The CEO’s Pet Cat

Knowing that what Claude said was true, Mia bit her lip tightly and didn’t speak again.

Claude took the opportunity to say, “Mia , I’ve known Asher for many years, and it’s the first time I’ve seen him so attached to a woman, even if he had a thousand things wrong with him, he would have regretted it long ago. For the past five years, he has been looking for you everywhere and has never forgotten you, is it possible, that you still can’t forgive him for all this?”

“So what you’re saying is that I should feel very honored?” Mia coldly tugged at the corner of her mouth, pulling out a sneer, “Some things can be forgiven and some things can’t, Asher was overbearing and selfish and did so many things to wrong me, there’s really no way I can forgive him!”

Claude was silent for a long time before he finally spoke, “Mia , in fact, I know you love Asher too, but because of the child matter, you have been refusing to forgive Asher, right? However, five years ago, I felt that the incident was very strange, and even after five years have passed, I still find it intriguing. If it could be proven that Asher didn’t do that incident, would you be willing to forgive him?”

“I don’t know, I really don’t.” Mia smiled sadly and shook her head, “Five years have passed, and my heart is so full of hatred and resentment towards him that I don’t know if I’ll ever be able to let go. It’s like these hurts are carved into my heart, how can they be easily erased.”

Mia’s words, with all their gravity, left Claude at a loss for a moment as to how best to persuade.

Looking up at Claude, Mia’s tone was very heavy, “Claude, I know what Asher is trying to do with this, and I know you’re sure to come. But, I’m telling you very clearly, if he helps me, I’ll take it as forgiveness, and if he tries to make me promise to stay with him on that condition, you tell him I can’t do it!”NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.

She can’t do it!

How could she forget everything from five years ago, the humiliation, the pain, the hatred, the despair and disappointment, how could she forget everything? She couldn’t do it, couldn’t pretend that none of these things had happened when they clearly had, couldn’t stay by Asher’s side when her heart was still full of hate!

“Mia , is there really no more room for negotiation? I see, Asher is serious this time, you …” asked Claude with a last glimmer of hope as his heart was filled with hopelessness.

“Claude, this is between the two of us, let us both decide. You’re right, I’m not the same person I was five years ago and will never again face humiliation or Asher’s persecution without resistance. You go back and tell Asher, no need to paraphrase, just tell him my words, exactly as they are.” After saying those words, Mia seemed to have aged many years at once.

Some things, the past is the past, even if you try to salvage it, there will be a rift. In that case, don’t force it to be together, and maybe have some thoughts of each other.

Claude was silent for a long time and finally stood up and looked deeply at Mia, “Mia , I respect your choice and will tell Asher your words as they are. however, I am an outsider, listen to me, an outsider, sometimes, don’t be blinded by the so called hate, be quiet and listen to your heart. ”

After saying that, and giving Mia a deep look, Claude finally walked out.

When Claude walked out, Mia, who had been holding strong, finally fell limp in her seat as if her whole body had been drained of strength.

Was what she just said really her true intentions, then why did she feel her heart hurting,

“Mia , I see Claude has left, how did you guys talk, how did things go, did he agree?” When Claude left, Nangong asked and Director Wang immediately walked in with a nervous face asking for the results.

Director Wang also followed up by asking, “Yes, yes, President, what does it mean to the Vice President, what about Shengshi?”

Ignoring Director Wang, Mia slowly lifted her head and looked fixedly at Nangong asked, “Nangong asked, I asked Claude to pass on everything I thought to him. Although I don’t want to let Shengshi fall into Asher’s hands, I don’t want to force myself to agree to his demands either. Nangong asked, do you think that Grandpa will blame me for this, that I was too selfish for my own sake.”

“Director Wang, there are still some things left for me to talk to the president, so you’d better go out and get busy with your own.” Turning his head to look at the miserable looking Director Wang, Nangong asked and faintly instructed.

Although Director Wang had a hundred reluctances, he had no reason to stay and had to leave unhappily.

Only after Director Wang left did Nangong ask to sit beside Mia, gently holding her pair of small, plain white hands, and said in a soft voice, “I said it just now, just do your best, don’t push yourself. I believe that if grandpa knew about it, he wouldn’t blame you. Shengshi’s group can’t let you sacrifice your own happiness to achieve.”

“Nangong asked, I know you will definitely help me, right?” After contemplating for some time, Mia suddenly raised her head, and her eyes had an eagerness that was very different from the disheveled one just now, “I have thought of a method that will save Shengshi, and will also put Asher out of his mind.”

Seeing Mia’s eager look, Nangong asked with his heart full of pity, holding her small hand tightly and nodding heavily.

After three days have passed.

Asher’s slender hands tightly gripped the remote control, a pair of black eyes fixedly looking at Mia and Nangong asked who looked affectionate and loving on the screen, his eyes almost bursting with fire, but a ghostly coldness permeated his body.

Presented on the screen, is Mia and Namgung asking, in front of a group of reporters, admitting that they are married and have received a marriage license some time recently!

How dare she!

How dare she marry another man!

The remote control in his hand was heaved to the floor and Asher’s eyes were already filled with an unsuppressed fury, “Say, what the hell is going on here?”

“Asher, take it easy for a second, do you seriously believe they’re married?” Seeing Asher’s loss of temper, Claude shook his head helplessly, it was only when the always calm and aloof best friend would finally lose his temper one day that he felt a little more affectionate.

Asher froze and looked up at Claude, asking mechanically, “Claude, what do you mean by that? You mean, they’re not even married?”

“Asher, don’t you think it’s too much of a coincidence that they suddenly announced they were already married right after we announced we were going to acquire Centurion?” Claude sighed helplessly, “Asher, you’ve just lost your most basic judgment because you care!”

They had long arranged eyes and ears in Shengshi to monitor Mia’s every move and to keep Mia’s whereabouts reported. Other than the last time at the airport when Nangong asked to announce his wedding date with Mia, the two didn’t make any intimate moves.

That means they can’t even get married!

Thinking of this, Asher’s cold and iron face finally eased, and his voice gradually took on a warmth, “This acquisition of Shengshi was originally intended to help her take back her position as president, and even if she didn’t agree to return to my side, I wouldn’t force her, so why doesn’t she understand?”

“Asher, the way you have acted in the past, sometimes too forcefully, has scared her. To put all your thoughts to rest, she had to make the first move and get a head start …” Claude said while secretly watching Asher’s demeanor.

If there was anything unusual about Asher, Claude wouldn’t hesitate to bolt out the door, because what he just said was too “treacherous” for Asher!

Thankfully, Asher didn’t overreact, just tightened his good-looking, thick brow, “Claude, so tell me, what exactly do I have to do to get her to forget the past and come back to me?”

For the first time, he was out of confidence.

For the first time, he would actually be in sixes and sevens.

All because of that little woman, who he loved and hated at the same time.

“Asher, five years of resentment will not forgive you easily. However, I have talked to her and feel that the biggest thing she can’t get past in her mind is the fact that she thinks you killed the child between you five years ago, if this is something you can prove you didn’t do, her resentment I believe will be mostly reduced, the rest will depend on your efforts!” After a moment of contemplation, Claude voiced his opinion.

He was an outsider and he could see that Mia still had deep feelings for Asher and wasn’t enmeshed.

Asher furrowed his thick brows and his voice immediately turned colder, “This matter, even if you don’t say anything, I will prove it to her. That murderer has been on the loose for five years now, and I will not let her off the hook this time.”

In his mind, the anomaly of five years ago came to mind.

“Asher, I’m quite worried for you right now, you’re dealing with something that could be far more complicated than you think, you must deal with it carefully and not do anything you’ll regret at any time.” Claude uttered in a deep voice.

Asher stood up and grabbed the clothes that were sitting next to the table, “Don’t worry, this matter has been on my mind for five years too, I’ll get it sorted out. Well, I have a dinner date, so I won’t keep you company, you go ahead and get busy.”

“Had a dinner date?” Claude mulled over that statement and looked up to ask, “Asher, can I ask one more question, who is this person you’re asking out? Who has this honor to have our Master Jun make it to his appointment on time?”

“Lena!” Asher spat out a name coldly before striding out of the office, leaving a pensive Claude behind.

“Could it be that Asher had begun to suspect her a long time ago? It seems that no matter what was done, no matter how secretive it was done at the time, things will eventually come out!” Looking at Asher’s departing back, Claude muttered.
