Chapter 382 - Abandoned Place

When Aiden exited the hotel, he accidentally ran into Ivan and Keara.

"Aiden, why are you alone? Isn't Anya accompanying you?" Keara immediately stopped him.

Aiden didn't answer Keara's question, but he did greet Ivan. "I have to take care of something first. You guys come inside,"

Ivan did not see Anya with Aiden. And seeing Aiden who was in a hurry, he felt a little worried.

He called his assistant and whispered to him, "Quickly find out what happened."

"Yes, sir," the assistant immediately carried out Ivan's order.

"Who are you worried about? Aiden or Anya?" Keara asked on purpose.

"What's that got to do with you? You take care of your own problems and I will take care of my own. There is no need to interfere with each other's business," Ivan's voice sounded unfriendly when speaking to Keara.

Keara didn't care about him. After all, she didn't love Ivan. There was only one goal that she had in her mind, and that's Aiden.

Ivan might just think of her as a substitute for Anya. But when she thought that Anya wasn't on the same level as Aiden, Keara felt a little relieved. At least, she didn't score under Anya.

Because of this, Keara felt much more confident about getting back to Aiden's side.

When Ivan and Keara entered the hall, the engagement party was still lively. Raka and Natali had changed into their second outfit, to more casual clothes so they could move more freely to greet the guests while still maintaining their image as the main show.

Seeing Ivan's arrival, Nico immediately went to him. "Uncle, how is your health? You just got out of the hospital huh?"

Ivan patted Nico's shoulder and said with a smile, "I only got sick a little and needed lots of rest. In the meantime, I can't work and return to the company. You have to help Aiden more,"

"You can rest until you recover. I will work hard," Nico was in a good mood and full of confidence because he managed to get a partnership with Raka.

Ivan nodded and then asked, "I just saw Aiden coming out the door. But why didn't I see Anya?"

"Auntie didn't feel well and headed back home first. Maybe uncle was worried and caught up with her," Nico heard from Tara that something had happened to Anya. Right now, Tara was on her way to this hotel.

Nico didn't know who dared to harm Anya but there's one person he suspected here so he didn't tell Ivan the truth. His eyes swept towards Keara who was beside Ivan.

"You said Anya and Raka used to date, right? Anya might feel down when she saw Raka getting engaged. That's very natural," Keara said on purpose.

Ivan and Nico's faces immediately changed. Nico then answered, "Keara, please be careful with what you say. My aunt is sick but you brought up her past relationship with Raka instead. Today is Raka's engagement day. Are you trying to cause trouble on purpose?"

"Nico, you're getting bold huh? You used to call me aunt politely, but now you call me by my name. I was just joking. Why do you have to panic like that,"  Keara said.

"You used to be very elegant and generous. Of course I will respect you and accept you as an aunt. But now you don't care about anything and keep bothering my two uncles. You humiliated Uncle Aiden and took advantage of Uncle Ivan. You disturbed my family's peace and hid my sister's whereabouts. If I don't stay away from you, I won't be that confident to not consider myself the next victim," Nico said with his harsh mouth. Then, he turned to face Ivan. "Uncle, be careful. Don't let yourself be the next victim,"

After saying that, Nico immediately turned around and ignored Keara.

Keara really wanted to stomp her feet hard on the floor. 'How insolent!'

Nico was the first grandson of the Atmajaya Family. Bima always pampered him and Maria was never separated from him. Therefore, not a single person dared to go against Nico.

Aiden and Ivan were both nice to him, that's why Nico dared to act so rashly. If he hated someone, he would not hold back and insult that person right in front of their face.

What made Keara even angrier wasn't Nico, but her fiancé who didn't defend her at all.

At this point, could she still call Ivan her fiancé? At least the man could pretend a little ...

She had to find a way to break her engagement to Ivan as soon as possible.

"Brother Ivan, Sister Keara, you've come," seeing Ivan's arrival, Raka immediately greeted them.

"Raka, congratulations," Ivan congratulated him sincerely, as did Keara.

Raka's mother, Irena, also approached them both. "Keara, you've come! I was just talking to your mother. I heard you are studying abroad and getting ready to start your own business, huh? You are truly amazing," Irena said with a smile.

"Ah! Auntie, I'm honored to hear your compliment," Keara took Irena's hand and sat down with her.

Since the last time they had a fight in the hospital, Keara and Ivan's relationship had only gotten worse.

Today, she came to accompany Ivan to this engagement party just for a show out.

Ivan had no intention of canceling their engagement just yet and was stalling it for some purpose. How could Keara let Ivan continue to drag her like this?

"Keara, are you going to open a perfume shop?" Irena asked.

"Yes, Auntie. My family works in spices. In recent years, I have studied about the perfumery world and now I am ready to open a shop. Not only perfume, I'll also make aromatherapy candles, diffusers and so on. The quality of my products will certainly be much better than others," Keara said confidently.

"Have you got a place?" Irena asked on purpose. In fact, she had heard that Keara was going to open a perfume shop in a mall owned by the Atmajaya Group.

Irena just wanted to make sure that the gossip she had heard was true.

"Aiden gave one of the shops on the 1st floor of his mall to me. It's still being renovated now. When we have a soft opening, I won't forget to invite auntie," Keara said with a smile.

Hearing her mentioning Aiden's name affectionately, Irena could only smile stiffly.

Irena knew that Imel had Amore on the second floor of the mall and Anya had Iris on the first floor. Now, Keara wanted to open a shop opposite Anya's. The place would become a battlefield!

A while ago, rumors regarding Aiden and Keara were circulating in the city. It seemed that it was spread for a reason.

Irena looked at her son from a distance. If Aiden and Keara got back together, that meant Anya would come back to bother her beloved son.

She would not let it happen ...

...

The underground car park at the mall B3 belonging to the Atmajaya Group had long been neglected.

Initially, the mall wanted to build a commercial floor on its underground floor. But then there was a great flood which drowned the entire floor in water. In the end, they decided to forget the place for the safety of the visitors.

It was very remote and humid. Just plain empty, no sound could be heard…

Yura was caught and brought by Aiden's guards there.

Nobody knew that the mall had an abandoned place like this. That place was very safe for Aiden…

In that place, the two men whom Yura had ordered leaked all of her plans.

Harris approached Aiden and asked in a low voice, "Sir, Yura refuses to open her mouth. What should I do?"
