Chapter 345 - 343: Let's Get Divorced

Nathan was sitting on his office chair while Eunji was still sleeping on the lounge behind him.

The trouble that he was about to face was just a false alarm.

Actually, it was Alora which messed up their system a little.

Alora was doing a system check on their entire system to make sure that everything was running smoothly.

Nathan was now in his office talking to Mo Jing-sheng, Hua Zhang Wei and Kim Jeong Ho. Marco was also there.

"So, everything was running smoothly now. You are now back on track." Mo Jing-sheng announced.

That was after they saw that the public trust had slowly came back into his companies.

Their stocks were getting better and have been performing well in the market this past few days.

That was after they had helped Nathan in clearing his name. And his employees who have been hurt by those accidents had come out and spoke in behalf of their boss.

Even those media personnel who have been camping outside the company building felt guilty especially when they were provided with snacks, hot drinks and good food while they were there.

They were even given a designated waiting area so they could wait for him safely.

With this positive attitude that Nathan's people had given to those who were trying to ruin the name of their boss, the response that they had received were also positive.

However, those companies which were taken down would still bark at Nathan's team and kept on blaming them for how they had end up.

However, they were just a minority. If no one big time would take them seriously, they would only be white noises in the air.

"It's all thanks to your help, First Brother. And of course to my ever reliable assistant, Marco. Thank you very much." Nathan did not forget to give credits to those who helped him amidst the crises.

Marco who have been standing quietly was shocked to hear his boss complimenting and thanking him like that.

"Oh, I agree. You have a very hardworking assistant here. I suggest you promote him into a higher position which he deserved." Mo Jing-sheng said after witnessing all Marco's capabilities in handling the situation really well.

He was starting to feel jealous because Nathan had found a trustworthy man.

"No! Please don't I love my job as Master Boss' assistant and I would never want to exchange it to any position."

Marco was grateful to receive such wonderful and heartwarming from his boss and his friends. However, he felt that he was performing well because he loved what he was doing.

That was his best secret that might no longer be a secret anymore.

"Are you sure? An executive position would be best for you. How about that?" Nathan said.

"No, Master! Please. I don't want it. There are people who are born to lead and there are those who are born to support the leader and I believe I belong to the latter. I'm at my best because I am backing a good and excellent leader and employer."

"I'm happy to dedicate my life and give you my support in everything Master Boss." Marco made a bow to express his sincerity.

"Fine. The man himself had spoken. However, I will give you a reward after everything is finally okay." Nathan said.

"I'm grateful to know that Master Boss. However, I won't be a hypocrite and try to decline that. I gladly accept that reward and know that I'll continue performing my best to help you and the Lady Boss." He solemnly vowed.

"Speaking of Sister-in-law, is she okay, Second Bro?" Hua Zhang Wei asked Nathan.

"She is. Just a little tired from the trip." Nathan said while glancing at his sleeping wife.

"Is she the real one?" Hua Zhang Wei asked him again.

"Yes, she is. Wait, how did you know?"

"I kind of slip the last time. But don't worry. It's only the two of them who knew." Mo Jing-sheng swore hoping that Nathan would not get mad at him for revealing something this big to his friends.

He didn't even mention this to Kelly knowing that his wife would be terribly worried for Eunji.

"It's alright. I'm sorry for hiding this from you. I'm in no position to reveal everything. I'm still waiting for Eunji's decision about this."

"It's okay. I understand where you are coming from. What you both had gone through was no joke at all." Hua Zhang Wei expressed even if deep inside, he was a little disappointed because he felt like Nathan did not trust him to keep this secret really well.

But then, he remembered that Nathan was not alone in this story, knowing that he pampered and have deep respect to his wife, so it must be Eunji's decision to keep this a secret.

"Wait, so who was the woman who showed up and pretended to be her during Alice and Iris's wedding?" Kim Jeong Ho asked Nathan.

"She was Anastasia. You mean Sister-in-law's twin sister?"

"The one and only." Nathan shared.

"You mean she's your ex right?" Hua Zhang Wei also added.

"Oh my! This is crazy!" Kim Jeong Ho said in disbelief.

"I know."

Upon hearing the truth from Nathan's mouth he was shocked and at the same time was surprised to know how fate had played dirty to his friend.

"Wait, so we have missed so much drama over this short span of time? Did you know about this, First Bro?"

Mo Jing-sheng answered Young Master Hua's question with, "I kind of known the moment Nathan said he would be going to where Sister-in-law was. Obviously, he was with the fake Eunji that time and I just put the puzzle pieces together and I was right."

"That's not fair!" Hua Zhang Wei whined.

"Shut up! You're disturbing my wife's sleep." Nathan said after he heard the bed movement inside the room.

"I'm sorry." He then apologized.

Seconds later, a still sleepy Eunji went out of the room. She then walked towards Nathan and gave him a sweet kiss.

"How do you feel now? Getting better?"

"Yes, I feel better." Eunji uttered in almost a whisper.

She then sat on Nathan's lap not minding that there were other people in the room.

"Eh? I thought you're with Sister-in-law but why another woman came out of the room?" Hua Zhang Wei asked after he saw Eunji who was still wearing her skin mask went out of Nathan's sleeping lounge.

"Oh! Everyone, I didn't know you're all here." Eunji said in her sleepy voice.

Upon realizing who these people were, she had decided to be honest with them.

"Sister-in-law?!" The trio exclaimed in shock after they saw that she was addressing them like she knew them really well.

"Oh! I'm sorry. Yes. It's me. Bai Eunji."

"But how? You looked different though your voice sounded the same." Mo Jing-sheng felt the need to ask her so he did.

"It's a long story." Then Eunji removed the skin mask off her face to reveal her true appearance.

After they had believed that it was really her, she then put on her skin mask again.

"This is my other disguise for everyone's safety. From now on, I would be approaching everyone with this face. Or I might shift into another disguise if this face would no longer be effective." She said the possibility.

"Wait, I'm sorry Sister-in-law but I really don't understand why you would do such trouble when you can fight them head on." Hua Zhang Wei had raised the question. For him, it didn't make sense at all.

"My enemies didn't want me to be with Nathan. That's why I have to look like this just so we could be together. And tomorrow, Nathan and I will file for divorce." Eunji seriously said the last part.

"What?!" Even Nathan was surprised to hear this from his wife.

He was strongly against the idea of divorcing his wife.

"No! I won't agree to that!" Nathan harshly stood up making Eunji to almost fall on the ground.

"Oops! I guess we should leave now?" Hua Zhang Wei told his other two friends.

They awkwardly left the room after that.

Nathan was so lost inside his thoughts that he didn't even notice that they were already alone in the room.

Even Marco had made a graceful exit to give the couple their needed privacy.

"What is this all about?!" Nathan asked her.

"We have to get a divorce immediately." Eunji was really serious about this.

"And you have to agree." Eunji added with the same expression on her face.

"No!"

"You have to!" Eunji said.

"Why should we get a divorce? Give me a solid reason and I'll agree." Nathan said.

Eunji's expression changed after she heard Nathan.

"I'm sure that my enemies already knew that there are two of us. That I actually exists. And I'm pretty sure they knew that I am married to you." Eunji paused to heave a sigh and then she continued.

"For some reason, these people didn't want us to be together. As long as we remained married, they would think that there's a chance that we'll get back together."

"I love you, Hubby. You know that. This is the only way that I know to protect us and our family."

Nathan was rendered speechless upon hearing her explanation.

***

While the couple were talking about divorce, the people responsible for messing with their lives were not in a good position either, especially the Luo Brothers.

Luo Tian and Luo Mian were wracking their heads on how they could save themselves from the sqtrouble they were in.

Though they were able fly to the US and were now seeking refuge to their allied gang, that was not enough. They have to do something to get back to those people who dared to put them in this trouble that they were in.

Their movements were now limited. Their bank cards were now frozen and they were now wanted by the authorities.

The only source of funds that they had now was the money he had brought with him when he escaped from the house.

As for their legal company, they no longer had any hopes with it. They knew that the moment they had become wanted, all their businesses were done for.

Because of what had happened, all of their companies' stocks had been continuously declining over the past few weeks.

It had plummeted down and the public were waiting for them to declare bankruptcy.

Their projects had been canceled and many of their investors had been pulling out their stocks and were starting to look for other companies where they could invest their money.

Those who remains were trying their best to save the company which had become their partner for a long time.

The remaining investors and stake holders have been calling them to answer to their questions yet they could not even call them.

The newly elected board of directors of their company had already removed them from both the chairmanship and the top executive positions.

Just so they could save the name of the company under the new leadership.

However, their move was futile because the stocks had remained in the rock bottom.

The new management could not bring their stocks even in the normal level.

They had no options but to declare bankruptcy sooner.

However, they were still hoping that somebody could save them from that happening.
