Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 388
Advertisement
"Aiden, can't Tara and Nico be together?" Anya asked, looking up at her husband.
"They can't," Aiden answered simply.
"I can see that Tara is just pretending to be strong but actually has Nico in her heart," Anya pursed her lips, looking sad.
"If they love each other, why don't they want to wait for each other? Nico was still unable to stand on his own. He may not really love Tara. Maybe he's just possessive and doesn't want to lose the woman he wants right now," Aiden said.
Anya thought about it carefully and thought that Aiden's concern was quite reasonable. She was also afraid that this was just part of Nico's playboy nature.
"Nobody knows about the future. At least, Tara was willing to give Nico a chance and wait for him. I think that's enough," Anya said, rubbing her head against Aiden's neck. "I'm dizzy, I want to sleep,"
"Go to sleep. I will stay with you," Aiden said in a soft voice.
Anya leaned back in Aiden's arms and fell asleep.
She could vaguely feel Aiden carrying her and leaving the hotel. She didn't know where they were going since she was too tired to open her eyes.
When she woke up, Anya had already returned home. The clock showed one o'clock in the morning.
After resting, her body was now much better than before. She no longer felt dizzy or nauseous. She just felt hungry and wanted to eat.
Anya wore her house slippers and found out that someone had changed her clothes.
She walked out of the bedroom door and heard a voice in the study. That meant Aiden was at work.
Before going downstairs and looking for food, Anya decided to find her husband first. However, she heard a strange sound from the study instead.

"Ah..."
A woman's scream was heard. Anya felt her head buzzing and dizzy. Did Aiden hide a woman in his study?
No, no! Aiden was not that kind of person.
Anya took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She walked into the study and knocked softly on the door. "Aiden, can I come in?"
When he heard Anya's voice, Aiden immediately turned off his laptop and said in a low voice, "Come in,"
Anya then opened the door. Nobody was there other than Aiden. But Anya just heard a woman's voice from the inside the room…
"I woke up and couldn't sleep anymore. But you are not in the room. I want to find a book so I can sleep again," Anya said while approaching the bookshelf behind Aiden's chair. She looked around the room to the very remote place, but she could not find a single person.
Aiden sat on his chair lazily and looked at Anya with a smile. "Have you found the book you want?"
"Yes," Anya took one of the books carelessly to cover up her lie.
"Looks like you are not really looking for books," Aiden immediately exposed Anya's lies.
Anya laughed. "How do you know? I'm actually looking for a cat. I just saw a cat and it suddenly disappeared. I heard its voice from inside this room. I think the cat got in here,"
"I'm not interested in animals. I prefer children over animals," Aiden's tall body immediately approached her.
Anya swallowed hard. A smile appeared on her face, but her legs continued to back off.
She glanced back and looked at the door. When Aiden didn't pay attention, Anya immediately fled and went downstairs.
"Looking for a cat? I think you are the cat," Aiden burst out laughing.

After coming downstairs, Anya grabbed her chest and felt her heart beat fast.
She did not find a woman in Aiden's study, but she was sure that she heard a woman's voice from there. Could it be from an Aiden's laptop?
Luckily, Anya was able to escape quickly. Otherwise, Aiden might drain her energy again.
But Anya couldn't imagine why Aiden watched porn movies. Was that his habit? The man didn't sleep and chose to watch a movie in his study…
Anya went to the kitchen and saw that there was a chicken soup leftover in the refrigerator. She immediately heated it up and ate it heartily.
When Aiden came down, he saw his little wife eating happily. A satisfied expression appeared on his face.
This little wife was so easy to be happy. Seeing Anya that way, Aiden also shared the same feeling.
But when he thought that Natali and Yura were about to harm Anya, Aiden became angry again.
Recently, Anya's voice came from his laptop. He was looking at the footage of Yura being beaten. But he immediately stopped the video when he heard Anya's footsteps.
While viewing the tape, Aiden also devised a plan to ruin Natali's life.
At this time, Aiden's guards were beating Yura in the basement of the Atmajaya Group mall.
Yura almost died from getting jumped by the two men while they were still under the influence of drugs. But when she thought she's finally saved, Aiden's bodyguards beat her instead.
They didn't let Yura die, but also didn't let her live comfortably.
"You have the ability to kill me, but you don't let me die. If I can get out of this place, I will never forgive you!" Yura's hair looked messy. Her clothes were tattered and her eyes were filled with hatred.
"Let me ask you again, who is behind all these plans apart from Natali?" Harris asked coldly.
Yura really didn't want to open her mouth. She only gave Natali's name.
However, Aiden felt that it was not this simple. He had to force Yura to open her mouth.
"I told you that Natali and I planned all this. Whose name do you want to hear?" Yura looked crazy, laughing loudly as if she had lost her mind.
Aiden let Yura live, but he did not heal all the wounds on her body. He left Yura lying on the floor barefoot in a pathetic state.
"Once I get back, I will ask my father to make you pay for this ten times over," Yura said to Harris.
But Harris was too lazy to listen to this crazy woman. Maybe it's true that only Natali was behind this incident so Yura couldn't give another name.
Harris immediately called Aiden, "Sir, Yura admitted that she was working with Natali. Nobody else involved,"
"A few days ago, she also met Keara," Aiden's eyes looked cold. "I don't think it's this simple,"
"Maybe this is just a coincidence. Miss Keara might want to meet all the socialites in this city because she wants to open a perfume shop," Harris said.
"Everyone in the Yura family will immediately search for her. If Yura can lure Natali, I'll let her go," Aiden replied.
"Fine, sir," after Harris hung up, he looked at Yura coldly. "If you can lure Natali, I will set you free,"
Yura was surprised to hear that. "What do you want to do with Natali?"

A Merchants Tale
Legends rise. Country’s fall. Empires wage war. But what supports these great powers, allowing them to function as a single organism. Is it the common man, Farmers and Millers forming the backbone of the land? The Soldiers and Guards keeping public order? The Wives and Widows supporting from the side-lines? The Nobles from their seats of power? Or the elusive Sorcerers who wield power untold? And what maggots crawl in this great creature, all trying to get a piece of its slowly decaying flesh. The gangs of the Underworld hidden in the shadows? The Bandits and Deserters hiding at the edges, ready to pounce on any weakness? Witches and Warlocks working their dark art? Or other Nations clawing at their neighbour’s, salivating over the riches they stand to gain from another’s demise. There is one group that belongs to neither group. They thrive on others misfortune and bring with them salvation and destruction in equal measure. They can raise a kingdom up or tear it down screaming and kicking. These are the merchants, the lifeblood of kingdoms, because what is the one thing above all else men crave. Is it Love? Power? Destruction? All these things can be acquired with one simple thing. Wealth. Wealth is the true power behind the world. Wealth can buy army’s, strangle kingdoms, and turn even the most devout man from his faith. Merchants come in many forms, shapes and sized, some gaudy, bleeding the people for all their worth, some tricky, preferring to make contracts and debts to trap men. And some desperate, doing all they can to sell even the most worthless of junk. This is a story of one merchant who goes against all a merchant stands for. He works not for profit but for some unseen goal, a prophesy aeons old. He comes and goes like a ghost, bringing with him hope and victory. All pray for his arrival to spare them from despair. But what about when he doesn’t show? What about the people he doesn’t save? For this man is no angel, no saint sent to save the masses. His goal was never to deliver hope. It merely isn’t time for their destruction yet. For nothing is eternal. And all things must end. But what comes after? Quick disclaimer in response to the review I got, this is my first story and somewhat of an experiment for me, hopefully my writing will get better the more I practice. Thanks for any helpful advice :)
