The CEO’s Pet Cat

The place Asher had brought her to was a small island in the heart of a lake, not very large, the only place on the island was a light and chic courtyard with a clean white two story cottage and roses of all colors growing in the courtyard. Outside the courtyard was a tranquil lake, a neat and white sandy beach, and in the open space at the back of the courtyard was an entertainment venue used for parties, luxurious but not high-profile.

“Do you like it here?” Asher stood at some point behind Mia, who was watching the lake with rapt attention, strong arms circling her thin waist, his chin resting on Mia’s shoulder gentle breath enveloping her entire body.

“Like, it’s beautiful and quiet. It gives you a relaxing feeling.” Mia’s heart filled with warmth and tenderness as she closed her eyes and enjoyed the red-flushed sunset in front of her.

“We’ll come more often after you like it.” Asher coaxed the little baby in his arms as if he were coaxing a child.

“Hmm.” Mia’s eyelashes were long, and the light of the setting sun spilled onto her face like a dancing butterfly.

“It’s not dark yet, and the most beautiful time here is at night.” Asher let go of the arm that circled Mia’s, but his right hand took hers in a smooth grip.

“It’s beautiful right now.” Mia opened her eyes and looked at Asher with a sweet smile.

“Show you something nice.” Suddenly Asher pulled Mia at a run away from the lake and ran towards the patio.

Mia didn’t resist either, letting Asher pull her along with him into the courtyard.

“Look.” Asher pointed to the roses in the yard, a smug grin on his face.

“So many roses! Although I saw them outside, I didn’t realize they were so big until I walked in!” Mia was so amazed and excited that she forgot about Asher and walked into the sea of roses.

“Huh? What’s this?” Suddenly, Mia saw a small silver ball hanging from the stem of a champagne rose, apparently from the rain, which had a slight rust on it and appeared to be some years old.

“On November 3, Mia gave me a black sweater that wasn’t designer but somehow made me feel warm in the wind this winter. I love it.” Mia read silently, a hint of doubt growing in her heartland.

I was pondering what it was when I looked up and saw a small silver ball hanging from each champagne rose. The light was streaming in the sun’s afterglow.

Mia casually picked up another silver blob next to her and looked at the writing on it as well, “May 8, today Mia made my favorite dish, knowing she’s not much of a cook, it burned, but I still had a good time.”

No year, just a specific time, and my name? Mia subconsciously made a quick connection between the blobs and Asher, who was standing outside. Shouldn’t …

Mia immediately picked up the little silver ball next to her and read, “June 1, and it’s so cute how she’s yelling about Children’s Day.”

“It’s almost Christmas on December 8, and because of you, this winter is a warm one.” …

Looking at the little balls, Mia felt another wave of warmth flow from her left heart all over her body. The tears in her eyes couldn’t stop flowing down. She unconsciously glanced back at Asher who was standing outside the flower field, and her heart was sweetly filled with emotion. I never thought that he, who was always a bit cold, would be so heartfelt.

These are the bits and pieces of them from five years ago …

“Fool, what are you crying for, you’re only a third of the way through and you haven’t even seen my field of white roses yet.” Asher walked over to the small woman crouched in a field of pink champagne roses and reached out his long fingers to wipe the teardrops from the corners of her eyes.

The way the little woman cried pearly tears was so heartbreaking.

“A field of white roses? What’s that?” Mia asked with a shaky sob as she stopped her sobbing.

“For the five years you were away, every time I thought of you, I went here to plant a white rose, and before I knew it, it grew into a sea of flowers.” Asher’s tone was still gentle, as if it could melt all the ice and cold.

Asher led Mia out of the field of champagne roses and over to the field of white roses.

“It’s been 21 days since you left on September 2, and I thought I would hate you so much for just forgetting about me. But I still never believed you were like that.” Asher whispered as he casually picked up a small silver ball of inscriptions on a white rose.

“May 16, the 254th day you were gone, I miss you, what are you doing?”Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

“March 28th, you’ve been gone for 563 days, I don’t know if you’ll ever come back, Grandpa is still insistent that I marry Lena, but I can’t believe I can’t let you go.”

Asher recited earnestly, not noticing that the little one beside him was crying uncontrollably.

“January 5 …” Suddenly, something soft gagged Asher’s mouth, the soft warmth still tinged with some faint bitter salty taste that wafted sweetly to his lips.

Asher dropped what he was holding and wrapped his arms around Mia’s body as if he were trying to stuff her into himself, responding to her kisses passionately, so fervently, so tenderly.

It was a long time before the two parted and sat in a sea of flowers embracing each other.

“Mia .” Asher whispered as he took Mia’s shoulder.

“Hmm?” Mia leaned over Asher’s shoulder and smiled faintly.

“Marry me and I will give you all the happiness you want.” Asher held Mia tightly, the sound of his heartbeat had broken the silence around him, and time was frozen at the moment with this sound alone.

Suddenly, Mia pushed Asher away, “Don’t.”

“Why is that, Mia? Aren’t we good? Are you still thinking about that Nangong asking?” Asher was nervous as hell, if it was really that Nangong guy who took this little woman’s heart, he definitely wouldn’t let him get away with it!

“There is no such thing, other people propose with roses, luxury cars, diamond rings to send beauty, you are good, nothing, just this yard of flowers and then I marry you ah, really no sincerity!” Mia pouted and simply stopped looking at Asher.

Asher’s hanging heart dropped, the corners of his mouth curved in a delicate curve, it seemed the little woman had quite a temper.

“Dang …” As if something hit the ground, Mia thought to herself, this guy can’t be thinking about hitting the wall, right? Then who will marry himself! Immediately anxiously back to the head.

When Mia looked back, she saw Asher on one knee, a red rose in his left hand, and a diamond ring in his right hand looking deeply at her.

“Mia, marry me, will you? Let’s plant this one red rose together and together let this garden be a testament to our love!” Asher shouted as if to Mia, and as if to heaven and earth, to the sea of flowers. He wanted the world to witness such a beautiful moment!

“Well, good.” Mia held out her right hand and watched as the ring was placed on her ring finger, locking the two together for life from then on.

“Oh, good!” Claude came out of the house at some point, clapping his hands together.

Mia was shocked and looked at Asher questioningly, but Asher’s face was all smiles, and Mia realized that she had been tricked by this bad guy, and her mouth puckered up again, but her eyes were clearly full of laughter.

This man, what a heart!

“Yeah, Mia , wish you guys happiness!” Wang Yuxin suddenly appeared from behind Claude and was about to make a face, but she accidentally kicked Claude’s right foot and was about to fall down.

Suddenly Nangong asked his big hand wrapped around Wang Yuxin, his eyes full of and concern, “Why are you so careless? Is everything alright?”

Nangong asked, not knowing when he had become Mr. Nice Guy, as soon as he saw this girl in danger, he would want to step in to help like a conditioned reaction.

Wang Yuxin looked at Nangong asked looking at her with concern, her face flushed and she immediately got up, stood to the side with her head down and whispered, “No, it’s fine.”

Nangong asked a little embarrassed and withdrew his hand, walking side by side with Wang Yuxin towards the outside of the house.

By this time the fireworks had started outside, and the brilliant fireworks were imprinted on Mia’s little face, and for the moment she was famous.

“This firework was specially prepared by Asher for the proposal oh, to think that my titled manager actually had to come to a small isolated island like this to set off fireworks, how can I mix it up if word gets out.” Claude took a tall glass of wine and sent the red wine into his stomach, shouting loudly. It didn’t look like he was not going to make it, it felt like he was proud of it.

“You’re the one who talks too much, would it kill you to help me out.” Asher gave Claude a blank look, her tone not as cold as usual and a smile spilling out of the bottom of her eyes.

“Hey, that’s a lot of having a daughter-in-law and forgetting your brother. asher well you should thank me at least, right?” Claude toyed with his glass and threw a ‘give me the benefit of the doubt’ look at Asher.

Only to see Asher pick up an apple from the table and throw it at Claude, “Eat slowly, there’s not enough left!”

“I can’t believe the dang president is so stingy!” Claude took the apple, took a bite and puffed out his cheeks in exasperation, swallowed it and then shouted reluctantly, “Asher, you’ll get what’s coming to you!”

Asher completely ignored the verbose chatterbox, his eyes searching for the smaller woman.

Wang Yuxin and Mia sat a little away from them, where there was a swing tied with roses and colored lights, the colorful lights printed with roses of various colors, making a unique beauty.

“You know what, Mia , I’m really happy to see you happy too, I wish you guys from the bottom of my heart!” Wang Yuxin asked as she swung while looking at Nangong in the distance.

“I know,” Mia took Wang Yuxin’s hand and threw a big smiling smile. Wang Yuxin was worried about her, how could she not know that? There were not many people in this world who were inseparable from Mia, and Wang Yuxin was definitely one of them.
