Chapter 149 - Controversy (One)

She's staring horribly at the scene in front of her. Hailey's eyes widened as she was frozen in her seat.

She watched how the red car flew across the road after crashing into a passing truck.

Both vehicles run with such speed, and the crossing road is dangerous if you drive at such velocity.

Hailey covered her mouth when the red car landed on the other side of the street, where it was severely damaged. It worries her whether the car driver survived that impact.

Looking at the car in front of her, she could imagine Vince's accident. Luckily, Vince didn't have injuries.

Still dazed, Hailey heard knocks on the driver seat's window.

"Princess! Princess!"

She turned her head and rolled down the window; she looked at Bruce with a shock on her face. "Bruce..."

"Leave now, Princess." He suggested. It is best that the media didn't see her in the scene.

Fell into thoughts, she came back to her senses upon hearing Bruce's suggestions. "No, Bruce! We must help that car!"

"I know, Princess. But please leave now. Let me handle the situation here. Your safety is more important to me!" It's my job to keep you away from harm!

She disagrees, but maybe Bruce is right. In the end, Hailey agreed.

"I will tell Director Lopez to leave as well and escort you home. Please, be careful."

She nodded. As of this time, she felt the warm love she always received from her knights, her brothers.

Hailey watched Bruce talking to Rodney, who is also shocked by what he witnessed.

"Director Lopez!" Bruce starts knocking on the window until the guy comes back to his senses.

Rodney isn't afraid to witness a scene like that, but as of this moment, fear crept into his chest as he mused.

How if he didn't pay attention, and he misses Hailey's warning? It can be possible that his car becomes like the one in front of them that was severely wrecked! He wonders if the car driver is still breathing.

"Director Lopez!"

Rodney turned his head. He creases his forehead as confusion written all over his face of why this man is knocking on his window.

"Who are you?" He rolled down the window and asked the guy suspiciously.

"I am Miss Hailey's secret bodyguard," Bruce answered the truth. It's no longer necessary to hide his identity. "I was assigned by President Vincent Shen."

"Really?" Surprised displayed on his face. It astounded him to see that Vincent is assigning Hailey a secret bodyguard again.

"Please, escort Miss Hailey back to the penthouse," said Bruce, and he saw Rodney Lopez nodded, he added. "Let me handle the situation here, Director Lopez. Most importantly, Miss Hailey is safely home."

Rodney nodded again and thanked the guy. He rolled down the window on the passenger seat to look at Hailey. Their eyes meet and converse silently. They nodded at each other then Hailey resumed driving, leaving the scene with him.

"Hey! Where are they going?" The guy from the green car tried to block the two vehicles. "Hey! Bul...hit! You!" he turned to Bruce.

The guy rushes to Bruce, who is currently talking with someone on the phone.

"Hey! Why did you let them go!" he shouted.

"Please, sir, calm down. I am calling a medical rescue, and the ambulance is on its way," said Bruce.

The guy took a moment of silence as he pondered with something, but then he's throwing a fret once again.

"Shot! Why did you let them go!"

"Sir, the police are on their way." Bruce calmly told the guy even though he wished to punch him.

"Fine! I will make sure that those two drivers will pay!"

Bruce didn't reply. He just simply stared at the guy. Who's at fault? If they didn't challenge the princess, there would be no street race tonight, and most of all, there should be no car accident.

Gladly, his dashboard camera recorded everything. That will be a piece of solid evidence if this stupid guy insists that the princess caused the accident.

Not long, Police Patrol cars arrived on the scene and quickly investigated the accident. Soon, the ambulance arrived and helped the driver to get out of the broken car.

The police officers questioned Bruce, his very own friend, and one of them reviewed the video recorded by his dashboard camera.

He moves away to take a distance to make a phone call to an important person and let them know the situation.

"Hello, sir Keith? It's me, Bruce. We need to protect the princess."

"What? How is she?"

"She probably arrived in the penthouse by now. I'm worried about the media once they found out," said Bruce.

"Yes. They want to put her in the hot seat. They were keeping an eye on her lately. Bruce, call Sandy and tell him to make sure that no news will leak outside P Country. Sandy must prevent all the news."

"Copy, sir."

In these passing months, the Princess protected herself with Sandy's help. She makes sure that any news about her and Vince would not leave P Country but is instantly blocked by Sandy.

And if the link were shared with someone living in another country, this person can't open the article, especially all Hailey's pictures.

That's how Eva didn't discover about her being Vince's not-secret-affair.

In the past, Zenaida used to share Hailey's photos with Eva, but Eva always complains because the photo or video would only say, "not available in your country."

But Hailey's real reason is not for her dad and the boys to find out where she is and what she's been up to.

"Keith, what happens?" Daisy asked her husband. She heard him named Bruce. It was just recently they met him as Hailey's new knight. "Is this something about Hailey?"

This morning, Daisy was digging a pit because of how Hailey was slander by the media. If Keith didn't calm her down, she probably gives birth when it's not her due yet because of her anger.

"Keith, I want to release a statement regarding Hailey's vacation. Can I use our resort's official page to post the article I prepared?"

"Sure, my love. But I need to talk to Sandy to ensure that this post would not leak outside P Country. We know how fast the people share a link and gossip."

"I understand. It's just that I can't sleep tonight thinking of the false news thrown at Hailey."

"Thank you for being a good friend to her. She's like a sister to me." Sincerely, Keith told his wife. He has no sister, so he was drawn closer to her.

Daisy smiled at her husband. She whispered, "I'm happy that she is my friend. I will help her by any means. Oh, I better call dad! I'll ask him to check out what is happening."

"It's a good idea, Love."

Daisy didn't delay; she phones her dad to inform him about Hailey's situation. Although she knew that Vincent would not abandon his girlfriend once he heard about the news, they wanted to protect Hailey with all their power and influence as well.

That night, Congressman Vasquez quickly sent his men to check what happened after the dinner meeting.

He runs his own investigation about the accident.

Meanwhile, Hailey is pacing back and forth in the living room. She was nervous because she disappoints Vince this time.

It was her childish behavior that, until now, she could not control her behavior sometimes as being a spoiled brat.

Now she let Vince show her side of being a pain in the head and ass.

But she didn't wish for anything to happen tonight.

Ugh! It was her who was infuriated when the media are creating hype. But now, she dragged her ass to controversies.

Although it's not her fault, she felt a sense of obligation to ensure that the car driver will remain alive.

Hailey was in deep thoughts when her phone rang. It was Vince!
