Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

Chapter 158 - Drowning

"No matter how much you hate me, you won't be able to get away from me. Even if you die, you are still mine!" Aiden shouted. 

"You…" Anya couldn't say anything.

Aiden pulled the tie around his neck, untying it a little hard. Due to his increasing emotions, his eyes became even more blurry. He saw two dark shadows and couldn't see clearly.

The doctor had warned him not to get too emotional. To ensure his recovery, he had to be in a good mood.

Aiden stumbled when he wanted to enter the bathroom. Anya could see that her husband was in trouble, but she didn't help him.

Aiden used his hands to feel the door as he tried to get into the bathroom and closed the door.

Anya could only be rooted in place. At this moment, her brain felt empty. She was worried about Raka's safety.

She was afraid that she would be the cause of Raka's death. What's more, she was afraid Aiden would be called a murderer.

Her anger, her guilt, and all her emotions seemed to be mixed up.

The cage at Aiden's house suddenly disappeared. Did Aiden really put Raka inside and drown him?

Where did he drown him? It was impossible for Aiden to go to sea because it was quite a distance and had to travel two hours by car. Did he drown him in the lake near the house?

Anya hurried downstairs and went to the garden. She got on her electric bike and went to the lake where she had a date with Aiden.

She circled the garden on her bicycle at night.

While driving, Anya called Nico, "Nico, didn't you ever ask me what the golden cage in the iris garden is for at home? Your uncle made it for Raka. Today, he caught Raka, locked him up and drowned him. Hurry up and find Harris and find a way to save your friend. Don't let your uncle become a murderer."

Nico was confused when he heard his aunt's chatter. He stared at his house's sofa while stunned and couldn't respond. What did his aunt actually say?

"Auntie, I can't hear you very well." Nico said calmly.

"Your uncle locked Raka and drowned him. He once warned me that if I met Raka again, he would really kill him. The confinement at home suddenly disappeared and Raka's cellphone was in your uncle's hand. Something must have happened to Raka." Anya shouted in panic.

"Oh." Nico reacted, scratching his head.

It turned out that the golden cage in the middle of the iris garden was for Raka.

"Auntie, where are you? Why can I hear the wind?" Nico asked calmly.

"I went to the lake near the house to find the place where your uncle drowned Raka." Anya also looked for the nearest doctor so she knew where to go after finding Raka.

"Auntie, are you worried about Raka's safety? Or are you worried that my uncle has become a murderer?" Nico asked.

"I do not know. I don't want anything to happen to Raka and your uncle. Nothing should happen to them." Anya said.

"Don't worry. I've left for Harris's house. I will look for him. Did you go out alone? Be careful." Said Nico.

"Quickly get help." Anya said frantically before hanging up the phone.

She circled the lake several times. Her voice grew hoarse from screaming but she got no answer at all.

An officer on patrol nearby approached her, "Miss, can I help you?"

Sweat flooded Anya's body, making part of her hair wet and dripping with water. Her face flushed with panic. She wanted to ask for help from the person in front of her. But if Raka did drown in the lake, how would Anya explain to them? When these people find Raka in a cage, what should Anya say?

It was impossible for Anya to say that all of this was Aiden's act.

At that moment, Aiden appeared just in time, "Anya, are you looking for me?" He said as he approached Anya.

Anya looked at Aiden's figure who suddenly appeared. She seemed lost for words.

"I ..." Anya stopped talking. She looked at the two officers before swallowing her saliva, "Thank you. I was looking for someone and now I've found him."

"Okay. It is late. You are a girl. Don't stay out too long. Hurry home." The officer said.

Anya nodded. After the officer left, Aiden gave Anya a cold look, "Are you here to find Raka's body?"

"Aiden, I was the one at fault. You can scold me, you can hit me. But don't be a murderer just because of me!" Anya shouted frantically, "Where is Raka? Hurry and save him. As long as Raka doesn't die, you will be fine."

"Who are you worried about? Him or me?" Aiden asked the same question as Nico.

"You idiot. You are my husband and I don't want my husband to be a murderer. If Raka was still alive, you wouldn't be labeled a murderer." Anya shouted. She couldn't hold herself back and finally bursted into tears. Why was Aiden doing all this?

"You care about me." Aiden said. His heart was melting. Anya was not worried about Raka, but worried if Aiden was considered a murderer.

"What's the use of saying that? A long time has passed. Raka must have…"

"Raka is fine. He was sleeping on the sofa at my house when Auntie called me." Said Nico as he approached Aiden and Anya calmly.

"Huh?" Anya lifted her head and looked at Nico. Her gaze was still clouded by tears. She couldn't believe what she had just heard.

"Raka is not dead. Are you happy?" Aiden said sarcastically.

Aya stepped forward angrily. She clenched her fists and hit Aiden's chest repeatedly while crying, "Are you happy to lie to me? Don't you know I'm scared to death? What if you go to prison for killing someone? What if you get executed? I will be a widow at a young age."

"You can remarry." Aiden angrily said.

"I don't want to get married again. You guys are all the same, all jerks! I don't care about you anymore." Anya cried irritably. She turned around, leaving Aiden and Nico. She walked over to her electric bicycle and held the steering wheel while crying.

All her strength seemed to have run out. She had traveled many times in this lake in great fear. Now that fear had become a huge resentment after finding out Aiden lied to her.

The louder she cried, the more she got irritated. She felt even sadder.

She really thought Aiden had killed Raka. She thought Aiden drowned Raka in this lake so she circled this lake many times in the middle of the night.

Anya was afraid of the dark, but she was still willing to go out in the middle of the night to find Raka, only because she was afraid that Aiden would become a murderer. She didn't want her husband to become a murderer.

If she could save Raka's life, Aiden would also be safe.

She didn't want Raka to die. But she was more afraid of Aiden's life being ruined by it and became a murderer just because of his jealousy.

But in the end, Nico said that Raka was fine and was sleeping on the sofa of his house.

Aiden lied to her and said that he killed Raka.

Anya believed Aiden's words. She was so scared that she looked for Raka like a fool. But Aiden and Nico only saw her ridiculousness.

Nico also knew that she was looking for Raka, but he did not immediately tell her that Raka was fine. Nico was silent and let Anya continue to look for something that didn't happen at all.

Did Nico and Aiden think of her as a fool?

Nico shrugged his shoulders, "Uncle, you caused all this. Finish it yourself. I'll go home."

"You are all bad people." Anya glared at Aiden and Nico while shouting angrily, "Aiden, I won't forget this day."
