Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

"I will not cancel my engagement to Natali in the meantime," Raka said in a calm tone.

Anya felt confused when she heard it. Actually, her purpose for calling Raka was not only to thank him for the flowers, but also to persuade Raka to cancel her engagement with Natali. As a friend, she did not want Raka to be used by Natali like this.

And this was the perfect time to leave that evil woman!

Anya knew that Natali took a chance when Raka was drunk to trap him and force him to get engaged with her.

But now, Natali had gone crazy. All her crimes had been exposed. Raka no longer needed to continue to be involved with that kind of woman.

"Raka, Natali's problem is not your responsibility. Don't blame yourself for everything that happened," said Anya.

When he heard Anya's words, Raka smiled unconsciously. "I know you think of my kindness. But Anya, have you ever thought about what awaits me if I cancel my engagement to Natali?"

"What?" Anya didn't understand.

"My family will arrange a new matchmaking with the woman I don't like. Right now, Natali won't be able to force me to marry her even if our engagement doesn't break. At least, I can hide for a while," Raka said with a bitter smile.

"Raka, as long as you open your heart, one day, you will find your true love," Anya said, consoling him.

"I have never forgotten you for the whole three years. I will always love you. Don't persuade me to accept other women. I can accept it when other people say it, but I don't want to hear those words from your mouth. You're too cruel," Raka whispered softly.

Anya didn't know what to say. In her heart, she only had feelings for him as a friend.

She would never forget the little boy who took her hand and took her away from the house of the Tedjasukmana Family.

"Raka, we must learn to look ahead and forget about the past," Anya said in a low voice.

"I need time. Maybe a year, maybe three years, or maybe longer. Certainly not not now. Please don't try to persuade me. Even though I love you, I promise I won't interfere with your life," said Raka.

"That is not what I mean. I don't think you are interfering with my life. I just hope you also get the same happiness I feel," Anya replied.

"As long as you are happy, I am also happy. So, you must always be happy, for me too…" Raka's voice softened when he said it.

"I promise, I will always be happy," Anya's eyes turned red at Raka's sincerity for her. She called Raka because she wanted to support and persuade him. But Raka made her want to cry instead.

During the day, Diana came back from the park and saw her daughter looking dazed.

"Anya, what's wrong?" Diana asked, bringing her vanilla crop.

"Nothing, mother. My jelly is ready. Do you want to try it?" Anya got up and headed towards the kitchen to take out her jelly from the refrigerator. "I made jelly with green tea, mango and lychee flavor. Which one do you want?" Anya explained one by one since Diana lost her sense of smell and couldn't smell food.

"I want the green tea one," said Diana.

"Mother, Mrs. Esther called earlier and said that she will go abroad for examination and treatment. She said there was a doctor from India who managed to cure a neurological disease. Do you want to come with her?" Anya asked.

Diana's hand immediately stopped from spooning jelly for a moment, but Anya could see the doubt in her mother's heart. "You are pregnant now. I want to accompany you. After all, not being able to smell a scent wouldn't affect my life. I'm used to living like this," she said casually, as if she had accepted her destiny.

"What if you can get better? I think you should try it. Don't miss this opportunity. Besides, I have Aiden and Mrs. Hana who always accompany me. I'm fine," said Anya.

Diana took her daughter's hand and shook her head firmly. "I can finally wake up from my long sleep and I just want to stay with my daughter. Besides, I won't be able to get on the plane for too long,"

Anya held back her mother's hand tightly and then rested her head on her mother's shoulder. "Mother, now you are healthier. There will be no problem during the trip. I also don't want to be separated from you and hope that you will accompany me when I give birth. So go now, Mom, and come back when I give birth. When you bring your grandchildren to the garden, you can tell them how the flowers smell like you used to tell me,"

That image flashed through Diana's mind, touching her heart. She hadn't even reached her 50. Should she live like this forever?

She also wanted to take her grandchildren to the garden, hold their little hands and teach them the smells of various plants.

"Should I try it?" Diana sounded doubtful.

"Of course! You can go with Ms. Esther!" Anya said excitedly.

However, Diana still looked doubtful and worried. "Alright then. When Aiden comes back tonight, you have to tell him. While mom is gone, you have to take good care of yourself,"

"Yes. I'll go to the office and come home with Aiden every day. Nothing will happen. Don't worry," Anya said, smiling happily.

In the evening, Anya told Aiden that her mother had agreed to go abroad for medication with Esther. Aiden immediately arranged a medical check-up for Diana, wanting to make sure that his mother-in-law was strong enough to make the long journey.

After that, he asked his subordinates to arrange procedures for Diana's travel and treatment abroad.

At dinner, Nico and Tara came for dinner. Not only that, they even robbed Anya's jelly and took it home.

Anya took the remaining jelly she made for Aiden.

In front of Aiden's study, Anya knocked gently on the door. "Aiden, are you busy?"

Aiden frowned as he was checking company documents. But after hearing his wife's voice, he immediately put down all the documents and stretched his body. "Come on in. What's wrong?"

"I brought you jelly. Earlier, Nico and Tara took it and brought it home. Damn thieves! Luckily, I already saved some," Anya put the jelly on Aiden's desk. "I made three flavors. Mango, lychee and green tea,"

Aiden took the small spoon that Anya brought and immediately tasted it. "It smells so good,"

Anya laughed hearing that. "Of course. I made it!" She said proudly.

Aiden put down the spoon and patted his thigh lightly. "Come here!"

Obediently, Anya walked over to Aiden and sat on his lap. The man's big hands immediately hugged Anya's waist, supporting her entire body weight so she wouldn't fall. The palm of his hand touched Anya's stomach which still looked flat.

This was the fruit of their love. Nobody knew how much Aiden looked forward to their child.

But God played with him instead. He hoped God was just playing with him.

He hoped all of that was just a lie.

Harris had arrived in Hong Kong to personally supervise Anya and Maria's DNA tests. This time, there wouldn't be any mistakes.

Anya felt that her husband looked a little unwell and lost in his thoughts. 

"Aiden, what's wrong? Is something bothering you?" She asked worriedly.
