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

"Yeah and that's the sad part." Angelina could only sigh.

"Now, we better hurry up before Sophie would barge in the kitchen and act like a little master chef." Eunji said and Angelina giggled in agreement.

"Yeah right." Angelina said.

"So, how's your mom?" She said while she was done cleaning the chicken.

She was now preparing to marinate it first with breading mix and other spices before cooking it.

Eunji was skillfully slicing the vegetables, meat, onions, mushrooms, and green bell pepper for their dinner.

No one could defeat Eunji when it comes to knife skills.

She ground the a whole pork belly cut with her two chopping knives so she could add it inside the steam bun later.

She then cooked the ground pork first and added some spices in it.

Then, she placed the rest of the thin-sliced meat on a tray and added her secret spices and let it sit until later.

She then washed the lettuce leaves and set aside it on a clean tray.

Layla could only eat light food since she's still recovering. So she cooked her porridge first while Angelina would be cooking her a chicken soup recipe that was good for her fast recovery and healing.

The rice cooker beeped telling her that the rice was now simmering.

"Eomma's recovering. She may be able to walk on her own a day or two." Eunji said confidently.

"That's good to hear." Angelina said in relief.

"I never thought you would be able to meet your mom again." She added.

"Me, too. I never expect that we would be able to reunite today." Relief and happiness was evident in Eunji's voice.

She still could not believe that her mom was still alive all these years.

She had not talked with her mom about her recollection to what happened that night.

It's okay if she didn't have any but it's way better if she did.

And she would like to know how she was related to that don.

"Well, it's safe to say that you're a person with a good heart. You never hesitated to give help to those who needed your help. What you're receiving now's good karma from all of the positive things that you had been doing all these years." Angelina smiled at Eunji after saying that.

She then sautéed the spices like sliced ginger, onion, and garlic in olive oil and then put the chopped chicken leaving Eunji on deep thoughts.

Eunji never looked at herself as a good person. No good person would let her hands be stained with someone else's blood.

But if there's someone who needed help, she would never hesitate to lend a hand and help.

What was the main cause why someone was forced to commit a crime?

Except from those evil natured people, most of those crimes started from desperation.

The saddest part was that, they would be easily put into jail with least chance of getting out.

And it had been happening for many years now.

She didn't want them to be forced to commit a crime because no one helped them while they were in a very difficult situation that would be hard for them to come around.

That's why she established her foundation, too.

She gave a second chance for those who needed one. An opportunity to become better. To have a better way of living and be a better person that's willing to uplift others rather than pulling them down.

Angelina's tap on the shoulder broke Eunji's chain of thoughts.

"A penny for your thoughts?" Angelina asked Eunji.

"Nothing. It's just that it felt weird hearing that I am a good person. I killed people. I took their loves without even batting an eye. And that's something...that's unacceptable."

"But you regretted what you did in the past right? And the people you're killing after that, they're not totally innocent, they hurt people. And besides, you're more entitled now because you're a legal agent who could punish those criminals."

"Still, the law would tell you that it's not good to kill people but if you didn't take action first, they'd only be giving you a hard time. You're not abusing your authority either. You're only doing your job by killing those criminals who are beyond redemption." Angelina interrupted her.

The world that they were in was like a jungle. The justice system was useless against those influential and powerful people who could manipulate and twist the truth to be favorable to them.

So it's better to kill them first before they'd kill her.

That's a sad reality in this toxic world.

"They better stop being bad so you could also rest in pursuing them." Angelina joked.

"Nah, as long as those people who would want me and my family to be in danger were gone, I won't stop hunting them down." Eunji answered.

After the chicken soup was cooked, Angelina set it aside and she started frying the chicken while Eunji was cooking for the vegetable while also setting up the grill pan and the portable stove on the center of the table.

They'll be having barbecue for tonight.

She went into the pantry and took a jar full of kimchi and placed some on the clean plate. She hummed in satisfaction when she tasted the kimchi with her finger tip.

After the potatoes and carrots were cooked, she mashed them and added the cooked ground pork on it then mixed it together.

She then took flour and started making a dough for her bun.

Once she was done making her bun, she put it on the steamer and waited for it to cook.

After Angelina was done cooking with the fried chicken, she placed it on a clean plate and put it on the table.

While the bun was steaming inside the electric steamer, Eunji called out everyone so they could eat dinner.

Angelina started grilling the meat which was left by Eunji earlier.

After calling them, Eunji then made a dipping sauce for the barbecue.

"Wow!" Sophie exclaimed when she saw what they would be having for dinner.

"Chicken!" She shouted.

"Thank you, mommy!" Sophie exclaimed and ran towards her mother to hug her on her legs.

The child knew that her mother was allergic to chicken and seafoods but for her sake, her mom would ask her Aunt Angelina to cook it for her.

"You're welcome baby. Go and wash your hands with sister Karina, okay?" Eunji told her daughter.

"Eunnie!" She called Karina who only smiled because of Sophie's cuteness.

"Let's go."

Sophie spread her arms for Karina to lift her up and placed her on a chair so she could wash her hands.

Layla and the nurse followed inside the kitchen with Master Liu tailing behind them.

"Oh wow! It's always nice to have two female cooks in the house!" He commented.

Everyone chuckled because of Master Liu's comment.

Everyone was seated around the table. Angelina was grilling the barbecue while the others was starting to eat the chicken.

Layla was eating her porridge and sipped the chicken soup. But still, she could not help but give a glance to her daughter who was sitting a seat to her right.

"Don't worry mom, I asked Angelina to cook it for me. So I won't have any allergy attack." Eunji said.

Though she had the drug that would help her touch and eat those food that she's allergic with, she had not shot herself with it today.

"Good!" Layla heaved a sigh of relief.

Everyone enjoyed the food and the atmosphere in the room was quite harmonious.

How? It's all thanks to Sophie and Karina.

Thanks to these two kids, the adults had topics to talk about in the dinning table.

Or else it would be awkward.

Eunji had always been a quiet person, so did Angelina.

Master Liu would make jokes but he would stop when everyone was not in the mood.

And Layla, just like Eunji, she preferred to eat silently.

When they were done eating and was about to clean up the table, Eunji spoke.

"Eomma, Angelina and I would be leaving for a business convention in Paris for a week. Will you be okay here with the kids and Master?" Eunji asked Layla.

"You're leaving Mommy?" Sophie asked her mother with a sad eyes.

"Aunty and I had to attend for a business convention baby. You'll be with grandma and Karina-unnie and Master. You'll stay with Master's villa in Busan while I am away." Eunji promised her daughter.

"Really?" The child asked with expectant eyes.

"Yes. So better behave while I am away, okay?" Eunji smiled.

"Okay!" Eunji knew that Sophie liked to see the outdoors but the child was sensible enough to not tell her mom about it.

But as a mother, she knew what Sophie was feeling.

Since it's already night, Master Liu would be bringing them there tomorrow morning.

"When will you be leaving?" Layla could not help but ask her.

"Tonight Eomma. You'll be leaving with Master tomorrow morning. I had already bought a week worth of clothes and had delivered it to Master's house."

"Sophie and Karina already had their clothes on Master's place so you don't have to worry packing for them." Eunji said.

"Oh...then, be careful and have a safe trip." Layla said.

Eunji nodded and started cleaning with Angelina's help and then went into her room to change.

When she walked out, she was wearing a comfortable grey cardigan, black jeans, white shoes, thick winter jacket and her gold mask covering her face.

A scarf was wrapped around her neck for extra layer of protection against the cold outside.

Angelina also wore an almost similar outfit and put her silver mask on.

Sophie and Karina was already used to these two women wearing their mask so they didn't ask them.

The kids had this tacit understanding to not ask their mothers.

"Take care and come back safely." Layla told Eunji.

"I will mom. I will."
