Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

Anya had really never seen Esther's perfume formula. She didn't even know the ins and outs of Esther's office. Such an important object could not possibly be placed carelessly. How could Anya steal it?

"You two come with me." Esther said to Anya and Ben before going upstairs. Anya immediately followed Esther to her office, followed by Ben behind her.

As soon as he entered the office, Ben immediately took Anya's bag, "Anya, quickly hand over the recipe. Otherwise the problem won't be solved."

Anya saw Ben insisted on searching her so she finally gave up, "I'm not afraid of your accusations because I really don't take them. Please just search. I didn't do anything wrong."

Anya let Ben search her bag because now there were only three of them in the place. Downstairs, there were other employees so Anya refused to be publicly humiliated.

Anya was sure Esther could solve this problem fairly.

Esther was about to stop Ben and take the bag from her, but Ben moved faster and took a few steps back while checking the contents of the bag. She stretched out her hand and took an envelope inside the bag.

Anya looked at the envelope with a shocked look. She had never seen an envelope like that. It was not her property, "It's not my stuff."

"Mrs. Esther, look. Is this your recipe?" Ben handed the envelope to Esther.

Esther took the envelope suspiciously and opened it. It was really her missing recipe. She looked at Ben, then at Anya.

"Here's my recipe." She said softly.

Ben snorted coldly. He sneered as he looked at Anya, treating her like a criminal, "Anya, you have stolen Esther's recipe and don't want to admit it. Now the evidence is clear. What else do you want to say?"

"Miss Esther, I really didn't steal your recipe. I've just seen the envelope for the first time. I don't know how the envelope got in my bag. It was not in my bag when I left this morning!" Anya frantically tried to explain it.

"But the envelope is in your bag." Ben said, staring coldly at Anya.

"Mrs. Esther, if it is true that I stole the recipe, why would I bring it back. I can sell it or hide it. Why should I take it to the office again?" Anya said calmly. She must remain calm in any situation. The more she panicked, the more suspicious everyone would be.

"You can't take your cell phone with you at work so you can't take pictures. You take the recipe to photograph it and will return it so that no one will find out the recipe is missing. But you didn't expect that Mrs. Esther would come to the office so early and find out that her recipe was missing. Now that everything is uncovered, there's no need to dodge it!" Ben sneered.

Anya didn't care about Ben anymore because the man kept trying to corner her. She looked at Esther and hoped that her boss would believe her, "I really didn't take it. I've never even seen it before."

Esther seemed to consider and finally said, "I gave the recipe to Anya. She didn't steal it."

"Mrs. Esther, why are you defending her?" You should have fired her right away!" Ben shouted disapprovingly. But Esther immediately interrupted him, "This recipe is useful for Anya's study."

"Anya! Be honest! Did you steal it or did Mrs Esther really give it to you?" Ben asked.

Anya felt confused when she heard that. She didn't steal it, but Esther didn't give her the recipe either. How should she answer it?

"What do you mean, manager?" Asked Anya angrily.

"What do I mean? It's clearly in your bag. Isn't it obvious that you stole it?" Ben raised his voice. He wanted everyone to hear it, especially the Rose Scent employees on the first floor.

"Shut up!" Esther rebuked him harshly.

Ben felt he was treated unfairly. His eyes flushed red as he looked at Esther, "Ma'am, I've worked for you for five years, but you would rather trust this new kid than me. You have lost your perfume recipe and I was trying to find it. What did I do wrong?"

"Rose Scent is mine and that recipe is mine too. I want to give it to Anya. It is my right!" Esther said.

Ben did not expect Esther to defend Anya. He did not know that Esther could see all his lies so clearly.

Anya also felt so disappointed with Ben. Since the beginning she worked at Rose Scent, Ben always treated her well and taught her many things about Rose Scent. She felt calm because she had an honest boss like Ben, but she didn't expect Ben to stab her in the back.

"Miss Esther, why are you trying to defend Anya? She clearly stole your recipe! I'll call the police." Ben was furious. 

"Don't call the police!" Esther said.

However, Ben didn't listen to Esther's order at all. He left the office and shouted from the upstairs stairs to the employees below, "Hurry up and call the police. I found the missing recipe in Anya's bag."

"Try saying that one more time!" As soon as Ben yelled, the answer came from a deep, cold man's voice.

From inside the office room, Anya could also hear that voice. It was Aiden's voice.

Why did Aiden suddenly come back? Shouldn't he be back the day after tomorrow?

"W-… Mr. Aiden…" Ben was stunned and his tongue tied, speechless.

Anya immediately rushed out of Esther's office and saw Aiden's tall body standing under the chandelier on the first floor of the shop. His eyes were cold and his body emitted a terrifying aura as he stared at Ben.

When she saw Aiden, Anya's eyes felt hot and sore. Many things happened while Aiden was away and Anya had to bear it alone.

Raisa insulted her in public, Irena and her father came to pressure her. Raka also kept looking for her, making Anya feel depressed.

And now, everyone was suddenly accusing her of being a thief.

"Aiden..." Aiden's name softly escaped from Anya's lips. 

Seeing the figure he missed day and night, Aiden's heart melted. His petite wife looked at him with reddened eyes under everyone's accusation.

When Anya said that she would work in Esther's perfume room, Aiden should have reminded her to be careful with the recipe formula. That place was Esther's private area, so if anything happened, everyone would feel suspicious of Anya.

Unfortunately, he was too emotional when discussing Raka's problem yesterday. He even scolded Anya and told her not to continue to test his patience.

But the next day, Aiden regretted his words. He shouldn't have been that harsh to Anya. In the end, he decided to charter a private jet and go home.

Who knew, once he got off the plane, he heard that Esther's perfume recipe disappeared and Anya became the suspect.

Luckily, Aiden came home today. Otherwise, he wouldn't know how much burden Anya had been feeling lately.

Aiden's face seemed to soften when he looked at Anya. He slightly opened his hands, gesturing for Anya to approach him immediately.

Without thinking, Anya immediately ran downstairs and buried herself in his arms ...
