Chapter 236 - 235: His Secret

Two months had passed and Eunji was now six months pregnant.

Her belly was pretty big now and she had also gained weight because her appetite had become better and bigger.

Master Liu had been monitoring her health and the babies to avoid complications.

Yesterday, Nathan and Eunji had also undergone a check up to check if the babies were okay. And they were indeed very healthy inside her.

Nathan had also renovated the room beside them to be their nursery.

Everything were set for the babies.

Even the place where Eunji would gave birth to them had been prepared this early.

One of the rooms in the mansion had been turned into both the delivery and recovery room for Eunji labor when they're on the 33rd week of pregnancy.

An Qi had personally suggested it to the couple and they both agreed after the former promised that the babies would be okay though they would be delivered prematurely.

Because Eunji's getting bigger and bigger each day, Nathan didn't let her to go out of the house or do any activities that could tire her out.

It's not because she was weak. He*ck, she exercised regularly and had practiced yoga and meditation on her free time for the past two months.

So she had no complaints whatsoever like body pains and pressure on her back and waist due to her belly getting bigger and bigger.

Their weights combined was not as heavy as the weights she had used to carry back then during her trainings.

So even if she looked heavy, it's like she could walk lightly or even run a marathon without gasping for air at the end.

Of course she won't run a marathon while she's pregnant or else Nathan and Master Liu would scold her non-stop for a week.

Sometimes she'd just feel lazy and act like a baby especially when Nathan was around.

Whose wife would never want to be pampered by her husband especially when she's pregnant?

Meanwhile, the launch had become successful and Nathan had just gotten back from a business trip last week.

After a long day at work, Nathan got home late and saw his wife already on her pajamas and was about to sleep.

Seeing her husband was finally back at work, Eunji got up from the bed and dashed towards him happily.

"You're back!" Eunji greeted her husband.

"Careful!" Nathan yelled after he saw her about to run towards him.

"I am!" Eunji grinned towards him.

"I know..." his tone had softened when Eunji was now finally in his embrace.

"Have you eaten?" Eunji asked her husband.

"Mm." Nathan hummed in response.

"With who?" Eunji asked as it was very rare for Nathan now to eat outside without her.

"With a client. We had to talk about something during dinner." He honestly replied.

"Oh!"

"Why do you smell like woman's perfume just now?" Eunji asked in a serious tone.

Though it was faint, she could still smell the Dior perfume on Nathan's body.

It's not that she was accusing him of cheating on her. She believed that Nathan would rather choose to die than sleep with a woman by force.

Eunji shook that thought off from her head as she hugged Nathan tightly.

However, Nathan's eyes darkened when she was not looking at him.

Something happened in that dinner earlier. While he was walking towards the private room where his client was waiting, a foreign woman suddenly approached and hugged him from behind.

Everything was so fast that even Tang Hao could not respond and took time to pull out the woman from Nathan.

Then...the woman claimed that she was carrying Nathan's baby.

She even presented a DNA report to confirm that the baby in her belly was his.

Nathan of course did not believe it as he had not even met the woman ever since.

And this was not the first time that someone had approached him and claimed that she's carrying his child inside her.

But this time, the DNA report looked authentic.

Though Tang Hao and his guards dragged the woman away from him and brought her to a 'safe place' as he had to question him after the dinner meeting.

Truth to it, when the meeting ended, Nathan and his security guards went into their base to question the woman.

When he looked at the woman, she was already shaking in fear because she was being locked up inside the cell with steel door and it was dark.

The doctor had already examined the woman and confirmed that she was indeed sixteen weeks pregnant.

He also sent one of his men to cheek on the DNA report that the woman was holding and said it was indeed authentic. He was indeed the father of the baby inside the woman's womb.

They had also dug up the woman's background and they found out that someone was behind it.

She was being paid to do it.

So how did he get her pregnant?

Two months before he had formally met Eunji at QPRC, Nathan had visited an IVF clinic abroad.

He didn't want to get married but he still wanted to have his own child who would inherit everything. Also that way, Mr. Johnson would stop pestering him to get married.

So just like his sister, his last resort was finding a surrogate mom who would bear his baby through IVF procedure.

Nathan was very particular when it comes to the surrogate so the clinic had to look for the best among the candidates. He had made sure that everything would be confidential as he didn't want his plan to be spoilt.

On the day of Kelly and Mo Jing-sheng's wedding, Nathan received a call that they had already found woman who could be the surrogate.

Nathan gave it a thought and asked the doctor-in-charge to cancel the procedure. He was not sure why he did that though.

But his mind had changed when he happened to look at Eunji while having that call.

His feelings for her back then was still unclear but something deep inside him had told him to stop the procedure and kill the eggs including the fertilized one.

But the assistant had already fertilized the woman's egg and his before the call was made.

The doctor thought that it would be a waste to terminate the fertilized egg so she stored it back into the container and froze it in case Nathan changed his mind in the future.

Little did he know that someone harboring ill intentions towards his and Eunji's marriage would bribe someone from the clinic and had successfully swapped Nathan's fertilized egg and injected it to a surrogate mom.

That woman was the original supposed to be surrogate mother of Nathan's baby.

And someone had paid her to be a surrogate again.

Then she was fed with Nathan's information and had shown with a lot of Nathan's photos making her to be obsessed with the latter.

When she was asked as to who paid her to do this unforgivable act, the woman was silent.

However, she was confident that Nathan would not harm her since she was carrying his child.

Truth enough as soon as Nathan found out that he actually had another child by accident, he had mixed emotions about it.

The baby was still his flesh and blood after all. And therefore was very innocent. He could not bare to abort it. His conscience would not allow him.

But that does not mean he would let the woman to wander around and ruin everything.

Yes, he kept the woman captive and made sure that the baby would be okay for an early deliver should he accepted the child. After that, he would never show his mercy to her.

He then asked Marco, who was currently in the US to look deeper into the matter and ask the in charge of the IVF clinic for a detailed explanation or else he would shut the clinic down and be removed from their profession.

Worst, he would make sure to make their life miserable for the mistake they had done!

Now, he was in a dilemma whether he should be honest with Eunji or not.

She was sure that she would be hurt should she learn the truth about it.

But, there's no way he would hide this forever.

Whether he would want the baby or gave it up for adoption, she still had to know.

Now...looking at the sweet woman on his embrace, Nathan could only sigh.

"Maybe because the date of my client had sprayed perfume while I was on the same room as her so the scent was still there." Nathan answered her with a lie.

Nathan had already changed his tux earlier but the smell of the perfume was really strong and it lingered on his white shirt.

Eunji pulled out from the hug as soon as she realized that her husband was being bothered by something.

"Are you okay?" She asked him and Nathan hummed.

With everything that was going on, he was not clearly okay.

Nathan was obviously guilty.

"Okay. Go and freshen up so we could sleep now, yeah?" Eunji knew that something was bothering her husband but she decided to not pressure him.

But it didn't mean that she would just sit back and let him be alone in the problem. After all, they're one team. They had been bound by destiny.

"Okay." Nathan tried to be act normal and kissed his wife's lips and forehead before he stood up and went to the shower.

As soon as she heard the water running inside the bathroom, Eunji went out of the room and went to her study room as she had left her phone there earlier.

When she get there, she opened her laptop and commanded her AI Program to check on what happened with Nathan earlier and sent the report to her phone.

When she was done, she left the room and then went back to their bedroom.

When she got inside, Nathan was already out of the bathroom with the towel hugging his lower part.

"Where have you been?" He asked her.

"I went to the kitchen to drink water."

Lie.

She didn't know why she did that though.

Good thing Nathan believed her and didn't ask anything else.

Nathan's nightwear had already been prepared by Eunji before he arrived so he immediately changed into his pajamas not minding that his wife could see him nude.

"Beautiful right?" Nathan teased his wife after he caught his wife staring at him with mouth agape.

"Yeah..." her faint voice echoed which made Nathan's eyes to darken as he heard Eunji admitting it.

Dropping everything on the floor, Nathan walked towards her not minding that he was still very naked.

"What...what are you trying to do?" Eunji stuttered.

Nathan sexily smiled and shamelessly said, "I want to eat you."
