Chapter 69 – Similar Figures
Inside Asher’s study.
Asher, dressed in a casual suit, sat in his boss’s chair, his face grim like the precursor of an incoming storm, and before him stood several black-clad bodyguards, their heads bowed and not daring to utter a word.
“No word from her by now?” After a long silence, Asher finally spoke coldly.
The black-clad bodyguard in the lead was shaken and nodded hastily in reply, “Back to Master Jun’s words, I brought many of my men and mobilized all my connections, but I just couldn’t find Miss Luo’s whereabouts!”
“Damn it, so many of you went looking for a woman and couldn’t even find one, so what do I usually keep you all for! It’s like a rice bucket!” Asher slammed the table, a dark tide raging under his eyes, and a dangerous and frightening aura radiating from his body.
So far, Mia has been missing for three days, he has sent many people to search for her and has also used almost all his connections, and he still hasn’t found Mia yet!
This woman, it’s like she disappeared from this earth without a word!
The black-clad bodyguard in the lead said again timidly, “Master Jun don’t be angry, this matter is indeed very strange. According to reason, even if Miss Luo left, she wouldn’t leave not a single trace behind. However, I have checked almost all the cars, planes and trains … , and no trace of Miss Luo can be found …”
“Alright, cut the crap, go out and look for it again, and if you don’t find it, you all don’t have to come back!” Waving his hand impatiently, Asher commanded with a cold face.
For the past three days, he had been restless, not even able to change his clothes, searching for Mia’s whereabouts.
But, no matter how many men he sent out, all he brought back was an answer.
Had the woman just bizarrely disappeared? And, still, disappeared from in front of him?
So, that time she asked him to take him to Liam Jun’s funeral was premeditated, and she had planned to take advantage of that opportunity to escape?
But why did his heart still swell with unease?
And so Asher waited anxiously for three more days, throwing numerous tantrums, only to remain frustrated that Mia seemed to have literally disappeared, never to be found again in any semblance of a trace!
This woman, she actually dared to disappear from his life again! If he finds out again, he won’t let her go easily!
Five years later.
Inside the Jun family villa, Jun Haotian looked at Grandpa Jun on the hospital bed with a puzzled look and said worriedly to Asher at the side, “Asher, I heard that there is a new doctor recently, although she is young, she is very skilled in medicine. If we can hire her, maybe your grandpa can still be saved.”
“Dad, don’t worry, I’ll fight for it only if there’s a chance that I can save grandpa. I’ll look up that doctor’s information right away and make an appointment with her, no matter what it takes, to make sure Grandpa’s surgery is done right!” Asher nodded.
Grandpa Jun has long had heart problems and has been able to support himself until now thanks to surgery. The death of Liam Jun five years ago dealt a fatal blow to Grandpa Jun and his health gradually began to deteriorate greatly.
“Asher, I heard that doctor has a meeting today at the People’s Hospital in this city, otherwise, you should go and take your chances.” Jun Haotian thought about it and admonished Asher, “Asher, your nature has always been rather cold, this time you are asking for help, you must …”
Asher interrupted, nodding his head towards the outside, “Don’t worry about it, Dad, I got it.”
As soon as he walked into the third floor of the hospital, he saw the dean and a few doctors walking together, laughing and joking. When he saw Asher, the dean immediately ran to him and asked respectfully, “Master Jun, are you here at the hospital? If something is wrong, just give the order.”
“Dean, I heard there’s a medical specialist in cardiology coming to the meeting isn’t there?” Asher looked towards a couple of doctors behind him, “I’d like to meet him.”
“Master Jun, you’re here at a bad time, she just left.” Dean pondered for a few seconds, quickly realizing who Asher was referring to and replied with a big smile on his face.
Asher sank his face and then asked, “So do you have his contact information so I can easily get in touch with him as well.”
“Master Jun, she … has a cold personality, it is difficult for people in general to get close, no, before the meeting was finished, she said it was no fun and left, no one dared to stop her.” Seemingly afraid that Asher did not believe, the dean added in a low voice: “It is said that she is just because she swore to study medicine since she was a child, she actually has a family business to inherit, so the frame is naturally a bit bigger, Master Jun do not be angry.”
“Okay, so tell me how I can find him.” Patiently listening to Dean ramble on, Asher asked in no uncertain terms.
The dean scratched his ears and thought for half a day, and finally tapped his head and said, “Master Jun, how about this, she will come to our hospital again recently, if she comes to our hospital, I will inform you immediately, what do you think?”
Knowing that nothing more could be asked, Asher grunted coldly, “I hope you’ll let me know soon!”
“Fine, fine, I will, I will, Master Jun please don’t worry!” Dean kept nodding his head and patting his chest for reassurance.
Asher scanned the area again and finally grimaced as he headed out of the hospital.
Walking to where he had parked his car, Asher was about to get into it when he saw a familiar figure not far away, he was shocked and when he looked again, he saw the figure get into the car and then disappear!
Standing frozen in place for half a day, Asher’s lips curled into a bitter smile, how could that woman be here when she’d been gone for five years!
I didn’t think that he, the titular Master Jun, would get half excited over such a similar figure!
Shaking his head, Asher got into the car, intending to go and find a place to relax. It had been a long time since his spirit had been almost constantly tightened because of Grandpa Jun’s illness!
“Hey Sissy, wait for me at the Nightmare Bar, I’ll be right after!” Asher pulled out his phone and found a random model’s number.
Sissy over there, still in disbelief, froze for a few seconds and immediately shouted, “Fine, fine, I’ll be there immediately, immediately …”
Without waiting for Sissi to finish, Asher had immediately hung up the phone and drove to the Nightmare Bar. Just as he got out of the car, he saw a freshly dressed Sissi already standing at the door, looking at him with affection, “Master Jun, I can’t believe you would look for me, I am so happy, I will definitely serve you well.”This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
With her chestnut wavy hair, delicate makeup, mixed face, and enchanting body, the eyes of the many men around her were locked on Sissi’s body. Her gaze, however, was locked on Asher alone.
This man that women all over the world wanted to marry, if she could get his favor, she would have a lifetime of inexhaustible glory and prosperity. So, no matter what, she must hold on to the man in front of her and not miss a single opportunity!
“Let’s not talk about it yet, go get a drink!” A flash of disgust flashed under Asher’s eyes the moment Sissy’s arm came up, but it was fleeting.
Sissy proudly looked around at the many women’s envy and jealousy, high-profile find a most lively and conspicuous seat to sit down, said in a delicate voice: “Master Jun, you feel like a dream now, I didn’t even think my dream would actually come true!”
As he spoke, Sissy’s soft, plump body had snuggled into Asher’s arms, a pair of white arms, snake-like, wrapped around his neck.
“I was feeling bored and asked you out for a drink.” Pushing the arm wrapped around his neck away without a trace, Asher said with an expressionless face.
He didn’t even bother to look for anyone, he was just looking for her because she had called a few days ago, so she was ahead in the call log, and she really thought she had a chance?
“Well then, I’ll drink with Master Jun first, and then I’ll keep Master Jun company when I’m done,” Sissy’s expression was a little awkward, but she quickly recovered and raised her glass with an ambiguous smile.
Asher lazily clinked his glass with her, looking up and idly scanning the room, his gaze scattered but with a stern air, the posture of a clear superior.
The bar was full of groups of men and women who had come to have fun, some gathered around to chat, some swaying to the music, and also some young men and women who had long been impatient to get to the dance floor, following the music and dancing together in an ambiguous affair.
“Master Jun, how about we go dance too?” Seeing Asher’s gaze, Sissy said knowingly.
Asher was about to refuse, but just as he saw a figure on the dance floor, his whole body shook and he yanked Sissy up and headed for the dance floor.
“Master Jun, what are you in such a hurry for, my … family,” said Sissy, with a smile on her face and a small pout.
Asher, however, didn’t even look at her, his dark eyes locked on a woman not far away, surprise and shock in the bottom of them.
The woman, dressed in a light blue dress, was gently swaying her body to the music within the dance floor with her eyes closed. The stunningly beautiful little face, the noble aura, the dimpled body, and the decent dress made the eyes of several men around her keep sweeping back and forth on her body.
“Master Jun, who is that woman?” Following Asher’s gaze, Sissy was immediately filled with jealousy, she didn’t expect that she was now in Asher’s arms while Asher’s attention was on another woman!
Asher twisted his head, glanced at her faintly, and said faintly, “She’s just a friend from before.”
After saying that, and ignoring Sissi’s face that was already losing its blood, Asher immediately turned his head towards the figure from earlier again.
But the figure was long gone!
