Chapter 340 - 338: Ill Motives
When Nathan heard Eunji's intention, the former felt worried.
"Game? What kind of game Wifey? I can play with you. Why do you have to look for him?" Nathan sounded as if he was jealous.
Eunji was in disbelief when she heard that.
"Hubby! I didn't mean to play with a simple game with him that's why I agreed to this meeting." Eunji knew that Nathan really didn't mean to be jealous.
"Then, I have to be there."
Eunji knew that this would happen so she came prepared.
Asking Nathan to come as her assistant was not a coincidence.
It was pre-planned.
"Alright. You may come. However you have to pay your role well." That was her condition.
"Fine." Nathan understood what Eunji wanted. He got her point really well.
Eunji then looked Angelina who was still standing across them.
"We still have an hour left. Ask our team to bring snacks for them to eat while they're waiting. Other than that, don't entertain their request." She told Angelina.
It was not them whose in a disadvantage in this meeting anyways.
"Alright Devie. They're already serving them drinks and snacks as we speak."
"Good. Then let them wait for another hour."
Angelina then excused herself as she had other things to do.
"Why do you have to meet him? That guy's dangerous you, know."
"Haha! You're kidding right? If he's dangerous, then what about me? What about you?"
Eunji then fixed the tie on Nathan's neck and she continued.
"Don't worry. I won't do anything stupid. I only wanted to get to know him."
"If you want to know him, you may ask me. He's my rival. Therefore, I know a lot of things about him." Nathan said.
"I see. Thank you for the kind offer Hubby. But still it's not enough. I need to assess him myself."
Hearing that, Nathan had no other choice but to agree with her.
"So, are you going to use your table now?"
"Nope, why?" Eunji asked.
"Can I borrow it for a while? I'm going to check some emails in my laptop.
"Oh! Go ahead. Use it then." Eunji said.
Nathan walked to her table and sat on her chair.
"So this is what it feels like to sit on your chair." Nathan said with a grin.
"Oh? I'm really honored to hear that coming from someone who has his own empire. Compared to yours, I still think that my ELEK Group was still lagging behind."
"Ha! Are you kidding me? Don't humble yourself too much Wifey. It's okay to brag from time to time. You and your team have achieved it together. As the main mastermind behind all of these acheivements, you deserved it." Nathan encouraged.
"You're right." Eunji said while watching Nathan sitting up his laptop on her table.
"However, I think it's better to remain humble than to flaunt and brag about every achievements that we managed to achieve. It's better to let those achievements to speak for us rather than hearing it from us first hand."
"That's my wife!" Nathan praised her for being grounded and humble despite everything.
Then she got up and walked towards Nathan and she decided to sit on his lap.
Nathan didn't mind and welcome her company.
"And besides, that's what you're doing right? I have never heard you brag about your companies. So you're a good example."
"Hahaha. You're wrong. I brag about it when it's needed sometimes. But when it's not, I stayed quiet. I do hear praises from people for those achievements however, who knows how many are genuinely praising me over those who aren't."
Eunji nodded her head in agreement and said, "That's true. That's why I decided to focus myself on work rather than minding them."
Eunji had decided to stay still and let Nathan to do his work.
Eunji decided to have a nap in Nathan's lap while she was waiting for the meeting time.
Well, she might looked like she was sleeping but in reality, she wasn't really.
Half of her consciousness was actually awake.
While she was napping, the other party was starting to get impatient.
They were really expecting that since they came on time, Eunji or her assistant would welcome them.
But there was none. Only the receptionist welcomed them.
And only a low-ranked office staff brought them to this waiting room.
They were being served with drinks and cookies. However, they really expected something more.
Well, Eunji had instructed them through Angelina to come exactly on the agreed time.
It didn't mean that since they were there early, they could start the meeting early.
Frederick Heart had no other choice but to wait.
It was very rare to get an appointment with the aloof chairman of ELEK Group.
And besides, he had a lot of time to spare. So while waiting, he was sent into a deep thought.
He was really curious about the personality and the identity of the masked chairman.
Frederick thought that if he could impress her on this meeting, he would get the shot to her. He planned to make the Chairman (Eunji) as his wife.
Yes, he would be marrying Anastasia this month.
For Frederick, yes he was attracted to her beauty. In fact, had they met in a different circumstances, he would want her to be his wife and the mother of his children.
However, when he learned that she was only a clone, his attraction to her immediately vanished.
Should their plan become successful, he would be the husband of the heir of the Underworld King. He would have more advantage than Nathan over the position of who would be the next King of the Underworld.
But before that, they had to kill all those legitimate heirs first to make sure that their plan would become successful.
And once he achieved that position, it would be much easier for him to rule everyone.
He could not help but mock Nathan for not maximizing the card he had against him.
He thought that he had married the legitimate granddaughter with this purpose. Yet he could not keep her with him.
'Nathan! Nathan! You're such an idiot for wasting your opportunity. Now, it's my turn.' He thought.
They thought that Eunji and Nathan were still not back together especially when there was no sightings of them together.
And for Ana, since she would become their puppet, after she killed Eunji and her entire family and successfully took over the throne, he would then divorce her and then marry the Chairman of the ELEK Group after.
'Should I keep that woman? She could be my mistress and a good s*x slave.' He thought. He could now imagine his wonderful nights together.
Too bad, he could not touch her yet because she was still in therapy.
The drug they had injected to her worked and now they're teaching them the basics like reading and writing.
Good thing her skills remained and didn't disappear.
So, while they were very busy brain washing her, here he was, working on his other agenda.
He was still wondering why they had to go after the clone when they could just go for the original.
But since he was only working for the boss, then he had no other choice but to agree to it.
Funny when he was even clueless of the gender of his boss.
But he vowed to unveil his true identity and break off the contract that they had. Should the person come on his way, he planned to eliminate the former.
Frederick was that kind of person. His heart was definitely not red. It's black because he was a very horrible man.
And though Eunji had no idea what was running in his mind at the moment, she wanted to know how deep and how black his personality was.
She wanted to know what type of trash he was so she won't feel any guilt after killing him.
And besides, she wanted to be acquainted to him. She wanted to know if he was the person behind that hacker who hurt Alora and most importantly, the one who held Ana captive.
Eunji got up from her nap ten minutes before the agreed meeting time.
She rubbed the imaginary crease in her outfit and made some quick touches on her appearance.
She even changed her lipstick into red which made Nathan to frown.
"Is it part of the game, too?" Nathan asked her.
"You could say that. And besides, it's not the first time that I wear this color when meeting a client. So, you don't have to be grumpy."
Eunji then placed the lipstick in her bag and added, "And besides, you're not my husband now. I'm not your wife now either. You're my assistant and I'm your boss."
Hearing her commanding tone, Nathan could not stop herself from getting turned on.
He wanted to hear more of that in bed.
"Is our role playing now, a part of the game, too?" He teased.
"Hmm, yup! It's up to you if you want to be a spectator or be one of the main characters." She teased him back.
"I got it Chairman."
Eunji then give Nathan a sweet kiss smudging her lipstick a little bit.
Nathan wanted to ask for more but Eunji didn't give that to him.
"Let's save that for later, my lover boy." Eunji teased.
'Ha! Have fun as much as you want Wifey. Because tonight, you're mine. I'll make sure you'll only call my name and would lose your mind because of pleasure.' Nathan thought.
"I know what is inside your head now. And no, that won't happen tonight. So control your hormones, okay?" Eunji had already taken away his victory for tonight.
"I don't think it's right for a Chairman to talk about those things in the office. What do you think?"
"Good! You're ready. Let's go."
Nathan and Eunji then walked out of her office and rode the elevator going to the floor where they would be having the meeting.
Angelina had gone down ahead of them to assess the people that was accompanying Frederick.
Eunji gave her self a pat on the shoulder when she had managed to walk without limping.
The ointment she had placed this morning had taken effect finally.
The couple saw Angelina walked out of the meeting room in a bad mood. They had concluded that based on her body language
Frederick had done something that upset her so bad and Eunji wondered what it was.
"He's a d*ck! You should be careful." Angelina whispered to her. It was obvious that Angelina didn't want to be in the same room with Frederick ever again.
"Don't worry, I won't be alone. What did he do to earn such hatred from you?" She had to ask.
"He touched my ***"
