Anya saw the innocent journalists injured. She really felt guilty and sorry for them.

Fortunately, the injuries they suffered were not too heavy because they were only hit by shards of small stones.

​​

"Everyone, I'm sorry. I didn't think something like this would happen. We have prepared meals for all of you. Please eat and rest inside," Anya said sincerely.

Indah told her subordinates to give them some money to treat their wounds. She asked them to accept the white envelopes that she gave them.

The journalists did not refuse. They were indeed injured and shocked from the incident. Maybe they could feel a little calmer when they know that their arrival there was not in vain.

Meanwhile, the police immediately checked the CCTV in front of the gates of Iris Perfume Academy.

They also asked several people about who was present at Iris Perfume Academy at the time and witnessed the explosion.

One of them said, "I saw Agnes Pratama standing in front of the wreath. One second before the explosion, she was still holding the flower."

Another person said, "I also took her picture because Agnes was standing there alone. I think the dress she was wearing was very beautiful. I didn't expect that this photo would be a different photo than I expected. Looks like her wound is quite serious. It seems…"

"I saw it too. At that time, I was confused as to why Agnes didn't take a photo with the Pratama Family. I didn't expect that there would be an explosion. I saw her legs fly into the street," someone said.

"Fortunately, the explosion wasn't that big and we were quite far away. Otherwise, we could all get hurt," some others said, looking horrified.

The police continued their investigation, but Agnes was already injured. The grand opening and ribbon cutting event at her dance school had to be cancelled. As a dancer, it would be difficult for her since she no longer had legs. Apparently, the opening of her school would not continue…

Iris Perfume Academy has already prepared a food feast for everyone who comes. Even the presence of the police investigating this incident didn't affect the celebration that took place there.

Galih followed the ambulance that took Agnes to the hospital, while the event organized by Iris Perfume Academy continued.

Tara is pregnant and she only came briefly to congratulate Anya. After that, she went straight back because the hall was too crowded and it wouldn't be good for her. Maria and Nadine came to help Anya take care of the event, so nothing in particular happened.

After the explosion, all attention was on Anya's event so no one cared about Agnes anymore. After all, they came to support Anya and her two families— the Atmajaya Family and the Pratama Family.

They also knew that Galih's niece's dance school was about to hold a grand opening on the same day. They wanted to attend it, but they didn't expect an accident like this to happen.

When they gathered at Anya's event, there were still quite a few people discussing the incident.

"Try to guess, who could Agnes offend that someone sent her a bouquet of flowers with a bomb?"

"But the detonator was found beside Agnes herself. Doesn't that mean she detonated it herself?"

"How could it be? Did she try to kill herself like that?"

"Three years ago, she was injured and almost died. Maybe she has lost her mind and took things to the extreme!"

"I don't think there's any reason for her to commit suicide."

"She is the general manager of Pratama Group and her dance school is supposed to open today."

"Can't you see? That exploding bouquet is very similar to the one in front of the Iris Perfume School!"

"Gosh! Could it be… It wasn't actually the bouquet that Agnes wanted to explode, but the bouquet that…"

"That's right! At that time, Galih, Indah and Anya were standing at the gates of Iris Perfume School. I also saw Galih call Aiden to take a photo together. Before Aiden could get to them, the explosion occurred."

"That means, Agnes wanted to kill the Pratama Family with that wreath! Does this make sense?"

"This starts to make sense! Perhaps Agnes wanted to kill all the members of the Pratama Family so that she was the only person left. Thus, she will obtain all the properties belonging to that family."

"That's very evil. Just thinking about it makes me scared."

…

The flock of the guests were seen talking and even gossiping in groups. After all, these people would never stop talking about it until they got new updates.

Anya pretends not to hear it. She wanted to ask Aiden what really happened instead.

She felt Aiden had known that there would be this explosion a long time ago.

"Anya, are you okay?" Della finally managed to escape from her future mother-in-law and came to ask about Anya's condition.

"Don't worry. I have nine lives!" Anya laughed at herself.

She didn't know how she was still alive when so many people wanted to harm her. Looks like she really has a lot of life.

"Wow, you can still laugh, huh? I heard people say that Agnes detonated the bomb by herself and the detonator was in her own hands. She wanted to kill you and your parents. She's really mean, even though your parents have helped her..." Della said angrily.

"I already know that Agnes is not a good person. Last time, she dared to come to dine with us without being invited. She is really shameless," Raisa said.

Jenny also came to Anya. "Auntie, is what people say true?"

"It's not that simple. You're very lucky because the wreath could've been mixed up," Jonathan said seriously.

Indah finally regained her composure after the explosion ended. She could think clearly and understand what people were gossiping about.

How could the police not see the conspiracy as everyone can see?

But it seems this problem is not that simple. If Agnes arranged everything, could it be that the bouquets were accidentally mixed up?

Indah then shifted her gaze towards Aiden. She saw him and Ivan standing side by side, discussing work matters. Meanwhile, Nico followed Bima to greet the guests, most of whom were acquaintances.

"Mother, don't think about it too much. Leave everything to the police. They'll find out soon enough. We didn't do it. We would never do such a cruel thing!" Anya said.

"Anya…" Indah stroked the back of Anya's hand and finally said nothing.

Likewise, Anya is also afraid that her husband will get involved in this problem. Even though Agnes deserved this, there was no point in getting Aiden's hands dirty to punish that evil woman!

Anya noticed that her mother was staring at Aiden and was worried about him. She knew what her mother was thinking. "Don't worry. Aiden always does things very carefully. Not that he necessarily did it either."

Indah nodded with a smile. "If Agnes kills herself, she can't blame anyone else."

…

In the evening, news came from the hospital that Agnes had passed a critical period.

She was so badly injured that she broke her ribs and injured her lungs. After eight hours of surgery, she was finally saved.

Her legs couldn't be reattached and her face was damaged from getting too close with the source of the explosion.

Hearing the news, Maria took the initiative to contact Anya. "Anya, do you want me to take your place to visit her on behalf of the Atmajaya Family?"
