The CEO’s Pet Cat

Chapter 88 – You’re still in love with him



Nangong asked with a gloomy look and a very despondent voice, “Just now, I saw it all.”

“Don’t get me wrong, we’re talking about working together today, he’s just giving me a ride back.” Mia didn’t know why she had to explain, and it was so pale and weak.

Nangong asked without questioning or suspecting, just looking at her quietly.

The atmosphere between the two men was unusually dull.

Mia finally couldn’t help but break the dullness and said wearily, “Well, I’m tired today, so you’d better go home!”

There was another heart-pounding silence.

Mia was waiting for Nangong to leave, but Nangong didn’t have the slightest intention of leaving.

“You’re still in love with him right?” After a long silence, Nangong asked the question finally, his voice laced with a strange pain.

Ever since he saw Mia for the first time, he’s been hopelessly in love with this woman!

Five years had passed and his feelings for Mia had grown to the point of hopelessness.

He knows that Mia still has Asher in her heart, but he’s been waiting patiently for the day when Mia will forget about Asher!

But, just now, when he saw Asher bring Mia back, a part of his heart felt like something had grabbed it, hurting so badly that there was no way to relieve it.

He tried to warn himself never to push Mia to ask, or he would only put distance between the two, pushing her further away. Yet, he damn well couldn’t help but ask.

He helplessly saw that when he asked this, Mia a small face turned fiercely white beyond compare, her voice trembled slightly, “Nangong asked, this is my matter, you should not ask, okay?”

“You must still like him, or you wouldn’t have stayed with him so long or let him send you back! Don’t tell me that you’ve gone soft again!” Although he knew he shouldn’t say any more, Nangong asked, but he just couldn’t control his mouth.

Seeing Mia a small face has been snow white without a trace of blood, Nangong asked in his heart regretful to death, wanting to hug the woman in front of him to comfort properly, but can only clench a hand at a loss standing in place, chagrin looking at Mia.

“Mia , I’m sorry, it’s my fault, I shouldn’t ask you this, I shouldn’t untie your scars …” Seeing Mia’s body shaking, Nangong asked finally couldn’t help but apologize.

Damn it, hadn’t he sworn to protect this woman in front of him, how could he hurt her with his words!

At this moment, Nangong asked chagrined to death!

“Well, Nangong asked, you’d better go back, I’m fine, I’m just tired and need to get some rest.” Shaking her head wearily, Mia fell away.

It’s not that she doesn’t understand what Nangong asks of her, she just doesn’t know how to deal with it!

Five years had passed and she had thought she had forgotten all about Asher long ago, but she hadn’t expected all the strength she had built up to dissipate in an instant the moment he had forcibly kissed her!

Originally, she had never forgotten him at all!

She didn’t know how to face Nangong Man, so she had to avoid it and desperately fled, leaving Nangong Man where he was.

Looking at Mia’s hastily fleeing back, Nangong asked his heart hurting badly, but he could only stand frozen in place, the pain in his heart making him unable to move his feet.

The next day, inside the Jun family villa, Grandpa Jun indignantly threw the newspaper in his hand on the coffee table, his face blue with anger, “Bastard, why doesn’t he even know how to repent? He’s going to get married soon, and he’s still making news like this!”

Looking at the pictures of Asher and Mia kissing in the newspaper and the big story about their scandal, Jun Haotian understood Grandpa Jun’s feelings.

With a family like theirs, where almost everything is transparent and the subject of all media attention, it’s only natural that Grandpa Jun would be angry when Asher does something like this, which would have a very negative impact on the company and both families.

“Dad, you should calm down first, you just had an operation, it’s not easy to get angry.” Jun Haotian softly persuaded Grandpa Jun, “Let the young people settle their own matters, you shouldn’t worry so much about it.”

“Bastard, if I didn’t care, he could have made a mess of things!” Grandpa Jun was shaking with anger, “He’s going to get married to Lina soon, and he doesn’t even know how to avoid it.

Jun Haotian gently patted his back to smooth his breath, and softly continued to persuade, “Dad, you know Asher’s temper, he won’t change his mind easily when he decides on something, which is very much like you. Besides, he can already take charge of himself now, if you insist on interfering again, I dare not imagine what the situation will be.”

Grandpa Jun froze violently.

“Is it true what you say?” After a long pause, Grandpa Jun slowly spoke up and asked, his voice instantly almost ten years older and his tone a little weary.

He had built the world he now had and had a strong personality and was used to having everything under his control, so he was also used to being in control of his family’s lives.

Jun Haotian’s character had always been more docile, and almost everything was obedient to him. However, Jun Haotian was now actually telling him not to fall out with Asher over this matter, or else there would be serious consequences!

He could hardly believe it was coming from his son, yet he knew he was telling the truth.

Asher’s cold and decisive nature allowed him to take control of the entire company at a very young age, and in a very short period of time had already grown it into one of the top companies in the world. That kind of strength was already a lot stronger than him.

It’s not that he didn’t see it, it’s just that he didn’t want to admit it.

If he saw his ever-soft son say such things, he knew he had to think about the consequences.

Seeing that Grandpa Jun’s expression had eased, Jun Haotian nodded, “Dad, in fact, it’s hard to force the matter of relationships, even if we force the two of them together, they won’t be happy. Instead of worrying about it, it’s better to let go and let them develop on their own, don’t you think?”

Grandpa Jun looked away and didn’t say anything.

Jun Haotian knew he was still swayed and continued, “Dad, besides, although Xiao Na comes from a better background, her temperament is really not suitable with Asher. Can’t you see that, since you’re an experienced person? Or, are you still insisting on keeping your previous promise even if you can see it?”

“I’m not that confused!” Grandpa Jun sounded with a bit of anger, but not as angry as he had been a moment ago.

He also knew that Asher had suppressed his temper and obeyed him because Liam Jun’s passing had hit him too hard. If he were to fall out with Asher now, it would only bring the already almost repaired relationship between the two people to a standstill again!

“Well, Dad, you should just take care of yourself, and as for what they did, just pretend you didn’t see it!” Seeing Grandpa Jun’s tone had eased, Jun Haotian let out a long breath of relief.

“Forget it, I’m old and can’t manage anymore, he can do what he likes, I don’t care!” Lying down in anger, Grandpa Jun threw out a sentence without good grace.

Although Grandpa Jun’s face was extremely bad, Jun Haotian’s face showed joy, he knew Grandpa Jun’s temper, and it was quite good to be able to collect himself to this extent.

Not ignoring the smile on Jun Haotian’s face, Grandpa Jun threw out the words, “Jun Haotian, keep your son in check and don’t stir up any big trouble!”

“Okay, I know dad.” Tucking in the covers for Master Jun Haozi, Jun Haotian agreed in a soft voice.

Knowing that he was perfunctory, Grandpa Jun grunted coldly, twisted his head and closed his eyes, no longer paying attention to Jun Haotian.

Jun Haotian smiled helplessly and was about to say something when he saw his cell phone ringing, he looked at the caller ID, shook his head helplessly and walked out of Grandpa Jun’s room with quick steps.

“Xiao Na, calling now, what’s the matter?” Although he knew why Riina was looking for him, Jun Haotian still pretended to be unaware of it.

Lai Na cried and said, “Uncle, please control Asher, he is too much, he actually kissed that president of Shengshi Group in front of so many media, this makes me can so see people …”

“What? That bastard!” Jun Haotian pretended to be surprised, “Xiao Na, when Asher comes back, I will talk to him properly, just don’t worry!”

“Uncle, I don’t care, I’m really angry this time, I’ve said it all, he can make a scandal with anyone, just not her, woo …” Jun Haotian’s consolation made Riina even more unforgiving.

Jun Haotian forced himself to hear her out and said with impatience, “Xiao Na ah, according to reason, we shouldn’t get involved in your young people’s feelings. Sometimes, don’t just blame Asher either, shouldn’t you also think about whether there’s anything wrong with you? Well, I have to go and take care of grandpa, that’s all for now!”

Without waiting for Riina to say anything else, Jun Haotian quickly hung up the phone.

“This ugly kid, he’s caused his own love debt, and he wants me, his father, to clean up his mess!” Shaking his head helplessly, Jun Haotian had a bitter smile all over his face.

As soon as his words left his mouth, he heard Asher pick up and say, “Dad, I told you, you don’t even have to pay attention to her!”

“Ugly boy, what the hell are you going to do? There’s going to be a wedding soon, and you’re actually making this scene, what the hell is going on?” Turning his head to see Asher standing behind him, Jun Haotian asked helplessly.

Asher looked away, his voice cold, “I’m not marrying her!”

“Ugh, Asher, no matter who you marry, as long as you’re happy, your mom and I will absolutely support you.” Jun Haotian’s voice was kind, “But, no matter what, you have to do a good job in the aftermath, Dad doesn’t want to spend all day coaxing for you.”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.

Snapping his head around, Asher’s dark eyes locked on Jun Haotian, “Dad, you …”

“Alright, you don’t need to say those meaty words, I understand them all, I’ll go back to my room first, think about it!” Waving his hand, Jun Haotian twisted around and walked into his room, leaving Asher where he was.
