Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 446
Advertisement
Aiden's face was tense. His hands were clenched tightly so that the documents in his hands became shabby.
Seeing the reaction from Aiden alone, Maria already knew the result. Her knees couldn't hold her body anymore. She fell to the floor with her hands covering her face, sobbing.
"There must be something wrong. This is impossible!" Aiden shook his head once again. He came out of the room and shouted Harris's name.
Hearing Aiden's call, Harris rushed over to him.
He never saw Aiden shout like that at him. Once inside, he could see Maria sitting on the floor crying uncontrollably. Bima also looked so surprised that his face turned slightly pale.
"Sir, what's wrong?" Harris asked frantically.
Aiden pulled him into the room and slammed the door hard.
Harris did not have time to react when Aiden's large hand suddenly choked his neck. "Where did this report come from?"
"Sir, what's with that report? I don't even dare to open it myself," Harris's face flushed from lack of air flow until he was short of breath.
"Aiden, let go of him!" Bima shouted loudly when he saw that Harris was suffocating.
He could feel his grip on the walking stick getting weaker. His blood pressure got so high that he fell from his seat to the floor.
"Father! Father!" Maria immediately approached him in horror, trying to help him.
This made Aiden regain his senses and immediately let Harris go. He immediately went to Bima to check on his father's condition.
Once released, Harris tried to calm himself and immediately called an ambulance. In no time, the ambulance arrived and Bima was rushed to the hospital.
Outside the emergency room, Maria broke down in tears and hit Aiden in the chest angrily.
"Sis, this is still uncertain…"
"How is that possible? Doctor Tirta couldn't possibly do anything wrong. Or you don't believe in Harris anymore?" Maria interrupted.

Harris was very confused. He didn't know what happened. He didn't even know the results of the report.
"Sir, is Mrs. Maria's daughter..." Harris was unable to ask if Maria's daughter had died. However, seeing Maria's excited and sad reaction like this, Harris thought that her biological daughter was dead. Otherwise, Maria wouldn't be this sad.
"Harris, did you meet someone there? Has anyone other than you touched the results of this report?" Aiden still couldn't accept this fact.
Harris was surprised to hear that. How did Aiden know?
Did Aiden know that he met Nadine in Hong Kong?
In Hong Kong, Harris bumped into Nadine.
Nadine knew that she was not Maria's real daughter and that she was only replacing Maria's biological daughter.
She said to Harris, "Since my mom has found the real Nadine, I better not go back to their lives. Harris, keep our meeting a secret,"
Nadine said that there was something she should investigate at this point.
She also promised to meet Harris in Hong Kong at Christmas and tell him everything that happened since she disappeared.
Thinking about his promise with Nadine at Christmas, Harris finally decided to lie. "Sir, I was just in the hotel and nothing happened there,"
Aiden could only close his eyes and take a deep breath. "Sister Maria, this matter is very important. After I get permission to go abroad, I will go alone to send the DNA test samples. I want to retest!"
"Retest?" Maria's voice suddenly rose. "Do you want to kill me?"
"I'm just asking for a retest!" Aiden said in a sharp voice.
They both were adamant and neither wanted to budge. Maria could not hold back her emotions until she started crying again.
When Nico arrived, he saw his mother was sobbing. "Mother, is grandfather..." he immediately panicked when he saw his mother's condition.

"Last night I was still calling with grandfather. He was very strong when he nagged me. How could grandpa…"
"Why are you crying? I'm not dead!" At the same time, the doctor and several nurses pushed Bima's bed from the emergency room.
Nico immediately wiped his tears and held his grandfather's hand. "Grandpa! I'm so glad grandpa is fine!"
"I still haven't seen you getting married and having children. I won't die before that," Bima patted Nico's shoulder gently.
"Doctor, how is father?" Aiden asked.
"Mr. Bima is old and his blood pressure is quite high. Don't let him get too emotional. This time, his blood pressure rose and caused a small amount of bleeding in the brain. Fortunately, the bleeding is not severe and it will be fine as long as Mr. Bima rest a lot. I suggest staying a few days in the hospital," the doctor replied.
"Grandpa, I will accompany you every day in the hospital," Nico held Bima's hand tightly as he escorted him to the inpatient room.
"I am fine. You don't need to accompany me," Bima's blood pressure was now stable and his condition was not bad.
"Grandfather must live a long life, a hundred or even a thousand years," said Nico. "As soon as I saw mom cry, I thought I wouldn't be able to see you again!"
Bima's face immediately softened when he heard that. His heart also hurt when he thought that he was the one who made his son, daughter-in-law and grandson worry.
"Grandpa is happy to hear that. I won't be able to live a thousand years. I'm not a monster. But I hope to see my children and grandchildren happy," Bima's words made Maria even sadder.
Aiden's face also looked grim and unsightly. Finally, Nico realized that something was wrong. He went to his mother and said, "Mother, grandfather is fine. Don't cry,"
"Nico, what do I do. Your sister…"
"Sis!" Aiden suddenly screamed,
Nico was terrified and then looked at Maria suspiciously. "Mother, what's wrong with my sister?"
"Maybe your sister..." Maria could not bear to tell him.
Harris was even more convinced when he heard this from the door. Nico's missing sister had died so Maria was this sad.
"Father, I still have a lot of work. I'll be back first. Get some rest. Sister Maria and I agreed that after getting permission, I will go and do a retest," Aiden immediately decided without much consideration.
"I don't care. You can take care of it yourself," Bima closed his eyes and didn't want to interfere anymore.
"Aiden, let big sister take you out," Maria wiped the tears from the corner of her eye. She followed Aiden out of the room and walked toward the elevator.
"Sis, let's talk about it in the car," Aiden knew that Maria wanted to say something to him so he invited Maria to get into the car.
Harris, who knew it, immediately intended to get out of the car and provide privacy for both of them. But Maria immediately stopped him. "There's no need to go out. You can hear it too,"
Instinctively, Harris looked directly at Aiden. He would only stay if Aiden agreed to it. The only person he considered his master was Aiden.
Aiden nodded at Harris. His expression didn't change at all, still looking cold and stiff.
Maria tried to stare at him and said calmly, "I hope you can divorce Anya soon. The baby in her womb cannot be born. I can't wait too long. Accept this fact Aiden,"
Harris immediately looked back and looked at Aiden's face in surprise. "Sir, what really happened?"

Runicka: Tournament of Monsters (A GameLit Card Game Fantasy)
The runes are changing, and with it, the game itself changes. Taygion Ardwella finds himself stranded, alone, and on the run from some very determined guards who claim Tay's stolen from them. They're right, but that shouldn't mean Tay has to give back what he took. He's only been in Stormwall for a week and already, he's earning the ire of the most powerful and notorious House that controls the city's underground. And when their scion challenges Tay to a duel of cards, Tay will find himself thrust into a game of sorcery and strategy as he attempts to both find a way out of this mess and find his own way in the world. To do both, he'll need to learn to accept guidance and coaching where it's sorely needed, craft a deck of unimaginable power, and not die whenever his opponents try and cheat him out of a hard-earn victory. But not all is as it seems in the shadows of Stormwall, and if Tay can figure out the importance of what it is he's stolen, he may just have a chance at saving the game of Runicka. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Runicka: Tournament of Monsters is a high fantasy, card game-based adventure novel with enough magic, worldbuilding, and characters to fill a Sanderson series. I would consider it a part of the GameLit subgenre. This series in particular is not an isekai, and will start and end in a high fantasy setting complete with its own lore and backstory. It is a progression fantasy, and I am writing it inspired by all the Yu-Gi-Oh mangas/animes, and all the hours I've invested/wasted (depending on who you ask) playing TCGs like Yu-Gi-Oh and Magic: The Gathering. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ This is a work in progress. In your journey through Stormwall alongside Tay, you'll probably find typos, grammatical errors, and maybe a confusing sentence every once in a while (although I hope to keep these to a minimum). That said, comments and suggestions on where I can improve are not only encouraged but greatly appreciated. And finally, expect new chapters every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~**Currently on a small hiatus. I have a bit of a workplace crisis going on. I'm still writing, but I don't have time to polish and publish. Chapters will return on a regular basis soon though!!**
