His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 124 - Beautiful Memories (Two)



Bryan gapes at this beautiful lady inside his arms. He is tempted to caress her smooth skin but looking at her eyes twinkled from innocence; there's a knife stabbing his heart. His guilt and conscience. 

He presses his mouth, tightening his jaw. He let go of Hailey and mess up her hair instead. 

Deep down inside, he is fighting against the monster that grows stronger every time he sees her. Bryan numbed his head from crazy thoughts. The boys greetings him with a happy birthday, which helps to avert his attention to something else. 

It was one in the morning, but the table in the dining hall was filled with different cuisine. After eating the food they prepared, the boys start drinking. 

"Andre, can I have a taste of that?" Hailey asked while her palms clasped together and her chin rested above it. 

Andre and Geoffrey look at each other. Hailey was still a minor. Even if it says she'll be eighteen soon, still she's a baby for them. 

"No, you can't," said Andre, then he ponders for a moment. "I'll go and check the Bar if it has something with very low alcohol or none at all." 

Hearing this, Hailey's eyes sparks. She smiled broadly, and her face lit up. She looks at Bryan, "Thanks, Bryan!" 

"What are you talking about? I should be the one to thank you for throwing a birthday party for me." 

"And I permitted you to drink." Andre chimed in before he left the dining hall. 

Bryan chuckled while Hailey giggled. He messed up her hair once again. 

"Hey!" Hailey pushes Bryan's hand.

But he continued messing up her hair. Hailey got annoyed; she held both of his wrists then pinned his arms behind his back. 

Bryan's jaw dropped on the floor, but his eyes spark from what she did. 

"You are my prisoner now!" Hailey declared cheerily. She had no idea the effect it would cause Bryan. 

The poor guy is in a daze. But Bryan did his best to knock himself back into his senses and calm himself down. 

'She's just a naive spoiled princess.' Bryan muttered it like a prayer repeatedly. 

Hailey would always give him surprises for his birthday, the reason he took a flight home. 

He wants to surprise this girl. But he didn't know; he was still the one to be surprised. Once again, this girl made his birthday perfect. 

To distract himself, he keeps chatting with Hailey while his hand is tied to the dining chair.

"By the way, how did you know I'm home for my birthday?" 

Hailey only smiled sweetly at him. She giggled and said, "It's a secret!" 

He frowned, "Hey! I want to know!" 

"What happened?" asked Andre. He was shocked to see Bryan tied on his chair. 

Hailey and Bryan looked at each other and then burst out laughing. Andre was confused, but he knew how closed these two. 

He raised his hands and waved the two bottles of red wine with only five percent alcohol in his hand. 

"Is that for me!?" Hailey exclaimed, forgetting to untie Bryan's hands. 

"I'll make you a cocktail drink," Andre said. Later, Geoffrey joins them carrying a pitcher with fresh oranges that he squeezes in the kitchen. 

The rest of the boys move to the other side of the long table and join them. They help to mix Hailey's soft drinks, mixing more fruit fresh juices. 

When it's done, she's very excited to try it out. Although it is tasted a lot more fruit juices, she was fascinated with the mixed color on her glass. 

"Umm... I love it!" She exclaimed happily. Finally, she was allowed to drink! 

Everyone is fascinated to make their cocktail drinks, but they use the liquor with higher alcohol until they didn't notice that Hailey got drunk. 

Trailing down the hallway, Andre is walking ahead, while Bryan is following behind with Hailey in his arms. 

"She had a low tolerance of alcohol. Don't forget to watch her when she goes out with her classmates. Might they sneak in and go to drinking parties," Bryan warned Andre. 

Being told like this, Andre frowned. He is the uncle here and knew better than this bastard who is claiming as the best brother in the world. 

Andre scratches the back of his head and glances at Geoffrey, who followed them behind. "Heard that, Geoffrey? I'll start my training soon. You'll take in charge to watch Hailey." 

Geoffrey made a salute with a massive grin in his mouth. Andre ignored him as they were now in front of Hailey's bedroom. He opened the door, and Bryan made a careful step and placed Hailey on the bed. 

"We need to call the maids to change her into pajamas," said Bryan. 

Geoffrey walked toward the telephone and phoned the servant's quarter, requesting two of Hailey's attendants. 

Meanwhile, Andre went to the bathroom and got a damped face towel. He gives it to Bryan, and the guy carefully patted the cloth on Hailey's face. 

"I'm going back to the US tomorrow night. Make sure that you guys are watching her." 

Andre and Geoffrey shared a glance. Andre furrowed his brows while Geoffrey knitted between his eyebrows; both are stressing out inwardly. 

'Who is he? The father who is going on a business trip and telling everyone to watch his daughter?!' 

Both Andre and Geoffrey rolled their eyes and got out of the room when the two attendants were coming in. Well, they knew he is the most overprotective one. 

"Bryan, don't go!" Hailey held his hand when he got up from the bed. 

He sat back and told Hailey, "Your attendants are here. They will change your clothes." 

"But you will come back?" 

"You need to sleep after you change into a pajama." 

"Don't go yet!" 

Bryan peered at her pleading eyes. Using his thumb, he rubbed her cheek and smiled, nodding at Hailey. "Okay. I will be outside. I'll come back after you change clothes." 

After he made a promise, Hailey just let go of his hand. 

"Okay. Don't you dare to leave?" She mumbled with droopy eyes. 

Bryan nodded and smiled before he gets out of her bedroom.
