Chapter 676 - Gravely Injured (1/2)
”Nothing. Focus on looking after Arka and Aksa. When everything is over, Aiden will be back soon,” Tara replied, recalling Aiden's explanation to her.
Anya was sure there was some serious problem going on related to her that even Tara didn't want to tell her.
What happened?
Did something happen to Iris? But Iris' should be fine because no one could match it with Keara's Perfume going bankrupt.
Did something happen to her mother, Diana? But her mother lived near her house and Hana always accompanied her. Aiden had also arranged several bodyguards to always look after her mother.
Did it happen to her other mother, Indah? Several months ago, her mother had just undergone a liver transplant operation. After that, her hand had to be injured because of Mona's knife attack. Aiden said, the wound on her hand was bad enough that Indah didn't want to tell her.
Last night, Anya had a video call with her mother and father. But her mother looked a little pale. Galih told her that Indah had a cold.
Was Galih hiding something from her? Was her mother sick again?
Anya immediately contacted Galih's phone number. The phone rang for a long time, but it wasn't answered.
Anya felt even more panicked.
Aiden didn't answer his phone, neither did Galih. Something must have happened!
Tara didn't want to tell her and she couldn't ask the other members of the Atmajaya Family either. Now, who else should she find?
Her mother! He must call her mother!
Diana would never hide anything from her, not even the worst.
Anya immediately called Diana's number, but only the operator's voice could be heard from across.
”The number you have dialed is disabled or out of reach...”
Out of reach? Why did her mother's cell phone turn off?
Anya looked so panicked as she didn't know who else to contact.
Suddenly, Raka's name appeared in her mind. She then decided to try asking Raka.
At his house, Raka was sitting facing the window, looking at his bergamot tree in the garden. Since he was angry before, not a single person dared to touch that tree.
Della ran over to him, carrying his cellphone. ”Sir, your cell phone.”
”Who is it?” Raka didn't look back, still staring at the bergamot tree. Nobody knew what he was thinking right now.
”Anya,” Della read the name displayed on the cellphone screen.
Della already knew some information about Anya from the internet. Anya was the head parfumeur at Iris. Despite her very young age, she had won two prestigious perfume competitions. She was a very talented woman.
And more importantly, she was Raka's first love.
Although Della didn't know why Raka often stood silently while gazing at the bergamot tree in the garden, she was sure that the tree had something to do with this woman named Anya.
”Anya?” Raka immediately turned around and took the cellphone from Della's hand.
But when he thought about someone who was seriously injured in the hospital, Raka hesitated to answer the call. What should he tell Anya?
If he told the truth, Anya would be even more worried.
If Anya insisted on returning to the city because of it, she could be in danger.
”Sir, are you not going to answer the phone?” Della reminded Raka carefully. His cellphone had been ringing for quite a while.
”You pick it up. Tell her I went out and left my cell phone at home,” Raka returned the cell phone to Della.
Della accepted it with a confused expression. She did not understand why Raka did not want to answer the call. But in the end, she did what Raka ordered her.
