Chapter 109 - Someone Who Could Discipline His Daughter

On the one hand, Vincent didn\'t flinch from the rules he learned today. He nods at James, then pursed his lips into a smile. "Sure. Thank you for making it clear."

Vincent was grateful that no one was paying attention to him at the moment, and the rest were busy chatting with one another.

This time, the table was already cleared out, but no one hurried to leave among the executives except the engineers and architects from another firm that one by one goes back to their assigned site.

The chairman also stayed and talked closely to Geoffrey. Vincent realized that Bryan is the Vice President of the company. Still, the chairman seemed working closely with Geoffrey, and the person relaying messages toward their female boss is also him.

Vincent pondered over it. Not only that, he could feel an awkward atmosphere between the executives toward a particular person who stayed silent the entire lunch.

It was the Davies Group Vice President, Bryan Anderson.

He wondered if it was just his observation, or it was because of what he witnessed earlier. After the call, he seemed bothered by it but made an effort to act professionally in front of him, suppressing his unpleasant emotion during work.

Now Bryan appeared lost, and his thoughts were somewhere.

Vincent was in deep thoughts when his ear caught a chime from someone\'s phone. It was the chairman\'s phone.

Jacob quickly answered the call, and everyone fell silent once they had guessed who it was.

"I\'m thrilled to see you soon, Princess. Please, don\'t delay another day anymore. We\'ve missed you already!" Jacob made a delightful conversation with his daughter.

She is supposed to be here last weekend, but for some reason, Hailey had to reschedule her flight. His daughter explained nothing, and he avoided asking questions.

Deep down in his heart. He still blames himself for why his daughter\'s heart is broken. If he didn\'t meddle, maybe none of that in the past had happened that changed everything.

Jacob glanced at Bryan and then swept his eyes to the rest of the boys in front of him. Among them all, it was Bryan, who Hailey listened to while the rest only spoiled his daughter once she made a request, even if what she wanted was dangerous.

That is why he decided that Hailey must get married sooner. And the son-in-law he preferred is someone who could discipline his daughter instead of spoiling her all the time; there should be a limit to it.

Jacob\'s situation is the opposite among other father\'s intentions why they wanted their daughter to get married at an early age. His is different reasons.

Jacob wanted Hailey to tie in a marriage so that she would stop traveling alone. And if ever she continued to travel the world, someone could accompany her, and she would not reason out that she didn\'t need a chaperone because she\'s already an adult. And so he feared his daughter\'s safety by traveling alone, especially when she took her yacht. It was the reason he bought his daughter a private plane.

Jacob was helpless. He thought that marriage could make her daughter stay in Australia.

That is why he supported Bryan when he proposed to his daughter. Hailey must have a husband who can handle her behavior. She is impulsive at some point.

Indeed, his daughter needs a man, who she would listen to, a husband who had the strength to reprimand her.

But because of his irrational decision, now this happens.

Jacob sighed inwardly. He constantly pondered if things remained the same if he didn\'t encourage Hailey\'s early marriage.

To repent his mistake, he let Hailey mend her broken heart somewhere she didn\'t share where. It enticed him to order his men to investigate his daughter\'s whereabouts. He believes Hailey went somewhere.

But he\'s afraid that Hailey would hate him this time. Somehow, his daughter has her own way of knowing if he sent someone to follow her.

It\'s been a year, but Jacob still has a heavy heart. He wished for his daughter\'s happiness and promised himself not to meddle anymore but give his daughter the freedom to get married, eventually.

All he could do now is praying that she would fall in love with someone who would love her truly as well and would never hurt her.

Whoever that man is, either from an excellent family or not, he doesn\'t care anymore as long as he could make his daughter happy again.

"See you soon, Princess. Have a safe flight." Jacob wishes for his daughter.

He put down his phone after Hailey ended the call. He swept his eyes toward the boys and chatted with them again.

On the sideline, Vincent carefully studied the chairman. He seems sad. And probably the reason for it is his daughter.

It seemed challenging to meet his female boss, thought Vincent.

Alright! Vincent thinks this is the perfect moment to excuse himself. He walked toward an empty table near the glass window and sat down on the chair, then took out his phone and placed the earphones on his ears.

He waited for the call to connect. After five rings, it connected him to Hailey. His eyes didn\'t leave on the screen to appear the beautiful woman he misses already.

Meanwhile, somewhere in Palm Island, Hailey stared at her phone for three seconds. Vince is doing a video call! Thank god, and she was still on the island.

"Hi!" she finally swiped the green button. She asked, "How was it?"

"Everything is fine. How are you?" Vince returned a question. He peered at his phone screen lovingly; a desire crept toward his heart. He badly wanted to kiss the beautiful woman that appeared on his phone screen.

"I\'m great!" Hailey responded. She tried to hide her nervousness. It frightened her that anyone from the boys was near Vince and accidentally saw her. "So, where are you? Have you had lunch?"

"Ah, yes. I\'ve just finished eating. So, I\'m still here in the Cafeteria." Vince replied.

"I see. I\'m glad." Hailey pursed her lips into a sweet smile, not for Vince to notice she\'s anxious.

"How about you? It will be lunchtime there soon."

Hailey answered, "Ah, yes. But they served me a delicious breakfast. Honestly, I\'m still full! I don\'t think I can stuff my stomach yet."

"Great! I\'m glad you were enjoying the island."

Hailey saw Vince heave a sigh; sadness flashed in his eyes. She asked curiously. "What\'s wrong? Is there any problem on your first day?"

\'Are the boys weren\'t nice to him?\' Hailey wondered. She\'s praying that the boys would not make things hard for Vince. The boys were always hostile to all single men that wanted to get close to her.

Hailey watched Vince pursing his lips into a smile.

"Don\'t worry. Everyone is nice and welcomes me with warmth, even Chairman Davies."

Hailey felt relieved hearing this. It made her happy that everyone is accommodating Vince well. But then she remembered one thing. It\'s Bryan!

Vince and Bryan finally met! It made her wonder if what would happen when Vince found out the truth, as well as Bryan.

Moreover, Eva was in Australia!
