Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

"This morning, Aiden lowered the stock price of the Pratama Family's company and bought it. Maybe he'll do it again tonight. Can you help me to persuade him?" Since he could not ask for help from Aiden, Galih decided to ask it from Anya.

"I don't understand business-related matters. I only heard that they wanted to suppress the stock price of uncle's company for three days and then acquire it. I know Aiden, so he wasn't just joking. Apart from that, uncle must also know how Aiden really is. I can't persuade him. It's better if uncle finds a way to fight it as soon as possible," Anya replied with honesty.

Galih slightly narrowed his eyes, thinking about this situation for a moment before finally speaking, "Acquiring a company as big as the one owned by Pratama Family isn't a small matter. It's not easy. As long as you try to block his effort today, I can change the situation,"

Anya said with a faint smile, "Why do I have to help you?"

Galih was silent for a moment before saying a little sadly, "After the accident that happened to your mother, I'm the one who paid for your mother's garden. The money then went to pay her medical expenses. Anya, I'm only asking you this once for a favor,"

"What did you say?" Anya was shocked to hear that. "Isn't that money left by my grandmother?"

"I gave the money to your grandmother. If you don't believe me, I can show you the proof of the transfer. I sent the money to your grandmother and she gave the money to your mother," Galih said. "Anya, I have been managing this company for more than two years recovering. I have put in all my efforts to block this acquisition. If Aiden doesn't succeed, we will both suffer together in the end,"

"If you two are going to suffer losses in the end, why would Aiden do it?" Anya felt that Galih was not telling the truth.

"He wants my garden to give it to you. He also wanted to force Keara to tell her where Nadine is, but my daughter really didn't know. If he wants to buy the land, I can sell it at a cheap price," Galih said generously.

Anya felt really stupid.

She had promised to sell her garden, apart from the vanilla garden, to the Atmajaya Group in October even though her mother didn't wake up.

But now, she just found out that Galih had paid for the land. How could she sell land that had been paid and didn't come from her own money?

In addition, Aiden planned to move all of her crops to Galih's plantation.

Didn't that mean Galih would be the one suffering all the losses in this matter?

But now she could not return the garden to Galih.

It seemed that she had no other choice but to help Galih. Whether Aiden agreed or not was none of her business anymore.

"I really intend to sell the park to Atmajaya Group. Aiden promised to maintain my vanilla garden and help me find land so I could move all the plants. But I had no idea that he wanted to buy your plantation," Anya said with a deep sigh. "I'll try to persuade him,"

"There are pigs around the place. Even though the soil is fertile, the taste of the spices planted there will be impure due to the pollution of their aroma. If you only plant flowers to sell, the land is suitable for you," Galih said. After pausing for a moment, he continued, "I hope you can persuade Aiden to stop. I will help you to find out where Nadine is,"

"I will try to persuade him, but I can't be sure if he will listen to me. Besides, only my mother knows about the money from your help. When she wakes up, I'll let my mother finish it with you. I will not return the money to you, nor will I give the garden to you. Please understand," Anya replied calmly.

"I understand. I don't want you to pay with money or return the garden. I just hope you can think of my friendship and your mother, and help me to persuade Aiden," Galih felt a little embarrassed because he had to ask this help from Anya.

"I am very grateful for your help to my mother. 'll try to talk to Aiden during lunch. I don't know whether he will agree or not, I'll notify uncle again later," Anya said from across the phone.

"No matter what the result, I am grateful because you are willing to help me," Galih replied with a smile.

He knew how prideful Diana was. But it turned out that Diana managed to raise her daughter well. Anya had a sound mind and was very understanding.

Even though Galih was Keara's father, the woman who wanted to steal her husband, she didn't blame Galih for Keara's actions.

Keara should be responsible for her own actions.

What Anya said just made Galih very surprised.

Anya was willing to help him, but she couldn't be sure what Aiden's decision was either, because she respected whatever her husband decided.

No wonder Aiden loved this woman…

On the other hand, Galih felt her daughter was too careless. At first, she split with Aiden to get engaged to his brother. After that, she wanted to return to Aiden and intended to leave Ivan. She even took Nadine to a remote forest so they had an accident like this.

In addition, after she survived the accident that happened to her, she refused to return and instead study perfumery abroad.

Keara always thought of herself. She purposely didn't come home even though her decision made everyone worry about her.

It was clear that she had misunderstood the Atmajaya Family's opinion of Nadine. Even though Nadine was only an illegitimate child, she was also part of the Atmajaya Family.

The Atmajaya Family would do everything they could to find Nadine's whereabouts.

Currently, Galih could only hope that Anya would succeed in stopping Aiden.

After the call ended, Anya approached Harris as if nothing had happened. The chefs who made their dishes were putting their orders in a box.

"Madame, what did Mr. Galih say?" Harris asked worriedly.

"He asked me to have Aiden pity him a little. As long as Aiden is not working tonight, they can turn the situation around," Anya replied.

"Did you answer according to my suggestion?" Harris asked again.

"Yes. But he still hopes that I can persuade Aiden. He said he was doing his best to protect his company and that Aiden would also suffer a loss in the end. I hope Aiden will consider it," Anya turned and looked at the people who were looking at her. "When I work at this company, where will I eat?"

"Master has arranged a dining area for the seniors. You don't need to eat with these people. Don't pay attention to what they say," Harris tried to comfort her.

Anya just nodded.

Harris accompanied Anya to bring Aiden's food and then went to lunch. Only Aiden and Anya were in Aiden's office.

Anya took out their food from the plastic bag and put it on the table.

"Are you busy this afternoon?" Aiden finally finished reading all the documents provided by Harris and lifted his head.

"I heard that last night you worked until morning. I will accompany you to sleep for a while. After waking up, you can continue to work and I'll go visit my mother," Anya said while setting their dining table.

Knowing that Anya intended to go to the hospital, Aiden immediately volunteered. "Do you want me to accompany you?"

"No need. I'll just talk to my mom for a bit. You better finish your work," Anya said with a smile.

Aiden narrowed his eyes and looked at Anya. "Did Harris tell you not to let me leave my job?"
