Novel Bin Chapter 493 - Belongings
Aiden pressed the bridge of his nose, hoping to ease the burden on his mind. Then he said bitterly, "I never thought of that."
"But that\'s what you did..." Anya whispered in a low voice. She felt like she was exhausted. However, her tears were still flowing somehow. "I love you very much and hope that our relationship can last. But in the end, I can\'t have you,"
"Anya..." when he heard Anya\'s voice faltering a little, Aiden knew she was crying.
His heart was broken too, devastated and would never be able to return as a whole again.
He wanted to hug Anya and protect her. He wanted to say how much he loved Anya. He wanted to say how devastated he felt when their child died.
He wanted to say that he regretted everything…
Aiden blamed himself for not realizing that something had happened and couldn\'t save Anya in time.
Three DNA test results had crushed his hopes.
So when Bima said that Maria\'s child had a birthmark on her chest and asked Aiden to see it in person, Aiden was easily fooled.
He seemed to have new hope, not knowing that hope was just a mere emptiness.
Plus, Harris called hum from Hong Kong saying that Nadine didn\'t keep her promise and didn\'t show up.
All his hopes had been crushed. No photo of the birthmark, no Nadine to be a witness.
Apart from giving Anya freedom, what else could Aiden do for Anya?
"Get out of here..." Anya\'s voice sounded tired.
Aiden stood at the door for a long time. He leaned against the door, listened to the sound of sobs from inside and closed his eyes.
"Sir, would you like to come in?" The guard at the door asked.
Aiden shook his head. He turned and walked toward the elevator.
From morning, Tara was so busy that she finally got all her work done by lunchtime.
"Anya, have you eaten? I\'ll be there now," Tara said from the phone.
"I have eaten. You must be tired after a busy day. Don\'t come here. Just rest. Don\'t worry about me," Anya said.
"Okay, then you rest. I will bring you sweet potatoes tonight."
"Hmm..." Anya muttered.
After ending the call, Tara went to her break room and called Nico.
Nico had just finished work and was about to eat lunch. When he saw Tara calling him, he immediately picked up the call without waiting long.
"Tara, are you resting? You miss me, don\'t you?" Nico teased.
Tara rolled her eyes and said, "Nico, help me."
"I\'ll do anything for you. I will even climb mountains too…" Nico would really fight for anything for Tara. But he said jokingly so as not to make the atmosphere awkward.
"Go to Anya\'s house and get all her stuff," Tara said.
Nico was silent for a moment. "Alright. I\'ll be there this afternoon."
"Anya said she already tidied up all her belongings and kept them in a suitcase in her room. If you can\'t find it, ask Mrs. Hana."
Nico ended the call and immediately looked for Aiden.
In front of Aiden\'s office door, Jenny was completely out of sight. It looked like she already left for lunch. Nico knocked on the door and went inside without waiting for an answer. Aiden was sitting facing the window daydreaming.
"Uncle, Tara told me to take auntie\'s stuff. Can I go to your house to pick it up this afternoon?" Nico asked on purpose.
"Anya is still weak. After being discharged from the hospital, it will be better if she stays home first. You don\'t have to take her stuff now," Aiden answered expressionlessly.
Nico cleared his throat softly. "Uncle, she said she didn\'t want to go back to that house after being discharged from the hospital."
"I can\'t leave her alone," Aiden said with difficulty.
"Tara said, auntie often looked out the window with a blank gaze. She said she wanted to die. I think we should respect her request. She can do whatever she wants. Don\'t force her," Nico said.
Aiden hit the table hard. "Did you hear what you just said?! How dare you!"
"Uncle, don\'t be angry with me. My mom is guilty. If grandfather didn\'t force her, how could she possibly dare to do such a cruel thing? Everything has happened. In my opinion, it\'s better to give what she wants. Give her back her freedom," the only thing Nico could do at this point was trying to persuade Aiden.
Aiden\'s deep eyes were still on Nico, as if he were considering his suggestion. He didn\'t know what he could do for Anya at this time.
"Tell Mrs. Hana," after considering it, Aiden finally gave up.
"Tell Mrs. Hana to deliver the stuff to the hospital?" Nico asked, trying to confirm it once again.
"Don\'t show your face. Anya doesn\'t want to meet anyone from our family," Aiden said.
"And one more uncle, can you pull out all your bodyguards at the door? I know you just want to protect her, but can you do it discreetly or from afar? Letting big men stand at the door will make her even more confined and depressed," Nico said.
"Get out of here!" Aiden shouted.
"Uncle, I\'m serious. Your bodyguard makes her feel like she\'s in prison. You…"
Without waiting for Nico to finish his sentence, Aiden picked up the document on the table and threw it away.
"Uncle, I don\'t know anything. I didn\'t do anything either. Don\'t take your anger out on me," Nico said, avoiding the throw.
"If you are involved, do you think you can still stand in front of me?" Aiden\'s handsome face was icy cold. If his eyes could kill people, maybe everyone in the Atmajaya Family would be dead.
"Think about what I said. I\'ll go first," after leaving Aiden\'s office, Nico immediately called Tara.
In the evening, Hana went to the hospital to visit Anya while carrying her things.
"Anya, do you feel better now?" Hana opened the door and saw Anya sitting on the bed looking at the window again.
When she heard a familiar voice, Anya turned her head slowly. As soon as she saw Hana\'s figure, her tears streamed down without stopping.
"Mrs. Hana..." she called in a weak voice. Her voice sounded choked.
"Don\'t cry, Anya. Don\'t cry..." Hana put down Anya\'s suitcase that she was carrying and immediately hugged her gently.
Anya threw herself in Hana\'s arms, crying even louder.
In this helpless moment, Anya hoped that her mother would hug her and comfort her. But she held back because she felt that her mother\'s current treatment was much more important.
Anya was always concerned about others, except for herself.
But this time, she couldn\'t take it anymore. Her heart hurt so much. It\'s so painful, so hurt…
"Anya, you have suffered so much. Don\'t cry. Look what I have brought for you," Hana wiped the tears on Anya\'s face with her hand.
"Mrs. Hana, did you bring all my stuff? Does Aiden know?" Anya asked.
"Aiden doesn\'t know. He asked me to clean your room and prepare medicine for you. He told me to wait for you to come home from the hospital and take care of you at home," Hana replied.
