Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 232

"When will that new perfume come out?" Nobody knew when he arrived, Aiden suddenly appeared in the doorway.
Anya was surprised to hear Aiden's voice from behind. She turned and saw Aiden's figure standing in the doorway.
How long had Aiden been standing there? Did he listen to everything Anya told her mother?
Anya bit her lip and asked in a low voice, "How long have you been standing there?"
"Since you said you didn't choose the wrong husband." Aiden looked at Anya with a sparkling face. A proud smile appeared on his face.
That answer made Anya's cheeks burn. She felt embarrassed! Aiden heard everything she said to her mother!
"Why are you eavesdropping?" Anya glared at Aiden.
Aiden just chuckled at his wife's exasperation, "You're talking to your mother. I don't want to interfere."
While standing in the doorway, Aiden felt very happy to hear Anya talk about him. He heard Anya praising him and confessing her love in front of her mother.
His little wife was very gentle and kind.
Indeed, Aiden previously felt annoyed at Anya's innocence. But he knew that Anya's kindness was her strength.
He would not let Anya lose her tenderness and kindness, but he would also teach Anya to be strict with certain people.
After that, Anya thought about Aiden's question. She thought about Imel's new perfume. "I don't believe in my father. Plus, isn't it a really strange coincidence that Imel wants to put out perfume at times like this?"
Aiden also knew how cunning Deny and Imel were. However, he would never let anything happen to Anya and her mother.
"Before my mom fell back into a coma, she said something was wrong with the recipe that it could cause an asthma reaction. I still don't know what's wrong with that formula," Anya whispered in a low voice.
Aiden's eyes deep as he thought. "If there's nothing wrong with the formula, Imel's reputation will only increase because she can come up with a new perfume. However, if something happens, Imel will blame your mother, because there is your mother's signature on the perfume recipe."

"Right. If the perfume is good and sells in the market, it will be a special perfume made by Imel Tahir. However, if anything happened, she would bring out my mother's autographed perfume recipe, and make it all look like my mother's fault. I still don't know if the perfume she's going to release is really my mother's recipe. I don't know if my father really sold it." Anya felt so panicked that she couldn't do anything about it.
"Don't worry. I'll have someone check it," Aiden said.
"Aiden, my mom is in a coma right now. I really don't want Imel to keep bothering my mother in this condition," Anya looked sadly at her mother who was lying in the hospital. "You have to find a way to help my mother."
"All your problems are mine too. I'm going to get someone to investigate it," Aiden walked out of Diana's room and immediately ordered his men to investigate Imel.
If it was true that Imel used Diana's recipe, he would try to keep Imel from getting permission to launch her perfume.
Before registering a perfume license, a person must submit files for the inspection procedure in order to be approved. To protect the formula, they had to file and register it for a patent.
Aiden might be able to prevent her registration, or pay someone to find out if the recipe really belonged to Anya's mother.
Anya looked at Aiden who was on the phone in the corridor with a smile. Then she said to Diana, "Mother, isn't my man much better than yours? I hope dad doesn't sell your formula, or I'll really kick him out of Mom's house. Even if the Tedjasukmana Family goes bankrupt I won't even care about it."
Diana still didn't react. Doctors said her mother needed time to recover slowly. But her mother's condition got better and was able to get out of the ICU in just two days. The chances of her mother getting up again were very high.

"Mother, I'm going to visit Grandma's grave for you this year. But you must wake up soon. Grandma loves you very much."
Anya continued talking while confirming Diana's blanket. "This year is very warm. Even osmanthus flowers grow faster. I'm busy collecting osmanthus flowers and selling them, so maybe I won't be able to visit you often. Get up quickly, Mom. Anya needs your help..."
When Aiden returned, Anya was waiting for him.
"Aiden, my mom needs rest. The doctor said she had to rest a lot in order to recover. In the meantime, I should not disturb her," Anya seriously said.
Aiden stroked Anya's cheek gently and calmly said, "I will have my bodyguard on guard here and inform the hospital so that no one can visit your mother but family."
Anya immediately nodded and felt relieved.
When they got home from the hospital, it was three o'clock in the afternoon. Aiden raised the watch on his wrist, ���It's still late. I want to take you somewhere before you go home."
"Where?" asked Anya, confused.
"Meeting my mother," Aiden said casually.
Anya took a deep breath. If she remembered correctly, Aiden's mother died more than ten years ago.
"Aiden, I don't understand," Anya looked at him in confusion. Would Aiden take him to his mother's grave?
It looked like it was too late to go to the tomb. It would be dark already once they got there.
"Are you afraid?" Aiden chuckled as he guessed his wife's thoughts. "It's not dark yet."
"Is the place far?" Anya asked in a weak voice.
"Not far. Only forty minutes by car." Aiden's handsome face turned towards Anya and looked at her gently. "If you don't want to, we can go home,"
Anya thought for a moment. If it only took forty minutes to drive the car, it seemed they could be home before six.
"Let's go. I can also visit my grandmother's grave at once." Anya said with a thin smile.
On the way to the cemetery, a traffic accident occurred and their car stopped on the road.
Anya saw the situation was not well. Several ambulances arrived, making the situation even more tense. It seemed like this situation would take quite a while before the road finally cleared.
"Aiden, how about we take a walk? The cemetery is near." Anya said and Aiden agreed immediately.
Once they arrived, they went to visit Anya's grandmother first, out of respect for the elders.
Anya brought the fruits and flowers she bought before going to her grandmother's grave.
"Grandma, Anya came with your grandson-in-law. Am I not great? My husband is very handsome, right?" Anya looked at her grandmother's grave with a smile. Her hand touched her grandmother's tombstone gently. "Grandma doesn't need to worry. I will take care of my mother."
"Grandma, my name is Aiden. I am Anya's husband. I will take care of Anya and her mother as well," Aiden said in a low voice in front of Anya's grandmother's grave. "Don't worry. I won't let anything happen to Anya."
Anya smiled hearing this. "Grandma, isn't my husband very nice?" she said with a chuckle. "Grandma always prays that I will live long and find a good husband. If my husband is not good, I will suffer for life. That's why I followed my grandmother's teachings to find a kind and handsome husband. That way, my sons and daughters will be equally handsome and beautiful."
"Grandma, you went too fast. I couldn't serve you yet. If grandma is born again, Anya hopes we will become family again. If grandma becomes my child, I will love you and spoil you very much."
Aiden's face immediately changed when he heard Anya's words.
A daughter?

The Dreamside Road
Five years after the world fell into chaos, a treasure of artifacts is up for grabs. The relics of the Dreamside Road offer a power that could help rebuild or annihilate what remains. Orson Gregory is an adventurer for hire, but hunts this treasure for answers, not glory. Enoa Cloud’s late aunt helped hide the Dreamside Road, but following in her aunt’s supernatural tradition offers her as much peril as power. Together, Orson and Enoa battle a magic-obsessed militia, clash with a host of rivals, and face constant adventure on their journey to find the Dreamside Road. *Updates Monday and Friday The Dreamside Road is now on TopWebFiction! Vote so people know this exists. _____________________________________ NOTE: The Progression tag applies specifically to Enoa. Also, fair warning, that element doesn't enter the story until she begins her studies. Content: Main characters range in age from teenagers to people in their thirties and older, but it will not contain gratuitous violence or explicit sexual content. It also won’t shy away from implication, anything to make this story and its world feel more real. Characters will freely allude to potentially triggering topics, including living with a disability, facing terminal illness, coping with trauma, surviving societal destabilization, and the consequences of bigotry. At its most intense, the Dreamside Road is a hard PG-13. Worldbuilding: This is not a story with a lot of early exposition scenes, conveniently explaining ‘magic systems’ and political dynamics. Readers will learn, progressively, as the characters do. This story/world has a ‘magic system’, or rather, a set of systems, but the effort to quantify and understand the truth of the setting plays a role in the backstory, as well as in some character motivations. In that same vein, not every character has a firm grasp on the nature of their world, and not every piece of dialog from every character should be taken as entirely truthful Worldbuilding. Also, this isn't the softest Sci-fi. There are at least some basic explanations given for various elements, but Royal Road does not give me a spectrum to choose from. Given the choice between hard and soft, let's just say The Dreamside Road won't be cited in any college Physics papers. Setting and Theme: The Dreamside Road walks the line between fantasy and science fiction and deals with finding one’s place in a changing world. Many of the characters in this story are United States natives and the story begins in the United States, my homeland. However, knowledge or interest in this country is not necessary to understand the story, especially as it progresses. Also, as this is a novel that deals with societal collapse and while that damage may be widespread, in story, I don’t want to overstep and critique the culture of others’ unless I have particular knowledge in a given area. Ultimately, the Dreamside Road is American in the same way Harry Potter is English, fantasies that do not have a full secondary world, but with enough original elements to fully diverge the setting from our the real world.
