Chapter 18

Lucas stayed outside for a few more minutes until Allen came out looking for him. He asked Lucas what he is doing outside which made Lucas tell him 'nothing', the two of them went inside the house where Yasuhiro and his wife were talking about Ethan.

"Ethan really loves his job, I wonder if he will still take the position of CEO of Go Corporation," said Minami to her husband who is playing with their daughter the moment that both Allen and Lucas came in.

"Yeah, I think the family of his lover had a big contribution to his decision of becoming a doctor. They did help him when that incident happened you know, plus his lover is a doctor as well. With regards to him taking the CEO position, I already asked him about it and he did say that he doesn't want to disappoint Grandpa Go so he will still take it but he also asked me if I could handle it first. He wanted to achieve his dreams first before he takes the position." Answered Yasuhiro.

"And did you agreed to it?" Allen couldn't take it anymore and asked his friend out of curiosity.

"I did but under the condition of him getting a degree in Business Management also. It might seem hard for him but I want him to study more about that field since he will be handling the whole company and even though I will be there, I don't want him to keep on relying on me. So I told him to look for an online class for something like that which won't take up so much of his time going to a university. Plus there are some universities overseas offering online classes"

"And did he already enroll in any of those classes?" asked Minami, the situation became an interview towards Yasuhiro.

"As far as I know, he hasn't enrolled yet to any since he is currently busy with his thesis and his graduation is just months away so it's no rush. Also, he did say that he will continue working under the Hospital that is owned by his lover's family and in Capital General Hospital." Yasuhiro just continues answering their questions.

"wait, I heard it a while ago but Ethan has a lover? Is he an alpha?" the curiosity of Allen continues and this time it got the attention of Lucas who is also curious about it. He wanted to know if the omega whom he started to like is already taken or not but he somehow wish he is not so that he could pursue him.

"That's right, as far as I know, the two of them started going out three years ago, I'm not sure though but they first met when Ethan was rush to their hospital nine years ago. Ever since then the two of them had been together plus Ethan loves his lover so much. It would not be weird if the two of them get married in the future and to answer your question if his partner is an alpha, the answer is yes, he is an alpha."

When Lucas heard what Yasuhiro said about how much Ethan loves his lover, this made his heart hurt. The only thing that he could think of was that he was too late, that the omega who made his heart skip a bit just moments ago is already in love with another person. The person that he even considers to get married in the future and start their very own family.

"I see" Allen looked at Lucas who had been quiet ever since Ethan left. Only Allen notice the look that Lucas was giving to Ethan. He knew that his bachelor friend was attracted to the cousin of Yasuhiro. He asked Yasuhiro about Ethan's love life to also give way to his curiosity as well as information to his friend. He would support Lucas when it comes to his love life however Allen doesn't want his friend to get hurt because of love as well. Although that kind of thing is unavoidable especially when one loves the other so much, Allen just wants his friend to find the right person fit for his love. Allen is already married to his long-time girlfriend who is also an alpha and they have been living a very happy marriage while Lucas was still unmarried.

After asking a few more questions about Ethan, they talk about a few more things about the business proposal. An hour later, both Allen and Lucas leave the house of Yasuhiro since they still need to do some inspections or somewhat sightseeing for the sake of Lucas's decision of establishing his business in-country J.

-----

A month later, Ethan and Ken are both getting ready to leave the apartment that night. It was the day of Elise's engagement party, although both of them did promise that they will be attending the party, they still need to go to the hospital for their night duty. They just asked some of their colleagues to extend their shift for a few hours. They have decided to only stay for at least two hours or less and after that, they will go to work. They both have no choice since some of the doctors are attending a seminar in another city while Ken's mother is still on his maternity leave while Ken's father just decided to only take the morning shift so that during the night he helps his wife who just gave birth.

"Princess, I already informed the head nurse to call me if there is some sort of emergency that needed our attention. Although we will be there later we never know what will happen in two hours." Said Ken as they walk towards their car. Ethan just listened to what Ken just said, in agreement with him he nodded his head and just walk beside ken. They are both holding hands as they approach their car which is parked in the middle of the parking lot.

"It's a good thing that the venue is just a few minutes away from the hospital, we won't get stuck in any traffic if ever they call us," said Ethan

"Yeah, if they have chosen a very far venue I might not go with you even if I want to, princess"

"Not just you, I might even go as well. I will just call and congratulate them but since it is near we can both attend it even in a few hours"

"right, by the way, princess, Dad asked me where we will celebrate our graduation? It's just two months away you know" asked Ken. The two reach their car and decided to continue their conversation inside while Ken drives.

"Well, Anywhere will do as long as you are with me," said Ethan as he locks his hand with Ken's.

"Me too princess, I will go anywhere with you. That is how much I love you" Ken kisses the back of Ethan's hand as he says the word 'I love you' to him which made Ethan blush for a bit.

"We can decide the location on our next day off but it will only be possible if we don't have any work"

"Right, It's a bit hard to schedule a day-off these days plus some employees were setting their day off ahead of time. I will check later if I can set a date for our vacation. You should also check your schedule in CGH so that we can set a proper date." Ken was aware that a lot of doctors and nurses had been setting their long vacation ahead of time which is why he needs to check the available date that he could set for his and Ethan's vacation.

"Alright, I will check tomorrow." Answered Ethan.

The ride was just short since it is just a few blocks away from Ethan's apartment. The venue was at a high-end hotel that is very popular in the city, rumors have it that most of the guest who visits the hotel are Alphas who came from a well-known family or a very wealthy Alpha.. It is very rare for an Omega nor Beta to visit the hotel not unless they came from a wealthy family or a guest of an Alpha.
