Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 696
Advertisement
Anya's hand looked a little wobbly so that the glass she was holding fell and spilled the red wine that filled it.
In the blink of an eye, the red wine in Anya's hand spilled onto Jessica's chest.
The red wine made Jessica's cream-colored dress dirty right at that second. She was wearing a 10 cm high heel so that when she saw Anya spilling the wine, she couldn't escape her.
"Geez!" Anya exclaimed in a low voice. Her hands hung rigidly in the air.
Jessica's face immediately turned terrible. Everyone was there, how could Anya do it to her?
Anya then showed a regretful look. She stepped forward and said apologetically, "Jessica, I'm really sorry. I forgot I was still holding the glass in my hand…"
Jessica was so angry that her whole body was trembling.
But Anya smiled instead, hiding the satisfaction in her heart.
Jessica wanted to attack her back, but when she saw Aiden's arrival, she immediately pretended to be cute and said, "No problem. I'm sure you accidentally spilled the wine on me because I accidentally spilled the wine on my hand on you before… "
No one said that Anya did it on purpose. But Jessica's words seemed to influence the guests' opinion as she indirectly accused Anya of spilling the wine on purpose.
"Aiden, you saw it right? Please help me explain. I really didn't mean it. Jessica accidentally spilled her wine on me and apologized to me. I panicked too when I wanted to tell her that it's okay and so my glass slipped from my hand..." Anya stopped talking and looked at her husband with a pleading face.
Aiden immediately took off his jacket and put it on her shoulder. After that, he embraced Anya and pulled his wife's body closer in his arms. "You're this big already, but you still spilled your drink like a child. What can you do without me?"

Despite reprimanding her, Aiden said it with a tender look.
"Then don't stay away from me. Otherwise, I would be careless and let myself get humiliated like this," Anya pursed her lips sadly.
Everyone there wasn't a fool. They all knew that Anya was the target. But what could they do if Aiden protected her? Even Jessica could only stand there awkwardly.
She pretended to be innocent and said, "Aiden, I wasn't being careful either. I didn't mean to…"
"That's right! Jessica didn't do it on purpose, but Anya did it on purpose!"
"I don't understand. Jessica accidentally spilled the wine, but why should Anya do the same to her? So mean..."
They were Jessica's followers. Of course they would immediately defend her.
"I think Anya didn't do it on purpose. Since everything is just a misunderstanding, it's better not to exaggerate it. My clothes are dirty, I'll go to the bathroom first," Jessica exuded a smile that was soft and charming like a grown woman.
Aiden frowned when he saw that.
But since he found out that Jessica was his old classmate, it wasn't easy for him to attack her.
"Nadine, help Jessica to change her clothes," Aiden said.
Nadine was reluctant, but she covered her annoyance the best she could. She smiled and invited Jessica toward the restroom.
Tara immediately rushed to Anya and saw the wine stain on her shirt. She looked so annoyed. "You have changed your clothes into spare attires. How can you forgive someone who spilled wine on your clothes at your son's party?"
Anya was annoyed too. But what could she do?
She had tried her best to repay that woman. "If she came as a guest, she should have behaved like a guest. She wanted someone else's husband and ordered her friends to attack me. Did you see earlier that she accidentally spilled the wine on my shirt?" Anya looked cold when she said it.

"She is too good at covering up her crimes so that no one knows if she did it on purpose. But everyone knows that you retaliated on purpose. Next time, you have to be smarter at hiding your intention," Tara invited Anya to go to the changing room.
"Aiden, you have to trust me. I didn't mean it," Anya pretended to be sweet and gentle while blinking her eyes repeatedly at Aiden.
Aiden shook his head when he saw his wife's behavior. But he couldn't reprimand Anya when he saw how cute his little wife was.
Anya grinned when she saw him. "I don't care. If I didn't respond earlier, I wouldn't be able to sleep in peace."
Tara shook her head in resignation. "Yes, yes, I know you feel relieved now. But what will people think of it?"
Anya snorted, "If I cared about their opinion, I wouldn't have spilled the wine. Just let them talk about me, I really don't care. Aiden can solve everything for me."
"You caused trouble and Aiden will solve it all for you. Looks like your life is very comfortable, huh, Mrs. Atmajaya?" Tara said with exasperation. "Aren't you afraid your father-in-law will be angry? You see, his first daughter-in-law, Aunt Maria is very charming and graceful. Nadine is also just as charming as her mother. But what about you…?"
"Am I really being too much?" Anya felt guilty after listening to Tara's words.
After all, everyone came to celebrate her sons turning one month today. It felt unethical for her to treat her guests like this.
Plus, some of them were Jessica's friends and they knew her, though not very close.
"Anya is truly extraordinary..."
"What a cheap woman, she can only rely on her man's power."
"She's very cunning. Previously, she managed to snatch Aiden from Natali only because her face resembled Keara. But even after Keara returned, she was able to maintain her position beside Aiden and get rid of Keara. Don't be fooled by her innocent face."
"She really looks innocent and pure, but actually has a really bad heart. I feel sorry for Jessica. She has helped everyone to apologize, but she got humiliated like this instead."
"How could Aiden marry a woman like her? How arrogant…"
"What else is her ability besides spreading her legs for Aiden?"
Indah saw Anya changing her clothes for the second time and hadn't come back yet. She was worried that her daughter's mood was getting worse because of what happened today so she took the initiative to look for her.
Just as she had just taken a few paces, someone stopped her. "Indah, did you see what happened? Anya deliberately poured wine on Jessica in front of many people. Her face is very similar to your daughter, Keara. Aiden wanted her only because her face resembled your daughter. How disgusting."
"What did you say? Anya threw the wine on purpose? Who spilled the wine first? And you said Anya is disgusting? How about those of you who can only talk ill of people behind their back? You guys are even more disgusting," Indah snorted coldly and turned away, ignoring the loathsome gossipers.
