Chapter 208 - Selling The House (1/2)
In less than half an hour, Tara arrived at Aiden's house. She went straight to Anya's room, and caught her still wearing her nightgown. Her face didn't look as cheerful and bright as usual. She looked exhausted.
”Look at you! You look like you haven't slept all night.” With a deep sigh, Tara put down her medicine box and checked Anya.
Anya glared at Tara while letting the doctor check her body. But Tara didn't find the slightest wound. ”Do you feel sick somewhere?”
”My heart is sick. I want a divorce with Aiden, but he still treats me like this,” Anya said irritably.
”I wanted to take you home yesterday, but Aiden insisted on escorting you. How dare I fight him? Even if it's for your sake, I still don't dare to fight Aiden, so…” Tara didn't continue her words. ”Which one is sick? I will massage you.”
”Waist, legs, hands, head, heart. Everything hurts!” Anya said with a tired look. Without realizing it, she went back to thinking about the 'punishment' Aiden gave her last night, making her face turn red. Then, she asked Tara. ”What did I say last night?”
”You said all the men in the Atmajaya Family are jerks. You also said that Ivan likes you. If Imel didn't betray your mother, you would've been married to Ivan and didn't meet Aiden,” Tara said, repeating Anya's words yesterday.
”Geez! I said all that?” Anya couldn't believe what she heard.
”Not only that. You also said Aiden was short-tempered and difficult to deal with. You said you wanted a divorce with him, didn't want to live with him because he tricked you just for your mother's flower garden. You said he married you as a revenge to Ivan…”
While saying all that, Tara looked at Anya in awe. ”Anya, you said all those sentences to Aiden, but you are still alive today. Isn't that a miracle?”
Anya's face was completely pale like a blank sheet of paper. ”I'm so dead!”
”Don't worry too much. I know Aiden really cares about you and won't mind it,” Tara said, trying to comfort her.
”No! You don't understand.” Anya held her head and made her hair fall apart. ”Aiden must be very angry! What if he doesn't want to divorce me?”
”You still want a divorce with him?” Tara asked in disbelief. ”Aiden is not Imel's son. He hated Imel and you hated her too. You two can work together to fight Imel.”
”Who wants to cooperate with Aiden? This is my own problem with Imel. I will solve it in my own way,” Anya said.
”Anya, I don't understand your way of thinking,” Tara said as she started massaging Anya. ”You love Aiden and Aiden love you. Isn't that enough?”
Anya didn't answer as she knew Tara wouldn't understand her feelings.
Not a single person was on her side and no one understood why she was angry.
Aiden already knew her when they first met at the Imperial Hotel. But Anya couldn't remember who Aiden was. After that, Aiden offered to help with the conditions of marriage.
Aiden lured her into using his mother's garden as collateral for this contract marriage. Aiden was also in charge of the Atmajaya Group development project. The project was stopped because the owner of the park, Diana, did not want to sell the garden.
There could be no coincidence. Aiden must have planned this all.
Although Aiden was not Imel's son, he and Ivan were now in competition. They both fought over the Atmajaya Group. Why should she be involved in all this?
Anya was sure Aiden also knew about her relationship with Ivan.
Aiden knew everything. He had investigated Anya, found out all about her.
After thinking through all these possibilities, how could Anya not suspect Aiden's reason for marrying her? Apart from getting her mother's garden, Aiden also wanted to use it to fight Ivan.
Was there even a time when Aiden was sincere with what he did? Their marriage was full of hidden plans. Full of tricks. And Anya had to pay for it with her heart…
