The Satan CEO’s Woman: He Unexpectedly Fell In Love With Her - Chapter 302
After making sure that everybody were asleep, including her daughter, Eunji tiptoed her way out of the main building of Master Liu’s house then headed to the garage so she could start looking for answers.
It just so happen that she had bumped with a familiar person when she was about to enter the garage.
“Sneaking out this late while everybody were already asleep?”
“Master Liu.” She greeted the person.
Master Liu had just arrived from his trip which no one knew where he went to for the day.
“Did you just arrived Master?” She inquired and the old man nodded.
“Yes. I thought you won’t be coming back today so I went to visit a place earlier. Had I known, I would have been here to welcome you.” He chuckled.
“No. It’s okay Master. I’m glad that we met here but you see, I have to leave again.”
“Eve. Where are you heading to at eleven in the evening?” He repeated his question while he observed his desciple’s body language.
She seemed to be calm but he knew deep down she was not. She would not probably sneak out of the house this late if she was fine.
“The same as always Master Liu.” She replied in a heartbeat making Master Liu to frown and asked.
“Looking for answer at this hour? Seriously? Why? What did you find out when you were away?” He could not help but ask out of curiosity.
He could hear Eunji’s deep sigh at the same time, she was not even looking at him. At the same time, she was tapping her foot on the ground.
“You’re not even wearing your skin mask as Devie.” He added.
“No need, I’ll be wearing my ghost mask.”
She only looked up at him just to answer his question and then she was back at looking down again.
“Do you want to have a talk before you leave?”
Master Liu was trying his best to make her talk as he could tell from her action that something was really bothering her.
He heaved a sigh of relief when Eunji slowly nodded at him.
“Follow me.”
Meanwhile inside the Luo family mansion, Luo Tian was on his desktop reading some reports about their company when Luo Mian barged inside his home office.
“Brother, I think we have a problem!” The younger said.
“Tell me something that I was not aware of.” He asked.
“The Ling and the Jin family had gone missing!”
Hearing his brother, Luo Tian paused what he was doing and then spared him a glance and seconds later, he continued.
“Is that it?! You’re not even bothered about it?!” Luo Mian questioned him.
“Mind your manners younger brother. I’m still your brother.” He sternly scolded him.
“Panicking over such trivial matter would only be wasting our time and energy. Why don’t you go and take a shower first. The woman perfume you’re wearing is starting to irritate my nose.” He continued making Luo Mian to check himself.
“You’re even wearing a lipstick stain on your collar. How are you going to lure Nathan’s sister to be your woman again if you’re so busy messing around with the others?”
His comment made Luo Mian to be speechless.
“Brother…Fine! I’ll go and change. But I want to know your plan at this point, too. I won’t be sleeping tonight unless you tell me.”
“Go and shower. I’ll be here when you’re done.” Luo Tian calmly said.
Speaking at the woman that Luo Mian wanted to coax, Celine was now on the way to QPRC.
The car was driven by Nathan’s most trusted chauffeur. A black van full of security escorts, who were Nathan’s men, were also tailing them.
As for Celine, she was busy yawning after she had a very long day from work.
“Tomorrow we have to leave early to catch up with the call time.” Sam was reminding her as she scanned through Celine’s schedule.
“Have you even done packing your clothes?” Hearing a silent response from the woman beside her, Sam then took a quick glance to see that she was already sleeping soundly.
“Seriously?” She mumbled and then looked at the driver on the passenger seat and said, “Can you turn the radio on please. She likes to sleep with it.”
“No problem.” The man did what he was told to do.
Sam also adjusted the air conditioning inside the car. She also pulled up the partition to give Celine the privacy and then she pulled out a blanket to cover Celine’s body.
Celine moved because of the movement and Sam whispered gently at her.
“It’s okay. Sleep. I’ll wake you up when we arrive.”
With her calming voice, Celine went back to sleep and Sam continued what she was doing.
But of course, she managed to sneak a kiss on Celine’s forehead.
Celine could feel Sam’s soft lips touching her skin. She should be bothered by it right? But no.
In fact, after they had that conversation, Celine had started to slowly accept Sam’s affection towards her instead of rejecting it.
Only she could tell how long would she going to make Sam wait for her answer. But she knew deep down, it won’t take that long.
Those were her last thoughts as she drifted off to sleep.
She didn’t know how long she was out when she felt Sam’s warm hands touching her shoulders and gently rocking her to wake up.
When she opened her eyes, a familiar beautiful face with a warm smile greeted her eyes making Celine to be speechless. Not only that, the distance between their faces was not helping it either.
She could literally feel Sam’s warm breath fanning her face which made her blush, too. It was already then that she realized she was now lying on Sam’s lap.
‘When did I lay down in this position?’ She asked herself.
Thankfully, the lights inside the car was dim and it helped to not make her hot red cheeks to be obvious.
Celine started to look away to hide it but Sam had already seen it and a soft chuckle left her lips.
To make things less awkward for them both, Sam decided not to tease her and distanced her face away from her and she spoke, “We’re here.”
“Oh! Are we? Sorry. How long have you been trying to wake me up?” She asked as she got up from Sam’s lap and sat properly on her seat.
“Not that long. Around thirty minutes or so.” Sam replied.
“What?!”
“You were in a deep sleep when we arrived that I could not have the heart to wake you up. Script reading must have been very tiring for you so yeah. I decided to let you extend it to thirty minutes more.” Sam tried to explain herself as Celine seemed to be upset at something.
‘Did she not like it when I make her sleep on my lap?’ She thought.
Seeing Sam’s troubled expression, Celine felt bad about her over reaction.
“Thank you. But Sam, you don’t have to do it next time okay? Not when it had caused an inconvenience on your part. You should have been already sleeping with your mouth open on your bed now than be here with me.” She explained.
“Excuse me? I don’t sleep like that.” Sam defended herself. She could not recall herself having that sleeping habit at all.
“Seriously? How would you know when you’re unconscious? I have a recording while you were sleeping like that, you know.” Celine said.
“Excuse me? Miss Celine, I don’t care if a lot of people love you in the whole wide world but you are invading my privacy Miss. I might sue you.”
“Oh?” She challenged.
“Yes!” Sam crossed her arms over her chest as she looked at Celine.
“Well, so be it. I won’t stop filming you then. Better be prepared.” She might have looked serious when she said that but deep down, she was only teasing her.
“What?”
Sam didn’t know what have gotten into Celine all of a sudden.
“Are you drunk?”
“No. I’m just sleep deprived. So we better go out so I could continue my beauty rest, yeah?” She said as she opened the door to go out.
But before she could even step her foot on the concrete floor outside, Sam called her out.
“Celine wait!”
Celine turn around to look at her personal assistant slash manager
“Hmm?”
“You’re not an inconvenience.” She said softly.
As she was afraid that Eunji didn’t hear it, Sam continued to explain herself.
“If what I’m doing now was affecting you in some way, like it bothers you, then I’ll minimize them. I hope you know that you have never been an inconvenience to me. I’m just happy to do them for you. I’m sorry.” Sam didn’t wait for Celine’s reaction as she opened the door and walked out.
Celine thought that Sam had left her behind inside the car and walked ahead of her but she was wrong.
Sam had walked towards her side to open the door wider for her so she could come out safely.
Sam then handed her hand as she continued what she was talking earlier.
“Yuki, I’m sorry but I won’t stop. I won’t stop showing how much I care about you. Yes, I might be younger than you but I’ll prove to you that I’m really serious about this.” She said while awkwardly looking at her hand which was stuck in the cold air waiting for Celine’s hand to grab and take it.
Yes, she was six years her junior. But she didn’t mind to be brave and pursue for her happiness.
But feeling that she still had a long way to go, Sam was about to place her hand down awkwardly but something stopped her from doing so.
To her surprise, Celine didn’t swat her hand away and finally grab it instead.
“Then I’ll take this as your official attempt to court me?” She asked and Sam nodded her head shyly.
“Okay. Then, I’m looking forward to see your most romantic side, Sam.” Celine said as she shook Sam’s hand like they had just sealed a deal.
This made Sam to be stunned.
“And oh, don’t call me Celine when we’re alone. I like it when you call me by my real name.” She said as she let go of her hand and got out of the car unassisted.
Sam who was still left in daze had finally snapped out of it when she saw Celine slowly walking towards the private elevator of the penthouse.
Seeing that Sam was not following behind her, Celine turned around and looked back at her.
“So? Aren’t you coming up with me? I wouldn’t mind letting you be here alone but please! I’m so sleepy. So shall we go?”
“Sorry! Sure let’s go!” Sam apologized as she rushed to reach Celine’s side.
