Chapter 344 - 342: Going Back To Beijing

Eunji and Nathan went back to Busan after that. However, Celine and Sam had decided to remain in Seoul for another day and a half because they wanted to explore Seoul like how a regular tourist would do.

They would be returning to Busan Wednesday afternoon since they would be leaving South Korea Thursday morning.

With Alora back online, Eunji felt relief.

As what they have agreed, Frederick's camp had sent a new proposal and Angelina had personally brought the documents personally to her.

After she had signed it, Eunji and Frederick's company, Heart's & Gems Corp., were now in this good cooperation. As mentioned, Frederick was now out of the project and his assistant would be the one in talks with Angelina during the preparation stage up to the launching date.

Eunji trusted that now with Alora's help, Angelina could manage this big project well.

As for Eunji, she had other plans for Frederick. If she could not attack the guy through business, she could get close to him in the underworld and continue playing the game.

She knew that the plan of seducing the guy had been thrown out of the window even before she had thought about it because Nathan was such a jealous man.

After what had happened to Alora, Eunji had decided to not give this dangerous assignment to the former.

She didn't want to put Alora at risk even if she was just an AI. Alora now had a special place in her heart.

After a few days of staying in Busan, Eunji had decided to leave South Korea with them tomorrow.

It's time to do her job.

"Eomma, are you going to leave us again?" Sophie asked especially when she saw her mother packing a suitcase with her weapons inside.

Eunji crouched down to have a serious talk with her daughter.

"Sophie."

"Yes, Eomma?"

"You know that I love you and your siblings very much right?"

"Yes, Eomma. We already know that. And we love you so much too, Eomma." Sophie said.

"That's good. Then I have to tell you something, okay?" Eunji gulped the lump forming in her throat.

"What is it, Eomma?" Sophie said.

"Your Appa and I have to go back to Beijing. Can we trust you and your siblings to behave with your grandmothers and Master Liu?" Eunji said.

"What?! Can we go with you, Eomma? Please!" Sophie was already used to this situation however, she still hoped that her mother would bring her every time she would leave.

"You can't baby. You have to stay here with your siblings, Grandma Mei, Great grandma Sana and Grandma Layla." Eunji felt bad to see Sophie pouting because she was trying to hold back the tears that were threatening to come out of her eyes.

Sophie was a Mama's girl and she wanted Eunji to be around her all the time. However, Eunji had to go on trips and other missions and Sophie would be left behind.

So Eunji gave her daughter the comforting hug.

"It's fine. I promise, after this business trip, Eomma won't be leaving you behind again. I'll bring you and your siblings to anywhere I go as long as time and the situation permits."

"I'll hold on to that promise, Eomma." Sophie said and she started crying on Eunji's embrace.

Seems like the other two felt that their sister was upset with something so they started looking for her.

Li Wei and Li Jun found their sister crying while being hugged by their mother.

And so Bai Li Wei started crying, too.

Eunji didn't have to ask because she knew what was going on.

"Come here! Don't cry, Eomma will be upset and cry, too. I'll be coming back so there's no need to be upset and sad, right?" 'This will just be temporary. I promise. We will have a peaceful life at the end of this.' She continued inside her mind.

"Mommy, can I come with you?" Li Wei asked in between his sob.

"Baby, I'm sorry but you all can't. Mommy will be going on a business trip." Eunji had to lie so they won't feel worried with her.

"For how long, Mommy?" It was Li Jun who asked her.

"For six months son." She gave them an estimate.

"That long? What kind of business trip is that?" Li Jun could not help but criticize the business trip which didn't even exist for real.

"Well, it's a very long business trip. Don't worry. Your dad will be accompanying me." She said which made the trio to be a feel a little better knowing that their mother won't be alone.

"So does that mean we can't see Dad, too?"

And Eunji slowly nodded in response.

"That's not fair!" Li Wei complained.

"It is only fair young man. Go and find your own wife to stick around with." Nathan said the moment he walked inside their room.

Eunji was speechless after hearing that.

"Hubby, our son is just two years old, yet you wanted him to find a wife and get married? It's not fair!" Eunji then looked at her sons and continue, "Don't listen to your father, okay? Stay with Mommy forever." Eunji said almost in a pleading tone.

"Okay, Mommy!" Her two sons were so obedient to her to the point that when they grew up, they would he having trouble in finding their respective wives that even if Eunji would set them up on blind dates they would either decline or not be interested with the women that Eunji had set up for them.

Well, Eunji's presence in their lives had set the bar so high for their future wives.

After comforting her children, Eunji and Nathan were left alone on their rooms as the trio went to their grandmas.

"Are you really sure about this? You can stay here and let me do the work, you know." Nathan said.

"We have talked about this topic many times, right? I'll be fine. And I'll be more than happy if you would support me." Eunji had forgotten that she had another son to coax so he would agree to her plan.

Eunji had told him her plan in going inside the International Prison someday to hunt down the man whom she thought could be behind all of these.

And of course, Nathan strongly opposed to her plan given the dangers that she would be facing while stuck inside that prison.

"Still, you can't blame me to not be paranoid. It's the home of the most wanted and notorious criminals all around the world!" Nathan emphasized.

"And I'm one of those notorious criminals that you're talking about. I am an assassin and I can handle those people inside that prison." She said while showing off her confidence.

She was confident that she can. However, the moment she entered that prison, she'll be on her own. And she had to survive that challenge.

The challenge didn't intimidate her. It even made her more excited to do it.

When was the last time she had fun?

It's been a long time.

"I still won't agree to it. I'm sorry." Nathan expressed his decision, making it much harder for Eunji to accept it.

'It's fine if you won't you can't stop me.' She said in her mind.

She had given herself deadline to finish everything. Therefore, there's no way she would let anything ot anyone to hold her back even if it was Nathan.

She still had time to convince Nathan anyways.

She was just hoping that he could understand where she was coming from. She really needed his suppory for her peace of mind.

As for Layla and the rest, they didn't know that Eunji had planned such a dangerous plan. Had they known, they would try to convince Eunji to change her mind about it, too.

The day for Nathan and Eunji to leave South Korea finally came.

Bidding their goodbyes was the hardest part especially when seeing their four kids crying and begging them to either stay or just let them come with them in wherever they were going to.

Though they had shown and acted and thought mature than their real age they would still cry seeing their parents leaving them.

After all, they were still children. They would always have separation anxiety after seeing their parents about to leave them with no exact date that they would be coming back.

Eunji were secretly crying too the moment they got inside the van which would bring them to the airport.

Nathan could only comfort her by gently rubbing her back.

Eunji had finally calm down when they're already up in the air heading to Beijing.

Derek was with them in this trip while Darren was asked to be left behind to watch over the children.

And also, there's nothing wrong to have an additional hand to help them with the four kids.

Eunji was asleep when they landed therefore Nathan had carried her out of the plane and going inside the waiting car for them.

Sam and Celine had decided to stay for a night in QPRC before heading to the filming location the following morning.

Meanwhile Nathan had decided to bring her into his office first and let her to continue sleeping inside his sleeping lounge.

Marco had called him last night that those board of directors which he had forced to buy out were making a fuss. And they even dared to file a complain against Nathan.

The Luo Brothers were back on the move again.

Now, Nathan would be calling an emergency meeting to reassure their investors that everything's under his control.
