Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

The employees of Rose Scent immediately surrounded Anya. When they saw her arriving, but did not find the shop manager's nose, they began to hesitate. Did Anya really not do it? Did the manager do it?

"Anya! You are back!" Said one of the employees.

"Did you see the manager? Why didn't he come back?" Asked the others.

Anya just walked to the locker room calmly saying, "This mall event is coming up soon and we have to work. Don't let this problem affect you. The police will definitely do their best."

After Anya disappeared from their sight, they started whispering to each other.

"Anya is very calm, is it true that she didn't do it?"

"Mrs. Esther and Anya are back, but the manager is nowhere to be seen. Did he do it?"

After changing her clothes, Anya immediately headed to the special perfume manufacturing area. She saw that all the basic ingredients she had made last night were neatly arranged on the table.

"Is Mrs. Esther back?" She asked one of the employees nearby.

"Mrs. Esther is in her office. Together with Mrs. Imel from Amore."

Anya's head looked up, looking at the second floor with a dreamy gaze. Imel Tahir had destroyed her mother's reputation on the internet. Now, she was in Rose Scent's office with Esther. She didn't know what the woman was planning.

She waited at the special perfume-making area for a while because she didn't want to meet Imel. She stayed until the door to Esther's office on the second floor finally opened.

Esther walked out of the room together with Imel following behind her. They went downstairs and saw Anya working in the special perfume making area.

Imel sneered at Anya's whereabouts, "Esther, I've warned you not to raise wolves in your house. Why are you still leaving that child here?"

"Thank you for your advice. I know what I'm doing." Esther continued to face Imel with a smile and led her to the front door.

"It's not too late to fix things." Imel gave her final advice before leaving Rose Scent.

Anya lowered her head from the start until Imel left the place, pretending not to hear anything, even though everything Imel said sounded clear in her ears.

Her mother had been framed and slandered, accused of stealing perfume recipes from Amore and ruining her reputation. After that incident, Diana reminded Anya not to deal with Imel if she was unable to fight her.

After escorting Imel away, Esther returned to the shop and looked at Anya who was in the special perfume making area, "Anya, come with me to the office."

"Yes, ma'am." Anya put down the test tube she was holding and followed Esther into her office quietly.

"Do you want tea?" Esther asked as she took a new cup and poured the tea into it.

"Thank you ma'am. You don't need to bother." Anya's words were indeed polite, but her tone sounded cold.

Esther laughed to herself, "Are you blaming me?"

Anya only smiled bitterly and did not deny it, "It's not nice to be accused in public like that."

"The police are still investigating it. Who do you think is deliberately slandering you?" Esther asked, smiling at Anya.

Anya sat across from Esther, but she did not touch the tea provided by her employer. Imel had drunk it before her. She didn't want to drink the same tea as someone who ruined her mother's career.

"If I may guess, it was Imel Tahir who bribed the manager to accuse me. I don't know whether Mrs. Esther knows it or not." Anya said, expressing her opinion honestly.

"You are a smart woman. When I found out that my recipe was missing, I had the feeling that you would be accused of being the thief. I know it was Ben who deliberately accused you, but I couldn't control the situation until this matter reached Aiden's ears. Then, what are you going to do now?"

Anya looked at Esther's face in confusion, "Ma'am, I don't understand what you're saying."

"You know that Aiden has bought all of Rose Scent's shares. I'll leave this shop with you. Rose Scent is the result of my hard work over the years. I just want to know what you plan to do with it." Esther answered with a hint of sadness in her voice. She had lost Rose Scent, the 'baby' she raised since childhood. She wasn't strong enough to hold on to it and now was the time to let go.

"In this city, only Rose Scent can compete with Amore. I will not let Rose Scent fall." Anya said firmly.

Esther nodded in satisfaction upon hearing Anya's answer, "Do you want to beat Imel?" She asked.

"Yes!" Anya didn't hide her aim at all. She did not hide the hatred she felt for Imel Tahir.

Esther finally breathed a sigh of relief, "Over the years, this Rose Scent of mine has been pressured and cornered by Amore. The people I train and raise so well have been pulled over and taken over by Imel. Since the beginning of the year, Rose Scent began closing many branches, leaving only three shops in the city. Of the three shops, this shop has the best location and the most visitors." Esther explained Rose Scent's background to Anya as the new owner. Even though Rose Scent is no longer hers, she was still fond of the company she created.

"Mrs. Esther, I'm sorry. I can't stop Aiden, but I promise to look after the Rose Scent for you. Then, what are your plans next?" Anya asked thoughtfully, "I want to see Rose Scent continue to progress and develop. I want Rose Scent to keep going during this mall event. I want new product launches to continue and be successful. I hope you don't go because only you can do it."

"Anya, do you understand what you are saying?" Esther asked in surprise.

"Nobody knows Rose Scent better than you. No one cares more for this shop than you. I still respect you as my boss. So, I'd like to get you back to work as general manager at Rose Scent. When class starts, I won't have much time and energy to take care of Rose Scent. I will be relieved if you stay here." Anya said. She expressed what she thought.

"Can I refuse?" Although she loved Rose Scent with all her heart, Esther also had her pride. She couldn't work for a girl who was twenty years old.

"Miss Esther, you can never beat Imel if you don't have support. You have dozens of branches but they all failed and there are only three shops left. Now, Aiden has purchased your remaining three shops, three that are on the brink of collapse. Even though he left all of his responsibilities to me, still the owner of the Rose Scent wasn't me, but Aiden. He is the boss working behind the scenes." Anya said, trying to convince Esther.

"Do you ever think that through me, through the help of Aiden's power, you could defeat Imel? Rose Scent will beat Amore!" Anya was forced to use Aiden's name when trying to persuade Esther. 

She needed someone with experience like Esther to help her.

Esther looked at Anya with a smile, "Using Aiden's power to defeat Imel. Is that my goal? Or your goal?" She asked.
