The next day, Lucas had to leave early to visit the site where he had planned to establish his new business. He had established a new business in partnership with Mr. Zhang that he will be meeting on Saturday. Lucas wanted to enter the Real estate business that is why he had to first establish a partnership with someone who already had a lot of experience. The project will soon start which is why he had to visit the site together with the engineer and architect who will handle the project.
Meanwhile, Ethan just woke up and he went straight to the bathroom to take a bath while Leo on the other hand prepares the breakfast of Ethan that was just given by the restaurant downstairs. While Ethan was still getting ready, Leo had already received a message that Jiro had to arrive at the lobby of the hotel. The Omega wanted to be the one to pick up the other but since he need to get everything ready that he had asked one of the bodyguards to pick up Jiro from the lobby.
"Leo, Did Jiro call or text?" asked Ethan who just came out of his and Lucas's room.
"He sent a message a while ago saying that he is downstairs. I already asked someone to pick him up so any minute now they should be here." Answered Leo while he helps his boss. The other's belly might not that big yet but he is carrying twins after all and being careful is part of being pregnant, Leo knows that since he had been there.
"I see, we do have a lot of food here and I can't eat all of this by myself. By the way, Leo, have you eaten?"
"Yes CEO, all of us ate before coming here."
"I see…Lucas left early and it's lonely to eat alone"
"…" Leo was somehow shocked to hear Ethan say that since he knows that the omega didn't mind eating alone. There are even cases when he would insist on eating alone due to hunger but looking at the omega now was so weird. Leo thought that it might be the omega's pregnancy hormones that are making him say that.
"Leo I know what you are thinking, you better stop thinking that it is because of my hormones"
"Yes CEO, I just find it weird that's all"
"I know but there are really times when I miss my husband so it is not because I am pregnant. OK?"
"Noted Sir"
"Good *smile*" Ethan finds it funny that his assistant thinks it is weird that he suddenly felt lonely eating alone. If he was completely honest to himself, he started to become clingy to Lucas after he gave birth to their son. And there is a high possibility that the one at fault was Lucas, his husband.
During the pregnancy of Ethan with Asher, Lucas wouldn't even let his wife do anything alone. Especially the first trimester in which the omega didn't go to work for the whole three months. One reason was due to his morning sickness which occurs almost every day and the other reason was because of Lucas. Lucas forbade him from going to work during the first trimester. He would take Ethan with him to his office and let the omega stay where he can see his wife.
Lucas became too overprotective to the point that he would even make Daniel move a lot of his meetings for the sake of not leaving his wife alone. Ethan began to scold his husband for doing that but in the end, the other won. Not long after that Ethan started to always sit on the lap of Lucas while the other does his work. The omega would fall asleep after and he wouldn't wake up even though his husband is busy doing his work.
*KNOCK*KNOCK*KNOCK*
"Please do excuse me, I'll just open the door" Leo then left his boss and went towards the door wherein he opened it after confirming who was it.
"Sir Leo, I've guided Mr. Jiro here," said the bodyguard who had to fetch Jiro from the lobby.
"Thanks, Good Morning Mr. Jiro, CEO had been expecting your arrival"
"*giggle* Good Morning to you too Leo, you are back to being formal with me again huh," said Jiro making fun of the assistant who had welcomed him. Just like Haruna, he too became good friends with Ethan. Their relationship started with business partners who became good friends. Together with their friendship, their businesses grows more and more up until they became so popular.
"*smile* Not really, I am just doing my usual greetings"
"alright but from now on stop being formal! We are not even outside and no outsiders are looking at us so treat me like a friend like usual."
"Noted, anyway follow me to the dining room, CEO is there eating his breakfast"
"Breakfast? It's almost 11 am, did he just wake up?"
"Yes"
"Does that mean that Lucas is here too? You know that man never want to be away from his wife"
"Master Lucas left early together with Daniel, they are going to the site today."
"ooohhh…So Lucas left his wife alone? You're not kidding me right?"
"No, I-"
"HEY! Jiro! Don't think that my husband left me forever, he just needs to do some work today! *Pout*" Ethan could hear the conversation of Leo and his friend Jiro which is why he interrupted them. He was just eating his breakfast when he heard Jiro saying something about Lucas and upon hearing the name of his husband he stood up and get closer to the two omega that was talking.
"Oh! Ethan, Hello! Long time no see I miss you" said Jiro who was shocked when they heard Ethan suddenly talk in front of them. It has been a while since the two last saw each other. They only talk via video call or just a call since they live in two different countries plus they are both busy with work.
