Chapter 43:Compassionate (2/2)
Aiden just stared at Deny coldly, ”Anya is my lover. It is fitting for her to stay with me.”
Deny's eyes turned to Anya and saw his daughter in Aiden's arms. Aiden looked after her and protectively shielded her. He didn't need to guess what the relationship between the two of them was. With just one look, everyone including him would already know.
He knew that Aiden's feelings for Anya were not just love for monkeys.
”Aiden, I realized that I didn't really pay attention to Anya just yet. Her mother is such a tough person that after we divorced, I didn't get permission to contact Anya. As her father I'm deeply saddened. No parents wanted to be separated from their children.” Deny said.
Seeing the relationship between Aiden and Anya, he realized that he could use his fatherhood to benefit. He must assert that Anya was part of the Tedjasukmana family.
”I really care about my daughter. Right now, her mother is sick. If I don't care for and take care of her, who else can do it?” Deny pitifully said, impersonating the image of a father who really loved his daughter.
Indeed, the fruit did not fall far from the tree. Deny and Natali were indeed father and daughter alike. Their fakes, their pretense, their acting…how wonderful!
Aiden just snorted at Deny's thoughtful words, ”You better educate your other daughter. You never even fulfilled your duty as a father before, what right do you have to interfere in Anya's life now? Anya is an adult and can make her own choices. Get out of this house, Mr. Deny!”
Hearing Aiden's words, Deny felt very angry. He felt his pride as a father had been trampled. Anya was his daughter. What right did Aiden have to rule his daughter's life?
”Anya, at least if you want to live with Aiden, you have to marry him!” At this time, Deny's forehead was already sweating profusely from holding the pain in his hand. The pain was so intense that it made his face even paler.
Aiden's eyes were on Deny, looking down on him, ”You want to take her home just to use her as a tool to earn more money. Anya is really unlucky to have a father like you!”
”No! Dad really cares about you, Anya! Father never used you!” Deny tried to explain as sincerely as possible. He wanted to make Anya melt and believe in him. But Aiden was like a great wall blocking his relationship with his daughter.
Aiden gritted his teeth, looking like he couldn't wait anymore to face this selfless man, ”Hurry up and get rid of him!” Aiden shouted to his guards.
”Anya… If you don't want to come home with me today, don't cry and come to me one day. I won't accept you even if you beg!” Deny said one last time as he angrily stared at Anya. After that, he turned around and left. He did not want to be forcibly dragged from this house by Aiden's guards. His pride was too high for that.
After Deny left the house, Aiden's face calmed down a little. But the resentment he felt was still radiating, making the atmosphere in the room still tense.
Hana immediately approached Anya, trying to calm her down, ”Anya, are you okay?” Anya could only nod. Her face looked a little pale because of the fear he felt.
”He's lucky Master still forgives him today. If Master didn't have mercy on him, he wouldn't only have his hand broken!” Hana kept nagging. She was extremely baffled by the scene. How could there be a father like Deny in this world?
Anya was stunned for a moment to hear Hana's words. Aiden forgave her father so he only came home with a broken arm. All because Aiden was still merciful?
If Aiden were not merciful, what would happen to her father and Natali?
