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

Chapter 216 - 215: Upcoming Danger

Celine was reading the contract that the Universal Entertainment had given her last week.

They were now on Nathan's suite in QPRC. Nathan let her to stay there since he no longer stayed on this place ever since he became a married man.

"Celine, are you really sure of signing into this company instead to your brother's?" Sam, her manager asked her for a million of times already.

Sam had not accompanied Celine when she arrived in China since she still had to arrange the cancellation of Celine's contract renewal from her previous company in the US.

Sam's a talent scout back then and was promoted to being Celine's manager. They'd been in this relationship for ten years now. So she knew Celine so well.

"Yes." Celine shortly answered as she flipped through the pages again. Making sure that all of her terms were being considered by the company.

Seeing that Celine was so serious, Sam had no other choice but to stop persuading her.

"Then your contract signing will be on Monday, nine in the morning and a press conference will be at eleven. I'm sure a lot of people from the press will ask why you left your former company and decided to stay here." Sam reminded her.

"I know that already. You don't have to remind me or else you'll be like a broken disk. Samantha, I'll be fine. We'll be fine." Celine reassured her manager.

"Anyways, tonight's Christmas Eve, any plans?" Sam asked her.

"Probably visiting some bars to have a shot." Celine said calmly.

"Don't tell me you're going to drown yourself with alcohol again?" Sam asked in disbelief

Celine was silent.

"Drop that habit of your okay? Go to your brother's house and celebrate it with his family and friends.

"Nah! I don't want to. I'm not in the mood to see my biological mother. She's only going to bug me." Celine admitted.

"Okay! Fine! I give up!" She said while dramatically throwing her hands up in the air and slumped her but on the opposite couch. "But I'm not going to let you go alone. Geez! You're still a celebrity. You better take good care of your image, okay? This is not America, Celine."

"Yeah-yeah. You better shut up or I won't let you to come with me later." Celine sound annoyed.

"Don't tell me you're still not over him that's why you followed him here?" Sam asked Celine on a serious note.

"Of course not! Him cheating on me had nothing to do with me being alcoholic." Celine said.

Celine had secretly dated a non-showbiz boyfriend in the past and he broke her heart when he dated someone else. But she was long over him. It's been two years since it happened.

Before they could continue their conversation, Celine's phone rang showing Nathan's phone number on the screen.

"Nathan-niichan?"

"Come to the house tonight for dinner." Nathan commanded.

"Is she going to be there?" she asked.

"En. Grandma, too. Mom had been wanting to talk to you ever since she saw you in our birthday celebration but you avoided her that night. She's deeply hurt by your actions Yuki."

"Niichaaan! I won't be there. You know that I don't want to see her!" Celine complained.

"Enough Yuki! She's still our mother even if you hate her for what she did to us. She regretted it. You know that! So stop being stubborn and listen to me. Don't break our mother's heart anymore. She had gone through a lot of hardships in life. So please Yuki!" Nathan pleaded on the other line.

Celine didn't answer and ended the call instead.

"Tsk." Yuki clicked her tongue. Now, she's not in the mood.

"Are you okay?" Sam asked her as she knew the topic of being her mother would always be her sore spot for her.

"Okay. You're definitely not okay. Do you want me to leave?" Sam asked.

Celine thought that she had already forgiven her mother but she was still hurt deep inside. Not yet.

Celine sighed after she heard the closing of the door.

She sighed and looked up in the cloudy sky.

Iris and Alice was busy preparing for their gift for Eunji and Nathan.

Eunji had invited them to spend Christmas with them in the mansion.

"Do I look pretty babe?" Alice asked Iris as she was choosing her outfit.

Iris who had just gotten inside their room smiled and approached her girlfriend and hugged her from behind.

"You're always pretty my Alice." She said huskily in her ear while rubbing her swollen stomach.

"I look big!" She's six months pregnant now.

"Still, you're beautiful babe. My heart had been captivated by you since day one." Iris sincerely said.

"Are you sure we will go? Magnus might be there." Alice expressed her worries.

"Yes, we will be there. He's Mis- I mean Eunji's friend. So, he'll definitely be there." Iris told her.

"Yeah. You got the point. It's just that, it's going to be awkward. Like, I have been avoiding him for the past two months now. Like he should stop right?" Alice then reached out on Iris' ears and gave it a gentle squeeze.

"Yeah but babe, he's still the father. And we had agreed that he'll have visitation rights, right?" Iris told her.

"But our baby's not even born yet. I wanted to have these moments with her… with just the two of us before we're going to share her to others." Call her selfish but just how she felt at the moment. She's the one carrying the baby, not him so she should have the final say over the matter.

"Okay. I'll try to talk to the guy if ever he'll bug you again with this." Iris said as she turned her girlfriend around.

"After I give birth to Victoria, let's get married?" Alice suddenly said making Iris to be speechless.

"Alice, I...please stop joking." Iris told her.

"No. I am not joking Iris." Alice seriously told her. Seeing the doubt in her lover's eyes, Alice let go of Iris and then walked towards her side of their bed.

Alice then open the drawer of her bedside table and took a velvet box from it.

She then opened it and took a diamond engagement ring.

Seeing the ring, Iris' eyes widened in shock.

"I know, it's rushed. But I love you Iris. You and Victoria's my life now and if I'll lose either of you, I'll be dead. So please, marry me?" Alice was about to kneel down and made that pose but Iris pulled her up to stop her.

Alice looked at Iris' eyes and she thought that Iris was not ready. That she didn't feel the same way as her. And this made her to be sad. Good thing she was not making this proposal in front of their friends or else she's just going to embarrass herself after Iris rejected her.

Iris saw that sadness in Alice's eyes therefore, she immediately hand in her hand.

Alice had no idea what Iris was implying until she spoke, "Are you not going let me wear that?" Iris smiled at her.

Alice then looked up at her and her eyes sparkled with tears of joy.

She immediately wore it to Iris' left ring finger and Iris immediately gave her fiancé the sweetest passionate kiss they have ever shared.

"I love you Alice, so of course, I'll marry you."

"I love you, too Iris. And thank you for accepting my proposal." Alice tearfully said.

"Geez! I haven't fulfilled my promise of talking to your dad on his grave. I should be the one proposing to you and not the other way around." Iris complained while wiping away both of their tears.

"Nah! You're just so good that I could not wait to have you and spend the rest of my life with you Iris." Alice sincerely said.

"Me, too Alice." Iris huskily said as she looked at her in the eye.

"Wait, did you just name her?" Iris could not help but ask her in surprise.

Alice guiltily nodded her head.

"Victoria?" she asked again.

"You don't like it?" Alice nervously asked.

"Of course I like it. That's such a sweet name for our baby!"

"I know right? I named her after my late grandma." Alice said as she smiled proudly.

"Oh babe! That's just so lovely!" Iris hugged Alice and placed her hand on her swollen stomach.

The two then looked at each other in the eyes and stayed there contemplating on what they would do next.

"Can I?" Iris asked and Alice didn't hesitate to agree to her request.

Though they had been dating, nothing had really happened to them yet. They would make out but never had done the second base.

Iris respected Alice so much. That's how much she loved her.

Alice knew how many times Iris would have a cold shower after their steamy make out session.

"Are we not going to be late for tonight's dinner?" Alice asked as she suddenly recalled what they were doing before this sudden proposal happened.

"Oh yeah. Let's get going then. Don't worry, we have the entire night later." Iris said as she tapped Alice's face.

"Can I just have a kiss then?" She added.

"Gladly!"

While the newly engaged couple were having an intimate moment, Kelly and Mo Jing-sheng were still cuddling in bed. The couple had just had an hour of intimate work out together.

"Mr. Mo, the atmosphere is just so good to do intimate things with you again." Kelly teased her man.

"Mrs. Mo, if you won't stop teasing me, I'll call Nate and tell him that we won't make it to their dinner." Mo Jing-sheng warned making Kelly to laugh.

Kelly and Mo Jing-sheng had gotten the clearance from their doctor that it's okay to have intimate work outs again.

Being pregnant made Kelly unusually horny so Master Mo had no other choice but to please her.

"Hahhahaha! Then, let's not go. Eunji won't mind if we miss it, I guess." Kelly humored and Mo Jing-sheng poked her forehead making Kelly to pout.

"Stop playing around. This is the first Christmas that we'll be spending together. And Nathan had always decline our invitations over the past years. And I guess Sister-in-law is too. So I guess, it would be a shame if we'll not go."

Finally, Mo Jing-sheng had managed to convince his wife to listen to him and stop being so naughty.

While everyone was busy, in the Luo family mansion, a man with paled face knocked on the door as he asked permission to get inside.

"Come in!" A faint voice could be heard inside.

"Boss!" The man immediately came forward and kneel on the ground.

"Is the woman dead?" Second Master Luo asked his subordinate while sipping on his scotch.

"Bo-ss!" The man's voice was shaking in fear.

"We receive a report from the site that the warehouse had been burned down to ashes." He somehow managed to say the bad news to his boss.

Second Master Luo was so angry that he immediately throw the glass right at his subordinate's face.

"You useless sh*t! What do you mean by burned down to ashes? Who dared to do that to me?!" He angrily asked.

"We...we don't know boss. The police said the cause of fire was electric short-circuit." He answered.

"Short-circuit your sh*t! Where are those useless bastards! Bring them all to me!" He instructed in anger.

Seeing that the subordinate was silent, his anger rose even more.

"Boss, they're gone."

"What?!"

"When I let our men to inspect the site, they were gone. No dead bodies were found in the area too. Also, when we reached the site where we planned to burry the Second Madame, she's not there. And when we try to call them, they didn't pick up their phones." He explained.

"Bullsh*t! What do you mean they're gone?! Do you mean she's still alive? Look for them and kill them! How dare they betray me?" Second Master Luo roared.

"Someone might have saved the Second Madame, Boss and killed our men. They then burned the warehouse to cover it up."

"Then, where are the bodies?!" He angrily asked.

The subordinate was silent.

"Find them. And if your theory was right, find out who helped that bitch to escape from my punishment. Whoever they are, they're going to pay!" Second Master Luo vowed.
