Chapter 84 - Nadine And Keara

"Nadine is dead." Aiden said, staring at Harris's face.

Harris's face looked sad when he remembered the woman he loved. But he still said sternly, "Sir, I am sure Miss Nadine will return."

"I also hope Nadine will come back." Aiden said quietly, "You can retreat."

"Yes sir." Harris turned and walked toward the door. He closed the door slowly, a sad expression remained on his face. A sorrowful face that would never be erased, until the woman he loved returned one day.

As soon as Harris walked out of his room, Aiden looked at the food on his table. He opened the glass serving hood and the aroma of his lunch immediately spread throughout the room.

Anya ate the same food as him today. But for some reason, Aiden had no appetite.

After Nadine's accident, Bima visited a fortune teller. He did it because all the women in the Atmajaya family suffered the same fate that Bima wanted to know what had really happened.

The fortune teller said that this was the fate of the daughter of the Atmajaya family. Every daughter of the Atmajaya family would experience the same fate. Not dead, but disappeared somewhere.

Maybe Nadine would be fine if she didn't stay at the Atmajaya house. Unfortunately, Ardan brought Nadine back to his family.

There couldn't be a woman in the Atmajaya Family. If Aiden or Nico married and had a daughter, their child could not be raised in the Atmajaya family. It was like a curse on their family.

Harris believed the prophecy, because it proved to have happened for generations. However, he did not believe Nadine had died. He was still waiting and still waiting until now.

But Aiden couldn't believe it like Harris. If Nadine were still alive as said by the fortune teller, then why didn't she come back home?

If Nadine were still alive, then what about Keara? Was it possible that she was alive?

Aiden rubbed his face, massaged his temples which felt dizzy. The memories of the past that blurred in his mind came back to life. Memories filled by his other niece, Nadine.

…

"Uncle, father confiscated my credit card. I want to buy a bag. I'll send you a picture of the bag. Do you want to buy it for me?"

"Uncle, I fell in love with a man but he rejected me. I can't tell Nico. I'm just telling you this. Please heal my broken heart. Buy me a bag, okay?"

"Uncle, I will go wandering in the forest with Sis Keara. Once I come back, I will work at your company and be your assistant. I'm going to take Harris's job."

Those were the last words Nadine said to Aiden. That day, Nadine left and never returned …

The search and rescue team tried to find Nadine and Keara for three months, but they could only find Nadine and Keara's belongings that were already scattered on the ground. They also found Keara's finger. Keara's family held a very simple funeral, using only Keara's remaining fingers.

Then what about the Atmajaya Family? They couldn't even find Nadine's remains at all. They couldn't even hold a funeral for her. The rescue team said it was likely they died from being attacked by wild beasts.

Until now, Harris still believed that Nadine was still alive. He remained at the Atmajaya family house, he kept waiting, until Nadine came back to him.

Nadine, his master's poor niece.

Nadine once asked Aiden why her mother didn't like her and only loved Nico. She never knew that her mother was not her real mother.

Aiden vividly remembered the day the news of Nadine's death was delivered to the Atmajaya family. Her sudden death shocked everyone.

...

After awakening from his reverie, Aiden remembered an important thing. Nadine once said that she confessed to a man but she was rejected. Was that person Harris? Was their love actually mutual?

Aiden immediately called Harris's desk number and wanted to ask him directly. But no one answered.

Finally, he decided to get out of his room and head to Harris's place, finding the place empty.

An inscription on Harris's desk caught Aiden's attention. He didn't intend to peek and intrude on Harris's privacy, but somehow his gaze seemed to be fixated on the writing, a beautifully etched inscription.

Even if disaster ends everything, you are still the beginning of my life. Even though many years have passed, I am still faithfully waiting for you…

Harris was walking to his seat and saw Aiden staring at his desk.

He rushed over and covered the writing that Aiden saw, "This is just my fun. Master will only laugh when reading it."

"Are you the man she loves?" Aiden directly asked.

Harris was stunned for a moment at Aiden's question, but he knew what Aiden meant. His master asked if he was the man Nadine loved. But for him, it was just a dream.

Harris shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Mr. Raka and Miss Nadine have been friends since childhood. If there really is someone she likes, I think it is Mr. Raka." Harris replied, trying to stay strong.

"Nadine likes Raka?" Aiden's eyes were cold and creepy as he said that.

Raka, Raka, Raka…

Why did that man's name always appear? Why did that man always bother Aiden?

Harris felt something was wrong seeing Aiden's expression, "Sir, what's wrong?"

"Three years ago, Raka and Anya loved each other. He refused Nadine's love, but he didn't tell Nico at all." Aiden's face looked grim. He gritted his teeth as if to contain the anger that began to flare when he remembered the figure of his nephew.

"Miss Nadine and Miss Keara went to the forest to look for spices. At that time, they left because they were heartbroken…" Harris looked surprised when he heard Aiden's words.

Aiden was furious. He clenched his fists tightly and shouted loudly, "How dare that guy still be friends with Nico? He still has the face to appear before the Atmajaya Family! He's the one who caused Nadine to die!"

Harris's face looked like he was enduring a very deep pain. However, as Aiden's assistant, he was responsible for calming Aiden down.

"Mr. Raka and Mr. Nico are good friends. They will not harm Miss Nadine. Nobody knows that Miss Keara and Miss Nadine will have an accident in the forest."

"If that man explained it right and didn't break Nadine's heart, would Nadine still go?" Asked Aiden in a cold voice.

Harris couldn't answer it. He had no right to answer because he was nothing. After all, no one knew what really happened three years ago.

"Raka also disappointed Anya at that time. Anya had a hard time because she had to pay for her mother's hospital fees. Finally, Raka's mother gave her money so that she would part with Raka. However, in the end the money was also not accepted by Anya."

Aiden's eyes emitted a cold aura, "All the women who deal with Raka always have bad luck. Doesn't that mean he has a problem? Then, where is the money that Raka's mother gave to Anya?"

Aiden seemed to pour out all the anger he was harboring at that time. He rarely vented his anger in a fiery manner. Usually Aiden harbored his anger in his heart and just looked at everyone coldly.

"Sir, what do you intend to do?" Asked Harris worriedly.
