The Satan CEO’s Woman: He Unexpectedly Fell In Love With Her - Chapter 299
When Eunji arrived in Seoul, she immediately entered the car waiting for them and then head to Master Liu’s house.
It was already five in the afternoon when they arrived and it was traffic.
They left Beijing late because she had other things to do and gladly Nathan was with her that time and even sent her to the airport.
As promised, while she was on the way to Master Liu’s house, she messaged Nathan and also had a video call with the kids. As expected, they were upset that they woke up without her in the house.
“Sweethearts, Mom had other things to settle here before you can come.” She tried to explain.
“Is it very important than us Mommy?” Li Wei hurt voice echoed though his face was not shown on the screen as Evelien was holding his father’s phone.
His hurt question made Eunji to be sad and wanted to cry. And she was now having a head ache as she didn’t know how to answer him.
Perks of having smart kids, right?
But still, things in the adult world would never be as simple for the kids to understand. Adults tend to complicate things while we were in pursue of satisfisfaction and happiness.
While children had a very simple view of satisfaction and happiness. They smiled on the simple things that we do for them. It’s not about the material things but the care and affection.
And we tend to forget and not appreciate those little things that made us happy back then as we aged. We tend to crave for more just to satisfied our needs and reach the goals we set for ourselves.
It’s okay to have a dream. To have an ambition. But too much of everything would never be good. We have to sacrifice of something just to reach our goal.
And in Eunji’s case, she had to sacrifice her precious time with her family in pursue of justice she wanted to achieve.
Because of she stopped what she was doing, their life would never be peaceful as they would always be running away from danger.
And she hoped that the boys could understand that.
Yes, her reason might be selfish because she wanted this alone time for herself.
But she had to do it alone this time.
And he didn’t know how to explain this to them without hurting their feelings.
But too bad. Her precious son was already upset and sad with it.
Angelina was sitting with her in the back seat of their car while Lee Yunha and Baek Dae-Jung was driving the car respectively.
They too felt bad upon hearing the child’s question. The sadness in his voice alone made them pity the child since the two could only understand Mandarin except for Angelina since she was a polyglot.
Of course his question hit her hard because she felt that she had failed to protect them from emotional pain of being separated from their mother.
“No, baby. Of course you, my children are more important than what I’m doing.” She tried to explain making sure that her voice was as calm as ever even though she knew her voice might crack.
“There are people who are also looking forward to meet you here and I’m sure they wanted to welcome you warmly when you arrive that’s why I have to help them with that. I want things to be okay when you all moved and stay here in my place.” She added.
“Midori, stop making mom to be upset, okay? At least we’re going to celebrate our birthday there with Mommy.” Li Jun said.
“Your Mom have meetings to attend too. Just like Daddy, your mom is a businesswoman so she’s pretty busy.” Nathan butted in the conversation.
‘Okay. That’s quite acceptable.’ Eunji thought.
“And I’m sure she’s preparing for a surprise birthday party with you guys and to not spoil it, she wanted us to go there a day before your birthday.” Nathan added.
“Your dad’s right son.” She smiled as she agreed with Nathan.
“It’s really not necessary Mom. Dad.” Li Jun told her.
Li Jun and Li Wei had never been in a big party before since Nathan had not yet announced them in public for their privacy and safety.
Whenever there’s a celebration, they would be catered in a separate room with Mo Yichen (Mo Jing-sheng and Kelly’s son) and Victoria (Alice and Iris’s daughter).
Compared to Mo Yichen and Vicky, only close people knew the Bai children’s existence.
So they thought that a simple gathering would be fine as long as they got to celebrate it with special people.
“No son! I have already missed your first birthday. I want this to be special for our family.” She said.
Eunji’s plan was not far from that though. In fact, she wanted to celebrate it with special people. She wanted to go somewhere where people won’t recognize them and they could move freely with no pretense.
After coaxing her upset sons, Eunji then asked them to give the phone to their father.
Though this idea was last minute, she knew with Nathan’s help, this could still be possible though.
“Hi.” Nathan waved on the screen.
“Hello.”
“Finally it’s my turn.” Nathan said with a grin.
“Silly.” She bashed.
“Are you okay?” He asked referring to what happened earlier.
“Yeah. I’m good.” She said trying to avoid the topic.
“What are you thinking?” He asked as she seemed to be in deep thoughts on the screen.
“Hubby…how about we celebrate their birthday with the people we met in the island?” She proposed.
“You mean in that island where we had our honeymoon?” He asked.
“Yeah.” She faintly answered.
“But…isn’t it very dangerous? I think they knew that location too since it’s my property.” He pointed out.
“Hmmm. Not if you’d sell it to someone else.” She grinned.
“To whom?” He asked.
“The name’s Sophia. Don’t worry, she’s a sweetheart and can be trusted. The problem’s she’s still a minor. Her mother’s my close friend here and could be trusted by us, too. Don’t worry, they won’t betray me.” She said trying to stop the laugh from escaping her lips.
“Okay?” Nathan was unsure with this plan.
As much as possible, he didn’t want to lose that particular property as that place was very meaningful for him. For them both actually.
Eunji knew that though that’s why she wanted to make him agree though the way she low-key introduced their daughter’s name to him was very silly.
“Hmmm…how about I’ll let her mother to sign an agreement that she would act as a dummy buyer and the truth was that you still own it? Just trust me on this okay? I’ll make sure that this would work out.” She tried to persuade him.
“Okay, I’ll trust you in this.” He said.
“I may have a little request though. Can I bring her and other people there, too? If that’s okay?” She said.
“Hmmm. Okay. I trust you in this. Just tell me what I can do to help.” He sighed as he knew he could not say no to his wife.
“That’s great!” She said.
“En. Take care there okay? Call me after you had the talk with your mother.” He reminded.
“Yeah. I will. I already miss you, hubby.” She admitted softly.
“Says the one who decided to leave me alone.” He teased.
“Yaah! You’re making me feel bad!” She said with a pout.
“Stop pouting.” He said.
“And why should I listen to you?” She asked with her brows raised.
“I will make those cheeks to be beet red when I see you again.” He said with an underlying meaning that made her blush and three others in the car to blush, too.
“Shut up!”
Nathan inwardly smirked as he knew that his wife got the meaning of it but he didn’t care though.
His cute face made him hot.
“What? What did I do? You and your green mind.” He asked her innocently but deep down he was grinning.
Eunji had remained silent as she was so embarrassed to answer him. Even the three people with her had the same feeling, too.
“Baka (Idiot)!” She spat.
“–__–”
But then a soft giggle echoed through the speaker with Nathan giggling.
“If you won’t stop making fun of me I’ll end this call.” She threatened.
“Hold up! Fine! I will stop.” Nathan raised his hand in surrender.
“Baka!” She repeated making Nathan to smile.
“Yeah. But I’m the luckiest idiot who is head over heels in love to the one and only Mrs. Eunji Bai in the world.” He said.
That was smooth.
Satan the sweet talker was back!
“Ahem! Chairman, we are already near.” Angelina butted in as she knew that Eunji had to wear her disguise when she went out of the car.
She knew she had to interrupt or these deprived love birds would surely go on and on.
“Hubby, I have to end this now.” She said even though they were actually far from their destination.
“Okay. Wait!” He said.
He then called the kids so they could bid goodbye to her.
“Kids! Mommy will go now! Say goodbye to mommy!” He called out and the kids rushed beside him.
“Bye Mommy!” The children said in unison.
“Bye babies! Mommy loves you so much. Be obedient to your dad and grandmas, okay?” She reminded them.
“Yes, Mommy. We will!” They replied in unison.
Then the screen was again focused to Nathan.
“I love you, Wifey. And take care…always.”
“I love you too, Hubby. Take care of yourself, too. Don’t worry. I’ll call you after I have the talk with Eomma.” She reassured.
“That would be great.” He said with a smile and he kissed the screen hoping that his kiss would reach her.
Eunji could feel a lump on her throat as she watched his sad face. She knew he really wanted to be beside her but because of the kids, he had to be left behind.
She was really lucky that she was blessed with the most understanding and supportive husband in the world.
And besides, she already missed them so much.
She then waved her hand in response and she made a smile to make him know that she’s okay. To not make him worry about her.
She also responded her kiss with a finger heart and a flying kiss.
When the screen had finally turned black, Eunji could no longer hold back the tears from escaping her tear ducts and she diligently wiped them away.
“Are you okay, Devie?” Angelina asked her at the same time giving her the tissue.
“Yeah. I’m fine. Thanks.” She said with a sniff.
“Give me my bag please.” She asked Angelina who immediately handed her pouch with her.
After wearing her mask, she then closed her eyes as she thought of what had happened today before she left Beijing.
Before she left, she had tortured and killed a few people back in Beijing.
‘How many lives should I take before my family could have a peaceful life?’ She thought.
Her day had started brutal and she hoped that it would actually end with a good one.
