailee persuaded Vincent to make a brief speech, aiming the camera at him. "Come on, hubby!"

Vincent had a charming smile on his lips upon staring at Hailee, persuading him to deliver a message. She is using her childish behavior, coquettishly urging him to speak.

Soon, he leaned over and kissed Hailee on the lips.

"Thank you for coming into my life and giving me four children at once. It's the best birthday gift I ever received."

She is the one who urged Vince to express a few words. But then, she was the one in teary-eyed now.

"I love you," said Vincent lovingly. He was wiping the tears, drying them by brushing his lips into his eyes.

"I love you too, hubby."

The short video Hailee posted with a caption, "I want to be the first person to greet your special day. Happy Birthday, Daddy!"

"Thank you, my Empress."

Vincent commented on Hailee's post, which was feasted on by netizens around the globe to wish him a happy birthday and praise and adore him.

"Oh, my gosh! Did you see that? Mr. Shen called our queen `` My Empress!"

"Yay! Our Empress Hailee!"

"So sweet of Mr. Shen! Our queen is so fit to be called Empress!"

Hailee's post on Instagram was flooded with messages from their families, relatives, and friends. Even celebrities, tycoons, fashion houses, fashion magazines, leading car manufacturers, and all big brands across the globe leave a birthday greeting for Vincent and wishes for the soon-to-be wedded couple.

A loud rang of bells from Dream City Cathedral that is inspired by the Renaissance period echoed throughout the city.

The sun had just risen. A warm kiss on her cheek woke up Hailee, and she moaned and hugged the man next to her.

"Good morning, Mr. Shen…."

"Good morning, Mrs. Shen..." Vince placed a kiss on her lips that took longer to end. "I have to go to prepare for our wedding."

"Hmmm…" Hailee's humming is filled with protest, and she wants to stay in bed and remain to hug Vince to feel his warm body.

She buried her face between his neck, making Vince tickle a bit. He chuckled and kissed her forehead.

"I will prepare the bath now," said Vincent.

"Okay."

Finally, Hailee let him go. Soon Vincent came back and carried her toward the warm bathtub and helped her have a bath.

"Hailee! It is time!"

Once Vince leaves the room to head to his groomsmen and the stylists to help him prepare for his wedding, Hailee's bridesmaids emerge to take her to the lounge, where they will do their makeup and hairdos, then get dressed.
