"Anya, hand over your cell phone to me! Otherwise, don't blame me if I spread your scandal!" Raisa tried to threaten Anya so that she could immediately remove the evidence in Anya's hand. She was not stupid. If the tape did get to the police, she could be charged with defamation.

Anya only smiled sarcastically when she heard Raisa's words, "Scandal? How could I not know about my own scandal? Tell me." Anya said that to Raisa, but her eyes were on Natali.

​​

Raisa was used to being pampered, so she let her emotions explode. Anya didn't have any problem with Raisa, but suddenly that woman came and insulted Anya.

There was only one thing that might happen. Someone instigated it.

There was no need to ask who the instigator was.

Natali, who had lost it all, did not dare to act rashly because she had already felt Aiden's anger. This time, she hid behind Raisa, using the woman as her shield and weapon. How clever…

"Officer, sorry we're just kidding. We know each other. Nothing's happening here." Natali stepped forward and tried to persuade the police to get out of there.

Raisa stared at Anya arrogantly, "Do you remember Hotel Imperial? The presidential suite?"

Anya's heart beat a little faster. The photo when Anya left the hotel had been circulating for a long time on the internet. Why did Raisa mention that hotel again? Was there someone else recording in that room?

"Miss, you have verbally abused this person and defamed her in public. Please come with us." The policemen ignored Natali's words and immediately took up their duties. They really didn't care about the identity of the women in front of them.

"Don't you know who I am?" Raisa said arrogantly at the policemen, "How dare you want to arrest me? If you want to catch someone, this cheap woman should be the one you catch. This woman has destroyed other people's relationships!"

Anya tried to stay calm. She believed in Aiden. There wouldn't be anyone who could enter Aiden's room secretly and record the events of that time. Aiden wouldn't just let it go. She took a deep breath and exhaled. After thinking about Aiden, Anya calmed down again.

"Sir, this woman has often made a scene at my workplace and affected the shop business. She also insulted and threatened me. Once again I asked that this woman be arrested immediately. I don't want to make peace."

The Mahendra family was indeed rich and powerful. But what's the deal?

Anya was no longer a poor girl who could be insulted and oppressed arbitrarily. She was the wife of Aiden Atamajaya. She represented her husband wherever her steps led her.

If someone insulted her, that meant that person was insulting Aiden.

As husband and wife, they shared prosperity and loss.

'Anya, remember Aiden's words.' Anya said to herself, trying to strengthen her resolve.

'Think…'

'Ten years ago, Raisa's father gave you to your father so you almost died. Three years ago, Raisa's mother gave money to you so you can separate from her son. She gives you a check but tells someone to steal it back.'

'Look at that woman in front of you ...This woman who has taken money for your mother's treatment and squandered it for her own pleasure. It is also her who has destroyed your reputation everywhere, saying that you have received money from the Mahendra Family.'

Aiden was right… Anya didn't owe anything to the Tedjasukmana Family and Mahendra Family. They didn't do anything for her and Anya didn't have to do them any favor.

If they oppressed her again, Anya would fight with all her strength...

Seeing Anya's assertiveness, the policemen immediately took Raisa away.

Anya then went to Ben, asking permission to solve this problem, "Sir, I'm sorry that there was a scene in this shop. If Mrs. Esther wants to fire me, I will leave immediately."

"Go, take care of this problem first. Everything depends on Mrs. Esther later." Ben said to her. He didn't say anything but he admired Anya's courage when she faced Raisa.

Anya immediately ordered a taxi to go to the police station because Abdi was at Aiden's company. When she got into the taxi, she didn't expect Aiden to call her, "Anya… Don't be afraid. Harris will be there soon with a lawyer."

Hearing Aiden's voice in her ear, Anya felt her heart warm. Her eyes flushed red as she held back the tears pooling from her lids.

Aiden felt a little worried when he did not hear an answer from Anya, "Anya, are you listening to me?"

"Hmm… I'm fine. Have you arrived?" Anya asked.

"I just got off the plane. I haven't left the airport yet." Aiden said as he walked.

"If I sue Raisa, will I cause trouble for you?" Anya knew how cruel people thought. If she let Raisa do as she pleased, everyone would probably believe her words. If everyone believed in her, Anya wouldn't be able to go back to work. She also wouldn't be able to continue her studies next semester because everyone would think of her as a bad example.

What people might say about her could corner and drown her in hell.

She still had to take care of her mother. Her dream had not been achieved. She also wanted to live with Aiden. There were still many things she wanted to do…

Her path in life was still so long. She didn't want to go through all of this being labelled as a homewrecker. She didn't want the stigma to stick on her. She's not a cheap woman! She wouldn't let anyone insult her anymore…

"Do whatever you want. Do not think about me. I will always support your decision." Aiden said calmly.

"Aiden... Thank you." Anya said in a choked voice.

Aiden knew that Anya was a gentle and kind woman. Anya wouldn't take the initiative to attack anyone else. Nor would she do anything Aiden didn't want her to do.

How could Aiden not support her to do whatever she wanted?

With this incident too, Aiden taught Anya that she must be able to walk alone to find the right path. He didn't want to put Anya under his auspices and turn her into a helpless woman who could do nothing without his help. Anya must be able to find her own way…

Anya felt very lucky that Aiden was by her side. She thought Natali must have gone crazy wanting to leave a man as good as Aiden.

She did not know that Aiden was not nice to everyone. Only Anya got special treatment from Aiden.

Only Anya...

"Hmm... Instead of thanking me, I would rather hear you say that you like me." Aiden said with a laugh. He said it only to tease Anya so that the woman wouldn't be sad.

However, he never thought that those words were really going to come out of Anya's lips.

"I like you!" Anya said.

"Really?" Aiden's lips formed a smile, but not the usual faint or cynical smile. This time, he showed a happy smile.

"I wouldn't lie in something like this!" Anya replied after thinking for a moment.

"Hmm..."

Hmm? That's all? There was no other answer? Shouldn't it be that at this moment, Aiden said that he also liked her? Aiden wanted Anya to like him, but Aiden still kept Keara in his heart. Was that why he didn't want to say that he liked her?

When thinking about this, Anya felt her heart hurt. She had warned herself not to hope for more, but it turned out that her heart still cared.

"Aiden ... Do you like me? Anya asked in a sad voice. Aiden felt that Anya's question was ridiculous. Of course he liked her! Was it necessary to ask it? 

"Yes!" He replied briefly.

That answer made Anya immediately cheerful. At least, Aiden also liked her even if only a little. 

"I've arrived at the police station. Don't worry. I won't say anything until Harris arrives." Anya said.

"Even if Raka begs you, don't forgive his sister easily. Tell Raisa to apologize in public and in front of the entire media crew." Aiden told her, warning his wife.

"If I told her to apologize in public, wouldn't that make Raka know about the money?" Anya asked.

"Raisa is not that stupid to admit that she wasted the money." Aiden calmly answered her.

"Okay," Anya said, nodding. Suddenly, she remembered Raisa's threat, "Aiden, is it possible if someone sneaked into your room and recorded us secretly?" Anya asked him a little ambiguously. She began to feel worried as she didn't mention Raisa's threat directly. 

Aiden's lips curved and formed a meaningful smile, "The hotel I live in has been checked by my special subordinates. There will be no intruders or recording devices in the room. No one can see our first night. Only you and I…"

Anya's face turned red when she heard Aiden's answer. She couldn't say anything! She didn't say it clearly, but Aiden could guess that their first night was what got her worried!

Aiden laughed when he didn't hear Anya's answer. He could imagine his wife's face blushing. Her cheeks must have flushed and her eyes slightly wide, while her mouth was open and closed repeatedly.

"Remember, no one can bully or insult the wife of Aiden Atmajaya. I'm proud of you!" Aiden said.
