Chapter 68 – Lena’s Help
Mia, annoyed, twisted away from the exasperated Lena.
This action angered Riina even more as she walked over to Mia’s bed and shoved her hard, “Mia, it’s come to this, can you still sleep? And, after this kind of thing, do you still have the face to live in Jun’s house anymore?”
Mia had no choice but to twist her head around, roll over and sit up, looking coldly at Li Na, “Miss Li, not all women are like you who only care about fame and fortune. Do you think that I just really want to stay in the Jun family?”
“Er …” Riina froze, then quickly responded with disgust, “If you didn’t want to live here, no one could stop you.”
“You think that it’s up to me?” Staring hard into Rina’s eyes, a strong repulsion rose in Mia’s heart, “Also, I listened to everything Asher said to you that time, I don’t suppose you had anything to do with my miscarriage?”
Seeing Mia’s stern voice, Riina couldn’t help but take a step back, yet she immediately retorted with a straight face, “Mia, don’t spout blood, you said I caused you to miscarry your child, what evidence do you have? Is it because you’re crazy like a child and you feel like a murderer to everyone you see?”
Riina’s voice was a bit underlined, after all, the matter of Mia’s miscarriage couldn’t be separated from her. That time Asher had only slightly mentioned it, and it had already made her scared, and what she feared most now was that the matter would be investigated.
Asher wouldn’t take it lying down if he found out he’d aborted the baby because of her, Mia.
“Lina, sooner or later, I’ll make this clear.” Looking straight across at Leena, Mia’s voice carried determination.
Riina’s body couldn’t help but wince a little, but she quickly changed the subject, “Mia, you clearly want to stay here and not leave, that’s why you’re deliberately digressing, right? If you really wanted to leave, no one would be able to stop you.”
“Then I would ask, Miss Ri, how do I get out of here?” Mia frowned, throwing the dilemma at Riina. Riina had known Asher longer than she had, didn’t she know his temper?
A bright light flashed in Lena’s eyes as she pressed closer to Mia, pressing the question, “Mia, would you leave if I had a way to get you out?”
“You?” Mia’s eyes flashed with a hint of hesitation, “You can really let me go?”
“Naturally, I’m Asher’s fiancée, so how would I allow another woman to compete with me for my fiancé? If you really want to get out of here, I’ll help you!” Lena’s carefully manicured eyes flashed with disbelief.
Did Mia really want to leave Asher and give up her life now?
Mia took a deep breath and nodded heavily, “I’ll get out of here if you’ll help me, I swear!”
Only by leaving here can she breathe freely. Asher’s confinement terrifies her.
“Hello, I can help you leave now!” Seeing Mia nod, Lena couldn’t wait to pull her up, her voice having a hidden surprise in it.
Asher has never been without a woman by his side, and it’s the first time she’s seen him this attached to one, and it terrifies her. Also as a woman, Lena knows that Asher has already made a real move for Mia, he just doesn’t know it yet.
All she can do now is get Mia out of his life in a hurry before Asher finds out his own true feelings!
Just as her words warmed up, she saw the butler timidly peeking in and said respectfully, “Miss Lai, Master Jun has instructed to let Miss Luo rest, so if you’ve visited Miss Luo, please go back, lest Master Jun be displeased!”
“Bastard, do you still need to remind me of what this lady is doing? Or, are you simply shooing this young lady away?” Seeing that the butler actually dared to rush herself, Lina rebuked in vocal distance.
“I dare not, Miss Lai help yourself.” After the butler was cleaved and scolded, he quickly retracted his head and left with a gray head.
Riina was arrogant and unusual, and he wouldn’t dare piss her off easily.
Mia’s lips curled into a sneer as she lazily said, “Miss Li, you saw what just happened, what can you do to get me to leave in this situation? Even if I left, Asher would have caught me back soon, right?”
Riina looked embarrassed and bit her lip for half a day before finally making up her mind, “Tomorrow is Liam’s funeral service, you can ask Asher to take you there then and I will naturally find a way to arrange for you to leave, is that okay with you?”
“Okay, then I’ll ask Asher to take me there when the time comes, and you can arrange for me to leave!” After a few minutes of thought, Mia finally made up her mind and nodded heavily.
After the two reached an agreement, Lina was in a happy mood and left the villa with a light step, while a strange emotion rose in Mia’s heart.
Now that she was really leaving, why did a strong feeling of reluctance arise in her heart? Could it be that she couldn’t leave Asher now?
When Asher came back and saw Mia’s preoccupied look, he finally couldn’t help but ask, “What’s wrong with you today, seeing how distracted you are, did something happen? I heard from the housekeeper that Lena came by today, did she say something?”
He knows Riina’s temper, she already sees Mia as a thorn in her side, and will definitely follow up Liam Jun’s affair with Mia’s trouble this time.
“It’s okay, she said it the hard way but it’s the truth, Liam was supposed to be my death.” Mia shook her head, her face pale, and looked straight at Asher, “Asher, tomorrow is Liam’s funeral day, and I want to attend.”
Asher looked straight at her for a long time before he finally switched to nodding.
“Asher, you’re so sweet, thank you!” A heart that had been apprehensive finally dropped, Mia slowly snuggled into Asher’s embrace.
Maybe this is the last time she’ll be in his arms, just allow her to be capricious for once!
An unaware Asher sensed her abnormality, but thinking she was still upset about Liam Jun, he gently took her soft body into his arms and gently patted her back.
The two just snuggled close together.
The next day.
Jun’s villa, Liam Jun’s funeral service.
Seeing Asher and Mia who came to pay their condolences, Grandpa Jun grunted coldly with a black face, “Asher, what are you doing here with her, we don’t welcome this murderer here!”
“Dad, there are so many people now, you’d better restrain yourself …” Seeing that there were already many people looking up with puzzled looks on their faces, Jun Haotian’s face was all embarrassed. Grandpa Jun had been for a long time because of Liam Jun’s matter on the verge of losing control.
Asher took a step closer and whispered to Grandpa Jun, “Grandpa, you are the head of the family, don’t do such an unseemly thing in front of so many guests.”
“You …” Grandpa Jun froze and gave Asher a half-hearted look with a grimace before finally saying nothing more.
“Asher, I’d better go out for a bit to save the old man from seeing me upset, and it’s not really appropriate for this occasion.” Gently tugging on Asher’s sleeve, Mia said softly.
Looking back at her, Asher nodded, “Go find a place to sit for a while, I’ll come over to you later.”
Seeing with her afterglow that Lina was waving to her, Mia’s heart shook and she nodded at Asher in a panic, turning towards Lina who was not far away.
Liam Jun’s funeral service was going on in an orderly manner, and as the eldest grandson of the Jun family, Asher had been so busy that he had no time to spare. The funeral service was almost over when he suddenly remembered Mia!
Sweeping his gaze around him, Asher saw no sign of Mia, and a strong wave of unease rose in him, but he tried to calm himself down and began to look around for Mia.
“Asher, what are you doing?” Seeing Asher looking around, Riina hated and was angry, but acted like nothing was wrong and got in Asher’s way.
By stopping Asher, Mia’s chances of leaving become better.
Asher coldly pushed Riina away, her gaze still searching around, “This has nothing to do with you, you just will please grandpa, no need to ask about my business.”
Lena bit her lip tightly, forcing herself to hold back her anger and sneered, “Asher, I’m guessing, you’re looking for Miss Luo?”
“You know where she is?” Asher jerked to a halt and twisted his head around, his inky black eyes locked on Leena, his voice tinged with a faint anxiety, “Tell me quickly, where is she now?”
His large hand, tightening around Rina’s arm out of nervousness and involuntarily using all his strength, Rina was in raw pain from his grip and frowned as she tried to get away from his large hand, “Asher, you’re hurting me!”All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
“Come on, where the hell is she now? Are you the one who’s up to something?” Simply ignoring the pain on Rina’s face, Asher’s voice took on an anxious edge from the tension, a rare surge of anxiety in his dark eyes.
Seeing his look, Rina didn’t dare to sell out anymore and said through the pain, “Asher, I just saw her run out of the hall earlier, I don’t know about the back.”
“What!” Asher’s heart was stunned as he violently let go of Lina’s hand and took big steps towards the outside of the villa. In his heart, a thick uneasiness rose up that was hard to dispel.
Asher walked quickly to the door and grimly questioned the doorman, “Did you see Miss Luo earlier? Did she go somewhere?”
“Master Jun, Miss Luo said she had to go out on something and left an hour ago …” the doorman replied cautiously, not knowing what was going on.
