"Auntie also comes from a simple family. But her relationship with my uncle is very happy," Nico said openly in front of Anya.

Anya looked at Nico silently. Her mouth suddenly stopped moving from chewing rice. Her body immediately stiffened.historical

She did not know why the conversation was now on her.

Maria's face looked pale for a moment. She couldn't answer Nico's words.

"If you have the ability to marry the woman you love, no one will stand in your way. But you just don't have the ability. You're also too stupid to hurt your aunt's heart by telling her about her family background," Aiden rose to his feet with a grim face. He walked towards Anya and pulled her from her seat to go upstairs.

Even Anya didn't have time to finish breakfast. The rice in her mouth was still there, but her appetite was gone.

At the dining table, Maria and Nico could only look at each other. They heard the sound of the bedroom's door on the second floor slamming loudly.

"Nico.. You can't say something like that without thinking about it first," Maria looked at her son angrily. "Quickly finish your meal and apologize to your uncle and aunt."

"I'm not wrong. Why can uncle marry aunt, but I can't marry Tara?" Nico asked in disapproval.

"Your uncle's marriage is full of problems. You know for yourself how your uncle's journey, from Keara, Natali, and in the end he was able to marry Anya. He didn't desire to have a relationship with Keara nor did he want to be engaged to Natali. But he did it for this family. Anya is the only woman he chooses. Do you know what your uncle did to marry your aunt? Can't you see his struggles over the years? Then, what have you done to deserve all of that?" Maria firmly scolded him.

Nico lowered his head in embarrassment. He saw his uncle's struggles and efforts when faced with hardships. He saw it with his own eyes.

Aiden was the youngest son of the Atmajaya Family. His two older brothers were amazing, especially Nico's father Ardan. If only Ardan hadn't died, Aiden probably wouldn't need to go through all this.

Ardan was extremely skilled in business. Unfortunately, his health was not good enough that he had to die at a young age. This caused Aiden to step in.

Ardan's death was an opportunity for Imel and Ivan, so Aiden would not let his brother's hard work go to waste.

The feud between Aiden and Ivan continued. Even though Bima spoiled Imel, with Aiden's ability, Imel still couldn't beat him.

Aiden forced Ivan to move overseas, while Aiden took over the Atmajaya Group headquarters.

At the same time, Aiden was also able to control all of the situation because the people in the overseas branch were Aiden's own choice and confidante.

After receiving a warning from his mother, finally Nico could think clearly.

Meanwhile in their room upstairs, Aiden's face looked grim. He was trying to hold back his anger.

"Don't be angry. What Nico said was true. I really.."

"Anya, I won't let you look down on yourself or let someone question my ability to judge you. Marriage is not a business. I'm not investing. I want to be with the woman I love and live comfortably. You are the woman of my choice," Aiden interrupted.

Anya's heart immediately melted at the answer. She muttered, "Am I the woman you love?"

"Hmm..." Aiden said, nodding.

'Is it true that I am the only woman you love, Aiden? Then why did I see your lips touch another woman's lips?'

The question was already on the corners of Anya's lips, but she could not ask it.

..

After taking a shower, Aiden stood in front of his dressing room and looked at all his shirts while frowning.

"What's wrong? Can't you find clothes that suit you?" Anya asked.

Aiden didn't answer. Today, he would go to the Tedjasukaman Family house to accompany Anya. He didn't go to work so he didn't want to wear his formal clothes.

"Do you want to wear a t-shirt and jeans to look more relaxed?" Anya asked.

"Hmm.." Aiden always dressed like an elite businessman. But it seemed that his formal attire was not suitable to accompany Anya to her family home.

"Wait a minute," Anya quickly went down to the first floor.

Seeing Anya descending in a hurry and out of breath, Maria looked worried. "Anya, what's wrong?"

"Sis, I'll explain later," Anya grabbed Nico by the collar and dragged him upstairs. "Nico, don't eat now. It's time for you to make up with your uncle. Come with me quickly,"

Nico immediately stood up straight and said, "Auntie, thank you. I really didn't do it on purpose. I didn't mean.."

"Stop talking! Hurry up to your room. I need a t-shirt and jeans," Anya was too lazy to listen to Nico's explanation. She could understand why Nico said that and it was true what Nico said, she came from a small family background. So she didn't really think about it.

"Uncle wants to use a t-shirt and jeans to go to the Tedjasukmana family's house?" Nico's eyes widened.

"He wants to try it. If he likes the clothes he borrowed from you, he may forgive you for your mistake earlier," Anya said.

"Okay. I will lend my best clothes to uncle!" Nico replied.

Anya looked at all of Nico's jeans and chose the simplest one, without any rips or embellishments. Then, she chose a white t-shirt with small black writing that was not too flashy.

Then, she frowned. How about shoes?

"Do you have white shoes? The new one?" Anya asked.

"No. But uncle has a lot of shoes, including sneakers that go well with jeans," Nico said.

Anya nodded. "Quickly take this and follow me,"

Nico brought the T-shirt and jeans that Anya chose and followed her to Aiden's room. At that time, Aiden was on the phone with someone.

Hearing footsteps from behind his back, Aiden turned and saw Nico coming with a cold gaze.

Aiden also saw Nico's 'treasure' in his hands.

Anya looked hopefully at Aiden. Her small eyes seemed to tell Aiden to try on Nico's clothes.

White t-shirt, light blue jeans, the last time he wore such clothes was when he was still in college.

"Get ready quickly. I will go to the Tedjasukmana Family house and come back to the office this afternoon," Aiden said on the phone. After that, he hung up the phone and looked at Anya. "Do you want me to wear this shirt?"

"Yeah! Try it!" Anya looked at him with a smile.

"Uncle, you will look younger in a t-shirt and jeans," Nico said, trying to praise his uncle so that Aiden would forgive him.

"Are you saying that I'm old?" Aiden snorted.

Nico instantly panicked and then tried to explain, "No, no. My most handsome and cool uncle. How can you be called old?"

Aiden just rolled his eyes. "Bring it here!" Although he was reluctant, he finally decided to wear the clothes because he knew Anya had chosen them.

Nico immediately gave the clothes to Aiden anxiously. Then he went and waited outside the changing room with Anya.

After a few minutes, Aiden walked out of the changing room...
