The CEO’s Pet Cat

At night, all is silent.

Mia lay alone on the big soft bed, thinking back on what she had seen today, her eyes closed in distress, her stunning face filled with dullness and numbness and, well, deep hurt.

The words of Grandpa Jun kept filling my mind: you get out of Asher’s side now or I’ll have the deal between you two published to the public, in disrepute you don’t presume to stay by my grandson’s side …

Originally, she had held out a glimmer of hope that Asher would keep her around.

A bitter smile spread across the corners of Mia’s mouth at the thought, and she forgot that she was just one of Asher’s pets. That Asher would choose to stay away was already something she expected, wasn’t it? Besides, all of Asher’s actions had said it all a long time ago.

He, too, now wants her to leave!

But why, after understanding all this, did her heart still sting so hard? She had no choice now, the only way she could have a peaceful life was to leave here.

In fact, even if Grandpa Jun doesn’t threaten her, there’s no way she can stay, because, one of her hearts has gone all the way to Asher! Since she’s in love with him, she can’t be calm as usual when she sees him hovering around other women.

It wasn’t what Asher wanted, and it wasn’t what she wanted, and she couldn’t stand by and watch Asher break her heart into a thousand pieces without any way to save herself.

Mia slowly opened her eyes and took a deep breath, a different kind of determination under her eyes.

Now that she’s decided to give up, she’s going to leave with no regrets, even if she loses badly in the realm of love, but she’s not going to just leave, she’s going to tell Asher her feelings and then just forget about this man for good and return to her own good life.

Having made up her mind, Mia quickly ran downstairs, “Where’s Asher?”

The butler looked in the direction of the guest room on the second floor with difficulty and said coyly, “The young master is in the guest room …”

Without waiting for the butler to finish, Mia quickly ran for the second floor.

The butler’s mind cried out, and to his chagrin, the butler chased her up to the second floor, hoping to stop Mia before she reached it.

However, when she waited until she reached the room on the second floor, she saw Mia standing frozen in the doorway of the guest room, a smiling face brushed white as she stared deathly into the room.

The door to the room was half hidden, Asher and Leena were in the room, and an ambiguous atmosphere permeated the entire room.

Mia stood in the doorway, her gaze frozen, as Leena’s provocative gaze met the woman standing in the doorway, while Asher had anger lurking under his eyes, clearly upset at being disturbed.

“Miss Luo, let’s go down …,” the housekeeper advised with even more trepidation as he looked awkwardly at the three men, especially when he saw Asher’s unpleasant gaze.

Asher’s beady eyes fixed on the pale Mia in the doorway, and then with a sharp look at the butler on the side, “You, the butler, are becoming more and more ignorant of the rules, to let anyone come to the second floor!”

Mia’s face, in an instant, went pale without a trace of blood!

Shaken by the scene before her, Mia, seeing Asher’s expressionless face, her mind filled with nothing but the shame of being played with at this moment, looked to the two men in pain, rolling tears welling up in her eyes.

Not that he didn’t see her reaction, a glint of pity crossed Asher’s eyes, but it was fleeting and he just looked at her coldly.

Mia closed her eyes, trying to tune in to her raging and tumbling emotions, the two hands hanging at her side clenched into fists, and then slowly loosened them after a while, and when she opened her eyes, the only thing that filled the bottom of her eyes was the coldness, and the excitement was instantly smoothed out.

Without the slightest ripple in his gaze, he looked quietly at the man, and his calm, ice-like voice reached his ears, “Please get dressed, I’ll wait for you in the living room and have a word with you.”C0pyright © 2024 Nôv)(elDrama.Org.

After saying that, her figure disappeared at the end of the second floor, the butler tightened his brow as he watched the back that slowly walked down the stairs, a pang of worry rose in his heart, such a calm Mia was very different, it gave him a feeling that he couldn’t say.

The man sitting on the bed took in her calm demeanor, an annoyed look leaping to his cold eyes, and his wide palms couldn’t help but clench together fiercely.

This damn woman, how could she be so calm, shouldn’t she be crying and screaming? What the hell was he in her heart, didn’t she love him, then how come there was no anger at all, her icy demeanor was rather like she was mocking him.

Riina was of course full of displeasure at being suddenly interrupted, seeing Asher’s annoyed look, she thought Asher must be angry at being interrupted as well and smiled flirtatiously, “Asher, don’t pay any attention to her, let’s continue shall we?”

Unfortunately, this charming and delicate voice had no effect at all on Asher at this moment, he stood up coldly and pushed the full-body vacuum of Lina away coldly with a wave of his big palm.

Asher grimaced and quickly got out of bed, fishing his shirt off the floor and pulling it over himself, not even looking at Leena from start to finish, and when he was fully dressed, he didn’t hesitate to stride towards the door.

“Asher, how can you do this, how can you do this to me!” Seeing Asher’s unusual coldness, Leena shouted undeterred.

“Keep a good eye on this woman for me.” Asher didn’t even turn his head back, just barked a cold command to the butler, leaving a cold back.

The butler nodded respectfully, then glanced at Leena, who was still in the room, and closed the door gently behind her. The butler stood in the doorway, he wouldn’t let the woman interrupt Asher and Mia’s conversation.

Mia, in the living room, sat motionless on the couch, her face pale, but her eyes were calm. She didn’t even react when she heard Asher’s approaching footsteps.

“I’m here, just tell me what you want.” Forcing down the pity that rose in his heart, Asher tried to sound as emotionless as possible.

It was then that Mia looked up and saw Asher, who was slowly sitting down in front of her, sweeping him lightly, taking a sip from the cup of tea on the coffee table, and waiting until he was firmly seated across from her before she lifted her eyes, her bland eyes fixed on his.

Seeing Mia’s bland eyes, Asher inexplicably felt a surprising panic in his heart, the Mia in front of him, too bland and calm, such a Mia made him feel scared.

He forced himself to calm down and leaned idly on the couch.

Mia looked at him steadily and managed to suppress the stirring in her heart, forced herself to calm down, took a deep breath and gathered the courage to say the words that had been brewing in her heart for a long time, “I want to leave!”

As soon as the four words came out of the buckle, Asher, who was drinking coffee across the room, his upright body stiffened, and the coffee in his hand almost spilled out of his cup. Lifting his dark eyes sharply, he looked fixedly at Mia across the table.

Though it had been the outcome he had hoped for, his heart fluttered violently again when Mia actually said the word leave, and the suffocating feeling instantly overwhelmed him.

Damn it, what the hell is wrong with him?

A little pause, he only then will feel hot coffee cup to place on the coffee table, cold eyes stared at the opposite woman, “you can think well, if you stay by my side then there is still enjoy endless material life, even if I get married you are still my pet, but if you leave now, you can only get temporary girlfriend money, about the other aspects of you won’t get a dime, you …”

“No need.” Mia’s icy voice cut right through his words, her cold eyes shooting straight into Asher’s, “I’ll only take what I’m owed, I’m not interested in anything else as far as that goes, I just need a word from you to let me go.”

The categorical coldness made Asher feel a breathless squeeze from his heart, the fingers holding the cup whitened slightly, his cold eyes instantly clouded over, even his icy voice lowered, “Are you sure?”

This woman left him so untouched?

Hearing his rhetorical question, Mia inhaled and looked at him with bemused eyes, “Sure, I have my things packed and I’ll be leaving tomorrow.”

After saying that, she didn’t even look at Asher’s gloomy face as she straightened up from the couch and straightened her back towards her room.

Looking across the table at the still steaming coffee, Asher’s palm, flat on the arm of the couch, slowly clenched into a fist, his cold eyes filled with a look of gloom and anger.

Mia had just walked into her room when she saw Grandpa Jun walking slowly into the living room, supported by Jun Haotian. A well-dressed Lina, seeing Grandpa Jun arrive, had a winning smile on her delicate face.

Nice, as Asher was leaving, she called Grandpa Jun quickly, she wanted to make a clean break, once and for all, between Asher and Mia.

Now that Grandpa Jun had arrived, she had nothing more to fear and eased down the stairs and sat down intimately next to Asher.

“What are you doing here?” Seeing the unexpected arrival of Grandpa Jun and the others, Asher’s stern gaze swept over Riina, his voice unusually cold.

Grandpa Jun said grimly, “Asher, if I don’t come, will you spare that woman?”
