Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 361
Advertisement
"No. You are mine!" Anya said while chewing Aiden's lips gently.
Aiden laughed at this and returned Anya's kiss. "Yes, that's true. I am yours,"
That night felt so sweet to her. Anya seemed to be floating, hovering above the soft clouds like marshmallows, under the starry night sky until the sun peeked through the blue clouds.
That night, Anya didn't set her foot on the ground, not even once. Aiden continuously charged at her, keeping her above the clouds.
Aiden saw that his wife was getting weak. Anya didn't even notice when Aiden was bathing her.
When she woke up the next day, the sun was high in the sky.
Aiden already went to his office early in the morning. Meanwhile, Diana had gone to the garden with Hana.
When Anya found out that her mother and Hana were going to the garden, she quickly had breakfast and caught up with them.
Diana looked at all the growing flowers in her garden with pleasure. Her face flashed a happy smile when she saw this garden.
Knowing that Diana was Anya's mother, the employees who were in charge of guarding the park immediately escorted her to go around and help to push her wheelchair.
"Mother..." Anya came while her mother was strolling around.
"Finally you came. I told Hana that I wanted to visit a nearby orchard. Tio said he wanted to rent out his garden after he harvested the apples. I wonder if he is willing to sell some of his garden to us," Diana said with a smile.
Anya shook her head and said, "Uncle Tio's apple orchard is not very big and the apple tree is still small. If you want to sell apples to make money, you have to wait three to five years. I don't think it's a good idea to buy that apple orchard,"
"We can save the apples if the tree doesn't grow big or the yields aren't much. There is sufficient space for planting flowers between the trees. We can keep selling flowers until the apples grow," Diana said.

"If the flowers take nutrients from apples, the apple tree will be even more difficult to grow," Anya replied.
"I'm just planning to move the roses and plant some lilies and irises for our own use. We can move the bergamot tree to our house and sell all the other flower seeds," Diana said.
"Are we going to sell all these flowers?" Anya's eyes widened wide.
"Daisies, sunflowers, carnations and other flowers can be moved. Or if not, you can just sell everything. I'm too old to grow this many flowers. Besides, you also have a family and have to work. You don't need to spend time taking care of the garden," on the trip to the garden, Diana had it all planned.
"If you've decided about it, I can only follow your wish to the apple orchard," Anya decided to respect her mother's decision.
She knew that her mother was doing all this for her own good.
On the way to the apple orchard, Anya pushed her mother's wheelchair while accompanying her to talk.
Anya felt so tired since they couldn't reach the place fast due to the path and the trip took one hour.
Of course, the pain in her waist wasn't from pushing her mother's wheelchair. It was because she made love to Aiden all night.
Hana had told Harris that they were going to the apple orchard and Harris had preceded them to negotiate a price with the owner of the apple orchard.
"Uncle Tio, are you here?" Anya stood in front of the gate of the apple orchard and shouted a little loudly.
"Come in!" Tio replied while opening the gate. "I've been waiting for you. You want to buy my apple orchard, right? This young man has spoken to me,"
"Who?" Anya looked curiously and saw Harris plucking wild plants with a small sickle.
"Uncle Tio asked me to uproot this grass and he agreed to sell this garden to us," Harris said awkwardly.

Tio bursted out laughing. "This young man is too thin and small. He must have rarely exercised. I want to train him,"
Anya laughed seeing him. "Uncle, don't be like that. Harris is too busy working. Let me pull the grass,"
"No need. I'll do it. There's only a little left," how could Harris dare to let Anya uproot the grass, replacing him? If Aiden found out, he would definitely lose all his wages!
Harris didn't want to follow in Nico's footsteps. Nico still couldn't get approval to work with the Mahendra Family so his company credit card was confiscated. Even his salary this month was reduced due to poor performance.
Nico had been pushing and harassing Raka lately. It could be said that he never went far from Raka. That's because only Raka could help him get his salary and credit card back.
The Mahendra family had lost a piece of land in a commercial center to free Raisa from prison. If they really had money to run a project, then why would they want to work with Atmajaya Group?
Nico was very sorry. Aiden purposely gave him a trap, but Nico jumped into it innocently and without knowing anything. Now, when he wanted to get out, Aiden didn't let anyone give him a rope. Raka was his only savior.
Before lunch, Diana had signed an agreement with the owner of the apple orchard and paid a down payment.
Harris helped her to complete the next procedure.
Anya had sold the Tedjasukmana family's house and her mother's small house so now her mother had nothing. That's why Anya insisted on using Diana's name in this apple orchard's ownership.
On the way to the house, Anya told Diana that she gave half the money from the sale of the garden to Galih, but Galih refused.
"Mother, Uncle Galih only wants to accept the money that he lent to you, without the slightest interest," Anya said.
"He wants me to owe him a debt," Diana took a deep breath. "What about the Tedjasukmana Family's house?"
Anya glanced at Diana's face silently and continued when she saw that her mother's face was calm. "I gave half of the money to my father. After I deduct it with the cost of maintenance and renovation, Mrs. Mona took the money in front of dad and dad didn't say anything,"
"Just let them take it. I don't want to owe him anything and I don't want to have any more contact with him," Diana's face looked very calm as if she had no worries.
"Our little house has also been sold. After buying an apple orchard, let's buy a nicer house to live in. In fact, Aiden had already ordered a house in the Atmajaya Group construction project. The garden of the house is directly connected to our Vanilla Garden," Anya said, biting her lip and lowering her head, as if she was making a big decision. "Mother, I think that house is too expensive for us to accept for free,"
"I also don't want Aiden to give me such an expensive house. But I love the house that has direct access to our Vanilla Garden. Try asking the price, we will buy it ourselves. If we don't have enough money, we can pay in installments. We have to buy the house itself," Diana said with a smile.
Anya could only hug Diana's neck from behind her wheelchair. She really loved her mother.
Diana stroked her beloved daughter's hand. "I can't give you anything. The only thing I can do is not embarrass you. Even though you are already part of the Atmajaya Family, at least we can provide for our own needs,"

Quebracho: The Legend of Two Heroes
After a violent and tough battle, you recover in an infirmary with your fellow soldiers, or in a more relatable scenario, visit your friend's house after a hard day of studying. You’d expect that both of them would play out normally for the most part, right? Well... Maxon Cortez and Jason McGuire had the same thoughts too. Yet, fate has different plans for them: Max ends up in an eerie location he doesn’t recognize and Jace gets transported to an entirely different world that works like a video game (sort of) by walking into a portal. As they travel along the lands, the two of them will encounter other individuals of many kinds, make friends new and old, gain powerful abilities, experience spectacular adventures, and obtain priceless treasures. However, Maxon and Jason will unknowingly become integral parts of a nefarious conspiracy that, if successful, will plunge both of their worlds into eternal chaos and darkness. So it’s up to them and their allies to thwart it. Side-Note: I’ll admit right off the bat that this story will be my first attempt at writing a LitRPG, so the in-game mechanics and terminology will probably look weird and be even nonsensical. If you notice something that’s out-of-place or just flat out wrong, I apologize. Not only that, it's been a while since I've wrote anything and thus I'm a little bit rusty. So please bear with me. New chapters once every Saturday or Sunday. Also, I'll be fine-tuning the grammar, punctuation, and spelling when I have the time. So expect a lot of random edits. This story is also available on ScribbleHub.

Reincarnated As A Benevolent Tyrant
NOTICE: This story is under rewrite. New novel has been published. Search **RE: Tyranny** in Royalroad for the new novel.Link- Re: Tyranny Thank You! ------------------------ "Sometimes you will never know the value of a moment until it becomes a memory." What a brilliant line, isn't it? James was a boy who had nothing to worry about. A happy family, a nice childhood. What's more to ask? But one day, everything changed. He lost everything in the blink of an eye. The only thing left for him were the memories and dreams of the past. Trying to cope up with the loss, he cut all ties with the outside world and became a shut-in, having no one left to call his own or to rely upon. There was nothing left for him in this world, but still he lived and soon found a purpose in his life, which lead him to create something that could change the world.And on the very day when his dream project was about to come to the light, he lost his life, trying to save a little girl from an unfortunate accident. "Will I ever be remembered...? I wish... someone would." These were the last word James mumbled before his conscious faded into darkness. But his life didn't end there, as he is transmigrated into the body of an arrogant, worthless Duke's son in some unknown land with no memories about who is or any idea about where he is. In an era of political turmoil and civil strife, the Duke's son is forced to prove his worth for inheriting the title. Will he be able to accept the new reality and prove himself by leading this country into a prosperous future? Or will he cease to the pressure of his past and lose everything once more? Disclaimer: This is not a power-fantasy or a 'feel-good' story. If you feel a protagonist should never lack agency (especially in early story) or make compromises because of difficult circumstances, then this fiction is probably not for you. It is a story that delves deep into real world sociological/psychological subjects and explores many topics of gray morality. I wrote it because I like stories that make me think more about the world around us, not to detach myself from reality. Some aspects you can expect based on the tags include:- [Kingdom Building]: political drama, geopolitical/geoeconomic strategy- [Army Building]: massive battles featuring in-depth planning, combined arms, and operational logistics- [Identity Crisis]: someone translated into a whole different world having to rebuild their identity and life aims The story starts off slowly, more like a slice of life than action-adventure, but I guarantee you it will get there. For those who want to skip the slow part, start from Chapter - 35 (Beginning of The End) (The whole Disclaimer section is copied from Aorii as I am too busy writing the complete story.) And yes, just for General Knowledge, James will become OP throughout the story. He is not some legendary guy who will pull out Excalibur & conquer the entire world. Update Schedule - One chapter a day. This novel is also available on Scribble Hub. And again, I humbly thank you for reading it. I hope you stick throughout the journey.
