Chapter 366 - Future Gift (1/2)
Vince let Hailee go after the passionate kiss they'd shared. They held hands, walking out of the suite room to join everyone having breakfast at the dining hall.
”Aunt Farah! Uncle Amir!” Hailee rushed toward their table and gave Kelly's mom a warm hug. ”I'm glad you had a safe flight.”
”Thank you, sweetheart.” Farah placed Hailee a kiss on the forehead like a mother conveyed her love to her daughter.
”Please, let the front desk know if you need anything. The weather is still colder, and I will send the housekeeping to check your suite's temperature.”
”Ah, this child. We are fine. Besides, Alexander is accommodating as well.” Amir, who is familiar with Hailee's thoughtfulness, is still overwhelmed by being treated specially.
He was always in Dubai to take care of his family business in the past decades, and Kelly was only left in Australia. Then he heard about his daughter's best friend, who was very kind to her.
And soon after these two graduated from college and started their own business, he witnessed how they treated each other like sisters.
On the other hand, Hailee and Alex shared a look. She gives her cousin an invincible thumbs up and congratulates him that he is doing a good job impressing his future in-laws.
”I'm glad to hear, Uncle Amir. Then tell Alex if you want a hotel service if you prefer to dine inside your suites. Granny Jamila must be left in the room. Please, tell her I will visit her later after my prenatal check-up.”
”Oh! When could we find out their gender? By the way, why is Kelly hasn't been pregnant yet?”
At what her mother had said, Kelly was choked with the omelet she was chewing. She couldn't stop her mother from continuing mumbling when her throat was itchy.
Alex handed her a glass of water, then rubbed her back. She is glaring at him as the guy had that sparks in his eyes, hopeful that it was the permission he was waiting for.
Even though Kelly's family thought they were in that kind of relationship already, Alex still respects her. But with what her mother said, it was a kind of encouragement. He wanted to take this chance to have a baby with Kelly.
However…
”Don't you dare!” Kelly hissed at Alex and said in a meager voice. ”You promised already!”
It made Alex gloomy, but it's just in mere seconds, and he cares more about Kelly's feelings. As she said, he promised already, so he doesn't want to break that unless Kelly will seduce him.
Alex smiles at his silly thoughts. It may be true he persuades Kelly using his shameless moves, but not to sleep with her. He is serious about making her his wife because he genuinely loves her dearly.
He took Kelly's hand and planted a kiss on the back of her palm. Then, he whispered to her ear. ”I know, and I will never forget what I promised. Don't worry. I will wait until the night of our wedding. However, you can always seduce me.”
Kelly suppressed not to giggle. She smiled and secretly pinched Alex by the waist.
Since the night Alex promised he would not touch her, the guy never stepped on the line. Honestly, they were in the same bed, but the farthest they went to was kissing passionately and hugging each other while sleeping.
And so, she promised to offer her whole being to Alex once they tie the knot.
”Kalila, you are not listening.”
Kelly's train of thoughts interrupted after her father called out her name many times. She didn't notice he was talking to her.
”I'm sorry, Pa! I'm just thinking of checking out Hailee's jewelry for the wedding after breakfast. I must make sure everything is ready!”
It was a lame excuse, but she didn't want to explain what was running through her mind to her father. It was something inappropriate!
”Have you visited a gynecologist and got a check-up?”
Out of the blue, her father asked this trivial question, and so she returned to ask. ”Why would I do that?”
