Chapter 134 - The Contest (1/2)

Aiden saw Nico staring at him, begging for his help to explain everything.

However, Aiden instead said, ”I will not discriminate against your preferences. It's up to you to like a man or a woman. But when bringing your boyfriend back home, be careful not to be seen by the family. If this news reached your mother's ear, I am afraid that your mother will not be able to accept it.” Aiden said sincerely.

”Yes. Be careful. At least think about your mother.” Anya said.

Nico really wanted to cry to hear that. Why did he naively hope that his uncle would help him?

Even if he explained, Anya would not believe him. It was better if he kept quiet and accepted the fact that he liked men. He wouldn't be able to explain it even if he was foaming at the mouth.

And to make matters worse, his aunt and Tara were now close friends! If Anya told this to Tara, his plan would fail!

”Auntie, I just haven't found the right woman. Lately, I feel like I'm getting closer to Tara. Please help me. Don't tell her this!”

Nico really wanted to deny it, but Aiden didn't want Anya to find out that the man he brought in his house at that time was Raka.

Raka's name had become taboo in this house and could not be mentioned at all.

”I like Tara. She is a simple and honest woman. Everything she felt was clearly painted on her face. Meanwhile, I know that you like men and are only using them as an excuse to run away from matchmaking. If I help you, wouldn't that be the same as hurting Tara?” Anya said, frowning. She didn't want to betray her new friend.

”Auntie, the friendship between me and my friend is not as dirty as you think. Would you believe me if I said that I still like women?” Nico asked helplessly.

Anya shook her head and looked at Aiden, ”Aiden, do you believe Nico?”

”I don't believe it either!” Aiden replied on purpose.

”Why don't you believe me? Do I have to get married and have children so you can believe in me?” Nico asked irritably.

Aiden just smiled at Nico, looking satisfied when he frustrated his nephew.

Nico snorted angrily, ”Uncle, anyway I don't want to marry Natali or Raisa. If you guys don't want to help me get close to Tara, then at least don't bother me. I'll do it myself.”

”Are you serious about Tara?” Anya asked.

”I feel comfortable with her. I even stole snow lotus flowers for you so I could be with her.” Nico said excitedly.

”Speaking of flowers, I asked for your help to find an expert but you couldn't get it. You're not like Harris who can take care of everything easily!” Anya said irritably.

Aiden immediately entered good husband mode and admonished Nico for his wife, ”Nico, can't you finish such a small task?”

Nico just frowned, ”Uncle, aunt asked for a professional expert with a low salary. Where can I find someone like that?”

”Harris already got it for me. You always say you can't even though you haven't tried it. Can you help me a little so that your uncle doesn't work too hard? He also needs rest!” Anya scolded him with a serious face.

Nico's eyes widened, but he saw the devil behind Anya, who supported his aunt for whatever reason. He could only be silent without responding.

”Uncle, I was wrong. Next time auntie needs help I'll go through water and fire to help her!” Nico said, exaggerating.

Anya immediately clapped and said happily, ”Is it true? What a coincidence! I need your help right now!”

Nico looked at Aiden. His eyes seemed to accuse Aiden, 'Uncle, you know auntie deliberately set me up like this because she needed my help. Why don't you care about me?'

Aiden just replied with a cold gaze. His gaze said, 'As long as your aunt is happy, I'll let you do anything. If she wants the moon, you must go to get it!'
