Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 744

"Yes. Since you didn't want to work at the Pratama Group, Agnes had to replace you. Tell your dad you want to work there. I want to see what he will do!" Indah said.
Anya smiles seeing her mother. She knows what Indah wants all for her own good. But Anya did not intend to work at the Pratama Group. If Agnes is capable of leading the group then why not?
"Mother, even though we don't want Agnes working in the Pratama Group, we still have to find someone else. We'd better see how Agnes works first. If she's not good then you can fire her at the shareholder meeting," said Anya.
"Your father wants to hand over the company to Agnes, little by little," Indah could not think positively like Anya. She was afraid that if Agnes got into the company, it would be difficult to get rid of her from there.
Anya could see her mother's sad face. Indah is afraid that what should be Anya's right will fall into Agnes' hands one day.
But Anya didn't care at all. Money is not something that is so important to her. Yes, it is true that money is important to make a living. But what Anya has now is much more than what she needs.
Why does she even need to fight over money? One day, even if she died, she would not take the money with her. For her, her family is the most important now.
Today, isn't the quarrel between her parents caused by money too?
"Mother, I just want to do what I love. I want to start a perfumery school and recruit new talents for Iris. As for Pratama Group, it belongs to my father," Anya said, expressing her thoughts.
Pratama Group is Galih's effort, hard work and sweat from scratch, which cannot be left to Anya, someone who simply can't lead a large company.
"You stupid. You are our only child! If not for you, why would I and your dad work so hard? You don't need to take over Pratama Group. After your father retires, you can find someone who can run it for you. But the Pratama Group can't belong to outsiders," said Indah.

"In my father's eyes, Agnes is not an outsider. The more we reject her, the more dad will feel that we are bullying Agnes and he will side with her. So, we have to change our ways. A bit of acting won't hurt, will it?" Anya winked at her mother.
Indah immediately laughed. "You..."
Anya laughed too. In the past, she was so innocent that everyone deceived her. All the problems that she had been through before would always serve as a reminder and a valuable lesson for Anya.
"Come on, eat with me. Don't be sad anymore," Anya took her mother's hand and invited her to her house to have lunch together.
…
That night, Agnes took the initiative to ask Indah for the keys to the apartment.
"Auntie, you said you had an apartment close to my dance school. I want to move there so that I can work more effectively."
Indah looked at her suspiciously, "Agnes, do you want to get out of the house?"
"I don't feel good about bothering you and uncle. Thank you for accepting me into this house. Even though I don't live here anymore, I'll come and visit often," Agnes said politely.
'Don't come back again. Just go!' Indah yelled inside her heart, but her face still showed a gentle smile.
Then she held Agnes' hand gently and said, "Agnes, we are all family. When you want to come later, tell me, I'll make delicious food for you."
Agnes smiled. "Auntie, can I borrow Keara's car? It's hard for me to live outside without a vehicle," she said unknowingly. She has borrowed Indah's apartment and now she wants to borrow Keara's car.
Indah was surprised to hear that. But she really wanted Agnes to leave immediately so she gave it up right away. "Just take it. But the key is in your uncle," she said.
Agnes nodded. Recalling what happened earlier, Agnes said, "Auntie... About Anya's kidnapping that happened last month…. It really has nothing to do with me."

"Agnes, how can you say that? I did not suspect you at all," Indah pretended to be surprised. "Don't think about it. No one blames you. You were also injured in that incident."
"Auntie, do you really believe me?" Agnes' eyes turned red.
"Even though we haven't lived together that long, I can tell that you are a good girl. I bet you will never hurt anyone. Your uncle also trusted you and put you in the company. You can't disappoint him," Indah patted the back of Agnes' hand and comforted her.
Hearing this, tears rolled down Agnes' cheeks, "Thank you, Auntie. May I hug you?"
Can Indah refuse? Of course she can't…
Indah really wanted to refuse, but she remembered her daughter's suggestion.
She had to pretend she didn't hate her!
She felt very uncomfortable, but she pretended to hug her happily. Indah hugged Agnes and patted her on the back. "You stupid, we are family. Me and your uncle are your parents. You can tell me anything."
Agnes felt her throat tighten. "It's late. I'll pack up my stuff and move out tomorrow."
Indah asked her maid to get the apartment's key. "This is my key. I'll have someone clean the apartment for you tomorrow. Today's young people love technology, don't they? Do you want to use a fingerprint lock and facial recognition system?"
Agnes was surprised and immediately waved her hand. "No need. I don't like it. I prefer to use keys."
Indah smiled and gave the key to Agnes. "You are the same as me. I don't really understand technology either."
After Agnes went upstairs, Indah sat on the sofa and looked at the girl's back as she went quickly.
When she said she wanted to change the fingerprint lock and use the facial recognition system for Agnes, Agnes immediately looked panicked. Why?
Is there something wrong with Agnes' fingerprint? Or is there something wrong with her face?
Indah shook her head. Nonetheless, Agnes will be leaving tomorrow. At least, she wouldn't appear in front of her anymore.
It made Indah feel better.
…
Anya found out that Agnes was leaving her mother's house when she had breakfast the next morning.
Last night, she was too emotional to say that the house was hers and Aiden's so she had the right to choose who could live there.
Maybe after the call, Galih said something to Agnes so that she decided to leave the house.
The news reached Nico and Nadine.
They both felt so happy. As long as Agnes stayed in the residential area, Anya refused to come to them for breakfast and dinner together just because she wanted to avoid Agnes.
Anya didn't want Agnes to see a lot of people eating at her house and came along.
Tara loved Hana's cooking so much that she drooled at the thought, but Anya insisted on refusing them. She doesn't want Agnes at her house.
This was all because Agnes suddenly came uninvited when Anya was having dinner at her mother's house.
In the morning, Anya's cell phone kept ringing.
Tara: "Auntie, today is a nice day. We should have dinner together and pour some wine!"
Anya: "If you want to eat and drink wine, bring the food and wine!"
Nico: "Auntie, as a person in a higher position, you should have invited us to eat. Does uncle know that you are this bad?"

Title needed a change. So a full honest update to you all who are reading and following this story. I'm putting this story on a Hiatus not only because of I'm trying to improve my spelling and grammer (which is slow going) but also due to other reasons listed down below. 1) The story is getting a full re-write as these last months have given me time to see what I have already writen and what else I have planned is not gonna work no matter how much I've tried with what I call 'test chapters' to see how what works or not. 2) I don't really have the time to write, mainly thanks to life deciding to throw a bunch of stuff and leaving me exhausted both mentally and physically. And what little free time I have is barely enough for me to do anything that other than sleep or play a game for maybe 15 min. 3) I have a job and bills to pay. Some of which are overdue. It also dose not help that thanks to the new inflations in prices, I've been struggling to get things in order. So now you all know. Once things have calmed down and gotten somewhat in order again, I'll be posting the new first chapter as soon as I can along with a new summary for the story. Until then, I hope you all have a nice day and enjoy all the other stories you can find around this wonderful site.
