Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 115

"Yes, it's possible that he's spoiling you now. But he could also just throw you away. If you don't want to be hurt, better don't get involved with him." Tara's words were like a knife stabbing her heart.
"Tara..."
"Why don't you eat?" Tara had already lifted her spoon and fed it into her mouth.
The food in front of her was truly luxurious, as if it was cooked straight from a five star hotel. Tara couldn't help feeling hungry and immediately devoured the food, "Your food is extraordinary."
Seeing Tara's behavior, Anya could only laugh, "I have to go back to work again at night. Mrs. Hana prepares various kinds of food so that I won't starve."
"It's not just a lot, it's extraordinarily plentiful and luxurious!" Tara said, taking a slice of meat and eating it, "You can come to visit me again tomorrow!"
"Just say you want to eat!" Anya said with a laugh.
"Right! Tell Mrs. Hana to bring more food." Tara didn't feel embarrassed at all.
However, Anya also didn't mind. She really liked Tara's honesty. She just nodded and began to lift her cutlery.
After their dinner, Tara sat on the sofa lazily and told Anya to start learning massage.
"How should I get started?" Anya frowned.
"I will teach you and point out the points of relaxation, especially for the eyes." Tara made herself an experimental material, while Anya continued to listen intently to Tara's orders.
Thirty minutes later, Anya could feel her hands went numb, "I'm tired."
"Have you memorized all the acupoints for relaxation that I teach you?" Tara asked.
"Yes, I have. But I didn't expect it to be so tiring to massage someone." She was determined to help Aiden in his recovery. But it seemed her strength was still so weak that maybe Aiden would only feel ticklish when Anya massaged him.

She had to improve her stamina and keep learning!
"Come back tomorrow. Don't forget to bring a good dinner." Tara said, smiling broadly.
Anya laughed hearing Tara's words. It looked like she and Tara could be friends, "Okay. See you tomorrow!"
After leaving Tara's clinic, Anya immediately returned to Rose Scent. Ben immediately greeted her and said that Esther had returned and was in her office.
Anya immediately rushed to the top floor. She couldn't wait to work in the perfume room!
When Esther saw her, the woman immediately smiled and said, "Look at this spice that I have brought. You can start mixing basic ingredients for perfume. If you have other ideas, just do as you like."
"Where can I do it?" Without realizing it, Anya's eyes were fixed on Rose Scent's large perfume room. The room was like heaven to her, equipped with all kinds of sophisticated equipment and various spices and plants.
Esther realized where Anya was looking and said casually, "You can use the perfume room."
"Thank you, Mrs. Esther!" Anya felt really excited.
She spent her overtime inside the perfume room. Her heart felt very calm and peaceful. No distraction, no fuss, no one looking for her anymore.
Inside the perfume room, amidst all the utensils and perfume ingredients, she felt that it was getting closer to her dream of becoming like her mother…
It was nine o'clock in the evening. Anya was really reluctant to leave the room. She wanted to stay here a little longer, but the shop was closing soon. She couldn't stay there…
Before leaving the perfume room, Anya cleaned all the utensils she used, then locked the door and left.
She came down and gave the key to Ben before leaving Rose Scent.
On the way home, Anya was so excited that she couldn't help calling Aiden.
"Aiden, I was working at the Rose Scent perfume room. I've tried blending various scent mixes and I've been thinking about what perfume I will make for you.�� Anya said excitedly.

"Hmm ... I'm looking forward to it." Aiden's voice sounded calm. Anya didn't know since when this sound made her heart feel more peaceful.
"Don't you want to ask why Raka met me?" Asked Anya after they were quiet for a moment.
"Hmm ... I'm all ears if you want to tell me." Aiden replied. His voice was still calm but there was a touch of coldness in it.
"Raka already knew where the money for my mother's surgery came from three years ago. But I didn't say what Raisa and her mother did to me." Anya said.
Aiden's face frowned slightly when he heard that, "You don't want Raka to fight with his family just because of you. You are also honest with me just to protect Raka. Everything you do, you do it for him." Aiden said. No more warmth could be heard from the voice. His tone was so low that he almost growled.
Anya felt her heart stop beating for a moment. She immediately explained, "That's not what I meant. I just… "
"Just what?" Aiden cut her impatiently.
Anya felt a little panicked because what Aiden said was true. She did all this because she didn't want anything to happen to Raka. Not because she still loved Raka, but because the man had a special place in her heart. She had known Raka since she was a child and would not just ignore him just because they were no longer in a relationship anymore.
But that's not all. Anya told all this to Aiden because she didn't want Aiden to misunderstand her relationship with Raka. She knew how cruel other people's mouths were.
"I'm honest with you because I don't want any misunderstandings between us. I'm honest because I don't want you to hear it from other people." Said Anya in a low voice.
"Have you cut your relationship with him?" Aiden sneered, "Maybe I was really nice to you, but that doesn't mean you can keep testing me."
Aiden immediately hung up without waiting for Anya's answer. It looked like Raka was a very sensitive topic for Aiden. Aiden was indeed a possessive man, so any news about Raka could ignite his anger very quickly.
Previously, Anya was very happy and in a very good mood. But now she felt as if she had fallen to the bottom of the hole and couldn't get out again.
She just wanted to tell Aiden because she didn't want any misunderstandings. She wanted Aiden to believe her because no matter what happened, she would never leave Aiden.
That night, Anya couldn't sleep peacefully. Aiden's anger seemed to continue to haunt her, making her unable to sleep comfortably. Nightmare after nightmare kept taking turns accompanying her sleep. Her head ached when she woke up.
She got up and sat on the bed holding her head. She felt a little dizzy and her nose felt a little runny. It seemed she was too tired to feel well.
During breakfast, Nico came to accompany Anya. He felt a little worried seeing Anya who looked lethargic.
"Auntie, did you not sleep enough last night?" Nico asked.
Anya just looked at him and changed the conversation, "Harris told me that the person you choose demands a high salary. I can't afford it. Isn't there anyone else with lower salary demands?"
Nico laughed when he heard it, "A person with a cheap salary produces less quality. That's not good!"
Anya felt her head hurts even more hearing that. Why couldn't everything go her way?

Memories of the Fall
This is a story about two sisters, Jun Arai and Jun Sana, and their friends, Juni, Ling and Shu who make their living as members of the Hunter Bureau, an organisation dedicated to dealing with the terrifying flora and fauna endemic to their home Great World. When they get dragged into a grand scheme to unpick the ancient secrets entombed within one its foremost forbidden zones in their world, the Yin Eclipse Mountains, they must all try to survive the dark machinations, eldritch undercurrents and the echoes of a terrible conflict trying to re-emerge into an unsuspecting cosmos that had rather hoped it was done with that kind of thing a few eras hence. So please come join Arai, Sana, Juni, Ling, Shu and the rest of my cast as they journey through strange lands, meet all kinds of unusual beings and unravel some of the power and glory of a land time tried very hard to forget. I promise terrifying mushrooms, angry snakes, confused gods, even more confused cultivators and much, much more! Update schedule: (02/6/2022) As chapters are done, sorry. Progress: Currently up to old chapter 13-15. Chapter 24(or 25)/13, Parts 1 & 2 will be the end of the rework. Part 2 has been temporarily delayed due to me getting a frozen shoulder in the middle of June, which has been very slow to properly clear up. It is getting better, though, but Shoulder/neck is the worst set of muscles to have issues with ;( You can currently pick up most story threads after the rewritten chapters, starting from chapter 13-14 (old) Genre-wise, this is a bit hard to pin down. It's technically a Xianxia (because cultivators!), but it also veers towards Xuanhuan and has more traditional High Fantasy elements and a bit of Gods and Monsters and All Myths Are (on some levels) Valid. It also has a fairly large, ensemble cast, so if multiple point's of view are not your thing I am sorry. It won't ever really be considered 'grimdark' by any real measure of that definition but it does go to some complicated and fairly places dark occasionally, which I will note in author pre-chapter notes when expedient!. About the Author I mainly write fiction for my own hobby, it makes a nice change from academic scribbling! I started writing this quite a number of years ago. It has grown somewhat organically out of a bunch of different interests in all kinds of Mythology, World Building, Drawing Maps, Archaeology, Anthropology, History and Epic Fantasy fiction into what it is today. So I hope you enjoy the story and thanks for reading! Other stuff The cover is made by the author, using photos taken by the author. There is a Discord Server- Please come and chat, but beware of spoilers.

Tim the Engineer
Summoned against his will to a world of swords and magic, an engineering student struggles to find a way home under the shadow of a world devouring threat. ***************************** Updates: 5/13/19: Revisions to several chapters for clarity, grammar, and style. 4/29/19: A short side story and artwork has been added to the blog. 4/8/19: A Side Story has been updated on my new blog (every writer is required to have one). https://talesfromliahar.wordpress.com/ ***************************** “The summoning scenarios are broken down into groups of ten.” Emi Ito stated. “Don’t, don’t you dare say another word.” Muttered Genzo Uchida. His eyes had turned bloodshot and his hands shook with rage. “The first thirty…” “Shut up!” Genzo bellowed “How dare you help these disrespectful gaijin?” Flecks of spit and madness flew from his face, his fist raised ready to strike. But Emi did not flinch, instead she was about ready to continue when Yuma Takeuchi interrupted her. “Uchida, please,” her sweet sounding words could melt ice. “I think we will have a better chance of getting home if we all work together.” When she glanced up with her sleepy looking eyes at Genzo Uchida he deflated visibly. “Were not getting home.” Uchida said coolly. “Group summoning, large, that puts us in the 60 series. No one came to greet us after five minutes of arrival. That leaves scenarios 68 and 69. In scenario 68 there is something that binds the large group together; they are all classmates or a single family. But thanks to the gaijin” he spit out the word “I think we are scenario 69 with no way home.” Ikko Inoue’s eyes went wide, while Katsukno and Hayata started muttering to themselves. Tim took on a serious look and rubbed his scruffy chin. Emi maintained her stoic expression while trying to find something to refute. McKenzie glanced at Randall and giggled. Randall took the prompting of his teammate and followed up by approaching Genzo. “Uh, so we are in a sixty-nine?” “Yes.” Replied Genzo with the seriousness of someone who’s life was about to end. McKenzie covered her mouth and snickered. “You and me, were stuck in a sixty-nine situation?” Randall pushed with a grin. “Yes, we are all stuck in a sixty-nine scenario together!” Genzo retorted in anger. McKenzie fell on her butt laughing. “What the hell is so funny?” Demanded Genzo, whose face had turned red. “It’s a problem with the automatic translation.” Retorted Tim. Randall, who seemed unable to quit started in again “So, about this sixty-ni…” Genzo interrupted Randall with a swift punch to the face. But, because of their height difference it was a bit of an uppercut that left Randall rattled. Tim and Ikko moved to step in between the two, but Genzo showed no further hostility. Instead he just stared at his clenched fist with such intensity it grabbed the attention of the room. “I unlocked a skill.” He said bluntly. ***************************** This is not a light novel, but people who like light novels should enjoy the themes of this book. ***************************** A Map of the Region
