Aiden saw Nico staring at him, begging for his help to explain everything.

However, Aiden instead said, "I will not discriminate against your preferences. It's up to you to like a man or a woman. But when bringing your boyfriend back home, be careful not to be seen by the family. If this news reached your mother's ear, I am afraid that your mother will not be able to accept it." Aiden said sincerely.

​​

"Yes. Be careful. At least think about your mother." Anya said.

Nico really wanted to cry to hear that. Why did he naively hope that his uncle would help him?

Even if he explained, Anya would not believe him. It was better if he kept quiet and accepted the fact that he liked men. He wouldn't be able to explain it even if he was foaming at the mouth.

And to make matters worse, his aunt and Tara were now close friends! If Anya told this to Tara, his plan would fail!

"Auntie, I just haven't found the right woman. Lately, I feel like I'm getting closer to Tara. Please help me. Don't tell her this!"

Nico really wanted to deny it, but Aiden didn't want Anya to find out that the man he brought in his house at that time was Raka.

Raka's name had become taboo in this house and could not be mentioned at all.

"I like Tara. She is a simple and honest woman. Everything she felt was clearly painted on her face. Meanwhile, I know that you like men and are only using them as an excuse to run away from matchmaking. If I help you, wouldn't that be the same as hurting Tara?" Anya said, frowning. She didn't want to betray her new friend.

"Auntie, the friendship between me and my friend is not as dirty as you think. Would you believe me if I said that I still like women?" Nico asked helplessly.

Anya shook her head and looked at Aiden, "Aiden, do you believe Nico?"

"I don't believe it either!" Aiden replied on purpose.

"Why don't you believe me? Do I have to get married and have children so you can believe in me?" Nico asked irritably.

Aiden just smiled at Nico, looking satisfied when he frustrated his nephew.

Nico snorted angrily, "Uncle, anyway I don't want to marry Natali or Raisa. If you guys don't want to help me get close to Tara, then at least don't bother me. I'll do it myself."

"Are you serious about Tara?" Anya asked.

"I feel comfortable with her. I even stole snow lotus flowers for you so I could be with her." Nico said excitedly.

"Speaking of flowers, I asked for your help to find an expert but you couldn't get it. You're not like Harris who can take care of everything easily!" Anya said irritably.

Aiden immediately entered good husband mode and admonished Nico for his wife, "Nico, can't you finish such a small task?"

Nico just frowned, "Uncle, aunt asked for a professional expert with a low salary. Where can I find someone like that?"

"Harris already got it for me. You always say you can't even though you haven't tried it. Can you help me a little so that your uncle doesn't work too hard? He also needs rest!" Anya scolded him with a serious face.

Nico's eyes widened, but he saw the devil behind Anya, who supported his aunt for whatever reason. He could only be silent without responding.

"Uncle, I was wrong. Next time auntie needs help I'll go through water and fire to help her!" Nico said, exaggerating.

Anya immediately clapped and said happily, "Is it true? What a coincidence! I need your help right now!"

Nico looked at Aiden. His eyes seemed to accuse Aiden, 'Uncle, you know auntie deliberately set me up like this because she needed my help. Why don't you care about me?'

Aiden just replied with a cold gaze. His gaze said, 'As long as your aunt is happy, I'll let you do anything. If she wants the moon, you must go to get it!'

"Auntie, what can I do for you?" The smile on Nico's face didn't look happy. In fact, it looked like he wanted to cry.

This morning, Esther said that she was very satisfied with Anya's perfume samples and agreed to launch the product during a mall event to see visitor's reactions.

However, the perfume must go through various procedures in order to be sold. The perfume must be checked and approved, and the patent rights would be registered. Only after then it could be sold in general.

"The Rose Scent perfume formula has spread on the internet so that the perfume cannot be sold when the mall is holding an event. We are running out of time to launch new products by then. I have made two new perfumes, but I have yet to get approval and cannot sell them in general. Can you help me speed up the inspection and approval process?" Anya asked.

Nico turned to look at Aiden, "Auntie, can't you ask Uncle for help in this matter?"

"I've asked Aiden to name my perfume. I can't trouble Aiden anymore. This time, I'm asking your help with the review and approval process. If all goes well, I won't be angry with you again about yesterday's troubles." Anya said while looking like a generous aunt.

"Your aunt has given you a chance so you can make up for your mistakes. You should be grateful." Aiden looked at Nico meaningfully.

Nico could only force his lips to smile, "Thank you, Auntie, for giving me this precious opportunity. This morning, give it all to me. I'll help you complete the procedure before the mall starts the event."

"If you do it successfully, I will give you a reward!" Anya said.

Suddenly Nico's eyes lit up when he heard the word reward, "What kind of reward?"

"Hmm… It's a secret. But I'm sure you will like it!" Anya replied.

"I'm looking forward to it!" Nico said. After hearing the word reward, the resentment in his heart had already halved.

He guessed that his aunt would give him a bottle of perfume. No matter what the gifts were, Nico really liked them. This way, he felt happier when doing the task that Anya had given him.

…

After breakfast, Anya immediately went to Rose Scent for work. Meanwhile, Aiden went to the office for a company meeting.

Later in the afternoon, they would meet the doctor who handled her mother so that Anya had to finish all her work in the morning.

At exactly eight in the morning, Anya entered the Rose Scent. Mila, the new store manager and Aiden's confidant, was having a morning meeting with the other employees.

"Good morning, Miss Anya!" Mila greeted her with a smile.

Anya also smiled as she replied to Mila's greeting, "Good morning. Please continue. I'll change clothes first."

"Mrs. Esther is waiting for you at the office." Mila said before Anya left.

"Thank you." Anya nodded her head and immediately headed for the changing room. After changing into work clothes, she immediately went up to the second floor to meet Esther.

Esther looked surprised when she saw Anya wearing her work clothes, "Anya, why are you still wearing that uniform?"

"Miss Esther, I am still your assistant. I'll keep working in the specialty perfume manufacturing area below. I hope nothing changes to Rose Scent." Anya said with a serious look.

Esther nodded, "Harris explained everything to me yesterday. Today, I visited the Atmajaya Group company to sign a contract as general manager at Rose Scent. Actually, what position do you want in this place?"

"I want to be the head parfumeur. But I still need a lot to learn so I decided to learn from you." Said Anya with a smile.

"There is nothing I can teach you. Even though Diana has lost her smell, she has taught you very well. You can already mix various ingredients. Experience is all you need." Esther said, remembering something, "There will be a perfume contest in October. I was invited to be the judge. Do you want to register?"
