BXBX NOVEL Chapter 558 - Proposing
"I\'m not worried at all. Perfume competition requires skill, not personality. It doesn\'t matter what kind of person I am in their eyes. The important thing is my skill in making perfume," Anya calmly said.
Her old self would\'ve been too busy to think about what other people thought of her.
But she realized that no matter what she did, she would not be able to please everyone.
Then why should she think about other people\'s feelings?
Some people would hate her, like it or not.
Now, Anya didn\'t care at all. As long as it didn\'t harm her, Anya wouldn\'t care what those people thought and said about her.
Nico nodded. "It\'s true what auntie said. This competition is all about one\'s abilities."
Anya smiled and lowered her head, continuing to enjoy the dinner Hana had prepared.
While eating, her mind drifted back to when they were on vacation yesterday. They had just returned home, but Anya already missed their vacation on the island.
They only spent three days on the island, but those three days were enough for Anya to recall all the joys in her life.
Those three days made her feel like she was back in her previous life, the happiest moments in her life.
Those three days made her feel like she was loved again by Aiden.
Although she could also see irises from the window of this house, the beach and the ocean added to the beauty of the irises on the island. She could feel the sea breeze sweeping her face, making her feel calm.
There was no problem, no more right and wrong. There was only peace and happiness ...
There was only the beach sand that sparkled like jewels ...
There were only shadows of coconut trees dancing under the sun...
There was only sea water that was clear as glass ...
After dinner, Anya told Aiden that she wanted to go back to her house.
"Uncle, I\'m also going home. Let me take my aunt home," Nico winked at Anya.
"You must be tired. Get some rest, I\'m going home. Thanks for the three days. I really enjoyed that vacation," Anya said as she looked carefully at Aiden.
Without saying anything, Aiden stood up and immediately went upstairs.
Nico looked at his uncle worriedly and whispered to Anya, "Auntie, why don\'t you just stay here tonight?"
"Staying today? Then what about tomorrow? And the next day? I better go home... " Anya said in a low voice.
Aiden\'s body stiffened at Anya\'s words. From the start, Anya had wanted to get away from him and avoid him.
In the last three days, Aiden had been trying to win Anya\'s heart so that she would come back to him. And still, he couldn\'t make her stay.
Anya wanted to get away from him...
As soon as he saw Aiden leave and disappear from the stairs on the second floor, Nico could only sigh with relief. Without Aiden\'s approval, he finally dared to take Anya away from there and drive her home.
On the way home, Nico couldn\'t help pleading. "Auntie, my family really wronged you two years ago, but we were also cheated. When you were pregnant, Grandpa was really happy and even hummed children\'s songs sometimes. My mother even bought baby\'s clothes and a crib," said Nico. "To protect you, we dare not tell you the truth. You haven\'t visited the Atmajaya Family house after you returned here, right? Whenever you have time, please come over to the house,"
Nico looked like he wanted to say something, but he stopped talking.
"Why should I come to that place..." Anya whispered.
"Grandpa built a playground in his garden for your child. On the second floor, there is a special place that will be used for your children\'s room and play area. Grandpa built it two years ago, before the news destroyed us all. The entire Atmajaya Family was ready to welcome the little angel. But in the end, we had to decide to let the child go based on the three DNA test results, because we didn\'t want anything bad to happen to the child. We were afraid that something would go wrong with the test, we did it three times, but the results were all the same…" Nico\'s voice grew lower.
Anya could feel her eyes getting hotter. She lifted her head and took a deep breath, but tears still fell on her face.
"Auntie, uncle loves you so much. He is not someone who easily falls in love But once he loved a person, he would love them for life. And that is no one but you, auntie. You\'re the only one for him. If you don\'t want to come back to him, maybe my uncle will die alone," Nico continued when he saw Anya keep silent.
"I promised him I would give an answer after the competition ended," Anya answered.
"Oh," Nico immediately got the idea.
It was March and the perfume competition would be held in May. There were still two months left.
He would devise some plan so that his uncle could reclaim his aunt\'s heart. He didn\'t want his uncle to die alone. Wouldn\'t that be really sad?
"How is your relationship with Tara? Now that all the problems and misunderstandings about me are clear, Tara doesn\'t have to worry anymore. What happened to me will not happen to her. You should get married as soon as possible. You are getting old," Anya said. "If it continues like this, you might die alone."
Nico pursed his lips when he heard Anya use his words to fire back at him.
It was true that karma did exist…
"Tara is 27 and I am 28. If we get married now, I\'m sure we can have children before the age of 30," Nico said, considering it. "I\'ll propose to her soon."
When she heard that Nico intended to propose to Tara, Anya was also happy. All this time, she felt guilty for ruining Tara and Nico\'s relationship.
According to her, Tara and Nico were meant to be together.
But because of the tragedy that happened to her, Tara became doubtful about her relationship with Nico and chose to run away.
Tara was afraid that she would experience the same misery as Anya so she immediately decided to end her relationship with Nico.
Now, everything was clear…
What happened two years ago was a misunderstanding.
A big misunderstanding that happened because of one person. Keara Pratama…
A misunderstanding that Anya wouldn\'t just let go easily.
"I will be a witness on your happy day," Anya said with a smile.
"I will tell you when I will propose to her. If Tara hesitates, auntie has to help me. Actually, I was worried that Tara would reject me so I didn\'t dare to propose to her," Nico pretended to look sad to gain Anya\'s sympathy.
