Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

"Aiden, what exactly are you planning to do?" Anya asked while glaring at her husband.

"What do you want to know?" Aiden asked Anya in return.

"We just arrived, but you told Raka that we've been in this hotel since this afternoon. Now, you want to invite him to have dinner together. You want to prove to Raka that we have left the city since this afternoon. The next time Natali wants to report that we kidnapped her, you want to use Raka as an alibi. Am I right?" Anya muttered.

Aiden just nodded. "He said he would be here soon," he did not expect Raka to agree to have dinner with them.

Anya looked around nervously. "If Raka asked where we went this afternoon, what should I answer?"

"It's up to you," Aiden said calmly.

"I'm not as smart as you. What if I mess up?" Anya was worried.

"There is a horse ranch to the west of this hotel. Many visitors to this hotel go there. In the eastern part, there's a grand park where you can take a walk around it. Earlier, we came from the south where there is a garden and a bicycle rental place. There is also a lake for fishing. If Raka asked, let's say that we spent our time fishing and cycling around the lake this afternoon," Aiden said, explaining the situation around them.

Anya laughed at her husband's explanation. "No wonder you aren't nervous at all. Turns out you've been here. Fishing and cycling. Alright, I'll remember it,"

"He's coming," Aiden saw Raka coming from across him so he immediately whispered, warning Anya.

Anya immediately got up and sat beside Aiden. As soon as he arrived, Raka sat in front of Aiden and Anya.

His hands stopped for a moment while holding the chair he was currently sitting on. Anya was just sitting in this place.

Aiden saw all of this in a very slow motion. He knew that Raka still couldn't forget his wife.

"Raka, it's rare for us to meet on vacation. That's why I invite you to have dinner and drink together. Am I disturbing your rest?" Aiden asked while glancing slightly at his wife.

Anya was silent for a moment, feeling a little bit confused because she didn't understand what her husband's gaze meant.

Aiden stroked Anya's head gently and said, "Help me pour the wine for Raka,"

"Ah!" Anya immediately looked a little embarrassed. She poured wine for Raka, then Aiden and finally for herself.

Seeing Aiden not commenting, Anya could tell that she was pouring the wine in the right order. Raka was their guest so she poured the wine for him first. Then, she poured wine for Aiden because Aiden was her husband.

Aiden ordered a fair amount of kebabs and yakitori, as if knowing that someone would join their dinner. The food in this restaurant was quite expensive compared to other restaurants, but all the ingredients used were fresh.

In this place, there were gardens and rice fields to produce vegetables. Fresh fish could also be brought directly from the lake.

This restaurant was supposed to close at half past twelve. There was only a pair of guests in the restaurant, but the owner was reluctant to close the restaurant because he was too busy looking at their handsome and beautiful guests.

"I'll pay you all overtime," the owner said, yawning. "Ask them what they want to order,"

"There are lots of mosquitoes outside. The three of them were so handsome and beautiful. If they eat outside, their faces can become swollen from mosquito bites," said one of the servants.

"Sir, we are willing to work overtime without pay. We are also happy to be able to serve this table."

"They are very beautiful and handsome. Are they celebs?"

"The two people sitting next to each other seem to be lovers. But the man before them also looked at the woman with a look full of love. I think that guy likes her too."

"Wow. That woman is very lucky to be loved by two handsome men."

"Why should she sit in that place? Why not me?" One of the waitresses said, feeling jealous.

The owner just laughed as he took his bag. Then, he said before leaving. "Don't forget to lock the door. Don't be jealous of other people. Don't you see how beautiful that woman is?"

The waitress immediately pursed her lips. Even though she was jealous, she had to admit that Anya was truly beautiful.

The owner then approached their table and said, "Our restaurant should be closed. But it looks like you have come a long way. We will extend our opening hours to two in the morning. You can eat and drink while relaxing,"

"Thank you. We will pay more," Aiden said.

Anya looked at Aiden in surprise. The restaurant owner approached them to say goodbye. It turned out that this restaurant was still open only to serve the three of them.

Of course they had to pay extra for the servants who were willing to work overtime.

As soon as Aiden said he was willing to pay the waiters, the restaurant owner was delighted. "You are very kind. Thank you,"

"Forgive us. We didn't know that…" Anya looked at the servants uneasily.

"It's okay. We are willing to work into the night. Some hotel guests also call us when they need something sometimes," said one of the waiters.

They hadn't seen a guest that resembled a celeb in a long time. They didn't mind working overtime without pay. What's more, there seemed to be hot gossip between these three guests.

"Enjoy your time," said the owner of the restaurant before leaving.

The kindness of the owner made Anya's mood better.

Aiden and Raka were talking about property and land. Meanwhile, Anya was not interested in land prices, house prices, building materials prices and so on. After that, their conversation got heavier, discussing the global economy, the financial crisis and inflation…

'As I expected, if two businessmen sat together, they would discuss 'heavy' topics in their conversation,' Anya was bored because she didn't know what to do. She could only eat, eat and continue to eat…

After talking for a long time, Anya was no longer nervous because Raka didn't ask where they had gone this afternoon. Anya felt Raka didn't want to know where they had gone to keep things between them from turning awkward.

After eating, Anya took her wine glass on the table. But when she wanted to drink, Aiden snatched her wine and replaced it with a glass filled with mineral water.

Although Anya was reluctant, she did not dare to fight back and follow what her husband said.

In fact, Anya really liked this restaurant's wine because it was a specialty made in this region. However, Aiden always got in her way when she wanted to drink.

Every now and then, Anya took Aiden's glass and drank it when Aiden was off guard…

However, nothing could be missed from Aiden's eyes. "Don't be naughty. This wine is delicious, but the alcohol is also quite high. Don't drink anymore," he kept his wine glass away from Anya.

He didn't sound like scolding or blaming Anya for it. Instead, his words sounded full of affection.

Anya's face flushed with embarrassment. She was caught wanting to take Aiden's wine in front of Raka and Aiden immediately rebuked her.

Raka even chuckled when he saw it. 

"I didn't think that you could act like this," he said with a laugh.
