Chapter 338 - 336: First Breakfast Together In South Korea
Nathan thought that his wife would stay in bed and sleep because of exhaustion but he was wrong.
Eunji got up and she moved herself over the edge of the bed. Then she attempted to stand up. But when she did, she immediately felt a sharp pain radiating through her core making her to hiss.
However, that didn't stop her from what she wanted to do.
She then threw a sharp gaze at Nathan because he was the culprit of why this was happening to her.
Nathan then got up and offered his help, however, he swatted his hands away.
Nathan was trying to hold back a laugh out of his mouth as he watched Eunji limping while she walked to the bathroom.
Being left alone, Nathan decided to pick up their clothes which were scattered on the floor and put them on the laundry basket..
He also took the bathrobe and wrapped it around his body. He had decided to take a shower after she was done. Though he was on this one week leave, he would not sit idle and do nothing when things were still not okay back home.
He had other important things to do, too in the office and he didn't want Marco to think that he was such a heartless boss.
He would be coming back to Beijing this Thursday.
Nathan had decided to not follow Eunji inside.
He wanted to give Eunji the space to take her sweet time showering.
He chuckled when he heard her cursing inside. Still, he felt bad for his wife. He just missed her so much that he could not hold back himself.
He would surely take advantage on every opportunity that he could make love to her.
He didn't care if people would tease him like he was a hormonal teenager. Because that was what he exactly felt.
However, he knew he better control himself or else his wife would not sleep with him for days.
After thirty minutes or so, Eunji went out with a white bathrobe wrapped around her body.
She was still limping because she was very sore down there.
Eunji had decided to ignore Nathan because of what he did.
However, looking at his happy face, all the anger inside her disappeared.
She didn't even reject when Nathan asked for a hug.
Eunji hugged him like a koala.
"I'm sorry." Nathan uttered as he knew she was in discomfort because of him.
"It's okay." She said even if it really was not.
"Why did you shower so early? You should still be resting you know. Do you have plans for the day?" He asked her softly.
"I have a meeting with a client today." She said.
"Is it whole day?" He asked.
"No. Just this morning."
Hearing that his wife would be leaving this morning to meet a client with her condition, Nathan could not help not to be worried with her. So, he asked, "Where? Can I come with you?"
"In the main building. So you don't have to worry." Eunji wanted to reassure him that she can manage. However, this only made Nathan even more worried.
"That's in Seoul. The more I have to go with you." Nathan stubbornly insisted.
Eunji looked at Nathan in disbelief.
"Please?" He pleaded.
He really wanted to go. He wanted to watch how her Eunji turn to be a badass CEO.
"Fine. But in one condition." She proposed.
"I agree with every condition as long as it's favorable to me, too." He said with his businessman attitude.
"Don't worry. There won't be any losses. Just benefits." She smiled at him and then turned his body to face the bathroom door.
"So you better go or we will be late." She urged him to take a shower.
"Now we have a deal!" Nathan said with a grin.
Eunji could only chuckle because of how silly their conversation had become.
"The meeting will start at eleven in the morning. And we have to go there by plane this time to make it quicker."
"Will you be fine though?" Nathan could not help but worry given Eunji's plane ride tendency.
"I'll be fine. It's only a short distance. And besides I would have a maximum of an hour and a half to rest." She said.
"Okay." And Nathan disappeared inside the bathroom.
Since Eunji had been coming back and forth between Busan and Seoul, she had her clothes inside.
Eunji took her tailor fit terno black skirt and the coat and paired it with her white long-sleeved shirt.
She also took her silk black and white Channel scarf that she would be using to wrap around her neck just in case putting concealer won'f do.
Nathan's kiss and bite marks on her neck were so fresh and red that it would be hard to hide by using a mere concealer on them.
She also looked on Nathan's luggage if he had any office attire packed so she could iron them.
Thankfully, Nathan had one.
However, Nathan won't be accompanying her as the great Nathaniel Bai. He would be coming with her as her temporary assistant.
So Eunji looked on her closet if she had male blazer on it. Unfortunately, there's none. But she had one in her closet inside her apartment.
She had bought it one time when she was shopping for clothes in the mall when she came across that outfit.
She intended to buy it for Nathan to use as casual wear. She didn't expect it would come handy this time.
After ironing the crease on Nathan's white shirt and pants, Eunji started doing her morning skincare routine.
Nathan went out of the shower and saw her busy applying all those creams on her face at the same time putting some creams and concealers in all of those kiss marks on her neck.
"Your coat will come later when we reach the office." She said while watching Nathan looking at his attire for the day.
"Okay?" Nathan was unsure of what Eunji meant by that. However, he trusted her style.
After she was done, she beckoned Nathan to come over as she'll help him to ready his skin for the skin mask later.
Compared to others, Nathan was not that strict with his skin care as he was already gifted with healthy skin. And compared to women, he didn't wear any make up at all.
Still, he would apply some night cream during the night to help in maintaining his facial skin. Not much in the morning though.
"Done." She said which was a sign that it's okay to change into their clothes now.
Eunji helped Nathan to wear his skin mask before she did herself.
After seeing that they're all ready, Eunji grabbed her bag where her laptop was and Nathan did the same.
She then shoved her phone, wallet and other things inside her second bag.
Of course, she didn't forget to keep some weapons on her body just in case.
Eunji then went out of their room with Nathan following behind her. He was holding on her hips to support her from walking.
When they went out, the kids were already on the table having breakfast.
Angelina had just walked out from her room in her office suit, too. She was being followed by Karina who was still yawning because she had just gotten up from bed.
Lee Yunha and Baek Dae-jung where having their breakfast at the breakfast counter.
"Good morning Eomma! Appa!" It was Sophie who greeted first and the three other kids followed.
"Good morning my babies!" Eunji gave each a hug and a kiss on the cheek.
Nathan didn't forget to do the same.
"Good morning my daughter! My favorite son-in-law!" Layla enthusiastically greeted them.
"Good morning, Eomma." Eunji and Nathan greeted while giving her a hug.
Layla also greeted Angelina and Karina with a good morning hug.
She didn't ask where they were going as she was kind of familiar with Eunji and Angelina's job nature.
"Coming back to the office too soon?" She asked the girls."
"Yes, Eomma. I have a client meeting to attend to."
"And I have to resume being Devie's assistant, Eom-ma." Angelina was still not used in calling Layla as mother.
But she knew in time, she'd get used to it.
"Are you okay?" Layla asked Eunji after she saw Nathan assisting Eunji with her movements.
"Yes, Eomma. I'm fine." Eunji tried to force a smile.
"Okay. Come and have breakfast first before you'll leave." Layla invited the couple to have a sit and they did.
Mei, Grandma Sana, Celine and Sam also came out from their respective rooms to have their breakfast.
However, they were surprised to see them all dressed up in their office attire.
"Good morning everyone! Are you all going to the office today?" Celine could not help but ask them.
"Good morning Mom, Grandma, Yukineechan, Sam." Eunji greeted them in one go as the three approached Nathan and her for a morning hug.
"Good morning, too. Well, vacation time is over for me. Now I have to resume to my other responsibility which is being Eu-Devie's EA/PA." Angelina almost slipped.
"How about you Eunji-chan?" Celine then asked Eunji this time."
"I have a client meeting at eleven. But will be done by one or two. Then office work afterwards. Hubby had asked to come over with me. That's why he was all dressed up." She said.
"Oh, really? That was sad. I thought we could bond some more." Celine was a little upset upon hearing that.
She really wanted to bond with both girls and explore the place before she would go back with Nathan in Beijing to resume filming.
"Can I go with you?" Celine curiously asked Eunji.
"Um." Eunji was about to say yes but her kids also chimed in the conversation.
"Can I go, too Mommy?" Li Wei asked his mother with a sad face.
Eunji then looked at her second son and she found out hard to reject him.
"Son. Your mother will be going for work. You'll only disturb her." Nathan scolded his son making the latter to purse his lips to form a very familiar pout.
"Do you want to come with Mommy at work?" Eunji asked.
"Yes." Bai Li Wei strongly nodded his head.
Eunji sighed as she had no choice but to agree to not make her son be upset.
"Okay. But Mommy and Daddy will go ahead first okay? You and Auntie Mom will follow."
"Okay!" Li Wei exclaimed in joy.
"I'll stay Eomma. I want to watch Karina Unnie's practice today." Sophie was very eager to watch Karina's practice everyday.
"Me too Mommy." Bai Li Jun also said.
And since Little Eve was still young, she had to stay behind, too.
Mei, Grandma Sana and Layla had decided to stay, too since three-fourth of the kids would stay.
Eunji then turned her attention to both her body guards who had just finished their breakfast.
"Yunha, Dae-jung, one of you will stay after here while one would go with me."
"Chairman! I'll stay." Lee Yunha volunteered.
"Good. Don't worry, I'll ask Eagle to be with you in guarding them." She said.
After making the arrangement, everyone then enjoyed their breakfast.
After having their breakfast, Eunji and Angelina wore their gold and silver mask respectively. While Nathan, he was on the skin mask. He was still very handsome with the skin mask that he was wearing.
Then, the trio went to the waiting limo with Baek Dae-jung and Lee Yunha leading.
Angelina, Eunji and Nathan was driven to the airport where her private jet was on standby.
It was already nine in the morning when they landed at the airport.
Another thirty-minute drive and they had reached the ELEK Group building.
"So this is the empire that you have built while you're away." He said with a proud smile.
"Yes. This has been my fortress for the past two years." She said.
"Here...everyone addresses me as Chairman." She added.
"I got it. I'll keep that in mind."
Nathan understood why Eunji was doing this. And he decided to not complain.
He was a hundred percent sure that when things turned to be okay, they may reveal their identities as a married couple.
Baek Dae-jung, Angelina and her KSA team went out of the respective cars first.
The last to go out was Eunji.
Nathan stood protectively behind Eunji knowing that she was having difficulty in walking.
"Stay beside me, Hubby." She whispered.
And so, Nathan did. He stood on her right.
To make things better, Angelina also stood on her left.
"Let's go." She said and her guards moved and the three were walking in the middle.
