BXBX NOVEL Chapter 341 - Confession
Seeing Deny\'s increasingly unsightly face, Bima pretended to reprimand Nico out of courtesy. "Nico, is that how you talk to parents? Stand beside Ivan,"
Nico walked over to Ivan\'s place, leaned on the arm of the sofa and asked Ivan, "Uncle, was Uncle Deny really this insolent before?"
"I don\'t know. But I know that he loved Natali more than Anya from a long time ago," Ivan whispered.
"Nico is the first grandson of the Atmajaya Family. I\'ve always spoiled him since he was little so he was a little bit careless. Don\'t take it personally," Bima said. He said it as if reprimanding Nico, but his tone was too relaxed as if what Nico said was normal.
"But it is true that we bought it at market price and did not take advantage of you. The reason the Tedjasukmana Family was able to rise from its downturn was because of the help from our family, because your daughter is engaged to my son. But your daughter should have realized what she did to thwart her engagement to Aiden… "
Bima didn\'t explain in detail, but everyone in the room, apart from Ivan, knew what had happened.
"It\'s true. But now not many people know that my family and yours are united, because not many people out there know that Anya is the eldest daughter of the Tedjasukmana Family. Some have also said that my daughter is just a substitute for the Pratama Family\'s daughter. I love my daughter and want my daughter to have the best," Then, Deny continued while putting on as genuine a face as possible. "Anya didn\'t grow up with me. She has suffered since childhood. Therefore I don\'t want her to be treated unfairly like this,"
"Uncle Deny, Anya\'s mother is still in the hospital and cannot attend the wedding. Don\'t you feel sorry for her mother? After all, Aiden and Anya don\'t want a party," Maria said from beside Bima.
Bima didn\'t say anything but looked at her with satisfaction, as if he wanted Maria to continue talking.
Seeing that Bima did not oppose her words, Maria continued, "We also intend to protect your dignity because you can\'t give a proper wedding gift for your eldest daughter. Aren\'t you going to be a butt for outsiders? The second daughter of the Tedjasukmana Family was engaged and gifted a land. So when the eldest daughter got married, of course she had to get a better gift. But can you give it?"
"Uncle Deny only has one land left, but he has two daughters. Isn\'t it obvious who he cares more about?" Nico said on purpose.
"Nico, don\'t be like that. Since Uncle Deny has come to our house, he must have had other plans," Maria said with a smile. Her words were heard as she was defending Deny, but in reality she was sarcastically teasing him.
"The land has been sold to Mahendra\'s company and the procedure is underway. After getting the money, I will give Anya a wedding gift," Deny said. "Anya\'s mother is still sick. When the wedding party is held, my wife can..."
"Anya, do you agree that Deny\'s wife will replace your mother at the wedding?" Bima didn\'t let Deny finish his sentence and immediately interrupted his words.
Anya thought about what Mona had been doing to her all this time. How could she let Mona come to her wedding to represent her mother?
Did Deny think she\'s crazy and had no brains?
Plus, Deny had come today to demand their wedding party but it was not for Anya\'s good. He did all this so that Aiden would let Mona go on the ground that they were in-laws.
"Aiden and I are still busy. We don\'t intend to hold events. There is no need to use my marriage as an excuse to free your wife," at times like this, Anya could not treat Deny as warmly as before.
"What\'s the problem?" Bima pretended not to know what happened.
"My father needed kidney surgery. Actually, Natali had already done the test and their kidneys matched, but the Tedjasukmana Family didn\'t want to let their beloved daughter suffer. So Mrs. Mona kidnapped me and took my blood by force. It is certain that the person who did it was Mrs. Mona," Anya said in front of everyone with a flat face.
Bima\'s face immediately looked scary when he heard this. He rebuked Deny loudly, "They are both your daughters. How can you treat them differently? What kind of father are you? Next time, the Atmajaya family will take care of Anya. You don\'t need to interfere in Anya\'s life anymore,"
"But we are in-laws…"
"Who wants to have in-laws like you? When Aiden and Natali\'s engagement ended, our family had nothing to do with yours anymore. Plus, after Anya\'s mother divorced you, you never did your job as a father. Don\'t interfere in Anya\'s life anymore. And as for your wife, who gave her such courage that she dared to touch my daughter-in-law?" Bima roared loudly.
Deny stood there stiffly, clearly not expecting things to turn out this way.
"Uncle Deny, Anya and Natali are your daughters. You should treat them equally. Are you looking down on the Atmajaya Family when you prefer Natali? When you would rather sell the land to the Mahendra family than to us…" Maria\'s voice sounded cold.
"Waiter, please escort the guest out," Aiden did not care about Deny anymore.
Deny thought Natali would soon marry Raka and become part of the Mahendra family. To please the Mahendra Family, he sold his land for 500 million cheaper than the real price.
"Mr. Deny, let me take you!" One of the servants rushed over and approached Deny. Deny looked like he wanted to say something, but in the end he could only shut his mouth.
After Deny left, Anya took the initiative to approach Bima and bowed in front of him deeply.
"What are you doing?" Bima was a little surprised to see it.
"I\'m sorry I made it difficult for everyone because of my family problems," Anya said regretfully.
Aiden looked at his father deeply. It was clear that he had no intention of helping his father get out of this awkward situation.
Bima looked at Anya who apologized sincerely in front of him.
This girl was even willing to sign a letter of agreement to be with her son. Bima didn\'t want to prolong the problem and waved his hand. "Forget it. This is not your fault. Are you alright?"
Anya was touched by Bima\'s concern. "I am fine. Thank you for worrying about me,"
"I heard from Harris that you have agreed to sell your land?" Bima asked.
"Yes. My mother said that the land should be a gift to me and I shouldn\'t ask for money from my husband\'s family. But since it turned out that the money used to buy the land belonged to someone else, I had to return it to that person. So…"
"You and your mother can only depend on each other. The land is very valuable. We will never take it for free. We will follow the existing procedure and I will pay the price for the land," Bima said.
For the first time, Anya felt that Bima was not that bad. At least, he was a reasonable person, unlike her father…
"Dad, you must be tired and thirsty. I\'ll get your tea," Maria took the cup and teapot filled with hot tea, but after that she gave it to Anya. "Pour the tea for father," she winked at Anya.
Anya was silent for a moment and unconsciously looked at Aiden to ask her husband\'s opinion. She did not know whether Bima had recognized her as his daughter-in-law and she did not want to be overly confident about it. What if Bima still hated her?
Aiden nodded his head slightly, giving support to Anya to pour the tea to his father.
"Oh! Grandfather will drink the tea from his new daughter-in-law!" Nico teased from the sidelines, trying to break the ice.
Ivan saw that Anya\'s hands were trembling a little while holding the teapot. Seeing her nervousness, Ivan immediately tried to make the atmosphere less stressful. "Congratulations, dad!"
Seeing the timid Anya, Bima knew that Anya didn\'t dare approach him until he gave his permission.
But everyone in the room supported her. Even Ivan, who had been silent, also helped Anya to speak. Bima didn\'t want to embarrass Anya any more.
He cleared his throat softly, trying to hide his awkwardness. "Why don\'t you come closer? I want to drink the tea."
