Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 148

Aiden's body stiffened as Anya hugged him. His hand landed on Anya's shoulder, about to push her body away from him.
"Aiden, don't throw me out. Don't move away from me." Anya buried her head in Aiden's chest and her hands hugged Aiden tighter. Aiden could feel his clothes getting wet from Anya's tears.
"I didn't kick you out." Aiden said calmly.
"Then?" Anya looked at Aiden's face with eyes filled with tears, "Nico said you told me to clean up all my things and leave this house as soon as possible. You kicked me out."
Aiden frowned. His wife was very easy to lie to.
"You are my wife. I decide whether you can stay or leave this house." Aiden's eyes were on Anya's feet. The woman hurriedly ran to greet him and lost one of her pink sandals.
Aiden immediately bent over and carried Anya a little so that her feet didn't touch the floor.
Anya felt very happy when Aiden returned her hug. Was her husband not angry anymore? Her hands moved to Aiden's neck and hugged him tightly.
Hana immediately followed Anya from behind while carrying the pink sandals left by Anya. Then, they entered the house together.
"Sir, Anya is waiting for you for dinner. Are you hungry? Would you like to try Anya's cooking?" Hana asked excitedly. She also wanted Aiden and Anya to make up soon.
"You haven't eaten yet?" Aiden asked the woman in his arms.
Anya's hug grew tighter, as if afraid that Aiden would run away once their embrace was released, "I want to eat with you. I'm waiting for you to come home."
"I've had dinner. You can eat alone." Once inside the house, Aiden immediately put Anya down. Hana hurriedly gave Anya's sandals that escaped her feet when she rushed to hug Aiden back.
When Anya was still wearing her sandals, Aiden was already walking towards the stairs. She rushed after Aiden and grabbed his arm.

Aiden shook his hand, breaking away from Anya's grip, "Anya, I need time to be alone."
"Aiden..." She whispered softly while still holding Aiden's hand.
Aiden wanted to remove his arm from Anya's handrail, but they were currently on the stairs. He was afraid that he could not control his strength and make Anya fall.
Anya had been injured quite badly today. If she fell down the stairs, how much pain would her tiny body have to endure? Anya wouldn't be able to endure it all.
Aiden felt even more annoyed. He was really angry with Anya, but he still loved her so he couldn't ignore her.
"Aiden, today I'm cooking for you. You said you wanted to taste my cooking. Do you want to try it?" Anya was still trying to beg.
Hana and the other servants had left them so that Aiden and Anya could solve their problem.
"Aiden, I will learn to be a good wife. I will never see Raka again. Please forgive me this time. Give me a second chance." Anya said, holding Aiden's hand tightly.
Aiden loved Anya so much that seeing Anya like this made him feel discouraged.
However, just as his heart started to melt, a voice came from the outside. The sound seemed to make Anya's heart want to explode from being so scared.
"Anya, Anya! Are you there?" Raka's voice came from the door.
Anya felt dizzy. Why did Raka come to their house? What else could Raka want? Did he really want Anya dead?
Anya immediately looked at Aiden in panic, "I didn't ask him to come. I didn't tell him to come to our house. Really! Trust me!"
This time Aiden was really angry. Raka's voice seemed to darken his eyes. He pulled his hand roughly, made Anya's body pushed and hit the railing of the stairs. Anya could only grimace in pain.
Aiden stopped walking and wanted to approach Anya, wanting to see her wound. But hearing Raka's voice outside the door, he restrained himself and walked back to his room without looking back.

After returning to the room, he immediately called Nico, "If you don't want to take your friend's body, hurry and take your friend out of here."
"I'll be right there." Nico didn't dare to joke. His uncle's threat was real. If he was too late, Aiden would really kill Raka.
Anya's body slumped down the middle of the stairs. She leaned her back against the railing of the stairs and held her head while enduring the pain. Her head felt dizzy when she heard Raka's scream from outside.
What exactly did Raka want? Why couldn't he let her live in peace?
Hana hurriedly appeared and saw that Aiden was no longer there. She immediately approached Anya who was sitting alone in the middle of the stairs and comforted her, "Do not worry. I will tell Raka to go."
"Anya, I know you are inside. Come out!" Raka shouted.
Hana was like a mother lion who wanted to protect her cubs. She walked out and glared at Raka, "Mr. Raka, you disturbed my master and madam's rest. You can come back another time if you need to. Please don't make a fuss."
"Mrs. Hana, there are important things I have to discuss with Anya. Please ask Anya to come out and meet me." Raka asked.
"Raka, what are you doing here?" Nico hurriedly pulled Raka away from Aiden's house, "Never mind! Forget Anya. Your relationship is over. Come with me!"
"But I have something to say..."
"No. You can pass it on to me!" Nico grabbed Raka's body and took him into his car, then left Aiden's house.
Finally, after Nico and Raka left, the house was calm again. Anya lifted her head and looked at the dining table blankly. Aiden didn't even look at the dining table at all.
"Are you alright?" Hana asked while helping Anya to her feet.
"I am alright. Aiden won't eat with me. Let me eat alone." Anya said.
"Sit down. I'll warm the food for you." Hana replied.
Anya sat at the dining table alone, expressionless. Her eyes were fixed on the clock on the wall. It was already eleven o'clock.
Aiden had punished her by throwing her halfway. Without complaining, she admitted her guilt and accepted Aiden's punishment.
She tried to cook in order to ease Aiden's anger. But what happened?
Aiden knew that Anya was being framed and she had nothing to do with Raka. But Aiden gave her absolutely no chance to improve their relationship.
Anya had been trying to apologize and even beg. She cooked to please Aiden.
But Anya's patience also had its limits. It was not that she was ignorant and not trying. She had tried hard to improve their relationship.
Then what else could she do to restore everything to its original state? Should she keep begging? Should she bow down in front of Aiden so that she no longer had her pride? Then what's left of her?
Anya's heart ached…
Anya lifted the spoon. Warm food was served in front of her, but her appetite was not there at all. She spooned the food, while tears fell down the plate.
Hana felt anxious when she saw her. She secretly went up to the second floor to find Aiden.
Aiden just got out of the bathroom. The bath towel was still wrapped around his neck and his hair was still wet.
"Sir, Anya sat alone on the table crying. Even if you are not hungry, sit with her for a while. You can taste a little of her homemade dishes." Hana said.
