Mrs. Hawn, Your Disguise Was Penetrated

Chapter 98 - 95 Nora Looked Like Mia

Asher fell silent.

He opened the drawer of his bedside table, took out a cigar, and lit it with a lighter.

Asher's long fingers were holding the cigar, and amidst the smoke, his handsome face was cold and his eyebrows were furrowed, showing faint sadness.

The cigar was glimmering. It was not until the cigarette was burnt out that Asher spoke in a deep voice, "Mia… was the girl who was kidnapped with me when I was young."

Kidnapped?

Nora frowned slightly.

If she remembered correctly, Asher had asked her several times.

"Nora, have you ever been kidnapped before?"

"Nora, have you really never been kidnapped?"

In the past, Nora thought Asher's question was simply inexplicable, but now that she thought about it carefully, it seemed that Asher had taken her for Mia?

Or rather, Asher had taken her as Mia's replacement?

Asher said lightly with a sad look, "I was the target of the kidnappers when Mia just happened to pass by and got involved because of me. We were locked up together in a dark cabin and spent a few dark days together."

"And what happened after that?" Nora asked in a low voice.

For some reason, she suddenly wanted to know the story between Asher and Mia.

There was infinite sorrow on Asher's handsome face, "After that, Mia fell off the cliff for saving me."

Asher did not want to recall the sad past that was sealed deep in his memory.

At that time, he was not able to save Mia and could only watch her fall into the abyss.

He never gave up his search for Mia all these years.

However, he found nothing.

Nora went silent.

Little did she know that there was such a heartbreaking story between Mia and Asher.

Mia fell off a cliff to save Asher, and was probably gone.

It was no wonder Asher could not forget Mia.

"Do I look very much like Mia?" After a moment of silence, Nora suddenly opened her mouth and asked.

Asher was stunned.

At that time, Mia was just a little girl and did not grow up, and they were locked in a dark room, so Asher's memory of Mia's appearance was actually just a blur.

However, the kindness and warmth that Mia showed him was engraved in his mind.

Many times when he was alone with Nora, he had the illusion that Nora was Mia.

It was because Nora had the same faint scent as Mia and Nora gave him exactly the same feeling as Mia.

Thinking of this, Asher gave Nora a deep look and spoke in a deep voice, "Yes, very much like her."

Nora's heart sank inexplicably.

She finally understood why Asher sometimes had done those flirtatious things to her, why he had defended her from the knife, and why he had made every effort to help her find evidence when Sarah had falsely accused her.

And why he had said "Maybe we can try to develop a relationship?" just now.

It was all because... she looked like Mia.

Nora took a few deep breaths, her eyes fell on the man beside her, and she spoke in a cold voice,

"Asher, listen, I am Nora and I am unique in this world! I am not Mia or anyone's stand-in!

My future husband must love me with all his heart. He must love only me in his heart and not treat me as a stand-in for any other woman!

Therefore, Asher, it would never have worked between us!"

After saying these words, Nora picked up the thin blanket on the bed, went straight to the sofa, and lay down.

Nora's firm words lingered in Asher's ears. Looking at her walking towards the sofa without hesitation, Asher narrowed his eyes slightly with mixed feelings inside them.

He himself could not tell if it was because of Mia that he was attracted to Nora.

He only knew that at this moment, all his heartwas occupied by Nora.

It was late at night.

Nora lay on the sofa tossing and turning when all the detailed memories of the past month with Asher came to her mind involuntarily.

In all honesty, Asher was indeed an excellent man as grandfather said, talented, good-looking, capable, and important, who stood at the top of the pyramid.

However, his heart had already been given to the girl named Mia.

Nora had always been a perfectionist, especially when it came to love.

What she wanted was complete love, not a stand-in for someone else.

Asher's heart belonged to Mia, which made it impossible for the two of them.

The two of them had a sleepless night.

At dawn, Nora woke up with two dark circles under her eyes and Asher also had a haggard and tired look on his handsome face.

Howard came to open the door for them in a good mood, and what he saw was the exhausted looks of both of them.

It seemed that last night... the food had not been wasted on Asher.

Howard had an ambiguous smile on his face, "Take it easy, young people. Don't indulge in sensual pleasures."

Nora: ...

What did the grandfather imagine?

When Nora arrived at the office, she was still thinking about the story about Mia and him that Asher had told her last night.

Since Asher was in love with Mia and couldn't forget her, Nora decided to do him a favor.

Nora sent a message to Anthony, [Find out someone for me.]

Anthony quickly gave her a reply, [Who do you want to look for?]

Nora quickly typed on the screen, [The girl who was kidnapped with Asher ten years ago has the nickname Mia.]

Anthony complained, [Ten years ago... Ada, is there any other information?]

Nora replied, [That's all I know. Give me the results as soon as possible.]

Anthony had no choice, [Okay...]

Anthony's abilities were highly regarded by Nora. Anthony had always been able to complete the tasks she gave him quickly.

But this time, Anthony did not reply for a long time.

Nora waited until the evening and couldn't wait any longer, so she gave Anthony a call, "How's the investigation I asked you to do?"

At the other end of the line, Anthony changed his usual playful face into a serious on while he said, " Ada, nothing can be found."

Nora was stunned.

Nothing could be found?

How could that be?

Anthony could not have found out nothing with his ability.

"I'm sorry, Ada, I've tried my best to investigate, but... I really can't find anything about her." There were guilt and self-doubt in Anthony's voice, "Maybe, it's because my skills are not up to scratch. Ada, you should try it yourself."

"All right, I got it."

After hanging up the phone, Nora wrinkled her brow.

What kind of a girl was Mia?

What had exactly happened that day. Where had Mia gone?

Why couldn't even Anthony find her?
