Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 495
Advertisement
In the past, Aiden thought hiding everything from Anya would be the best decision. He thought being a jerk on purpose could make Anya forget him and live a new life.
He didn't even hesitate to act like a complete asshole and take advantage of Keara in his game.
He didn't want to hurt Anya and hoped to reduce the pain she felt. But he was forced to do all that rather than letting her know the truth.
But in the end, he could only hurt the woman he'd devoted his heart to.
He even made Anya almost lose her womb. He almost made her unable to have more children.
Anya was bleeding profusely from taking a large dose of abortion medicine.
Under Aiden's threat, the doctors who operated on Anya finally tried their best to save her uterus. But unfortunately, Anya's body was injured so badly and it was difficult for Anya to get back to her feet.
Even so, Anya still chose to leave the house, without bringing anything. She didn't want to have a relationship and didn't want to be involved with the Atmajaya Family anymore.
Aiden opened an internet page and found out about Anya's zodiac sign. As he thought, Anya was a Scorpio.
Anya was unlike most Scorpios, who had a desire for revenge and control over others. But it was true that she always felt suspicious and insecure.
They said, most Scorpios were beautiful and cold, but Anya was not like that. She wasn't only beautiful, but also so warm. She melted everyone around her.
They said that the Scorpios were very understanding and gentle. Even so, they were strong enough to take on anything. They couldn't pinpoint their weakness. But once they found the right partner, they would show their weak side and depend on their partner.
Aiden admitted that the point was very accurate. Anya was indeed a strong woman who could endure everything.
However, the next point made Aiden's eyes turn red. Scorpio women were very loyal women. Once she loved a man, she would never forget him to death.

Aiden was speechless. He felt really stupid.
He was the CEO of a well-known company, but when his office was still busy, he even searched for zodiac on the internet. Was he out of his mind?
Maybe he just wanted to understand Anya more deeply, hoping he could make up for everything.
Anya didn't want money and shares from him. Then, what could Aiden do for her?
…
After one week in the hospital, Anya couldn't wait to come home.
The doctor said that she had to stay about three days long and wait for the approval of other doctors to be discharged before going through the procedure.
It didn't take long, Aiden immediately got the news that Anya would soon be discharged from the hospital. While in the hospital, Aiden secretly visited her when she was fast asleep.
Tara knew that Aiden used to come to visit Anya. But she decided to pretend she didn't know and not tell Anya.
Not only that, Aiden also followed Nico's advice. He ordered all his guards to guard Anya from afar, from nowhere to be seen.
The sudden news made Aiden's heart sink. Anya would be discharged soon. Did that mean, Anya would be leaving soon?
She had put all her belongings in a suitcase and taken them to the hospital.
She wouldn't return to that house.
After being discharged from the hospital, where would Anya stay?
That night, after learning about Aiden's plan from Nico, Tara looked for an excuse saying that something happened to her family so she couldn't accompany Anya in the hospital.
Anya didn't suspect her. Tara had been accompanying her for a week at the hospital. She was already very grateful. Tara also had a family of her own that she had to take care of.
Plus, her body was slowly getting better.
There was no problem whatsoever to her health except mild anemia. With just a few days of rest, she would recover again.

Physical wounds would heal sooner or later, but Anya didn't know how long it would take her to heal the wounds in her heart.
Around one in the morning, Anya felt a hand holding her face as she fell asleep.
She stretched out her hand, tried to brush it off, but grabbed it instead.
"Husband, go to sleep. Don't be noisy," without realizing it, Anya embraced the hand and buried her head before falling back asleep.
Aiden froze in place. He tried to pull his hand back, but he couldn't do it.
He really didn't know what to do now.
In his heart, he hoped that Harris could find Nadine and tell her that someone had deliberately changed the result of the DNA test.
But Nadine disappeared again. Harris was still trying to find her in Hong Kong.
Meanwhile, Anya would be leaving this hospital soon. What should he do?
Should he let Anya go? Or keep Anya beside him?
Anya started to wake up from her sleep. She didn't open her eyes but she knew already that the hand she was holding was Aiden's.
Aiden came to see her while she was asleep.
Was this the first time Aiden had come? Or did Aiden come every night?
Anya didn't want to ask and she didn't want to know. She just turned around and turned her back on Aiden.
Aiden lost his place. Looking at Anya's small back on the bed, he didn't want to go. But he also didn't have the courage to embrace her.
Anya could only try to hold back her tears.
After a long silence, Aiden finally got up and left the room.
Before closing the door to the room, Aiden stared at Anya closely. His eyes were filled with reluctance and a sense of helplessness and regret.
Anya could hear the sound of the door closing, followed by her sobs. She just pulled the blanket over her head and cried until she was tired of draining her tears.
…
With Raka's help, Anya was able to get through the hospital procedures easily and headed straight to the airport.
"Anya, don't you want to tell Aiden?" Raka asked. He knew Aiden still loved Anya. At the very least, he wanted them to meet one last time before separating.
"I don't want to see him," Anya answered in a low voice.
"You may never see him again. Are you sure you won't regret it?" Raka picked up his phone and was about to call, but he heard Anya say, "Aiden came to my room last night."
"What?" Raka was surprised to hear that.
"I just found out about it. What do you think Aiden really wanted? He said he wanted to divorce me and kill my child. But he still ordered his guards to look after me. Even now, he doesn't want to say the reason why he wants to divorce me. I'm really tired and I just want to go," Anya whispered.
In the end, Raka decided not to call Aiden, "Fine then. I won't call him and won't tell anyone,"
Raka deliberately took one week off to take Anya to meet Diana in India and then sent her to France.
He said that he wouldn't tell anyone, but Raka had told Nico his "vacation" before putting down his cell phone.
He didn't know whether Nico understood the code from him or not.
He didn't know if Nico would tell Aiden.
Let fate decide.
After seeing Raka's picture, Nico felt very jealous!
But then he wondered. Their company was very busy, as was Raka's company. How could that guy take time off in the middle of this all?
Why did Nico feel that something was wrong?

Midara: Requiem
"When the alternative is extinction, all acts, no matter how heinous, are permitted." The story of a little necromancer who only wants to play with abominations against all that is holy dollies and her horsey, Mister Clackybones. Welcome to the novelization of one script I designed for a video game setting I call Midara (I selected the name of a genus of moths for symbolism purposes, not to be confused with anything else). Once upon a time, I dreamed of the setting being the next Final Fantasy. Long story short: Nope. Requiem itself is meant to be an Open-World RPG which adapts to the choices of the player. This is just one of many, many paths that one might follow in Requiem's gameplay, if it ever becomes a game.
