The CEO’s Pet Cat

It’s not yet light.

There was still a bright moon hanging in the sky, and the grey sky heralded this as the time of alternating day and night.

A tall figure slowly emerged from an old apartment building, quickly disappearing around a corner into an alleyway and into a fancy car that had been waiting for it.

Claude sat in the driver’s seat with one hand on his forehead, glancing with interest at his friend who had successfully “absconded”, his bland eyes glancing at the apartment building he had just exited, “I mean, you’re just going to leave without a word?”

He really admired Asher for pretending to be so desperate when he was obviously still hung up on this little wildcat.

Asher’s deep eyes fell straight through the gray haze of the sky to the window, as if he could still see the sleeping figure lying on the bed, his deep eyes tinged with a hint of painful secrecy.

He can’t stay here now. Absolutely not!

It was already a mistake for him to appear in front of Mia’s eyes, he couldn’t afford any more surprises!

Having made his decision, the look on Asher’s face instantly reverted back to the coldness that made him retreat.

Seeing this expression on his face, Claude, who was sitting on the side, sighed helplessly, “Ugh, I used to admire you, but now I kind of despise you …”

“Drive your car properly and cut the crap!” Seeing that he was going to continue nagging, Asher threw over a cold warning.

Claude immediately nodded and said, “Fine, fine, I’ll see who will regret it when the time comes.”

“Go!” Asher forced himself to pull back his fond eyes, a pair of cold, cold eyes. Then, without any further response to his words, she just leaned lazily in the back seat and slowly closed her eyes.

Instead, when Mia woke up, she realized that Asher was long gone from the bed. She closed her eyes slightly as a line of tears slowly slipped from the corner of her eyes.

For the next few days, Mia was almost lost in general.

After a wonderful night between them, she’s the one left behind again, only this time he disappears for good.

She had originally thought that the matter would just go away, that she and this man, even if they crossed paths because of this matter, would never see each other again.

Until, after a month or so had passed, she noticed that her period was surprisingly out of whack. With trepidation, she took a test, only to find out she was pregnant!

Mia went to the hospital on a fluke and got a bolt from the blue, she was really pregnant!

After coming out of the hospital, Mia sat stiffly on a hospital bench, a hospital lab slip squeezed tightly in her hand, cold tears flowing slowly from her dull eyes, finally lowering onto the lab slip in her hand that had caused her so much pain.

Was God playing a joke on her? A sad, bitter smile hung on the absolutely beautiful lips as the lettering on the lab sheet gradually opened up with the dripping tears.

After sitting for who knows how long, she finally stood up and walked aimlessly down the street. Looking at the brightly lit department store and the people bustling around, she let out a long sigh, why did she seem more alone when it was obviously such a lively scene?

Wouldn’t it be less lonely with more people?

She touched her throbbing chest gently, her expression a little bewildered & uncomprehending.

She came to the front of the department store and sat in a chair, looking vacantly at the people, at the couples or lovers, holding hands and ringing their waists, all with happy smiles on their faces, looking at her with such envy.

She used to be the same way, she thought she was happy and was full of the idea that such happiness would last until after she was turned to white …

Since that night had passed, her world had changed, and her protective feathers had long been in tatters …

The tears stopped and flowed and flowed again, it was as if her tears were always flowing, she cried until her eyes were red and sore, but she couldn’t keep herself from shedding them.

Thinking about the night Asher had left without hesitation, without even leaving a word behind. After the night they had spent together, the man had evaporated from her life, and she had to say that Asher’s actions were far more hurtful than Grandpa Jun’s.

Wasn’t she sad enough?

Didn’t someone say that you can’t cry if your heart is truly broken? If she wasn’t heartbroken like this, then what kind of hurt is deeper than her?

It hurt enough for her, didn’t it?

Fingers gently stroked her soft belly, tugging bitterly at the corners of her mouth as she sat withered until the department store closed and the crowd faded away.

She didn’t know how long she sat there until a figure blocked the light from the streetlamp and Mia’s petite frame was shrouded in a shadow. Mia only felt the light dimmer and without looking up, she spoke in a bad mood, “Go away.”

Right now, she just wanted some quiet time to herself.

Not long after, an inaudible sigh rang out from above her head, hearing this sigh, Mia slowly lifted her head and looked up at the woman standing in front of her, “Xin Xin …”

After seeing that it was her best friend Wang Yuxin standing in front of her, Mia’s hollow eyes finally couldn’t hold back the tears that had fallen.

Only to see Wang Yuxin with one arm crossed, looking down at Mia sitting on the chair, her concerned eyes seeing those unusually red and swollen eyes, a soft sigh spilled out from between her red lips, but the words coming out were still straightforward, “What? Are you trying to sit here and pretend to be a ghost and scare people?”

Looking at her in this half-dead state must have something to do with that smelly man again, “Why is the phone off?” If she hadn’t come around here tonight to pick up her goods, she already would have just assumed the woman had disappeared again.

A month ago, before dawn, her door had been knocked on by this woman, and it had taken a lot of effort to get the ridiculous agreement she had made with a man out of her, but the stupid woman had kept her mouth shut about everything about that man.

Damn it, does this woman have no brain! It’s getting to the point where she’s still looking out for that man!

Looking at her best friend’s face, Mia dulled her eyes again and dropped her head. She didn’t need her friends’ pity at this moment, and their words of comfort would only embarrass her further.

Wang Yuxin watched as Mia averted her eyes, and finally she simply pulled Mia’s wrist up directly, forcing her to stand up from her chair.

“Xin Xin, where are you taking me?” Mia’s voice was slowly all but exhausted.

“Let’s find a place to sit and talk about what’s going on.” Wang Yuxin had no intention of going soft, she had sacrificed her time at work to come out and find her, so how could she see her in this half-dead state.

Mia, who was being dragged hard along, looked at the back of her friend who was walking quickly ahead of her, her cool eyes dimming, and her fingers couldn’t help but brush up against the small of her back.

The two of them came to the small suite where Wang Yuxin was, and after leaving Mia alone in the living room, Wang Yuxin went straight into the kitchen and went about her work.

A short while later, she came out with a saucepan and placed it on the square table, her eyes glancing at the woman nestled on the couch lost in her own world, “You haven’t eaten this late, have you? I made creamy salmon drizzle pasta, come over and eat.”

Mia swept a glance at her friend, not wanting to spoil some of her good intentions, though she didn’t have the slightest appetite at the moment, and reluctantly took a bite, saying perfunctorily, “It’s delicious.”This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Hurry up and eat, we still have things to talk about after dinner.” Wang Yuxin sat on the sofa, taking small sips of the flower tea she had made.

“Wicked …” Mia actually spat out the fresh fish again after the first bite, alive.

Wang Yuxin, who was sitting on the sofa, looked at her figure that was quickly running towards the bathroom, and from the bottom of his eyes, he quickly flashed a brilliant light, placing the flower tea in his hand on the desktop as well.

By the time Mia came out of the bathroom, she saw Wang Yuxin leaning against the wall with her arms around her chest, a pair of shrewd eyes fixed on her belly, “Are you … having one?”

Facing Wang Yuxin’s compelling sight, Mia lowered her head in silence, the hands hanging at her side couldn’t help but clench into fists, and her dull eyes flickered with a few glimmers of light.

“You’re pregnant with that man’s child?” Wang Yuxin’s face instantly turned gloomy as she looked askance at her best friend with a cold face. Without being polite to her, she directly handed her the pregnancy test that she held in her hand, “Go take a look.”

Mia just swept the arm that had stopped in mid-air with absolutely no intention of picking up the pregnancy test, her black pupils fixed on her friend’s embarrassed face, her pointed chin slowly nodding down under the angry gaze.

As her head fell, a shocked roar came out of Wang Yuxin’s tiny voice, “Mia! You idiot!”

Mia didn’t say a word, obediently allowing Wang Yuxin to count her words, the corners of her mouth curled up into a bitter smile. Only when Wang Yuxin scolded her did she feel that she was still alive.

Half an hour later, Wang Yuxin sat on the sofa with a serious expression, a pair of beautiful legs crossed in front of her body, her eyes staring intently at the lab report placed on the coffee table, trying to make her breathing smooth, and it was only with great difficulty that she could suppress the anger in her heart.

Letting out a large breath, his eyes fixed on Mia who had been scowling across the room, “What are you going to do now?”

Mia looked up slowly, her eyes lingering on the lab sheet for a few seconds before she raised her eyes across the table to her best friend who was currently overcome with anger, “I’m keeping this baby.”

Wang Yuxin was going crazy, gritting her teeth and glaring at the woman across from her, “What I’m asking is, the father of the child! What are you going to do?”

Mia’s cool eyes dimmed again at the mention of the man who had broken her heart, her body curled up in a corner of the couch, her quiet eyes looking at the lab sheet that she had rubbed numerous times.

Seeing Mia like this, Wang Yuxin also knew that she had pushed too hard, and slowly retracted the body that had protruded forward, looking at her with a calm look askance.
