The CEO’s Pet Cat

Riina was silent, neither nodding nor retorting, but such silence spoke volumes, and her eyes told everyone that she was acquiescing.

The reporters coaxed a discussion; it had seemed like there was something else going on with Mia five years ago, and now that they’d heard Lena say it, they could be sure that there was bound to be a hidden agenda, but it seemed to be Asher’s problem.

“Miss Lina, Master Jun asked you to confess to this and here you are, did he threaten you with something, or lure you in?”

Riina pondered for a moment that this was a really bad question to answer, but she still stonewalled it with an impeccable smile and sad eyes, and the unscrupulous reporter, immediately brainstormed the words Riina didn’t answer.

In fact, Lina had come here today with the intention of discrediting Asher, not only at her father’s behest, but also from her own heart, and if Asher was unkind, she would be unjust, which was fairer.

But Dina hadn’t seriously thought about it; was Asher really considered unkind? He had indulged in putting up with Dina for a long time, and if it wasn’t for her father’s sake, if it wasn’t for the power behind her, Asher would have gone much further with Dina than just simply testing the waters a bit.

He thought that Mia had changed her mind or something had gone wrong, so he drove to Mia’s office immediately after leaving the meeting.

Little did Asher know that he had only set off a few minutes or so before Mia just happened to brush up against him and make it to the venue.

Mia was only late because of an unexpected car trouble on the way, and she was standing outside the door of the venue just as Leena had finished that speech.

The volume of the microphone was not low, and even outside the venue, the echo could be heard lingering, so Lina’s words were heard by Mia exactly, and she shuddered with a pale face, and Nangong asked next to her, immediately holding her up.

“Mia , are you okay?” Nangong asked gently, his tall figure standing behind Mia, forming a firm protective circle, enough for Mia to lean on with confidence.

However Mia’s mind is not on her at all, she is now frantic to find Asher and demand an explanation, how could he be so cruel in the first place!

Someone soon spotted Mia standing in the doorway, and when the reporters saw it was Mia, they rushed forward and surrounded her, the sound of the shutter chattering to life and the flashing lights stinging Mia to tears.

The secretary took one look and knew something was wrong, rushing to call Asher from her cell phone, after a few beeps, Asher’s cold, anxious voice came through the receiver, “What is it?”This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

A cold chill went straight to the secretary’s forehead, “Master Jun, Miss Lina just said that you were responsible for Miss Luo’s incident, and, now Miss Luo is already there ah.”

Asher immediately growled in exasperation, “I’ll be right back!”

The car sped to maximum speed, Asher made a U-turn, ran several red lights in a row, and pranced back to the Sakurachan building, Asher’s dark, sullen face causing anyone who saw him on the road to dodge far away.

Although Asher had always had an iceberg face and was relentless in releasing cold air, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Asher was truly furious to the extreme today.

Asher’s feet had been perfectly composed once he’d stepped into the press conference room, and his breathing had settled, yet he still sharpened for a moment at the sight of Mia’s pale face.

“Don’t listen to Rina’s nonsense, she is beautiful but her heart is absolutely vicious, what she just said is just her attempt to frame me.” Asher paused at the number of times he said, “Besides, for this kind of woman, there is no need for me to maintain a relationship with her anymore, I announce that my engagement with Lina is officially broken.”

Lena’s face was broken, she hadn’t said anything out of turn, she had wanted to give Asher a chance to save her life, but she hadn’t expected Asher to leave her no face in front of everyone.

“Asher, what are you talking about? Riina instinctively panicked and covered the microphone, but Asher’s words just now had long been recorded intact by the reporter’s video camera, and there should be no possibility of redeeming their feelings for each other.

Asher was exceptionally angry at Riina’s posturing; she had just deceived everyone, including Mia, with this seemingly innocent and honest face, causing serious damage to his qualities as well as his credibility.

“Slap.” A crunching sound caused a big wave of rendering as Riina was thrown back several steps into a chair by Asher’s slap, and she felt her burning cheek for a moment to even react.

Asher just wanted to teach Riina a lesson, and immediately after the fight, he turned to Mia who was already walking towards the outside of the venue to give her an explanation, but he saw Mia’s footsteps were a little weak with Nangong asking for support, and she glanced back at Asher, the corners of her mouth pursed tightly in disdain.

Asher’s heart stuttered and he took a big step towards Mia, only to be stopped in his tracks by a disgusted look from her and the feeling that the world was caving in.

Nangong asked and turned around and scolded, “Haven’t you hurt Mia enough? Calling her here today just to hurt her again?!”

Nangong asked has always been soft, there are not many opportunities to frown and fume like this, Asher does not fear Nangong asked’s appalling aura in the slightest, glares back and says in a cold voice, “It’s none of your business.”

With that, he wanted to pull Mia, who was in Nangong Man’s embrace, over.

Unexpectedly Mia dodged his hand with a dodge, her dark pupils were full of sarcasm, her stunning face was covered with heartache and contempt, she snorted at Asher, “I really didn’t expect that the one I’d fall for would be a heartless, heartless and shameless man like you, I was really blind before!”

She was tugged by Nangong asked and walked out the door very decisively, not lingering to look at Asher again, who didn’t follow him out again, he had a mess to clean up behind him.

The press conference was now a mess, all the reporters were feverishly filming everywhere with their cameras, security couldn’t stop them no matter how much they tried, Asher and Leena’s every move didn’t escape their cameras, flashes were flashing all over the room.

Asher’s secretary was a very capable man, he saw Asher turn back to deal with the scene instead of going out to chase Mia, he couldn’t help but twitch the corners of his mouth and was speechless to Asher, he quickly ran over to speak Asher pushed out the door and shouted, “My young master what are you waiting for, go after it, I’m here!”

Asher jerked awake at his remark and drew his legs up and headed for the door, seeing that the elevator had gone down to the second floor, Asher couldn’t wait and dashed down the stairs.

He had never exerted such speed before, and it took him barely two minutes to sprint down a dozen floors, yet by the time he reached the door, he still only had time to see a hazy glimpse of Mia’s back.

Nangong asked after him, and it seemed that Mia was so angry that she didn’t even do the car and just ran away.

Asher rushes after her, running across a street with an intersection ahead, Nangong asks if she may have broken her foot in the process of running, losing some of her speed to Mia, Asher watches as Mia runs towards the traffic –

“No!” Asher and Namgung asked, yelling at the same time!

The sound of the emergency brakes and the blood on the ground made Asher feel that the world was hazy and shrouded in a layer of blood, he scraped by like a whirlwind and snatched Mia from Nangong’s hand in an instant, his eyes instantly wet, he shook Mia’s body and called out loudly, “Mia, Mia!”

The car had taken off, but no one bothered to care about it; the Chinese nature of spectatorship came out at this point, surrounding Asher and Nangong asking, who were carrying Mia in their arms, and pointing.

Blood continued to seep from Mia’s side, quickly staining her snow-white dress, and Asher looked at her in despair, helpless.

Nangong asked to stop Asher’s constant shaking of Mia, his face was also covered with panic, but in the end he still had a shred of sanity left, he controlled Asher with one hand, while the other cupped his phone and dialed 120 for an emergency vehicle.

Still sane, Mia turned her face to the side and murmured softly, “You let go of me, Asher, I hate you.”

Men have tears, but Asher couldn’t control the soreness of his eyes at the moment and a tear flowed down Mia’s body as he whimpered, “Mia , hang in there, you’re going to be okay!”

Mia’s skirt had been stained with blood and Asher’s body had been stained red, her consciousness was fading and she could no longer hear what Asher was saying, just a little cool wetness on her face that made her slightly uncomfortable.

Mia twitched the corners of her mouth gently and Asher leaned down to her lips, trying to quite what she was saying, however Mia was already breathless and the street was so noisy that he couldn’t hear Mia at all.

Asher’s hands trembled as he held Mia, his heart deserted, when the sound of a dropping beep sounded in the distance and the ambulance came into view in the blink of an eye.

Nangong asked a shaking hand to probe Mia’s nostrils, feeling the hint of Liao’s near-absent exhalation before he breathed a small sigh of relief and greeted the paramedics in white coats for them to come help.

Asher seemed to have lost his mind, and refused to let go of his grip on Mia. The paramedics took a lot of effort to get Mia out of his hands, and at this time, Nangong asked not to bother too much with Asher, and he took the disoriented Asher to the paramedic car.

The medivac roared off in a desperate rush.

Various instruments flickered faintly to monitor Mia’s physical condition, and a snapping back Asher sat next to Mia, his large rough hand cupping a kerchief to wipe Mia’s cheek, mentally vowing to get rid of Lena.

Mia’s condition had stabilized and was lying in a pure white bed, breathing steadily, while Asher looked paler compared to her still normal face.
