Chapter 79 - Restored (1/2)

Harris walked into Aiden's office while trying to hide his smile. When Aiden glared at him, Harris immediately shook his head.

”I don't laugh at you, sir!” He said frantically.

But Aiden paid no heed to his panic. He was more curious about other things, ”What was Anya talking about with that man?” Aiden asked unexpectedly.

It turned out that Aiden's gaze was not directed at him. Aiden wasn't angry because he knew that Harris laughed at him. Harris felt a little embarrassed by his unreasonable panic. It was unusual for him to make mistakes like this.

He hurried back to his professional posture, ”Madame and Mr. Raka were in a closed room. No one can hear what they are talking about.”

”The door is not closed.” Aiden interrupted.

Harris pondered for a moment, did not expect this situation. Anya did not close the door to avoid Aiden's suspicion. Why didn't Harris think about this? They might be in separate rooms, but not completely together as Anya left the door to the room wide open to avoid misunderstanding.

”I'll find out soon, sir.” Said Harris. He immediately turned around and left the room.

As soon as Harris left, Nico suddenly entered Aiden's study, ”Uncle, I heard you changed your flight schedule today. How about you accompany me tonight to meet a client. Tonight, I'll have dinner and discuss business with…”

Aiden coldly interrupted Nico, before he even said who he would be meeting with, ”I didn't change my flight schedule to accompany you.”

”Harris said there is something urgent that must be done uncle. What else is more important than meeting our clients?” Nico asked in amazement. His uncle was known for his workaholism. What other thing would his uncle want to do besides work?

”I want to have dinner with your aunt.” Aiden said casually.

”Huh?” Nico was sure his ears had heard wrong. Had his ears been damaged? Or did he have a brain injury? There was no way the 'urgent thing' that his uncle wanted to do was having dinner with his aunt.

”Uncle, why are you acting like this? Why are you being tricked by women so easily?” Said Nico. He did not want his uncle to go out to eat with his aunt, while he had to take care of work alone. He also wanted to date!

”How about you being trapped by your own friend so easily?” Aiden replied coldly. It seemed that he still had a grudge because Nico brought Raka to his house.

Nico's heart skipped a beat when he heard his uncle's words. He thought his uncle had forgiven him because of that problem. But it seemed that his Uncle's anger couldn't be erased with just an apology.

He immediately tried to explain, ”Uncle, I really didn't mean it. I don't know if Raka has a past with aunt.”

”Ah!” Aiden's gaze was scornful, ”Then, what did that man say to you?”

Nico's heart was like a drum that was continuously beating hard. If his heart was beating so fast like this, he might explode after a while. Raka was his best friend and Aiden was his uncle. It was better for him to hide a few things from his uncle so that there was no fight between the two people who were close to him.

He thought for a moment and said, ”Raka is just worried that you are not being sincere and forcing aunt to marry you. I told Raka that you two are married and advised him not to interfere with your relationship.”

”Oh, yeah?” One of Aiden's eyebrows rose, ”Then, how come your best friend came to your aunt's workplace so early in the morning?” Aiden's face looked really creepy like a tiger ready to pounce on its prey. Unfortunately, this time the prey was none other than Nico.

Nico's face turned pale. He almost choked on his own saliva when he heard that his friend was returning to see his aunt, ”Uncle, there seems to be a misunderstanding.”

”Is that what you think?” Aiden replied ambiguously.

Nico couldn't answer. If his uncle said that Raka went to meet Anya, then it must have really happened.

Raka came to Anya at work.
