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

Had it not for Alora, Eunji would be left blind by what was actually happening outside the control room. She was thankful that they had not found out about her small earpiece which she had tucked almost inside her inner ear.

Su Ying was already out. The person whom she thought was her worst enemy. The root of all the hardships that she had been suffering right now.

However, Francais should not be ignored either. After all, he's a sly man too.

She hoped that Asia would kill her sooner before she did since she asked her to not interrupt on her plan for the two man.

Her mind was both on Jin Jie and Nathan. Nathan left without saying goodbye to her.

And now that Jin Jie's disappearance was being pinned on him, Eunji was really worried.

Somehow, it drawn onto her that the actions she had done had consequences and if Nathan would suffer from that consequence because of her, then she'd definitely not going to forgive herself.

It had been the second day that they're inside the control room. None of them left the room and they had received food packs from the outside.

She had not showered yet.

Because of Toby's disappearance, the other eight had decided to not let anyone out unless he had appeared or worse, unless his body was found.

They had focused their attention on the games flashing on the screen.

Day five of the games and the battles had become pretty intense. The next game was Frederick against someone from his group.

After rejecting Francais' help, all of his battles were tough and he was always beaten right after every round. What kept him going were the packets of pain medicines that Asia would secretly give him right after.

Without it, he was sure that he'd collapsed and won't be able to step on the ring again.

Somehow, Frederick felt proud after realizing that he was strong enough to defeat four mercenaries on top of the ring.

Eunji with Alora's help had interrupted in the selection of his enemies in every match. She made sure that his enemies were stronger than the other every time.

Deep inside, she had found the satisfaction of seeing him in pain. This was his way of punishing him for what he had done to Anastasia.

Again, Ana asked her to not kill him. But she didn't say that she could not mess with him during the entire duration of the games, right?

Should he be able to defeat this opponent, there'll be two man left standing on their group aside from his opponent now.

The rest of the games had been duels and fights since after the first game, not many decided to participate on the succeeding games. After all, they could still rank up without risking their lives.

The first game surely caused trauma to the participants. Eunji was not against it, too.

However, if someone would die during the battle, she could no longer save them aside from those who suffered serious injuries.

After all, they died on someone else's hand not on her tricks and schemes which she had everything under control as what could be seen back then inside the morgue.

She's not a saint who could revive someone who suffered from real and not fake death.

And that's the downside of it for her.

Meanwhile, after receiving the call from Su Ying, Francais contacted Toby over the phone. However, much to his surprise, Toby was not answering his call.

Getting out of the stadium, he started looking for President Williams to ask him if Toby had taken a mission outside.

It was impossible though since all of the mercenaries should be here attending this event because it's their event after all.

They were only the supposed guest here.

He found him inside his designated office in this place and so he immediately asked him.

Much to his surprise, the latter replied to him, "Toby has been out for days. No one could contact him over the phone. Even his sister has no idea where he was."

"Really?" He could not hold back his surprise.

"Yes. If you have any idea of where he might be, do let me know." President Williams even asked him the favor in response.

"I wouldn't be here if I know where he is." He answered sarcastically as he felt annoyed by it.

"I have heard that you have a guest here? Where is he now?"

News sure had wings and it did travel faster than expected.

"How did you know?"

"So it's indeed true." Francais was only bluffing though. However, he didn't expect for it to be actually true.

"It's none of your business." He rejected him immediately.

"How could it be not none of my business when everything could jeopardize my soon position in the underworld?!"

"Everything in this world is not all about you." President Williams simply told him of that reality.

'Since when did he become like this?' Francais wondered while looking at President Williams.

"Now, if you have anything else to say, please leave. I'm very busy."

This was the first time since the welcoming dinner that they got the chance to talk again. Yet he was already chasing him outside.

Slamming the table in front of President Williams with force, Francais' veins on his temple looked like they're popping out of his skin, "How dare you show your attitude on me?! Are you trying to chase me out?"

"Why shouldn't I? This is my territory. I'll always have the final say." President Williams showed his authority to him.

After all, he got annoyed with Francais. And after he found out that Su Ying was finally free, he didn't have to rely on Francais on everything. Not knowing that Francais was also only relying on Su Ying's wide network of influence, too.

"Who do you think you are?!"

Before he could even hear his answer, three mercenary guards came inside the room to bring him outside.

Just then, his phone rang and he answered it immediately.

"Hello?"

"It's me. Hades."

"Oh Hades! Hi! You decided to call all of a sudden. Did something happen?"

"Does your people still have Nathaniel Bai?" Hades inquired without beating around the bush.

"I don't know. Still haven't seen him around."

President Williams could not give him the answer. After all, when Toby disappeared, Nathan disappeared, too.

In fact, he had sent out people to look for them both.

Nathan was a big threat for everyone.

His silence made Hades thought that Nathan had already left the place and possibly Italy.

"Sir Su Ying wanted his head. And so, should you want to be recognized by him, I advice you to bring his head to Sir Su."

Hades knew that President Williams would never want to miss this opportunity. And he was not mistaken as the latter seemed to be very glad to hear the news based on how his voice changed on the other line.

"Let me warn you though. Sir Su had asked this to each one of his loyal followers. The person who could deliver his head first will win." Hades gave his warning.

"Don't worry. I'll definitely win Sir Su's favor!" He was really confident that he could.

"Don't make me to lose face in front of Sir Su, President Williams. You know what someone like me, a fugitive from International Prison is capable of doing."

President Williams didn't expect for Hades to put it that way. He knew this guy was dangerous. However, he didn't want to believe that they're at par when it came to their capabilities.

He only happened to meet the man first. However, he was sure that their positions would have been changed otherwise.

"Don't worry. I will definitely perform well."

Since there were not much to talk about, they both ended the call.

Back on J's side. He had finally regained consciousness after the days that he was out.

He groaned as he suddenly felt a pang on his head.

"Don't move!" He heard a female voice speaking beside him.

Just then, he watched the young woman running outside and when she returned, he was being accompanied by a man in white coat and he also saw his name plate and found out that he was a doctor.

Jin Jie watched as this doctor checked on him.

"Quite a long sleep, yeah?" James tried to make light jokes with his patient.

Jin Jie touched the space in between his brows as he sharply looked at the man and asked him groggily, "Where am I?"

James knew this would happen and so he showed his friendly smile and with great focus on what he was doing, he answered Jin Jie's question in a reassuring manner.

"Don't worry, you're safe here with us. We won't hurt you, too. No! Scratch that! I won't hurt you. After all, I still wnat to have my head attached on neck and entire lower body."

The way how he described Amelia, she seemed to be a violent person who would kill without any hesitation.

"Hey! Stop destroying my image!" Amelia hit the back of his neck with her arm causing him to hiss in pain.

"Stop it! It hurts you know!" He hissed at her.

Jin Jie only looked at them with curiousness. Based on their interaction, they seemed to be good people and pretty close, too.

"Excuse me. But may I know who you are and why you both are doing this?"

Jin Jie swore that he saw a shift on their expression, especially on the young woman -- Amelia.

The room became quiet and they waited for James to finish checking him.

"So, I think this is my cue to leave now? You both need to talk." James wore a serious face while looking at them both.

Something was telling Jin Jie that whatever was going on, it concerned him the most.

Jin Jie looked at the young woman standing beside his bed. He waited for her to speak first. After all, ladies first, right?

"Hi."

However, the frown on his forehead didn't disappear.

"Ahm. Pardon if I may sound rude, but do I know you?"

He heard her heave a deep sigh as if she was carrying a heavy load behind her back.

"You don't know me. But I do know you." She then extended her hand to grab and hold his.

"May I?"

Receiving no answer from him, Amelia mustered the courage to do what she wanted.

She held his hand gently and squeezed them.

"You're not my girlfriend, are you?" His question caused her to giggle.

"No, brother. I am not your sister."
