Chapter 561 - Ended Up Happily Ever After (1/2)
Cali and Rui went back to country D and the couple decided to stay at Luo's residence. Rui felt more at ease staying there because Cali would not be left alone if ever he was not around. At Luo's residence, she would be taken care of by Nanny Shine and Grandpa Luo well.
After settling down, Rui went back to work at Yang Global Hospital to assist Xander while Cali became busy with putting up her newly found business. She set up her own bakery and cafe naming it ”Memories Bakery & Cafe” where she made a lot of customized desserts and cakes.
Everyday Rui would drop his wife off at the bakery and pick her up again in the afternoon.
Today, he was having coffee with Xander as they discussed what changes to be made to further improve the hospital facilities...
”I will spend more time and be engaged with the Cooper network for a while since I was just appointed as its new CEO. Besides, this election is total chaos so I have to make sure that Uncle won't be cheated in the Presidency…” Xander muttered.
Keira's father, Uncle Troy, was a candidate for the Presidency and his opponent was apparently somehow who had a lot of tricks up his sleeve to make sure he would win.
He had to use his power over the media to make sure that the election would be fair and unbiased.
”So I will leave everything to you while I will focus on assisting Keira…” Xander added and Rui nodded in understanding.
Xander chuckled remembering something and could not help but comment, ”Do you know that your father is begging me to let you go so that you would stop working here at Yang Group?”
Rui's face crumpled and mumbled, ”Yeah… He keeps bugging me too. It's because his other two sons will soon drive the company towards bankruptcy due to their incompetence…”
”Are you sure you don't want to try working there? Dee's Group is a big company and you have the right over the company…” Xander commented.
”Nah, I will pass. Managing Yang Global is enough for me. I don't need any more fame nor riches… I just want to focus more on Cali and our baby…” Rui said with sparkling eyes as the image of his lovely wife with her growing belly crept into his mind.
Xander laughed and said, ”Wow I'm so proud of you brother. Keep up the good work and make more babies with your wife so that my children will also have a lot more playmates. You see… Yera is pregnant again.”
Rui's eyes widened and he shouted, ”Hey man!! You're so on fire! Congratulations!”
The two then talked more about Xander's endors.e.m.e.nt and a lot of things when Xander noticed Rui looking at the wall clock.
”Geez, I will dismiss you early since your mind and heart is no longer here.. You can go and your wife from her work as you're clearly longing to see her…” Xander teased as he handed the last endors.e.m.e.nt file Rui.
Rui only chuckled. Soon Xander dismissed him and as usual, he excitedly drove to pick-up Cali at her cafe-bakery.
He was greeted by Cali's employees who informed him that Cali was in her private kitchen working on some new recipe. Cali wanted her privacy whenever she baked since she had the habit of listening to musical instrumental music. She did not want to be disturbed by anyone else except for him of course, since he was the only exception, who was allowed to disturb his wife.
He entered Cali's so-called den and smiled seeing her wearing her apron and slowly swaying her h.i.p.s to the soft melody while kneading the bread dough.
He carefully walked towards her and then hugged her from behind surprising her.
Cali stilled for a moment before she smiled feeling her husband's arms and warmth around her and inhaling his scent which she loved.
”I was to pick you up sweetheart but it seems like I arrived too early,” he whispered in her ear. Cali turned around and put her arms on Rui's neck.
She had the sweetest smile on her face, one that Rui would never get tired of staring at.
”You're always early to pick me up sweetheart. Isn't it intentional? Maybe you're missing me so much that you cannot wait anymore?” Cali teased before kissing her husband who had that playful grin.
Their kiss deepened but it was interrupted by the ringing of Rui's phone.
”Answer it first. It seems important,” Cali whispered when the ringing did not stop.
Rui, with a crumpled face, picked up his mobile phone while he was silently cursing the intruder who was none other than Xander Yang.
