Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

Seconds passed, turning into hours.

"Aiden, you are bad!" Anya said irritably.

The man invited her to make love all night, making her body exhausted. She felt her body go limp and her legs turned into jelly.

"I can't take back my gifts for Arka and Aksa," Aiden continued to show his love for Anya, no matter how many hours had passed.

Over time, Anya's voice became hoarse from moaning too much. Before she fell asleep, she muttered irritably. "You really are the baddest CEO ever."

Aiden smiled at his little wife's complaint.

When he saw that his wife was fast asleep, he immediately covered Anya and kissed her forehead before going to the bathroom.

When he was about to get up, the pain in his knee returned. He didn't know what happened to his leg. Was it because he was too tired?

He rose to his feet while supporting himself with the end of the bed then walked slowly toward the bathroom.

Aiden then got into the bathtub and soaked his knees in hot water, relieving the pain although only a little.

His hand held his hurting knee and felt a bad feeling in his heart.

…

After leaving the bathroom, Aiden immediately called his doctor overseas. He explained all the symptoms that were happening to his knee.

"From the symptoms you mentioned, I think you have osteosarcoma. But for more details, you have to undergo the examination in person."

Aiden's face became serious when he heard that. "What happens if I really have osteosarcoma?"

"In the early stages, your knee will feel pain often. If the condition worsens, the pain will persist, not only at certain times. There can also be swelling in certain areas."

"I'm currently on vacation with my family. How long can I delay the treatment?" Aiden asked.

"If not treated immediately, I'm afraid it can get worse and affect your joints and muscles' performance. I suggest not delaying this treatment. Now that medical science is advanced, the sooner it is treated, the better," said the doctor anxiously.

"Very well. I'll take care of it as soon as possible. Thank you!" Aiden immediately hung up and turned on his laptop to find out about this disease.

Osteosarcoma was a tumor that occured in bone. This disease could be cured through surgery or chemotherapy. The most serious cases of osteosarcoma could even lead to amputation.

Seeing all that information, Aiden didn't want to check his condition. He knew that the doctor could only make assumptions because he did not examine him directly. But he was afraid the results would be bad.

His children were still so young. And so was his wife. He still wanted to be the man they all could rely on.

How could he protect them if he had to amputate his leg?

If he didn't get himself checked, he knew what the possible outcome would be. But he still had hope and that he might just have been tired or have plain arthritis.

But after examining himself, Aiden had no more hope.

He wanted to always protect Anya, be by her side as she grew up to be a beautiful and confident woman.

He wanted to walk beside their two sons, watching them start their own family.

Aiden had a lot of things to do, but he was afraid he couldn't do it.

…

For several weeks, Aiden spent his time on the island with their little family. Their life was very peaceful and calm there.

They walked along the beach, together with Arka and Aksa.

No need to think about work, or anyone.

Aiden felt nothing like his usual self. He felt incredibly calm.

And as he observed, the depression that Anya experienced was also getting better.

Anya kept herself busy every day. Cooking, baking, playing with Arka and Aksa and taking a walk on the beach

Happy days passed very quickly. In the blink of an eye, Valentine's day was coming.

Tonight, Anya cooked steak for Aiden. After two years studying abroad and living alone, Anya was much more independent. She could also cook western dishes.

While eating, Anya asked, "Is there anything in your mind?"

Aiden looked at Anya thoughtfully. After pondering for a moment, the man decided not to tell her about his illness. He didn't want to worry his wife.

"I don't want to go home," Aiden said with a smile.

"But I will have an event in Iris on Valentine's Day. Didn't I promise to meet people on that day? Are you worried for me? Or is there anything else on your mind?" Anya asked.

"I'm not worried. I know you can definitely fight your depression. I'm sure you can improve. During the last few weeks, you looked so happy and I'm so glad that you did." Aiden tried to talk positively to Anya every day.

His wife then nodded and looked at him, "Aiden, if you wake up one day and can't find me, what would you do?"

Aiden was surprised to hear the question. "Anya ..."

"It's just a question. Don't worry, I'm just wondering what will you do if you wake up and don't find me next to you. What will you do if I disappear?" Anya asked with a smile.

"I will look for you, even to the ends of the world," Aiden said seriously. "Don't ever leave me without saying goodbye. I will be very worried."

"I'm not going anywhere. If I go, I will tell you first," Anya nodded.

That night, they refused to let each other go.

However, it seemed that the separation was inevitable.

After Valentine's Day, Aiden would go overseas to have his knee checked. Meanwhile, Anya had planned to leave.

She didn't tell Aiden that her depression was not getting better.

These past few days, she had been trying hard to put a mask on her face. Showing the sweetest smile, without telling her true feelings.

She didn't want Aiden to worry about her.

Since the man thought of something else, he didn't even notice that Anya was just pretending in front of him. He thought Anya had recovered.

But in truth, this only began to eat away at Anya from inside, consuming all her confidence and courage. 

Killing her old self...

…

On Valentine's Day, Iris held an auction for their limited Valentine edition perfume. And the perfume was sold for 100 million rupiah.

Unexpectedly, the person who bought it was Jessica.

When Jessica came to Iris to pay, Anya greeted her with a smile. "Congratulations, Jessica. You have won a limited edition perfume from Iris."

"Thank you. I'm sorry I offended you before. I hope you don't hold a grudge against me," Jessica said politely.

"It's not easy for you to say sorry. I heard that my father and Aiden are going to buy the Hermawan Group. If you buy my perfume at such an expensive price, won't you run out of money?" Anya asked with an innocent face.

Jessica clenched her fists angrily. "Anya, why do we have to compete like this ..."

"Competing? What do I compete with you? Aiden never liked you. I will never consider a woman who Aiden never looked in the eyes for as a rival," Anya interrupted.

For her, Jessica was blinded by her one-sided love. She was blind so she couldn't see that Aiden had absolutely no feelings for her.

Galih and Aiden acquired Hermawan Group not only to relieve Anya's anger, but also for profit.

Now, the Hermawan Group had nothing.

And Jessica didn't matter anymore.

"Anya, don't be complacent just yet. You will see!" Jessica left angrily.
