"Aiden, Is Anya still blaming me? She must have been very sad when she found out that I loved her sister more. I am sorry. I'm embarrassed to meet her and the kids…" Galih couldn't continue his sentence anymore.
Aiden stopped walking and turned at Galih who looked pathetic. "Keara is a wound that Anya will never be able to heal. If you really feel guilty and sorry, come to Arka and Aksa's birthday party."
Aiden came out of there with a pounding heart. He felt that this world was truly immeasurable.
Galih would never have thought that one day, he would end up in prison.
Keara also didn't think that all her actions could make her and her family suffer in this hell of a world.
For Aiden, all of this is a consequence of their actions. Galih and Keara didn't deserve anyone's sympathy because they did it all to themselves!
Unlike him, Anya still had a soft spot for Galih. She cared for their bond as a father and daughter as she never experienced such in childhood. Anya also hoped that Galih could attend Arka and Aksa's birthday party.
Had it not been for Anya's request, Aiden would never have come to visit Galih in prison.
…
On October 25, Arka and Aksa's grand birthday party was held. All this time, everyone knew that Nico was the only grandson of the Atmajaya Family. However, now, two more handsome grandsons have been added to the Atmajaya Family and this brought everyone great joy.
And there was another reason why the Atmajaya Family held such a big party this time. Bima and Maria planned to introduce Jenny, the youngest daughter of the Atmajaya Family, to potential candidates who would become her future partners.
Anya has made a new business card. Now she had Iris, Iris Perfume Academy and her house's addresses listed there as well.
This birthday party is also an opportunity for her to expand her connections. She invited some of her classmates while she was studying abroad, hoping that some of them would be interested in teaching at her school.
If she wanted Iris to grow, she needed professionals.
In addition, her original perfume must be updated following market trends with new products.
The birthday party for the Atmajaya Family's grandsons was held at one of the hotels under the company's management. The room used for the event was extraordinary, like a palace. Not everyone can be there— only special guests and prominent figures with fame.
This is the first time Arka and Aksa have been seen in public. Previously, when Anya held a birthday party for her two sons, the guests could only see the twins from the screen. Even though Arka and Aksa appeared briefly to cut the cake, none of the guests were able to approach them and see them from a closer distance.
And finally, their full names were publically announced.
Arkana Bima Atmajaya and Aksa Ardan Atmajaya.
Although Galih hoped that one of his grandchildren could get his family's last name to take over the Pratama Group in the future, in the end, all family members decided to let them use Atmajaya as their last name.
Arka and Aksa blew out their birthday candles and all members of the Atmajaya Family stood on the stage for a group photo.
Raisa then asked Ivan silently, "Brother, why do many members of the Atmajaya Family have names starting with A? Will you name our children the same way?"
Since they were standing quite close to Bima, the old man could hear their conversation.
Even though Bima is old, his hearing is still very good. He said with a smile, "What about Adrian Atmajaya? Do you like it, Raisa?"
"Father, I will be depressed if you give me a boy's name. What should I do if I give birth to a girl?"
"I don't mind. I just want to have lots of grandchildren!" Bima said happily.
"Anya has two sons. Do I have to have at least one?" Raisa muttered in a low voice. After becoming Ivan's wife, everyone will compare her with Anya in almost everything, including children.
When he heard people talk about how big his family was, Bima felt very happy. He believes that children bring fortune. He will be very happy if Raisa is willing to give him a bunch of grandchildren!
After cutting the cake, the songs started playing. Many guests began to join hands and enter the dance floor.
Anya looked around and saw her mother sitting alone. She did not expect Galih to actually refuse to come to his grandchildren's first birthday party.
"Mother, why are you sitting here alone?" Anya asked, approaching her.
When Indah saw it, she had a faint smile on her face and smiled. "I'm fine. No need to worry about me.
"Are you sad that dad didn't come?" Anya asked.
Suddenly, Bima approached her in a hurry and said in a quite loud voice, "Anya, your father is coming!"
Anya turned her head and looked towards the entrance of the hall. She saw Galih coming in wearing an elegant suit. His hair looked neat as if it had just been styled today.
"Galih, I was waiting for you to eat this birthday cake together!" Bima greeted him happily.
Even though Galih had made a mistake, Bima's attitude towards him did not change at all. For the sake of his children and grandchildren, Bima is willing to put aside all problems and live in harmony with Galih.
Many people try to hide their mistakes, but in the end, they end up dragging and making trouble for their children.
There are only a few people who can act like Galih. He wants to take responsibility for all the mistakes he made himself.
When Bima greeted him, many of Galih's colleagues also greeted him.
They did not know what had happened to the man and could only speculate that he was only dealing with a tax issue. Recently, tax investigations have become more stringent.
However, the Pratama Group is very wealthy and has the Atmajaya Family as its support. It seemed that this matter would end soon, so no one dared to insult Galih.
Anya took her mother's hand and said, "Mom, are you happy now? Daddy's here!"
Indah laughed. "If he dares to hide from me, I'll scold him as soon as I see him!"
"Sorry I'm late. Something's going on and I have to sort it out. I'm going to see my grandchildren first," Galih said, but everyone there immediately understood what he meant.
Bima came with his two grandchildren and tested him. "Galih, try to tell. Which one is Arka and which is Aksa?"
Galih then looked at his two grandchildren closely. They wore the exact same clothes and hairstyles, right down to the butterflies around their necks. How could he tell them apart?
However, one of them suddenly reached out his hand and wanted to move from Bima's arms to Galih.
"This is Aksa, right?" Galih carried the little boss while laughing.
Aksa laughed happily and kissed his grandfather's cheek.
If Arka and Aksa didn't speak or move, no one would be able to tell them apart. However, their nature is very different.
Arka is calmer and quieter than his brother. Meanwhile, Aksa is more active, chatty and cheerful.
"You really are their grandfather, you can immediately recognize them with one look," Bima laughed.
"Father, you came. Mother has been waiting for your arrival," Anya deliberately said.
"Let me carry Aksa. You, go and dance with your wife!" Bima took Aksa from him with a big smile.
Galih then shifted his gaze at Indah, looking a little embarrassed. "Indah, I'm back."
"You look thin," Indah whispered in a low voice.
"I'm sorry to make you worry," Galih stepped forward and held Indah's hand. The dance songs continued to play and they walked towards the dance floor.
Anya saw Tara not far from her parents. She was pregnant, but she danced with Nico happily.
Then she turned to Aiden and said with a smile, "Mr. Atmajaya, do you want to dance with me?"
