Chapter 87 - Matchmaking (2/2)
”Uncle, I promise that after our client signs his work contract, I will let you come back. I'll take care of the rest!” After hearing Anya's sweet last words and seeing her aunt wave, Nico knew he was bound to get into big trouble. It was as if his uncle was in his aunt's grip. Whatever Anya wanted, Aiden would immediately do it without thinking twice.
Aiden was already captivated by Anya's beauty so he didn't care about important work like the signing of this contract.
Without waiting for Aiden's answer, Nico immediately pressed the elevator button. He didn't let go of Aiden's hand until the elevator door closed.
”Uncle, I know why you like her so much.” Nico wiped the cold sweat that had started rolling down his forehead. He almost had to face the client alone.
Aiden asked seriously, ”Are all the documents complete? I have to go immediately to have dinner with Anya.”
”People say, even the devil will be defeated in the end...” Nico muttered. He was talking about his uncle. His cold and cruel uncle, his uncle who was fierce and stern, was already intoxicated because of a tiny woman waiting for him in his office.
Aiden just stared at Nico sharply after hearing his nephew's words.
”What I said is true! Uncle has fallen into your aunt's hands.” Nico shifted away from Aiden. He pressed his body against the wall of the elevator, trying to keep the distance as far as possible from this one demon.
”You thought I wouldn't mind when you took Raisa away?” Said Aiden with a snort. Maybe he wouldn't talk about it in front of Anya, but that didn't mean he would just forget about it.
”Uncle, why don't you just forget about it? After all, aunt also doesn't mind.” Said Nico with a laugh. He walked following Aiden out of the elevator.
”You really care about Raisa. Are you in love with her?” Aiden asked.
Nico almost choked on his own saliva at the question, ”Uncle, don't scare me.”
”After I canceled my engagement to the Tedjasukmana family, the Mahendra family said they wanted to marry off their daughter, Raisa, to our family. I am married. So, only you can be her partner. Besides, your ages are equal. I think you will fit her. I'll discuss it with your mother later…” Aiden said, considering it. He seemed to want to throw Nico into the lion's den.
”Uncle, I was wrong. Forgive me. I'll hear you next time.” Nico begged Aiden for mercy.
He didn't want to marry a fierce woman like Raisa. In his life, he had never seen such a woman. He didn't want to spend all his life nagging and scolding her.
He had known Raka since he was a child, so he knew very well what Raisa was like. He would not be able to survive if he had to marry someone like her.
”You can't run away. You are the most suitable person for Mahendra's family.” Said Aiden casually.
”I have a girlfriend.” Nico said hurriedly.
”No. You don't have a girlfriend.” Said Aiden.
”I'm going to find a girlfriend right now.” Nico didn't give up. He really didn't want to be arranged with Raisa, ”Uncle Ivan is also single. How about pairing Uncle Ivan with Raisa when he returns?”
”No.” Said Aiden firmly.
”Why not?” Nico whined. Why should he be the victim of an arranged marriage? Why should he…
Aiden's eyes narrowed slightly, ”If Ivan marries Raisa, it will be even more dangerous for us...”
”But I also don't want to marry Raisa. I like a soft and sweet woman like Auntie!” Aiden turned to Nico when he heard his answer.
Oops… It looked like Nico accidentally flipped the switch on his uncle…
