Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 974

"So you want to accompany me not to help me, but to defend her? Why do I sense a conspiracy here?" The more Anya thought about it, the more strange she felt.
If Lili is really great at developing drones, why can't she get 1 billion?
Plus, Adel was really influenced by her and Aksa also dared to lend her money. This girl has managed to win the hearts of both of them.
Anya narrowed her eyes and said cautiously, "Did she know I was coming today?"
"I've told her. She said she would invite us to eat at a restaurant near here. I want to come with you. Can we go together?" Adel took Anya's hand and pleaded.
"If she already knows that I'm here, let's meet her then," Anya felt that she had to meet this girl to find out what her true nature was.
Anya didn't get out of the car because it was quite hot today.
She just held the telescope and watched from a distance, while waiting for information about Lili.
Adrian worked very quickly and all information about Lili was sent directly to her. Even her first love and how many lovers she had are also recorded in great detail.
From the data, Lili had dated eight men, but none of them lasted more than three months.
Moreover, neither of the drone research nor the boxing gym was in her name. It seemed that the two belonged to her ex-lover and were given to her after their separation.
She also has its own vineyard and island. It is unclear whether she bought it with her own money or was given to her by her ex as well.
Her family situation is very secretive, so Adrian can't find anything at all. It is not clear whether this family is really rich or she is just a woman who usually cheats on rich men.
During lunch, Anya's cell phone rings. She's getting a call from Aiden. "Anya, where are you?"

"Aksa likes a girl and I'm going to meet her. By the way, do you know the Mandala Family?" Anya asked.
"I only know one family whose last name is Mandala. The family is quite large. They do not live in Indonesia but control almost all of the country's infrastructure. They control the market for oil, electricity, trade and also provide water. In short, this family is very, very rich, but they always appear modest," Aiden replied.
Anya was deep in thought. Soon she would have lunch with Lili, but she still didn't know her background at all.
"I'll send you a photo of the girl. You can see if that girl has anything to do with that Mandala Family," after saying that, Anya ended the call.
Adel immediately sent a photo of Lili to Anya and Anya sent it to Aiden. After seeing the photo, Aiden felt uncomfortable. But he still forced himself and asked his friends abroad to check it out.
After all, this girl was the girl his son liked. It's good to check her first.
After Lili finished her experiment, she came to Anya.
If looked from up close, Lili's face looks even more beautiful. Her skin looked a little tan from being in the sun a lot, but she didn't seem to care at all.
She is comfortable in her own skin.
"Good afternoon, Auntie. My name is Lily. Nice to meet you," Lili greeted Anya politely.
"You are so great. I rarely see girls interested in technology like drones," Anya said with a smile.
"I like it," Lili smiled back. "Auntie, there is a local specialty restaurant nearby. I heard the food is delicious there. Adel said you will come, so I asked the restaurant to prepare food. Let's go over there."
"Would you like to come with us?" Anya shifted from her seat further inside and invited Lili to get into the car.
But Lili immediately refused. "I was sweating from being in the sun too long. I must smell bad. Let me just get on my motorbike and show you the way."

The motorbike that Lili uses is not a random one, but a limited edition Harley davidson. The reason why Anya knew about the type of motorbike was because she had asked Ivan for help so that she could get the motorbike for Aksa.
The more Anya saw it, the more Anya felt the more familiar the motorcycle in front of her.
Perhaps, the motorbike was Aksa's gift for Lili.
After arriving at the restaurant, Lili went to find the owner of the restaurant. It didn't take long for a variety of dishes to be served on the table. However, Lili still hadn't appeared either.
When all the food was ready, then Lili appeared. Turns out she went to take a shower first and change her clothes.
Unlike her previous outfit which was quite tomboyish, now she is wearing a long skirt, making her look much more feminine.
"Sis, your skirt is very nice. Where did you buy it?" Adel said.
"I bought it in Milan. If you like it, we can go to Milan together during Milan Fashion Week," Lili answered with a smile.
At that moment, Anya's cell phone rang again. She glanced at the screen and saw a message from Aiden saying that Lili looked a little like the youngest daughter of the Mandala Family.
A photo is also attached to the message. Anya zoomed in on the photo and after seeing it, she understood everything.
Apparently, the Mandala family doesn't know what their youngest daughter is doing in Indonesia.
"Last night, Aksa came home and borrowed money from me. He wanted to borrow 1 billion and told me that he wanted to help a friend who was in trouble. Is that you?" Anya asked.
Lili looked surprised and immediately tried to explain. "Auntie, I can solve my own problems. I didn't think Aksa would come home to borrow money."
"The Atmajaya family is a little different from other families. Our children are taught to invest since they are young. We are a sizable family, but the kids keep their own money. Aksa has no access to it. If you need 1 billion from him, he has to borrow it from me. Today, I came to see what you did. Turns out you're developing drones. No wonder Aksa supports you," after that, Anya took out a checkbook from her bag. She wrote a check for 1 billion for Lili.
"This 1 billion, I lent it to you. I like young people who are hardworking and creative. Supporting young people to better themselves is also the goal of the Atmajaya Family," said Anya as she handed the check to Lili.
Lili immediately took out a piece of paper and wrote an agreement that she had borrowed 1 billion from Anya and would return it. "Auntie, this is really a big help. Thank you. I will definitely return your money."
"If you insist on writing an agreement, I will accept it. Aksa also likes drones. Last month, he helped his brother propose to his girlfriend and delivered flowers with his drone," said Anya.
"The drone carried such heavy stuff? Great! Why didn't Aksa tell me?" Lily asked excitedly.
"Maybe he wants to surprise you," Adel helped Anya to reply.
Anya looked at Lili. The longer she talked with the girl, the more convinced Anya was that Lili wasn't a swindler or a bad woman.
Second, her family background is quite good and on par with the Atmajaya Family.
The most important thing is, Lili is not a spoiled child even though she comes from a well-to-do family. She is full of passion to continue to grow and build her own business. An independent girl like her is what Aksa needs.
While having lunch, Anya purposely asked, "Lili, do you have a boyfriend?"
"Not yet. But there's someone I like," Lili smiled shyly.
