Dare to take Nathan away from her? Eunji would really want to see the woman named Aimee try her luck.

If there's a measurement of how big her trust for Nathan was, then she was sure it would be over the moon.

Nathan time and time again had proven how he cherished and loved her dearly.

So there's no place for doubt in her heart that Nathan would never cheat on her. And if he did in the future, he should look for someone better than her Aimee or anyone he had involved with in the past, including herself, or else she would definitely beat him to pulp.

'Yes, they had met earlier than we did but I believe in my husband. He had changed for the better. And the span of time of being together does not really equate to how much you love the person more. It didn't mean that just because she came into his life first and was in a relationship with him for almost a year that he would love her more than he loved me.' Eunji thought.

Eunji didn't realize that she was lost in her thoughts until she almost bumped into a wall.

Good thing someone had stopped it from happening.

"Are you okay, Miss?" The man asked her with concern.

Eunji looked up and she saw a handsome face looking at her.

His build was like that of an Adonis. He had a pair of brown orbs, fine eyebrows, prominent nose with high nose bridge and a red kissable lips.

'Yes, he was handsome but my husband is more handsome than you do.' Eunji thought which made her to be in a daze.

(A/N: Eunji, are you checking him out?)

But before the man could even ask her the second time, Nathan's worried voice echoed on the hall, snapping her from her daze.

"What's going on?!" Nathan roared in anger especially when he saw the hand of the man touching Eunji's shoulder.

Eunji immediately looked at Nathan and to the man who had helped her and she immediately felt guilty. She didn't realize that she had almost bumped into the wall and hurt herself should this guy pulled her to the side.

And now, Nathan would be thinking that this man bad intentions towards her.

Nathan then grabbed Eunji by the waist and pulled her closer to him as she checked if she had any bruise or anything.

Heaving a sigh of relief, Nathan then glared at the man. Trying to intimidate him as much as he could. But the man did not waver. Of course, Nathan was somehow familiar of this person.

"Wifey? Are you alright? Did he hurt you?" Nathan asked worriedly.

"No. He helped me not to make a fool of myself earlier. Thank you Mister."

Ignoring Nathan, the man spoke to Eunji. "Luo. Call me Mr. Luo. And it's alright. Just watch where you're going next time."

Eunji gave him a polite smile and with that the man left ignoring Nathan.

Sensing that Nathan was still upset beside him, Eunji held his chin and forced it to look at her. She then showed her beautiful smile and moved her hand to caress Nathan's cheeks lovingly.

"What happened really? Why were you spacing out while walking? Don't you know how dangerous is it for you? You might trip and fall down." Nathan expressed his worries.

"I'm sorry. I was just so occupied about how we should celebrate your birthday together that's why I am spacing out." Eunji didn't want to lie.

Of course, there's no way she would let Nathan found out what happened.

Nathan frowned but decided to not pursue the matter. If his wife told him that it's fine, then it's fine even if he saw Aimee leaving the room where Eunji went out earlier.

If his wife won't answer him, then he would simply ask the culprit then.

Seeing that Nathan was still unconvinced of her alibi, Eunji then smiled as she reached out and grabbed his hand.

"Come on! I still have to change as EL tonight."

"Don't worry about it okay? There's nothing I can't handle." She meaningfully said the last part.

Sighing, Nathan decided to stay quite as he looked at his wife intently.

He then drew his face closer to her as he said, "You're too cute Wifey. You make me want to bully you tonight. Only I have the rights to bully you."

Since Eunji hesitated to let him know that Aimee was bullying her, then he had to subtly tell her that others are not allowed to threaten or bully her.

Eunji looked at Nathan as she was taken aback as to what the latter was talking about. She then smiled as she finally understood what he meant after looking at his bluish-green orbs.

"Okay. I understand. But don't you know I am a bully as well? I can handle it. And besides, I've learnt from the best master." She then winked then looked away and started to walk as she dragged Nathan towards the dressing room.

But before she could even make her second step, Nathan grabbed her from the waist and kissed her fiercely.

Nathan only let her go when he felt that she was panting and gasping for air. And he was satisfied.

"Breathe Wifey. You still don't know how to handle my kiss, do you? Then, you better work hard." Nathan said as if he didn't just bully her.

But before Eunji could process what Nathan was trying to tell her, Nathan once again spoke, "Stay away from that Mr. Lou."

***

Eunji then changed into her EL outfit and she even wore a blonde wig to conceal her black ones.

She forgot to wear it yesterday. Good thing not many had seen her with black hair. Only the models.

While she was changing on the dressing room, Nathan was sitting on the couch waiting for her to be done.

"Are you one of the judges for tonight?" Eunji asked.

"Yes. But someone will replace me. Fashion was not really my forte. I also ask Zhang Wei and Jeong Ho to join the panel."

"Who's going to be your replacement then?"

"It's a surprise."

"Oh."

Since Nathan said so, Eunji decided to no lot pursue the matters any longer.

At exactly six forty-five, Eunji dressed as EL finally walked towards the venue.

Lex was accompanying her since Nathan said he would be getting waiting for his surprise guest to arrive.

It's not because she was afraid to be seen with Nathan as EL, that was just her excuse yesterday. The true reason was that she didn't like others to eye at Nathan while she was busy working.

She knew that if she let Nathan to be there, the models would also be distracted during the shoot and heaven knows how many NG and wasted frames would that be.

(A/N: Excuses Eunji. Then does that mean that you were okay being revealed as EL when you're with Nathan. The man for sure could not keep his hands to himself.)

She's fine with it. Anyways, the press could not poke their nose on their personal life when both Nathan and her took some actions.

And with Nathan's capabilities, it's easy for him to threaten those big media companies to keep quiet.

And she was quiet comforted by that thought.

Eunji walked near the stage and she was greeted by a familiar person.

"Oh my gosh! EL!" The event director of course recognized her immediately and called her out.

The latter then immediately went to Eunji and gave her a hug.

They had few collaborations in the past when she was still working overseas and their collaborations were harmonious.

"Hi. How have you been Ingrid?" Eunji asked after they broke off the hug.

Ingrid was a French Creative, Fashion and Event Director who had been well-known for her clever ideas when directing live events.

"I'm fine! Oh my gosh! I could not believe to see you here! Well I already guessed it since Lex and the team were already here but ever since you announced your retirement, your members had been quiet about you. Like you disappeared completely. How are you?" Ingrid said.

"Yeah. Well, I am doing great! Enjoying my retirement. And I got the chance to have a new life which was far different from the glitz and glamour paired with the hectic schedule of the fashion industry."

"Oh. Then any chance that you finally found Mr. Right?"

Eunji looked at her in disbelief.

"Come on! I have been always wanting to talk to you in the past. Geez! You were so distant and reserved to me...no...to everyone! We always like, we always observed you from a distant and we know that underneath that thick eye make-up, and badass look, you're very beautiful!"

"Damn! Girl, don't give me that in-denial look. The way you carry yourself in front of others is so sexy and captivating. Your aura too. And besides, you didn't give us a solid reason behind your retirement. Most of us really believed you left the industry to settle down and have a family." Ingrid continued.

"Stop fluttering me." Eunji dismissed her shyly.

"I'm just blessed to be born this way I guess. Eunji said as she shrugged her shoulders in nonchalance.

"So, who's the Mr. Right? Is he from the industry? An actor? A model who happened to pose for you?" Ingrid asked in excitement.

"Nah. He's none of them. He's just a simple guy who owned a small company."

"Oh. That's good! As long as you're happy with him, then...us in the industry will finally support your retirement."

The two talked for some other things and then Ingrid excused herself.

Left with her own personal camera, Eunji took some snap on the venue using it and she smiled when she was satisfied.

Eunji then took her phone from her pocket and she decided to browse through her social media.

She opened her Instagram account and log-in to her EL profile.

Though her bio and profiles were full of photos taken by her while she was abroad, she quite had millions of followers.

This amazed Eunji as there were still people who appreciated the things that you do without even really seeing her in person.

There were also some photos of her back profile but never her face profile.

That's what she could only allow for others to see her.

Using her phone, Eunji then took a photo and uploaded it on her EL account.

She then added some captions: 'Hi everyone! Happy founding anniversary @ImperialUniversity!'

After she was done, Eunji then logged out from her account and she waited for the event to start.

No. Eunji won't be involved as the main photographer.

After learning of her pregnancy, the team immediately decided to not let her participate. They're afraid that she might get exhausted. They even felt guilty for letting her participate on yesterday's shoot.

Now, she's here as one of the VIPs on the front row.

Also, her dressing up as EL was her way of supporting her team members.

Maybe because of her intimidating aura when she was alone, no one dared to sit beside her when the audience and the invited VIP guests arrived.

They were mostly fashion influencers and some actors and actresses who were willing to support these aspiring fashion designers.

Moments later, the entire venue went frenzy with buzzing murmurs from the crowd.

"Oh my gosh! Celine!"

"Oh! Isn't that Master Bai?"

"She's with Master Bai?!"

"Then where's Miss Kim?"

Of course Eunji knew her, she was well-known artist who had gotten a shot in Hollywood when she played an oriental role in a movie which had become famous.

Though she had heard her name, Eunji really didn't focus on any artist unless if it's a client or if necessary.

Everyone watched as Nathan guided the beautiful woman beside him to the seat dedicated for the panel of judges.

But as soon as the woman looked towards Eunji's direction, she let go of Nathan's hold and then slowly made her way towards Eunji.

Though she was curious as to what the woman was doing, realization hit her.

Come to think of it, she indeed resembled so much like him.

Before she could even react, Celine had finally reached her spot and softly said, "We've finally meet. It's a pleasure to finally meet you. Hi. I am Nathan's--"
