Chapter 29:Sound asleep (2/2)

Harris rolled his eyes as he remembered Deny's previous attitude. The man was silent when he saw his daughter being bullied. However, when he saw Aiden's arrival, Deny seemed to be happily wagging his tail.

”Her father didn't even defend her. Her father was just trying to curry favor with Mr. Aiden.” Harris replied.

”What kind of father would allow his two daughters to fight like that and let one of them be publicly humiliated?” Hana couldn't believe what she heard. She kept grumbling so it made Harris's ears feel hot.

Harris could only sigh when he heard his mother's scolding, ”I have no idea. Their relationship is very complicated. They are not like family in general.”

”Then what happened?” Hana asked again.

”Mr. Aiden has already replied to Natali, but he hasn't done anything to Deny because that man is madam's real father. And it seems that Madame loves her father very much, even though her father treats her unfairly.” Harris replied quickly.

After that, he looked at the watch wrapped around his wrist and said, ”Mother, I really have to go. Mr. Aiden is waiting for me.” After saying that, he immediately rushed to Aiden's study.

Anya woke up feeling uncomfortable. She straightened up and sat on the bed, trying to stretch her entire body which felt stiff. After that, she looked out of the window and realized that the sun had set and the sky was dark.

'How long have I been asleep?'

She turned when she heard a knock on his door, ”Yes?”

”Madame, are you awake? It's time for dinner. Mr. Aiden is waiting for you at the dining table.” Said one of the maids.

Hearing the servant's words, Anya glanced at the clock above the nightstand, next to her bed.

The clock showed that it was half past eight.

'Aiden was late for dinner because he was waiting for me.' Anya thought to herself.

”I'll come down soon.” She answered.

She hurriedly changed her wrinkled household clothes. She did not forget to smooth her messy hair a little and rushed down.

While descending the stairs, her brain was spinning rapidly. She would meet Aiden again at the dinner table.

'Is that man still mad at me? Should I apologize?'

'How can I make Aiden not angry with me anymore?'
