Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

That night, Mia was chased home by his grandfather. Originally, Mia did not want to come back, but his grandmother kept saying, “You’re just snatching my job. Hurry up and go home. I’m here.”

She had no choice but to pack up and go home.

When she returned home, Mia was originally afraid of running into Noah. However, when she reached home, she realized that Noah had not gotten off work yet. The lights at home were still dark. Mia was happy and relaxed. She did not have to face Noah. Hence, she went upstairs briskly to wash up before locking the door to rest.

When Noah finally finished the work that he had accumulated for the past few days, he saw that it was almost 12 o’clock. He hurriedly got up and went home. He had promised to explain to Mia and wait for him, but he went back so late.

When he reached home and saw Mia’s bag at the entrance, he felt a little more at ease. This meant that Mia was really waiting for him at home today. However, when he went upstairs and saw that there was still no one in the bedroom, he went to the door of the guest room. When he pushed the door open and could not open it, Noah knew that Mia was sleeping in the guest room again. It was already so late now. Noah was afraid of disturbing Mia’s rest, so he did not knock again.

When Noah woke up the next day, he quickly went to find Mia, but after knocking for a long time, there was no response. He pushed the door open and went in, only to realize that Mia had gone out again.

Noah felt a sudden surge of irritation. ‘What do you mean by hiding from me again? Am I that scary?’

After calming down, he began to think again. The main problem now was to resolve the trust issue between him and Mia. For now, Mia had almost no trust in him.

However, as the president of the Reynolds Corporation, he had always been arrogant and looked down on everyone. He had never been in a relationship before, but now, he had a fiancée. Moreover, all these years, besides Mia, his grandparents had practically given Noah everything he wanted.

So all these years, Noah had never coaxed anyone. Originally, he had thought that he had already coaxed Mia on the trip overseas, but in the end, there was trouble. Hence, Noah had a headache now. After all, Mia’s temper had been extremely good all these years. She had never been like this before. Now, she was making it difficult for him to do anything, so he could only seek help from his good friend again.

However, he did not expect his good friend to burst out laughing after hearing that. He had never seen Noah being angry before, nor had he ever seen Noah coaxing others. Now, it was rare, so he naturally wanted to mock Noah for having such a day.

Noah wanted to leave when he saw his good friend laughing so happily.

He had just stood up when his friend pulled him back. “What are you doing? How petty. What’s wrong with laughing at you? How are you going to appease Mia?”

“Quick, sit down. Fine. CEO Noah, I won’t laugh anymore. Let’s solve the problem.”

Noah sat down awkwardly.

Her friend casually said, “Mia stays at home every day, so it’s normal that she doesn’t understand your work and social circle. Since she doesn’t believe you no matter how you explain, bring her to business social engagements to take a look. Only after she had seen it herself will she understand.”

Noah thought so too.

So on another night, Noah cornered Mia at home early. Whether Mia wanted to or not, he pulled Mia out the door.

Mia was very unhappy when she heard that she had to go to a place with a lot of people. Mia didn’t like these social events in the first place, but Noah never listened to her opinions and didn’t care if Mia would like it or not.

Mia was pulled into the car. She had no choice but to cover her stomach with her clothes.

Noah brought her to many big bosses’ drinking parties. Everyone kept toasting. However, she did not expect Jack to be there too. The two of them had just met at the hospital two days ago. She did not expect to meet him at the drinking party again.

Her originally depressed mood became a little happy after seeing Jack and having someone she knew. Jack was the same. Jack didn’t want to come to this drinking party, but he didn’t expect to have an unexpected harvest.

It was just that such an occasion was not a good place to meet and chat. There was a strong smell of alcohol on the table, and all kinds of big bosses had removed their daytime disguises. Mia, who was sitting among them, was like a little white rabbit who had accidentally entered a wolf’s den. Jack really did not understand why Mia’s husband brought Mia to such a place. Looking up and seeing Mia’s slightly uneasy face, Jack gave her a comforting smile.

Seeing Jack smile, Mia felt better and smiled politely.

Beside her, Noah also noticed who Mia was smiling at, and his expression went dark. He lowered his voice and said to Mia, “He better stay away from you.”

Mia didn’t respond.

She wondered why Jack had to stay away from her. Jack was gentle, polite, and respectful to girls. He was so much better than him.

When she first met Jack, it was because she was bullied in school. Jack helped her beat up that person and even said something in school. From then on, no one dared to bully Mia anymore.

Seeing that Mia didn’t respond, Noah snorted. He suppressed his temper in front of so many people and didn’t flare up in public.

After drinking, the group of bosses started teasing each other about going to the bar. They even asked if it would be inconvenient for Noah to bring his wife along.

Noah showed a nonchalant expression. “I brought her out to see the world. There’s no need to worry about her.”

Hence, when they arrived at the bar, the bosses really didn’t have to worry about Mia anymore. They called over a few people to accompany them. There were students, models, and even a few celebrities whom they didn’t know by name but were familiar with.

Seeing this scene, Mia was a little shocked.

Noah quietly slipped his arm around Mia’s waist and leaned closer to whisper in her ear. “Look, I’m not lying to you. That’s how socializing works.”

Under such circumstances, if Noah did not bring Mia over, he would have to put on a show. It was a business deal, so there was no need to be serious.

Mia’s waist and stomach were extremely sensitive now. The moment Noah’s hand reached over, Mia’s hair stood up. She subconsciously slapped Noah’s hand away with quite a bit of force.

The sound was extremely loud. Noah was stunned in disbelief..
