Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 616

"But I don't believe her. I lost my formula and perfume samples before this competition. Today, someone suddenly made a perfume similar to mine. Looks like this is not a coincidence," Keara immediately took this opportunity to accuse Anya of stealing her perfume.
Anya just looked at Keara with a smile. She didn't say anything, but her smile looked cynical.
At that moment, Keara understood that Anya already knew everything!
"All the judges in this competition are experts in their fields. Since they have decided that the perfume I make is better, I trust their judgment," Anya replied in a very calm and elegant manner.
The emcee was very happy to see her elegance and said with a smile, "Once again, congratulations to you on winning this competition. Is there anything you want to say?"
"This is not the first time I have won this competition. For the last two years, I spent my time abroad studying and never made new products again. Now I want to convey to the perfume lovers out there who have been waiting for so long that Anya is back and ready to launch a new product!" Anya exclaimed.
Her enthusiasm seemed contagious, causing the audience to immediately applaud. It seemed that she had quite a lot of supporters in the city who liked her perfumes.
Two years ago, Anya made perfume without alcohol, so that people who were allergic to alcoholic perfume could finally use it. Since then, Anya's name had skyrocketed.
But then she disappeared.
After hearing that Anya had returned to Indonesia to participate in the competition, her fans also came to support her.
"Looks like you have a lot of fans here. I am also allergic to alcohol, and your homemade perfume that you launched two years ago was like a miracle to people like me. I believe it is your abilities that allow you to win this competition twice in a row. As for the matter with similar perfume, let's hear the explanation from the judges," the presenter handed his microphone to the jury.
The judges were a little embarrassed and explained, "The materials prepared in this place are very limited and these two participants are very young so maybe they have the same idea. That's why this happened. However, as the emcee said, we are confident in Miss Anya's abilities."
Keara looked away nervously and then continued speaking, "Do you dare to show your perfume formula?"
"It doesn't matter. My perfume will be introduced as a new product at Iris today. When the product is launched, the ingredients will be listed in the description," Anya said calmly.
Aiden saw them from the audience seat and felt that Keara was deliberately buying time and wanted to keep Anya on the stage. However, Keara's gaze was repeatedly on the crowd, like she was waiting for someone.
Waiting for someone?
Who was she waiting for?
When he realized this, Aiden immediately stood up and looked at the crowd. There, he saw a woman in a black sweater. The mask and hat covered her face as she continued to step forward briskly.
The woman's eyes were fixed on Anya.
Aiden felt that the woman was very familiar, but he couldn't remember who.
"Uncle, what's wrong?" Nico could feel Aiden's tense.
Even though the woman didn't do anything, somehow Aiden could feel danger. Did she want to harm Anya?
It seemed that Keara ordered her to injure Anya.
"The woman in black is dangerous. Hurry and catch her!" Aiden said to his bodyguards. Meanwhile, the man also rushed his way through the crowd, trying to stop the figure.

Nico looked at Aiden and looked at the woman he was approaching.
'Isn't that…'
"Natali! When did she get out of the mental hospital?" Nico shouted. "Harris, hurry and stop Natali! She wants to hurt my aunt!"
"Isn't Natali still in a mental hospital? When did she come out?" Tara was shocked too.
Harris immediately picked up the walkie talkie he was holding and informed the guards in the monitor room. "Mr. Aiden tried to stop the woman in black and the hat. Quickly point the light at the target!"
Aiden did not tell Anya that in order to bring her back to Indonesia, Atmajaya Group invested a large stake and sponsored this competition.
Atmajaya Group chose the place to hold this competition, at one of the hotels owned by Aiden.
Aiden thought that everything would be under his control if he did all that.
The guards in the monitor room immediately found Natali and shone the light towards her.
Natali was stunned at her place and couldn't move. The lights made Anya realize that a woman was acting strange from the crowd. She also saw Aiden heading towards the woman with several bodyguards around him.
At the same time, Keara stared at Anya with satisfaction.
"Anya..." Natali suddenly took out a gun and pointed it at her.
Anya did not expect Natali to be so crazy that she took a gun in such a crowded place. She even dared to point the gun in front of everyone.
She realized that the situation was very dangerous. She didn't have much time to think but after trying to calm herself down, she immediately pointed at Keara and shouted, "Anya is there!"
Keara didn't expect Anya to point at her.
"Are you crazy? I'm not Anya. Can't you recognize her?!" Keara shouted with anger towards Natali.
Natali spent two years in a mental hospital. Being locked up and imprisoned together with insane people made her brain a little disturbed.
She shifted the gun from Anya towards Keara.
"Someone pulled out a gun! Get out of here quickly!" The guards immediately evacuated the visitors so they could save themselves from danger.
The emcee and some of the judges were still on the stage, not daring to run away. They could only retreat to a darker place slowly and wait for the opportunity to escape.
When Natali pointed the gun at Keara, Anya saw that Aiden and his bodyguards were very close to Natali.
She was worried because Natali was holding a gun, afraid that something would happen to Aiden or his closest people who were still in the audience seats. She could only hope that Aiden's guards could bring down Natali as quickly as possible.
Keara panicked and immediately protected her stomach. "Natali, can't you distinguish my voice and Anya's voice? I am Keara and she is Anya! You have to take revenge on the person who hurt you, not me!"
However, the two people on the stage were very similar, even though Anya looked younger than Keara.
Keara did look more mature and charming than Anya, while Anya looked younger and cheerful. If looked closely, they actually looked different.
But sadly, Natali was out of her mind and could not think.
"It's better for me to kill the wrong people than to let go of both of them!" Without a doubt, Natali immediately pulled the trigger of the gun and shot Keara.
"Ahhh!" Keara's leg was shot, knocking her to the floor.
Aiden felt very panicked when he heard the gunshot. The spectators who had not yet had time to escape were also scared and ran in all directions because they were too panicked.

The prestigious international perfume competition had turned into a murder scene.
After shooting at Keara, Natali immediately turned to Anya, "Now it's your turn!"
She would not give up both of them. Better to shoot and kill both at once!
Just when Natali was about to shoot, Aiden immediately rushed at her at full speed. He bumped into Natali and knocked her off balance, just as Natali pulled the trigger of the gun once again.
Natali's shot hit the lamp above them, causing it to break and fall.
"Aiden!" Anya shouted.
Aiden was trying to restrain Natali so that he didn't notice that the chandelier above had fallen on top of his head.
Natali took the opportunity when Aiden was hit by the lamp to thrash and scream. "I will kill you. I will kill you, Anya!"
Aiden pulled Natali back as she was about to rise to her feet, making her fall back to the ground.
However, another gunshot rang out at the same time...
