Chapter 177 - 177: My Pregnant Wife's Bored
Everyone was delighted seeing their Mistress or Lady Boss walking side by side with Nathan with hands held dearly in the corridor.
Does that mean that she's okay?
Yes, the people living in the mansion had a depressed mood as well because of what happened to Eunji.
Even with the pregnancy news, the atmosphere in the mansion still had become gloomy as they felt like it was not right that they would be in high spirits while their Master and Mistress were both facing the tough situation that they were in.
Eunji showed them her faint smile as she was glad to have these kind of people around her.
Among those people who were so grateful seeing Eunji again was Aunt Lucy.
"Mistress! Are you--" she paused as she hesitated if she should ask her or not. However, Kim Eunji's faint smile earlier had given her the boost to do so.
"--okay now?" She had managed to continue.
"Yeah...I'm sorry if my condition over this past week had made you all worried. I didn't mean for it to happen at all." Kim Eunji sincerely expressed.
"Oh no! Mistress, please don't apologize to us. We're not suitable to even receive your sorry. For us, you didn't do anything wrong at all. I'm sorry if it made you feel that way." Aunt Lucy told Eunji.
Kim Eunji felt emotional as she heard Aunt Lucy's sentiments.
"Alright Mistress, I won't hold you any longer. Enjoy your rest outside."
Nathan brought a thick jacket and let Eunji to wear it.
Though the sun was visible and shining up above, the weather was relatively cooler as winter's coming.
"Thanks." She thanked Nathan after the latter was done helping her.
"You're welcome wifey."
The couple spend the rest of their morning in the gazebo.
They were cuddling but most of the time snuggling as they enjoyed each other's company.
Everything was so peaceful and Eunji loved it.
"Are you okay?" Nathan asked her as he tried to make sure that she's comfortable with their position.
Eunji's head was resting against Nathan's thighs.
"More like I should be the one asking you that question hubby. Are you okay?" Kim Eunji seriously asked but then a giggle escaped from her lips when Nathan tickled her on the side.
"Aren't you going in the office today?" She asked him.
"Don't you think it is already too late for you to ask that question wifey?" Nathan grinned at her.
Kim Eunji made a fake gasp as she weakly tapped his chest and answered, "Oh, Mr. Bai's slacking off. Remember that you have a lot of mouth to feed in the future. Now's not the time to slack off!"
Nathan made a humorous laugh as she heard his wife's comment.
"Nah...even of I don't work for a month, money would still be flowing into my bank account. So don't worry, you and our babies won't be starving in the future."
Nathan then caressed Eunji's hair as he continued, "And besides, is this your indirect way of telling me that you don't like me around? Ouch wifey! That hurts!"
Kim Eunji made a faint smile to hide the sadness that she was feeling.
She knew that what she was going to do in the future would broke Nathan's heart.
"Of course I like you around me. But aren't you going to be tired of me?"
Nathan's expression softened when he heard Eunji's response.
"Not going to happen." Nathan confidently said.
"Why would I be tired of being around you when seeing you would only inspire me to be the best version of myself than yesterday?" He added.
"Geez! You and your sweet mouth." Kim Eunji said as nudged his sides.
"Of course! If that means this would make you smile and laugh, I'll do it everyday." Nathan said.
Kim Eunji could only shook her head in disbelief.
When lunch time almost came, Nathan temporarily bid goodbye to her so he could cook for her lunch.
Kim Eunji allowed him to do what he's supposed to do even if it meant that she'll be alone temporarily in the gazebo.
"Go ahead. I'll wait here." She said.
When Nathan left, Kim Eunji chose to close her eyes as she kept on enjoying the vibe.
Derek and Darren were also standing not far from the gazebo and was looking at her with worry in their eyes.
Now Eunji thought of the people she left behind in the university.
She had not talked with Nathan about whether she should stop studying or not.
As much as she wanted to, she hated it when her plans were disrupted by something.
Her plans to graduate this year had long been set on the stones.
But judging from what was happening to her, she was sure that Nathan would be against the idea of her going back to school at the moment.
"At least let me have things to do or else I'm afraid I won't die from the people who's after my head but I'll die because of boredom." Kim Eunji said to no one.
Kim Eunji decided to leave the gazebo and decided to roam around the entire property.
"Lady boss, don't wander much. You'll only tire yourself in the process." Derek voiced out his worry for his lady boss.
"Don't worry. I know my limits." Kim Eunji reassured him.
Eunji wanted to kill the boredom that she's feeling at the moment. She's not used to doing nothing.
Eunji's feet brought her to the music room.
Kim Eunji's eyes lit up when she saw the grand piano resting on the center of the room.
She immediately walked towards it and opened the piano cover.
She touched a few keys and she closed her eyes as it created a melody inside her head.
"Perfect!" Kim Eunji decided to sit down on the stool in front of the piano as she rested her hands on the piano keys.
A weak smile formed on her lips as she remembered the memories when Ana and her mom played music to her during their first meeting.
"Ana. I'm sorry. I failed you as a sister." Kim Eunji whispered to herself.
She then gently touched her flat belly and the smile in her lips became warm.
"I know your bond to each other would be so strong just like your aunt and I shared back then. Love and treat each other dearly, okay?" Kim Eunji continued to give lecture to her babies.
Kim Eunji then started playing an unknown yet very beautiful melody that she dedicated for her babies this time.
The music conveyed her emotions towards her unborn children as their mother. Every keys contained her love for them.
'I love you little ones. I know it's still early to say this but whoever would be the eldest, take care of your younger siblings, okay? And wait for mommy to come back.' She thought.
She didn't dare voice it out as she didn't want anyone to hear about this.
When she finished playing, she decided to go back to the gazebo as she didn't want to freak Nathan out when he found out that she's not inside the gazebo anymore.
Nathan might flip the entire place just to look for her.
When she was halfway going to the gazebo, she saw Nathan's silhouette standing at the pillars of the gazebo while he was waiting for her.
"Have you enjoyed your tour?" Nathan asked as soon as Kim Eunji reached his position.
"The tour's fine but I'm still bored." She finally admitted.
"Oh!" Nathan smiled meaningfully at her.
"Stop smiling. What I mean is I want to do something. Like... can you bring my Uni books? I don't want to slack on my studies even though I am staying at home and resting."
Kim Eunji emphasized the last part.
"Wifey...I think it's best if you should pause from studying until you're okay." Nathan finally told her.
"Wifey...your body needed to rest. So please listen to your body okay?"
Because of that forbidden technique she used at Jake and her sudden heart attack, she was weaker at the moment.
"I'm not saying that I want to go back to uni now. What I'm trying to say is that at least, let me do something that would make me not bored. You won't even allow me to hold any gadgets. You even ban me from using my laptop computer. What? Are you trying to kill me from boredom?"
"That's why I am here to keep you company. So you won't be bored." Nathan tried his best to explain to her.
"Geez! If you're going to do this for the entire time of my pregnancy, then no. I don't want it!" Eunji was not against the idea of Nathan taking good care of him. In fact, she loved it.
No wife would not want to be pampered by their husband especially when they're pregnant.
But if Nathan would continue to stick to her, she's afraid that she might change her decision later.
And also, if Nathan would always be around her, she might not be able to do the necessary preparations before she could execute her plan.
She could only hope that Nathan would understand her this time. She didn't know how to explain the situation without spilling her plans to him.
Nathan on the other hand pursed his lips as he tried to read what was running inside his wife's sexy brain.
He had read in an article that pregnant women had tendencies of being irrational especially when their decisions were influenced by their pregnancy hormones.
"Then...what do you want to do?" Nathan asked her as he wanted to know what Kim Eunji wanted to do.
"Simple. I want to busy myself in doing something while waiting for you to come home every day from work." Eunji started.
"Look. Before I came into your life, you have an empire to run. Thousands of employees are depending on every decisions you make. When I came on the picture, I became the center of your world. I'm not saying that I am not happy with it, I am even grateful with all the attention and love that you have given me."
"What are you trying to say?" Nathan intervened her as he was a bit confused on where this conversation was going.
"What I'm trying to say is have a life outside of our bubble. Don't make me the center of your world. I don't want you to get lost when the same thing happened to me again in the future." Kim Eunji's statement made Nathan to be angry.
"Eunji! Stop! I don't want to hear any of that nonsense!" Nathan scoffed and then sighed as he tried to calm his anger.
"Look, you and our babies will always be the center of my universe. Why? Because I love you so much! Now, if you're telling me to not place you in that very important position in my life, that is equivalent to telling me to unlove you which would never happen as long as I am alive!" Nathan emphasized.
"Nathan...I" Kim Eunji was rendered speechless as she found no words to counter Nathan's argument.
"Now...if you're done trying to make silly reasons, we better proceed to eating your lunch before it get's cold." Nathan said in a calm and loving voice as if he was not angry seconds ago.
This sudden shift of his mood made Derek and Darren who happened to listen to their argument to be confused as to who was pregnant between the couple.
Nathan? Or Eunji?
