Chapter 213 - I Hate Myself For Loving You (1/2)
”What do you want?” asked Anya.
She was currently sitting on Aiden's lap. Her hands grabbed Aiden's shoulders to balance herself, while Aiden hugged her waist and rested his head against Anya's chest.
”I want to hug you like this. Feel your warmth near me,” Aiden said in a low voice.
”Do you think I'll be fooled with that sweet mouth of yours at a time like this?” said Anya.
Aiden just smiled at his annoyed little cat. He looked at Anya who was still stubborn in his arms. The man could understand why his wife was acting like that.
Aiden knew what Anya was thinking.
”Harris told you to sign the agreement letter. I only ask one thing from him. I want you. I don't care about anything else. Harris has been working with me for years so of course he would think of me. If you divorce me without returning the money you borrowed, I will suffer a loss. Harris didn't want me to experience that so he asked you to sign the letter. It's not his fault,” Aiden explained patiently.
”Do you dare to swear that you don't want my mother's garden at all?” asked Anya.
”I, Aiden Atmajaya, will not retract my own words. I married you because I wanted you, not because of that land.” Aiden looked at Anya closely. ”Do you think I will agree to divorce you?”
Anya shook her head slowly. ”I know it's not easy for you to agree to divorce, but I still have to divorce you.”
”Now that you know that I will never divorce you, what are you worrying about? The agreement letter binds you so that you will never leave me. As long as you are still by my side, you don't have to pay all that debt and your mother's garden will be fine,” said Aiden.
”What?” Anya blinked her eyes. Her brain seemed unable to understand Aiden's words.
”I used stupid means to keep you by my side. Anya, there is no word for divorce in my dictionary. Do you remember what I said?” Aiden held Anya's chin and asked her to look at him.
Anya bit her lower lip. ”You said so many things. I don't know which one.”
”I said you can do whatever you want, but there's no divorce. All my life, until you die, you will always be with me. We will die together.” Aiden's eyes, which were warm and soft before, turned cold.
”Until death…? Are you going to kill me?” asked Anya in a low voice.
”I just want to live with you forever. I don't want your mother's land and I don't want your money. All I want is you, only you. I have nothing in this world and you are the most important thing to me. Anya, don't you have a heart?” Aiden pointed towards Anya's heart. ”Am I not good enough for you? Do I love you less?”
Anya seemed to be lost in Aiden's feelings that radiated from his eyes. She couldn't say anything.
As Aiden said, as long as they didn't divorce, her mother's garden would be fine.
Since the beginning of their marriage, Aiden had always emphasized that a divorce would be likely impossible. Although Anya could not confirm that her mother's garden was completely excluded from the project's plan, and even if Aiden didn't divorce her, it would still be hers.
The garden would not change owners.
”Aiden, if I weren' patient and didn't hold back my anger during our marriage, if I didn't try hard to please you by making eye masks, learning how to massage, and so on, would you still like me?” asked Anya.
