His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 82 - Meeting Her (Three)

Later on, Vincent accompanied Sheena, visiting Stephen's family living in Budapest's countryside. Stephen's family is very hospitable, and he could see how they treated her niece like their very own granddaughter.

He was here to meet them and make sure that Sheena and Lena would be in good hands as his sister accepted Stephen's marriage proposal.

But Vincent had another plan for why he is here. He didn't share it with Sheena yet but waited for a perfect moment so that he could talk to her alone later.

After a merry dinner, Vincent was waiting until Sheena could send Lena to bed.

At the moment, he is seated on the porch alone.

He took out his phone and checked his Gallery looking at the particular photos.

"She's pretty."

Sheena showed up behind. Vincent looked up and made a lame excuse, even though he was caught red-handed. "I... I was checking my Gallery to delete unnecessary photos."

"Really? And you were saying you plan to delete her photos?" Sheena pursed a playful smile across her face. Her dear brother was already caught but still denying he truly likes the girl on his phone.

"She's not my girlfriend. Why should I keep her photos? It's more like stalking. Do you understand that, my little sister?"

"You know what, brother? There is one solution to your dilemma. Ask her out when you go back to the city tomorrow."

"You've started again." Vincent frowned but in a playful way. His little sister is always a naughty girl, and this is what he misses about her.

"I'm serious, brother. I don't remember you looking at a girl the way you stare at her. That is why I could tell that you like Hailey."

Vince chuckled. "You are serious, huh?"

"I am! Do you know how those socialites crawled their way to get too close to Deena and me? It was because they wanted to hook up with you! And you can guess the following history. To corner you by having a one-night stand."

"Alright, fine. I know you are this smart." Vincent pokes Sheena's nose.

She added to her statement, "And the rest of those women are not good enough for you, so…"

"And so, you have your very own way for them not to get close to me."

"Yup! I wanted the best for you." Sheena smiled. "I meant it, brother."

"And do you think she is the best for me?" he queried.

"We can't say a final word unless you try it out?" And she meant it to encourage her brother to do something with his love life.

"Okay, but I came here not to look for a date. I want to know if your mind's made up already. I mean, all I wish is for you to be happy. I won't stop you, but I want to make sure this is what your heart really wanted."

"I do, brother. Stephen makes me like a queen despite the simple things he could only offer me. But I'm content with our life. I don't live in a mansion anymore, with nannies and bodyguards following me around. I'm not the princess who can get all she wanted anymore. But I have never been happy like when I was with Stephen."

"I'm glad. That's all I wanted to know." Vincent stretched his arm to reach Sheena's head and patted her. "I have something for you."

Vincent pulled out an envelope inside his jacket and handed it to his sister. Sheena opens the envelope and reads what is written on the documents. Her eyes widened.

"What is this, brother?"

"When you go back to Paris. I want you to take any courses you like."

Tears welled up in Sheena's eyes. It surprised her to see the documents in her hand. She dreams of it but didn't expect to receive it tonight. Of course, she wished to get to college. "You don't need to do this!"

"Don't worry. It was dad. I only help a little." Vincent explained. Their father is too busy at their company, and Vincent did everything to remind his dad about helping Sheena with something. And their mom did not know of it because she wanted to punish Sheena.

"Oh!" Sheena jumped with happiness after learning about it. "Tell dad, thank you, and I'm so sorry I have been a worthless daughter."

"Don't say that. He misses you so much, and he wanted to meet his granddaughter."

"Oh. I miss dad badly! Lena would be happy to meet his granddad. I wish he were here tomorrow." Tears began forming in her eyes once again.

Sheena wipes her face and smiles. She is not completely alone, though. Vincent came all the way here to Hungary to attend her wedding tomorrow. Deena wished to come, but it was her due this week with her first daughter, and she will see her soon! Deena and her husband Wallace sent them tickets for a trip to England as their honeymoon present.

"Thank you very much for coming to my wedding." Emotion made her voice crack. It does touch her how Vincent never stopped standing up as a family.

"Hey, you have to stay pretty for your wedding tomorrow. Your eyes start swollen." Vincent jokes, and it causes Sheena to giggle. Later, he pulled out another white envelope and placed it into Sheena's hand. "Now, let me give you my wedding gift for you and Stephen."

Sheena opens the second envelope with a confusing look on her face. After she sees what's inside, she lifts her head and gives Vincent a questioning gaze. "Brother? What is this?"

"I heard Stephen wanted to run his own kitchen. So, maybe it will help for a great start."

Sheena jumped and hugged Vincent tight. "I don't know what to say, but thank you, brother! Really... Stephen wanted to start his own restaurant, and I want to help him manage it. His parents would love to help as well, but Stephen wants us to get married first. And so, his parents make everything possible for tomorrow's unforgettable moment of my life. I mean, it is one of countless best moments of my life."

"It made me glad to see you happy."

"It won't be complete without you." She said with honesty. "I wish dad and mom accept Stephen, and we would not keep it a secret."

That is true. Their mom already expressed herself that she is against Sheena marrying a guy who is only a chef. Now she keeps her wedding a secret, but her siblings only knew about it.

"Our parents want the best for us. But they didn't see one thing, and that is who you love. I think Stephen is a great chef. The food he prepared at supper is wonderful."

Sheena felt delighted to hear this from Vincent. It made her happy that Vincent didn't make things hard for Stephen. "Thank you for trusting him, brother."

"You choose him, and if he can make you happy. I must support that," Vincent stated wholeheartedly.
