Chapter 52 – You expect me to believe that?
Asher ignored her trembling and pressed straight towards her, “Are things still up to you?”
Seeing the anger in Asher’s eyes, Mia shivered and wrapped her arms around herself, trying not to let the cold get to her, but it turned out to be in vain, for her heart was cold at the moment, and when her heart was cold, so was her body.
“Vomit …” The inside of her stomach started to turn over again and Mia couldn’t help but dry heave again.
“You think, just because you act like that, I’ll let you go?” Asher grabbed her easily and seeing her trembling body, he knew he had achieved what he wanted and let out an evil laugh, “I thought you didn’t feel anything for me anymore? Your body, however, couldn’t be more honest.”
Mia bit her lip tightly and looked away from Asher’s cold eyes.
“Let go of me!” Fearing she would sink, Mia struggled desperately.
“Did you reject me repeatedly for Liam Jun. You still have him in mind, don’t you? You’re such a bitch!” Asher’s anger was no longer under control, and he unleashed it on her without reservation.
Mia clenched her lower lip, her face white and her heart aching with pain, not realizing how bad she was in Asher’s eyes.
“There’s nothing going on with me and Liam Jun.” While desperately fighting back against Asher, Mia tried to argue her case.
Even though she knew Asher wouldn’t believe it, she still didn’t want to be misunderstood by him.
“You expect me to believe that?” Asher’s cold, chilling eyes locked on the woman beneath him for an instant with a mixture of coldness and disgust.
“I don’t care if you believe it or not, that’s how it was supposed to be and my feelings for Liam Jun have always been limited to being friends, I’ve never betrayed you.” Turning her face away from the face that was causing her heartache, Mia didn’t want to show weakness in front of him.
Asher’s beady eyes shot straight to Mia’s delicate, pale face, “I’ve never trusted anything but my own eyes, don’t you tell me that what I’m seeing is an illusion.”
How dare you argue for yourself? Good, good, this woman has hardened her wings after only a few days away, and he’ll make her pay.
Mia still turned her back on him without saying a word, but her heart ached so much that he didn’t believe her!
“Not talking? Who do you think you are? Stop pretending, you wanted to leave me and Liam Jun a long time ago, didn’t you? Or did you leave my side just for Liam Jun!” the thought of Liam Jun hugging her made Asher want to freak out.
Damn it, how could he tolerate someone else touching his stuff! Not even his own brother!
He’d warned Liam Jun a long time ago, but it seems his warnings didn’t have the slightest effect, so don’t blame him for disregarding the brotherhood of man!
He paid no heed to the reason for his anger, simply assuming that it was something of his that had been touched by someone else, unaware that his anger carried a tinge of jealousy.
Now Mia was powerless to explain anymore, and her explanations only made him more angry.
The icy air made her wince again, so cold, even if the hug was tight it was still going to be cold, and he … wouldn t even care if she froze to death.
Asher took her silence as acquiescence and the fire in his heart miso reached its peak in a flash, his large throbbing, sinewy palm squeezing her wrist, his face filled with a retreating anger while his eyes glared at her with murderous intensity, “No answer? Also, it’s a fact anyway so there’s no point in saying it again, trying to hide in someone else’s arms after just leaving my side, you’re really making me sick to my stomach!”
With a forceful fling, Mia was catapulted a few steps away, stumbling back a few steps and hitting her head on a medical kit that was sitting on a shelf and immediately shook after being loaded by Mia, finally coming crashing down towards it.
She saw the medical box about to smash into her, but she didn’t react, instead she quietly closed her eyes, her heart was dead now, so why should she care about anything else?
Seeing that the medical kit was about to hit Mia’s head and she didn’t react in the slightest, Asher’s eyes darkened, anger welling up in the bottom of them, and he pulled her away violently, dodging the falling kit.
“Damn it, is this how you want to protest with me?” Yanking Mia over hard, Asher’s icy voice was laced with fury, but deliberately ignored the bile and heartache from earlier.
“Master Jun, my life, it seems, has nothing to do with you, and even if it is smashed, that’s my business, not yours.” Ignoring the stinging wound on her forehead, Mia looked up and said coldly.
Nothing could compare to the pain in her heart now, the pain that ripped through her and almost choked her.
She didn’t know why he was hurting her like this when he’d already forced her to leave? Would hurting her make him happier? Or, was he simply so disgusted with her that he kept punishing her in this way?
“Good, very good, you’ve only been away from me for a few days, and you’re actually able to resist in this way.” Asher’s expression was indifferent, a pair of biting eyes fixed on the pale Mia, “But, fortunately, I let you leave Jun’s house at that time, otherwise, keeping a woman like you around would really be a troublesome thing. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have been able to see you and Liam Jun making out, and you should be secretly thanking me in your heart now for making you whole, right?”
“What did you say?” Unbelieving that he would say such a thing, Mia’s eyes snapped wide with an innocent, hurt expression.
Did he really think that there was an affair between her and Liam Jun? Did he really think that she left Jun’s house just to be with Liam Jun?
Cool eyes finally sobered Mia when she saw Asher’s full face look, so he had decided long ago that she had left Jun’s house for Liam Jun. No wonder, after he knew she was carrying his child, he actually told her to abort the baby!
Despair mixed with hatred slowly welled up in her otherwise clear eyes.
“Do I have to repeat what you’ve done yourself?” Asher swept her away in disgust, what he hated most was this kind of woman who played mind games with her appearance, and she, was committing his biggest pet peeve.
Seeing Asher who hated her so much, Mia was silent, there was no point in her saying anything more now, he still wanted her to abort the baby and saying anything more would just make him think she was making excuses.
Mia closed her eyes in despair, hearing that her heart was locked and shackled and might never be opened, and that she would dust off the memories that belonged to him.
“No more words? Then I’ll be polite.” The tall body walked quickly toward her, and with a firm tug he lowered her to the clean white hospital bed.
There was no denying that she had whetted his appetite to the point where he could no longer be interested in other women.
Only for her to make it up to him!
“Let go of me!” Realizing what he was going to do next filled Mia’s heart with desperation and fear. She fought with almost all her strength, but couldn’t break free of Asher, and tears of humiliation came to her eyes indefinitely, wetting her dry eyes.
“No? Don’t forget you’re my pet, you do your duty to please me, I have the right to explore what I want and I don’t want to say it twice.”
“No!” Mia shrank back into the corner, her whole body shaking, her desperate eyes alert to the man approaching her.
“What do I want, I think you know best? What I want, I never fail to get!” Asher’s anger almost spilled out at the thought that it might be because of Liam Jun, the woman who was so resistant to him.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
Asher’s raging attitude was intimidating, not to mention the fact that Mia was like a lamb to the slaughter at the moment. Seeing the rage in his eyes, Mia knew there was no escape, and could only close her eyes in despair.
After an unknown amount of time, Asher finally left the ward, leaving Mia crumpled on the bed, her eyes listless and filled with despair and sorrow.
Like never before, she begins to hate Asher, the very man who not only made her abort the baby in her belly, but even forced her in the hospital, trampling her pride and self-esteem underfoot!
Mia, who was lying on the hospital bed, couldn’t help but stroke her long fingers on her slightly bulging belly, her eyes were complicated. For the sake of the baby in her belly, she could only live a good life, and as for Asher, she never wanted to see him again in her life!
