Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 631
Advertisement
"Has Keara returned to Indonesia?" Harris asked.
"I didn't see her at her store. Maybe she doesn't dare return here? My uncle was seriously injured and she also nearly hurt my aunt. The first thing my uncle did after he was discharged from the hospital was to look for her. I think the Pratama family helped her to hide," Nadine said.
"Uncle Galih said he would cut ties with Keara, but he was only pretending," she added.
"No matter how angry a father is, he can't just abandon his child," Harris took a deep breath.
"But this time, Keaera has gone too far. She even intended to kill my aunt. She really is a cruel woman," Nadine said angrily.
"Natali is dead. Her death made us unable to find Keara's involvement. Plus, Keara has been pregnant for six months. If nothing happens, she will give birth to the child soon. This will make things difficult for sir," Harris' frown creased deeper. "What we have to do right now is find her as soon as possible."
"It's too late to look for her now. She will never want to abort the child. But is it really my uncle's child?" Nadine asked curiously.
"We will know after the child is born. But seeing Master's attitude, everything should be fine." If Aiden didn't panic, Harris wouldn't be afraid either. It looked like Aiden already had found a way.
"Today is really tiring. Fortunately, everything went well and it was satisfying. Now, I'm really tired!" Nadine said, leaning her head on Harris' shoulder.
"Let me carry you," Harris crouched down in front of Nadine.
Nadine hesitated for a moment, but in the end, she climbed onto Harris's back.
His broad back made Nadine feel safe. She leaned her head and felt her body shake every time Harris took a step forward. "When are you going to propose to me in front of my family?"
"Are you impatient to marry me?" Harris asked with a smile.
"I'm not in a hurry," Nadine hugged his neck from behind. "We can get engaged first."

"Why do you suddenly want to get engaged? Did something happen?" When he heard Nadine urge him, Harris sensed something was wrong.
"Actually, a colleague of my grandfather came to him saying he wanted to match his child with me, but my grandpa still hesitated. If you don't hurry, maybe grandpa will set me up with someone else," Nadine said softly.
"I'll talk to Mr. Bima tomorrow," Harris said frantically.
Harris knew that Bima would not allow him to be Nadine's partner. Plus, Nico didn't approve of their relationship either.
But Aiden had promised him. As long as Nadine could return safely, he would help the two of them. Of course Nadine liked Harris too.
Aiden didn't care about his family background. It didn't matter if Harris had a good family background or how much money he had. All he wanted was Harris' sincerity to Nadine.
"How about using a child to force Grandpa to accept our relationship?" Nadine said suddenly.
She suggested to make love before marriage and get pregnant first so that nothing could get in the way of their relationship. But that's not what Harris wanted.
Harris laughed. "Nadine, don't tell me to do such a crime."
"Don't you dare?" Nadine muttered.
"I can do it, but I don't want to. I wanted to get your family's approval sincerely, not in such a pushy way," Harris said softly.
Nadine smiled at that. "Anyway, I want to marry you. I will ask for help from my uncle tomorrow."
"Alright," Harris replied.
Aiden still didn't know that someone had come to the Atmajaya family's house and proposed an arranged marriage with Nadine because he was too busy with his own business today.
Today was a special day for him.
Anya was sitting on the bed looking at the ring on her hand. She had seen the ring in a magazine when she was helping Nico choose Tara's ring.
She didn't know how Aiden found out she liked the ring.
All she knew was, the ring circled her finger with a very fitting size.

Aiden had just finished taking a shower and returned to his room when he saw Anya still staring at the ring. He chuckled and asked, "Do you like it?"
"How do you know I like this ring?" Anya asked with a smile.
"When we helped Nico choose a ring, I saw you keep looking at this ring, so I bought it."
Anya's face immediately turned red. "Am I that obvious?"
"You looked at the ring and then at your finger. So I knew you must've wanted it," Aiden laughed as he said, "Next time, tell me what you like. Let me buy it for you."
"But this ring is a limited edition. It's not easy to get. And this ring is also expensive." Although Anya really liked this ring, she still prefered to save some money.
"This husband of yours is not short of money," Aiden stroked Anya's head and said fondly.
"Aiden, why are you this perfect?" Anya hugged his waist and looked up, looking at her husband's face. "You are handsome, rich, can sing and love me very much. I'm really lucky to have found you," she grinned broadly.
"I'm the luckier one. I can have you and our child too," Aiden's big hand landed on Anya's stomach. The babies in Anya's belly moved, as if they could feel a warm touch from their father.
"Oh, the baby is kicking!" Anya laughed and touched her stomach. "Don't fight. It's time for you guys to sleep."
It seemed that her twins were looking for a comfortable position. Anya's gentle touch made them fall back to sleep.
Aiden opened the blanket and covered Anya's body before he laid down beside his wife. Anya immediately approached him, feeling so happy.
"Anya, when did you first meet me?" Aiden asked suddenly.
Anya laughed hearing that. "Are you testing me? I remember the first time I met you when we were kidnapped," she replied softly, "Actually, I wanted to ask you a question. What did you think when you first saw me?"
"I don't like you?" Aiden answered with honesty.
Anya immediately got up from the bed. "Why? You didn't like me when you saw me?"
"Your face is similar to Keara. So I don't like it." What Aiden said was completely honest from his heart. He and Anya already trusted each other so he had nothing to cover up.
Anya recalled the situation at that time. Aiden fainted when he was taken to the warehouse. And when he saw her face, Aiden immediately acted cold to her.
But Anya saved him that day. That's why, Aiden returned the favor and helped Anya to escape.
Anya's warmth while hugging his cold body changed him forever.
She was not the same as Keara, even though their faces were similar.
At that time, Aiden was actually capable of climbing out of the window and ran away.
But he decided to help Anya out first. He could not bear to leave her there alone, even if he had to lose his life.
At that time, Anya felt Aiden's way of talking to her was rude, but she knew that he was actually very kind. Even though they didn't have a relationship back then, Aiden still chose to save her first.
"Aiden, you said that we met before, but I don't remember at all. I thought you thought of me as a substitute for someone all this time. But it turns out that we've met before. When you had a high fever and chills, did you feel my warmth?" Anya asked on purpose, teasing Aiden.
"Hmm..." Aiden replied briefly.
He could not tell Anya that he wasn't only feeling her warmth, but also her tenderness and her fragrance that aroused him.
When he realized that Anya's naked body had warmed him, he wanted to escape but he seemed to have no strength. His whole body seemed to be on fire.
If it weren't for him getting kidnapped in an empty warehouse, maybe Aiden would have been really tempted!

Determined to know more about it, he finds out that there are ties to an old abandoned house he always passes by in the neighborhood, seeing it as a lead. Hesitant at first, due to the fear of breaking and entering. In order to find out more, he needed to go into the abandoned house where he finds a mysterious door that isn't like any other in the house.

To this, the girl replies with a serious tone, "1927." Steven doesn't know what to do with all this information.
