Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 205

"Have someone go over there and warn the people at the table next to Anya. Tell them to look away and not to look at my wife's legs," Aiden said coldly.
Harris was stunned by the order. "Sir, if we order someone over there now, Madame will definitely find out where we are," he replied.
Aiden saw some men were looking at Anya's pair of smooth legs. He really wanted to gouge their eyes out.
"Sir, you must calm down. Madame is blaming herself for putting Mrs. Diana into a coma again. She thinks she will feel better after hurting you. The important thing now is Mrs. Diana's condition," Harris said.
"We will call doctors from abroad again," Aiden did not expect Diana to suddenly fall into a coma again after she just woke up.
…
Nico returned to their table with his plate. "What were you talking about just now?"
"Nico, didn't your grandfather bring back the illegitimate child from outside a few years ago? Is that Aiden? Or your other uncle?" Tara asked in a low voice.
Tara's family had been working as the personal doctor of the Atmajaya Family for a long time, so she knew all that family's secrets.
"Uncle Aidan and my father are the sons of my grandmother. My second uncle returned home after my grandmother died. What does this have to do with this?" Nico asked.
Anya's eyes widened wide. "What did you say?"
Tara looked at Anya calmly and asked. "Is the mother of your second uncle Imel Tahir?"
"Right. Be careful if you see a woman with the last name Tahir in the future. That woman is really creepy!" Nico looked around warily. When he saw Aiden's bodyguard not far from his place, he felt relieved.
Then he whispered, "Auntie, do you remember that the doctor who treated Uncle suddenly died? My uncle even had to go home early and find a new doctor. At that time, some people sabotaged the medicine and wanted to blind Uncle for life. After being investigated, it was said that Imel Tahir killed the doctor. She also paid the pharmacist to mix dangerous ingredients in my uncle's medicine. After her plan failed, she even killed that person!"

"You mean, Imel wants to hurt Aiden?" Anya's brain was spinning.
Her mother said that Aiden was Imel's son. Then why did Nico say Imel's son was his other uncle?
"After my father died, no one in the company accepted me because of my young age. If anything happens to Uncle, the company will go to my other uncle. In order for his son to get the Atmajaya company, Imel tried to hurt Uncle Aiden. Even though the evidence was still insufficient to date, I'm sure uncle's kidnapping, which made him what he is today, has something to do with Imel Tahir!"
Nico then said the unsolved mystery, "Imel wants to get married and become part of the Atmajaya Family. My father was the one who tried to stop her and now it's my uncle who did it. She really hates Uncle."
"A woman like that is really cunning. She can only dream of becoming a powerful woman," Tara said angrily.
"Do you have any evidence that Imel's son is not your biological uncle?" Anya still couldn't believe it.
"I'll show you a photo of the New Years dinner." Nico took out his cellphone and showed her the photo in the Atmajaya Family dining room.
In the photo, Imel and a young man sit on Bima's left. Meanwhile, Aiden, Maria and Nico sat on Bima's right.
"This is Uncle Ivan and his mother, Imel Tahir."
Ivan! Anya remembered that Nico had mentioned his other uncle's name, but she did not know that his uncle's name was Ivan. Nico wasn't close to Ivan as Aiden, so he didn't mention his name often.
"Anya, you misunderstood Aiden. Aiden will never help Imel to hurt you. Nico will never hurt you either." Tara said.
Anya held her head with both her hands. She was really confused.
What exactly happened?
Did her mother misunderstand?
Or was Nico and Tara working together to lie to her?
Tara was not a liar. Tara had no point to lie to her.

Was it true that her mother understood them wrong?
If Aiden and Ivan were rivals, wouldn't Aiden's aim of marrying her become even more suspicious?
Anya slapped her face hard, trying to pull herself together. Her brain was in chaos and she really wanted to open her head.
"What are you doing? Your head is innocent." Aiden appeared behind Anya and held her hand.
"Aiden, you... you follow me!" Anya exclaimed loudly and almost fell backwards.
Aiden immediately hugged Anya's waist and held her from falling. "Sit properly."
"Have you come to take me back? I don't want to come back with you. I will scream if you insist!" Anya looked around worriedly. "Everyone here knows me. You can't take me away."
"If I want to take my wife home, nothing can stop me," Aiden took a seat beside her.
"Aiden, I might've misunderstood some things, but your intention to marry me wasn't right from the start. Don't be evasive!" Anya poured her anger out as she was half drunk.
"What's the point in doing that? You have no money and are in debt. You're not pretty either, your face is just so-so. Then why did I marry you?" Aiden asked, looking at Anya. Even though he said that, his gaze could not leave his wife's beautiful face.
Anya felt angry when she heard this. She took a beer bottle and was about to pour it back into her glass, but she just realized that the glass had disappeared.
"Where's my glass?" She couldn't find the glass on the table so she looked under.
"Anya, you are already drunk. Don't drink anymore. Let's eat this," Tara gave a skewer of meat to Anya. "This is delicious!"
Anya took it without refusing and ate it. Then she took another stick and gave it to Aiden. "You just eat! Better you eat than you talk!"
Aiden took the skewer and gave it to Harris. Nico looked at Aiden, didn't dare make the slightest sound. Aiden was such a clean person that he never ate food from roadside stalls or from shady places.
When Aiden was about to give the satay to Harris, Anya said, "Aiden, are you really a real man? You dare to trick me, but you don't dare to eat roadside food!" she chirped while staring at Aiden with a blurred vision.
"Anya, you are already drunk. Let's go home and rest." Aiden saw Anya finishing a few beers from a distance. At this time, he was feeling restless and wanted to take Anya home.
"Nico, you eat!" Anya ordered.
Seeing his Uncle in front of him, Nico's appetite immediately dropped. He was afraid something would happen. "I'm full, Auntie," he said, pushing the plate in front of him.
Anya looked at Nico while clicking her tongue. "All men in the Atmajaya Family are cowards. They can only make fools of women, lie to their wives and hurt their partners' feelings. You all are jerks!"
Tara saw Aiden's expression getting darker and tried to stop Anya. "Anya, you are already drunk. Don't talk anymore!"
"I'm not guilty. Why don't you let me speak? I will say it." Anya turned to look at Aiden and said angrily, "You compete with Ivan because of company problems. If you can, why don't you fight him yourself? Why are you dragging me into this problem? Are you marrying me because Ivan likes me? Do you want to take revenge on him by using me?"
