"You met Natali last night. Did you ask her who told her about the examination schedule?" Anya asked.

"She didn't want to open her mouth," said Aiden.

​​

Anya could only bite her lip in annoyance. When Aiden mentioned the schedule for her examination, Keara was also there.

After they left the hotel, they saw Keara and Natali chatting in the car. No wonder Anya was suspicious of Keara. But she couldn't say anything in front of Aiden.

Keara was not an ordinary woman. She was also the daughter of a family with high status. Even though Anya suspected her, there was nothing she could do without clear evidence and confession from Natali.

…

Around 2 PM, Anya and Aiden returned home. As Tara said, Anya's pregnancy was very healthy. She only had mild anemia.

On the way home, Aiden received a call from Nico. "Uncle, has the examination been completed? Grandpa asked you to come to the main house,"

Alone? Without Anya?

"What's the problem?" Aiden asked with a serious expression.

"Grandpa didn't say anything, but my mother said, Keara just came," Nico answered.

"I understand," Aiden didn't ask any further and hung up on him.

Seeing the change in expression on her husband's face, Anya asked anxiously. "Aiden, what's wrong?"

"Dad asked me to stop by the house," Aiden said calmly.

Anya was worried that something was happening. But Aiden had promised to explain everything to her and not hide anything.

If Aiden didn't say anything, that meant there's no problem. Anya decided not to ask.

"The Atmajaya Family's house is closer. I better take you there first and then I'll go home," Anya knew Aiden didn't ask her to come, that meant Bima asked him to come alone. Maybe they wanted to talk about company matters.

"No need. Harris will pick me up. You go home and rest," Aiden said, stroking Anya's head gently.

Their car stopped at the side of the road, just under a large tree. Aiden had asked Harris to pick him up there so that Anya could go straight home and rest.

The guards who escorted them then carried out their duties and provided privacy for Anya and Aiden.

Aiden took out the ultrasound photo they got earlier. His face looked soft when he saw it, even though the fetus in Anya's womb was still as small as a pea.

"Do you want a boy or a girl?" Anya asked with a smile.

"They are the same. As long as this child is ours, I will love them so much," Aiden replied while continuing to look at the ultrasound photo.

"I want a handsome and warm boy like you. After that, I can go back to work again," said Anya.

"Girls are okay too. She must be smart and beautiful like her mother. I thought like that because the Atmajaya Family already has Nico. But still, I think boys and girls are the same," as long as the child is his and Anya's, he would love them wholeheartedly.

Anya looked at her husband, smiling broadly. "It's really nice to be married to Mr. Atmajaya. You don't demand anything,"

"Hmm... It's great to have Mrs. Atmajaya," Aiden held Anya's face with both hands and kissed her lips.

Then, one of Aiden's hands dropped to embrace Anya's waist and pulled her body closer. Anya felt embarrassed when her body was already in Aiden's lap.

They were on the side of the road. What if someone saw them?

But Aiden didn't want to let go and continued to suck her lips softly. He didn't care even if someone saw them. After all, Anya was his.

Just let everyone know that this woman was his!

Anya could feel Aiden's passion rising from his wet kiss. "Aiden, don't," she said, whispering.

Anya's words made Aiden wake up. He took a deep breath and held back his desire to have his wife. He let go of Anya's body gently, afraid that the slightest movement would hurt his little wife.

"Now you dare to reject me openly," Aiden grumbled.

Anya chuckled at her husband's grumbling. Aiden's stamina was too strong. Her body couldn't afford to satisfy Aiden all the time. Maybe, she wouldn't be able to get out of bed the next day.

"You have to make sacrifices to become a father," Anya said with a chuckle.

"Why are you even happy?" Aiden did not like seeing Anya smile happily because of this problem.

"Of course I'm happy. I can bear our child. Our children will be born healthy," said Anya.

Anya's answer made Aiden's heart melt. He immediately kissed the top of Anya's head and leaned his head there.

They chatted for a while until Harris finally arrived.

"Be careful driving," as soon as he got out of the car, Aiden immediately ordered his bodyguards to escort Anya safely and safely.

Now, Anya was no longer alone. She had another life growing inside her and the bodyguard felt a greater responsibility to look after her. "I understand, sir. I will escort Madame home safely,"

…

Hours later, Harris stopped in front of the Atmajaya Family's house. When Aiden was about to get out of the car, he gave Aiden a report.

"Sir, it looks like Mr. Bima wants to talk about Mr. Ardan and Mrs. Maria's biological daughter," Harris said.

'Nadine…'

In the Atmajaya family, there were actually two Nadines.

The first Nadine was the daughter of Maria who had disappeared since little.

The second Nadine was an illegitimate daughter brought by Ardan, Aiden's eldest brother, to replace his missing daughter. The girl got her new identity to cover up the scandal that Ardan had illegitimate children outside of marriage.

However, unfortunately, the second Nadine disappeared again after leaving with Keara.

This was a secret in the Atmajaya Family that not many people knew.

"Sis Maria has survived for years for the name of the Atmajaya family. She must be very happy when she finds her real daughter," Aiden already guessed why Bima called him.

But what made him feel confused was, why shouldn't Anya know that Maria had found her missing daughter? Wasn't this good news?

"Apart from that, what happened to Miss Natali may have something to do with Miss Yura's father. Miss Yura had endured all the crimes they had planned together, but Miss Natali had never visited her in prison. Therefore, her family kidnapped Miss Natali and dumped her on the outskirts of the town," Harris reported.

"Can't be helped, she had it coming for all her actions," Aiden muttered.

"Sir, Mrs. Maria is coming," Harris saw Maria coming out of the door of the house. He immediately got out of the car and opened the door for Aiden.

Aiden immediately went to his sister-in-law when he saw Maria approaching him. But when he got closer, he realized that Maria's eyes were turning red as if she'd been crying.

"Sis, I heard you found Nana," said Aiden.

Nana was a favorite nickname given by Maria to her biological daughter when she was a baby. The beloved nickname was specifically for her biological daughter, while her adopted daughter was still called Nadine.

"Aiden, I better not find her. I better not know. What should I do?" Maria was crying uncontrollably.

Nico came out when he heard his mother's cry. "Mother, what's wrong? Why are you crying?"

Maria didn't want to answer Nico's question. Her cries got even louder. Meanwhile, Bima could only take a deep breath.

Aiden put his arm around his sister-in-law and helped her into the house. As he passed Bima, Aiden saw his father looking at him sharply.

"Grandfather, why do you look at him like that? Uncle just came back and knows nothing," said Nico.

"You're still a kid, don't interfere. This matter is between adults," Bima replied.

"Did you guys find my sister? Where is she now? When will she be back?" Nico asked.

"Nico, accompany your mother. Grandfather must talk to your uncle," Bima got up and walked to his office.

Nico felt very angry that no one wanted to tell him about this matter. Little kid? For God's sake, he's 26!

"Can't you guys show me a little respect? I'm already 26 years old, I'm not a kid anymore. You found my sister, but you don't want to tell me?"

"Nico, don't ask me anything else," Maria could only say weakly as she wiped her tears.

Seeing the current situation, Aiden knew he couldn't ask Maria anything. Finally, he decided to follow his father into the study...
