Chapter 232 - 231: Miss Kim

Nathan sat back on his desk and waited for his client to arrive.

He heard a soft knock from the door and he pressed the control to unlock the door upon checking on the monitor of who was behind the door.

Tang Hao came in followed by a beautiful woman named Kim Hyun Joo and her male and female assistant.

She was the President of KSC Inc., the leading semiconductor firm in South Korea.

They wanted Nathan to personally invest in their newest project in developing the fastest processor a smart phone available in the market could have ever.

"It's nice to finally meet the famous CEO of Bai Corp. Thank you for the time, Mr. Bai. I'm Kim Hyun Joo of KSC Inc." She then extended her hand for a handshake but Nathan just looked at it and then ignored her.

Miss Kim immediately felt embarrassed and insulted at the same time.

She heard of his reputation for being so arrogant and had prepared herself beforehand but it was in another story when she experienced it herself.

She also felt insulted as he ignored her beauty. In fact, the man only gave her a quick glance when she entered.

No one dared to ignore her beauty in the past.

She's indeed very beautiful but when compared to Eunji, she's far inferior to the latter.

But it would always depend on who was being asked, though.

After all, everyone had a different standards for beauty. It's subjective rather than objective.

And in Nathan's eyes, his wife was far more beautiful than this Miss Kim. He was not biased because Eunji was his wife but because he believed that it's the truth based on other people's reactions when they saw his wife in person.

In fact, his wife was capable of making people of the same sex to question their sexuality upon seeing her. And he had enough evidence to prove his claims.

It's not his fault that he married a goddess. In fact, he was even proud to claim her as his wife.

Seeing that the woman was still stood rooted on the ground, he immediately said, "I'm not here to exchange some pleasantries with you, Ms. Kim. Have a sit so we could start."

Still, he didn't look at her on the face but on her shoulder.

Nathan spoke in English while Tang Hao asked the woman to sit on the couch.

Nathan was already in a foul mood as soon as she saw the woman entering his office. He didn't mind making her be in the bad mood either. He had nothing to lose anyways.

He would interact with her professionally should she looked professionally dressed when she walked in inside his company building.

She was wearing a knee-length skirt with slit on the sides and the blouse she's wearing was so fitted on the chest area that Nathan thought she's wearing a push up bra to make her chest to almost pop out from the fabric.

'Does she not feel cold at all?' Nathan thought.

"Could you wear your coat to cover your chest. I don't want my employees to think that you're here to seduce me and nothing else." He commented.

Yes, she looked like a sl*t trying to seduce him in her business attire rather than a potential business collaborator or partner.

Tang Hao halted from pouring the coffee on her cup as soon as he heard Nathan's words towards Miss Kim.

His words may sound harsh but he was only doing this to put sense into her head.

Also, he had already changed and most importantly he was now a married man. He must do his best to avoid scenarios that might cause misunderstandings between him and his wife, Eunji.

He didn't want his wife to dirty her hands again just to teach him a lesson. He should be careful when interacting with female clients from now on.

Tang Hao thought that Miss Kim's outfit was far better than those women who tried and had successfully seduced him in the past.

But he agreed that she should wear thicker clothes since it was still winter and the cold winds could make her freeze outside with that outfit.

And in fact, her female assistant was even dressed appropriately than her.

He thought that it was just right for Nathan to scold her.

Nathan's comments turned the woman's face into pale white. She didn't expect to receive such insults from this man.

Her sources told her that this man was a womanizer.

That's the problem, they used 'was' in telling her, not 'is'. Which meant that it was in the past and not the present.

She also heard about his marriage but she believed that a husband would never be forever faithful to his wife.

(A/N: Geez! Wake up girl! That man is already off-limits.)

"I'm sorry Mr. Bai. It's not my intention to offend you in any ways." She then flashed an embarrassed and apologetic smile on he face. She was hoping the man would give her some slack. Unfortunately, even her attempt was being ignored by Nathan.

Her male assistant then handed the coat for her to wear.

She embarrassedly wore the trench coat in a hurry as she didn't want to anger Nathan even more.

Then Nathan gave them time to set up their computer and connect it into the cables already resting in the coffee table so they could start their presentation.

Tang Hao then used the remote to change the huge floor to ceiling glass wall into a huge LED screen which was now showing their opening slide for the slide show presentation.

Yes, that glass wall was actually a huge LED screen which was showing the real time footage of the same view outside.

In fact, all the glass walls surrounding Nathan's office were covered by LED screens.

If one was not keen to details, no one could realize that it was actually a huge TV screen and not really a glass wall.

Well, technically, there's really a bulletproof glass behind that LED screen.

Eunji knew had already noticed about it the first time she came into Nathan's office.

She just didn't voice out her observation to him.

Of course, their visitors were surprised about this.

They thought a hanging white screen would come down from the ceiling and the cables were connected to a projector but this was far from their expectations.

Who were they underestimating though?

Ever since Nathan had conquered Bai Corp., he immediately added renovations in the CEO's office. He wanted his offices to be unique from the others.

The last that he wanted to have was to develop an AI program just like his wife had.

Tang Hao felt proud upon seeing the surprised expressions on their faces.

They were speechless.

Nathan cleared his throat to hint that they could start.

Miss Kim then recovered from her surprised state and started the slide show presentation.

Nathan sighed as he thought this woman would only relied on seducing her clients to get them.

Well, she had the skills in that department but didn't worked for him at all.

Fortunately, she was indeed skilled when it comes to giving presentations to her clients in business aspects.

From the way she talked, he knew that she was the one who created the presentation and this was her own project, too. In short, this was her forte.

The presentation lasted for fifteen minutes and Miss Kim was able to clear the doubts that Nathan had in this project as she had explained everything in the presentation.

Meanwhile...

Eunji suddenly felt thirsty in her sleep. So she opened her still sleepy eyes and looked around for a glass of water but to her disappointment, there's none. Her gaze then shifted on her clothes which were now placed on the bench.

Good thing he didn't tear her safety shorts and underwear as she had removed them herself earlier before Nathan did.

On the other hand, she felt bad for her maternity dress which she had bought the last time with the others.

The hook of her bra didn't escape Nathan's wrath too.

Eunji then took the quilt and wrapped it around her body.

She then walked towards his drawer and chose one of his white shirt.

She immediately wore it and buttoned the buttons together.

She rolled the sleeves up to her elbow and took her lower underwear and wore them. The hem of the shirt had only covered her middle thigh. Enough to cover the black safety short that she was wearing underneath. She looked freaking hot with the outfit.

She combed her hair with her fingers and then walked towards the door.

As she got closer, she heard a female voice talking inside Nathan's office.

She frowned as Nathan didn't inform her that a client would be coming today.

She knew that he would be meeting with the board today but that would be later this afternoon at two o'clock.

There's no way she would go out in this outfit. It would be okay if no other people was there in the office.

She wanted to message him but her phone was left charging in Nathan's desk earlier.

'Wait, why would I have to be shy? This is my husband's office after all. It's their fault that they'd see me in this state.'

No, it was Nathan's fault as he had torn her dress and the replacement had been delayed.

And she's super thirsty and was now craving for ice cream too.

Eunji didn't even mind looking for a slipper and walked on the carpeted floor. She's thirsty and at the same time still sleepy.

She then twisted the knob open and silently walked towards Nathan's desk, ignoring the other people inside the office.

Truth enough as soon as she walked in, Nathan halted from asking Miss Kim follow-up questions regarding the presentation.

And Kim Hyun Joo also stopped talking as her attention was caught by the pregnant woman who had just came out from the room behind Nathan's desk.

Upon seeing his wife, Nathan wanted to scold her. She's only wearing his shirt while crossing her arms over her chest a little higher to cover her bare chest underneath the shirt. And she even walked out of the room barefooted.

Tang Hao was sensible enough to adjust the temperature inside the room so the Missus won't get cold.

Nathan stood up and took her trench coat which she had left on his chair and wrapped it around her body.

She then hugged her tightly to keep her warm.

Although Tang Hao had increased the temperature, it was still cold inside the office.

Miss Kim could not believe what she had witnessed. She watched the man, who had a serious look on the face during the entire presentation, had become gentle the moment he saw the woman. Because of this, Miss Kim could not help but be envious of her.

She even felt insecure when she clearly saw the woman's face. She suddenly felt inferior and unconfident with her self and face. She wanted to have a face like her!

On the other hand, Nathan was about to lift his wife off the ground but Eunji stopped him.

"Stop! All I need is a glass of water and our ice cream." Eunji told him and then looked at the woman who was giving presentation to Nathan.

"Please ignore me and continue. I'll go back inside once I have what I needed from my husband." Eunji said showing off her possessiveness towards him in a subtle way.

'So she's the wife.' Miss Kim thought with envy still evident in her gaze.

But Nathan had other thoughts in mind.

"No. We're already done here. Miss Kim, an email will be sent to you within this week as my feedback for your proposal." Nathan told her making the latter to be a bit pleased since she could receive his email at least.

"Okay, thank you for the time Mr. Bai." Miss Kim said.

She didn't bother for a handshake as she had learnt her lesson earlier.

She left the office full of envy on Nathan's wife.
