Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

"Maria is right. We can't hurt Tara. Ivan, how about you get engaged first and postpone your marriage to Raisa?" Bima said, looking at Ivan.

"Let Nico get married first. I'm not in a hurry," Ivan replied calmly.

"How old are you? How can you not worry? Even your nephew will become a father soon!" Imel was so furious when she heard her son was not against his father's suggestion.

Bima ignored her for the last two years. Heru also left her all the while Ivan announced that he was sick.

Seeing what life had been handing out to her, Imel could only feel sorry.

She regretted why her life couldn't be much better. 

She was deeply hurt for not getting married to Bima and became Mrs. Atmajaya.

"Everyone has agreed then. Call Harris here," Bima ordered.

After Heru resigned from his position, Bima did not look for a new assistant. If there was anything he wanted to do, he would ask Harris, who had now become his and Aiden's assistant.

Harris then rushed into the house. "Sir, you called me."

"Tell Raka and announce the engagement between Ivan and Raisa first," Bima said.

Then, Harris gave the iPad he was carrying to him. "Sir, this is a copy of clarification made by Atmajaya Group's public relations."

Bima took the iPad and read the writing on the screen, then he gave it to Imel. "Look. I don't think there's a problem."

"I have old photos on my cell phone that you might be able to use." After reading the copy, Imel felt the clarification was not enough.

Since Ivan and Raisa were childhood friends, of course they needed their childhood photos.

Ivan had always been warm since childhood. If only she and Diana weren't enemies back then, maybe Anya or Raisa would be Imel's daughter-in-law.

She wanted to observe how the Tedjasukmana Family and the Mahendra Family developed over the years, then decided who would be more suitable for her son. The choice was between Anya or Raisa.

Unexpectedly, after ending his engagement to Keara, Ivan was finally going to get engaged to Raisa, one of the girls Imel considered an option for her son.

From the start, Imel had intended to choose Anya or Raisa as Ivan's partner. That's why she often took photos when they played together.

Since childhood, Raisa really liked to follow wherever Raka went.

As long as Anya was not there, Raisa would always follow Raka to play with Ivan and create many memories with him.

Of course, the innocent and beautiful moments they had were immortalized by Imel in pictures. In the end, all of the photos she took back then came in handy.

Before coming to the Atmajaya family house, Imel deliberately looked for the photo on her computer and edited it so that it looked a little blurry.

Harris took the cell phone and checked the matching photos before sending them to Ivan. After that, Ivan would choose the final photo and give it to Harris to be announced publicly.

After getting Raka's approval, Harris immediately carried out their plan.

With this, all the problems ended with the engagement between Raisa and ivan.

The childhood friends turned to lovers made everyone jealous. They were so touched to read Raisa and Ivan's love story.

Pictures showing Ivan teaching Raisa to play soccer, him running in the field with her on his back or them sitting on a horseback while holding the reins together… Every single frame was enough to melt everyone's heart.

Even after returning to the Atmajaya family, Ivan did not contact Anya, but he still kept in touch with Raka. Every year, he would send birthday gifts to Raisa.

In Raisa's birthday photo, Raka and Ivan stood on Raisa's right and left, showing their close relationship.

Harris immediately announced through the Atmajaya Group's website that Ivan was the deputy CEO of the Atmajaya Group so that his marriage was no small matter.

Nico immediately uploaded it on his social media and congratulated him.

Nico: "Congratulations to my uncle and aunt. I wish you happiness. Childhood love is proof that true love is real."

The Mahendra family immediately followed by announcing the engagement between Raisa and Ivan on their website.

Raisa was very satisfied with this engagement.

At least, it wasn't a marriage. If the man she liked came to her one day, she could cancel the engagement and pursue her own happiness.

Ivan was a good man and would make her happy.

The important thing was that she didn't have to marry Nico.

As for the rumor with Nico and Raisa going to the hotel, the Atmajaya Group explained that Ivan was resting at the hotel and that Raisa and Nico went there to meet him.

In the end, the problem was successfully resolved.

They all decided to have dinner together at the Atmajaya Family house.

Anya felt very uncomfortable to be there. She really wanted to go home, but she still had to get stuck in the dinner.

Meanwhile, Maria dragged her weak body to take care of the food in the kitchen.

"If you are not well, let me take care of it," Imel offered to help, but Maria immediately refused.

"There's no way I'll bother the guests in this house," Maria immediately ordered one of the servants to bring tea for Imel and ignored her offer of help.

Nico was playing chess with Bima while Ivan was sitting in the garden drinking tea. At the same time, Anya and Tara were seen chatting on the sofa.

Once out of the kitchen, Imel felt bored and took the initiative to sit on the sofa.

Seeing her coming from far away, Anya immediately clapped Tara's hand and asked her to go, "Tara, let's go from here."

Tara immediately understood what Anya meant. They got up and walked toward the garden.

Not a single person in the Atmajaya Family paid attention to Imel. In the end, she had no other choice but to sit next to Bima and watch him playing a chess game with his grandson.

"No matter what she does or says, she is still Ivan's biological mother. Why is the Atmajaya Family treating her like this?" Tara asked.

Anya lowered her voice and said, "The death of Aiden's mother may have something to do with her. Currently, Aiden's father still protects Imel. But Aiden is not going to let her live a peaceful life,"

"What do you mean?" Ivan suddenly stood up from his chair and looked at Anya in surprise.

Anya was also surprised to hear Ivan who joined in the conversation. She was speaking to Tara in a very low voice, almost whispering. Plus, she didn't see anyone in the garden.

If she had known Ivan was there, she would never have said it.

Ivan stepped forward and grabbed Anya's shoulder quite hard. "Anya, is it true what you just said?"

Anya looked around, making sure it was safe.

Tara also immediately checked the surroundings and after she confirmed that no one else was there, she nodded.

"Brother Aiden already investigated halfway through, but I don't know why he stopped. Later, he discovered that the night his mother died, one of the servants also disappeared. He suspected that it was the servant who did something to his mother. Assistant Heru brought the servant here, so..." Anya said. 

Then, she continued with caution. "You know the relationship between Heru and your mother. Now, Aiden can't investigate because his father blocked him. I hope you don't side with anyone in Aiden's suspects list. None of them will get anything from the Atmajaya Family. Don't support them," Anya said, reminding Ivan.

She didn't know if Ivan really didn't want to compete with Aiden or was just pretending.

She was afraid that Ivan had only pretended to give in and was waiting for the right opportunity to take down Aiden.

If only Ivan had the guts to not side with his mother who wanted to take all the assets of the Atmajaya Family, he could've been the favorable second son of the Atmajaya Family. And he would have a good relationship with his siblings, nephews and family.

But if Ivan chose to defend his mother, he would forever be labeled an illegitimate child.

Anya couldn't stop thinking, if Ivan took a risk against Aiden to get the Atmajaya Group, how likely would he win?
