Chapter 126 - Back (2/2)

Anya was so moved that she was speechless. She silently put an eye mask on Aiden, but she couldn't control her feelings. Warm tears dripped from her eyes, accidentally falling onto Aiden's forehead.

Aiden stretched out his hand and Anya welcomed him, ”Are you crying again?” He asked.

”Aiden, why are you so nice to me?” Anya's throat felt tight when she said that.

”Because I am your husband.” Aiden held Anya's small hand gently and pulled Anya's body.

Anya lay on the sofa as well, resting her head on Aiden's chest. She could hear a steady and strong heartbeat. The woman felt warm and safe there. Subconsciously, her hand gripped Aiden's hand tighter.

They hugged each other and laid on the sofa for a few moments. Anya listened to Aiden's heartbeat, while Aiden smelled the scent of Anya's hair. A feeling of happiness and calm crept into their hearts.

Peace… That's how they felt when they embraced each other's bodies.

Time passed quickly. They unknowingly spent time lying down until lunch time arrived. Hana finally decided to knock on their bedroom door, saying that lunch was ready.

At the dining table, Anya continued to stare at Aiden.

”What's wrong?” Aiden asked.

Anya bit her lip anxiously and asked carefully, ”After lunch, you will rest. Can I return to the Rose Scent while you are resting?”

”I will replace the name Rose Scent with yours. You will be the owner as well as the head of the parfumeur. You can work whenever you want.” Aiden said.

”Did you really buy Rose Scent? Is Mrs. Esther willing to sell it to you?” Anya asked with her mouth agape. She didn't think Aiden would actually buy Rose Scent. And even more unexpectedly, she didn't think Esther would just hand over her shop.

”Esther let that manager slander you. If she won't sell me the Rose Scent, I intend to get her out of the mall. Have I told you that the mall belongs to Atmajaya Group?” Aiden said casually while eating his lunch as if he was talking about a small matter.

Anya knew that she was marrying a very rich man, but she did not think that the mall she was currently working in also belonged to the Atmajaya Family.

Knowing how Aiden was, Anya was sure that Aiden was not just threatening her. He's gonna literally get the Rose Scent out of the mall. Or even more extreme, he could drive Esther out of this city, making her unable to open a single shop in here anymore.

”What did Mrs. Esther say?” Asked Anya carefully.

”I do not know. Harris spoke to her. After eating, you can go back to the shop. The event organized by this mall is your first event. So.. give it your best.” Aiden said with a faint smile. He didn't seem to care at all when they discussed Esther. But when discussing the first event to be run by Anya, Aiden seemed to care more.

”I will try my best. I will not disappoint you!” Anya said excitedly.

Aiden just nodded his head. Anya was always cheerful and positive. This made him feel Anya's joy.

…

After lunch, Aiden returned to his room to rest. Anya immediately went to Rose Scent, driven by Abdi.

When they returned to Rose Scent, the police had already left the place and the employees were back on their job. But one person was missing from there—Ben.

The manager of Rose Scent didn't come back. However, Anya who was accused as the main suspect had returned...
