Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO Chapter 976
Advertisement
"Do you know who Eka's son's fiancée is?" Nico asked.
"Should I know?" Aiden said carelessly.
"Lili, Aksa's girlfriend! I don't know how long Eka will stay in Indonesia. What if he finds out Adrian's secret?" Nico asked anxiously.
"Tell everyone. As long as you don't let Eka meet your grandfather, he will never know Adrian's true identity," said Aiden.
Only the family knows Adrian's true identity. The young ones, even Arka and Aksa who are Adrian's older brothers, don't know. Everyone thought Adrian and Adel were twins.
People in the Atmajaya Family would never talk about it. But it's hard to be sure that Bima will keep his mouth shut.
Lately, he's been constantly saying things that refer to the topic at family dinners. But since Bima has dementia, all the family members don't take his words too seriously.
But it'll be different if Eka hears it…
"I'll go home and explain to my mother," Nico said seriously. "Uncle, you asked me to investigate Lili. She is engaged to Eka's son, Mario, and she has a daughter from another man."
"It's not her son, but her sister. As for the engagement, I'll have someone check it out," Aiden said calmly.
"Okay then, I'll be going home first," Nico ended the call.
When Aiden told Anya about the news of Eka's return to Indonesia, Anya looked very panicked.
"What should we do? Should we tell Adrian?" Anya asked nervously.
"He has the right to know," Aiden replied.
"I'm afraid Adrian will be used by Eka. In the past, Eka had blackmailed our family. He didn't even buy land to give Jessica what she needed and decided to scatter her ashes into the sea. How can someone like him really love Adrian?" Anya said angrily.
"If we don't tell Adrian and let him find out from other people, or that Eka immediately appears in front of him and says that he is his grandson, what should we do then?" Aiden asked.

"Why do good people always die early, while bad people seem to live for thousands of years. Eka is very old, but he is still healthy and alive. I can rest easy when he's gone. Now that I know he's back, it's like holding a ticking time bomb," Anya couldn't calm herself down.
She has worked hard to raise Adrian for 24 years, treating him as her own son to become the extraordinary man he is.
If Eka's appearance will destroy their relationship, Anya's heart will definitely break.
That night, Aiden received information that Lili and Mario were indeed set up. Mario does have a relationship with the Mandala Family, and the parents who set them up.
Lili tries to escape the arranged marriage and builds her own business so that she can make money to support her life.
What is certain now is that Lili and Mario's engagement was only an arranged marriage and she also had no children. She tried to escape from the marriage arranged by her family. Currently, she is alone and likes Aksa.
…
Lately, Arka rarely comes home. If he had time, he would accompany Sabrina. Aksa also often goes on a date with Lili. In the end, Adrian was alone at home.
Anya went to meet him with a cup of tea.
"Adrian, don't forget to drink a lot when you stay up late. Too much work can make you sick," Anya pulled up a chair and sat down in front of Adrian's desk.
"Mother, wait for me a moment," Adrian put the earphones in his ears and said a few sentences before finally putting off his work.
Anya smiled and looked at him. "Am I bothering you now? If father was still alive, he would be very proud to see you working hard like this."
"You've never told me. I've only seen it from interviews on the internet. I think he is a very successful businessman," Adrian smiled faintly as he said it.
"Yes, he is a very successful businessman. He was also so handsome that you take after him," Anya said half-jokingly.

"I heard that Eka has returned to Indonesia," Adrian looked up and looked at Anya after saying that. "Did you come to see me today to talk about it?"
"Aiden and I felt you had the right to know so I came to tell you. If you want to see him, we won't stop you." Although Anya really felt reluctant, she finally decided to listen to Aiden's advice.
"This family alone is enough for me," said Adrian.
"Adrian, you never asked about your mother's grave and you never wanted to visit her. Do you want to know?" Anya asked.
"Humans don't get to choose what kind of family they're born into, but I still respect her for giving birth to me. Now I'm very happy because I have a family who loves me very much. As for Eka, a man I've never met before, I know he doesn't love my mother. How could he love me then? That's why I don't intend to meet him. I just want to be your son for the rest of my life," Adrian held Anya's hand. "Mother, if you know where my mother's grave is, can you tell me that there is someone who is always taking care of it, right?"
"Jessica didn't even have a grave. Eka asked for money from me and he took all the money for himself. Before he left, he didn't take Jessica's ashes and scattered them somewhere. If you want to go to that place, I'll ask your father. He must have known where Eka had scattered Jessica's ashes. At that time, I had just given birth so I didn't know where it was," said Anya.
Adrian did not expect that his mother's life would be so sad. After knowing what happened to his mother, he increasingly felt unwilling to meet Eka,
"I don't want to comment on what kind of people Jessica was nor Eka is. No matter how bad she was, Jessica was your mother and gave her life to you. I am so grateful that she gave birth to you in this world. I just hope you live happily ever after."
Anya tapped Adrian's shoulder. "You are a smart boy. You must understand what I mean by that. Actually, deep down in my heart, I don't want you to have anything to do with anyone from the Hermawan Family."
"The love and family I got in this life came from you. This warm home also comes from you, mom. In my heart, only you are my family. Plus, the blood that flows in our bodies is the same. No one is closer than us," Adrian smiled and opened his arms to hug Anya.
Anya laughed. "Right, we are the closest family. Alright, I won't interrupt your work anymore. When you're done, quickly rest."
When Anya entered the room, her mood was heavy because of the news of Eka's arrival to Indonesia. But after she left, her heart was relieved because she knew what was on Adrian's mind.
As long as Adrian lives with them and lives happily, Anya doesn't have to be afraid that Eka will snatch him and take him away.
Eka is a cold-hearted man and is cruel even to his own daughter. Such a person would have no feelings for his own grandson.
Who knew that Anya's worries would still happen.
After learning that his son's fiancée was taken by Aksa, Eka immediately went to the Atmajaya Family's house to meet Bima.
It so happened that Maria was out and the maid did not stop her that day. When Bima heard someone was coming, he immediately invited him in.
"Madam, is Mister Aiden at home? Let him come here quickly. Mrs. Maria was not at home when Mr. Eka came and Mr. Bima let him in," the maid said anxiously from the phone.
