It was already thirty minutes and Eunji and Kelly had not come back yet. Because of this, Nathan felt worried.

He was about to stand up to follow the two ladies when suddenly the lights suddenly dimmed.

And then the screen light up.

A video started to play on screen.

Nathan was about to ignore it but then, Mei grabbed his wrist and urged him to sit down and enjoy the show.

A familiar person was being displayed on screen. Everyone gasped in surprise when they recognized who it was.

Based on his looks and the background, it seemed like it was filmed today. To be exact, it was taken before they arrived here.

Then, a female voice could be heard and asked the person on the screen.

'What can you say about Master Bai?'

"Second Bro? Well, he really lived with his infamous nickname. He's really a Satan. A certified bully." Hua Zhang Wei answered as he smirked on the camera.

Before, Hua Zhang Wei and Kim Jeong Ho would call Nathan as second brother since he was the second eldest among them. However, Nathan would prefer them to call him as Nate. But when he was not around, this duo would still address him as second brother when asked about him.

"But he only bullied those people whom he cared the most! Except his rivals in business and those who want to court death. *Ahem!* Excuse me!"

"Today is his special day. What would you like to tell him?"

"Brother! Today is great day indeed, isn't it? Time indeed travel so fast. You have been a good and reliable friend...no, a good big brother to me since day one. Though you appeared cold in the eyes of many but actually in reality, you're one of the kindest person I have known. Nate, bro...all I wish for your special day is a year full of happiness together with sister-in-law. Happy birthday bro! All the best!"

Seems like he had only recalled something important, he then snatched the camera from the stand and said.

"And oh, to sister Yuki, though I have formally met you only yesterday, I could tell that just like brother, you're a good person, too. After all, your fans all around the world would not follow you as their idol. If I am not mistaken, this is the first time that you'll celebrate your birthdays together. So, happy birthday to you, too!"

Those who attended the basketball match earlier already had an idea about this, therefore, they were not that surprised as compared to earlier.

However, they didn't thought that they were born on the same day and part of a trio.

All of her fans knew that her real name was Yuki Sato. However, her manager then gave her the screen name of Celine when she debuted as an artist ten years ago to have an international appeal.

Though she started as an artist from an agency in Japan, her popularity soared to the sky when she was casted to play as a young female samurai protagonist who defended the name and glory of her clan until the very end of her life.

The movie was adopted from a manga and had gathered a lot of positive feedbacks from the manga's international fans because of how well executed the scenes were. Thus it won many awards locally and abroad.

Because it was well received, it was then being promoted to Hollywood. This was the first time she debuted in Hollywood as an artist and since then, she was always chosen as the lead role in many action movies.

Because of her sweet yet carefree personality, a lot of people loved her and had become her fans. With her face which was the perfect combination of Asian and Western look, her beauty stood out amongst the sea of stars. Her aura was also different every time she walked on the stage.

Her talent was also highly recognized internationally. Thus, she earned a lot of fans, especially in China. A lot of young ladies looked up to her.

Now at thirty-two exactly today, she was thinking of doing something else. Fame don't last. A single scandal might even topple all of her success to the ground over night.

So, it was necessary for her to slowly withdraw herself from the spotlight.

And the fact that she was related to the most influential man in the country and one of those globally, the news would surely blow up the social media.

Then the next video was Jeong Ho. Following the same script as earlier, he also expressed his message to the birthday celebrant.

"Nate, happy birthday man! All of us know how good and kind hearted you are. I know you have a lot of short comings in life but no one's perfect. But for us, your imperfections made you perfect. You're the second person that I trust the most in this circle next to cousin Jing. I know Zhang Wei and I could count on you and I promise, you can count on me, too. Wishing you the best man. Love you, brother."

Who would have thought that Kim Jeong Ho was capable of saying that touching message to Nathan?"

"As for Sister Yuki, I may have not known you as brother's sister but I have been a fan since you debuted years back." He then scratched his nape and gave an awkward smile to the camera. Even so, he still looked handsome.

"No wonder you looked like brother Nate. Anyways, welcome to the circle. Haahaha!" He then made another awkward laugh and then finally ended his message with, "Happy birthday, Goddess Celine."

Then it was Mo Jing-sheng next.

"Nate, you have been the big brother that I don't have. When we met back then, you would awkwardly eat your lunch under the tree for fear that all of our classmates would tease you when they saw what was on your bento box. Later on, I found out that our mothers had been closed friends back then. Since then, I treated you as my own brother."

"I have seen you at your best, I also have seen you at your worst point in life. I never thought no one could save you but then someone came and saved you from the pits of hell. Just like Lucifer, you were an angel but because of circumstances, you've turn into worst. But because of another angel, you became better. You don't know how proud we are to you, Nate."

"Nate! Know that whatever happens, I'll still be your brother. I love you man!"

"For Celine, I might have not got the chance to interact with you in the past, but I already recognized you as my sister. And I am sure my mother would be delighted to call you as her daughter. Happy birthday Yuki-chan!"

After his long speech, everyone was silent.

Who would have thought that these aloof men had this soft side to each other? Their friendship could cause others to be envious.

They were really cute!

They didn't even forget to greet Celine.

Now, on the screen was Mei.

Everyone gasped when they saw Mei.

No wonder Nathan and Celine were both good looking. She herself was a goddess and no one could deny that these two came from her.

But they were still curious why Celine grew up into a different family and had to be separated with each other.

"Nate, I love you son. You know that. Yuki, I love you too. So much! Thank you making me the happiest woman in the world this day my dearest children." One could already tell that Mei was getting emotional.

"Since the day you both were born, your personalities could be easily distinguishable. For Nathan, since you were a child, you had always been sensible and would never make me worry about you. But son, the more you did that the more you made me worry. "

"Yuki, you have been my sweetest lovely daughter. Okasan will always remember the day you smiled at me and to your brother when he held your hand. But because of my weakness you suffered the pain of being separated from your brother."

Mei sighed as she tried to recollect herself. She was really sad now. And what happened in the past would always be her sore spot.

"I'm just glad that your new parents didn't stop you both from meeting each other and didn't change the name that I gave you. And with that, I felt relieved and thankful to them from the bottom of my heart.. I know you loved your brother so much and he too, to you."

"Continue in supporting and loving each other. And as your mother, I'll be behind you both, giving you the unconditional support that you would need in your every day battles in life. I love you Yuki, Nathan. Happy! Happy birth day!"

Grandma Sana also left her message for the two. So did the Mo, Hua and the Kim parents in the video. However, they didn't know that Yuki was Celine so they forgot to leave their birthday message for her.

Because of that, they gave an apologetic smile towards her. She understood it though and didn't mind at all. She never celebrated her real birthday though. The one she recognized was the day she was being adopted.

Kelly did leave a message, too. Actually she was the last one to give her birthday greetings right after

Then the screen turned dark.

And then the stage lit up and a beautiful person wearing the burgundy dress was sitting on the piano.

The woman then looked towards him and then smiled sweetly. So sweet that it melted not only Nathan's but also everyone who attended the banquet.

Nathan watched as Eunji turned her attention back to the piano in front of her.

When she played, everyone's attention were all on her.

She even swayed her body along with the melody of the sonnet she was playing.

When she was done, she then stood up and gave a bow while everyone stood up and rewarded her a thunderous applause.

She then grabbed the microphone and started to speak.

"Sigh, seems like they all said what I wanted to say to you, Hubby." Eunji said in a childish voice as if she was complaining about someone taking her lollipop away.

"Surprise! Hahahhaha! I hope you do. After all, I promised to give your surprises too, right? Sadly I am not a master of this. So please bear with me." Eunji then sighed.

"Geez! I hate giving such a long speech. The only exception was the wedding vow I uttered in front of everyone on the day of our marriage. They were our witness."

Everyone chuckled because they knew Eunji was really less talkative.

"I could not find any superlatives that could describe how good you are as a person. And how loving and caring you are to me as your wife."

"Happy birthday Mr. Bai. As your Missus Bai, I'll always be standing right beside you to give you the shoulder to lean on when you're tired after a day of hard work."

"We love you so much!"
