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

Chapter 244 - 243: Missing Their Mother

Alice and Iris had just landed to Paris for their most anticipated wedding.

The couple had long been waiting for this day to happen so they wanted it to be perfect.

The guests (Mei and the rest) would be following them on the next few days together with Vicky.

Only those close friends and families would be attending their wedding. So they didn't have much people in the guests list.

For almost a year, Alice had successfully managed her father's casino and other businesses and she had created quite a good name of her own and made partners with decent business partners and they would be coming over too to give them blessings.

Vicky their daughter, was left with Kelly. Kelly liked Vicky so much and had treated her as her own daughter.

Because of the kids, the bond between the families had gotten closer and closer.

Well, as for Magnus, he lost his rights to father Vicky after he did something terrifying to Alice.

Meanwhile...

Celine was holding Li Jun and Li Wei on both arms while Mei was carrying little Evelien on her arms as they entered the mansion.

They had gotten back from strolling on the mall.

"Did you guys had fun today?" Celine asked the kids.

"Yes."

"No."

The brothers had a different answers.

Li Jun said yes but Li Wei said the opposite.

"Why is that little Midori?" Celine asked the little guy.

"Because Mom's not with us. Does she really love me and brother Aoi?" Li Wei spoke like he was not a toddler.

Hearing his reason, the adults around him was silent.

"Little Aoi, your mom...She loved you and little Aoi. Because if she didn't she would not hold on until you both were borne." Mei tried to explain.

Of course the boys knew that their mother died on the day that they were borne. They had learnt about her death from their grandma. Not from their father, Nathan.

Nathan wanted them to believe that Eunji was alive. That she had gone to a good place and would soon come back after she was bored.

At first, they wanted to respect Nathan's decision but they knew that they could not make the kids to believe on that for a long time.

Even Nathan knew that his children were smarter than the children on their age.

Of course they would start asking about their mother's absence.

And they had to tell them the truth before they learnt it from an outsiders.

Even if Nathan didn't announce Eunji's death to the public, the public would ask as to why there was no Missus Bai on Nathan's side whenever he attended functions and dinner banquets.

Of course, his status was like that of a celebrity in the entertainment industry even though he was involved in business. Everyone's attention was always focused on him.

To dodge those types of questions from the press, Celine would be his female partner every time he attended one.

Celine would of course agree. That way, no more bees would be buzzing around her brother.

There's only one person she welcomed and recognized in her heart as sister-in-law. And that's Eunji.

She wanted to guard her brother so Eunji's soul would be at peace in heaven.

Going back to reality, Mei consoled the kid but Li Wei was in a bad mood.

"Midori, do you believe that mom's already dead?" Little Aoi's question to his brother made everyone to gasp in surprise.

"No."

"Then, stop making that face. Mom would definitely like you if she sees you pulling a long face. Mom only liked cute babies. Not ugly ones like dad."

As he understood what his brother was telling him, little. Midori gasped and said, "Do you mean that Mom didn't come back because Dad is no longer handsome?"

"Exactly! He had that scary dark circles underneath his eyes. And also, he's always angry when he was alone. He's scary!" Little Aoi told his brother.

The two brothers giggled as they talked about their dad.

Nathan who was reading on the documents on the office suddenly sneezed without warning.

Going back to the mansion, because Little Aoi had successfully coaxed his brother, the atmosphere in the house was no longer gloomy.

Even the adults were speechless as they watched the two kids.

They watched the two ran towards their play room leaving Mei, Sana and Celine to be stood rooted on the ground.

Little Evelien reached out as she wanted to join with her brothers but Mei didn't let her go as she needed to have a diaper change.

It was already afternoon and the brothers had to have an afternoon nap.

According to their grandma Mei, they had to so they would grow up faster.

The kids listened to their grandma Mei as there was no harm anyways.

But before they went to sleep, they requested for a cup of ice cream.

Because the kids were fond of ice cream like their mother, Nathan had especially consulted a nutritionist about it.

Too much sugar consumption in the body would cause diabetes.

So Nathan had asked someone to formulate a healthier version of ice cream that used natural fruit sweetener rather than actual sugar in the ingredients.

The kids loved it still though.

Just like Eunji, Li Wei liked milk flavored ice cream while Li Jun liked strawberry ice cream.

After they had one, the kids laid on their bed together and closed their eyes.

But before Li Jun could sleep, Li Wei suddenly asked his brother.

"Brother, do you miss Mom? I miss her voice so much." Li Jun who now closed his eyes suddenly opened and looked at his brother.

"I do...especially when she would talk to us while we were inside with sister."

"I miss sister, too. Even if she always kicked us while we were inside mom's."

If someone would listen to their conversation, they would surely be stupefied.

How advanced could their memory be if they were able to remember the days when they were still inside Eunji's womb?

This was beyond man's imagination.

If the people around them would learn that they were far terrifying than their parents in the future then, those who would be defeated by them in the latter years would probably wish to assassinate them while they were still young.

"Let's sleep. So when we grew big, we could start looking for Mom. And then let's leave Daddy. That old man's boring." Li Wei told his brother as he closed his eyes.

But before they could, someone pushed the door of their room and Mei came in carrying Evelien.

"Boys, can she have a nap beside you?" Mei asked her grandsons who only nodded in the process.

They didn't mind though. Evelien was their sister and as what their dad reminded them always, males should protect the females of the family.

The most important thing, they loved her. They felt comfortable around her. She gave them peace just like their mom.

"Mom, don't you think it's time for the boys to have a private tutor?" Celine asked Mei who was having her afternoon tea in the ladies room.

Mei looked at her daughter and said, "Let's ask your brother's permission about this so he could find a qualified private tutor for the kids."

"Time flies so fast. They would be turning two next month." Celine spoke.

"Sigh. I still felt sorry for the kids. They really missed Eunji-chan." She continued after sipping her coffee.

"They...*sigh* we could not blame them though. From the time they were born, they had not seen their mom. They had only seen her only in a few photos as she barely had any. And your brother...he should be with them instead of spending more time in the company. They had already lost their mom...I don't want them to feel that they were also losing their father."

Though Nathan would find ways to make it up to his children when he had free time from work, he had been so busy lately that the time he had spent with the kids had been so little.

The kids were so young and still growing and they were still starting to form bonds and relationships with the adults and if Nathan would continue his habits, then he would surely lose the affection that the kids had for him in the future.

Kids who grew up in an environment where in both parents were always busy in the office or who would always be on a business trips would never have a happy childhood but a sad and problematic one.

Some would feel that they were being abandoned.

Others make trouble at school to get their parent's attention.

Mei didn't want her grandchildren to feel that way.

Grandma Sana who had been silent since earlier finally spoke.

"Don't worry Mei, that won't happen to my great grandchildren."

"I hope so Mom." Mei sighed deeply.

"How about you Yuki? When are you going to give me great grandkids? I'm not getting younger anymore, child. Hurry up! I still want to carry them in my arms before I die." Grandma Sana teased her granddaughter.

"Grandma! Don't say that! You're still going to live a thousand years and hold hundreds of great grandchildren from us." Celine said.

"Then you better hurry up! Your brother had already given me three. Yuki in your age, you might find it difficult to bear one. You didn't even have a man to introduce as my grandson-in-law!" Grandma Sana scolded her in a teasing tone.

Among her grandchildren, she worried more for Mei.

Though she was a famous celebrity, no one was able to move her.

"Your grandma's right Yuki."

"Mei, why don't you arrange her on dinner dates with fine men that we know. Maybe there's someone who could move her. As long as the man could make her to bear a son or a daughter, I'll welcome him in the family as a grandson-in-law." Grandma Sana said which made both Mei and Celine to have a headache.

When it comes to this issue, Mei didn't want to interfere as she wanted Celine to choose and marry the man that she loved.

However, seems like that would no longer be feasible as her daughter was already running out of time.

She was no longer in her prime years. It would be difficult for her to bear children later on.

"Grandma, I don't want to marry someone I don't like. Even so, I can give you grandchildren though other method." Celine's serious voice rang.

"I know it would be difficult to be a single mom and raising a kid. But I know I can because you successfully did it in the past. My brother had grown up to be outstanding under your care and love. And besides, I had accumulated a good amount of savings. I could support my kids if ever I decided to retire from the entertainment industry." She added living no room for negotiation about the matter.

"Alright! As long as you're happy. That's what matters the most to me." Mei expressed and Sana also nodded though the idea was really knew to her.

"Thanks mom!" Celine was thankful that they both understood her.

"Anyways, we would be leaving tomorrow morning to Paris." Celine quickly changed the topic as she was afraid it would turn to her again.

"I had already packed a week worth of clothes for the kids. They're ready to attend Alice and Iris' wedding." Mei smiled as she said that. She could not contain her happiness as she thought of Alice and Iris.

"I'm so happy for them. Finally, they're going to tie the knots. No one's going to get on their way." Celine paused as she sighed and added, "I just hoped that Iris would be able to forgive herself for what happened during the accident."

"Me too."

When she woke up, Iris was very devastated when she learned that Eunji died.

She could not accept it and started blaming herself for being incompetent.

It was not her fault though. It was after all an accident. An accident that robbed a year of her life.

"I know in time Mom. She'd definitely will." Celine said.
