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

Chapter 7 - 7: Bullied

Chapter 7: Bullied

Tiger accompanied Kim Eunji to where Kelly and Mo Jing-sheng were staying. They were ridding a cab as requested by Kim Eunji. She didn't want to attract attention as for sure, the latter would arrange a luxurious ride for her.

The cab headed to the Platinum Residences. One of the most expensive neighborhood in Beijing. It was where the CEOs of the million-dollar companies lived.

As the cab neared the entrance gate of the village, they were stopped by the guards. It was their protocol for the visitors to present their identification and also a letter of invitation from the home owners should you wish to enter the neighborhood or at least listed in the expected guest book of the village.

Eunji did not have any of those. Her visit was unexpected. She knew Platinum Residence because of the tracker that she placed in Kelly's phone. Therefore, her visit was supposed to be a surprise.

Kim Eunji pursed her lips as she thought of what she should do. Kim Eunji decided to get off the cab as it would be impolite for her if she dragged the cab driver in her petty problem.

Actually, she could quickly solve her problem by bypassing the entrance like the old days.

She took her phone to call Kelly but the latter was not answering her calls at all.

"Mister, can you not really let us in?" Kim Eunji asked once again.

"I'm sorry Miss but we can't. Protocol is protocol. We could not let you in just because you're pretty."

One of the guards said.

"I'm worried of my friend. She's not answering my calls at all. What if something happened to her?" At first, she thought that Kelly was only mad at her for not giving her face yesterday. Though they had few misunderstandings in the past, the latter would still answer her calls no matter how upset she was with her.

This was the first time she regretted not agreeing Kelly's request of not prying into her husband's background. What if the latter hurt Kelly? She didn't even know the latter's name!

Kim Eunji showed Kelly's photo to them.

"This is my friend Kelly. She's living in one of the villas here. By any chance, do you have a way to call their house to inform them that we're here?"

As the guards looked at Kelly's photo, one of them recognized who Kelly was immediately.

"Oh, Missus Mo!"

"Yes that's her!"

"Miss, I saw Master Mo's car left earlier. It was still dark when they did and haven't returned yet." He spoke.

"Is Kelly inside the car when you saw it?" Kim Eunji asked him.

"I'm not sure. Master Mo's car window is tinted. It's so hard to see who's inside unless they voluntarily rolled down the glass."

"Is that so? Do you have any idea where they went? Or can you at least give a ring in their house and ask of their whereabouts?"

Finally the head guard gave in and contacted the Mo Residence.

"Is that so? Someone's here in the main entrance and was looking for Madame Mo. Okay. I will tell her."

"What happened?" Kim Eunji asked as the uneasiness in her heart grew.

"Master Mo and Missus Mo's in the hospital right now. Se-"

Before he could continue his words, Kim Eunji cut him off.

"Which hospital?!" Sense of urgency flooded through her system.

'Kelly.' She's more than worried now.

"M Hospital."

Kim Eunji did not wait for him to finish what he was about to say and hailed a cab going to M Hospital with Tiger following her.

While they were on the way, lot of thoughts filled her head.

She even urged the cab driver to drive a little bit faster but Tiger reminded her that they're already on the speed limit and over speeding would delay them more as the traffic police would definitely chase them.

Though the entire trip took thirty minutes, Kim Eunji felt like it was longer than that.

Tiger and Kim Eunji rushed to the Information desk to ask for Kelly's whereabouts.

"Excuse me. Is there a patient named Kelly Roland.. no Mo Mei Lien."

Cui Mei Lien was Kelly's Chinese name.

"I'm sorry Miss but her information is private. We could not disclose any information about her." The nurse at the information desk said.

"Is that so?" Kim Eunji already expected this.

"Mistress, do you want me to do something?" Tiger offered as she could see the distress evident in Kim Eunji's face.

"Thank you but it's fine." Though Kim Eunji said that the situation was fine for her, deep inside she was already formulating a plan in her head.

"Actually, you could help me at something." Kim Eunji said as she looked at Tiger.

***

A few men in black guarding the VVIP ward of the M Hospital fell one by one without knowing what was happening.

Tiger executed her moves fluidly. Just like Kim Eunji, she's a needle user. Though the speed of her needles were a little slower than that of Eunji's but her attacks were lethal.

Now that any obstacles were clear, Kim Eunji unlocked the door of the private room while Tiger stood as guard by the door.

As she opened the door, Kim Eunji saw Kelly who was peacefully sleeping on the bed.

Kelly moved and her eyes opened.

"Eunji." She softly called her name.

"En." Kim Eunji rushed to her side immediately.

"What happened?" She worriedly asked her bestfriend.

"I slipped on the toilet and almost lost our baby." She then subconsciously placed her palm on her still-flat belly.

"Wait... baby..." she then followed Kelly's gesture as she continued "You're pregnant?!" Kim Eunji asked in surprise.

"Fortunately yes! You're an aunt now!" Kelly's eyes sparkled as she confirmed.

'Aunt' her heart turned soft the moment she heard the word aunt.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

"I didn't know earlier that a precious person is already growing inside me." Kelly explained.

"Oh!"

"Wait! How did you know I'm here?" As Eunji recalled her purpose of coming she felt guilty.

"I... went to your place. Unfortunately the guards at the main entrance stopped us before we even entered the neighborhood."

Eunji also told her about the tracker she secretly installed on the latter's phone. She knew that what she did was invading her best friend's privacy. But what could she do when all she's thinking was her safety in the first place?

"I already knew about it."

Kim Eunji's eyes widened in shock. "You knew?!"

"En. But that's not the main issue here." As Eunji thought of the reason why she's in front of Kelly's she suddenly felt guilty.

"I'm sorry for not returning your calls." Kim Eunji spoke in guilty tone.

"Is that all?" Kelly's brows raised as she tried to make Eunji guiltier.

Heaven knows how anxious she was when the chauffeur arranged by Mo Jing-sheng for Kim Eunji arrived in their manor with no Kim Eunji at all?

She told her that she could stay in the villa since Mo Jing-sheng's place had a lot of rooms. Or was it a miscommunication on their part?

"I'm sorry for not giving you face in front of your husband. For not taking your offer of staying in your place." Kim Eunji's added as she acted like a little girl who was about to receive a beating from her strict mother.

"Sigh. What should I do with you? You're such a pain in the ass you know." Kelly sighed in resignation.

"I know but you still choose to love me despite knowing that fact." Kim Eunji confidently said as she flashed a grin in her face.

"Shameless!" Kelly said as she poke Kim Eunji's forehead.

"So, where are you staying now?" Kelly inquired.

"QPRC." Kim Eunji honestly answered. She felt that there's no point hiding this to Kelly since she'll know eventually.

"Oh." was the only word that Kelly uttered but then her eyes widened as realization hit her.

"Do you mean Queen's Paradise Resort and Casino here in Beijing?!"

"The one and only." Eunji replied in nonchalance.

Kelly was speechless but then her gaze turned sharp as she tried to interrogate Kim Eunji in her mind.

"Don't give me that look. I didn't do anything illegal at all." Kim Eunji said as she tried to defend herself.

"I got a membership card as a gift." She tried to explain but she knew the latter won't buy it.

Deep inside, Kelly could not help not to be hurt.

She never pried on her best friend's private matters as they both respect each other's privacy. And she felt like the latter had been hiding a lot from her all this time.

"You've been hiding this from me all this time?!" Kelly asked in disappointment.

"I didn't tell you about this because I felt like it's no big deal at all!" Kim Eunji tried to explain.

"So please don't make a fuss out of it. And please consider your situation before you overreact like this." Kim Eunji pleaded which made Kelly's expression softened.

"Tell me honestly. How many more things are there that you have been keeping a secret from me?" Kelly seriously asked as she recovered from her earlier shock.

"Not that many."

As soon as Kim Eunji honestly told her the truth Kelly's face turned sour.

"But... Kelly, I have my reasons for doing so. It is--"

"To protect me." Kelly continued what Kim Eunji was about to say.

"Yeah. And aside from that, nothing more. You're the first person who wholeheartedly accepted me despite knowing who I was in the past. And I'm very grateful that you did not ask questions about it. But trust me. It's for the better that you didn't know anything regarding with this matter." Kim Eunji said in a pleading tone.

Kelly sighed as soon as she felt helplessness coming from Eunji's voice.

"Just promise me you would not do anything stupid. Stupid enough that would brought you harm."

"En!" Kim Eunji's eyes sparkled in joy that made the atmosphere in the room to lit up and became lively.

"I promise!" Kim Eunji swore.

Their happy interaction came to a pause when the door opened revealing a handsome man.

'Must be him.' Kim Eunji threw a meaningful look to Kelly as she asked for confirmation but she didn't have to ask as she saw how dumbstruck in love her best friend was.

'So this was it. 'Everything fades in comparison when the love of your life showed up right in front of you.'' She quoted a famous line that people under the spell of the thing called love would usually answer when asked by the question which was, 'How does it feel like when you saw the person you love?'

Even her mother gave her a relatively close answer.

Kim Eunji never wanted to be the third-wheel in someone's relationship even if it was Kelly's. She felt the urge to run away.

"Oh! Your husband's here. I think I'm not needed here anymore. I'll take my leave then."

"..."

Kim Eunji was about to make her exit when Kelly's voice rang.

"Hold up! Who told you that you're good to leave?"

"Am I not?" Kim Eunji answered.

Mo Jing-sheng's interest was caught by their silly interaction. Well, as a wife doting husband, everything about her would always pick up his interest. And now, he's interested to know what type of person his wife's best friend was.

He never got the chance to investigate Kim Eunji as his wife pleaded him not to do so. She asked him to trust the people around her the same as how he trusted her.

Kelly belonged to the group of people whom their trust could not be gained easily. 'This girl should be one hell of a person to gain my wife's favor.' Mo Jing-sheng thought.

"No! And what do you think you're doing?" Kelly firmly answered.

"Take it easy wife." Mo Jing-sheng gently reminded his wife from the sideline.

"I'm sorry hubby that you have to witness this. I felt the urge to teach this woman a lesson." She sweetly replied to him.

"Alright. Go ahead." He supported her.

"What did I do? I just want to give the two of you alone time together." Kim Eunji felt like she was being bullied by this couple.
