The CEO’s Pet Cat

Lily looked at her child reluctantly before pulling Wang Yuxin out of the wedding scene.

“Master, Madam, Master Tai has passed out!” It was moments before the Jun family couple walked out of the meeting when the driver ran up and delivered the not-so-pleasant news.

“What?” Lily’s brain gasped at the news all at once, and, perhaps from over-anxiety and impatience, she passed out!

This is great, one fainted in the car and one in his arms. Adam Jun frowned and immediately held his fainting wife and gave a wink to Wang Yuxin, “Get in the car!”

Wang Yuxin and Adam Jun helped get Lily into the car and drove straight to the hospital.

Time slipped away and Asher returned to the Jun family mansion after an unsuccessful day of searching, but it was surprisingly empty.

A knock on the door came from behind Asher. Asher stopped to pace back and forth, strode to the door, and a voice in her heart told him: it’s mia, Mia is back!

The moment he opened the door, Asher’s face stiffened. The visitor also looked apologetic.

“Did you find it?” Asher gripped Nangong’s shoulder hard, and the hope in his eyes was so strong that Nangong’s heart tightened.

How much love should be expected from such an expectation?

However, even if Nangong asked couldn’t stand it, he couldn’t stop the truth. Nangong asked avoiding Asher’s longing eyes and shook his head faintly.

Asher stiffened and stumbled a few steps, his eyes like rivers dug dry and full of dead silence.

“But don’t worry, Claude hasn’t returned yet, maybe he’ll bring back some good news.” Nangong asked as he looked at the haggard Asher with an unforgiving face, his words of comfort coming out of his mouth.

Just as Asher’s eyes were taking on a slight glow, Claude walked in with a disheveled look on his face.

“I’m sorry.” Claude didn’t dare look up to meet Claude’s gaze, head tilted to the side in a hoarse voice.

So much for Asher’s otherwise dashed hopes.

Silence, as half the silence of a sleeping night.

Suddenly Asher’s eyes glazed over and he slammed his fist down heavily on the table, storming out, “Who the hell is it!”

This yell did not matter, Nangong asked and Claude looked at each other and lowered their heads grimly. But the men who had been following behind Claude did shiver straight down.

Such an Asher is like a source of fire that burns hot whenever there is a starburst, and no one dares to mess with it.

Asher gritted his teeth, his eyes wandering to the ring on the table, his mind silently chanting, “Mia , where are you?”

Two days had passed, but it was as calm as if that incident had never happened.

“How are Mom and Grandpa doing?” Asher asked, standing with his back to the office window, his eyes listless.

Claude saw Asher’s lifeless look and let out a long sigh, sitting back in his chair, “All awake, the doctor said it was just shock, and if he rests well, he can be discharged tomorrow.”

“Hmm.” Asher lowered his head and played with the ring in his hand, his gaze dull.

“Asher, I know you’re worried about Mia . But you can’t just ignore Mia’s company because you’re worried about Mia, can you?” The seriousness in Claude’s eyes deepened a few more notches as he stared at the nearly disheveled Asher.

Although it had only been two days since Mia had disappeared, the man in front of him looked like two years had passed, and his entire body had aged extremely quickly.

Hearing the words about Mia spill out of Claude’s mouth, Asher’s dull gaze finally flooded with more than a hint.

“What happened to Centurion?” Asher gripped the ring in his hand and lifted his head, looking straight at Claude.

“Out of big trouble.” Claude was very pleased with the kind of Asher that was the only one who could overcome problems that never seemed solvable time and time again.

“Say.” Asher slipped the ring in his hand into the box and tucked it in his pocket, shoved his hands into his pants pockets, and stood up straight, watching his best friend.

“I met with Nangong today, and Nangong said that the company is in chaos because of Mia’s disappearance, and the company is now in a state of panic. The company’s finance department just found out a big loss. There are rumors that Mia has fled with a huge amount of money. Now there’s a strike at Centurion and almost all the frontline workers have stopped working. The board of directors is trying to suppress it, but it’s backfiring and getting bigger and bigger. Now Nangong asked is busy with a lot of work.”

Asher’s mouth lifted in a cold snort, knowing without saying so that it was a plant.

That Mia ran away with a lot of money? What a joke! How many eyes watched Mia being robbed from the wedding venue? Do all women in wedding dresses like to run away with huge sums of money when they get married? This is a false accusation!

Suddenly Asher’s expression lagged and relaxed. Since someone had falsely accused him, it meant that someone knew where Mia was, so to find Mia, they needed to start with the Centurion Group.

Asher straightened his instrument and turned to Claude, “I need to see the acting director of Centurion.”

Asher’s spirited look was clearly telling Claude the good news: “There’s a score to be made for this.”

Claude’s face suddenly lifted with his usual sassy smile and he said lazily, “Roger that.”

Asher sat in his chair with his ten fingers crossed and uncrossed, crossed and uncrossed … If it is true that Mia’s disappearance is related to the Shengshi Group, then the most likely person to strike is the current acting director. Because he is the one who least wants Mia, the real president, to appear.

Then by inference, this acting director called Wang Dong is a big deal.

Just as Asher’s gaze tightened, the phone suddenly rang, “Mr. Jun, Wang Dong from Shengshi Group is here.”

Asher turned in his chair, drew back his thoughts, and coldly said to the caller, “Okay, I got it, tell Xiang to bring him in with him.”

“Yes.” The caller received the order and hung up, leaving only the sound of a beep.

Within moments, Wang Dong walked in, accompanied by Claude.

Wang Dong followed Claude obsequiously and stood in the doorway after entering.

But Claude didn’t look like he was going to entertain Wang Dong, just lazily nestled into the sofa with his hands behind his head and hit his dazed eyes.

Asher looked at his friend’s large grin and frowned lightly, turning to speak, “Please feel free to take your seat, Wang Dong.”

But Wang Dong also seemed to be out of shape, as if he hadn’t heard, his eyes wavering from side to side, his tongue licking his dry lips, his body shivering a little.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Asher noticed the subtle change in the man and didn’t say anything just took note of it, a certain emotion in his eyes deepening.

Hearing no response from Wang Dong, Claude rice open a slit, glanced at the trembling old man, and said carelessly, “Wang Dong, our General Manager Jun invites you to take your seat.”

Claude gave a meaningful glance at Wang Dong and said in a long drawn out tone.

“Oh, oh. Good, good.” Wang Dong snapped back to attention at Claude’s reminder, looked around, and found a chair farther away from the couch and sat down.

“I wonder what Dong Wang has to say about the disappearance of General Manager Wen?” Asher opened the door and skipped the unnecessary words directly.

“What opinion can I have, except that it’s true that Chief Wen is missing. It’s also rather chaotic in the company now, and I’m so busy here that I’m surprised I didn’t think much about it.” Wang Dong felt Asher’s harsh gaze and didn’t dare to look up, just lowered his head and whispered.

This somewhat comical explanation made Asher raise an eyebrow. Such a statement was simply flawed, what kind of loyal ministry would be so busy pulling strings and managing the company in the absence of their superiors that they would forget to look into the president’s disappearance?

Meh, it’s okay to coax a three-year-old.

“Oh? Listening to this tone, it seems like Wang Dong feels good about General Manager Wen’s disappearance. I can’t believe you’re not the least bit worried, huh?” Claude folded his hands behind his head to look far away and closed his eyes, as if he was asleep, yet constantly aware of every detail that was happening around him.

Wang Dong’s palms broke out in a cold sweat when Claude said that, and for a moment, he actually felt something blocking his throat and couldn’t find a reason.

Although these two yellow boys were much younger than himself, he always felt his nerves tighten when he was with them.

Intuition tells Wang Dong that the man in front of him is suspecting himself!

Wang Dong immediately stood up from his chair and swung his hands in front of his chest: “No, no, it’s wrong for Mr. Xiang to say that! Although I am not a hero, I still have the heart to return the favor. Ever since the last time when Mr. Wen gave a helping hand to solve a big problem for the company in a time of crisis, I, Mr. Wang, have been grateful. I only have respect for General Manager Wen, where do I have bad intentions? The charge of saying that I don’t care about General Manager Wen is just too big for me, I, Person Wang, can’t afford it!”

Claude, startled by his overreaction, opened his eyes to look at Asher.

And at that moment Asher was watching Claude with the same meaningful gaze, and the two exchanged a brief glance before immediately and imperceptibly returning to their original position.

“Oh, Wang Dong is overly concerned, I just asked a question. As you know, Wen is the wife of our General Manager Jun, the husband cares about his wife, I can’t stay out of it as a subordinate, right? I can’t stay out of it, can I? I have to go on the scene.” Claude replied lazily as if nothing had happened, still closing his eyes.

“Shhh …” gently wiping the beads of sweat seeping out of his head, the older man’s body slowly sat down.

Wang Dong heard him say that, and his tightly hanging heart was considered to have been released. A voice in his heart told himself, “Okay, okay …”

After a short talk Wang Dong left, leaving only a serious looking Asher and a relaxed looking Claude in the office.

Looking out the window at the distant back, Asher frowned tightly, his mouth indignant, “Old fox, won’t say anything.”
