Chapter 274 - Have You Ever Loved Me?
"I heard you built a vanilla garden in your garden and it took a long time to grow. You invest not only money, but also time and energy. I'll allow you to maintain the vanilla garden, but you have to remove all the flowers and trees. All the losses you experience will be borne by Atmajaya Group," Bima tried to offer Anya an advantage.
"The offer sounds very good. In exchange for that garden, I will get a lush garden at the foot of the Mid Valley mountain and compensate for the loss. But I need my mother's approval. Can we discuss this matter after my mom wakes up?" Anya did not immediately refuse, but she was buying time.
In fact, she was willing to accept Bima's offer because she did not experience any loss.
The most important areas in her mother's garden were the vanilla and rose. Bima was willing to keep vanilla, which was Anya's main focus.
In addition, he was willing to give her a piece of land at the foot of the Mid Valley mountain so she could plant flowers and trees there.
The roses in the garden had a high level of survival. She was sure that the flowers would not die even if they were moved, including lilies and tulips.
For the other plants with low survival rates, she could think of a way to increase it. If she couldn't, the Atmajaya Group would compensate for the losses she suffered.
At least, according to Anya's opinion, Bima's offer was very reasonable.
"What if your mother doesn't agree?" Bima asked.
"I will try to persuade her. But I can't do it without her consent," Anya replied calmly.
"If by October your mother hasn't woken up, I hope you can think about it and agree to the offer," Bima said.
Anya nodded and agreed.
Aiden looked at Bima with an unpredictable gaze. He did not expect that his father would make concessions regarding the issue of Anya's mother's land. He even offered to help Anya find new land and maintain a vanilla garden for her.
All this time, he had never had a good opinion about his father. So he actually felt a little surprised by his father's attitude.
Aiden thought that Anya would agree to give up the land as long as her vanilla garden was maintained, but he didn't expect his father to want to make such an exception.
After getting Anya's answer, Bima nodded with satisfaction. "Go back to your room and rest. I want to talk to Aiden."
Anya stood obediently and faced Aiden. "Talk with your father first, I'll go upstairs,"
Bima immediately called one of the servants to escort Anya. "Take Aiden's wife to her room to rest,"
Keara's face immediately turned pale at that. "Aiden, are you married?"
"Hmm..." Aiden replied casually.
"Anya still hasn't graduated from college. They both registered their marriage in advance without celebrating. Currently, their marriage is still a secret and will be celebrated if the opportunity arises," Bima said.
"Dad, if you are tired, go back to your room and rest. I want to talk to Keara," Aiden was impatient and didn't want to sit down to listen to unnecessary chatter.
"Uncle, do I need to accompany you?" Keara asked.
"No need. I can do it myself," Bima got up and walked to his room, followed by several servants.
After Bima left, Keara said, "Let's talk in the park."
"Hmm..." Aiden nodded.
The night was very quiet and the sound of crickets was heard in the garden.
This was the second time Anya had visited the main house of the Atmajaya Family. The last time she came here, she didn't have time to look around the house and went upstairs.
However, she still felt excited to live in this house and occupy Aiden's room!
Anya walked into Aiden's room, saw the many trophies and certificates displayed in a glass cabinet.
Aiden was not only handsome, but also very smart. He was proficient in all fields and won many awards.
After walking around in the room, Anya went to the window that led to the garden. She saw Aiden and Keara standing there.
Since when did they move into the garden together? Weren't they together with Bima in the living room?
Anya felt uncomfortable seeing her husband with another woman, like lovers.
Suddenly, there was a knock on the door. "Madame, your changing clothes have been delivered,"
"Come in," Anya answered.
A servant opened the door, carrying a bag in her right hand and a cosmetic bag in her left.
"Mrs. Hana said that there are makeups, skincare, cleansers and masks to clean your makeup in the cosmetic bag. If something is still missing, she will deliver it again." The maid smiled and put the cosmetic bag she was carrying on the dresser.
"Does that bag contain clothes?" Anya saw that the other bag was very large, thinking that there would be more than one change of clothes there.
"Yes, Madame. There is a pair of nightgowns and two overalls. Mrs. Hana said that the colors of the two dresses match your shoes today. So, you can choose one for tomorrow." The servant delivered Hana's message to Anya.
"Okay thank you," Anya took the bag and felt her heart touched.
Hana was very kind to her and sincerely thought about her. Since her mother was sick, Anya had always taken care of herself. She rarely felt spoiled by other people like this.
Anya hurried to call Hana. "Mrs. Hana, I've received the dress. Thank you," Anya said.
Hana just smiled. "No need to thank me, Anya,"
Anya bit her lip and thought for a moment. Then, she decided to ask Hana. "Mrs. Hana, Aiden is talking to Keara in the park. Should I go there?"
"Anya, did you call me to ask this?" Hana immediately understood what Anya meant.
Anya laughed. "I can't hide anything from Mrs. Hana. When Tara came home earlier, she told me to take good care of Aiden. Now I see Aiden and Keara in the garden alone and they seem really close. I don't know what to do,"
"Anya, you are Aiden's wife, the daughter-in-law of the Atmajaya Family. It's already night, you should have told your husband to return to the room. If you feel uncomfortable, go to your husband's place and ask him to come back. Don't hold back. The woman who wants to snatch your husband is doing it openly, why should you be afraid? Hurry up and go to Aiden's place," Hana said.
"I'm going to take a shower and wash off my makeup first. If they are still talking after I finish taking shower, I'll stop them," Anya hung up the phone after thanking Hana again. Then, she walked into the bathroom carrying the change clothes.
Half an hour later, Anya came out of the bathroom. She walked to the window again and stared out at the garden.
At that time, Keara was hugging Aiden from behind.
The alarm in Anya's head seemed to ring. It's true what Hana said, she was too scared so Keara dared to grab her husband openly in front of her.
For God's sake, they were currently under one roof! How dare that woman touch her husband!
Anya didn't need to think long. Even though her hair was still wet, she ran downstairs in her pajamas and house slippers.
In the park, Keara tightly hugged Aiden's waist. "Today, Raisa asked me who I think of when I die. I think of you. You are the person I love the most, Aiden. I love you," she said with tears streaming down her face.
"Let go of me," Aiden brushed Keara's hand angrily.
"I don't want to let you go. You know well how much I love you. Why don't you care about me?" Keara leaned her head on Aiden's back. Her hands didn't want to give up and still hugged Aiden tightly.
Aiden grabbed Keara's hand forcefully and threw it aside. He turned and looked at Keara coldly. "Keara, you were engaged to Ivan, but you said you loved me. Don't you find it ironic?"
"I was with Ivan just to make you jealous. But you really don't care and now I'm stuck in an engagement that I don't want," Keara looked sadly at Aiden. "Aiden, have you ever loved me?"
