Family? The thought of having little versions of themselves running around this property made Kim Eunji's heart to skip a beat. Since when did she start looking forward to that day?

It just came unexpectedly with her. As she thought of this, she suddenly felt like her face was heating up.

"As the new Mistress, you can design the house according to your liking." He added that made Kim Eunji to be surprised.

"No. I'm afraid... I'll just ruin it. Let someone to do the job instead."

Nathan was somehow a bit disappointed. He wanted her to be involved in everything as his other half.

"As long as it's you that I'm sleeping with in this room. I don't mind even if the colors are all black or white. As long as I could feel you around in this space. As long as it's with you, Nathaniel Bai, I would surely like it." Kim Eunji added as she didn't want to make Nathan to misinterpret her intentions.

"Why do I feel like you're trying to flirt with me?" Though Nathan said it in a calm tone, Kim Eunji felt like he was actually teasing her.

"I'm not!" She retorted. However she didn't expect for the man to show his shamelessness once again.

"It's okay. As long as it's me that you're flirting with and not someone else, I would like to hear more of it coming from you."

"You! Aish!!! You baka!" Kim Eunji retorted.

"Yes! I'm the only idiot that you love and will only love in this lifetime." He tried to coax her.

Nathan patiently waited for Kim Eunji to talk. He wondered if he made her upset this time.

After a minute of silence, Kim Eunji finally spoke on the other line.

"When will you be coming home?"

"Why? Do you already miss me?" He asked but only silence answered him. He somehow learned that Kim Eunji had the tendency to be shy when it comes to expressing what she felt inside her. It was already a great achievement on his part that he had somehow managed to make Kim Eunji to confess her true feelings for him last night.

He wondered if the accident didn't happen, will the outcome be the same?

"I just want to know. Is there any problem with that?" Kim Eunji refuted. Of course there's no way she would admit that she indeed missed him. She didn't want him to be too cocky the next time they'd meet. Also, she wanted to maintain her pride as a woman.

"I'll be back a day after tomorrow probably." Nathan was not sure when yhe conference would end.

But Kim Eunji was silent.

"I love you Missus Bai."

"Stop that! Were not even married yet!" She refuted but soon regretted as the man had found more chances to tease her more.

Nathan only chuckled as a response.

"Don't worry love, that time will come." 'When you less expected it.' He continued in his thoughts as he didn't want her to freak out if he said very soon. He knew that though she could be dumb with her feelings but she's extremely smart and observant when it comes to other things.

"I'm not in a hurry. Are you?" Kim Eunji felt like she should ask him this question.

'Isn't it being engaged better than being boyfriend and girlfriend?' She asked in her mind.

"I am." Though he replied shortly, Kim Eunji could feel his inner feelings the way he said it.

'You're too amazing that I'm afraid that someone would snatch you away from me.' Nathan continued in his thoughts.

'Would you let that day to happen?' A voice in his head suddenly asked him.

'Of course not!' He firmly answered.

However, only by making her officially his would ease the worries in his heart.

He would never deny that there were better men than him out there. He was afraid that Kim Eunji would meet a better man and would change her mind and feelings towards him. If there's any way that he could make her fall in love with him every day, he would do that so that the time that he feared the most would not happen.

He had already found the woman who was destined to be with him. There's no way he would let her go or others to snatch her away from him.

"Don't worry, this marriage would never be a burden to you." Nathan reassured her but he failed to hide the tone of disappointment in his tone.

This made Kim Eunji felt bad.

Before she could even say anything, the call had already disconnected.

Kim Eunji looked at her phone screen with a heavy heart.

She felt like she had messed up. She wanted to call him back but as she thought that he might be busy with his business, she decided not to.

She hoped that Nathan would still want to talk to her after what happened.

She then heard someone knocking on her door.

"Mistress! Dinner's ready!" The woman behind the door announced.

"Okay! I'll be there shortly!" Kim Eunji yelled back.

She tried to shake off the thoughts that were clouding in her head and decided to walk out of the room.

Because of jet lag, Kim Eunji had a little appetite.

She looked at the food which she knew was prepared especially for her and sighed inwardly.

This made her to be guilty even more.

Nathan never failed to take care of her even when he's away. And look at what she did, she made him upset.

"Mistress, is the food not your liking?" Aunt Lucy asked.

"No...they're delicious. If today was another day, I would surely eat them..." her voice trailed off as she continued, "I'm not really feeling well. I'm afraid I'll only threw up if I'll force myself to eat them."

Aunt Lucy's face lit up as soon as she heard Kim Eunji however, it was soon replaced with worries when Kim Eunji continued.

"It's not what you think. Nothing had happened between me and Nathan. Jet lag...that's it. I usually don't have appetite after a flight." She reasoned. Although she already knew the real reason why she's like this.

Aunt Lucy did not force her to eat the food. She instead volunteered to make a fruit shake that could ease her jet lag and make Kim Eunji feel better. She told her to wait in the other room that they had arranged for her.

Nathan somehow guessed that Kim Eunji might not like the room that's why he had instructed them to clean another room just in case the scenario happened. And it indeed happen.

Earlier while Nathan was talking to Kim Eunji on the phone, he managed to send her a message to do plan A 2.0.

The room was still spacious but relatively smaller than the master's bedroom but Kim Eunji preferred the new room over the other one.

Kim Eunji then decided to freshen up as she waited for Aunt Lucy to bring her fruit shake.

She was changing the dressings of her wounds when she heard a knock on the door.

"Come in!" Kim Eunji shouted as she gave her the permission to enter. Kim Eunji then finished putting the tape and then put everything back in her first-aid kit.

Since Kim Eunji's hair was partly wet and not wearing the beanie, Aunt Lucy could now see the dressing in Kim Eunji's forehead. She had been informed beforehand that Kim Eunji had suffered from an accident but she didn't know where she was hurt. She thought that the accident had managed to disfigure Kim Eunji's face.

"Mistress, here's your shake," Aunt Lucy had somehow managed to say like she had seen nothing.

"Thank you." Kim Eunji said as she took a sip of it. The shake was not cold because Nathan had told her beforehand that Kim Eunji was having her period.

"Mmm." Kim Eunji hummed in satisfaction. She liked it. Aunt Lucy made sure that Kim Eunji would finish the entire glass before she saod goodnight and bid her goodbye.

Kim Eunji then did her night skin care routine before she decided to lay down in her bed.

She then grabbed her phone and checked if Nathan messaged but to her disappointment, he didn't.

"Nathan Baka!" Kim Eunji mumbled.

She then opened her messaging app and typed.

'I MISS YOU.'

But she decided to delete it before she could even send it.

She then typed the same message but decided to not send the message to him the second time.

She typed the message for the third time but instead of pressing the clear button, she accidentally pressed the sent button.

Kim Eunji inwardly cursed herself. She didn't want him to misunderstood her.

"Baka!" She knocked her head hard.

"Hssss!" She hissed in pain.

She then placed her phone back to the bedside table and decided to turn off the lights when her phone buzzed.

She immediately grabbed it not minding of who it was.

To her dismay, it was not Nathan but Kelly who messaged her. Then her phone rang with Kelly on the caller ID but she decided to ignore the call as she felt like she had no energy left to talk.

But before she called it a night, she sent Kelly a message informing that they would talk tomorrow instead because she's tired.

Kim Eunji was already in a drowsy state when her phone suddenly buzzed.

She didn't want to open it at first but still decided to, in the end.

Her sleepiness was thrown out of the window when she saw who sent the message.

[I miss you, too.] Her phone then buzzed and this time the message said;

[I love you my love...my life...Goodnight!!😘😘😘]

Kim Eunji felt like she was on cloud nine after she found out that he was not mad with her.

"I love you, too." She replied.

Her phone then rang showing Nathan in the caller ID.

Kim Eunji did not hesitate to answer the call.

"Can't sleep?" Nathan asked on the other line.

"Mm." Kim Eunji hummed in response.

"Be good and don't do any stupid things while I am away. Don't tire yourself by doing such petty tasks. The servants are there to serve you as their Mistress." He reminded her.

"I know." She heaved a huge sigh of relief as she finally heard his voice.

"I miss you." Kim Eunji admitted as she had somehow found the courage to say it.

"I miss you, too. But don't worry, I'll be back before you knew it." Nathan replied.

"I'll count on that then."

"Do you want me to sing a lullaby for you to sleep?" Nathan asked after a moment of silence.

"No, you must be busy."

"I'm not and even if I'm indeed busy, I will always make time for my wife."

Kim Eunji's heart felt warm.

"Or we could do some naughty stuff before you sleep." Kim Eunji's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Nathan!" 'How come you could be horny even in situations like this.' She continued in her head as she didn't want to hear another shameless reply from him.

Nathan chuckled on the other line.

"I know. That's why I'd prefer to sing a lullaby instead."

Kim Eunji heaved a sigh after she felt at ease.

"Close your eyes." Nathan instructed and then a baritone voice started to sing.

Kim Eunji felt like she was being enchanted by him as she suddenly felt drowsy.

Moments later, Nathan could only hear series of even breathing on the other line.

"Good night my love. I hope you'll dream of me."

"Mmm." Kim Eunji moaned on the other line which made him chuckled in disbelief.

"Silly girl. Sleep well."

Nathan ended the call and walked towards his car.
