Chapter 98 - Formula (2/2)
Deny trembled violently when he heard Anya's words, ”What an insolent child. What good is it for you if the name of the Tedjasukmana Family is destroyed? Don't you also have the same name?”
”What's the deal with me? The wealth and success of the Tedjasukmana Family is useless to me. Then what does it have to do with me if the Tedjasukmana Family is destroyed?” Anya sneered, ”I only care about my mother's formula!”
That was all Anya cared about. So far, her father did not care about her and only her mother loved her. Of course she would defend her mother's dream rather than her father's family who cared nothing about her.
”You ...” Deny glared sharply at Anya. But it was true that he had never cared about Anya all this time, so Anya was very disappointed in him.
He tried to suppress his emotions and give advice in a fatherly tone, ”Anya, you followed Aiden and lived with him without having the same last name as him. This life of yours will not last long. Go home with dad. Go back to dad's house. Father will ask the Atmajaya Family to marry you.”
”Back to dad's house?” Anya felt ridiculous when she heard her father's invitation, ”Go back to dad's house and live in the attic again?”
”Anya, you are father's eldest daughter. How could dad let you live in the warehouse. Father has asked the servants to clean up your room. Go home and get Aiden's family to propose to our family properly. You will marry into the Atmajaya Family as the daughter of the Tedjasukmana Family. That way, no one will dare to look down on you anymore.” Deny tried to like a good father. Too bad for him, Anya knew him very well.
What came out of her father's mouth was not for Anya's good, but for the benefit of her father and his family. Her father never put his interests aside for the happiness of others. For him, wealth, power and reputation were everything. He would not care about anything else and always put his interests first.
If it weren't for Aiden, Deny would have never cared about Anya.
Anya wanted to laugh out loud, pouring out all the bitterness in her heart, ”I'm not that important to Aiden. What would you do if I returned to your house and it turned out that Aiden didn't want to propose to me?”
”Just by looking at what he did for you, we can all see how important you are to his heart. Of course he will propose to you and marry you.” Deny replied confidently.
Everyone in this city already knew that Anya was Aiden's lover, but no one knew that Anya was Deny's daughter. Everyone thought that only their last name was the same. Even some people didn't know Anya's last name and Anya often used her mother's last name to introduce herself.
Deny had the advantage of being Anya's father because he could use Anya to work with Aiden.
But unfortunately, his biggest hope wouldn't even listen to him.
Still with the formula in his hand, Anya wouldn't dare go against him!
”I don't want to return to the Tedjasukmana Family's house. I also don't want to talk about marriage. I'm happy enough now. You can tell me directly, how do you want to give up that formula?” Anya asked in a cold voice. She didn't care anymore that her father's blood was still flowing in her body. Even her father didn't even care about her. Why should she maintain her unconditional love?
”I own land, but I don't have enough capital. Persuade Aiden to invest in the Tedjasukmana Family. If you succeed, I will give this formula and give you a portion of the profits.” Deny proposed.
Anya listened to Deny's words and said, ”I can't help you. Mahendra's family was also looking for Aiden, but Aiden said that he only wanted to buy land belonging to the Tedjasukmana Family and Mahendra Family. Aiden didn't want to cooperate with you to develop the land.”
”If we sell the land, the Tedjasukmana Family will never be able to rise again. Anya, can you help dad? You're the only one dad can hope for.” Deny begged her.
It was obvious that Anya knew.
But her father never cared about her. No matter how rich the Tedjasukmana Family was, it had nothing to do with her!
The prosperity of the Tedjasukmana Family would only gain Natali's favor, who was known as the only daughter of the Tedjasukmana Family.
Meanwhile, Anya didn't mean anything. Nobody even knew that she and Natali were sisters.
”I want to see that formula. I'm not sure it's the real recipe.” Anya said. She must be careful when facing her father. The man was very cunning. She didn't want to fall into her father's tricks.
Deny showed the photo once again. This time he showed it in full, with Diana's signature and name under it. Anya could see the ingredients listed in the recipe.
Irises, bergamot orange essence, cananga flowers, orange blossoms, vanilla, lilies, orchids and various other familiar spices…
But Deny covered the percentages in the ingredients column so Anya couldn't see them!
