Chapter 388 - Female Voice (1/2)
”Aiden, can't Tara and Nico be together?” Anya asked, looking up at her husband.
”They can't,” Aiden answered simply.
”I can see that Tara is just pretending to be strong but actually has Nico in her heart,” Anya pursed her lips, looking sad.
”If they love each other, why don't they want to wait for each other? Nico was still unable to stand on his own. He may not really love Tara. Maybe he's just possessive and doesn't want to lose the woman he wants right now,” Aiden said.
Anya thought about it carefully and thought that Aiden's concern was quite reasonable. She was also afraid that this was just part of Nico's playboy nature.
”Nobody knows about the future. At least, Tara was willing to give Nico a chance and wait for him. I think that's enough,” Anya said, rubbing her head against Aiden's neck. ”I'm dizzy, I want to sleep,”
”Go to sleep. I will stay with you,” Aiden said in a soft voice.
Anya leaned back in Aiden's arms and fell asleep.
She could vaguely feel Aiden carrying her and leaving the hotel. She didn't know where they were going since she was too tired to open her eyes.
When she woke up, Anya had already returned home. The clock showed one o'clock in the morning.
After resting, her body was now much better than before. She no longer felt dizzy or nauseous. She just felt hungry and wanted to eat.
Anya wore her house slippers and found out that someone had changed her clothes.
She walked out of the bedroom door and heard a voice in the study. That meant Aiden was at work.
Before going downstairs and looking for food, Anya decided to find her husband first. However, she heard a strange sound from the study instead.
”Ah...”
A woman's scream was heard. Anya felt her head buzzing and dizzy. Did Aiden hide a woman in his study?
No, no! Aiden was not that kind of person.
Anya took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. She walked into the study and knocked softly on the door. ”Aiden, can I come in?”
When he heard Anya's voice, Aiden immediately turned off his laptop and said in a low voice, ”Come in,”
Anya then opened the door. Nobody was there other than Aiden. But Anya just heard a woman's voice from the inside the room…
”I woke up and couldn't sleep anymore. But you are not in the room. I want to find a book so I can sleep again,” Anya said while approaching the bookshelf behind Aiden's chair. She looked around the room to the very remote place, but she could not find a single person.
Aiden sat on his chair lazily and looked at Anya with a smile. ”Have you found the book you want?”
”Yes,” Anya took one of the books carelessly to cover up her lie.
”Looks like you are not really looking for books,” Aiden immediately exposed Anya's lies.
Anya laughed. ”How do you know? I'm actually looking for a cat. I just saw a cat and it suddenly disappeared. I heard its voice from inside this room. I think the cat got in here,”
”I'm not interested in animals. I prefer children over animals,” Aiden's tall body immediately approached her.
Anya swallowed hard. A smile appeared on her face, but her legs continued to back off.
She glanced back and looked at the door. When Aiden didn't pay attention, Anya immediately fled and went downstairs.
