The Satan CEO's Woman: He Unexpectedly Fell in Love with Her

Chapter 175 - 175: Inner Battle



The days passed like a blur but the situation was still the same. It had been a week since that talk with everyone.

They tried their best to make Kim Eunji to turn the tables and come back to them but nothing changed except from the times when she would look at Nathan or nod when being asked by him.

She's also much calmer this time compared to the first day she had woken up.

Sometimes, Nathan would catch her staring in the air and would even cry to herself which was already the normal thing she would often do most of the time.

Also, she would always woke up on her sleep because of nightmares which eventually made her to not have a proper sleep last night. She would end up screaming on top of her lungs and then would look at the skies outside the following morning with her eye bags and dark circles on.

Being the loving and caring husband that he was, Nathan would always make sure that she's comfortable every time.

He thought that him giving up his CEO position at Net International was a blessing in disguise as he had more time and even decided to work from home so he could look after her more.

He would sometimes leave the house to attend a very important meeting with a potential client or an investor or if necessary. But most of the time, he would be having his office work on his office/study at home when his wife's sleeping.

Master Liu was also staying in their residence to help Eunji to help stabilize her heart condition.

If this treatment was successful, there's a chance that she would not be having any heart attack in the future.

Of course, there won't be any heart transplant needed as well.

"Wifey. Dinner in bed!" Nathan said holding a tray of food for her dinner.

Her dinner was a bowl of porridge seasoned with herbs and special spices and meat and a plate of fresh strawberry with condense milk to dip.

Eunji who was laying in bed got up and looked and adjusted herself as she leaned on the headboard of their bed.

Nathan then placed the tray on the small table and brought it on the bed.

"Do you want me to feed you?" Nathan asked her.

So far, Nathan had been helping her in eating her meals.

"No..."

Nathan smiled as he let her hold her spoon and took her first bite of the night.

"Good girl." Nathan praised her after he watched her gulped the porridge which she had just placed in her mouth.

Kim Eunji didn't pay him any attention as she continued eating until she finished the porridge in her bowl.

"Good job! Tomorrow again...okay?" Nathan said as he kissed the top of her forehead.

"Come. Let's brush your teeth and clean up." Nathan said as he slowly helped her to stand up after he kept the dishes away.

Kim Eunji just let him do what he wanted to do with her.

After helping his wife eating and cleaning up, Nathan helped her in changing her into her pajama and helped her in changing the dressing on her wound.

When they were done, he then tucked her to bed so she could rest early.

Nathan kissed her goodnight and watched her as she slowly drifted to sleep.

"Good night my beloved wife." Nathan then kissed her belly and softly spoke as he added, "Good night my babies. Daddy loves you...so much."

Nathan then turned around and left towards the direction of the door.

He then looked back and smiled gently as he saw her steady and calm breathing.

Now that his wife had fallen asleep, it's his time to eat his dinner and do some paperwork.

This had been their routine for the entire week.

He was walking on the corridor when he heard his phone ringing. He looked at the screen and he picked it up when he saw who was calling.

"First brother."

"Nate, how's sister-in-law?" Mo Jing-sheng asked from the other line.

"She's fine. Nothing much had changed. She's still the same." Nathan honestly answered.

"How are you?" Nathan sighed as he heard Mo Jing-sheng's question.

"I don't know. I could not say that I am tired. God knows how much I love and cared for her. I should be strong for the both of us. I should be strong for her. I should not be tired." Nathan expressed as if that was now his mantra.

"I understand Nate. You're just overwhelmed by the situation. I know how strong you are Nate. This is nothing to you." Mo Jing-sheng said as he tried to cheer him.

"I know. I believe she'll be back to me, too. And when the time comes, I'll be the first person she'll see with an open arms and tight hug." Nathan said.

"Let's hope for the best Nate."

Nathan could only sigh.

The two talked for a while and the decided to hang up as Mo Jing-sheng had to buy the food that Kelly wanted to eat for her midnight snacks later.

Nathan ate his dinner alone in their big dinning table. Master Liu had decided to lock up in his quarters after he had finished his session with Eunji later that afternoon.

After he finished his dinner, he went to his study table and stayed there for two hours to continue making reports.

While Nathan was staying in his study, his wife on the other room was having a nightmare.

Eunji was having cold sweats forming on top of her forehead as she dreamed of the same dreams over and over again.

She was clenching her palm so tight that her fingernails had dug on them making them bled in her sleep.

In her dream, the memory of that night and everything that happened kept on replaying on her dreams.

She saw herself bathing in red blood and was acting like a mad woman as she took the lives of her union mates.

She saw how everyone died in her hands. How everyone gasped their last breath as she ripped their throats.

They were pleading and begging her to spare their lives but she ignored their plea and killed them.

She felt like she lost her senses and she could no longer recognize herself anymore. She felt like it was her doing everything but she felt different.

Then she saw the shock faces of her parents when they witnessed her brutal mass killing.

She could hear them calling out her name and asking her to stop but in the end, she dashed towards them and assaulted them.

She saw how her father tried to protect his wife over her very own daughter.

In the end, her father failed miserably and had died after she stabbed him by the dagger that he had given to her during her twelfth birthday.

She watched at how she turned her surrounding into a pool of blood.

She looked like a mess. Everything was a mess.

She then started laughing and crying at the same time.

Her laughter stopped when she saw a very beautiful girl who looked exactly like her.

She wanted to confront her but then she woke up on her sleep.

Kim Eunji got up from her sleep and hugged both of her knees as she rocked herself for comfort.

Inside her consciousness, a lonely Eunji was seen hugging her self just like what she was doing in reality.

'You should stay away from them Eve. Stay away before you lose yourself and kill the people dear to us.' Said the woman who looked exactly like her and was wearing a black shirt with black make-up on and an eye patch.

'No. She would not do that. She's not a capable of doing so.' Another woman who exactly looked like her appeared beside her wearing a white dress.

'I don't want to leave them. I love them. So please let's come back to them.' Appeared the third woman who looked exactly like her. She had this childish personality in her and she's holding a pink stuffed toy and her hair were tied in a twin pig tails on the side.

'You better shut the f*ck up! She's better off alone with us. At least she could not kill us in a way!' The first Eunji said.

'Stop mocking our Eve. She's better than us. Don't listen to this annoying self of yours. Eunji...I know the truth is so cruel but it's not okay if you'll continue doing this to yourself. Go and come back to your family...to our family...to our husband and to the people who cared about us.' The fourth version of herself showed up and gave her an advice. She was wearing a red top and her hair was tied on a neat ponytail.

'Our babies needed their mom to be strong. Know your priorities.' The second Eunji added.

'Know her priorities? Look at how pathetic she looked now. She casted us away from her because we reminded her of the memories she wanted to forget all these years.' The first Eunji refuted.

'Shut the f*ck up! We knew that it's not her who killed them. And news flash, she was unaware that her memories had been manipulated.' The fourth Eunji echoed.

'Shut up!' The second Kim Eunji snapped at them.

Their attention were fully on her except from the Kim Eunji herself as she was still hugging her knees and the third Eunji who was busy playing with her stuffed toy.

'Instead of helping Eve to find her way back, here you are bickering non-stop. We're here to help her and not to make her more depressed. We're all responsible for what had happened. Let's make things clear for her. At the end of the day, we only exist because of her. She created us and now it's time to pay her back!'

'I want Eve to be happy.' The third Eunji spoke as she stopped playing her stuffed toy.

She then stood up and placed the stuff animal on her side and walked towards Kim Eunji.

She then hugged the dazed Eunji and kissed her cheeks.

After she did, she saw herself turning transparent.

'Each one of us hold a fragment of her memories. When she drunk that potion or drug, we separated from her making her to forget everything. I know that's partly part of the reason why we exist. So it's time to return to her. We could only help her this way.' The second Eunji explained.

'We're stronger when we fought as one.' The fourth Eunji agreed.

'Are you hearing yourself, she didn't need us anymore.' The first Eunji said.

'Are you talking about us or yourself alone. I know it's hard for you to accept this. After all, you're the first among us who existed the moment she decided to leave being an assassin. But believe me, she needs you. She needs us.' The fourth Eunji tried to console the first Eunji.

The second Eunji also followed the third Eunji and now her existence started to disappear.

They looked at Eunji one and four. Especially to Eunji one who seemed to have no plans on following them.

Third Eunji had completely vanished as she had completely merged with Eve.

The second Eunji thought that the first Eunji would be so stubborn but moments later, she followed the rest and decided to merge with Eve's body.

While Eunji's inner self was having a heated argument, Nathan frowned when he saw Kim Eunji hugging knees and it seems like she was murmuring something to herself.

Nathan decided to approach and gave her a hug so she won't feel lonely.

"Wifey...it's okay. I love you. I would never leave you." Nathan whispered while comforting her.

Nathan could feel Kim Eunji hugging him back.

The next second, what Eunji did made him the happiest.

"Hubby..."
