"When you come back later, come to Mother's house. Nico planned to propose to Tara in the garden," Anya said from the phone.

Propose?

​​

Aiden remembered when he and Anya got married. At that time, Anya was desperately in need. She never had a romantic proposal by the man she loved.

They just went to the civil registry office and got their marriage certificate right away.

"Do women like to be proposed like that?" Aiden asked.

"Of course. That's very romantic. We've even been looking for photographers to capture their moments. Tara still doesn't know about this plan," Anya said excitedly.

Aiden listened to the story while in deep thought. Then he replied, "I'll be back as soon as I can to witness their joyful moments,"

"You also take care of your health. Hurry up and sleep, don't stay up late," Anya remembered Aiden's headache and realized that it was late at night.

"Good night," Aiden hung up the phone with a smile.

After the call ended, the smile on his face immediately disappeared and he immediately called Harris.

Keara was discharged from the hospital since Monday. Within days, news of her pregnancy had spread all over the city.

There was no way that Anya had not heard the news, but she made no mention of Keara's pregnancy. Aiden did not know whether Anya did not care about the news or completely placed her trust in him.

Harris immediately received the call. "'Sir, why don't you rest?"

"What about the investigation regarding Keara's pregnancy?" Aiden asked.

"They said she spent a few days in the hospital to protect her pregnancy. But actually, she was in the hospital to undergo the IVF procedure. The operation was successful and she was pregnant with your child, sir," Harris said cautiously.

"I didn't even touch her. How did she get pregnant with my child? Is it a sperm bank…" Aiden suddenly realized it. "Have you investigated my sperm bank in Singapore?"

"Yes, sir. Someone deliberately took your sperm from a sperm bank in Singapore," Harris answered.

"Just leave it then. I hope Keara won't regret all of this." Aiden's lips smiled, forming a cruel smile.

"Aren't you going to explain it to Madame? I am afraid she will misunderstand," Harris asked as he knew that the relationship between Anya and Aiden had just gotten better again.

They had hopes of getting back together.

But at the same time, the news about Keara's pregnancy broke out.

Two years ago, Aiden and Anya separated because of him. Harris did not properly maintain the DNA test result he took from Hong Kong. After knowing everything, Harris blamed himself and hoped he could fix his carelessness first.

But if Keara was pregnant and Anya refused to come back with Aiden, what could he do?

Aiden was silent and did not answer Harris' question. Actually, he didn't know whether Anya believed him or not.

"Sir, I have one more thing to report. Miss Raisa has returned to Indonesia," Harris said.

"Watch her. If she dares to do something again, I won't forgive her this time," Aiden said coldly.

"After returning to Indonesia, she was seen approaching Imel and even having dinner with Mr. Ivan. Rian Mahendra was there too. It looks very suspicious," Harris said.

How could a smart man like Aiden not know the meaning of that meeting?

Raisa made such a big fuss two years ago that she was in prison. The incident made it difficult for her to find a partner, so Irena was very worried.

As everyone knew it, that incident happened to Raisa because she did something to Aiden.

If Raisa could marry into the Atmajaya Family, that problem would be considered resolved.

Ivan was single and Raisa needed a partner. Besides, the two had known each other since childhood.

Irena was willing to have dinner with Imel, maybe because she wanted to set Raisa up with Ivan.

Otherwise, how could Irena, a high-class woman, want to eat at the same table with a cunning woman who had destroyed someone's marriage before.

For 30 years, Imel could only be Bima's mistress, without being able to legalize her status. Everyone secretly laughed at her.

Although Irena disliked Imel, her son, Ivan Atmajaya, was a handsome man with extraordinary abilities.

She heard that he was sick and didn't want to have anything to do with the Atmajaya Group company, when in fact he was just hiding his abilities.

Once Raisa married him, Ivan would be able to compete with Aiden with help from the Mahendra family.

It was also a coincidence that Irena held a grudge against Aiden. Because of him, her beloved daughter had to languish in prison and fled abroad.

At the time, Aiden was not even injured, but her young daughter almost committed suicide in prison.

To save Raisa, the Mahendra family even had to give up one of their properties to Aiden.

They had suffered a lot because of Aiden's actions.

How could they remain silent?

Now, they had the opportunity to remove Aiden from the throne. There was no way they would miss this opportunity.

According to Rian, Aiden was not afraid of the Mahendra family.

Aiden's biggest enemy was Ivan, his own brother, who also happened to be a talented man. The Mahendra family would be very happy if Raisa could marry Ivan and help him to get a position in the Atmajaya Family.

The Mahendra Family's wish was clearly visible. How could Harris and Aiden know?

"If you tell Nico about Raisa and Ivan's matchmaking, he will tell my father," Aiden did not want to interfere in this matter. He would leave his own father to deal with Imel later.

In fact, he himself also wanted to know what his father was going to do.

In one family, there was only one person who could be the leader. With Aiden, Ivan would not be able to lead. Even if Aiden wanted to resign, he would not give up his position to Ivan, but to Nico.

Harris understood Aiden's request. "I see. I will convey it to Mr. Nico immediately."

"Tomorrow, Anya will go with Esther. Arrange some of my bodyguards to guard her. Pay attention to her safety carefully," Aiden said.

"Yes sir." Harris seemed hesitant to hang up the phone and finally decided to tell Aiden. "Sir, this morning, Jonathan Srijaya called me, saying that his family wanted to arrange a marriage between him with Miss Nadine. Raisa was also on the Srijaya Family's list of potential wives, but in the end, they chose Miss Nadine because of her much better personality," Harris said, swallowing hard. "Sir…"

"Harris, I will never do anything to disappoint you. You are my right hand. I know Nadine won't accept the proposal. But I'm afraid the Srijaya Family will do something to destroy Nadine's good name and force her to accept their proposal," Aiden said.

"I will look after Miss Nadine," Harris replied.

"Be careful these days. Wait till I come back," Aiden said before ending the call.

He closed his eyes and felt a sharp pain in his forehead. Too many problems came at him at the same time lately.

Aiden took a pain reliever and then went to bed.

Around two in the afternoon, Iris was not too crowded with visitors so the employees were lazing around and gossiping.

"Did you know? Keara is pregnant with Aiden's child and she deliberately stayed at the hospital to protect her pregnancy."

"I also saw her this morning when I went to Keara's Parfume. She used a mask."

"Does Anya know it? She's in the perfume room every day, preparing to enter the competition. Meanwhile, Keara gave up on the competition to give birth to Aiden's child. What's the point for Anya to win this competition then? Is that victory much more valuable than Aiden Atmajaya?"
