Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 33
Advertisement
For the past three days, Anya spent time resting at home. Anya's condition had improved, but she still followed Doctor Tara's advice not to overwork herself until she was fully recovered.
During those three days, Aiden brought his work home. Of course, he didn't tell Anya that he was working from home as Anya's condition had not fully recovered. He said that his company was not that busy so he didn't have to come to the office in person.
This afternoon, Anya felt she was getting better and was very bored, resting in the room all day. Finally, she decided to go down and help Hana in the kitchen. Today, she and Hana were baking cookies while chatting to kill their time.
"Anya, would you like to bring some of these cookies for Mr. Aiden?" Hana asked.
That seemed like a pretty good idea. Aiden was currently working with Harris in his office. Working too long sure made them feel hungry and these cookies were the perfect snack for them.
"Okay, I'll also make tea for Aiden." She said.
They immediately put some pastries on the plate. Then, she used a tray to carry the plate and two cups of hot tea to Aiden's study.
Before she had time to knock on Aiden's door, Anya heard a voice from inside, "Uncle, come to the office! I'm so busy without you. It feels like I'm almost dead." Someone said from within Aiden's study.
It looked like Aiden was meeting his guests. Anya canceled her intention to knock on Aiden's door and decided to wait for Aiden to finish his business first. She could send these cookies and tea later.
However, before she could turn around and leave, Harris suddenly walked out of the room.
"Madam! Are you looking for sir?" Harris asked when he saw Anya standing in the doorway.
"I just wanted to deliver cookies and tea, but it looks like Aiden is busy. I can come back later." Anya replied.
From inside the room, Aiden could hear Anya's voice, "Come in, I'm not busy," He said.
Harris opened the door wider so that Anya, who was carrying a tray of snacks and tea cups, could enter more easily. After that, he left the room so that his Master could chat with her privately.

When entering the room, Anya saw a handsome young man was there. His stature and face looked similar to Aiden's. With just one look, everyone could tell that the two of them were related.
However, in contrast to Aiden who was cold and serious, the young man looked cheerful and very expressive when he spoke. He wore casual clothes. The torn shirt and jeans he was wearing made him look younger. His appearance contrasted Aiden who always wore formal clothes wherever he went.
If Aiden were the moon hanging alone at night, then this young man was the warm daylight sun.
When he saw Anya enter the room, the young man immediately approached Aiden. He shook Aiden's arm and shouted without hesitation as if Anya wasn't there, "Ah! I just remembered that uncle already has a lover! No wonder uncle doesn't want to come to the office and keeps shutting himself at home!" His eyes looked back and forth at Aiden and Anya with teasing looks.
Apparently, the young man had heard the latest news about Anya and Aiden from the rumors, so he immediately recognized Anya even though they just met for the first time. It seemed that the young man had seen her face from the recording circulating on the internet.
Hearing the young man's words, Aiden flicked the young man's forehead a little hard so that the man immediately rubbed his slightly red forehead, "You are rude. Give greetings to your aunt!" Aiden said.
'Aunt? AUNT!'
Anya seemed to proceed the scene in front of her at low speed. She saw the young man thinking, digesting Aiden's words. The young man's eyes widened when he finally understood what Aiden said and immediately turned his head towards his uncle, "Uncle! When are you getting married? Why don't you invite me? Don't you love me anymore?" As if getting a flick on his forehead was nothing, the young man was shaking Aiden's arm again. However, Aiden looked patient when he faced the young man's behavior.
Before Aiden could answer, the young man stopped shaking his body and put his hand over his mouth, "Did you elope because you didn't get your blessing?"

A punch landed on the young man's head, a response to what he had asked. Aiden paid no heed to his question and looked at Anya, "Come here," He said softly.
Anya immediately approached Aiden's desk and put the tray she brought on the table, "I brought snacks and tea for you." She said.
"Hmm ..." Aiden nodded when he saw Anya put the tray in front of him. He looked ordinary, but his eyes radiated a joy that no one could see.
"This is Nico Atmajaya. He is the son of my eldest brother." Finally Aiden introduced the two of them.
Nico's mouth fell open when he heard Aiden's gentle tone when talking to Anya. He never heard his uncle speak like that. It made him feel both amazed and goosebumps with amusement. He could see all the hairs on his hands standing up.
After that, he immediately approached Anya and shook her hand, "Greetings, Auntie. My name is Nico."
Anya accepted the handshake awkwardly. Anya didn't think she had a nephew this big! It seemed that her age and that of her nephew were not so different that it felt very strange when she heard someone her age called her aunt.
"Don't call me aunt. Just call me Anya." She replied awkwardly.
However, Nico did not let go of Anya's hand after he finished shaking her hand. Instead, he brought Anya's tiny hand to his lips and kissed the smooth hand.
First of all, Anya was very surprised when she saw Nico's attitude. But from the way the young man carried himself, Anya could tell that Nico seemed used to doing things like this to women. He was used to flirting with women, to be precise all women!
Aiden immediately threw one of the books on the table and it hit Nico's body, making him groan. "Uncle! What are you doing?" Supposedly, his uncle couldn't see what he was doing. Why did his uncle suddenly throw a book at him? Did he–
"I have a feeling you did something bad." Aiden replied indifferently.
Nico just grinned when he heard his uncle's words. His uncle knew him very well. He was used to flirting with women, regardless of age. He was a playboy to his core!
Anya chuckled when she saw these two people's behavior. It was the first time she saw this side of Aiden. Aiden and Nico had a good relationship and it made them look like real siblings.
The scent of freshly cooked cookies wafted from Aiden's table, making Nico's stomach churn with hunger. He immediately picked the cookie on the table and was about to put the cake into his mouth.
However, before he could lift his hand, Aiden hit his hand, causing the cake to fall back onto the plate.
"Ouch, uncle! I'm hungry and I want to eat that cake! You don't like sweet foods, it's better for me than wasting it." Nico looked sullen as he stroked his hand.
"From now on I like sweet food..." Aiden's answer made Nico's mouth open. His uncle was totally in love!
Anya just laughed seeing the small argument between the two men, "There are still lots of cakes below. I'll take it again from the kitchen…"
"No need, he's going home already." Aiden cut her.
Nico immediately turned his head to look at his uncle. Since when did he say he wanted to go home? He didn't want to go home yet, but his uncle gently kicked him out.
"Eh? Don't you want to come to dinner with us?" Anya invited him.
Aiden glared at Nico, telling him to get out of the house. But Nico ignored his uncle's gaze. He stuck his tongue out at Aiden, assuming his uncle couldn't see him, "I want to come to dinner!"
'This one kid!' Aiden grumbled inwardly, rolling his eyes at his nephew's behavior.
