Chapter 160: Figuring out a solution
Instead, Mia woke up again to see a little maid sitting on the edge of her bed, probably because she was so sleepy, her little head pecking little by little, like a chicken pecking at rice.
“Where is this place?” Looking around at the slightly familiar surroundings, a strange feeling flashed through Mia’s mind as she struggled to prop herself up with her hands, only to feel so uncomfortably dizzy that she almost fell off the bed.
Probably sensing Mia’s movement, the little maid jumped up in shock, rubbed her hand over her disoriented eyes, and shouted in a panic, “Miss Luo, Miss Luo, I’m awake, awake, you’re awake?”
Asher had arranged for her to be here to guard Mia who had been sleeping unconsciously, and if Asher saw her actually slacking off and sleeping, he would definitely fire her. Thinking about this, the little maid’s little face turned pale.
“You don’t need to be afraid, speak slowly if you have anything to say.” The little maid’s panic made Mia a little confused, she just asked a question, why is this little maid so panicked, she softly reassured the little maid, “I’m just asking you where this place is, you don’t need to be afraid.”
The little maid’s little face turned red at once, scratching her little head uneasily and answering Mia’s question in a restless manner, “Miss Luo, this is the Jun family’s villa, don’t you know that I …”
Perhaps also feeling that her words were a little too much, especially seeing the pale face of Mia that turned violently pale in front of her when she uttered those words, the little maid’s heart became even more panic-stricken, and she hurriedly stopped her mouth from speaking further, only rubbing the corner of her coat uneasily.
“What did you just say, this is the Jun family’s villa!” Even though she already had more or less the answer in her heart when she woke up just now, hearing the little maid’s words still caused a flash of anger and panic to pass through Mia’s heart.
Could it be that Asher had actually taken her to his villa while she was passed out?
What does he mean by that!
“Well, you go out first, there’s nothing more for you to do here, Miss Luo will just be looked after by me.” Just as the little maid was panicking and at a loss for words, Asher, who was carrying a bowl of silver ear porridge, had stood in the room at some point.
The little maid didn’t dare to say much, and quickly exited the room without a word.
Mia twisted her head and sneered nonchalantly, “Asher, you’re getting more and more okay, actually taking advantage of my drowsiness to take me captive to your villa. It’s disgraceful for a Master Jun to do such a thing!”
“You are sick, don’t talk much, I just ordered the kitchen to make your favorite silver ear congee, you have been sleeping for a long time, it’s better to drink some congee, it’s better for your body.” At Mia’s taunting, Asher just smiled gently and sat by the bed with the congee.
Mia finally whipped her head around and looked coldly at the porridge he was holding in his slender fingers, “Asher, I don’t want to live here, just send me back!”
There was no hint of warmth in her voice.
“Mia , I know you don’t want to see me, but, you need to drink some porridge to have the strength to argue with me, right?” Asher’s voice, still tender and doting, was full of tenderness in his dark eyes. Now Asher, there was a hint of strangeness and tenderness that left Mia stunned. It seemed that Mia’s coldness and defiance were not on his mind at all.
For a moment, Mia was actually in a bit of a trance.
Taking advantage of this moment when she was in a trance, Asher had already used a spoon to serve a spoonful of silver ear porridge, thoughtfully blew on it with his mouth, and tenderly brought it to her mouth, his dark eyes shining as he looked at her pale but still absolutely beautiful little face.
I don’t know why, but Mia, who was just now filled with anger, opened her mouth unconsciously as if she was compelled to do so, while her eyes were fixed on Asher’s eyes, as if she was dreaming.
Could the man who was cold and whom she had hated for five years have such a gentle side?
Seeing her open her mouth to drink the silver ear porridge he fed her, the corners of Asher’s mouth, at last, rippled into a gentle smile, and seeing a strand of her hair falling down, he couldn’t help but reach out and tenderly tuck the loose strands of her hair behind her tiny ears.
All this, Mia surprisingly did not refuse, just as if compelled to eat the silver ear porridge he fed her one bite after another.
At this moment, Mia was as meek as a baby, and her small face, which had been pale a moment ago, was gradually floating with a lovely blush, and her thick and long eyelashes, which opened and closed like the feathers of a butterfly, flickered with a feeling that made people’s hearts palpitate.
“The way you looked just now, so beautiful.” Seeing that the bowl of porridge had been finished by Mia, Asher stretched out his slender fingers and wiped the porridge from the corner of her mouth, a doting and unmistakable smile on his handsome and peerless face.
How nice it would be to keep going like this.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
Mia looked like she had finally snapped out of the compelled state she had just been in, the blush on her face vanished in a flash and was replaced with a look of distaste and frost as she coldly twisted her head, “Asher, I’m not going to pursue you for bringing me back privately, you tell Nangong to ask to come over now, I want to go back and have him take me back!”
“Mia , it was after Nangong asked for permission that I took you back to the villa! Your body hasn’t fully recovered yet, so it’s better to rest early, okay?” Frowning slightly, Asher really had a headache for Mia’s overreaction.
This little woman, still refusing to forgive him.
Snapping her head around, Mia’s clear eyes were filled with disbelief, “What did you say, you just said it was Nangong Man who agreed for you to bring me back? Impossible, how could Nangong asked you to bring me back! You give me the phone, I want to call him, I want to ask him what the hell is going on!”
“Mia , can you calm down a bit, you are not well now, don’t think too much, when you are better, I will send you back, okay?” Asher’s gentle tone was like he was coaxing a small child who was throwing a tantrum.
“No, Asher, you get out of here, I don’t want to see you, I don’t want to see you!” Thinking that Nangong asked actually agreed to let Asher take her back to the villa, a flash of irritation and uneasiness inexplicably flashed through Mia’s heart, and she twisted her face away in hatred.
How could Namgung ask, knowing that she didn’t want to see Asher right now, and agree to him bringing himself to the villa!
Afraid that she would get too excited, Asher hurriedly soothed her, “Okay, okay, I’ll go out now, you don’t have to rise, I’ll go out now. As long as you don’t want to see me, I won’t come in, okay?”
Asher, now, makes Mia flash an inexplicable palpitation, yet she stubbornly refuses to turn her face away from five years of hatred that won’t go away in a moment!
“And Mia , I know you refuse to forgive me because of what happened five years ago, I will prove to you that I really didn’t know about the baby, otherwise, I wouldn’t have watched our baby being aborted. My Asher’s child, how can I let it be aborted!” Asher, who walked to the door, suddenly looked straight at Mia as if he remembered something and said.
Thinking about the last time, Mia coldly curled her lips and sneered, “Asher, how do you prove it, or are you using Lena as a shield? It’s good to have done this kind of thing once, it’s annoying to do it again!”
What happened the last time Riina held a press conference had left an indelible shadow in her heart! This man, when did it come to the point where he needed a woman to take the blame for his faults?
“Mia , no matter what, I’ll make you believe it.” With a faint comment, Asher turned and walked out.
Mia sat down paralyzed, but her insides were churning, seeing how tender and doting Asher was towards her, she wasn’t as cold and calm inside as she seemed on the surface. No matter how much she hates Asher, the man still manages to stir up the same frenzy and storm in her heart as he did five years ago.
Could it be that what happened five years ago really had nothing to do with him?
And if it really wasn’t about him, what was she supposed to do? She’d hated Asher for so long, what was she supposed to do if it suddenly dawned on her that she hated the wrong person?
God knows, the hatred for Asher had become everything she had lived for over the past five years.
If that hatred suddenly collapsed, how would she face Asher, how would she face the rest of her life.
Shrinking into a corner, Mia wrapped her arms tightly around her knees and buried her small face between them, shrinking into a protective state. Perhaps this was the only way to make her feel safe.
But after Asher left Mia’s room, he drove to the office, even though it was getting cloudy, where Claude was waiting idly for Asher with his legs crossed and a cigar in his office.
“My Master Asher, I may be your man, but you are too desperate, I just had a date with a beautiful woman, I could have had a spring night, but you summoned me with a phone call, causing me to have an empty pleasure!” After seeing Asher, Claude grumbled a few times out of habit.
Asher knew his character, and in all the time he had known him, Claude had been more interested in his affairs than anything else, but the only downside, was that Claude always liked to complain incessantly.
Asher tossed his jacket on the couch next to him before sinking himself into the wide boss chair, his face all dark shadows, “Claude, has the man been found yet?”
“My Asher, when have I ever dared not do what you commanded?” Claude replied with a big grin, “I’ve found him, what’s next? Well, just tell her to go and talk to Mia, as I meant to do, without too much trouble.”
“After what happened last time, Mia can’t just trust me anymore, there has to be a way to do it.” After a long silence, Asher finally spoke up.
