The CEO’s Pet Cat

Looking at Mia’s pale face that had no blood at all, Lily couldn’t help but reveal a painful face. From the first time she saw Mia, she had a wonderful good feeling towards Mia and actually wanted her to become her daughter-in-law, but …

Lily slowly stood up from the sofa and painfully took Mia’s soft hands, her loving gaze looking at the expressionless face, “It’s our Jun family that’s sorry … child, don’t be sad … I’ll take the place of Asher apologize to you.”

Seeing his wife’s teary eyes, Adam Jun’s eyes couldn’t help but sink, he could tell this Mia was a good girl, he even thought Mia seemed to be a better fit for Asher than Lena too.

However, in the Jun family, Grandpa Jun has always been authoritarian and domineering, and the decisions he makes cannot be questioned, so they don’t know how to help Mia.

“Dad, it’s so late, can’t we talk tomorrow about what’s going on?” Lily’s begging gaze went to Grandpa Jun, and then to a pale Mia with pity.

“Asher’s had a busy day too, and I don’t think today is the time to talk about it.” Jun Haotian also chimed in to help.

God swept a glance at his son and daughter-in-law, then looked at his grandson who had been beside him without saying a word, his gaze finally positioned on Mia’s face, his deep eyes gazing coldly at her, “Miss Luo, I’ll give you three days to think it over. If you want money, I will compensate you, but you must leave, you are not worthy of our Jun family.”

“Grandpa, a power-climbing woman like her is better off … early,” Riina wanted to say something else, but at the release of Asher’s icy glare, her heart reluctantly swallowed back the words that followed hard.

Asher’s tall body stood up from the sofa, a pair of cold eyes swept the whole room, an invisible pressure flowed out, the living room suddenly fell into a dead silence atmosphere.

Mia’s lifeless eyes stayed locked on Asher, and a heart grew cold when she saw his icy look.

She turned slowly with a dull gaze and walked with a halting gait towards the living room beyond.

She’s leaving …

She doesn’t want to stay here …

She doesn’t want to see Asher …

She doesn’t want to see the man who caused her heartache …

Asher stood as Mia shuffled away from the living room, his heart fighting a throbbing pain, unable to resist reaching out and holding his hand over his heart.

Why, this woman was clearly just his pet.

Why, when he saw her leave, did his heart ache?

“Look at that! Leaving without a word, how can a woman like that stay in Jun’s house!” Grandpa Jun’s sharp eyes stared at the figure disappearing into the living room.Property © 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.

Asher’s gloomy eyes were fixed on Grandpa Jun, an invisible aura of coldness spread quickly, the palms hanging at his side trembled and clenched into double fists, his large hands pointed unceremoniously straight in the direction of the door, “Now you are satisfied, since you are satisfied, now get out of here right now!”

He had a shadowy aura about him that made Grandpa Jun feel terrible, and he didn’t speak at all, just left the villa with the support of Leena in a contented manner. The Jun Haotian couple gave Asher a worried look and left the villa in silence.

Mia didn’t leave that night, and since Grandpa Jun gave her three more days, she planned to spend them digesting the reality of what was coming.

In fact, she wanted to stay and see Asher a few more times.

Perhaps, it will never be seen again.

For two days after that, Asher didn’t return to the villa, and Mia didn’t ask the housekeeper about his whereabouts, her heart like a pool of dead water.

The living room of Villa Asher.

Mia sat in the unbelievably luxurious living room, her eyes staring motionlessly at the newspaper in her hand, a freshly freshly published evening paper, the unfolded paper was resting on the entertainment section, and right in the middle was the bucket-large headline – Asher, the president of Jun’s group, and his fiancée.

The background of the newspaper shot shows that it is a party held by a business celebrity, and the two people who are in the spotlight are intimately holding hands together with their sweet faces facing the camera.

Mia fixedly looked at the newspaper, a pair of eyes could not see any emotion, no ripples in the slightest quietly looked at the newspaper page, a long time before this newspaper put down. Mia, who had put down the newspaper, slowly walked out of the living room.

It wasn’t long before the butler, who was packing up his things, saw the newspaper laid out on the table, saw one of the addresses marked, and when he saw that there was no sign of Mia, a wave of unease rose in his heart and he immediately pulled out his cell phone and dialed the number.

The address that was marked out was the location where the young master and Miss Lina had their engagement photos taken today.

Asher picked up the phone and after hearing the butler’s words, his cold eyes immediately erupted with the ultimate coldness, causing a cadre of staff members who were putting together their costumes to look on in horror.

After grimly even putting down the phone, Asher immediately dialed another number, only to hear a prompt that the number he had dialed was off.

The tall, erect but emitting coldness leaned against the clean white wall as Asher took the Bluetooth headset off his ear, a biting smile melting from the corners of his lips.

Mia, what a nerve to turn off the phone!

Slamming the phone shut fiercely, the ice in his cold eyes grew thicker, the smile on his lips even colder, while Asher’s heart flashed with unease. He didn’t want to admit that he’d been avoiding it on purpose for the past two days, afraid that if he saw Mia’s pale face again, her helpless eyes, he’d go soft.

Originally, he didn’t want to accept Grandpa Jun’s arrangement and was going to find a temporary girlfriend to rebel against Grandpa Jun’s control over him. Who would have thought that he would unconsciously develop feelings for Mia!

This revelation made him incredulous, and to control this emotion, he preferred Leena and could even accompany her to take the so-called boring wedding photos. At least, in front of Leena, he always kept his sanity as it should be.

However, after hearing the butler’s report just now, his heart surprisingly began to ache vaguely.

This woman, where the hell had she gone? After freezing for a while, he immediately dialed another number.

Always, he was still reluctant to confront Mia head on.

But Mia, having seen the address of Asher and Leena’s wedding photos in the newspaper, rushes to the wedding hall.

To this day she still doesn’t want to believe the information she heard last night, and Mia tells herself that maybe she’ll die when she sees them actually taking wedding photos.

But when she arrived at the sight, Mia was suddenly too reticent to go in, and the fingers she had reached for the door were slowly withdrawn, a wave of sadness rising in her heart.

Even if she knew he was in there, so what was the point of her coming here when things were set in stone anyway and she was bound to leave the Jun family?

Eyes slightly averted, Mia looked so lonely and helpless.

Seeing her standing in front of the shop, the wedding hall’s lady of etiquette approached curiously, “Miss, do you want to take wedding photos? We, um the photographer here is famous …”

“I’m not here to see the wedding dress, I, I’m, I’m here to see someone, I heard they’re here now taking pictures.” Mia barely managed a smile and tried to sound as calm as she could.

“Oh, and which one are you looking for? I can ask around for you.” The lady of ceremony asked politely.

“Asher and Leena.” Mia’s voice was so inaudible that she could barely even hear herself.

“So it’s Master Jun, they’re taking pictures right on the second floor, let me take you up there!” The etiquette lady hesitated for a moment, but still took her up to the second floor, “They’re taking pictures right inside, you can see them from outside, don’t disturb Master Jun, we can’t afford to do that.”

Mia peered inside a little and saw Claude standing in the corner, she turned back to the lady of ceremonies and thanked her. When the lady of ceremonies left, Mia took off her shoes and took a big deep breath at the door before quietly walking in.

She had just entered, and out of the corner of her eye, she saw Asher and Leena in the other room, in the middle of a photo shoot, Asher was standing behind Leena, reaching around her waist, his head slightly lowered, while Leena’s head was raised sideways, their lips almost touching.

Although she had been prepared for this, when she saw it with her own eyes, her heart felt like it had been hit hard by something, a suffocating sensation that made her almost gasp for air.

Her nose snapped up and Mia’s tears suddenly poured down.

Hearing a few inaudible cries, Claude, standing in the corner, turned back suspiciously, and when he saw Mia standing not far away, a pair of good-looking eyebrows knitted together.

Asher’s hunch was too good to be true, and the woman actually came looking for it.

Claude stepped steadily to Mia’s side and looked at her with a warm smile, a gentleman pulled out a Kleenex and handed it to her, “I can’t believe you’re crying here, this is not the Mia I know.”

Mia unceremoniously took the tissues, her tear-stained eyes lifting gently, quickly adjusting to her breakdown at the sight of Claude’s smiling eyes; she couldn’t let Claude see her like this.

After making sure her emotions had normalized, she then looked up and gazed at him calmly, “Vice President Xiang, it’s really a coincidence that I ran into you here.”

She didn’t think it was a coincidence that Claude would be here at all.

Seeing her adjust herself quickly, a quick flash of surprise passed under Claude’s eyes, but a harmless smile remained on his face, “Mia, my intentions and yours are, surely, different.”

“Then I’d like to hear what you’re up to.” The black and white eyes looked at Claude as if to see him through.

Deep eyes looked to the slightly open doorway behind him, Claude’s smiling eyes looked to Mia, “This is not a good place to talk, so if you don’t mind, please follow me.”
