"How is your mother now?" Galih asked.
"Thank you for asking my mother, Uncle. My mother is fine," Anya replied politely. She didn't tell Galih about her mother's illness. She didn't want to share it with people she didn't really know.
In addition, she knew that her mother and Galih Pratama had a relationship when they were young, even though Diana didn't want to tell Anya about their past.
Galih could remember Diana from Anya's attitude. Kindness and gentleness radiated from Anya when she treated him politely. Diana had raised a really good daughter.
Indah immediately guessed Anya's identity. Anya was Diana's daughter!
She looked at Anya's face and appearance, which was unexpectedly very similar to Keara's. Just like Keara said, there wouldn't be anyone who doubted if the two of them were called long lost sisters.
Thinking about this instantly made Indah's face change. Her face, which was originally smiling politely, immediately turned deathly pale.
"Husband, I don't feel well. I want to go home first," after knowing that Anya was Diana's daughter, Indah didn't want to see her again. Her heart ached as if she had been stabbed by a thousand needles.
"Mother, are you okay?" Keara asked worriedly.
"I'm fine," Indah just smiled weakly.
"Keara, father will take her home first," Galih embraced Indah's waist, afraid that his wife would fall when he saw her very pale face. Then he looked at Aiden. "Aiden, tell your father that my wife is not feeling well. Give our greetings to him. We'll go home first,"
"I'll take you," Keara said.
"The car is already in front. You haven't seen Bima for a long time. There must be many things he would like to ask you. Please accompany him," Galih said.
Right at that moment, Bima called out to her from a distance. "Keara ..."
"Father, mother, Uncle Bima called me. Be careful on your way,��� Keara turned and walked over to Bima.
Seeing this, Aiden immediately said, "Uncle, Auntie, let us escort you,"
Anya took the initiative to take Indah's hand and embrace her, helping her to walk while speaking worriedly. "Auntie, your face looks very pale. Once you get home, don't forget to drink something warm and get plenty of rest,"
Indah stared at Anya's hand wrapped around her arm. She felt very uncomfortable when she thought that Anya was Diana's daughter.
She really wanted to get Anya's hand off her arm. But seeing the girl's kindness, Indah couldn't do it. She couldn't even get rid of that hand.
"It seems you know a lot, even though you are young..." Indah said coldly.
"My mother's health is not good. So I know enough about medicine ," Anya said with a smile. She was not offended by Indah's attitude to her at all.
Seeing her innocent and sincere smile, Indah couldn't hate the girl. Even though Anya was most likely Diana and Galih's daughter, Indah couldn't hate the innocent girl.
"You must be suffering a lot," Indah's voice was soft.
Meanwhile, Aiden was chatting with Galih.
"Anya is a very strong girl. She works in the garden and sells the flowers herself. Now, she is increasingly interested in the perfumery world. She is not only planting flowers, but is growing vanilla in her garden. But after harvesting, she doesn't know how to process it," Aiden said, deliberately opening the conversation so that Anya could sell her vanilla.
"I once suggested to Diana to plant vanilla. It takes a long time to grow vanilla. After harvesting, Anya was able to sell it to me. I have a factory to process vanilla," Galih replied with a smile.
Anya felt very happy. She didn't expect that her plan would be this smooth.
She immediately realized that Aiden was trying to help her. That's why Aiden offered to take Galih and Indah.
Aiden helped Anya, finding a buyer for her vanilla. And Galih did not refuse either!
"Thank you Uncle. I'll call you when it's harvested," Anya said happily.
"Do you have my cell phone number? You can send us a photo or video of the vanilla growth. I don't want to buy it if the quality isn't good," Galih said with a laugh.
"I understand! I will take good care of the vanilla," Anya nodded excitedly.
When she saw her husband and Anya chatting intimately, Indah's heart ached. Even though she didn't hate Anya, she still didn't like seeing her husband's closeness to the girl.
"If there is something you don't understand, you can ask me. I'll help you find an expert," Galih headed to the car's door and helped his wife to enter. He turned and looked at Aiden and Anya with a smile. "If you have trouble, feel free to ask for my help."
Anya looked at Aiden with a smile. "Thank you for the offer, Uncle. But Aiden has helped me a lot. I just need help selling the vanilla because I don't know how to process it,"
"I will take all of them if the quality is good, no matter the amount," For some reason, Galih felt happy every time he saw Anya.
Hearing Galih's words, Anya nodded happily.
Her smile seemed contagious. Even though Indah didn't like Galih and Anya's closeness, Anya's smile unconsciously made her slightly smile.
Once she regained her senses, Indah immediately looked away and pretended to be calm.
Aiden could see Indah's expression. He could see her displeasure, annoyance and complicated eyes whenever she looked at Anya. Aiden also saw the continuous changes on Indah's face. A second the woman smiled, a second later she looked displeased.
He knew why Indah was uncomfortable. In fact, Aiden himself also suspected that Anya was actually Galih's daughter.
However, according to his investigation, Diana was not related to Galih and chose to marry Deny because she did not want to become Keara's stepmother.
Diana and Deny had a happy married life at the beginning, so it was impossible for Diana to betray Deny and have an affair with Galih. There was no way Anya was the child of an affair.
But why was Anya so similar to Keara? These were all mysteries that Aiden had not been able to solve.
"Aiden, bring Anya in. It's cold outside. We will go home," Galih said as he closed the door. Then he lowered the window and said goodbye to Aiden and Anya.
"Be careful," Aiden replied politely.
"See you again, Uncle, Aunt!" Anya smiled and waved her hand to the two people in a friendly manner.
When their car pulled away, Indah glanced at the rearview mirror and saw Anya still standing at the door, waiting until their car was out of sight.
Indah took a deep breath. Anya was a very good girl and her life was full of suffering. But she treated the girl so badly. It made her heart feel a little sorry.
But what could she do? How could she be nice to a girl who was possibly another child of her husband?
"Honey, what's wrong with you?" Galih asked worriedly.
Indah looked at Galih angrily. "I feel uncomfortable meeting that girl. I've been married to you for more than twenty years, but this is the first time I feel really disappointed in you,"
"Honey you know my story with Diana. I disappointed her and decided to marry your sister. After your sister died, I did intend to approach her again. But Diana didn't want to have a relationship with a widower with one child like me. You are the one who gave Keara and me a place to come home to and I will never disappoint you for your good. I swear I'll never betray you," Galih said. "If you don't believe it ..."
Indah immediately closed Galih's mouth. "I trust you. But why did that kid look so much like Keara? She is Diana's daughter but why does she look so much like yours? How could I not think about it? Galih, I don't want to doubt you. But try to remember carefully. Have you ever been with Diana..."
