Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 27
Advertisement
The atmosphere in the car became silent after the argument took place. The debate caused Aiden to feel angry at Anya's attitude that was too soft, while Anya felt confused about what to do.
Along the way, Aiden closed his eyes and did not care about Anya's whereabouts. This made Anya feel a little uneasy. She kept changing her sitting position, trying to find a comfortable position, but in the end, she could only surrender and stare out the window, trying to forget the anger of the man beside her.
Meanwhile, Harris, who was in the front passenger seat, was not quite disturbed by the silence in the car. He was busy carrying out his duties as Aiden's assistant. As Aiden's confidant, apart from accompanying his boss wherever he went, Harris was also responsible for maintaining Aiden's image and the company he led.
When an argument broke out in the cafe earlier, he saw several girls watching the incident while recording. In order to maintain Atmajaya's corporate image and Aiden's image, he confiscated all the tapes and asked the girls to remove them from their cell phones. However, he also made copies of these recordings on his cell phone.
After seeing the tape, Harris got an idea to improve the image of his boss after the spread of the hotel scandal a while ago. He immediately sent the tape to the internet and distributed it.
"Natali and I were arranged because of corporate matters. I am willing to cancel the engagement and forget that cooperation for you."
On the other tape, Aiden was recorded saying, "I just love you..." to the woman that was allegedly having an affair with him. Aiden's voice from the recording was clear. His deep voice seemed to hypnotize any woman.
Like wildfire, the footage spread very quickly and immediately received a response from many people. Everyone started flocking to leave comments on the page. They did not think that this was the true story, where Aiden and Anya were lovers, while Natali was the criminal.

"The ending was really unexpected..."
"It turns out that Aiden Atmajaya and Natali Tedjasukmana were only arranged for a business trip. Turns out that woman is Aiden's real lover!"
"Then Natali is trying to ruin their relationship?"
"That woman is really lucky. Life is like a cinderella…"
"Aiden came like a prince on horseback to save his princess!"
"I'm so jealous of him!"
"Geez... It's the same as stories in Korean dramas that are full of unexpected events!"
"This is the power of true love..."
"Look at Natali Tedjasukmana's behavior. Her pretty face is just a cover for her snake-like nature!"
"How could she do this to another woman just because she doesn't want to marry a blind man?"
"I didn't expect such a bad woman!"
Comments continued to invade the page, making the tape a hot topic of discussion. This discussion occupied the top spot of most viewed news.
From the footage, everyone could witness Natali's treatment of Anya. They could see Natali pouring coffee on Anya. At first, they thought Natali was taking revenge on the woman who had ruined her relationship. When this happened, Anya remained silent and did not reply. But after that, Aiden came to save Anya and exposed all of Natali's crimes.
They didn't think that all Natali did was just acting. Everything she did, she did to escape from an arranged marriage with a man with disabilities.
This was so unexpected!
The topic didn't only receive attention from those interested in this news, the entire media also did not want to miss on such hot issues. They immediately took out the news from the tape, published it on the internet and also printed it.
"Aiden Atmajaya's True Love, Matchmaking with the Tedjasukmana Family is a Corporate Cooperation."
"Who is Aiden Atmajaya's Choice of Lucky Woman?"
"The Terrible Action of One Child in an Outstanding Family, Karma for His Deeds Immediately Goes Down."

….
It didn't take long for such headlines to fill the internet, grabbing the attention of readers. Harris ensured that the newspaper and magazine published tomorrow would also have similar headlines.
Harris's way of solving problems was effective. He didn't even need to deploy the public relations division of the Atmajaya company to deal with the scandal that had happened before. He didn't need one tip to save Aiden's image. He alone, one person was enough to improve the image of his Master.
In just one day, Anya and Aiden's names were clean again. Not a single person dared to insult them. Nobody dared insult them, or call their relationship an affair. All the women even envied Anya's luck, while some people found their love story very romantic.
Harris saw the response from the crowd with satisfaction. He felt that the results of his work matched his expectations.
When he was reading comment after comment circulating on the internet, suddenly his cellphone rang. On the screen was the name of Aiden's father, Bima Atmajaya.
Harris immediately turned and looked at Aiden who was still leaning with his eyes closed. Aiden's eyes were closed, but he knew that his master was not sleeping. "Sir, Mr. Bima called," said Harris.
Without opening his eyes, Aiden just muttered. "Hmm ..."
With Aiden's approval, Harris immediately picked up the call and was immediately attacked with a series of questions from Bima.
"What is this news just now? Does Aiden have a lover? Since when were they together? Why didn't he introduce the girl to me?"
Bima's voice from the phone sounded so loud that even Anya and Aiden could hear him. Anya felt a little awkward knowing that she was the one being talked about. On the other hand, Aiden seemed completely indifferent.
Harris immediately answered Bima's questions very politely, "Mr Aiden is resting and currently recovering, so he can't see you. Once he feels better, he will meet you soon and introduce his girlfriend." Harris politely explained.
"Who is the girl with him? Have you found out her origin?" Bima continued to bombard him with question after question as if he could not believe that his son had a lover. Or maybe, he thought that because Aiden was blind, Aiden wouldn't be able to find a decent woman to match.
"Mr. Bima, Mr. Aiden has clearly checked her background. Do not worry." Harris answered patiently.
"Harris, I'm very curious about that woman. Aiden can't see, can't I help to see if that woman is a good woman?" Bima did not give up and continued to corner Harris.
The questions choked Harris. He found it difficult to answer, "Sir, this is a personal matter Mr. Aiden..."
Before Harris could continue, Aiden had grabbed the cellphone from Harris's hand and said to his father, "I don't need your permission to date anyone."
He did not wait for an answer from Bima and immediately hung up on the call. After that, he threw the cellphone at Harris. Fortunately, Harris immediately caught it with alacrity so that the cell phone did not fall.
Aiden leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes. His face looked even more irritated than before. His argument with Anya had made him feel a little angry with her. Now, it was as if his irritation had been triggered by questions from his father, making his mood even worse. He frowned, trying to calm himself while reducing the discomfort in his eyes after being exposed to the sun.
Anya could only watch the incident silently. She turned her head to look at Aiden's face and saw the man's forehead frown. She could see the anger Aiden felt was increasing. Before, that man had been very angry with her and now a call from his father made his mood even worse…

Summoner's Journey
[Before you read - the story is officially dead. The reasons behind it are posted in the last chapter.] In a magic world on the verge of an industrial revolution, Ari Ragnarsson must uncover the truth behind his parents' disappearance. They were part of an organization known as the Order, which protects mankind from various threats - both human and supernatural. Now, after Ari's brands finally manifest, he leaves the safety of his village and travels to the continent. Strength is all that matters in this world and he must learn how to control his powers. There, he meets a man from another world, who's being hunted for merely existing. Their fates become intertwined, but not in a way either of them would appreciate. Author's note (contains minor non-story related spoilers about the MC and setting) This is a progression fantasy with LITRPG elements sprinkled on top. The main character is not a spellsword, but a summoner/support mage hybrid. Since he wasn't ambushed by a random god, there's no cheat item/spell and he has to rely on his skills and wits to survive in a world full of monsters. The story tries to show the moment when the old starts to be replaced by the new, with a healthy dose of magic and a little steampunk in the background. Also, it revolves around a party dynamic akin to RPG sessions. No health/mana bars. Numbers are secondary and the LITRPG elements focus more on classes/spells/runes and their evolutions. Tables are sparse at the beginning, but from chapter 7 onwards they appear more often. Still, I won't be copy-pasting the whole character sheet dozens of times per chapter.

Gods of Arkanoth
The hunter has been betrayed, left alone in the streets of a lugubrious district. Only one goal appears in his eyes: to avenge himself. In his quest to avenge himself, he'll encounter an enigmatic scientist who seems to hide his true nature, a savior pretending to be a God, and the terrible truth of those words, bringing him against something he'd never thought he'd have to affront. This is the odyssey of the hunter, in a quest to put a long overdue end to a war between two worlds. // What to expect:The beginning will surely be intriguing, most of what's happeing won't be directly explained, although there will be some hints about their true roles, but do not worry about some subjects never leaving that misty fog that is unanswered questions! The novel is divided in two parts, the first focusing on uncovering the well-hidden secrets the city of Arkanoth hides, be it concerning its making or its inhabitants. As for the second part, it will be an expedition into the unknown, we could, in a way, say the true start of the journey our three heroes will undertake! I won't say anything more about the second part or else I might tell you an important detail without realizing... As for magic, because yes, there is magic! Although you might not see the shadow of a spell in the first chapters, it will appear in later chapters and will be one of the main subjects of volume 2. There are three heroes, yes, but they will not appear directly. While the first two protagonists appear in quite the beginning, the third will take his time, taking some stroll in the Districts of Arkanoth while we focus on the story of the hunter. But that does not lessen his importance in the story a bit, trust me. What about these three heroes, you say? Well, they all have their own issues, from their character to their torments, and as the story progresses they will have to come clean with their past (character development is to be expected) and will find their reason for fighting, braving all odds. I draw my inspiration from mythology, more precisely Aztec mythology. I want to stay true to a certain extent about it and all the relations between the gods and their role, however I will still change some things to my liking, so do not expect for all of the mythology to be respected to the letter. Finally! I have to say English is a foreign langage for me, so I might not choose the best words or straight-up miswrite something, if it bothers your experience, just tell me in the comments and I'll look into it! It is also my first time writing a book, so some parts might seem sloppy, but I hope I will be able to improve throughout this journey so as to give the most enjoyable reading experience to you. // Who might enjoy this story: Firstly, if you like deep lore and stories in which past plays a big role, you will like how everything unravels to show the hidden truths of the world. However if you do not appreciate not instantly understanding what's happening or who - or even what - this person might be, then you might not appreciate the story. There will be disturbing and gore descriptions, so if you're sensitive, don't like reading about someone being beheaded and such, you should probably pass this one. There is strong langage, although I won't abuse it, I won't be lying saying no insults will appear. Finally, the heroes will not always win, they will sometime lose battles, be it important ones or unimportant, and they will, most of the time, not come out unscathed from those. // Time Schedule : once every two sundays at 7:pm Ps : feel free to tell me if something is bad, or feel wrong with the book, it really helps me. I've written till' chapter 4 (in my mother tongue, so I'll still have to translate), however I'll make some minor and major changes, thus it will take some time to post them. Schedule will probably not change after releasing chapter 4, so don't worry, it won't take even longer to post a chapter than it already is. Enjoy the ride :)
