Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 147

"Honey, what's up? Do you miss me? I'm not done with work yet." Nico's voice teased Tara from across the phone.
Tara could only snort at Nico's greeting. Honey? Maybe Nicko called all women in with the same word.
Tara ignored Nico's greeting and immediately asked the gist of the problem. She turned on the speaker of her cellphone so that Anya could also hear what Nico was saying. When Anya heard Nico's voice, she silenced her mouth. She didn't dare to say anything else, afraid that her nephew would find out where she was.
"Nico, I want to ask you something." Tara said.
"I really like you. Really!" Nico said without warning.
Tara rolled her eyes, "I didn't ask that."
"Then what do you want to ask? Just ask!" Nico said with a chuckle. He liked teasing Tara. Tara's reaction was unlike most other women.
"My friend is fighting with her boyfriend. Can you suggest some advice?" Tara asked.
Nico's eyebrows rose. Somehow, his gaze immediately turned to Aiden even though Tara didn't mention who her friend was fighting.
No wonder the uncle returned to the office with a gloomy face. It turned out that his uncle was fighting with his aunt.
On the other end of the phone, Anya gripped Tara's hand tightly and shook her head exasperatedly, signaling Tara not to say anything.
Tara just winked at Anya and put on a 'don't worry' face. Then, she said again to Nico. "My friend was trapped by someone. This person deliberately makes her meet her former lover and is caught by her current lover. She really wants to make up with her boyfriend but doesn't know how to apologize. You're a man. What do you think my friend should do?"
Nico glanced at Aiden. His lips smiled with satisfaction as he stared at his uncle, making Aiden want to throw Nico out of his office window.
"The more a man loves his lover, the more he hopes that she will forget about her past and not have any relationship with her former lover. Why did your friend meet her former lover again?" Nico said irritably.

He called, staring closely at Aiden's face and keeping his distance for fear Aiden would do something to him. His uncle's face was really creepy.
"My friend is very innocent. She doesn't think before she acts so many people take advantage of her. Her boyfriend knew that she was being framed, but he was still angry with my friend. Now the two of them are having a big fight. Do you have any suggestions for solving it?" Tara asked.
Anya could only cover her face in shame. She really wanted to die.
Tara didn't say her name directly, but she had clearly marked it. Nico must have known that the person Tara was talking about was her.
"I have one trick that guarantees her boyfriend will forgive her." Nico said. However, he suddenly felt a cold aura from behind him and saw Aiden staring at him with a murderous gaze.
Nico really wanted to cry to see him, 'Uncle, I'm trying to help you! Why are you looking at me like that? Auntie is too innocent and doesn't know what your attitude is, so I intend to help her!' He cried to himself.
Aiden understood Nico's intentions but he just replied with a cold stare as if telling Nico to mind his own business.
Nico wanted to run away from Aiden's office with his cell phone, but Aiden cleared his throat. He stopped and did not dare to get out of the place.
"What must she do? What must my friend do to make her lover forgive her? Should she clear up the misunderstanding first?" Tara asked.
"What misunderstanding? Your friend did meet her former lover. It wasn't anyone's fault, but her own. Wasn't she the one who got herself framed?"
Nico glanced at Aiden to see how his uncle had reacted. Upon seeing Aiden not saying anything, he continued, "Her boyfriend loves her very much and cares about her feelings, but your friend doesn't feel the same way. Of course he will be angry. But the truth is, men are very easy to persuade. There are two ways to get to a man's heart, it's either by feeding him and sleeping with him."

"Only that?" Tara looked suspicious. Indeed, Nico was a true playboy.
"Men are not as complicated as women. If you want to seduce me, you can use those two methods too. I'll definitely fall in love with you right away." Nico said with a smile.
"Do not dream!" Tara snorted coldly. Then she asked, "Isn't my friend's lover too bad?"
"If a man loves his girlfriend, of course he doesn't want another man in his lover's heart. Give advice to your friend not to see their ex-boyfriend again and not to have a relationship with their ex-lover. The past is the past." Nico explained. Then he added, "If your friend still wants to be friends with her former lover, she should ask her current lover's approval. Otherwise, it would be treasonous."
Anya nodded and gestured for Tara to immediately hang up.
"All right, I'll tell her." Tara said. After a brief pause, she asked again, "How to seduce a man?"
"Hmm...To seduce men is..." Nico saw Aiden's face getting creepy and he immediately said, "You better look it up on the internet."
"Fine then. Thank you." Tara said, immediately hanging up.
Nico looked at his cell phone, trying to hold back his smile. He walked over to Aiden and sat on the edge of the table, "Uncle, did you fight with auntie?"
"No." Aiden said coldly.
"Auntie is very young. You have to be patient in dealing with her, uncle. You have to guide her, but also not be too harsh on her." Nico suggested.
"Am I too hard?" Aiden's eyes glared at Nico, frightening him.
"Uncle, can we speak casually?" Nico immediately got off Aiden's table and made a square to escape, "If you come home tonight and aunt seduces you, you can take the opportunity and forgive her."
"Go." Aiden grumbled.
"I don't have a job. Communication problems in bed..."
"Go away!" Aiden picked up the document on the table and threw it at Nico.
Nico immediately jumped nimbly. He took and tidied up the document, then put it on Aiden's desk before running away.
…
At exactly seven in the evening, Hana called Aiden and said, "Sir, tonight Anya will cook especially for you. What time will you be home?"
"She wants to please me with cooking?" Aiden snorted coldly.
"Sir, Anya was hurt but still willing to cook for you. Her feet are bandaged but she has to stand for hours in the kitchen. Her hand was accidentally scratched by a knife. She also accidentally got hit by hot oil. Anya tries hard to cook for you tonight." Hana said, trying to persuade Aiden.
"Why is she so careless…" Aiden sneered.
"Anya is still very young. If something happens, it's better to talk about it in person. Anya will definitely want to listen. Go home, sir, accept your wife's sincere apology." Hana suggested.
"I'll come back later. Tell her to eat first." Aiden said before hanging up the phone.
He wanted to go home and see Anya's condition. He also wanted to try Anya's cooking. But he held himself back when thinking about what Anya had done.
Aiden was working late in his office and didn't come home until ten at night. When he got home, it was nearly eleven.
As soon as he got out of the car, he saw a tiny figure running towards him.
Not waiting for Aiden's reaction, Anya immediately rushed to bury her body in Aiden's arms. Her hands tightly hugged Aiden's waist.
