After enjoying their ice cream, Nathan and Eunji decided to go to the gym as a basketball tournament was being held.

They wanted to take a look to support their players who were competing against their fellow students in every seven department.

The game had just started when they came in.

Nathan and Eunji were invited to sit on the front row to watch the game up-close but they declined this offer and decided to watch on the bleachers.

The gym was packed as most of the students were there to support their respective team.

They wanted to have a good view of the game. And what's the best position to watch the ball game? It's on the top seat.

The students watched as they made their way up. The game announcer announced that Nathan and Eunji had come to watch the game. This way everyone was in high spirits.

Each department would have a chance to go against each other in a round robin game format.

The game as of the moment was between the Business Department and the IT Department.

Both teams were very competitive.

Of course, though this was a friendly game, but the competitiveness of each player showed up when the name of their department was on the line.

The first half ended and the game was tied.

Nathan looked at his wife and asked if she's okay in which Eunji only hummed as an answer.

Nathan chuckled when he saw that his wife was so focus on the game.

"Who do you think will win?" Nathan suddenly asked his wife.

"Both teams were in good condition. Well, the competition had just started so the players were all fresh and had not suffered from fatigue, yet. However, the IT department had the height advantage as they had tall players in their entire line-up. Not only that, they were good at defense considering their height. They were pretty quick but slower when compared to their opponent. On the other hand, the business department had shorter yet faster forwards and point guards who were able to make baskets when they got the chance. The only common between them was that were no three-point shooter on each teams. All they did was a lay-up or mid-point shots but never a three-pointer. Let's see after when there's six minutes left in the game."

Eunji spoke as if she was giving a detailed commentary of the game.

Winning depends on a lot of factors. Teamwork was the major key, but the individual determination to win the game was important as well. Then, the athlete's skills and talent to the game. Player's sports IQ and many other factors.

"Have you played team games before?"

"Nope. I haven't. Honestly, I didn't know what teamwork means. I used to do solo during missions. My parents told me to not easily trust someone in the field as they might sold me out to enemies. So I never did. I only come across of what teamwork is when I started to be EL. Those guys. Alice, Magnus and the rest, I only happened to got a chance encounter with them and helped them solve their problems. But they offered to help me out. My career as EL was very comfortable because of them." Kim Eunji explained to him.

Nathan smiled as he watched Eunji's eyes had became gentle underneath those eye glasses when she spoke of them.

"Speaking of which, how are your team now?" Nathan asked as the last thing he heard was that her team had moved to Beijing a month ago.

He didn't interrupt his wife's arrangement as the latter asked him not to. But Eunji once told him that she was putting up a photo studio and her team would be her business partners and also the first employees of the studio.

Their opening would be two weeks from now and Eunji was expected to be there.

Aside from that, she also gave them higher position in her foundation.

At first, they were shocked to find out that Eunji was the founder of these two known foundations all over the world. They could not believe that it belonged to her!

What even shocked them was that the source of the funds. It was from her own pocket.

To prevent some malicious people in using her foundations for their personal agenda or interests, Eunji strictly didn't allow any donations from politicians or other influential people all over the world.

The money alone came from something dirty but still she didn't want her pure intentions to help the needy to be mixed with dirt.

Kim Eunji didn't do an in-depth discussion about the source but saying that they came from dividends from investing in stocks, then they didn't doubt her.

Among her team, only Alice knew a bit of her background. She didn't want to drag them in her messy past.

And it was best for them to know a little about her.

Eunji's foundations had been so hot to those kinds of malicious people.

That's why the foundation seldom granted invitations to attend a party, balls or any charity functions. If there was any, they chose those small once in the condition that they won't disclose this to the media. Of course Eunji had her ways of finding out if they complied with the set conditions or not before attending.

Kelly, though she was once the head field director and had attended those events in-behalf of the foundation as their spokesperson, she had denied that she had met and see the founder in person when asked.

She even told them that she was getting paid to do this. So to protect her safety, Eunji made sure to have two to three body guards around her.

But now, because of her pregnancy, she had to resign and stay at home. Eunji made sure that they would release this news so no one would bother her anymore.

But still, she was promoted as an Elder of this foundations now together with Eunji's team and Iris.

Because they were making waves globally and still refused cooperation with those people, it even came to the point when article was being published against them.

They had become a threat to public safety internationally. The issue was the source of their funds.

But Eunji found a way to turn the tables. And now her foundations had operated freely since then without bothering them whatsoever.

But she knew that the issue would always come back eventually sooner.

To prevent this from happening, Eunji asked Nathan for a partnership.

That way she would have a perfect back-up if someone would dare question their source of funds.

They had announced it a couple of weeks ago but no media coverage was being done when they were signing the papers. Instead, they sighed them inside their bedroom.

To back it up more, the Mo, Kim and the Hua decided to join in too after Nathan convinced them to do so.

Of course given that Nathan must introduce the founder to them.

They had doubts about it but they trusted Nathan the most so they agreed.

They were also curious as to who this secret philanthropist was.

They were eager to meet him because they wanted to get to know him and asked why he was doing such big cause.

And that faithful meeting would be happening tomorrow.

So they had to go back at their mansion tomorrow night to have dinner with them.

Going back to Imperial Uni, the second half was about to start and Nathan asked Eunji if she needed anything.

Eunji asked him if she could have a battle of water.

Derek who happened to come with them as their guard heard it and had volunteered to get one from the cafeteria.

When he left, Eunji and Nathan cuddled on each other.

Cliché as it sounded but the big screen up top lit up showing the couples intimate moments.

At first, Eunji and Nathan was unaware of what was happening but then they realized that the students were giddy and looking towards their direction and some pointed out on the big screen.

When the couple followed their fingers, they were flustered to see their faces on the screen.

Nathan was about to remove Eunji's eye glasses so she could take a quick nap as he saw her yawning.

The students giggled when they saw the couple's reaction on screen and they witnessed at how Eunji had turned beet red because of embarrassment.

"Oh come on! It's not that we're caught stealing something." Nathan said as he tried to cheer her up.

Nathan even waved his hand in the air as if saying hello to everyone.

But of course, he didn't forget to hide her face as she didn't other males to continue watching her cute reaction.

"It's okay, it's done."

Then the announcer spoke on the microphone for an announcement.

"Friday morning, the champion of this tournament would get a chance to play against Master Bai's team. So you better do your best to get a chance to challenge them. It's a once in a lifetime opportunity!"

Everyone cheered in excitement.

Eunji looked at him and asked about it.

"Well, I took five days off work just to be here so might as well, get the most out of it." He simply explained.

The idea alone came on the last minute when SD He approached him earlier.

They've been doing an inter-high tournament since then and the school's team, having a home court advantage would always win against their opponents.

That's why they decided to not do an interschool competition this time.

In fact, the aces of every department's team were the core members of their school's basketball team.

Eunji frowned when she heard that. Nathan didn't tell her about this.

"Well, it was last minute plan." He shortly explained.

Kim Eunji pouted then said, "You're so unfair! You will be having fun while I'm not."

"Why? Aren't you going to cheer me and my team? Cheering is fun wifey. And I want to hear your best cheer for me." Nathan said feeling wronged.

"What I mean is that, you got the chance to participate in an event while I couldn't."

Now Nathan understood her feelings.

It would be hard to do any sports when you're pregnant. And he thought Eunji understood that part as well.

So Nathan really didn't think about it.

But now…he looked at her as if discovering something that he had just realized now.

His wife had changed…and it's for the better.
