The CEO’s Pet Cat

The cane in Grandpa Jun’s hand landed with a majestic muffled thud, but his face eased slightly, “Asher, look, even though you’ve done something wrong, little Na is still looking out for you. What is this woman’s origin and why did you bring her here, if you have a reasonable explanation for what happened today, I’ll forgive you for the sake of little Na!”

Asher remained stony-faced and unresponsive.

“You, you shoo this woman away from me immediately, it’s simply degrading to the family!” Grandpa Jun’s face, which had just eased up, was clouded again.

Mia finally couldn’t look at it anymore and spoke faintly, “Grandpa Jun, you don’t need to be angry, I’ll just go!”

“Who’s leaving, I just got back and immediately someone wants to leave?” A bright voice was heard saying just as Mia’s words fell.

Hearing this voice, Grandpa Jun and Mr. and Mrs. Jun Haotian both had a joyful look on their faces, “This kid, he’s finally back!”

All eyes looked towards the door, only to see another Asher standing in the doorway.

Ink-black and blue hair, handsome and charming face, except the only difference from Asher was that he always had a bad smile on his face and a pair of charming eyes that looked like they were rippling away layer after layer. He stood idly in the doorway, as if the sunlight of the entire world had gathered on him.

“Liam, why don’t you hurry over here, when did you get back?” After seeing the man at the door, there was always a smile on Mr. and Mrs. Jun Haotian’s face.

Apparently, he’s Asher’s twin brother Liam Jun!

Everyone was speculating because this second young master of the Jun family had always been a godsend, and was said to have grown up in America since he was a child, but I didn’t expect to see both of their brothers today!

Many women, immediately, set their eyes on Liam Jun, who seemed more approachable than the cold-faced Asher!

It was obvious that Grandpa Jun was very fond of Liam Jun, and surprisingly, he put aside his earlier displeasure and pulled Liam Jun to his side to shush him with a doting smile on his face. Grandpa Jun and Mr. and Mrs. Jun Haotian also seemed to have a lot to say to Liam Jun, and looked at the guests present, before they walked into the room together.

Seeing that the atmosphere was not as dull as it had been a moment ago, all the guests then turned to look at ease and resumed the hilarity of earlier.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

Asher’s face remained cold and unchanged at the two very different kinds of treatment.

It seemed that he had long since adjusted to what had just happened.

Inexplicably, an unspeakable tenderness welled up in Mia’s heart. It seemed that Asher wasn’t as proud as he looked on the outside. He was despondent and his face was full of coldness, but he was faking it.

“You don’t have to worry too much about what just happened.” Walking over to Asher’s side, Mia took a deep breath and faintly reassured him.

A pair of black eyes suddenly turned cold, and his eyes swept sharply to Mia’s face, “Woman, don’t be so smug! Since when did it become your turn to comfort me!”

“Don’t you feel helpless when you can’t even get along with your family with such a stern face all day?” Seeing Asher’s lack of appreciation, the glimmer of tenderness that had just welled up in Mia vanished in the blink of an eye.

Asher’s sharp gaze shot to Mia, his voice icy, “It’s not too late for you to understand who you are before you come and say that to me!”

Just as he finished his sentence, he heard a voice interject, “First time Older Brother has taken the initiative to bring back a woman, I’ll have to see who it really is.”

Inserted between the two, with a bright smile, who is it but Liam Jun, who has just returned?

“Liam, you misunderstood, she’s just Asher’s pet, not Asher’s girlfriend.” Seeing Liam Jun’s misunderstanding, Leena hurriedly interjected and said.

“Say one less word and no one will treat you like a mute!” Asher spoke coldly before Mia could speak.

Seeing Asher defend Mia, Liam Jun’s eyes flashed a bright light underneath, followed by a meaningful smile, “Older brother, we haven’t seen each other for a long time, would you mind finding a place to talk to me for a while?”

“Good.” Even though he was dealing with his own brother, Asher’s words were simple and clear, heading straight for a corner.

I don’t know if it was Mia’s fault, but she always felt that Liam Jun smiled at her meaningfully before he left, and the smile contained a lot of meanings.

After the two of them brothers had left, Riina wrapped her arms around her chest with a sneer on her face and a gleam of grim hatred in her eyes, “I just realized that you’re not a simple woman, to get Asher in to bring you to the party, I have to say that you’re really good at what you do.”

In response to her scrutiny, Mia stood naturally and let her gawk at her, her eyes smiling as she said lightly, “Miss Lai, Asher says you’re her girlfriend, yet you bring me to a party like this, don’t you feel anything yet? Or, are you simply used to this kind of thing?”

“You …” Hearing her words, Riina’s face immediately changed drastically, a delicate face green and red, “Mia, do you think the Jun family thing is so easy to enter? As long as there is grandpa, sooner or later, I will be the only recognized young grandmother of the Jun family, just dream on!”

Seeing that Li Na was clearly lacking in strength, Mia slightly hooked her lips, “Since Miss Li is so sure, then why did she come to intimidate me? Isn’t it true that a woman like me is never in Miss Lai’s sights?”

“You … won’t let you into the Jun family gates anyway, grandpa! Just give up your heart! I’ll get grandpa to throw you out!” Riina’s face was green and red, colorful and fiercely wonderful.

Hearing her words, Mia frowned, “Miss Li, did you misunderstand one thing, when did I say that I want to enter the Jun family’s door?”

“And why exactly do you keep pestering Asher about it?” Lena was confused but still full of caution. Anything that could stand in the way of her future with Asher was not something she would take lightly!

Seeing Riina’s confused face, Mia moved in her heart and deliberately said without moving her voice, “Even if I tell you about this matter, Miss Ri won’t be able to help much.”

“You haven’t said anything yet, so how do you know I can’t help? I’ll promise you anything if you’ll leave Asher!” Mia’s words had aroused a great deal of curiosity in Riina.

In her eyes, all Mia wants is nothing more than money.

Mia was about to speak when she saw Asher approaching, smiled faintly, and lowered her voice to say to Leena, “When I want to tell you, I will naturally tell you!”

“You …” Riina’s face was blue with anger, but there was nothing she could do about Mia, her chest trembling violently with anger cursing out of turn, “You shameless woman!”

Mia tsked out and gently clapped her hands and said, “Miss Lai, you’re so high and mighty, but that’s all you have. I think, between us, it’s better for you to ask Master Jun, I can’t make the decision!”

“Don’t think I don’t know what you’re from!” Riina’s face turned blue with anger, “Which woman like you who came out of the orphanage is not a villain who sees money. I’m afraid you’re staying by Asher’s side for his money because you’re so desperate …”

“Say that again!” The smile on Mia’s face instantly disappeared, a layer of frost floated to the bottom of her cool eyes, that icy sight shot at Riina’s body, speaking in the same icy tone as Asher’s, slowly closing in on Riina.

Seeing her approaching steps, Lena couldn’t help but take a step back and swallowed, “I said you’re …”

The icy look and face, the eyes without the slightest warmth, made Lina swallow back the words that followed hard.

This woman is scary!

Mia gave her a cold look and bent down, playing with the long strands of her hair in her hands, a cold smile on her lips, “Remember this, don’t mess with me if you have nothing to do, I don’t want to marry Asher, you’re looking at the wrong enemy.”

To an outsider, the two seemed to be intimately whispering, and only Lina’s face gradually turned pale beyond recognition.

After saying that, Mia slowly got up, still with a faint smile on her face, and twisted to look at Asher, who was standing behind them.

Asher, however, looked to Riina and slowly held out his hand, his voice bland, “Grandfather commanded that for the first dance, I dance with you!”

After those words, a hard emotion rose up in his heart; was he explaining this to Mia beside him?

But why did he have to explain to this woman! Was he afraid that this woman would misunderstand something? Damn it, since when did he care about this woman’s feelings!

“Asher, I knew I was still your favorite person! And I’m the only one worthy of you… Okay, let’s go dance!” Giving Mia a smug look, Riina wrapped herself around Asher like a snake.

The people around looked at Mia, then with a few disdain and contempt. Mia faintly sighed, went to bring a glass of red wine by herself, and came to the balcony of the villa.

With a tall glass in her hand, Mia leaned lazily on the cream-colored railing and exhaled a slow, stifled breath, her big, soulful eyes sweeping down the hall to the group of well-dressed people who kept exchanging pleasantries.

A mock smile crept onto her face as she lifted the tall glass and eased the bright red liquid down her throat.

The red wine had a faint scent that soothed Mia’s mood slightly when a familiar voice rang in her ear, “What are you doing here alone with a mulled wine?”

Asher?

Mia quickly twisted her head and not surprisingly saw a face that seemed like a perpetual iceberg, and who was it but Asher!

But a strange thought suddenly rushed through Mia’s mind about the Asher in front of her!

This Asher in front of him was not Asher! Although, he had the exact same face as Asher and even changed into the exact same clothes!
