Chapter 714 - Going For A While (1/2)

”Father, can you at least tell me where Anya is now? I promise I won't disturb her. I just want to see her from afar,” Aiden asked.

”When she gets used to living in a new place and her condition is stable, I will ask the doctor's permission. If the doctor allows it, I will bring you to Anya. Aiden, Anya is my daughter. I will never hurt her, don't worry!” Galih said calmly.

”Of course I believe in you. But I can't rest easy if I can't…”

”I understand your feelings for Anya. Maybe Anya can't understand you, but as a man, I absolutely can. However, Anya experienced many problems and difficulties this year. You do love her, but love alone is not enough. She wants to earn your trust,” Galih exhaled a deep breath.

”Forgive me. I couldn't take care of her properly,” Aiden apologized sincerely.

”As a man, I can understand you and your good intentions. I can understand that you really love Anya. But sometimes, you have to have one thing or another. Nico is not a kid anymore. If he continues to take cover under your wings, he will never grow up to be independent. When the time comes to let go, you must learn to let go. You are used to being in control of everything so you don't realize that you are missing something. You are not only the CEO of Atmajaya Group, you're also Anya's husband and the father of Arka and Aksa. That's all I can say to you. Think about it carefully.”

After he finished his talk, Galih hung up the phone.

One week later, Aiden came home from abroad and found a letter that Anya had left at home.

Aiden carried the letter into his study and took the contents out of the envelope.

From the paper, there was a faint fragrance that could be smelled. It was similar to flowers, the scent that Anya loved.

Aiden opened the letter and saw the familiar beautiful handwriting that it made his eyes feel hot.

He really missed his wife.

…

Dear husband,

I'm sorry I have to convey all this by letter.

I'll be going for a while.

I left because I didn't want to fight you. I left because I didn't want to be apart from you.

You must be very angry because I had planned to leave you for a long time.

I had been preparing for my departure for a long time, but you were completely unaware. I know you've got something on your mind.

During the few weeks on the island, I also wanted to be happy with you. I tried to make myself laugh and happy, but my heart couldn't lie.

I feel sad, I feel depressed.

I know I'm sick, and that's why I don't want to demand too much of you. I can't ask you to choose between me and your job.

Aiden, know that I don't want to separate from you and leave you.

I don't know what happened to me, or what's wrong with me. I really love you and our kids, but I can't control myself.

I don't want to hurt the people I love.

You asked me not to make decisions when I was sick like this, because now I can't understand what I really want.

After thinking about it, I decided to withdraw myself for a while. I needed a new place to be alone and organize my thoughts.

I'm afraid that if I don't go, I'll be even sadder.

I'm afraid I will hate you, and even hate myself more.

Trust me, I will recover soon and come back to your side.

If at that time you still loved me and I still loved you, we could live happily!
