Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 760

"Anya, do you want me to take your place to visit her on behalf of the Atmajaya Family?" Maria asked.
"Sis, this matter is still unknown. Judging from the situation, it seemed that Agnes wanted to kill me and my family, but she injured herself instead. There's no point in visiting her. My mother and I are not going. No need to care about her," Anya said calmly.
"Raisa and Nadine don't want to go either. Tara is pregnant and can't move too much. If there's anything you need, just tell me," Maria said in a soft voice.
"Thank you for your help today. Take a rest. Everything will be fine," said Anya.
"No need to thank me. We're family. Your mother seems scared. You better accompany her," Maria replied.
Anya hung up and looked at her mother who was sitting on the sofa.
Even though Indah didn't see Agnes' condition at the time, she could see that her legs were torn as she drowned in her own blood in the middle of the road.
After that, she heard from people about the possibility that Agnes wanted to kill her, Galih and Anya. Indah was very scared now.
Galih was the only member of the Pratama Family that accompanied Agnes in the hospital. Indah didn't want to go there, just like Aiden and Anya.
The entire Atmajaya Family didn't like Agnes and they also suspect that she was involved in Anya's previous kidnapping. If Anya didn't want to visit Agnes at the hospital, that meant that none of the Atmajaya Family members would go there.
Galih accompanied Agnes in the hospital for three days in a row. Later, he felt really angry and went home to fight with his wife.
Indah cried and called Anya, telling her about her fight with Galih.
At that time, Aiden was in the office and couldn't come back so Anya went to Indah's house with some bodyguards. She also asked Diana to come and help her.
When Diana arrived, Anya was comforting Indah who was crying.
"What's wrong?" Diana saw a lot of broken vases scattered on the floor. The maids were also nowhere to be seen and some of them peeked out in fear.

Galih was surprised when he saw Diana.
"Why are you here? Be careful!" Galih reminded Diana not to step on the broken vase. Then, he called one of his servants to clean the vase.
The floor of the living room was cleaned very quickly and the maids hurried away knowing that they were going to discuss something important.
Diana and Indah had a very good relationship. Anya was their daughter so Diana also wanted to know what Anya's birth mother was like. She knew that Indah was a good woman and put her daughter first in everything, just like when she protected Anya even though her hand was hurt.
At times like this, of course Diana would defend Indah.
And she had also heard all the stories about Agnes from Anya so she knew what was right and what was wrong.
"Galih, don't be angry. Sit down and have a good talk. Why do you have to make such a fuss?" said Diana.
Galih walked to the sofa and sat down. "Three days I waited in the hospital, but no one came to visit Agnes. When I got home, Indah was relaxing while watching TV. She even looks so happy!"
"Do you hear what you say? You sound like you put Agnes above your own family. I know you're tired from waiting in the hospital, hoping someone will accompany you. But what does Agnes have to do with Anya? What does she have to do with Indah?" Diana asked calmly.
"Agnes is my niece and the only daughter of my cousin. The Pratama family isn't that big. Anya only has one cousin, and that is Agnes. Even if it's just pretending, at least they can come and ask how she's doing," Galih looked at the mother and daughter who were sitting side by side on the sofa.
Anya felt her father's words were so ridiculous. Why did she have to visit Agnes?
"Father, this is so ridiculous. Even if I have to pretend like I care, there's a good time to visit her. But I don't want to do it now. I don't like it when you force me to do her a favor! For me, Agnes is a stranger I don't know. My mother's health is not good. Agnes is also injured and may be mentally unstable from the trauma. If something happened to my mother, would you want to take responsibility?" Anya was very protective of her mother.

Indah felt even more sad when she heard that. Her tears flowed harder. "Anya, your father no longer cares about me since a long time ago. How could he care about his wife and daughter anymore? The only one on his mind these days is Agnes!"
"I do not mean it. I…" Galih stopped himself. He had said many wrong things to Indah and Anya, and now he couldn't defend himself anymore.
Indah wanted to laugh when she saw Galih embarrassed in front of Diana. "For the sake of an outsider, he is even willing to destroy this family relationship."
"Agnes is not an outsider. She is…"
"She is your daughter. I know..." said Indah.
But how did Galih reply to that statement? He couldn't say anything.
"Indah Srijaya, you just want to find trouble with me!" Galih was so angry that he called his wife's name by her real name.
"Why are you angry? Anya is also your daughter. When you protected Agnes, did you ever think about Anya's feelings? If you have a clear mind, why don't you realize what's going on? Have you ever thought about why the wreath suddenly exploded?" Indah said.
Galih looked at Anya. He had guessed that all of this had something to do with Aiden, but he still had no proof.
"Agnes said that the bouquet in front of her school was Aiden's gift," said Galih calmly.
Upon hearing this, Anya felt annoyed. She really wanted to bring Aiden to his senses and punish him for getting himself involved in this matter. Anya didn't want Aiden to get his hands dirty just to teach that damn woman a lesson.
"If Aiden sent the wreath to Agnes and it had a bomb inside it, why would he give the detonator to Agnes?" Anya asked coldly.
"Maybe the detonator wasn't in Agnes' hand at the time, but someone else detonated it. Then they put it nearby after Agnes was injured," Galih replied coldly.
Aiden already knew Agnes' true identity and he couldn't accept it. Of course it made sense that he wanted to get rid of Agnes as soon as possible.
"So, father, do you want to accuse Aiden of killing Agnes without any evidence? Why does Aiden want to kill her and why should Aiden kill her?" Anya asked.
Galih could not answer it. He couldn't say the real reason because that would be tantamount to revealing Agnes' identity.
Seeing that her father couldn't answer, Anya continued. "You can't answer because Aiden has no reason to kill Agnes. But Agnes had reasons to kill us. If the detonator was in her hand at that time and the three of us were blown up in front of my school gate, who do you think would die? Weren't we all going to die? If we die, who will benefit the most?"
"Anya, don't think like that about your sister!" Galih couldn't believe Agnes would do such a thing.
"Agnes is Keara right?" Anya said with a sad smile.
Galih's eyes widened, but for a moment he immediately denied. "Not!"
Diana and Indah looked at each other. They both knew Galih and they could see the strange look in the man's eyes.
They could see that Galih looked a little nervous for a moment. Even though he managed to cover it up in seconds, Diana and Indah were sure that Anya's guess was right!
"Galih! What have you done?" Indah said, crying.
Diana shook her head resignedly. "I didn't know you could do that. You shouldn't have done this!"
