<h4>Chapter 196 - Set An Appointment In Her Office</h4>


    After Hailey had the interview, she posted a statement at DV Gem Asia Branch official Instagram ount after half an hour. In her post, with the photo of the jewelry she gave to Hilda Shen, she rifies her response to the interview.


    *Hello everybody, this is Hailey Hillson. I made this post to give some rification in my answer half an hour ago. I felt that my response wasn''t proper, to begin with.


    The night Vincent asked me to help him pick a gift for his mom, it made me truly happy, although I am concerned about whether his mom would like the birthday present I will choose. Nevertheless, I love to help him.


    After Vincent and I talked on the phone, I asked myself. If my mom is still alive, what gift should I give her? What present do I want to receive that I would feel special and loved?


    I grew up receiving a personalized gift from people that are dear to me. And yes, they are expensive. But as I see they were custom made, I was extremely pleased that they prepared a birthday present made just for me.


    So, an idea came to me. How about jewelry, particrly a ne?


    That same night, I worked on my MacBook, and within that night—I finished the design before I went to bed. With the help of an artisan friend who crafted these pieces, my simple design shines.


    And even though Vincent permitted me ess to his bank ount, I did notpensate him with any amount but gave the jewelry out of my love for him.


    How much the jewelry set costs me does not matter, but the person who will receive this gift.


    My love for Vincent is unconditional, and there should be no price to put on it.


    He is sincere in making his mom''s birthday as special as these passing years. And I, to choose a gift for the first woman in his life is such an honor.


    Thank you.*


    With the statement she posted,izens and social media reporters are now storming her post,menting, and hitting the heart button.


    Everyone is praising Hailey and others,menting on how lucky Vincent is to have such a wonderful and thoughtful girlfriend, and so his mom, Hilda Shen, should feel grateful.

    It has been days had passed since the DV Gem store opened, Hailey started taking office at Shen Tower.


    Things are running smoothly so far even they were so busy with the orders they''ve received each day. She is grateful that the general store managers from other branches stayed for more days to help amodate more clients in the passing days.


    And since they keep receiving reservations, Hailey extended the promo sale to five days instead of three days only, so as not for the people rushing to the store to ce their orders which barely they could attend all of them in one day.


    Metro City suddenly flooded with more tourists in the country because of Hailey''s promotional announcement. As a result, more guests continue to arrive in the city in the passing days, which most of the? DV Gem clients from neighboring countries came personally to discuss their orders. After then, several of these clients traveled to local towns and inds to visit beaches while waiting for their demands after a week or two.


    While on the wait, they''ve discovered several ces that are perfect spots to do a Pre-Wedding Photoshoot.


    This morning, the city''s official website published an article sending its gratitude to DV Inc. for attracting many tourists by opening an Asia branch store branch in Metro City. In addition, the city mayor is honoring thepany owners for choosing Metro City as its new home.


    At the moment, Gigi, Dana, Leticia, Fraine, and the head of every department of the branch office were currently at the long table inside Hailey''s office.


    "Hail, what are we going to do?" Gigi asked; she then brought up the problem they were facing at the opening of the new branch. "Maybe we should ask our other artisans to help the Asia branch to speed the orders?"


    Since the opening,tely, they were doing three meetings every day to monitor all the orders, sort out things, and then update their sales in the passing days.


    Checking the reports on her hand, Hailey lifted her gaze from the folders.


    "I''ve been thinking about that, too," she agreed immediately. "We have to ask each one crafter from our other branches and an artist to help amodate more clients for their desired designs."


    The other women concurred with the idea. That day, Hailey made several phone calls to their branch stores. She then instructed the HR Chief Officer to amodate the new teams arriving the next day.


    Hailey was typing a report when a knock on her office door followed Gigi''s delicate voice.


    "Hail? Fraine and I will go back to the store now. I might note back to the officeter."


    "Okay." she nodded with a smile. "Thank you for today. Take care on your way back."


    "You''re wee, silly." Gigi giggled. She nted a kiss on her cheek before she left. "Bye!"


    *


    It is past lunch. She has been busytely, and it''s rare for her to talk to Vince longer because of herte meetings before she headed home at night.


    Hailey nced at her wristwatch. Vince was still up this time around. Indeed he was working on his designs for the Shang Hotel and Casino renovation, so she decided to message Vince and wait for his call.


    "Wifey?"


    "Hubby! How was your day?" she asked cheerfully. Suddenly, she felt recharged hearing his sexy voice.


    "It''s fine. How about you? You have been too busytely." Vinceined from the other line. In the passing days, he can''t talk to her longer, but often just quick calls.


    "Yeah. We are flooded with orders. So I need to sort everything out and make sure that the production does not dy." She exined; she heard Vince heaving a sigh from the other line. "What''s wrong, hubby?"


    "Nothing. I just realized that Hailee Davies was busy as this... Is it hard to reach her out during the day unless she needs something from me… Hmm?" Vince''s voice is a little teasing, causing Hailey to burst intoughter.


    "Haha! Yes, I have! I called you because I have some business to talk with you about."


    "Ouch. Only for business, huh? Well, if you have forgotten, I want you to remember that I''m offering an extra service. As you know, my body is avable anytime to serve you. How was that? You''re not going to ask how are my musclestely?"


    He appears to talk tenderly, but it sounded like a joke, and it made Haileyughs aloud, listening to his corny but sweet mumbling.


    "Yes, hubby. Don''t worry. Hailey Hillson will do the job with your body during the night. How was that?" she answered with her flirty voice.


    And because of her statement, Vince filled her ears with his exyughs since she''s wearing wireless headphones. She then mumbled on the other line, "Hubby, I need a massage and someone to cuddle me each night."


    She heard Vince groan, then expressed, "I would love to be your ve, my darling."


    She squeals like she''s gone back to being a teenager. So then, she returned a tease. "I''m going to bite you so hard soon youe back, hubby."


    "Ugh! Don''t say that. Might I fly there now to strip in front of you... How was that?"


    "Hm… Inside my office?" she muttered hoarsely, challenging his resistance.


    Vince''s eyes flickered at how flirty she sounded was. But, of course, there is no way he would back down. "That''s a promise, hm?"


    ''Oh, my gosh!'' Did they just set an appointment to make love inside her office!? Even though she was alone in her office, her face turned scarlet red as Vince excites her whole being.


    "Hubby… Do you know I can fly anytime to see you?"


    "Don''t tease me, Wifey. Or I will spank you hard for being a teaser."


    "What if I want to be spank?" she teased Vince further; both areughing so hard. Later, it was Hailey whoined. "Hubby, enough. My tummy hurts now."


    "Hm… I''m going back soon. I will spank you hard. Makes sure to remember that."


    Hailey bites her lower lip. This man is making her crazy in the middle of the day. But she knew Vince also could feel her effect on him.


    "Ahem. So, what can I do for my boss?" Vince asked after they settled down fromughing.


    Hailey smiles at how extra flirty Vince is today. "Hubby, I need more apartments for my employees. I added more artisan to help the Asia branch craft workers. We received thousands of orders just in three days since our opening. I will send Mr. Cha to talk to your caretaker."


    Vince fell silent for a moment before he replied. "Boss, have you forgotten how you amodate us in Australia?"


    "Oh… Um…" Hailey is a little confused. She can''t follow what Vince is talking about now, so she listens.


    "Are you serious about paying rent on your owned property?" he then asked.


    "Huh?" Hailey tried to process Vince''s statement as she still doesn''t understand.


    "Silly. Of course, everything I have and everything I own is yours. I told you, tell me whatever you need. I may not be there, but I will move mountains and seas to be at your service."


    "Hubby, you are bing so sweet and corny. Tell me more, please!"


    Vinceughed out loud. He''s thankful he''s alone in the room or else? There''s no way he could be this flirty! But this is how a person in love behaved was like, right?


    "Wifey, you can use any of our buildings. Even the Shen Tower where you had your office is yours too. Please do what you need. If you want any renovation of the floors and spaces for the crafters, you must send Mr. Cha to talk to my architects and engineers."


    "Hubby, you are the best!"


    "Whatever you need, call thepany to do it asap, okay?"


    "Thank you so much, hubby!" she eximed happily from the other line.


    Now, this is how it feels when a power couple works together. She could openly discuss with Vince about herpany and things she would need to do.


    "I love you, Vincent Shen."


    "I love you too, Hailee Hillson Davies."


    She giggles every time she hears Vince muttering her full name.


    "Let''s go back to Australia together soon," she told Vince.


    "I would love to, boss."


    Hailey parted her lips with a sweet smile. Vincent had several endearments he is using toward hertely, and she loves it. Well, they had the agreement that she will be his everything.


    She was still in the middle of flirting with Vince when another call came in on her phone screen.


    "Hubby, Gigi is calling me. I have to answer this. It must be important."


    "Okay, wifey. Talk to you againter."


    She hangs up on Vince after a few exchanges of words; then, she answers Gigi''s call. She had just left not long ago, so she wondered if Gigi forgot something.


    "Hello, Gigi?"


    "Hello, sweetheart?"


    Hailey widened her eyes upon recognizing the man at the end of the call.


    "Why did you have Gigi''s phone? Where is she, Liam!?"
