Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 867

"That's Rosa Tanuharja's daughter, right?"
"I heard she was her niece. After her sister died, she raised Tiara."
"Very beautiful. Looks like this birthday party isn't for Rosa, but for Tiara."
"Agreed, I think she is really pretty. But her family background is not good enough. After all, she is an adopted child, not a biological child."
Tiara's long hair was now styled upwards, leaving some swaying lightly. She looked so beautiful that it shocked the guests. Most of the men at the party were attracted to her.
"Is that Tiara?" Rudi opened the conversation.
"Wow, Tiara is so pretty today. Rudi, it turns out that your eyesight is very good. Before, she didn't wear any makeup and wore ordinary clothes, but we can see her true beauty now," Jenny said with a smile.
"My eyes are amazing," Rudi replied.
"Today's birthday party doesn't seem like an ordinary party," Jonathan said in a low voice.
"It seems that this is not a birthday party, but a party to find a mate for Tiara," said Rudi.
"If you're interested in her, quickly greet her in front of Uncle Surya and Aunt Rosa," Jenny urged him.
"I…" Rudi looked at Jenny. It was true that Tiara was very beautiful, but her family background couldn't compare to that of Jenny, who was supposed to be one among his options.
Tiara and Jenny are both beautiful, but their family backgrounds are like heaven and earth.
Rudi likes Tiara's appearance, but that's only normal for him as a man. Meanwhile, his fondness for Jenny is not only limited to a man's love for a woman, but also the benefits to both families on their marriage.
And Rudi has known Jenny for a long time. Of course he leans more towards Jenny.
Now, if Jenny asked him to go after Tiara, Rudi felt like he couldn't do it.
And it is clear that Surya wants to sell his adopted daughter. He did not intend to give up any chance that would earn him big profits, for the sake of his family's wealth and property.
Rudi would not want his family to be taken advantage of that way. He would not be able to gain anything from his relationship with Tiara and he had no intention of doing so.

Meanwhile, from a distance, Leo saw Surya taking Tiara with him. His eyes immediately lit up and without hesitation, he quickly greeted them. His eyes were fixed on Tiara.
When Tiara saw that gaze, there was a hint of displeasure that radiated from her furrowed brows.
"Tiara, dance with me," Leo reached out to grab Tiara's hand and lead her to the dance floor.
Tiara was really surprised, but when she looked back, she saw Surya's lips showing a satisfied smile.
There was a feeling of disappointment and coldness in her heart when she saw this. She already knew that her uncle didn't care about her at all. She was able to stay at the Tanuharja family's house only because of her aunt's presence.
Tiara wanted to repay the kindness of her uncle and aunt who had raised her up until now, but she didn't expect that her uncle would directly give her to a disgusting middle-aged man like Leo.
When Harris wrapped his arms around Nadine's waist and led her to the dance floor, he happened to see Tiara being dragged by Leo to the same place.
His brows furrowed slightly, looking angry as he saw Tiara being treated this way by the old man. He let go of Nadine's hand and stepped forward to help Tiara.
Nadine immediately understood the man's intention. But it was impossible for him to always save Tiara every time. Nadine immediately grabbed her husband's hand. "Don't be so rash."
"Leo doesn't have any good intentions toward Tiara. His wife had just passed away a few months ago, but he was already about to remarry. I can't let it happen," Harris said.
Nadine held her lower belly and pretended to be uncomfortable. "Ah… Harris, my stomach hurts."
"What's wrong with you?" Harris looked at her worriedly.
"I… I don't know. Can you help me rest there?" Nadine pointed to the seat.
Harris looked at Tiara who was in trouble on the dance floor and then looked at his wife who was beside him.
He hesitated, not knowing who he should help first.
Seeing this, Nadine said again, "Maybe I ate something wrong so my stomach hurts."

Harris was really worried. He couldn't let Tiara be in trouble but he couldn't just leave Nadine either. In the end, he led Nadine to a seat.
"Brother Harris, what's wrong with my sister?" Jenny saw Harris leading Nadine so she rushed over to her.
"She's sick. Please watch over her for a while. Tiara is having a hard time because of Leo. I'll take a look." As Harris said it, Jenny immediately kicked Rudi's leg.
Rudi scratched his head in embarrassment. "Why did you kick me?"
"You're still single right? Shouldn't it be your job to protect Tiara? If my brother-in-law leaves, what about my sister? Jonathan couldn't help either. Hurry up and help her now," Jenny said firmly.
"I'm not worried about offending Leo. But if I saved Tiara, what should I do if her family wanted to match her with me?" Rudi protested.
"Didn't you ask to be introduced to Tiara before? Are you kidding me now?" Jenny looked at him suspiciously.
"I do like her. She is beautiful, has a great body and a straightforward, unpretentious nature. But me liking her doesn't mean I want to marry her. Today, it is clear that Surya Tanuharja holds this birthday party not for his wife, but to find a mate for Tiara," Rudi said worriedly.
Harris then reacted. "Is today's party really for matchmaking?"
"Then what do you think? You already have a wife, but you intend to help her in front of everyone," Rudi's reply directly stabbed Harris right in his heart.
"Don't you want to go?" Jenny glared at Rudi.
"Rudi, only you can do it. Tiara is Jenny's best friend and the savior of Harris and his mother. Let's just say you did it for me. If the Tanuharja Family makes it difficult for you later, we will help you," Jonathan also supported Rudi to save Tiara.
Despite his reluctance, Rudi knew that no one else could save Tiara from a difficult situation like now. Some other guys will definitely think twice, worried about offending Leo. But that's not what Rudi is worried about.
"Ugh, if anything happens, you have to help me then!" He said.
"Why don't you leave immediately!" Jenny raised her leg to kick Rudi again, but Jonathan immediately hugged her.
"Jenny, you are already getting married. Can't you be a little more gentle? Jonathan, take good care of your future wife. She's too fierce!" After saying that, Rudi walked towards the dance floor with a smile on his face.
Tiara was desperate. She tried to ask Harris for help with her gaze, but Harris went with Nadine instead.
She knew that there was no way Harris would save her. Especially when Nadine was on the same dance floor as them. What would Nadine think if it really happened?
Besides, this is a matter for the Tanuharja Family. This is absolutely none of Harris's business and it's not his responsibility to save her.
But somehow, Tiara felt disappointed.
Her uncle was really cruel and her aunt ignored her.
Leo's big hands hugged her waist tightly and his face flashed a disgusting smile. "Tiara, as long as you are willing to come with me, all that is mine will be yours."
Tiara became more and more angry. She lowered her voice and said while gritting her teeth. "Please respect me."
"Your family's company is in trouble and is about to go bankrupt. I could have bought stock and become the biggest investor in your family-owned company to prevent that bankruptcy. don't you understand?" Leo smiled.
Tiara looked back. Her uncle who had previously been talking to several people was nowhere to be seen.
Her uncle's company was run by her uncle and cousin. Tiara had absolutely no idea what the company was like and what had happened to it.
But for the sake of the company, her family didn't have to think twice about selling her to a disgusting old man with a pot belly.
