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

Chapter 37 - 37: Outburst



Kim Eunji tossed and turned as she still could not sleep even though Nathan was already hugging her from the front.

"What's wrong? Can't sleep?" Nathan asked as he was worried that the stitches on her wound might open if she continued to toss and turn.

"I can't. Can I just go home and continue my recovery there?" Kim Eunji asked him in a pleading voice.

"You can't. You're badly hurt. They still had to run some tests on you. And if the results are good, that's the time that they'll give you the clearance to be discharged." He explained to her. "Why? What's wrong?" He asked her as soon as he felt like the woman in his arms suddenly became silent.

"I can't... I can't stay here any longer. I thought I could tolerate staying for another day but I can't." Kim Eunji weakly said.

"I'm sorry baby but you have to stay here for a couple of days."

Though Mike had told him earlier that once Kim Eunji would ask him to bring her back home, he should follow what she said without any second thoughts, he still decided to not do it.

"But... Can you promise me one thing?"

"Sure, what is it? Hmm?"

"Can you promise to not leave me alone here?" She pleaded.

"I promise that I won't. So go to sleep okay?"

"Okay."

However, Nathan had to break that promise as he had to leave first thing in the morning back to Beijing because of an emergency.

When Kim Eunji woke up the next day, he was already not beside him.

"Nathan?" She called him. Sadly, no one answered her back. She was hoping that he had some errands and would be back the sooner but to her dismay, no Nathan showed up. Her breakfast was also placed in the thermal pot which was resting on the table beside her.

One of his men who was standing by the door outside as her security also came in to inform her that Nathan had flew back to Beijing earlier this morning and will be back layer this evening.

"Liar." Kim Eunji mumbled as soon as the guard left her room.

Now that she's alone, her mind suddenly became in chaos. This was what Mike was afraid to witness when he arrived and saw her yesterday.

The medication that she had to ease the pain in her surgery wound had somehow managed to help her calm down yesterday. And Mei's company and Nathan's company made her busy yet relaxed that she almost forgot that she's in the hospital.

The first thing that she wanted to do now was to sneak out of the hospital. But her room was located on the 31st floor of the 32-story building.

And it was pretty gloomy outside too. It looked like it will rain soon.

And besides, her surgery wounds in the head and in the side were still fresh. She had not fully recovered her strength yet, too.

But her mind was already set into getting herself out of the place. She had to do it before the nurse came in for her routine check.

She stood up and went to the couch where a clean set of men's clothes and a men's jacket was placed. Nathan had probably left it earlier because he was in a hurry.

"This won't do." She said as she tried to wear it. Since Nathan was taller than her, his clothes were obviously bigger than her. Besides, his clothes were too formal and eye-catching enough.

She had to think of another plan.

Kim Eunji heard a knock on the door and she was sure it was the nurse.

Kim Eunji decided to lay back to her bed and pretend that she went back to sleep. Though her eyes were closed she used her other senses to observe what the latter was doing.

She thought that the latter would leave after she was done checking on her IV, and vitals but to her dismay, the latter sat down on the chair and was now looking at her.

She knew because she could feel her gaze towards her. However, her gaze had no trace of malicious intent on it. She was just doing her job. And Kim Eunji thought that this nurse was indeed dedicated and passionate about her chosen work.

But with her around, Kim Eunji became more anxious.

Then, an idea popped up on her mind.

Kim Eunji opened her eyes and asked the nurse to come over. The moment she did, Kim Eunji struck the back of her head which made the latter to pass out as she was caught off-guard.

Kim Eunji then changed into the nurse's uniform and made the unconscious nurse to wear her hospital gown.

After changing, Kim Eunji then knocked on the door to let the guard to come. When he did, she repeated what she just did to the poor nurse.

Lucky for her, the other guards were downstairs to watch over Mei and Sana. The latter was rushed inside the ICU last night.

Kim Eunji looked and heaved a sigh as soon as she realized that she could get out of her room with ease.

She then removed the bandage that was wrapped around on her head and changed it into a less obvious dressing. She then wore Nathan's jacket that she had seen earlier and put the hood on.

After she was done, she simply walked out of her room as if nothing happened.

She decided to take the fire exit as it would be risky to take the elevator.

When she was on the lobby of the hospital, Kim Eunji was bumped by a man who was in a hurry. She fell down on the ground but immediately get up as she was afraid that someone might recognize her.

"Gomin (sorry)." The man apologized but Kim Eunji head any attention to him.

Kim Eunji could feel her side bleeding as it was aching. However, she neglected the pain and continued her way out.

Since she had no phone nor money to pay the metro or any cab, all she could do was to walk. She preferred to stay in the streets rather than be stuck in that place.

Noon came but Kim Eunji had not taken any meals yet.

On the other hand, Nathan received the news that Kim Eunji snuck out of the hospital. He immediately paused the meeting and told Marco to prepare his helicopter to the rooftop.

"Mr. Bai, don't you think it's irresponsible for you to leave us here when we're facing a crises." One of the board questioned him.

Nathan however did not pay any attention to him. "Marco and Tang Hao. I'll be expecting your report on my e-mail today."

"Eh? You're entrusting the fate of Bai Corp in the hands of your subordinates?! How incompetent of you!" The leader of the minority stood up and challenged Nathan's capabilities.

"Question my capabilities and you will bid goodbye to your shares here in the company. Don't act as if I didn't know what was going on in the company behind my back. I... KNOW... WHO'S BEHIND THIS...I'M JUST WAITING FOR THAT PERSON TO COME OUT!"

Of course, he addressed his last message to the members of the board.

'She's more important than this damn company.' He continued in his thoughts.

The board had no way to stop him from leaving.

Nathan immediately went upstairs to board in the helicopter.

As soon as he landed, he called Hiro and asked him of what happened.

The young butler almost pissed on his pants because he's so scared of Nathan's aura and demeanor.

Even Mei blamed herself for not checking on Kim Eunji earlier this morning.

It was already passed six in the evening and Kim Eunji was still nowhere to be found.

Nathan had grown extremely anxious and had been pacing back and forth and looking at his phone to check for updates. He was really worried for Kim Eunji. She had not taken any medications yet. And she was in an unknown place. 'What if something happened to her?'

Soon, he received a message from his subordinates telling him that Kim Eunji was in her house.

No one dared to check the place as it was quite far from the hospital.

Nathan immediately rushed to the place and found Kim Eunji preparing for dinner as if nothing happened.

She did noticed his arrival but decided to ignore him instead.

Nathan growled in displeasure.

"Why are you here?" Nathan asked her as he could not take it anymore.

"This is my house, why should I not be here?" She sarcastically replied.

"You should be in the hospital to recuperate not here. Don't you know that what you have done might worsen your injury?"

"This is my body. I can do anything that I want. It's none of your concern."

Nathan pulled his hair out of frustration. He thought that after last night, Kim Eunji's attitude towards him would be better but on the contrary, she was back to how she had treated him.

"If you don't have anything else to say, you may leave." Kim Eunji was not interested to talk to him anymore.

Nathan who had been frustrated immediately rushed behind her and then he held both of her shoulders and turned her around to face him. Without any second thoughts, he claimed her lips with his.

Kim Eunji was stunned. The first thing that she wanted to do now was to free herself from the man. But Nathan had no plans of letting her go. The more she struggled to let go, the more he kissed her hard, the more she was short for air.

Nathan let her go when he saw that Kim Eunji was struggling for air.

"You are my woman…my lover…MINE. Therefore, I have every rights to be worried about you." He then fiercely looked at her as he added.

"Do that one more time and you'll be punished next time. Am I understood?" Nathan asked as he looked at Kim Eunji's swollen lips. However, Kim Eunji was silent and was wearing a blank expression.

This reaction frustrated Nathan even more. She was so hard to read. He didn't know what he should do to be in her good side…to please her.

"You don't know how scared I was when I found out that you left the hospital. I almost went crazy! Been thinking if something bad had happened to you while you were out in the street."

Kim Eunji who had been silent finally spoke. "Well I'm okay, am I not?" Kim Eunji said in a sarcastic note.

"Why? Why do you care? You left me there alone so I decided to leave. You promised! You promised to never leave but you still did. You don't know how that place made me uncomfortable. How I had grown to recent that place! How that place made me lose my mind."

Nathan was taken aback by Kim Eunji's sudden outburst. He didn't know. He had no idea. Now he understood what Mike meant before he left.

Kim Eunji's tears began to pour out from her eyes but she did not looked down to avoid his gaze.

"I'm sorry." Was all he could utter. He could see the pain and fear that's in her eyes. Gone was the strong façade that she had been wearing when facing him. She was in her most vulnerable state now.

"I…" Nathan was about to say something but Kim Eunji gestured for him to stop.

However, Nathan had no other ways to calm the sobbing Kim Eunji than to do this.

For the second time, he claimed her lips but the kiss was not mixed with anger, it was tender and gentler than the former.

It took for Kim Eunji to respond to his kiss and this surprised Nathan.

When Kim Eunji was gasping for air, he released her from his kiss and then kissed her one more time but this time it was more of need.

Nathan then hugged Kim Eunji who was now melting in his arms.

"I'm sorry."

Kim Eunji was silent. "I didn't know. Had I known, I won't leave you there alone."

After a moment of silent, Kim Eunji's eyes widened when she heard him saying something.
