Chapter 71 - Aidens Accident (1/2)
”Solve the problem with this woman as quickly as possible. Even if you don't want to marry Natali Tedjasukmana, you must not have anything to do with this woman.”
Bima's words kept ringing in Anya's ears, erasing her appetite. She just poked her food while glancing occasionally at Aiden, wondering if that man would divorce her right now.
”I won't divorce you just because of someone else's words!” Aiden didn't want any misunderstanding between them so he immediately explained. Aiden's words instantly calmed Anya's mood.
It seemed that Aiden could guess Anya's way of thinking. Prior to Bima's arrival to their house, Anya was so hungry that her stomach made a rattle. However, after the commotion caused by Bima, the woman suddenly lost her appetite and looked gloomy. She just played with her spoon and fork on the plate, stabbing her food without putting it in her mouth.
Anya looked like she wanted to ask Aiden something but decided to swallow her question back.
She didn't have the courage to ask it
After their dinner ended, Aiden and Harris went straight to the study to discuss work matters, while Anya returned to her room with a worried face.
The same thoughts continued to run through her mind. Was she really Keara's replacement? Was Aiden being nice to her because of this face? But there was no other reason why Aiden was being so nice to her other than because of her face that resembled Keara.
Even after taking a shower, Anya still couldn't sleep. Her eyes seemed completely wide open, completely unwilling to close. She laid on the bed staring at the ceiling of the room, but her brain seemed to keep spinning and wouldn't stop thinking. Finally, she took out her cell phone and wrote an anonymous post on the internet.
'I just found out that my husband's ex-lover has a face similar to mine. Am I just a substitute?'
She wanted to know the opinions of other people out there. Perhaps, what people said about the matter could calm her down. In less than five minutes, someone immediately answered.
'I think your husband still can't get over that woman. No doubt you are only her replacement!'
Seeing that answer, Anya immediately felt heartbroken! She could feel her heart breaking, seeing that other people thought the same as her. Her heart felt a little panic. She'd hoped that posting this would help her calm her mind, but instead it added to her anxiety.
As she was deep in her confusion, other people began to flock to leave answers to her post.
'A man's first love is very complicated and hard to forget. Looks like he really can't forget his former lover.'
'No one wants to be a substitute for someone else. Instead of continuing to misunderstand, you better ask your husband straight away.'
'Maybe he did it unconsciously. Maybe his actions were influenced by psychological problems so that he made you a substitute for his former lover. Psychological problems like that exist in this world.'
'You are married. You should love each other because of yourself. You are you, not someone else just because your eyes, nose and lips are similar to other women. If your husband still likes that woman, you better get a divorce!'
'An ex-lover is like a high wall that is difficult to pass and a shadow difficult to erase.'
'Why are you still asking? Isn't that obvious?'
Answer after answer began to emerge, but nothing could make her heart feel calmer. Instead, they were like thousands of arrows piercing her heart, making her chest feel tight. She didn't want to see them again!
Anya took a deep breath when she saw the answers and threw her phone on the bed then closed her eyes. It felt like her brain was going crazy!
She really wanted to run into Aiden's study and ask him who Keara was. Was she a replacement for Keara in Aiden's heart?
