Chapter 82 - The King Of Gossip

Thirty minutes later, Harris knocked on Aiden's study door and entered, "Sir, there is an employee who recorded the conversation between Mrs. and Mr. Raka in the Rose Scent employee room."

Aiden raised his head when he heard Harris's report. His face looked troubled, "This kind of person cannot be near Anya. Buy the tape from him, then report the person to the police." Said Aiden in a cold voice.

Harris could only nod even though he felt confused in his heart. The two orders that Aiden just said were completely contradictory!

Aiden wanted to know what Anya and Raka were talking about in Rose's employee room so of course someone had to record it secretly. But once someone recorded it, Aiden felt that the person was not safe to be around Anya.

His boss really had a complicated personality.

"Sir, is it not better to let that employee stay there? With that, he can help us... " Harris tried to suggest this to Aiden, but Aiden immediately interrupted him.

"No need!" Aiden firmly said.

Harris immediately nodded, following Aiden's orders.

...

During lunchtime, Anya spent her time eating in the clerk's room. She was enjoying her food quietly when suddenly a noise was heard from outside. She quickly cleared her lunch and went out to check the commotion.

Anya saw one of the employees being led away by the police from his shop.

'What has happened?'

Ben turned to face the other employees who were busy discussing this incident and said calmly, "Let's go back to work. Stop talking about it!"

Anya hurried over to Ben, "Manager, what happened?"

"The employee was arrested by the police for violating customer privacy." Ben replied. He felt a little dizzy because it felt like there was so much commotion in his shop today.

Anya looked at all this incident with suspicion. Privacy breach? Who was that customer? Why was there so much happening on her first day of work?

Meanwhile, in Aiden's office, Harris gave Aiden a recording of Anya and Raka's conversation, "Sir, what would you like for lunch?" He asked. The lunch hour was about to pass, but the master had not yet eaten.

"Have you delivered the lunch for Anya?" Aiden asked.

"Yes, sir. Every employee at Rose gets lunch from the caterer. Today's menu is minced beef with oyster sauce, bean sprouts and egg soup." Said Harris. He was used to answering Aiden's questions in detail because he knew that Aiden always wanted to know everything about Anya.

"Hmm ... I want to have the same lunch as her." Aiden said casually.

Harris was stunned to hear Aiden's answer. What did he just hear? The master wanted to eat catering food? That's food for employees…

"Ahem ... Sir, you want to eat the same food as Madame? Family catering?" Harris tried to confirm his doubt. He wanted to make sure his ears didn't trick him.

"Hmm ..." Aiden muttered with a nod. His eyes remained fixed on the documents he was holding.

"Yes sir. I will prepare it." No matter how astonished he was at his boss's orders, Harris would do it right away. He walked out of Aiden's office and called the restaurant company under Atmajaya Group. Not only Harris, the restaurant manager was also confused when he heard Harris's order.

The restaurant in the company was very classy. They provide a variety of food menus from Indonesian food, Japanese food to even Western food. However, who would have thought that Aiden, the president of their company, would order home-cooked dishes for ordinary employees?

After Harris left his office to order lunch, Aiden immediately turned on the recording he got.

...

"Anya, leave Aiden!"

"Aiden is very nice to me. I will not leave it. Raka, we shouldn't meet again. Don't come to this place again."

"I know you need money so you want to marry Aiden. But haven't you ever thought why Aiden would suddenly marry you? I'm sure there must be a conspiracy behind all this."

"I'm an ordinary person who has no property and anything. I'm just a poor girl. What can Aiden get by marrying me?"

"I'll find out what his plan is!"

"Raka, don't make Aiden angry. You can't provoke him. I'm really happy with him."

"Are you worried about me? You even remember that I have an allergy to Mugwort. I know that there is still me in your heart. Three years ago, why didn't you tell me your mother was sick? Why didn't you tell me that you needed money?"

"What is the point? You don't have money."

"I have! I can help you!"

"Your money is your mother's money. You or your mother who gave money, there's no difference to it."

"Not! If I gave you the money, you don't have to break up with me."

"Raka, ever since my mother left the Tedjasukmana Family, we were not meant to be together. Even if your mother doesn't give me money, we'll still be separated."

"Anya, have you ever loved me? Just a little?"

"Not!"

"ANYA!"

"I never loved you, then or now. Go on and don't come back again."

…

After hearing the recording, Aiden's face looked even more serious.

Was what Anya said true?

Was she just lying to herself and making Raka disappointed so that Raka wouldn't come to her again?

Or did Anya do this all to protect Raka from harm? Protecting Raka from Aiden?

Aiden's brows furrowed. His eyes were cold. Raka wanted to investigate the reason why Aiden wanted to marry Anya. How dare that man interfere with his marriage.

It didn't matter! Aiden didn't mind messing with that man!

...

Nico just finished lunch at the company restaurant. As soon as he left the place, he saw Harris carrying a tray of food to Aiden's private elevator.

He immediately followed Harris and peeked curiously. Nico's curiosity was so great that he wanted to find out various things. The matters concerning his Uncle were also an interesting topic for him.

"Harris, is this my uncle's lunch?" He asked. He frowned when he saw the food that was behind the glass serving hood, "My uncle ate this?"

"Yes, sir," Harris replied as he walked into the elevator, "Mr. Nico, please help me press the button for the elevator. Thank you!"

"Minced oyster sauce, bean sprouts, egg soup. This looks like..." Nico pressed the elevator button while looking at Aiden's lunch, "It's aunt's lunch, right?"

"I didn't tell you. You guessed it yourself." Harris said expressionlessly.

Nico laughed when he heard Harris's answer. He patted Harris on the shoulder and said, "Harris, my uncle is really intoxicated, huh?"

Harris remained standing straight, holding the tray calmly, afraid that his master's soup might spill, "Madame is very important to sir."

Nico nodded with a smile at that, "Tonight, I will move to my house. Do you want to accompany me?" Nico asked Harris.

Harris himself lived in one of the buildings in Aiden's house complex. Aiden granted the house to him on the occasion that Harris had worked for 10 years at the Atmajaya Group. After that, Aiden transferred the ownership of the house to Harris.

"Mr Nico, I prefer to stay alone. I need calm." Without thinking, Harris outrightly rejected Nico's offer. His head could explode if he had to listen to Nico's nagging all night long.

"It's sad to be alone. You must be very lonely. Should I introduce a woman to you?" Nico said, teasing Harris.

However, the expression on Harris's face didn't change at all. Much like his nickname, assistant rock, Harris was as rigid as a rock, "Thank you sir. But I already have a woman I like." Harris politely declined.

Nico did not expect to hear the answer come out of Harris's mouth, "What? You have a woman that you like? Who is that?" Nico asked curiously.

Indeed Nico was the king of gossip, and couldn't stand the secret.
