The opening salvo of the week long anniversary celebration was held in the dome. This was an outdoor center purposely made for events like this so they could cater all of the guests and the students attending.

Nathan would be giving his welcome speech while Kim Eunji had decided to cheer him amongst the crowd. She volunteered to be Nathan's personal photographer. And she's excited to do the job well.

She had always been working on the background for how long. And for her, she would show her support to him by doing this.

Instead of sitting on the stage, Eunji decided to sit together with the students amongst the crowd.

Nathan was against the idea but he knew that his wife hated attention.

"Are you sure you didn't want to sit with me up there?" Nathan asked his wife one more time. They were resting on the back stage and Kim Eunji was fixing Nathan's tie.

"Nope." Eunji said adding a popping sound on the p part.

"But you are my wife. You should stand beside me as my partner in crime. You're the woman behind my success. My support. My pillar. My inspiration. My Empress." Nathan reasoned and made sure that Eunji would feel how much he valued her.

"Oho! You may be my husband, my king, my lover and the father of our children but before you met me, you're the emperor of an empire who mandates everyone from the highest subordinates to the lowest. As your empress, I want to witness your glory from the lower position so I could enjoy the feeling of sitting beside you at top."

Nathan could not help not to laugh because of his wife's reasoning.

"Fine. Then you should watch me carefully and closely. I'll make you proud!" Nathan said as he hugged her from behind.

"Of course you should. I didn't marry an incapable man, did I?" Kim Eunji joked as she poked Nathan's side.

"Aw!" Nathan acted fakely.

"Stop acting like a kid! My poke doesn't hurt." She said making Nathan to giggle.

"I'm just messing around. I miss teasing and bullying you." Nathan said however Kim Eunji knew that those words had double meaning. And hearing him say that, Eunji's ears had turned red.

Nathan smirked when he saw his wife's reaction because of what he said.

Then, they heard a faint knock from the door and the person behind was informing them that the program was about to start.

Hand in hand, the couple decided to use the side exit of the back stage where they would be parting ways as Eunji would be going to the audience side while Nathan would be going to the stage.

"Go and make us proud!" Kim Eunji cheered her man.

Nathan hugged her and planted a soft kiss on her lips.

"I'll be quick! See you in a bit and make sure to not tire yourself. Understood?" Nathan whispered to her ears and Eunji smiled happily

Nathan then moved his hand towards Kim Eunji's torso and he rubbed it gently. Then he left a reminder to his precious babies as he said, "Be good! Don't stress mommy while I am away. If I found out that any of you troubled her, then I'll make sure to let you all atone on your sin equally when you come out."

However, before he could even continue what he wanted to say, he earned a painful smack at the head from Eunji.

"Aw! Wifey, that hurts!" Nathan whined.

"Hmmp! Who told you to talk at my kids like that! Aren't you afraid that they'd hate you when they come out of this world?"

Nathan pursed his lips as he listened to his wife's lecture.

Kim Eunji was really not happy of what Nathan did. It might be a joke but he should not talk to them that way.

"Wifey, don't worry. They'll grow up treating me as their best friend." Nathan confidently said.

"And why's that?"

"Why? My explanation is very simple. My boys and I will share the same mission and goal in life." Nathan then wrapped his arms around her body and imprisoned her inside his love jail. Then he continued, "That is to respect the women of this family and keep them away from harm. So they better listen to me as early as now and not give you head ache."

"Geez! It's not their fault if ever I got dizzy sometimes. It's part of it you know. And I don't want them to feel that they're a trouble to me because in fact, they're my priceless treasure together with you in this world. I'd rather lose everything, but not you and them. You're all that I have left in this world."

Sensing that his wife's about to cry, Nathan broke off the hug so he could wipe her tears with her thumb.

"Geez! I'm not going to cry. So keep that thumb of yours away from my face." Eunji said as she smack Nathan's hand away from her face.

One of the staff then approached the couple as Nathan had to come up on stage to give his speech yet he's still not around.

Nathan decided to ignore this arrangement and decided to walk her towards her seat before he'd come up to the stage and make his speech.

As a husband, that should be the right thing to do to his wife.

He should make sure her comfort first before his.

"What are you doing?" Kim Eunji asked while looking at Nathan's face.

"Am I that handsome that you always wanted to look at me all the time?"

Kim Eunji's lips twitched because of Nathan's remarks.

"You're right, before I met you, all I cared were my business empire and nothing else to the point that I could no longer recognize myself. I was lost. But then everything had changed when you came. You helped me find myself and inspired me to strive and be a better version today than who I was yesterday. Yes, they looked up to me as their Emperor. But this Emperor would only bow down to one person, and that is you, my Empress. So let me fulfill my duty as your husband before I'll face them. Okay?"

The staff who was following behind them wanted to dig a hole on the ground and hide there forever.

Who told her to come and disturb their moments together. Now, he was being fed with the sweetest dessert that she was sure would not only gave her gum problems but also diabetes.

True to his promise, Nathan walked Eunji to her seat making everyone's attention to them.

"Please don't mind us. Wifey's extremely shy." Nathan told the students around them.

As soon as he finished saying that, the students started to chat on their respective chatroom. Their topics were mostly on how caring Nathan was to Eunji.

"Kyah! So sweet!"

"Mr. Bai's such a caring husband!"

"I want to marry someone like Mr. Bai!"

"Me too!" [X2000]

Everyone shared the same thoughts.

"I've heard that CEO Bai has half-siblings from his paternal side. I bet, they were also good looking as him. After all, they shared the same father."

"En! Who wants to join in hunting for his single step-brothers?"

"Sadly, there's only one Nathaniel Bai in the world! Huhuhu! Damn student Kim, she's so lucky!"

That comment earned a mix reaction from the students.

"Don't curse our goddess Kim! You're not the only person who had the same feelings for them but I will never dare speak ill to them. I like goddess Kim but since she had chosen to be with CEO Bai, then I should be happy and support the couple as their follower."

The top comment reply to that message said.

While the students were having a heated discussion on their school's chat room, Nathan was still holding Kim Eunji's hand.

"Hubby. I'll be here. I'm not going to run away."

"I know! But I am used to being around you most of the time so I'm not feeling good about this." Nathan said cutely like a child which made the guests (parents or guardians of the students) to be dumbfounded.

They felt like their eyes and ears had been playing tricks to them. However, seeing that the students had eyes that were sparkling as if they has seen and admirable scene, they could not help but ask them. However, before they could even start asking, they were shocked one more time when Eunji did something to Nathan.

Kim Eunji then reached out to pinch his cheeks.

"Don't be silly. I'm only a few meters away from you. You'll literally see me from your seat up there."

"Hmmpp! Fine. But after this, don't you dare leave me again."

'Since when did you become unreasonable?' Kim Eunji asked in her mind but she didn't realize that she had blurted it out.

"Hmm. I've been unreasonable since you childhood but you're wrong. I'm not unreasonable just like how you described me. I am just trying to flirt with you."

Nathan kissed her on the forehead as he made his way towards the stage.

Kim Eunji then took her camera and readjusted it. She should capture a beautiful photo of him.

Nathan delivered his welcome remarks while Eunji started working as she took Nathan's photographs.
