Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

Chapter 842 - The New Secretary

"Mother, he doesn't feel guilty for everything he did. He refuses to take medication and he hates us. It's better if you just divorce him," Anya said as she walked out of the company.

"People can only appreciate what they have after they lose it. Auntie, no matter what decision you make, I will always support you," Jonathan said.

"I've been married to him for more than 20 years and I can't bear to leave him alone. To be honest, I really envy Diana and Maria. They can survive on their own. But your father… He was not actually a bad person. He's just too stubborn. We must not give up just because of this problem. Anya, you've also been sick and depressed once. You can understand that feeling, right? Your father is as sick as you used to be. Give him a little time," Indah still felt sorry for Galih and couldn't bear to leave him alone.

Anya was silent and could not say anything.

Currently, Galih is not aware of his own mistakes. He kept saying that Anya was a disaster for him. Because of Anya's birth, his family went through so many hardships.

He felt that Keara was his lucky star. But because of Indah, he couldn't save Keara's life. He felt that Indah was the cause of all this.

Nobody really knows if Galih wants to save his biological daughter, or Keara, his lucky star.

Nobody knows if Galih is thinking about his daughter or only thinking about himself.

Maybe what he really thought was not Keara, but the luck that she gave to Galih since she was born.

"Mom, it's been more than 20 years and he isn't trying to take me seriously. He had never wanted me to go back to the Pratama Family, but he made you think that he's looking for me too. He blamed me for everything that happened. He always thought that I was the one who made him suffer losses in his life," Anya said sadly.

Indah knows Galih very well. If the man had not gone to prison and experienced this kind of change, perhaps he would never have said what was in his heart.

In the eyes of outsiders, Galih will still be a good man. Other people think that he really loves Indah. But they don't know that Galih considers Indah's biological daughter a disaster.

All his life, he only loved Keara. Even though Keara had done many bad things, he still loved his cruel daughter.

However, after the change in his attitude, he dared to say what he harbored in his heart. Although painful, nobody could deny the fact that the Pratama Family faced their worst time after Anya was born.

"Anya, don't blame your father. It was not easy for him to bear the burden of the entire Pratama Family alone. He may still be old-fashioned and believe in mystical things, but it's all because of the burden he is carrying." Until now, Indah is still trying to defend Galih.

Anya looked at Jonathan helplessly, "Brother, did you know that mother was almost strangled to death? She managed to survive, but she defended that person who intended to kill him! Isn't that a disorder? I don't think father is the only one who needs treatment, mother too."

Jonathan laughed, "I think aunty's words make a lot of sense. Now all of us are no longer involved with the Pratama Group. Uncle won't suspect us anymore. Maybe he can think calmly after this."

"Is that so? I think he will divorce my mother and kick her out of the house. After that, he would not recognize me as his child and give a penny to me and my mother. After all, what did he give me after acknowledging me as her daughter?" Anya pouted.

"The land where Iris Parfume Academy is built belongs to Aiden, but your father built the school. You can't say that he didn't give you anything. He wanted to give his shares to you so that you become the largest shareholder in the company. You don't want to run the company, not because your father didn't give you permission. But it's all because of your wish," Indah immediately defended Galih.

Anya shrugged her shoulders. "I don't care about this sick bastard anymore," she was too hurt for his father.

"When you were sick, you left your husband and children. Who blamed you? Your father is sick right now and he is hurting. As a family, we must help him recover. One day, if your father and I are not together anymore, I hope that your relationship with him will not be affected. You will always be his daughter, right?" Indah said calmly.

At that moment, Anya finally realized her mother's good intentions.

"Mother, you don't want me to be hostile to father. You wish I had a family that always supported me. Even though he hurt you, you still held on for me. But I don't need any of that! I have Aiden, and also Jonathan. Even without the Pratama Group, I still have Brother Jonathan and Srijaya Group. Even though Lisa is married, she will still be a member of the Srijaya Family and we'll support each other." Anya hugged Jonathan's arm and said, "I will always have Big Brother Jonathan to help me!"

"Auntie, don't worry, I will take care of Anya. Aiden also loves her very much. Her life will always be happy," said Jonathan.

"Still, I don't want you to hate your father," said Indah.

Galih stood in front of his office window, looking down.

He was Indah, Anya and Jonathan walking towards their car. They walked freely and decided to part with the Pratama Group.

Galih knows that this is their way of showing that they love him. This is their way of showing that their love is not because of the assets or wealth that Galih possessed.

But still, the man couldn't get past the obstacles in his heart. After he entered the prison, he could not control Indah.

Indah refuses to give the best treatment for Keara. Before Keara died, no one knew that Keara had tried to commit suicide.

Anya is indeed his daughter but Keara is also his biological daughter.

In his heart, he always felt that Keara was much better than Anya. But he had to lose the daughter he loved so much just because of his other daughter.

Anya has everything in this life. She has a brilliant job and a husband who loves her very much. Her life is very happy and splendid.

Meanwhile, Keara suffered so much that she had to die in the most pathetic way.

All this happened after Anya returned to their life.

If Galih was destined to only have one child in this world, he would definitely choose Keara without hesitation.

But fate played with him. The daughter who brought luck to him had to leave him instead.

He didn't know Anya very well because of their separation, but now Anya is the only successor of his family.

Now, the only thing he has is a daughter whom he considers a disaster.

…

Indah moved into Diana's house just at the start of summer.

She and Diana worked together in the garden every day. Planting flowers, pulling weeds, growing vegetables and so on…

In the afternoon, as the sun was getting higher in the sky, they woke up from their nap, drinking tea while chatting.

Right on Jenny's birthday night, news came from  the Pratama Group. Galih recruited a new secretary and that person was Jessica.

Eka, Jessica's father, had a stroke. He wanted his daughter to take over their family's overseas company at first. But Jessica was too young and needed a lot of experience so she turned to Galih for help.

Galih thought about their past friendship. Also, Eka's company has become Aiden's now.

For those reasons, he finally decided to help Eka and Jessica.

Therefore, Jessica became Galih's new secretary. She is very hardworking and serious in her work. She is also very kind and obedient to Galih.

The news is not really important. But the new secretary that Galih has just recruited is Jessica. And this is exactly why it can complicate their problem further.
