Anya just stood still while the crowd insulted her. She could understand Raisa's ability to make a fuss. It seemed friendship could make someone similar. Natali and Raisa, they were birds of the same feather. Their behavior was similar. Their rottenness, their cunning traits, and many more.
When she was still in contact with Raka, Raisa always hated her. Raisa belittled her because she felt Anya was not worthy of her brother.
Now, even though Anya didn't do anything wrong, even though Anya didn't seduce Aiden, even though all this was the result of Natali's cunning plan, Raisa still accused her. Raisa insulted her as a cheap woman who seduced Aiden. Raisa obscured reality, making everyone have all sorts of prejudice toward Anya.
Anya couldn't argue. What could she do against these people? She could only stare at them, staring at the eyes that looked at her in disgust and the mouths that continued to insult her.
Her heart ached. Among so many people, not a single person stood up for her.
Harris couldn't get through the crowd. The company entrance was completely crowded and was blocked by many people. But he could hear what everyone was talking about so he could guess that Anya was the one out there.
He immediately took out his cellphone, wanting to contact Aiden. Before he had time to dial Aiden's number, his master walked out of his private elevator.
Harris rushed over to him, "Sir, Miss Raisa stopped Madame outside. Looks like they're fighting."
Hearing everyone insult and corner Anya, Aiden's eyes grew colder. His expression looked so sinister that Harris's body was shaking beside him. He broke through the crowd and rushed over to Anya.
Nico also heard the news about Raisa's arrival and how the woman had insulted Anya at the door of the Atmajaya Group company so he rushed down and helped.
It was not Anya who he wanted to help, because Anya already had her own prince. He only needed to take Raisa out of there so she wouldn't make more trouble in front of his uncle's company.
Nico could see Raisa in the crowd, but Raisa's eyes were on Aiden. Her eyes looked so greedy as if she wanted to devour him.
Aiden also looked at Raisa. However, his gaze was not a kind gaze. Aiden's gaze sent chills down Raisa's spine.
Wasn't Aiden blind? Why did his eyes look as sharp as knives that could just kill her?
Nico immediately grabbed Raisa's hand and dragged her from there, "What do you see? Let's go!"
"Nico! Let go! I don't want to go!" Raisa tried hard to release Nico's hand, but she couldn't. Nico held her tight that she couldn't free herself.
"Don't want to go? Do you really want to die?" Nico dragged Raisa harder and told her to get into the car immediately.
"Nico, are you crazy? Harris called me and asked me to come to this place. I haven't even got to meet Aiden yet!" Raisa tried to open the car's door, but Nico had already locked it.
"You think my uncle really wants to see you? Since when has he been nice to you? This morning, your brother went to meet Anya at work and kept harassing her. My uncle called you to investigate your brother. I will help you to escape!" Nico said irritably.
"What? My brother met Anya today?" Raisa was stunned. She who initially rebelled, now could only be silent.
"If you fall into the hands of my uncle, it's your end!" Nico glanced at the people at the company entrance with pity. It seemed that Atmajaya Group would carry out mass layoffs.
Nico and Raisa took advantage of the chaos to escape from the place. Harris and several security guards, as well as Aiden's bodyguards, rushed forward and prevented the employees who were in the place from escaping. These employees were even busy gossiping during working hours.
"Fire all employees who witnessed this incident!" Aiden's stern voice was like a dagger killing everyone in that place.
Everyone in the place was immediately shocked and could only stare at Aiden, gawking, including Anya. Anya felt her whole body stiffen and her face paled. Because she was publicly humiliated and humiliated by these people, Aiden felt so angry and immediately fired them all.
Anya felt a little anxious seeing the development of this situation.
One of the company managers rushed over to Aiden and apologized. He bowed deeply in front of Aiden. Most of the employees who were there were his subordinates, "Sir, excuse us. Give us one more chance…"
Aiden was not moved at all. He still looked at them all coldly and without feeling, "When everyone is busy working, you insult others without knowing the truth. People like you don't deserve to work at Atmajaya Group. I don't want to see them all again." Aiden said coldly.
"Yes sir!" Harris replied.
Anya looked at Aiden in surprise. Aiden fired all these people because of her.
Aiden turned to look at Anya. However, Anya was unable to return that stare. Even though she was innocent, somehow she felt ashamed as if she had done something disgusting. Maybe all the insults she heard made her feel ashamed of herself. Without realizing it, Anya looked away, not daring to look directly at Aiden.
She was Aiden's wife, but she couldn't do anything about it. She was just a loser who stood still and took all the insults without being able to fight back.
"Do you still want to hide our relationship?" Asked Aiden in a deep voice.
Anya's heart was beating fast. Sweat started to wet her body. Would Aiden announce their marriage this way?
She took a deep breath, calmed her mind and said, "Even though these people don't know that I'm your wife, I'm still your lover. I didn't know they would attack me. I didn't know something like this would happen."
Aiden heard what Anya said. Anya still didn't want to announce their marriage even though everyone insulted her like this. He stepped forward and approached Anya, took one of her hands and held it tightly.
"No one will dare to stop you again!" Aiden said. He would make sure that no one dared to insult Anya again.
No one could insult the woman he loved.
Anya looked up, and looked at Aiden. She could feel warmth flowing from their interlocked hands, "There won't be a single person who dares to insult you again!" Aiden's voice was soft, making Anya feel calm and safe.
She stepped forward and leaned against Aiden's body. Then, she said softly, "Am I embarrassing you? I caused a scene in your office."
"I am not ashamed. I feel annoyed because my lover shouldn't be sad like this." Aiden didn't take his eyes off Anya even for a second.
Anya felt a little embarrassed by Aiden's answer, but she felt she didn't have the energy to answer it. She could only lean her body against Aiden's body.
She was really tired. No matter what she said, no one would believe her.
Everyone thought of her as a cheap woman, the third person to make Natali lose her fiancé. She couldn't argue. What could she say to make everyone realize that this wasn't her fault?
Natali didn't want to marry Aiden? That Natali who set her up?
Didn't that sound absurd?
In the end, Anya could only accept the punishment for a mistake she didn't even commit ...
