His Contractual Mistress

Chapter 141 - The Lopez Cousins



Palm Island, P Country 

Fraine is sighing with satisfaction. The young coconut juice she drank was fresh and sweet! The green coconut had just picked out from its tree nearby, and the moment it was open, she quickly drank its water. 

She took this opportunity to enjoy a one-day vacation before returning to Metro City with her new boss named Hailee Hillson or Mistress Hailey Hillson.

But the girl she is with now is a self-made Billionaire Business Woman, an heiress who has a net worth of several trillion dollars. The numbers made her daze, but that is reality.

How lucky she is, a peasant, to be blessed with this kind of luxury because her boss is too generous, and so, she will indulge herself in having fun once in a while!

At the moment, they were at the shore, having a sunbath and enjoying the magnificent view and crystal water.

Fraine watched Hailey get out from the seawater, and now she was having a sunbath to look tan. But her main purpose is to make Vincent Shen believe that she spends on the beach in these passing days.

The woman only wore a tiny two-piece white bikini that proudly shows her wide hips and tiny waist.

She is a woman, but she does admire Hailey's perfect body. It's no doubt why Vincent Shen goes crazy about her. She has a body to die for.

And as for her, who's only ordinary, and even a sick person, and cared less to maintain such a figure and looks, she sometimes couldn't help feeling envy for women like Hailey.

Even though the girl complimented that she's pretty, still, she could not have the guts to wear a two-piece! She's wearing a one-piece which she still put on pants.

Still, in a trance, Fraine answered her phone when it rang. Suddenly she came back to her senses after recognizing the voice from the other line.

"Finally, and you pick up your phone!"

'Shot!' Fraine curse inwardly. She had no plan to answer this guy's call nor reply to his text messages. But because she was bewitched staring at Hailey, she anxiously swipes the green button!

"Why aren't you talking! Have you lost your tongue?"

"You!" It always made her irritated talking to this guy!

"Where are you? I have been searching for you the entire Dubai!"

"Oh. Do you have a business meeting there?"

"Fraine Michaels!"

Fraine pulls the phone away from her ear when the guy on the other line keeps yelling.

"Yeah. I heard you. You need not yell." She muttered in a lazy voice while rolling out her eyes. "If you just called to yell at me, then I better hang up."

"Then answer me or reply to my messages!"

"Fine."

"Where are you?"

"I'm no longer in Dubai."

"What the..."

Fraine heard the guy cursing on the other line. She felt like her ears burnt while listening to his cusses.

"What's wrong with you! I have been like an idiot checking every hotel and possible places you might be!" Rodney stressed out. He admired how this girl could aggravate him every time.

"And what possible places is that? Besides, who told you to follow me there?" Fraine sounded teasing. But after Rodney replied, guilt crept toward her chest.

"And where are those places? Either you are in the hospital or kidnapped by someone? Who knows!?"

Kidnap by someone? She's not rich to kidnap. Who's going to have the interest to kidnap her?

"I'll be home in P Country tomorrow. You need not look for me." She replied after a moment of thought.

Fraine hangs up the call. Rodney called her again, but she just ignored him. She breathes a sigh of relief when the guy stops calling her. That guy is persistent. He's getting on her nerves.

However, she could not deny that even the guy always upsets her, he could also move her countless times.

But still, she hated him!

Fraine let out a breath. Now that no more a bother, she fixes her position and comfortably lies down on the outdoor beach chaise. It has been only fifteen minutes since she closed her eyes when her phone didn't stop ringing again.

By the second time, she decided to check if Rodney had called her again. Fraine is a little bit panicked to see the name flashing on her phone screen. She debated within herself if she's going to answer it.

The chimed ended, her phone rang again. This time, she decided to answer the call. If the tone she used toward Rodney is indifferent, her voice is colder this time.

"What do you want?" She didn't act polite at all. She asks the guy on the other line without greeting him.

Fraine heard him hurl a long breath and release them furiously. When the guy speaks again, she notices how he only controls his anger.

"Where are you?"

Fraine twitched her mouth and mumbled to her head. 'He and Rodney are not mistakenly cousins!'

"You don't need to know. I'm going back tomorrow."

Still, her tone is cold. She waited for the guy to reply, but he remained silent for half a minute.

"You're on the beach?"

Damn! His ears are good! He could have guessed it because of the gentle waves hitting the shore. Now she could not deny anything nor make an excuse.

"Yeah, to breathe some fresh air."

"Okay. Just don't forget to keep yourself warm at night. You might catch cold breathing the night breeze."

It was Fraine who is speechless this time, and she remains silent in the next seconds. With the silence between them, she could hear a woman's sweet voice in the background.

"Zaijan, the French investor, and our Canadian business partners have arrived. Let's go. We have to greet them."

"Okay. You go ahead. I'll be there in the minute."

Fraine need not guess. She is sure that this woman in the background is cursing her inwardly.

"Fraine, I need to hang up. Don't forget to take your medicine on time."

She frowned, listening to the man at the end of the line. It irritates her that she was treated like five years old.

She survives living alone for many years, and she handles herself very well. She doesn't need someone to dictate her life.

However, she didn't share her thoughts but stubbornly murmured to her head. 'And who told you to call me?'

She didn't reply to the guy on the other line and let him speak till the end.

On the other side of the world, Zaijan heaves a long sigh. He massaged his forehead and pressed his left temple. He could feel the back of his head throbbing from a severe headache.

"Alright. I need to go." Zaijan said goodbye after a long moment of silence. He ends the call and puts back his phone in his coat pocket.

He frowned. He already dismissed the woman in front of him; her face exhibited how displeased she was.

And she couldn't take it anymore to be ignored like this.

"Sometimes, I wish I was the mistress here to be pampered and showered with your attention!"

Zaijan sat up from his chair and walked past the woman.

"We are not married yet, but you start acting like a nagging wife." He scoffed.

"Zaijan Lopez!"

Fraine put down the phone on her lap and stared at it.

Everything is almost perfect but then ruined by this series of calls from those cousins. They're only ruining her wonderful vacation!

Sometimes she could ask herself if those men are truly Vincent Shen's cousins.

Why does the Shen president look gentle, but his cousins are a bunch of idiots and playboys?

How if?

"Fraine, are you alright?"

Suddenly, she was pulled out from her deep thoughts when a hand patted her shoulder. Not only that, she was shaking gently. 

She looked up and saw Hailey's worried face.

"Oh. Hailey. Did you say something?"

"I asked if you are alright? Are you feeling okay?"

"Yes, I am! I feel fine. You need not worry. I'm just thinking about something not important."

"Hmm... Alright. It's time for lunch. Shall we?"

"Okay!"
