Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 967

"Anya, if you don't have time to prepare, tell Sabrina to have an abortion first. The engagement party is very important. Very important!" Irena said when she called Anya.
The news of Sabrina's pregnancy was not happy news for everyone. Irena opposes the Atmajaya Family's plan to cancel the engagement party, which was very important to her.
Anya tried to restrain herself from cursing. "The signal here is very bad. What did you say? I can't hear clearly. Hello, hello…" after that, she turned off her phone.
"Look what I said. Irena is an ignorant person. We should not humble ourselves and fulfill her previous request. Now she wants to kill your future grandchild," said Aiden angrily.
Anya also felt dizzy. "I'll call Arka and ask about the situation."
"Tell him. If Sabrina aborts the child in her womb to hold an engagement party, never set foot in the Atmajaya Family's house. In our family's eyes, life is more important than anything. In this matter, we cannot compromise. What is a party compared to an innocent life?" Aiden left after saying that angrily. After that, he entered his study.
As soon as Aiden left, her phone received another incoming call from Irena, but Anya didn't answer. She used the landline to call her son.
"Arka, Sabrina's grandmother insists she doesn't want to cancel the engagement party. Otherwise, she will tell Sabrina to abort the pregnancy. Do you know this?" Anya asked over the phone.
"I never heard of it," Arka was also surprised. "Sabrina is here now. Do you want to talk to her?"
Sabrina was confused. "Auntie, this is Sabrina. What is the problem?"
"The preparations for your engagement party are almost complete. But since you are pregnant, uncle and aunt suggest you cancel the engagement party and get married right away. What do you think?" Anya asked.
"Okay. I agree. Honestly, I don't want too many parties. I know they're only for people to see. Honestly, I just want to hold a small party," Anya felt much calmer when she heard Sabrina say this.

"Back then, when your aunt and I shared the same wedding date, your aunt was worried that I would steal the attention. But actually, I don't like grand weddings. Aiden and I went straight to the plantation and said it was a small wedding there. It means much more to us," Anya said with a smile.
"I've heard Brother Arka tell me about it. Even though I've never seen one, I feel like such a wedding party is very meaningful. I will tell my parents that I want to have a wedding without engagement," Sabrina said over the phone.
"Your grandmother just called me and wanted to ask you to abort the pregnancy because she wants you to be engaged before marriage. I didn't know how to answer so I pretended to lose the signal and didn't pick up the phone. You can call your grandmother first and explain to her," while Anya was talking to Sabrina on the phone, her cell phone kept ringing. Irena repeatedly called her.
Sabrina felt bad and said reluctantly, "Auntie, I'm sorry I caused trouble for you. Let me talk to grandma."
"She called me again. Please call your grandmother," Anya said before hanging up.
She took a deep breath as she thought of her still angry husband. After taking care of her child's problems, she still had to persuade the man.
At the entrance to the study on the second floor, Anya peeked in secretly and saw Aiden was calling someone.
Seeing Anya peeking through the door, Aiden called out to her and told her to come in.
Anya walked into the room smiling and Aiden greeted her with a helping hand, causing Anya to place her small hand in her husband's palm.
Aiden immediately pulled her into his arms and allowed Anya to sit on his lap. Anya sat quietly and waited patiently for Aiden to finish the call.
Not long after, Aiden ended the call.
His big hands wrapped around Anya's waist and then he kissed her cheek. "Do you know that you are wrong?"

"I know. I know we don't always have to please other people, especially those who don't know themselves. This time, I won't compromise and neither will Sabrina. She said she would talk to her grandmother," said Anya with a smile.
Aiden nodded. "Later, Della will call you to discuss marriage. You don't have to worry about anything. Just leave it to Raisa."
"Is it okay to leave it to Raisa? Don't forget, Raisa also comes from the Mahendra Family. Doing this is tantamount to going against her mother," Anya said worriedly.
Aiden laughed at that. "Only Raisa can persuade Irena and she is the daughter-in-law of the Atmajaya Family. Sabrina is currently pregnant with a child from the Atmajaya Family. How could Raisa let the child get into trouble? Just let her take care of it."
"What if…"
"Nothing will happen. I will tell father and sister Maria about Sabrina's pregnancy. Leave the wedding preparations to Raisa. Father and sister Maria will definitely keep an eye on Raisa and not let her mess up," said Aiden.
Anya hugged her husband's neck. "You spoil me too much. Is it okay?"
"Of course. I don't want you to be bothered by unimportant matters like this. When you married me, I promised to let you be yourself and let you do whatever you want," Aiden said softly.
Hearing this, Anya immediately kissed Aiden's lips gently. "Aiden, marrying you was the best decision of my life."
"I made the best choice for you. I'm the one who guides you to make the right decision and walk the right path," Aiden said seriously.
"Right. You are the greatest. My husband is the best in this world. I love you so much," Anya hugged him and after that, they kissed for a long time.
The fire they had felt since young never went out. Although their age continues to number, their love will never run out.
…
At the Mahendra Family's house, Raka is fighting with Irena because of her mother's unreasonable decision.
Seeing Raka angry, Della tried to persuade him. "Your mother is an old-fashioned person. She must have felt that something was missing if Sabrina got married without getting engaged first. At first, I also thought about getting engaged first so they would have time to get to know each other. But now Sabrina is pregnant and her relationship with Arka is very good. I don't think there's anything wrong with getting married right away."
"But did you hear what mother said? For the sake of the engagement party, she demanded Sabrina to abort the pregnancy. She also said it doesn't matter if she loses this child because she is still young and can get pregnant again after marriage. This is Sabrina and Arka's first child. If this baby is aborted, do you think the Atmajaya Family still wants to hold an engagement? I wouldn't be surprised if the marriage will be immediately cancelled," Raka had the same opinion as Aiden.
To him, the engagement party was not something that could be compared to a life.
How could he give up his future grandchild's life for an engagement party that would only last a day?
A woman who aborts her pregnancy for such a ridiculous reason does not deserve to be forgiven.
"Just because of that child alone, this marriage can be destroyed?" Della felt a little displeased when she heard Raka's words.
Raka turned and looked at his wife with a cold gaze. "So you think it's okay if Sabrina aborts the pregnancy?"
"I didn't say it like that. I have lost my child once, and I know the pain very well. I know it is not easy to give birth safely. But if there are other reasons that make Sabrina have to abort her pregnancy, does the Atmajaya Family no longer want her?" Della said.

Cosmic Plague
In this world, everyone is cursed with a single fate: Become the most powerful. But those who do become powerful, they hate it. Power is misery and death is the solace. လလလ Nazar, a weapon of mass destruction created by the ancient God of Destruction revolted against his creator a long time ago. While he did defeat his creator, the power he was given is still within him. He is cursed with infinite power, standing at the top of the celestial hierarchy. He has more power and wealth than he needs. But even then, he craves one thing; death. He wants to die. Power is misery and death is the solace, but he cannot achieve his only goal. He cannot die. Perhaps that will change when one day, an ancient cosmic Goddess rises from her grave? Perhaps she will finally kill him? Or will she fall short before his awesome yet terrible power?

Naturally, it features very overpowered characters with a lot of high stakes battles roaming across the cosmos. Warning: Swearing, some suggestive sexual gestures/words, gore. Feedback is highly welcomed. (The story was originally named, God's Return, but I wanted to change it.)

After the End: Serenity
We all want to believe we are heroes of our own story - unless we want to be the villain, of course. At the end of everything, the Final Reaper decided he hadn’t been a hero. Driven by a desire to right the wrongs he was subjected to, he killed everyone who wronged him or his people - which turned out to be everyone that wasn’t killed by someone else first. He'd won - but it was a hollow victory. Eventually, Order’s Voice found a way out. If the only existing being would agree to give up most of his power, the Voice could reset the multiverse to an earlier time with a few minor changes. Of course, the Voice couldn't ask it that way. It could only ask if the Final Reaper was willing to start over from when Earth was first brought into Order. It was an easy decision, and yet it wasn’t. Was he willing to go through eons of pain again to not be alone? Yes. In a heartbeat. Not that his heart beat anymore. Now it would. Perhaps he could even be a hero, this time. When he landed in his old body - more or less - on Earth, the Final Reaper once again became Thomas. He was both and neither. He needed a new name for a new life. Serenity. ------------------------------------------ While this is technically a System Apocalypse story, it's a System Apocalypse that is designed to have a large percentage of the population survive and prosper. There are a lot of problems that come with the appearance of the Voice, and it's entirely possible to lose. Earth has some special opportunities, but also special challenges. The first time around, Earth won the first round and lost the second. Serenity has ten years from when the Voice arrives to prevent that from happening. It will be a group effort; Serenity can't win alone - which is difficult for someone who's been alone for as long as he has. Of course, that's only his second priority. ------------------------------------------- Updates Daily A note on the nonhuman lead tag: He isn't human, and hasn't been human for a very, very long time (or maybe not long at all, depending on how you count it). He still thinks of himself as human, either way. The content warnings are mostly to give me room to write; this fiction is not intended to be edgy, but once in a while a character will swear or someone will get seriously injured. The cover image is a Chandra/Hubble composite image of VV 340 / Arp 302 / UGC 9618. While we're not going to space itself any time soon in the story, people from elsewhere are coming to Earth and Serenity will visit other planets. Plus, I like space imagery.
