Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 245
Advertisement
"Do you miss me?" Anya lifted her head in Aiden's embrace and asked innocently.
Aiden put his hands around Anya's waist, lowered his head and kissed her lips, "When you're not here, I can't work properly. I keep looking at my cell phone to see where you are."
"Did Harris tell you where we were going?" Anya narrowed her eyes.
Aiden just chuckled. "Hmm... That's why I can come down and see you right away," the smile on his face was full of love.
"My husband is the best." Anya clung to Aiden's arms spoiled. "Have you finished work?"
"Hmm... Let's go," Aiden took Anya's hand toward the car.
Harris gave the car's key to Aiden. "Sir, I will have someone guard you from a distance. If there is no more work, can I go home?"
"I heard Sis Maria arranged a blind date for you?" Aiden asked Harris.
Anya looked from beside Aiden. "Harris is going on a blind date?" she asked curiously.
"Sir, please don't tease me. I still don't want to get married," Harris replied with a little embarrassment.
Aiden's eyebrows lifted slightly as he said, "I heard that your blind date is Ms. Maria's niece. Just try to meet up first. Who knows if you two will match each other."
"Sir, my mother and I are going to Father's night. I had no intention of going on a blind date," Harris said politely.
Anya saw Harris starting to feel uncomfortable so she immediately interrupted before Aiden could speak. "Harris, you can go home. We will go first," Anya immediately pulled Aiden to the car.
After getting into the car, Aiden looked at Anya in surprise, "What's wrong?"
"Why are you like that? You and Nico are mated for the sake of the company. Why should Harris also be sacrificed?" Anya glared angrily.
"The Atmajaya family and the Dirgantara family, Ms. Maria's family, have become in-laws. If Harris married Sister Maria's nephew, wouldn't that strengthen our family ties? Why not?" Aiden said casually.

"What does it have to do with Harris if you want to strengthen your family ties? Harris is not a member of the Atmajaya Family. You can't force him to marry the person of your choice." Anya stubbornly defended Harris.
Although she was angry with Harris over her garden guarantee issue, she still thought that Aiden should have considered Harris's feelings in this matter.
This was Harris's personal matter. Aiden shouldn't have forced Harris to marry a woman he didn't love just because Harris was his assistant.
After marrying Aiden, Harris and Hana always helped her. She would not let Harris be sacrificed for the sake of the Atmajaya Family.
Three years ago, Aiden got engaged to Natali so that the Atmajaya Group could buy the land belonging to the Tedjasukmana family.
Three years later, when Atmajaya Group wanted to work with the Mahendra Family, Nico would become engaged to Raisa.
Now, Harris was about to be involved. To strengthen the relationship between the Atmajaya Family and the Dirgantara Family, Harris was sacrificed to go on a blind date with Sister Maria's nephew.
What did all this mean? How about their feelings?
Why were everything arranged according to their interests and without love?
Wasn't marriage a sacred thing?
Aiden and Nico were born in the Atmajaya family so they enjoyed how good of a life they had as the sons of Atmajaya. That's why it's only natural that they had to make sacrifices for the sake of the family.
However, what about Harris? Harris was not a member of the Atmajaya Family. He did not get the luxury, power and wealth that the Atmajaya Family had.
Why did Harris also have to make sacrifices?
"You know what Maria is like. Her family also has a similar character. Harris has long served for the Atmajaya Family and of course I will give my best for him." Aiden said.
Anya blinked her eyes repeatedly.
Was she thinking too far? Did she judge the Atmajaya Family too badly?

"The Atmajaya family would not treat Harris badly," Aiden said in a calm voice.
"I thought you wanted to use Harris for the benefit of your family. But still, I hope you can introduce Harris to the right woman, the woman he likes," Anya said. She was no longer angry like before.
"The woman Harris likes will likely not come back," Aiden replied.
"Harris has a woman he likes? But you still arrange blind dates for him? What do you mean the woman will never come back?" Anya asked.
"Harris likes Nadine," Aiden said.
"Nadine? Nico's sister?" Anya then realized. "Isn't Keara back? Ask Keara where Nadine really is. Maybe we can find her!"
"If Nadine is still alive, why doesn't she come home?" Aiden's eyes looked more and more gloomy. "Keara and Nadine went together but Keara came home alone. Keara also never appeared in front of the Atmajaya Family, it's because she couldn't explain to us."
Anya shook her head, "Maybe she kept the news for something."
"Keara will appear at my father's birthday party." Aiden adjusted his car GPS and drove with ease. Then, he changed the subject. "Did your father come looking for you earlier?"
"Hmm... It's nothing," Anya said, smiling faintly. "Don't worry. I will not pity him."
Aiden reached out his hand to gently stroke Anya's head. "What did he say?"
Anya turned her head, facing Aiden. Her hand lifted and gripped Aiden's hand that touched her head and put their interlocked hands on her thigh. "He said, as long as I donate my kidneys to him, he will return my mother's villa to me. I said that the villa belongs to my mother and I will take it myself without begging him to."
"You did the right thing. I am proud of you!" Aiden exclaimed.
"Did I not deserve a gift?" Anya said with sparkling eyes when she heard Aiden's praise.
At that time, they were at a red light. Aiden immediately gave Anya a gift by kissing her lips.
Anya pushed Aiden's body in panic. "You are still driving. Be careful!"
"The light is still red," Aiden said, kissing Anya once again. Anya pushed Aiden's chest and turned to avoid his lips. "Kissing while driving is prohibited!"
Aiden's lips brushed Anya's cheek and he whispered in her ear, "Which rules forbid kissing your own wife in the car?"
"All activities that endanger security while driving are prohibited. I got good marks for theory on the driver's license exam." Anya said seriously.
"Can you drive?" Aiden was surprised to hear that.
"I have a driver's license, but I'm much better at theory than practice," Anya smiled shyly.
Aiden looked down at the street and considered something. Then he said, "I'll teach you to drive in the area around the housing."
"Are you going to make me your driver now?" Anya looked at Aiden and asked while teasing him.
Aiden's brows raised. "Don't you want to?"
"My salary is expensive, you know!" Anya held out her hand. "If you want to make me your driver, you have to pay me."
"I can pay your salary," Aiden smiled in a very casual manner as if money was no big deal for him.
Anya frowned. "Aiden, I saw what's inside your safe. Isn't your salary only 60 million per month? That's why I volunteered to help pay for the electricity and water costs. Now, I know that you have money investing in gold… "
"How about you improve your driving skills and become my driver to pay the electricity and water bills?" Aiden interrupted her.

Saga of Fallen Kings, Book I: The Revenant Prince
The Philosopher King once conquered the known world, his power seemingly unlimited and his armies inexhaustible. Since that time his might has slowly unravelled, and his once steadfast empire has begun to crack, splinter and devour itself. In the isolated Southern Realms, where even magic has abandoned them, none of that matters. For years it has been filled with warring kingdoms, where as many kings die to the blade as to old age, and constant battles tear apart the land. When one such kingdom invades its old enemy, the King and his heir, Prince Caden, are killed. Unable to accept the loss of his family Prince Arian is broken, and when the Philosopher King stretches out his hand in aid, Arian takes it without a second thought. When Caden wakes from death, he's different. His eyes and soul have changed, and he finds a world filled with friends who no longer trust he's even human. Suddenly thrust onto the throne and indebted to the Philosopher King, Caden has no choice but to keep going - he must finish what his father started, and try to survive the machinations of the figure who now owns his fealty. Meanwhile something beyond death stirs for him, desiring nothing more than to drag him back into its embrace. Author's Note: This story used to be known as "A King of his Own", but after some consideration I have decided to rebrand it. The first reason is that I was growing increasingly dissatisfied with the title. The second is that I have come increasingly to view this story as a 'saga' containing multiple 'books' rather than one long, continuous publication, and as I did so I realized that as I was quickly getting to a point in the story where I wanted the first 'book' to end. This doesn't mean I'm going back on the things I said below - they're just going to continue in the next book of the Saga of Fallen Kings. :) Also, be aware that I do plan to edit this at some point. Though I take care to squash out any obvious errors when I proof-read, and do simple edits in that process, at some point I'm almost certainly going to do large edits that might significantly change parts of the story. Old author's notes: This started as a completely random writing session. There was no purpose or direction, but as I kept typing an entire world began to form in my mind that I knew I had to write about. My plan is to turn this story into a veritable medieval fantasy epic that spans an entire world, follows multiple character and storylines, and takes place over many years. The story has quite a grounded, almost 'realistic' start, but many more fantastical elements will be introduced, expanded upon and become central to the narrative. I have ideas for this story that make me genuinely excited and I hope you enjoy my work as much as I enjoy writing it, and join me on what will hopefully become a truly massive fantasy epic. If you do enjoy this story please consider following, rating and leaving a review. I'm also happy to answer any questions or comments you have.
