Chapter 592 - Defeating Anya

"What did she say?" Nico asked.

"Mother said she would come and cook for us. She will bring us the fish and other ingredients," Nadine replied with a laugh. "Mother is the best."

When she heard that Maria was coming tonight, Anya didn't know how to deal with her mixed feelings.

When Imel humiliated her and Tara at the Atmajaya Family house last night, Maria was the one who defended them.

After preparing dinner, Maria was exhausted and returned to her room to rest. She didn't even go to dinner with them.

Anya didn't have a chance to talk to her at all.

But she felt very relieved and happy when she saw Maria's condition was much better than when she met her at the old house of the Atmajaya family.

She couldn't blame Maria for what happened to her two years ago.

They were both victims.

And the culprit was none other than Keara!

But Anya didn't understand why Aiden didn't do anything. The man had suspected Keara from the start, but why didn't Aiden act and let Keara bear his child?

Aiden was not a very kind person. How would he actually make Keara pay for her sins?

Suddenly, Anya had a bad feeling. Was it because she couldn't have children now that Aiden let Keara bear the child? Since Keara had made Anya unable to get pregnant again, Aiden would ask her to give birth to his child as compensation for her actions.

Even if Keara gave birth to the child, Aiden would not marry her and only took the child from her.

If it were like that, Anya would never accept it.

Even though the child was artificially inseminated, even though Aiden had never been in contact with Keara, Anya would not be able to accept the child since they had the blood of the woman who killed her child ran in their veins.

Yesterday, when she went out with Esther, Esther advised her a lot. She suggested that Anya accept Aiden back. If indeed they couldn't have children, there were various ways to get them, perhaps by IVF.

Anya had considered it. She'd only want to undergo IVF if that would mean she bore Aiden's child.

But if Aiden took Keara's child, that meant Anya had to raise Aiden and Keara's child, and not theirs.

Anya was not that kind to just forget everything and raise Keara's child.

Deep down inside, she prayed and hoped that was not what Aiden wanted. But if that's what Aiden was planning, Anya would really end her relationship with him.

After breakfast, Anya and Nadine went together to Iris. They also picked Shania up, but this time Meli didn't come with them because she was on leave.

When she saw Anya, Shania immediately asked in an excited tone. "Anya, I heard that Keara is pregnant with Aiden's child. Is that true?"

"I don't think I can answer that question. Try asking his niece," Anya said, smiling faintly.

Nadine looked at Anya carefully and answered the question with a smile. "I don't think my uncle will like someone like Keara."

Shania laughed and said nothing more.

The last time Raisa came to Iris and made a fuss, Anya asked Shania to find Nadine. At that time, Shania just found out that Nadine turned out to be the daughter of the Atmajaya Family.

Shania also knew that Anya and Aiden had a relationship in the past. She heard that Anya and Keara were rivals, but she didn't know who Aiden really liked.

However, Keara suddenly became pregnant now. Did that mean Aiden chose Keara?

Anya didn't care what other people said. She only cared what Aiden thought and what he planned to do.

Aiden knew very well that it was Keara who manipulated the results of the DNA test two years ago and that she was also the one who killed their child. But now Keara was pregnant with his child, how could Aiden let it happen?

Keara was so crazy that she even dared to trap Nadine and Nico.

Anya didn't understand why Aiden didn't do anything. What was Aiden really thinking?

Keara teamed up with Imel, forcing Bima to agree to Ivan and Raisa's marriage. In this way, Ivan had the support of the Mahendra Family, and Bima had no other choice but to agree because he did not want to sacrifice his grandson.

At the same time, bad things almost happened to Nadine.

Anya wanted to know what Atmajaya Family would do.

Around 10 o'clock, she received a call from Jonathan, saying that the hotel where he and Nadine were locked was shut down.

Anya thought that this was the result of Harris and Nico's work to deal with the problem.

As Nico said, not many people dared to find trouble with the Atmajaya Family. And now that Keara had done it she had to think about the consequences.

Keara wasn't afraid when she trapped the Atmajaya Family. After all, she was pregnant with Aiden's child now. She knew that no one dared to do anything to her because the child in her womb was a descendant of the Atmajaya Family.

She dared to do anything!

When Anya heard that the hotel was closed, she was not happy. SHe deliberately came out of Iris and looked at Keara's Parfume.

She saw Keara standing in front of her shop door while chatting with her employees. Did she not hear that her hotel has closed? Or did she not care about it?

"Have you heard? They said Keara was pregnant and wanted to resign from the perfume competition."

"How could that be? I heard she will still participate."

"She wants to enter the competition while pregnant? Is she out of her mind?"

"Who knows. Maybe she really wants to compete with Anya."

Keara lost the competition against Anya last time but two years later, she became pregnant with Aiden's child and was already on the verge of victory. She had to win the competition to really beat Anya.

"Has Aiden gone blind? I think Anya is much better than Keara."

"I think Anya will win. Our shop will win."

When Anya heard her employees gossip, she didn't bother to stop nor join them.

This was a very prestigious international competition and she had to win it. She must be the champion to raise her name on the international stage to advance her career.

But what worried her was, she was currently working in Iris' perfume room. Keara had installed Mila as her right hand to spy on Anya. Would the perfume recipe get leaked?

Although Anya was very careful and always tidied up the perfume room every day, she found that someone had moved her notebook.

She was sure that someone stole the contents of her notebook, perhaps by taking a photo.

Only Anya, Mila and Esther had the keys to the second floor's office room. No one could've touched Anya's things besides Mila.

…

During the day, Anya and Nadine went to visit Jonathan.

Jonathan looked very happy when he saw them. "If you guys come to apologize for what Nico and Harris did, I really don't care about them. I feel happy to finally be able to see your beautiful faces, rather than theirs."

Anya laughed at Jonathan's joke. "Where's Alisa? Does she know you are hurt?"

"My assistant drove her to school and there happened to be an event so she wouldn't be back until the weekend. She still doesn't know that I'm hurt," Jonathan said sadly. "I don't want to find a stepmother for Alisa. I didn't think my father thought Nadine and Alisa had a good relationship and forced this matchmaking in the wrong way. I hope you can forgive him."
