Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 55
Advertisement
Anya tried to call Aiden one last time. The phone was on for quite a while, but Aiden didn't pick up. When he was about to hang up the phone, Anya realized that the call was already connected. Aiden had already picked up the phone.
"Hello, are you still busy? Am I bothering you?" Anya asked in a low voice.
"Hmm… No. What is wrong?" Aiden replied briefly. He was in a bad mood so he didn't want to talk at length.
Anya could feel it from far away so she felt a little doubtful, "I've been hired. Tomorrow I will start working to get to know the shop and Rose products. After that I will help perfumers to make perfume." Anya explained. Her way of telling stories was not like someone who was overly excited about being hired. She still felt shocked and confused because of her meeting with Raka. Plus, she was a little scared because she had to ask Aiden's permission.
"So? Do you want to leave your blind husband at home, to pursue your dreams?" Aiden replied wryly. What he said did sound absurd, but he couldn't help feeling annoyed knowing Anya had met Raka. If only he could, he really wanted to lock away his wife at home so that she wouldn't have to meet any man.
Anya felt her body shudder even though she didn't come face to face with Aiden directly. She knew that Aiden was upset. Maybe because she didn't let go and immediately promised to come to work tomorrow.
"I went to work at 8 and came home at 5. After that I wasn't going anywhere. I will go home to be with you." Anya said softly. She tried to persuade Aiden. She couldn't lose this job!
There was no answer from the other side, but Anya knew that Aiden had not given her permission.
"Aiden..." She whispered softly, "I really want this job."
Anya didn't realize that Aiden felt his heart melt when she begged him. If that woman begged him in this manner, how could Aiden possibly refuse. He just took a deep breath, "Alright," He said simply.
Anya was shocked when she heard this. She never thought she could persuade Aiden this easy, "Really?"
"Hmm ... Tomorrow I'll go abroad again and I'll come back next week." Aiden said.

'Abroad again? Didn't Aiden just come home?' It seemed like Anya had married the busiest man in the world.
"What time do you leave tomorrow? I will take you to the airport." Said Anya.
"No, the airport is too far from home. After you get home from work, you better take a break." Those words should have sounded caring, but somehow Anya felt Aiden saying it coldly.
"I am your wife. Of course I have to take you there." Said Anya.
Aiden snorted at Anya's words. Previously, Anya did not want to reveal her status as Aiden's wife, but now she openly claimed that she was Aiden's wife.
"Are you mad at me? Because I didn't ask permission first and decided right away that I'm going to work tomorrow?" Anya carefully asked. She didn't want to make Aiden even more angry.
"No." Aiden replied curtly. He was not angry because of that. He was annoyed because Raka suddenly met Anya.
Even though Aiden's lips said no, Anya knew that the man was angry with her, "I'm sorry," She said in a low voice. She really couldn't give up this job. So, the only thing she could do was apologize to Aiden.
Aiden didn't answer because he knew Anya herself didn't understand why he was angry. Anya did not know that Aiden was upset because of her meeting with Raka.
"Hurry home." Anya continued after not getting any answer from Aiden.
"Hmm ... I'll be home soon." Aiden said, hanging up the phone. Indeed, this woman was the only person who could melt his cold heart. He couldn't be mad at this woman for too long, especially after hearing her sad tone when she asked him to come home soon.
Harris watched all this in amazement. Never once had he seen Aiden behave like this in his life.
"Sir, are you really going overseas for treatment this soon?" He asked.
Harris felt this was not the right time for Aiden to leave. What if Raka took the opportunity while they parted ways to approach Anya? Or even kidnapping Anya? Harris couldn't imagine how Aiden would react if that really happened!
"Raka suddenly returned to Indonesia and Ivan will also be back soon. I can't wait too long. The problems will build up even more." Aiden's face looked calm as he said this. However, his lips were thinning and also tightened, showing that he really didn't want to do it either. But he had no other choice.

Harris was not against it, but there was one question that came to mind, "Sir, with your abilities, you could easily run away even if you were caught. But instead you become blind and paralyzed by the accident. At that time… At the time of the accident, was Mrs. Anya with you?"
Harris knew Aiden's abilities well. Aiden was very good at martial arts. His instincts were strong and his reflexes were also very fast. There was no way Aiden could be caught easily by his enemy and become blind and paralyzed like this when he was alone. Seeing Aiden's attitude towards Anya, as well as from the various information he got, Harris guessed that Aiden was not alone at that time. Anya was there too.
"Hmm ..." Aiden did not dodge this time. He just muttered incoherently.
Harris immediately looked at Aiden in surprise. Although he had guessed it, he did not think that it was true, "What really happened to you at that time? Does it have something to do with Mrs. Anya?"
Aiden's mouth closed tightly. He didn't want to answer that question.
"Sir, maybe if Mrs. Anya can regain her memory, she can help us to solve this problem." Said Harris.
"No need." Aiden replied without looking at Harris. He stared at the closed window with a curtain, a window that had never opened since his eyes were injured.
His memory drifted to the accident that occurred last year. An accident that made Anya lose her memory. An accident that made Aiden lose his ability to walk and his eyesight.
At the time, the doctors in charge of him said that maybe Aiden would spend all of his time in a wheelchair, unless a miracle happened.
Those words didn't discourage Aiden. He didn't wait for a miracle to come, he decided to create the miracle himself. He went through rehabilitations, thousands of physiotherapy, none of which made him complain until finally he managed to get up. His dark and lightless world slowly began to look brighter. The hazy shadow slowly grew clearer. That experience made Aiden's heart appreciate life more. However, his heart was still cold.
Until in the end, fate brought him back with Anya. The only woman who could melt his heart.
He would never let go of that woman's hand again.
He could create miracles by getting up again and he would also find out the truth of the accident that happened one year ago.
For Anya, the accident was a painful memory. Aiden felt it was better if she didn't remember him.
'As long as Anya is happy...���
"Sir, you really love your wife." Said Harris. He did not ask this question, but confirmed it. He could see how Aiden's face, which was always cold and stiff, immediately turned soft when he heard Anya's name, as if he was thinking about it and imagining it.
"Harris, this time I'll go alone. You stay at home and report to me if there is new information about Raka." Aiden ordered him.
Harris immediately understood what Aiden meant. Aiden asked him to take care of Anya so that Raka would not come back to her, "Yes, sir. I will make sure Raka Mahendra will not approach."
"Tell several bodyguards to guard Anya 24 hours. Imel has started paying attention to Anya lately." Aiden reminded Harris once again.
Harris frowned when he heard the orders. He felt that Aiden must work extra hard to protect Anya, even though he himself had gone to great lengths to solve his own problems.
"Sir, I don't want you to have weaknesses." Harris said.
As a friend, of course Harris didn't want anything to happen to Aiden. Especially now that Aiden had someone he had to protect besides himself. Harris didn't understand what was so special about Anya. According to him, Anya was a burden for Aiden.
"Harris, Anya may indeed be my weakness. But she is also my shield. My world has become bright because of Anya." Aiden's expression softened as he said this as if he was imagining his wife's face.

Apostle of the Goddess
A disappointed man dreams of leaving the confines of Earth and living adventures in fantastic realms...Suddenly, his wish is granted... Albeit in a far different way from what he could have expected. An isekai genre story with a few elements from LitRPG. The overall tone will be jumping back and forth from light to dark. Expect a lot of references to anime, manga, games, etc.It is written in first-person view and will contain a side-story using a "real-life" character. Initially, the MC will be writing the story as a true journal, so the prologue and first chapters may appear a mess of things that already happened, journal entries, and afterthoughts. A few chapters in, it will change into a normal, first-person manner retelling of what happened (storywise the character "Records" what happened to him). This is a side project of mine, so I will be uploading a few chapters per month. Chapters may have a severe difference in length (albeit I will try to maintain them around 3k), but expect the overall monthly word count to be not less than 15k words.Author recommendation, if you intend to follow the story, read the new updates once a month (counting from the day the first chapter is uploaded). Content Warning: I do intend to include a few disturbing moments to emphasize the darkness of the human (and other beings) nature, so please consider that even though some chapters (especially the starting ones) are kinda like a comedy routine.
