Chapter 162 - 162 Their Babies

The news of him quitting his CEO position still shocked many and it quite create a stir in the business world.

Because of this, many showed their dismay in his decision and started to show their true colors towards him.

Now that the Johnson family was no longer behind his back, Nathan had received a lot of criticisms from critics and his recently formed business collaborators who decided to cancel their cooperation after finding out that Nathan left the Johnson family.

They really believed that Nathan's attitude and success was because the Johnson had been backing him up so he dared to offend anyone.

These people had no idea about the fact that the situation was actually the other way around. It was the Johnson family who were needing his support.

And they would realize that later on.

Luckily, those who had known and believed on Nathan's capabilities as a businessman decided to stay as partners and collaborators and even agreed on his decision of leaving.

They even encouraged Nathan to build his own tech company and be a new player in this industry to give the public consumers other options.

The employees of Net International were also in a grief for losing such an excellent leader.

In their view, he might be the Satan but he was the best leader for them who could always push the best out of them through his harsh constructive criticisms.

They felt that they could grow as an individual if they would stay on Nathan's side.

Because of this, a lot of top employees with great potential together with other executives decided to file their resignation as soon as possible and decided to apply on Nathan's company.

Andrew Johnson was reluctant to accept that he lost to Nathan and even wanted to sue Nathan for pirating his employees.

But Nathan didn't care about any of this.

The media was also curious on what would be Nathan's next move after that but to their surprise, the man completely went off grid.

People could not help but ask "Where is he?"

Nathan immediately flew back to the moment he settled everything back in the states.

He was then busy tending to his wife's crazy cravings in the island.

The couple decided to extend their vacation for another week until her nausea was much better and they could board the plane back to China.

If last time, Kim Eunji, hated his scent. This time, she could not help but miss him.

She would always be in a terrible mood if she won't be able to see him whenever she wanted to.

"Where were you?" Kim Eunji asked him with his arms crossed over her chest.

"Wifey, I just came from buying these fresh strawberries that you asked me to buy for you." Nathan patiently explained.

"You have a lot of men to do that in your behalf Nathan." Kim Eunji seriously reminded him.

"I know, but you would not eat them if it wasn't me who bought them, right?" Nathan refuted her.

This made Kim Eunji to be frustrated because what he said was true.

She could not help not to be emotional because of this.

As he saw her about to cry, Nathan felt like he was such a failure. He could chose not to refute her so that she would not be like this but he was so stupid and did it.

"Come here." Nathan beckoned her to come to his embrace in which Kim Eunji didn't hesitate to do so.

"Don't cry." He said while gently caressing her back.

"I'm not!" Kim Eunji spit back.

She hated herself for not being able to control her emotions.

Nathan then carried her in his arms and his heart ached when he felt her lighter in his arms.

She had lost weight in just a short span of time.

She would only ate those fruits that she craved and nothing else.

Manang Ines kept on making her ginger tea to help with her nausea and it did help a lot.

Dr. An Qi was always on standby and kept on checking her blood pressure and blood sugar level.

But still, none of them could convince her to eat what was healthy for her.

Nathan then carried her to the kitchen. Upon arriving, he then gently placed her on the bar stool so she could watch him washing the fresh strawberries under the running water.

Nathan then took a clean plate and placed them there. He then took the bottle of seasoned hot chili sauce from the cupboard and gave it to her.

Kim Eunji's eyes sparkled with her mouth starting to salivate when she saw what she was craving to eat all prepared in front of her.

Kim Eunji started to eat them not minding that she was creating a mess on her face.

Nathan felt relieved as at least she was eating something and not would not have an empty stomach but he was also worried as she had been eating such weird combinations of fruits.

Right now, he was so sure that it was super spicy but she was eating as if she didn't feel any burning sensation in her mouth at all.

In fact, she was eating like baby which Nathan found this very scene adorable and cute especially how her cheeks would bulged as she chewed the strawberry inside her mouth.

He felt like putting her in his hand and then kept her in his pocket forever.

She was so cute that he couldn't help not to reach out and pinch her cheeks.

Kim Eunji started to feel irritated that she shut him a glare.

She didn't want to be disturbed while eating.

Her face looked even more adorable and cuter as she looked like an angry kitten staring back at him.

He wanted to tease her even more.

However, Nathan knew his limits.

He knew better not to piss her or she would bit him really bad to the point that he would bleed.

The dressed wound on his arm was evident to that. Good thing he didn't get any infection because of that.

After having her twelfth and last strawberry, Nathan then helped her clean up.

He took a piece of clean wet cloth and wiped the smudged chili sauce on her lips.

When he made sure that she was clean, he then carried her to the couch and let her to stay there while he would have his lunch.

The smell of food would still make her want to vomit so it was not a good idea to have his lunch beside her.

So it was best to let her stay in an area far enough where she could not smell the smell of food but she could still see him having his lunch.

After eating, Nathan carried her towards the tree house where Kim Eunji would usually spend her time knitting.

Manang Ines taught her how to do it since she didn't have anything else to do.

Nathan had forbade her to use any electronic devices after she had pulled an all-nighter just to help him back then.

The stress that she got was too much that she bleed a lot and almost lost the baby if not for An Qi's intervention.

"Are you ready for later?" Nathan asked Kim Eunji who was sitting on his lap as she was knitting for the baby's bonnet hat.

"Yeah. At least we could see her first scan." Kim Eunji replied.

They would be doing their first ever scan today thus enabling them to see their baby's first ever image.

Telling that they were both excited was such an understatement.

"Yeah." Kim Eunji dreamily said.

She could already foresee an image of a little girl running around their house with Nathan chasing after her.

She would have his father's eyes and her facial structure. She would be the prettiest baby one could have ever seen.

Nathan saw that dreamy look in her eyes and he kind of had an idea what was going on in her mind.

Nathan was looking forward to see a son and a daughter running around their house. The son would have her mother's features while the little girl would have his features.

And he felt like his prediction would be right.

"Wifey...do you have any idea on how many we're expecting?" Nathan curiously asked her.

"One, and it will be a girl." Kim Eunji told him her guess.

"How about you?" She asked him back.

"I bet, it's going to be more than that. I'm not sure on the exact number though but I know I'm right." Nathan confidently said.

"Oh...then let's see who's right later on." Kim Eunji told him.

Well, the chance of having multiple pregnancy could be possible for them since twins ran in their family.

But is it wrong for her to hope of having only one on this first pregnancy?

The idea of having twins was quite overwhelming for her and she didn't know if she could do it.

'You can, Nathan's beside you. He won't leave you.' Kim Eunji tried to convince herself.

The time finally came when the ultrasound machine which Nathan had bought was ready to use.

Nathan decided to buy the machine instead of traveling to the mainland just to do the scan in the nearest private clinic.

"Ready?" An Qi asked Kim Eunji who was lying on her stomach with her legs wide open facing An Qi as the latter was about to insert the transducer inside her vag*na.

"This won't hurt. You would feel like peeing which was completely normal so you should relax." An Qi added.

Nathan who was sitting on a stool beside her was patiently looking at the monitor in anticipation.

Then, he looked at Kim Eunji and gently planted a soft kiss on her forehead.

Kim Eunji hissed in surprise when she felt the tip of the transducer being inserted inside her.

Seconds later, the screen flashed an image of her uterus and the first image of their baby.

Kim Eunji's eyes teared up when she finally saw them for the very first time.

"Seems like God had blessed you so much. Congratulations for having let's see."

An Qi was about to count the number of embryo inside her uterus when Nathan interrupted her.

"Thank you."

"Don't you want me to tell you how many are you both expecting?" An Qi asked Nathan.

"Knowing that it was more than one is enough." Nathan firmly said.

And besides, from the looks of it, Kim Eunji knew how many were growing inside her.

No wonder she was always starving but sadly she didn't like to eat all of the healthy food that was being prepared just for her.

Thus making her to lose weight.

After the scan, Nathan accompanied her on her afternoon nap.

Nathan's head was on Kim Eunji's belly as if listening to their heartbeat.

"What are you doing?" Kim Eunji curiously asked him.

"I just wanted to listen on their heartbeat." Nathan truthfully answered.

"Too excited eh? You know we could only listen to it on the fifth to sixth week right?" Kim Eunji told him.

"Fine...but still I want my presence to be recognized by them as early as now. I want them to feel how much I love them." Nathan honestly answered.

"And of course, how much I love their mother." Nathan then claimed her lip with his mouth.

"And I love you more." Kim Eunji said in between their kiss.

Their kiss heated up and Nathan was already having a hard on. He badly wanted to have her but decided to stop himself as it was dangerous for the babies if they would do it at this stage.

An Qi's constant reminder that they should wait until the first trimester was over before they could be intimate again to each other kept on replaying on his mind.

Kim Eunji who was also turned on could groan in frustration when Nathan stopped the kiss and moved to kiss the top of her head instead.

"Sleep. I'll wake you up after two hours." Nathan told her.

Kim Eunji hummed in agreement. Yes, she wanted him to continue but she felt like her body was not cooperating as she felt tired and sleepy. And An Qi's reminder also kept on replaying in her head.

Nathan woke her up when it was time for dinner.
