Chapter 448 - The Best Way (2/2)

”Sis, are you okay?” Ivan asked worriedly.

”Father is fine. His blood pressure was high so there was a little bleeding in his brain. But that's no big deal. He just needs a lot of rest,” said Maria.

”Why did father's blood pressure suddenly rise? Is it because I canceled my engagement?” Ivan asked regretfully.

Maria shook her head. ”Ivan, daddy was really angry when you suddenly canceled your engagement without telling us. But we know Keara doesn't love you. Besides, I also knew that Nadine's disappearance had something to do with her. We also don't want Keara to be part of the Atmajaya Family. So, you don't need to blame yourself,”

”Is it because of Anya?” Ivan was a smart man. Nothing could be hidden from him. He immediately guessed what caused his father's blood pressure to rise suddenly.

”What did you say?” Maria could only look at Ivan in surprise.

”Sis, Keara already knows about this problem and she used it to force me to cancel our engagement. She can't forget Aiden and maybe she will do something to harm Anya. You have to be careful,” said Ivan

”How dare she!” Maria's eyes bulged with anger. She will fight anyone who dared to harm her daughter.

”What will you do?” Ivan asked worriedly.

”After Christmas, everything will end. Ivan, Anya has suffered a lot. Help me to hide all this from her,” Maria said in a weak voice.

Ivan could only look at Maria in surprise. Maria decided not to tell Anya to keep her feelings from breaking apart.

Finally, Ivan nodded. ”Sis, you have done your best,”

Maria raised her head and took a deep breath. She held back her tears and tried to calm her feelings.

By hiding all this, she could protect Anya's heart. This was the best way.

”Go inside. Your mother is inside,” Maria said before leaving.

Ivan stood there for a long time, staring at Maria's lonely back. His heart was broken for Anya.

…

While Anya was having lunch, she heard the news that Bima was taken to the hospital because of bleeding in his brain. Initially, she wanted to visit Bima, but Aiden immediately stopped her.

She was currently pregnant, Aiden didn't want Anya to catch any illness from visiting the hospital.

Finally, Anya decided to call Bima. ”Father, this is Anya. I heard you are hospitalized. Are you okay?”

”Anya, I'm fine. I'm just too emotional and my blood pressure is out of control. Doctor says I can come home in a few days. No need to visit me,” said Bima.

”When you come home, I will visit you at home,” Anya said politely.

”Take good care of your health, you are pregnant. I will eat now, see you later,” Bima forced a smile on his face but his heart was very sore.

At first, he disliked Anya because of her family background which was not good enough, and then he began to accept and like her.

But who would have thought that Anya would be his granddaughter?

”Bima, what's wrong with you? Why do you look like you want to cry?” Imel was worried when she saw the expression on Bima's face.

”I'm worried about Ivan and I don't know how Keara can persuade him to cancel the engagement. Ivan didn't care about himself at all. He even broke off his engagement, saying that he might be paralyzed for life. If it's like this, who wants to be his wife?” Bima said with a sad expression.
