Chapter 506 - The Best Mother (1/2)
Anya was chatting with her mother on the phone when she realized Tara was looking at her wistfully.
”Why are you looking at me like that?” Anya flicked Tara's forehead gently and ended the call.
Tara immediately snapped out of her reverie and changed the subject, ”It's okay. What did your mother say?”
”My mother said the guest who rented her room had returned. She will order someone to clean the house. she was very happy when she found out that you were going to stay overnight. Mother also said that she will take Mrs. Esther over to the house for dinner together. We're having a barbecue!” Anya said with a happy smile.
Tara was silent for a moment and then asked doubtfully, ”Nico wants barbecue too. Can I come with him?”
Anya felt conflicted when she had to answer that. Actually, she didn't want to invite Nico because he was a member of the Atmajaya Family. But in the end, she decided to agree to it.
”Okay.”
”How about asking Mrs. Hana to come too? Her cooking is delicious and she lives close to your mother's house. It's a coincidence that Aiden is also abroad. We can take this opportunity to gather together!” Tara suggested.
Anya didn't reject the suggestion. During the two years she was abroad, Hana always contacted her. The maid would occasionally tell a story or two about Aiden.
Unlike Nico, he had many friends and was active on his social media. Without Hana, Anya wouldn't know about Aiden's news.
Even though they had been divorced for two years, Anya had never deleted Aiden's cellphone number or blocked his social media.
Every now and then she would upload a photo, hoping Aiden would see it. But Aiden never contacted her at all.
Finally, after two years, Anya found out the reason why Aiden had never contacted her. The man thought of her as his niece and hoped that Anya could start a new life without him.
That's why Aiden didn't want to interfere with Anya's new life.
…
That night, Diana's house was very crowded.
Nico and Tara were chatting in the garden, while Hana and a few servants from Aiden's house were grilling barbecue.
Even though Anya and Aiden had separated, the relationship between Hana and her family has not changed. Tonight, Diana provided all the ingredients, while Hana was in charge of cooking it.
Diana's sense of smell had recovered a little, although it still couldn't return to perfection. She could taste food and live a normal life. But she could not go back to work as a parfumeur.
Even so, Diana was quite satisfied. At least, she could taste the delicious food.
Esther and Anya were sitting on the living room sofa chatting. They could smell barbecue from outside and hear Tara and Nico's laughter.
”You can still be friends with your ex-husband's nephew,” Esther cracked a joke.
Anya only smiled faintly at that.
