  He was staring at the giant gate with gloominess. Now that it was tightly close, Bryan strode toward his car and sat at the passenger seat. He closes his eyes and massages the line between his brow.

  Still, his talk with Hailey didn't become fruitful. Instead, Hailey is pushing him away even further.

  Rather than going back to the yacht, Bryan drove his car headed to Dream City. When he arrives at his apartment, he throws his car keys and cellphone on the sofa and marches straight to his cold bedroom.

  He dropped his body on the bed and placed his arm on top of his eyes.

  Hailey still hated him. She didn't forgive him till now. And the only thing that she's trying to be nice to him is their professional relationship as a boss and employee.

  He can't question her anger. He causes this all, But he could not accept that Hailey is seeing someone!

  Hailey admitted that she had a boyfriend. And she even considers herself that she's belonged to him.

  Who is that guy? He wants to know who he is and if that man is serious about Hailey.

  How was he able to make Hailey like him? Is Hailey in love with him? How is Hailey only doing this to take revenge on him?

  Does this guy is serious about her? Does he even know how to make her happy?

  Ah! He's going crazy having all of these thoughts.

  Bryan drags his body off his bed to get a shower and cool off his head. However, all he could think about is Hailey.

  He wanted to take this opportunity to persuade her while she was in Australia, thought Bryan.

  Under the rushing water, he keeps pondering how he could win Hailey back. As he was racking his head, he was drifting to his beautiful memories.

  His back had just touched the bed, but he immediately fell asleep. Bryan guessed that it had been just one hour since he fell asleep, but now he was woken up by the loud chime of his phone.

  He dragged his body to get up and search for his phone. He forgot that it was inside his jacket he threw on the floor the moment he stepped inside his bedroom.

  Bryan swipes the button and rubs his eyes to see the person on the other line.

  "Happy Birthday, Bryan! Hey, I woke you up so that I'll be the first person to greet you!"

  Watching his phone's screen, Bryan couldn't help a chuckle. He just arrived from the US, and he plans to take a nap before he drives to the Davies mansion the moment the sun rises in the east.

  He plans to surprise this girl even if he has a birthday today. And at the moment, it was now past midnight, and this girl woke him up to greet him.

  "Bryan! I made you a cake and an apple pie! Guess what! Grandma finally allowed me to make an apple pie without her help!"

  "Wait, are you still cooking until now?" He noticed the boys in the background.

  Hailey replied to him, "Yes, I am! Look, I was still in the kitchen!"

  Hailey moved around; he frowned upon what he saw. He complains, "You bake for me but someone who has the first taste."

  "Eh! But I need a few hands! Hehe……" Hailey snicker and then put out a tongue on him. "Why don't you come over and have a try with the apple pie? It will be done soon!"

  Then, Hailey showed Bryan the apple pie slowly baking inside the oven.

  "Alright! I'll be there in half-hour!" He declared.

  The video call ended; Bryan rushed to the bathroom and took a quick shower. He was running the stairs when his mom, Tina Anderson, heard the noises.

  "Bryan, where are you going?"

  "I'm going over to the mansion, ma. Hailey made a cake for me, ma!"

  Tina's eyes twinkled. She widened her smile and uttered, "Alright. Be careful driving."

  "Yes, mom!" Bryan replied, the door now swallowed him.

  Tina shook her head and went downstairs to lock the door. She's already used to Bryan leaving the house any time, any day, to go to the Davies mansion.

  Not long, he was now driving the quiet road toward the countryside to one of Davies's mansion.

  Davies has two mansions, and the third one is currently constructed in Perth City. Not only that, Davies had several villas around Australia. And the one he headed to is the main mansion located in the countryside of Sydney.

  After half an hour, Bryan now drove his car inside the mansion. The guards quickly open the gate upon recognizing his vehicle.

  But he wondered why the front mansion and the patio were dark. Or maybe because everyone was in the kitchen, Bryan mused.

  He shrugged the thought as she climbed the stairs. He pushes the door open, then blinding lights meet his eyes.

  "Happy Birthday, Bryan!"

  He was surprised by the loud explosion. He was welcome by party decors, and almost all of his close friends are present. Bryan sweeps his eyes to the mansion. The entryway was decorated with black, red, and gold balloons.

  And the person rushing toward him is a 17 years old young lady he hadn't seen for several months.

  "Happy birthday, Bryan!" Hailey threw her arms around Bryan's neck and planted a kiss on his cheek.

  He immediately placed his hands on her back to catch her body.

  Bryan sighed inwardly, shook his head, and shrugs the wild thoughts in his head. 'This girl wasn't thinking! She is a young lady now as her body had developed perfectly. But she is still acting like a little girl. She is turning 18 soon!'

  He stressed out, heaving a sigh inwardly one more time before he pursed his lips into a broad smile.

  "Hey, young lady! Thank you! What a surprise! Is this your idea, right?" He asked, which he already knew the answer to his question.

  "Yup! But of course, I need the boys to help!" She answered with a massive grin across her face.
