Chapter 115: Falling into a trap
From the dinner back to the villa, Asher’s face had been tense, emitting a danger signal around him, and the servants were very familiar with his face, and after serving him, they avoided it for fear of getting into trouble.
Looking at his grandson sitting in front of him, Grandpa Jun’s voice was bland, “Asher, since you’re so unhappy about coming to see Grandpa all the time with a tense face, you might as well go back.”
“Grandpa, I didn’t mean it like that, how could I be unhappy after seeing Grandpa?” Seeing the displeasure on Grandpa Jun’s face, Asher withdrew his mind and asked with a concerned face, “Grandpa, how is your health these days? Are you okay?”
Glancing faintly at Asher, Grandpa Jun’s face was also very ugly, and the words that came out were even harder, “If only you would make less of those negative news out there, Grandpa I might not be so angry with you. Alas, who made me like watching the news, every time I turn on the TV, it’s always closely related to this precious grandson of mine!”
“Grandpa, those news, they are just catching wind, you should not take it to heart.” His heart sank, Asher had to comfort Grandpa Jun. After the surgery, although Grandpa Jun was much better than before, but after all, people will decline more rapidly at this age.
Grandpa Jun, it seems, aged in a flash to the point where Asher wouldn’t dare.
With a cold hum, Grandpa Jun said coldly, “Asher, although your grandfather is old and useless, he is not blind or deaf yet. You tell grandpa, have you been hanging out with that woman again? All these years have passed and you are a man and you can’t actually get past this?”
“Which woman?” Knowing who Grandpa Jun was talking about, Asher played deaf and dumb on purpose.
Grandpa Jun already had a bad impression of Mia, and he didn’t want to add to it.
“Don’t play dumb with me!” Another cold snort, Grandpa Jun glared at Asher with dissatisfaction, “I’m old, but I’ve experienced much more than you, even if that woman came back in a different skin, I could tell right away that she was the same woman from five years ago. Ever since I knew she was back, I knew there would be no peace in this day, and it was true.”
Secretly shocked by Grandpa Jun’s unique eyes, Asher knew he could no longer hide it, so he had to say in a soft voice, “Grandpa, no matter how it was before, she saved your life after all, even if you don’t appreciate her, you have to be fair and give her a chance … ”
“Fair treatment? How do you expect me to be fair? She saved my life once, but she got Liam killed, and she let you hurt Lena repeatedly… If I get there, how am I going to explain to Lena’s grandfather? You son of a bitch, you just don’t care about grandpa, you want to piss him off, don’t you?” Glaring at Asher, Grandpa Jun coughed in exasperation.
Hurrying to smooth Grandpa Jun’s breath, Asher’s face was full of helplessness, “Grandpa, let’s not mention that she didn’t cause Liam’s death, just talk about my marriage with Lina, do you really want to tie me to Lina in order to keep your promise? Or do you think that Lena is really right for me?”
Asher really felt helpless about Grandpa Jun’s insistence on keeping his promise with Grandpa Leena.
Grandpa Jun coughed for a while before turning red and waving his hand, “If you and Lina are not suitable, then you are even more unsuitable with that woman. Five years ago, she specifically found Grandpa in order to ask for a sum of money. Said that if grandpa could give her a sum of money, he would leave you forever …”
“Five years ago, that’s why she left?” Asher picked up his mouth before Grandpa Jun could finish, his body gradually stiffening and his face turning harder and harder.
So, that’s the truth about why she left five years ago!
He didn’t notice that Grandpa Jun had been gauging his expression, and when he saw such a reaction, he immediately said comfortingly, “Asher, Grandpa told you a long time ago that men are in this world for their careers, not women. Although Lina has an arrogant personality, if our two families unite, you will struggle for many years less. You should know that grandpa is doing everything for your own good.”
Later, Grandpa Jun said something else, Asher didn’t listen at all, his heart was full of what Grandpa Jun had just said.
She came to Grandpa Jun and said if she was given a sum of money she would leave!
Is this why she left? Or, had she originally planned everything and knew the end already.
Damn it, I thought he was in control of everything, but in the end, she was actually controlling everything!
I guess she got quite a lot of that money, otherwise how else could she stay in America for five years with just her ability and become a famous doctor, and even get the position of the president of Shengshi Group.
How much of this was soiled in ways he could never have imagined?
With that, Asher left Grandpa Jun’s room in a muddled state, not realizing that when he left, Leena quickly turned out of the bathroom, walked up to Grandpa Jun and said in a delicate voice, “Grandpa, you’re still good to Leena, your kindness will be in Leena’s heart for the rest of her life. ”
“Well, girl, that woman didn’t even ask for a penny five years ago, and if Asher finds out I’m lying, I’ll have to suffer again, and that’s as far as I can help you.” With a helpless sigh, Grandpa Jun said, “You also need to learn more about how to enlist a man’s heart, don’t just fool around, otherwise, Asher won’t be able to accept you.”
A sinister glint flashed at the bottom of her eyes, Riina laughed and diligently pounded Grandpa Jun’s back, “Grandpa, don’t worry, I’ve already thought of what to do behind the scenes, I’ll make sure that this woman will meekly go back to America and never come to disturb our lives again.”
“Alas, Grandpa is old, Asher is gaining wings, and I can’t keep controlling him all the time, it’s up to you later.” After saying this, Grandpa Jun seemed to have aged over ten years in an instant, his gaze far-reaching.
What he did, was it really the right thing to do?
He’d watched Asher grow up and knew his grandson’s temperament well enough to know that it was the first time he’d ever been so attached to a woman; did he really want to block them?
Besides, in all conscience, Mia really is a better fit for Asher!
But who let him have an appointment with Lina’s grandfather long ago? Everything, it all just depends on God’s will!
In front of Wang Yuxin’s house.
A courier-looking person knocked on her room door and delivered a box in his hand to Wang Yuxin, politely saying, “You are Miss Wang Yuxin, right, this is your courier.”
“My express mail?” Puzzled, she ended up with the box in this person’s hand, feeling the box’s not-so-light weight, Wang Yuxin asked suspiciously, “I didn’t buy anything from the internet, and no one mailed anything to me, so how could there be my mail?”
The courier lookalike looked at it and looked up, “It looks like it’s from Miss Mia.”
“Oh, it’s Mia …” As soon as the words were spoken, Wang Yuxin immediately looked around warily and lowered her voice, “Thank you then!”
After she signed, she was just about to enter the door when she saw the courier-like person stop her and said courteously, “Miss Wang, Miss Luo specifically instructed that you should open the box in front of me, then take the item and just let me send the box back again.”
“What? Mia how could there be such a strange request?” Strangely muttering, Wang Yuxin still opened the box, but saw that the box was just an ordinary dress, nothing strange, and curiously asked, “Is that all? Why do you want me to send back an empty box?”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
“Miss Wang, this is a matter between you two, I am only responsible for delivering things, you help me fill out the slip, and this task is considered done for me.” The courier lookalike still smiled and handed the slip in his hand to Wang Yuxin with a business-like tone.
Wang Yuxin was baffled, so she had to fill out the form and mail this empty box as requested.
After waiting for the courier to leave, the more Wang Yuxin thought about it, the more wrong it was, immediately returned to the house, to Nangong asked to a phone, the situation just now with Nangong asked in detail, heart apprehension.
The Nangong on the other end asked for a long time in silence, and his tone finally fluctuated, “When you filled out the slip, did you write Mia’s current address and put Mia’s name on it?”
“Yeah, that courier said it was from Miss Mia … God, I get it, he’s not a courier at all, he’s there to trick me into confirming Mia’s identity… God, what the hell have I done, I’m going to get Mia killed… … “Suddenly reacting, Wang Yuxin fiercely covered her mouth, unable to believe what would happen.
There are now many people who are already speculating on what the relationship between Centurion’s president Condensation and Asher’s pet Mia from five years ago really is, and what she just did is undoubtedly an admission that Condensation is Mia and Mia is now Condensation!
“Well, Yuxin, it’s not your fault, don’t think too much about it, I’ll see what to do now to fix it? If my guess is good, there should be many reporters coming to block the company now.” Nangong on the other end of the phone asked with a hurried comforting sentence and hung up the phone hurriedly.
Leaving Wang Yuxin holding the phone in one hand, she was dumbfounded for half a day, and after a few minutes, she finally reacted and ran towards the door in a flying manner.
It’s all her fault and she’ll have to take it on herself.
Sure enough, by the time she arrived at the downstairs of the Shengshi Group, there was already a group of reporters gathered around, some of whom were communicating with the doorman and trying to walk into the building. Those guards were already small in number, and now when they saw more and more reporters coming, they had to desperately stop them, calling out loudly towards the intercom to get more people to help stop them.
Wang Yuxin just stood, was carried by a group of reporters wrapped, involuntarily towards the building, want to struggle can not struggle to move.
