The CEO’s Pet Cat

Inside Asher’s room.

Lily hesitated for half a day before finally knocking on Asher’s room, only to see Asher lying on his bed with a stony face, his dark eyes fixed on the ceiling.

“Mom, what are you doing here?” Seeing Lily come in, Asher then sat up, his voice taking on a coldness that wasn’t usually there, “You wanted to question me too didn’t you?”

The only person in Jun’s family who could make his heart go soft was Lily.

Lily sat on the couch, a pair of beautiful eyes tenderly looking at her son, shook her head and said softly, “Asher, I just came to ask you if Miss Luo is doing well?”

Asher paused.

There was a long pause before Asher came back to his senses, his dark eyes locked on Lily as he spoke slowly, “Mom, I thought that you wanted me to marry Lena just as much as my grandfather thought.”

“Ugh!” Lily sighed softly and said slowly, “Asher, I know that there are a lot of forced hardships in this family. Your grandfather and Lena’s grandfather are old friends, so …”

Without waiting for her to finish, Asher shook his head and his tone turned as cold as usual again, “I’m afraid that’s not the only reason why Grandpa is hell bent on me marrying Lena, is it? He’s hell bent on me marrying Leena, except that it would save us so much effort!”

“Asher, you’re right, your grandfather has this intention. If our two families form a marriage and join forces, many things can be solved without much effort. Your grandfather is old, he has always been at ease with the company, you know …” Lily’s voice, gradually took on a helpless tone.

The world of the Jun family was built by Grandpa Jun, and Jun Haotian’s character was never suitable for managing the company, so Asher started to take over the company at a very young age. However, Grandpa Jun had always been ambitious and now, seeing that his health was getting worse, he naturally wanted to take care of everything for Asher.

Now the easiest, most direct route is for the Jun family and the Lai family to join forces!

Plus, Riina likes Asher too, which makes it even more satisfying for Grandpa Jun, and this thing will go smoother.

Isn’t it?

“Mom, doesn’t Grandpa still believe in me? Do I still need to rely on others for help now?” Not waiting for Lily to finish, Asher coldly picked up his mouth.

Seeing that she had hit Asher’s sore spot again, Lily sighed softly and asked in a soft voice, “Asher, I didn’t come here to press you about this. I came over just to ask you, how is Miss Luo doing now?”

“Mom, she disappeared five years ago, and didn’t you know that?” Asher’s expression was cold and he dropped his eyes.

“Asher, I’m your mother, don’t I know your mind? I’m afraid that the person who can make you lose your mind is Miss Luo, right?” Lily looked at Asher steadily, her voice soft, “I also watched the news, in fact, she is not some Miss Leng, but Miss Luo, right?”

Jerking his head up, Asher looked straight at Lily, his voice taking on a tremor he hadn’t even noticed, “Mom, how do you know she’s the woman?”

“Alas, child, no matter how much a person changes, as long as she still loves you, her eyes will not change.” Lily’s voice was unusually soft, “Although I haven’t met Miss Luo with my own eyes, I can be sure that she still loves you! She’s not condensing, she’s Mia!”

There was a silence.

Asher thought about Claude’s words, about the pictures he had shown himself.

That woman, is she still in love with him now?

“Mom, she won’t even acknowledge me now, she treats me like a complete stranger now!” After a long silence, Asher finally spoke, his voice carrying an uncontrollable tremor.

Maybe, finally, he can open up.

He had always been tough and cold on the surface, and now he could finally be less cold and strong in front of Lily, and finally pour out his grievances.

Lily looked at her son lovingly and said compassionately, “Asher, you have to know how much aggravation a woman who still loves you has to suffer to pretend she doesn’t know you? I’m not going to lie, I love that Mia girl, at least, she’s more worthy of your love than Lina!”RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

“Suffered a lot of aggravation?” Asher murmured repeating Lily’s words, for the first time there was haste and unease in his dark eyes, “I know, she’s suffered a lot, even the fact that she’s carrying my baby is my fault … I’m sorry!”

“Asher, what are you going to do now?” Asher’s face was full of guilt, making Lily’s heart full of love and helplessness. She knew Asher’s temper and knew that he had always been cold in nature and easily refused to reveal his heart. It was also because of this that he was more bitter in his heart because he loved a woman.

Asher raised a pair of dark eyes, his eyes full of helplessness and pain, “Right now, the only thing I can do is to wait for Grandpa to finish his surgery first. Although grandpa has never liked me much, I can’t … Liam leaving us has hit grandpa too hard for me to …”

“Ugh, it’s the only way to go now too.” Lily nodded gently and looked up at Asher, “Mom promises you that I won’t stop you from going to Miss Luo as long as your grandfather is done with his surgery.”

“Mom, thank you!” Straightening up, Asher’s voice gradually regained its blandness and coldness, “I’ve never been serious before, but, this time I am, and I will never allow her to get away from me again!”

Asher, now, is back to the cold, determined Asher of old!

There is absolutely nothing he can’t do as long as he is determined to do it!

“Asher, Mom came to you because she doesn’t want you to sacrifice your own happiness just because of what’s going on with the company. I know that you will grasp things for yourself later. For now, it’s better to wait for your grandfather to have his surgery first!” Standing up, Lily’s voice remained kind and soft.

Witnessing Lily’s departure, Master Jun out a pair of dark eyes flashed with an unusual determination and coldness.

In the following days, nothing unusual happened, even away from Lina all seemed to be much more peaceful, every time even to visit Grandpa Jun, rarely bother Asher, seemed unusually well behaved and understanding.

Perhaps because Asher and Lena didn’t have another accident, Grandpa Jun was in a much better mood, and with Asher’s arrangement, he finally agreed to have the surgery this week.

“Asher, when is Miss Leng coming over?” On the day of the surgery, Jun Haotian looked at the time and finally couldn’t help but ask.

Although Grandpa Jun agreed to do the surgery, he insisted on arranging the surgery at his own villa. Knowing that he couldn’t argue with the old man, Grandpa Jun Hao Tian had to agree to his request and arrange the operation room specifically.

The original appointment was for the operation to be done at eleven o’clock at noon, but seeing that it was already ten o’clock at noon and Mia still hadn’t arrived, even though Jun Haotian had a bland personality, he was finally a bit anxious now.

“Dad, something might have happened to her and that’s why she’s late, I’ll call and rush her.” As planned, Mia was almost an hour and a half late, and a vague feeling of unease rose in Asher’s mind.

But when he calls Mia, he finds out that her phone doesn’t answer at all!

Asher paused for a few seconds before calling the Shengshi Group again, the secretary there had a sweet voice, “The president went out a long time ago, saying that he had to prepare for a surgery and all of today’s schedule was cancelled!”

Not knowing what was said again over there, Asher froze.

According to the secretary, Mia had arrived at the villa very early in the morning and had cancelled a day for it!

But why is Mia’s phone not working right now?

After a long pause, Asher finally asked his secretary for Nangong Man’s phone number and dialed Nangong Man’s cell phone, “Mr. Nangong, your president promised to come for the surgery, why hasn’t he come now? Are you guys together now?”

“What? She hasn’t passed by now?” Nangong asked with a hint of panic in her voice, “That can’t be, she left two hours ago …”

“You’re not together?” Nangong asked in a panic that caused an inexplicable pang of worry to rise in Asher’s mind.

“Condensation arranged for me to do some shopping, and said I should just be at the villa at half past ten. I know that she has always been more … alert when it comes to surgery,” Nangong asked, as the panic in his voice became more and more obvious the faster he spoke.

Asher didn’t even listen to what Nangong asked later, his mind was a jumble, Mia wasn’t even with Nangong!

What the hell’s going on?

Where is Mia now?

“I’m rushing to your house right now, I’ll be there soon!” The voice of Nangong asked came from the other side of the phone, anxious and with a strong concern.

His anxiety is definitely not faked, he’s not fooling Asher!

Asher hangs up the phone distraught, an unsuppressed anxiety deep inside him as he walks around the living room in annoyance, his mind filled with worry for Mia!

“Asher, grandpa’s all set, when’s the doctor coming?” Riina walked over and looked around a bit asking, “I thought we said eleven o’clock, it’s already ten thirty and she’s still not here, what a big rack!”

“Xiao Na, Dr. Leng might have something delayed …,” Seeing Asher’s face look wrong, Jun Haotian shook his head at Leena, signaling her not to add fuel to the fire now.

Riina, however, did not relent and continued, “Is Grandpa’s surgery a joke, she always has to prepare for it, and now she’s actually so late, I think it must be on purpose!”

“That’s enough!” Seeing that Leena had to ramble on and on, Asher finally couldn’t hold back any longer and growled lowly.

This woman, what else would she do but provoke?

“Asher, I’m also doing it for grandpa’s own good, why are you angry …” Riina was very aggrieved and muttered, complaining in a small voice, “Even if something was delayed, shouldn’t you have said something about it? ”

Her words sent a shiver down Asher’s spine.
