Chapter 271 - Her Best Girlfriends

Later in the afternoon, Gigi arrived in Dream City. She freaked out to see the bandages on her body.

"I should have been there!" Gigi fretted.

Hailee smiled at how worried Gigi was. She persuades her, "It\'s alright. We can\'t foresee what will happen, you know."

She pacifies Gigi, who later realizes that she must not cause things that would stress her.

She said, "Okay. I should not whine openly but fret inwardly. Pitt told Tom that it\'s not good for you to be depressed or stress yourself."

"I\'m fine. Don\'t worry about me, okay? Dad, Vincent, and everyone was already freaking out about my pregnancy. I\'ll be more stressed if everyone gives me a worried face," Hailee answered.

"Silly! Normally, they would freak out because they love you. I also freak out after I heard the news." Gigi said, holding her hand, carefully scanning her arm.

Hailee smiled and hugged Gigi one more time. "And I\'m happy about that. It\'s just that I already hate myself."

Gigi parted from her; shock registered on her face at what she said. "Why would you? You shouldn\'t think that way!"

Hailee pointed out, "I mean, I hate how my body is so fragile. I should have been stronger than this! I should not lose consciousness during my talk with Eva."

"You are pregnant. You can\'t take control over your body if your pregnancy differs from that of other women," Gigi explained to her.

She understood Hailee is new to what she is experiencing now. She must watch her body, and she must not overdo any heavy work. Most especially in her mental state, she must avoid stress or feel depressed.

"I haven\'t experienced it myself yet, so I can\'t have a lot of examples. But Tom\'s mom said of what struggles she has to get through to keep him inside her womb for nine months," she added.

Hailee smiled at Gigi. She\'s grateful that she was the one she\'d talk to. Gigi is much more mature and has more experience in life. "Okay. I understand what you were saying. Thank you."

Gigi embraced Hailee one more time. Afterward, they talk about random things like the gender of the baby, or if it was a twin, and what names she would give them.

"I think this is something I have to discuss with Vincent. I understand they have some beliefs, especially on Vincent\'s part. Also, I have to let his family get involved in naming our firstborn. He is from a long line of the royal family."

"So, are you!" Gigi reminded her. "Your forefathers are a European Royal as well."

"Ah, right…" she chuckled awkwardly. Why did she forget that?

She and Vincent are from the bloodline of aristocrats.

"I have nothing to worry about, then once we meet the Elders. Vincent is also from the royal family. He is a descendant of an emperor," she is more sound of consoling herself not to worry so much.

"Otherwise, it will be a bloody fight for Vincent," Gigi\'s meaningful remarks. "Well, I\'m happy that your dad gave his blessings."

"Yes. I was so happy. But I am a little guilty. I am worried they will make things hard for Vincent, so I used my condition to get dad and the men\'s approval. I felt bad. I felt like I tricked them."

"Vincent loves you. They should see that," she reassured Hailee.

"Vincent must prove to everyone yes." Hailee nodded. Gigi\'s words are comforting to her. She must not worry so much.

"So stop beating yourself up, okay? They have no choice but to let you be happy. For god\'s sake, you suffered enough already!" Gigi continued consoling her.

"And you too. I\'m happy for you, Gigi..." said Hailee, a warm smile placed on her lips.

Gigi cannot hide anymore how happy she was that Tom accepted her into the family.

"Tom\'s family is actually nice to me. I could tell that they were genuine for treating me well. I\'m actually nervous! What if they would not like me?"

"Silly. The Morris family is wonderful. They would like you. They won\'t judge you nor mistreat you." This time, she\'s the one comforting Gigi.

Gigi smiled, concurring with what Hailee had said to her. "I already love them."

"I\'m happy to know that." Tom\'s mom is her mother\'s best friend. Katherine is like a mother to her, too.

"Hail!" At the door, Kelly stepped inside and rushed to the bed. "You girl! I can\'t believe this! Where is my cousin? I will beat him up!"

Hailee and Gigi look at each other. They\'re happy to see her, but she started throwing a pit. Gigi has to hold Kelly on the shoulders to calm her down, guiding her to inhale and exhale.

"Hailee should not encounter any stressful situation." Gigi reminded Kelly, which the girl still didn\'t stop fitting.

"I\'m just furious! I want to slap that woman!"

"You need not waste your time," said Hailee with a smile on her lips. Honestly, she felt warm at what Kelly showed her of how concerned she was. "Come here."

Kelly cried. And so she was mumbling between their hugs. "I can\'t believe that you truly are going to show me your marriage license too soon."

Hailee chuckled at what she fussed about now. Before, she made mentions to Kelly that she will wave her marriage license at her soon. She said, "You\'ll be my bridesmaid and godmother."

"Oh, my gosh! I love that!" Kelly shrieked delightedly.

Outside the door, Vincent, Tom, and Pitt shared a look. The three of them were on the balcony of that ward, having coffee when they heard someone scream from Hailee\'s room. It was just Kelly fretting over her frustration.

"This woman, really!" Pitt fretted.

Vincent and Tom just shrugged their right shoulders.

SYDNEY, AUSTRALIA

Later in the evening….

Eva was seated in the corner of the room. She never touched the food given to her. But every time the door opened, she lifted her head, hoping it was Bryan.

She was locked up in her bedroom, and Bryan hadn\'t come home since yesterday. She was mulling over whether what happened to that girl was serious.

Eva is wondering what Bryan would do to her. Maybe she has to apologize. She didn\'t feel guilty about what had happened, but she didn\'t want to lose Bryan. She realized that she really loved him.

"Bryan!" she hurried to stand and rush to the door. But the last person she expected to see is the one who appears at the door.

Eva froze to her feet on the floor. She stammers, but she could not spill out any word. She remained horrid to see the person walking toward her.

Slapped!

When that landed on her face, she staggered her legs and fell to the floor.

"After the kindness, I showed to your family? You have the nerve to hurt my grandchild!? You\'ve caused enough headaches for my son! But for you to harm the Shen heir? I will make sure you\'ll live in hell!"
