Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

Chapter 277 - Business Matters

"Auntie, are you eavesdropping?" Nico whispered from beside Anya.

Anya felt very embarrassed when she saw Nico. How could she have forgotten that Nico was in this house?

"If I said no, would you believe it?" Anya could only take a deep breath.

"I also heard that Keara wanted to cancel her engagement with Uncle Ivan and return to Uncle Aiden. But you must remember that relationships cannot work only by one person. If she wanted to come back, she had to ask my uncle's approval. So, you don't need to worry," Nico said, trying to comfort Anya.

"Ha ha..." that bland laugh came from Anya's lips.

She also thought the same thing as Nico before. If indeed Keara wanted to get back together with Aiden, it did not necessarily mean Aiden wanted the same thing.

Wouldn't his pride be tarnished if he took back the woman who cheated on him?

However, Anya's prediction was wrong.

When she saw Aiden hugging Keara's waist and their lips touching, Anya was already defeated.

She had no place on Aiden's side.

Nico scratched his head and said, "Auntie, I don't understand why you laugh like that."

"Nico, tell all the servants to gather in the living room," Aiden said coldly. He then caught up with Anya with his long steps.

"What do you want to do, Uncle?" Nico looked at Aiden in surprise.

"The servants of the Atmajaya Family have been bribed to put medicine in my wine. Then, there are people who enter my room and put things that are not mine to destroy my relationship with my wife. You know I won't tolerate something like this. I'm going to find the person today," Aiden said coldly.

Anya was silent for a moment. So Keara's photo in Aiden's room wasn't his, but someone put it there on purpose?

Nico raised a bag in his hand. "Is this what you mean? Maybe the maid misplaced these things. Uncle Ivan's room is right next door. Looks like this is not on purpose,"

The party just finished. Maria was still at the event hall escorting the guests home one by one and arranging for the maids to clean the room. She hadn't even had time to come back and rest.

Right now, it seemed impossible to gather all the servants.

Anya held Aiden's hand. "Aiden, Sister Maria is busy and told all the servants to clean the event room. How about you ask for this tomorrow?"

"Yes, uncle. It's better off tomorrow," after saying that, Nico gave the bag he was carrying to one of the servants. "Save this stuff."

The servant glanced at Aiden and saw that his Master was furious. He didn't dare say anything. He immediately took the bag in Nico's hand and hurried downstairs without looking back.

"You two talk. I'll go back to the room first," Anya continued her steps and walked to the room.

"There are no secrets between you and me," Aiden followed Anya and entered the room together.

"Uncle, how about me?" Nico fell silent in his place.

Anya looked at Nico. "Come in. Talk to Aiden inside,"

"Oh," Nico scratched his head. He felt uncomfortable. It was better for him to report this problem in the study. But it seemed Aiden didn't want to leave Anya.

Following Aiden and Anya into the room, he took a deep breath, worried about the intimacy of his uncle and aunt.

After entering the room, Anya immediately sat on her bed and pretended to play with her cellphone.

Aiden's room had a quite large balcony. He used to spend his time there on sunny days.

At that time, he was still recovering so he had to stay at the Atmajaya Family house. That way, Maria could take care of him more easily.

After several months, Aiden slowly moved into his own house. He also did the exercises and rehab on his own because he didn't want to be confined in the house any longer.

The table and chairs and flower pots that decorated the balcony were still in the same place. It's just that, the owner had never returned.

"Sit here," Aiden invited Nico to speak on the balcony.

Nico glanced at Anya and saw that his aunt was busy playing with her cellphone. Anya seemed unconcerned with their conversation.

"Uncle, I want to develop the land with Raka," Nico went to one of the chairs and held it. But he didn't dare to sit in front of his uncle because he was too nervous.

Aiden leaned back in the chair lazily. His fingers tapped the handle of the chair and he said seriously. "You want to develop it together with Raka, or Raka suggested you take over this project together with him?"

"Raka suggested it, but I want to do it together with him. Can you kick Deny out of this project and let me and Raka finish this project together?" Nico asked.

Aiden didn't say anything. His fingers continued to move, but his eyes were fixed on Nico. Nico could feel the hair on his back all up.

"Uncle, I know you want to give me the opportunity to grow, lead projects and build my own reputation in the Atmajaya Group. But without your help, I would never have been able to finish this project alone. If you cooperate with Raka, you can relax more…"

"I can only be calm if I do everything by myself. If you cooperate with Raka, not only do I have to watch over you, but also watch over him. I'll be much more tired," Aiden interrupted impatiently.

Nico tried to persuade Aiden. "Uncle, let me try it! I really want to lead this project and I have faith in Raka. Raka will never trick me,"

"Does that mean you two don't want me to be involved in the project you're working on?" Aiden finally realized what Nico meant.

"Yes, that's what Raka wants. If you don't agree, the Mahendra Family will develop their own project and let you do whatever you want to Raisa," Nico studied Aiden's face closely.

When she heard Nico's words, Anya's eyes finally turned from her cell phone's screen. She unconsciously looked at Aiden.

"Raka is willing to hand over Raisa?" Aiden asked with a smile.

"The lawyer said that the crime that Raisa has committed will likely only earn her a prison sentence of less than three years. If Uncle doesn't agree to cooperate, they will find the greatest lawyer for Raisa, try to reduce her sentence and let Raisa learn the lesson for her actions," Nico explained Mahendra Family's plan to Aiden.

Aiden turned to look at Anya. "Anya, what do you think?"

"This is your business problem. I don't understand," Anya pretended to be stupid and didn't want to express her opinion.

"Raka is like a sleeping lion. Once he's given the chance, he will wake up. This project is carried out by the Atmajaya Group to build Nico's reputation. But once Raka intervened, all his awards would be won by him. That's not good for Nico," Aiden said.

"Then, make an agreement with Raka that this project will be led by Nico and Raka will follow all his orders. We can't let Raka steal Nico's reputation," Anya replied.

Anya agreed to the cooperation knowing very well that if they didn't reach an agreement, Raisa would be jailed. Then, the Atmajaya Family and the Mahendra Family would forever be enemies.

If the Tedjasukmana Family sold the land to the Mahendra Family and did not participate in the construction, then all the profits would be taken by Raka and his family.

"Do you hear that?" Aiden glanced at Nico.

Nico's eyes lit up immediately after hearing Anya's suggestion. He said excitedly, "Uncle, does that mean you agree with this plan as long as I lead the project?"
