Chapter 396 - Got Your Back (1/2)

State of Tasmania

Anchored near the city port, Hailee got dressed to have a night stroll at Hobart. She was putting on light makeup and tied her hair into a ponytail.

Hailee's eyes glued to the mirror, drooling at that handsome man putting on clothes behind her.

Vincent's movement was in a hurry but remained graceful the way he fixed his shirt around his body.

He turned around, instantly the corner of his mouth pushed into a smile when his wife gawked at him.

Those burning eyes told him of something. And if he will allow himself to be tempted, there will be no more night out tonight in the city but another wild night with this girl.

Vincent took the comb from Hailee and helped her tie her hair.

Hailee, on the one hand, remains to stare at her husband. It's rare for her to see Vincent in casual attire, as he often sees him in the suit.

But damn! Vincent wearing jeans, a white turtleneck shirt made him look manly and boyish at the same time.

Vincent's office suit makes him look like a mature, hardworking man, but now that he is only wearing casual clothes, her husband is more appealing and desirable.

On the other hand, Vincent could read what was running on Hailee's mind. He knew her hormones were always kicking in, but they had to limit it and take it slowly.

She's not just conceiving three but four babies in her belly.

And going out tonight is the best way to distract themselves and enough activity to tire this girl, so then she'll just go to bed when they come back to the yacht.

”Come on. I'll help you put on your coat.”

Vincent helps Hailee get up from the stool; he walks toward the cabinet where they hang their coats.

He chooses the white fur coat and drapes it around Hailee's shoulders. And for himself, he chooses a gray trench coat.

Hailee is wearing pink leggings and red knitted high neck and long sleeves. Vincent helped Hailee put on her socks and pink boots.

Now that her belly is swollen and bigger. She started having difficulty bending and putting on shoes.

Hailee throws her arms after Vincent straightens his body. She coquettishly rubs her body as she mutters, ”Thank you, daddy.”

Vincent always had a feeling of warmth surging inside his chest every time Hailee called him daddy.

He could not help but bend and place a loving kiss on Hailee's baby bump and replied, ”I love you, all.” Then, claim his sweet wife's lips.

”Let's go.”

Hand in hand, Vincent and Hailee went to the hangar where a smaller yacht was waiting for them.

Pitt presses a button. A door on the side opens, and he releases the two boats.

When all set, Vincent clasped Hailee's hand and carried her to board the boat.

The sunset was not too long ago, but the city lights have already lit. Every street was decorated with beautiful flowers and lanterns.

The city is welcoming them in silence.

Hailee and Vincent saw the banners with congratulations and best wishes.

Everyone in the state was already aware that they were traveling to Tasmania for their honeymoon. But Jacob, lord of the Oceania Continent, requested not to post any information and stole a shot when they spotted the newlywed on the island.

The residents respected these requests; however, it wouldn't stop them from expressing their delight.

Hailee had enjoyed the streets of Hobart City.

Many people they meet, but everyone pretends they are just an ordinary couple who choose Tasmania to hold their honeymoon.

Anyway, patrol police were clothed in casual winter outfits and casually lounging around the city for silent protection to the princess. They know very well that few paparazzi would be persistent and not afraid to take a risk to get a photo of the couple.

”We're here, hubby!” Hailee drags Vince inside her fave restaurant here in Hobart.

Jacob already reserved the place as part of the itinerary for the newlywed's honeymoon trip in Tasmania. Tomorrow, they were sailing to visit other localities on the island before Hailee and Vincent stayed at the Davies Chateau for another week before heading to Sydney.

”Welcome, Mr. and Mrs. Shen!”

The restaurant manager warmly welcomes them. She then escorted them to their table in the middle of the hall.

”Thank you.” Hailee thanked the manager.

”Please, enjoy and relax...” said the manager before she left. She then went to the pianist she booked to play tonight, especially for their special guest.

Hailee smiled to listen to the soothing sound of the piano. It made her remember her mom, Marilyn.

But Hailee stops learning to play the piano because she misses her mom. Her mom is often playing the piano while she is also singing. And so, no one has been playing the piano anymore in many years.

Vincent knew this story. His hand instantly reached for hers and covered them with his.

”Don't you want me to dance?” Asked Hailee to Vincent playfully.

He curled his lips and replied, ”I love to, but aren't you tired?”

”I would love to dance.”
