The Satan CEO’s Woman: He Unexpectedly Fell In Love With Her - Chapter 318
Upon hearing what Nathan had said, Eunji held onto the counter while contemplating what to say.
“Will you come?” She finally asked.
“I don’t want to. But a part of me says that I should. I only two more hours to decide as I should be there by twelve midnight sharp.” He said.
“Then go.” She weakly said.
Eunji already had a clue who Silver was.
No.
More like she knew who Silver was.
And Eunji knew that she won’t be able to stop this from happening.
The two were bound to meet.
“Just bring Derek or anyone you could trust. Just in case something will happen.” She added.
Nathan made a soft hum in agreement and said, “Well, that’s my plan.”
“Anyways, how are you?” Nathan asked as he tried to change the topic.
“I’m good. The kids are all asleep. I left to get a cup of hot chocolate. I can’t barely sleep without you beside me.” She honestly said.
“Really?”
“Yes. Especially that you’re in a tight position now. I couldn’t help not to worry.”
Hearing his wife worrying about him, Nathan really felt bad for her. “I’m sorry. I promise to end this quicker so we could be together, okay?”
“You better be. You still have a birthday to celebrate this Friday. This will be their first birthday that we are complete as a family.” She reminded.
“Yeah. Of course I will be there. I won’t miss it for the world. I plan to leave tomorrow so I could be there on time. I have sacrificed a lot of bonding time between the boys and I so I want to compensate for the time we’ve lost by not missing their birthday.”
Eunji smiled sweetly as she heard how sweet of a father Nathan really was.
Just like her, Nathan also wanted to be a part of their children’s life as they grew up despite his very busy schedule as a Chairman of two big companies.
“That’s good. We will be leaving tomorrow, too. Just so we can all cope up with the travel fatigue in going there.” She shared.
“That’s awesome! Around what time? Maybe we can meet at the airport and we can go there together. Yuki and Sam will be coming with me.” It was evident that Nathan was also excited with this mini-vacation that they would be having as a family.
“We’ll be leaving by eight in the morning so that our private plane will land in Manila by ** hours.”
“Good! I’ll try to catch up.”
“Just take your time, okay? We will wait for you. Don’t worry. We won’t start the party unless you’ll come.” She gently reminded.
Eunji could hear Nathan’s chuckle from the other line.
“Sleep early tonight. I want you to get enough sleep. I know you still have the jetlag in your system.”
“Oh my! Stop that. You are making me to miss you more, Hubby. Do you know that?” She said.
“Of course! That has always been my plan. I want you to miss me more. I want you to remember me in every simple gestures that you do. I should be there. Just like how I only think of you all the time.”
Nathan was back on his smooth moves that would never grow old for Eunji.
“Well, guess what? You have already achieved it a long time ago up until now. Even now that we have growing kids together, you never fail to make my heart skip a beat by your smooth words. Satan the Sweet Talker.” She said.
“Well, I’m glad that my goddess liked it.” Nathan said with a smile.
“I didn’t only like it. I love it!”
“And I love you, too.” Nathan responded.
“Smooth.”
“Only for you.”
The couple just laugh after that quick exchange of silliness and sweetness.
“Go to sleep after drinking your chocolate okay? No more phone or computer after.” Nathan seriously said.
“You sounded like a dad trying to remind her stubborn daughter.” She argued.
“Well of course, I am your ‘daddy’in bed. Remember?” He shamelessly reminded her making Eunji’s face and ears to turn red.
“Oh my god! Hubby!” Eunji bashed but Nathan only giggled in return.
“We better end this call now before the conversation goes in a different direction.” She said still with her face in beet red.
“Sorry about that.” Nathan did apologize.
“En. Be careful in going there, okay? I love you Nate. Always will and always will be.” She emotionally said.
“I love you, too. And I will always be careful not only for my sake but for our family so I hope, you too.” He warmly replied.
“En! That is always my priority.”
“Good. Then goodnight?” Nathan didn’t want to end the call but he knew that his wife needed to rest very soon.
“Goodnight!”
The couple exchanged their other rounds of ‘I love you’s’ before they decided to end the call.
Eunji decided to listen to Nathan as she was very tired.
She slowly opened the door to make sure that she won’t disturb her children’s sleeping.
Before she settled down beside Sophie, she kissed her children one by one on the forehead for one more time and uttered, “Goodnight my angels. My world. My everything.”
Meanwhile, on Nathan’s end after the call ended, he went inside his resting lounge so he could change into a more comfortable outfit other than his suits.
He decided to wear a black turtle neck top over his black trench coat.
He picked his a pair of black jeans and wore them.
He also kept his guns perfectly tuck on the side before he took a good look at himself one more time in the mirror.
Nathan then left his office with Derek following beside him.
A few more of his trusted men were already waiting on the parking lot when they got down.
Nathan left the building boarding his black Bentley car.
Nathan didn’t know why but Silver wanted them to meet at a tea house at twelve midnight.
What does this person even wanted from him?
It was exactly eleven-ffty five when he arrived at the said tea house.
As soon as he stepped his foot inside the tea house, he saw the manager of the tea house waiting for him at the entrance.
The manager didn’t greet him but instead he turned around to lead Nathan inside.
His men was about to follow Nathan but the manager sternly warned that only Nathan should get inside and the rest should remain waiting outside.
Derek wanted to protest but he had no other choice but to obey as Nathan waived his hand and asked them to stay behind.
“It’s fine. Stay here.” He added.
Nathan followed the manager and he was lead in front of one of the private booth inside the tea house.
The manager opened the door and beckoned Nathan to come in.
Nathan got inside and the first thing he saw was a woman with her back facing him as she looked up at the night sky above.
Upon seeing her, Nathan was a hundred percent sure that he knew who this person was.
This woman and his wife really resembled a lot. And there’s no denying that.
Recognizing that he had already arrived, the woman turned around and greeted Nathan with a smile.
“I’m expecting to meet Silver here today but I didn’t expect to meet you here, Eve. No, you’re not actually Eve but Anastasia. My wife’s sister.” Nathan straightforwardly said.
However, instead of being angry or upset because of the bitterness that Nathan was showing towards her, Anastasia showed a sweet smile in response before she spoke.
“I’m sorry to disappoint you but you are already speaking to Silver.”
After she introduced herself to Nathan, Ana dragged the chair and sat down.
“Tea?” She calmly offered without looking at him.
However, Nathan was silent.
“We won’t start this conversation unless you’ll at least have a cup of my tea.” She said.
“No thanks.” He flatly responded.
“Then we won’t be talking. I don’t mind stalling time. I have the free time in the world to do that.” She playfully said.
“What the h*ll do you want?!” Nathan was pissed.
“Relax. You really have not changed, do you? All these years, you’re still the same. I never meant to meet you in this circumstances, Nathan. If only the world is perfect, I would meet you in a more pleasant situation.”
Nathan slammed the table and grabbed Ana’s shoulder with no gentleness in his eyes.
But instead of being terrified, Ana even smirked at him.
“So this is where we end up now?” Ana challenged him.
“We have ended a long time ago, Ana!” Nathan said.
Ana’s face turned sad when she heard Nathan’s harshness in every word he uttered in front of her face.
“I was hoping to have a continuation of our unfinished love that’s why I invite you here. However, seems like you have long forgotten me after you met Eve.”
“Don’t be delusional!”
“Wow! That hurts hearing that from someone who had promised eternal love to me in the past.” She was not faking it. She was actually hurt deep down.
“Is it? Do you even deserve it?” Nathan’s words were full of venom for Ana.
Ana held Nathan’s hand as she slowly forced it to free her shoulder.
“Shouldn’t I be the one whose more entitled to ask you that question, Nathan?”
“What do you want?!” Nathan impatiently asked.
“What I want is simple. Leave Eve.” Ana said making Nathan to let go of her.
“And why should I do that?”
“Because I have something that can destroy everything that you have.” She paused as she took out her phone with a ‘send’ button displayed on the screen.
“See this? In just one click, the fame, wealth, good reputation, and career, all of them will disappear.” She said.
“Do you think I care about those stuff? Make them disappear all you want but I’ll never leave my wife!” Nathan refuted.
“Really? How touching. However, you have no rights to be with her! Especially when you’re one of the enemies!”
Nathan was stunned as he heard that. But then he scoffed in disbelief and asked, “Why are you acting like an overprotective sister now when the last time you’ve met, you said she was not your sister?”
“Enemies? Are you even listening to yourself? Why should I hurt my own wife! I love her so much! Damn it!” He added.
“Why? Aren’t you one of them? Those who are after the family that Eve and I once shared. Are you going to deny that you were ordered to kill me?” She asked making Nathan to be speechless in disbelief.
“What proof can you show that you won’t do it again to Eve? We may not be actual sisters but that doesn’t mean I would just let someone to hurt her even if it’s against myself.” She continued.
“F*cking H*ll! I never wanted to kill you!” Nathan’s emotions was all over the place.
“And if I really wanted to, I should have ended you the moment I recovered my wounds and didn’t wait for any feelings to develop between us!” He added making Ana to be speechless.
“As for Eunji, she’s my wife and my life. Without her, I’m worse than dead.”
“How about you? Why didn’t you kill me? After knowing my secret identity, why didn’t you kill me? You’re contracted to kill the foster son of the Underworld King, right?” Nathan asked.
