Anya could hear the sound of approaching footsteps. She opened her mouth and intended to bite Aiden, but the man took the opportunity to put his tongue into Anya's mouth and attacked her lips deeper instead.
Anya raised her leg as she wanted to use it to attack Aiden. But Aiden was already on guard and easily dodged it.
Finally, he let go of Anya's lips.
"Mama, are you here?" At the same time, a small figure entered the room.
Before Alisa could see the situation clearly, Nadine rushed in and carried her. "Alisa, let's go play the swing,"
Anya's body slumped while her back was still leaning against the refrigerator's door. Her legs were too limp that she couldn't stand on her own two feet.
Aiden immediately hugged her waist and helped her to her feet.
"I've been looking for you, mama!" Nadine saw Anya's flushed face and wrinkled clothes, so she immediately led Alisa to the family room.
However, Alisa held the kitchen's door tightly and didn't want to let go. "Put me down! I saw mama!"
Nadine had no other choice but to lower Alisa from her arms. After that, the little girl immediately ran towards Anya.
Seeing Anya's flushed face and unable to stand up, Alisa immediately looked worried. "Mama, are you sick?"
"Your mama is tired. Let uncle help her upstairs to rest. Don't bother her, okay?" Aiden walked out carrying Anya as if nothing had happened. His face still looked very calm.
Anya was so scared that her knees were weak while Aiden still looked calm.
What a jerk!
"Mama, do you want to go to the hospital?" Alisa looked at Anya with worry.
Anya shook her head. "Don't worry. Mama is okay. Go play with Nadine,"
Alisa immediately went to Nadine and took her hand, not wanting to bother her mother anymore. "I won't be noisy so you can rest well, mommy."
At that time, Diana was relaxing in her rocking chair, enjoying the afternoon air.
"Grandma is relaxing, I also want to relax," seeing Diana sitting in a rocking chair, Alisa immediately ran towards the swing.
Aiden pretended to help Anya upstairs to rest. Once they were on the second floor, Anya immediately beat him. "Are you happy? What if Alisa saw it?"
"If Alisa saw it, it means it's time for us to explain how the prince and princess love each other," the man answered. "I didn't expect you to be that shy. Which one is your room?"
"Put me down and just go home!" Anya said angrily.
"You want me to put you down with those limp legs? Would you like to crawl back to your room?" Aiden teased.
"You..." Anya felt really angry. Why did this man always embarrass her like this…
But she also couldn't beat Aiden in arguments.
What else could she do?
She was timid, shy, not good at talking, and could not have children.
She was so bad, definitely not worthy of Aiden. What did the man actually see in her?
Aiden found Anya's room based on the house's initial design he still remembered in his mind. After all, he was the one who designed this house.
When he entered the room, he closed the door with his feet.
Anya was immediately surprised to see him. "Why did you close the door? This is my house. Do not try to do anything to me!"
"Your mind is so dirty. Is that what you think all day?" After lowering Anya on the bed, Aiden sat on the edge. "Tomorrow, I will go overseas to inspect branch companies."
"Tomorrow?" Anya looked confused. "When are you coming back?"
"It depends on the situation. If you need anything, ask Nico. If you miss me, you can call me," Aiden said with a smile.
"I won't miss you," Anya said stiffly.
Aiden stroked Anya's head gently and smiled. "Harris will continue to search for your parents' whereabouts. If there is news, I will tell you right away. If Keara is looking for trouble with you, don't pay attention to her,"
"I understand," Anya pursed her lips.
"Get some rest. I'll wait for you tonight," Aiden returned to gently stroking Anya's head.
"I'll think about it," Anya replied, turning her back to Aiden, looking a little embarrassed.
"I will wait," Aiden pulled the blanket and covered Anya's body before leaving the room.
From time to time, Diana kept looking at Anya's door, but she didn't expect Aiden to come down so fast.
"Aiden, are you going home already?" Diana got up from her rocking chair.
"Mother, I will go abroad tomorrow. Now I have to go back to the office to take care of my work," Aiden replied.
"Oh, you must be busy," Diana led Aiden to the door. Before getting into the car, the man bid his goodbye. "Thank you for the lunch today."
"I'm not as smart as Hana in cooking. But if you like my cooking enough, come over to the house often. I'll cook for you again," Diana said.
"After returning from abroad, I will definitely come," Aiden replied with a smile.
"Tell me if you want to come so I can prepare the ingredients," Diana was pleased that Aiden did not refuse. She knew her cooking wasn't as good as Hana's, but Aiden appreciated her hard work.
"I'll go home first. Come in and rest, no need to take me."
"Yes, go home. Take care on your way."
From her room, Anya was standing in front of the window, watching Aiden and Diana chat, laughing from a distance. She didn't know what they were talking about, but Anya could see clearly that her mother really liked Aiden.
After Aiden left, Anya returned to her bed and closed her eyes.
During the last three days with Aiden, Anya was really sleep deprived.
Plus, she had to keep up with Alisa all day for the photoshoot in the garden. She continued to smile in front of the camera until her face felt stiff.
Now she was really tired
...
Anya fell asleep until it got dark. Around six in the evening, she woke up from hunger.
She could smell some cooking from her room so she decided to go downstairs.
"Mom, what did you cook? I can smell it from upstairs," Anya was still wearing her cartoon pajamas as she walked down the stairs, still half conscious because she just woke up.
She didn't know since when Jonathan had been there, but this was the first time the man had seen Anya dress this casually. "Anya ..."
"Jonathan! You're back!" Anya immediately smoothed her messy hair.
"My work is done ahead of time, so I can come early. You must have been troubled these days. Did Alisa give you a hard time?" Jonathan asked with a smile.
"No, Alisa is very obedient. We all love her so much. Sorry, I didn't know you came. I'll change clothes first," Anya forgot that Jonathan would pick up Alisa today. She was really embarrassed because she came down still in her nightgown.
Alisa and Nadine were playing in the garden. As soon as she heard Anya's voice, Alisa immediately went inside happily. "Papa, is mama awake?"
"Mama is awake. She's changing clothes and will come down in a moment," Jonathan carried Alisa and lifted her into his lap. "Shall we wash our hands and eat?"
Alisa immediately nodded excitedly.
Meanwhile, Nadine continued to stare toward the door. Soon it would be dinner time. Why hadn't her uncle come yet?
Anya came back downstairs after changing her clothes. As soon as she got down, she heard a car coming from the front.
When she heard the sound, Anya immediately felt suspicious.
Who came over to her house that evening?
