Chapter 176 - Home (2/2)

Aiden waited for Anya to finish changing clothes. After that, he took Anya into his office and walked to the sofa area. He did not take his hands off Anya, afraid that his wife would suddenly feel dizzy again. He didn't want Anya to pass out.

On the sofa's table, delicious foods were neatly arranged. Anya could see that it was the dish Hana usually made. This dish came from her home.

”Homemade food!” Anya's eyes sparkled when she saw the food in front of her. She clapped a little showing that she was really happy to see it.

It was not the luxury food of a five-star hotel. Nor was it the current food of the popular cafes. It was just food from home, but it was enough to make Anya very happy.

Aiden's heart felt warm to hear the word 'home' from Anya's mouth. After all this time, she finally considered Aiden's house as her home. Finally, Anya also felt that she owned the house.

Aiden knew that Anya had always been careful in his house. She did not dare to touch things carelessly, she did not dare to do anything carelessly, because Anya felt she was just staying in that house. It felt like this was the first time for Aiden to hear Anya calling their house her house too.

For Aiden, 'home' was a very expensive word.

He did have a large family. Atmajaya family. Who wouldn't know their family? The family was very rich and controlled this city.

However, their family only looked beautiful on the surface. They had holes inside, a whole lot of them to mend and fix.

His father, Bima Atmajaya, was a womanizer. Although he really admired Imel, he also had many other mistresses.

When Aiden was very young, the news in the newspapers was filled with news about the woman Bima was dating. He always moved from woman to woman. From models, businesswoman, lawyers, doctors, artists, waiters, babysitters, to even call girls. As long as they were women and had a pretty face, Bima would like them, no matter what their background.

Aiden's mother tried hard to give birth and care for Aiden alone. She was afraid that the Bima scandal would affect her son's development so she sent Aiden abroad since she was young. After that, she distanced herself from Bima and did not care about the man anymore.

Unfortunately, it also made her distant from Aiden.

The same was done with Nico. Ardan, Aiden's brother, did not want Nico to become an irresponsible man like Bima so they also sent Nico abroad. Fortunately, Nico's father and mother were not irresponsible people.

Aiden's relationship with his parents was arguably not very close. They were like two people who didn't know each other. There was no warmth between them. Even trying for a small talk was difficult.

In contrast, Aiden was very close to his sister-in-law, Ardan's wife, Maria. Whenever Maria went abroad to visit Nico, she always brought Aiden a gift.

Even though Maria was just his sister-in-law who was not related by blood, she always treated Nico and Aiden with the same attitude. She considered Aiden as her own son.

Even Nico often protested because his mother treated his uncle better than him.

The love of a mother that Aiden never got since he was little, he got from the figures of Maria and Hana.

Aiden really missed his own house. A place that he could make as a refuge, a place to return to. But he didn't have the confidence to build the house. In his life, he never knew what it was like to have a home to come home to.

Until Anya appeared.

The woman was like the sunflower in the morning, making the garden brighter with its yellow petals. Like a shining little sun. Even though the size was very small, the rays were still warm.

When he saw Anya for the first time, Aiden immediately recognized his house...
