The CEO’s Pet Cat

Lina’s face immediately turned like a trick, full of aggression as she flung herself into the middle-aged beauty’s arms, pointing straight at Mia and saying with infinite aggression, “Auntie, this woman she bullied me!”

“Yo, I’d like to see who dares to bully our little Na.” The middle-aged beauty smiled lightly and said half-truthfully. With a pair of beautiful eyes, she was already looking towards Mia.

Mia smiled faintly and took a step towards the outside, a scene she just couldn’t stand to watch.

“Are you being weak-minded? How dare you leave before I even say yes?” She had just taken a step when she saw Lina righteously blocking the doorway, “Take off the clothes on you and I’ll let you go!”

“This lady, I bought this dress, are you taking yourself too seriously by making me take it off for you in public?” Helplessly looking up at the arrogant and domineering Lina, Mia was almost on the verge of having her last ounce of patience consumed, “Or, are you both planning to make me take this dress off together?”

Her gaze, sweeping over Lina and the middle-aged beauty.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

Riina was about to say something else, but she saw the middle-aged beauty gesture the door with her eyes and said to Mia with a faint smile, “This young lady has spoken out of turn, please forgive me if I have offended you just now, Xiao Na!”

“Aunty, you …” Riina looked towards the door as an afterthought, her eyes snapping wide at the sight of a grim-faced Asher in the doorway, “Asher!”

Mia looked at Lena, who had flung herself into Asher’s arms with a stunned expression, and a surprisingly uncomfortable feeling of despondency welled up in her heart.

Only the middle-aged beauty looked at Asher and then at Mia, who had hung her head to one side, and there was an unexplained smirk in the bottom of her eyes.

“Mom, when did she get back?” Asher pushed Leena out of his arms with some impatience and walked straight to the middle-aged beauty’s side.

Lena, however, relentlessly took Asher’s arm and said in a delicate voice, “Asher, I’m your girlfriend, don’t you miss me?”

Now it makes Mia completely dumbfounded that Leena is actually Asher’s girlfriend and this middle-aged beauty is his mother!

After a slight pause, Mia walked outside without a word, the tide of aggression in her heart almost overwhelming her entire being.

After all is said and done, she’s the only one who’s an outsider!

Jerking away from Leena, who was snuggled up next to him, anxiety swept under Asher’s eyes as he yanked Mia back and said coldly, “Did I give you permission to leave?”

“Asher, it’s obvious I’m redundant here, so why are you letting me stay?” Steadying herself, Mia raised her eyes to look fixedly at Asher.

Under Lily’s eyes, the smirk seemed more pronounced, completely ignoring Lina’s disbelief on the sidelines.

“Auntie, look at Asher, he’s actually …” exclaims Lena as she stares incredulously into a pair of carefully manicured, beautiful eyes.

“Mom, she’s Mia,” coldly clamping down on Mia, Asher yanked her to Lily without pity, “I’ll be taking her to the party this year!”

“Asher, no, I’m the one who’s your girlfriend and you’re bringing this woman to this!” Lily hadn’t even uttered a word when Lena bared her eyes.

Everyone knows how important the June family’s annual house party is, and being taken to it by Asher is tantamount to being recognized by him.

That’s exactly why Riina had made a special trip back from America, only to find out that Asher was bringing another woman to the party!

“Mom, it’s a deal, we’re leaving!” Simply ignoring Leena’s hysteria, Asher pulled an equally dazed Mia towards the outside.

Riina stopped in front of the two and said with red eyes, “Asher, I’ve only been out of the country for a year, when did your tastes actually change and you actually started favoring this turnip greens?”

“Nana!” Lily’s face, gradually sank, and her voice gradually took on a stern tone.

Already overcome with anger, Lena couldn’t even notice the change on Lily’s face and continued, “Asher, I know you’re a man and know that there are a lot of women who desperately want to get close to you. I understand you and won’t take this to heart.”

“Lena, what exactly are you trying to say?” Asher asked lightly with a slight frown.

The cold tone made Leena wince and her voice dropped suddenly, “Asher, am I still your girlfriend then?”

“When did I ever say that you weren’t my girlfriend?” Slightly curling his lips, Asher replied coldly.

Everyone was stunned, and Mia looked at Asher with a dumbfounded look of disbelief. A great uneasiness swept through her mind.

“So, then she’s …” Pointing at Mia, Riina’s voice took on an uncertain tone, but she couldn’t help the hint of ecstasy under her eyes.

She had known for a long time that Asher didn’t take his feelings with other women seriously!

Asher didn’t even look at Mia and replied coldly, “She’s just my pet! What, even my personal life is your business?”

“Asher!” Lily spoke up to stop it, but couldn’t stop Asher from stabbing at Mia like a rapier with those words.

Mia’s face went pale and her body couldn’t help but sway, but she desperately tried to keep herself on her feet, but it was like something had hit her hard in her heart, and she couldn’t breathe from the pain.

This man, he just treats himself like a plaything!

Even though she had known this for a long time, she couldn’t help but expect it when Lina asked her who she was just now.

She now realizes that the man beside her is, without compromise, a demon, and that she had the audacity to expect anything from him, which in the end was nothing more than a self-inflicted humiliation!

“Is that really true?” Lena asked in a low voice as if she still couldn’t believe it.

Without waiting for Asher to speak, Mia took a deep breath and answered before him, “Yes, Miss Lai, I’m just Master Jun’s pet. You don’t have to worry, when he gets tired of playing with me sometime, he’ll naturally kick me away!”

Lena’s eyes showed ecstasy.

Asher’s cold gaze, cast uneasily on the pale Mia, who, of her own accord, had admitted to being his pet?

But her tone of voice, why did it sound so disturbing?

Only Lily, her eyes scanned over Asher and Mia’s, a wistful look in the bottom of her eyes.

“I knew I’d always be the only one worthy of standing next to Asher, Asher, don’t you think?” After receiving a satisfactory answer, Leena smiled delicately and took Asher’s arm, “Asher, I’ve fallen for that dress she’s wearing, you tell her to take it off and give it to me!”

Lily’s face gradually turned ugly as she said in a deep voice, “Xiao Na, you can’t go too far with things!”

“Okay, I’m going to take it off.” Before Asher could say anything, Mia pulled her feet up and headed for the fitting room.

Asher watched her slim, thin back, and a hint of unease swept across the bottom of his eyes. This woman, well behaved to excess, really disturbed him.

It didn’t take long to see Mia had walked out and handed the clothes to Leena, “Miss Le, here are your clothes.”

“You’re still smart, I’ll let you off the hook this time!” Riina proudly took the clothes, a triumphant smile all over her face.

It seems that Asher really didn’t have this woman in his sights.

“Xiao Na, well, it suddenly occurred to me that there’s something else, so you can accompany me back first!” Lily, who had a stony face, finally spoke to Lina.

Lena, though reluctantly, had to act very well behaved and accompanied Lily out, asking suspiciously, “Aunty, don’t you think that it would be better if I stayed with Asher now?”

“Na, leave things to chance, don’t go too far.” Gesturing for the driver to drive, Lily faintly closed her eyes.

Riina was so arrogant and domineering that she really had a headache.

Riina muttered discontentedly, “Auntie, didn’t you see that woman’s look of poverty, she must have taken a fancy to the Jun family’s property, otherwise …”

“Lena, not all people, are like you think!” Before she could finish her sentence, she was coldly interrupted by Lily.

Riina’s mouth dropped open, and when she saw that Lily had no intention of speaking again, she had to shut up resentfully.

But Mia followed Asher into the car without a word, a small face so pale that there was no trace of blood, but her eyes were unusually bright.

She didn’t with notice that her palm had long been pricked to the touch with nails, for, the shame she had suffered today was far more painful than the physical.

Asher, the cold, arrogant man, didn’t leave her an ounce of self-respect, even in front of everyone.

So what concerns does she have?

Riina’s taunt, Asher’s reply, echoed in Mia’s ears again, causing her to bite her lip so tightly that she had bitten blood from her delicate lips not yet aware of it.

“Tomorrow night, you’re going to the party with me and I’ll buy you the rest of the dress.” After a long silence, Asher suddenly spoke.

There was something in his voice that he seemed to be trying to suppress.

Releasing her clenched hands, Mia’s face faded to calm as she nodded lightly and said, “Good.”

Her answer and attitude were too calm, yet calm enough to be very disturbing.

“There was another half silence … today, and Asher seemed to want to say something, but didn’t seem to know how to speak.

Mia interrupted him and said lightly, “It’s nothing, I understand my status, Miss Lai is your real girlfriend, what I did is what I should do, as long as Miss Lai is happy.”

The car came to a screeching halt!

Mia was unprepared and almost hit the window of the car in front of her, and she looked at Asher next to her suspiciously.

“Damn it, what are you talking about?” A pair of dark eyes looked coldly at Mia, a cluster of fire running underneath them. When had he ever, ever let this woman get so meek that she didn’t have an ounce of principle?

Mia looked him straight in the eyes quietly and asked faintly, “Master Jun, did I do wrong?”

“You’re not happy with me.” Asher’s voice was cold, devoid of the slightest warmth or emotion, yet it sent an inexplicable chill down the spine.
