Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

Anya was still silent in front of Aiden's office door, not knowing what to do.

Aiden's bodyguard also couldn't do anything because his hands were full. He couldn't knock on the door nor could he enter carelessly.

"Can you help me knock on the door, madame?" The bodyguard looked back at Anya in embarrassment. He felt a little uneasy about having to ask her for help.

Anya seemed to wake up from her reverie. She saw the two packages in the guard's hand and nodded. Her feet stepped toward the door and knocked softly.

"Enter!" Aiden's voice came from within.

The sound made Anya's hands tremble slightly and her heart beat faster. The sound still gave off the same effect as before. Even though she had tried to kill her feelings, it turned out that they were still not dead.

Anya took a deep breath and opened the door, trying to calm herself.

"Sir, have your lunch," the guard greeted him and placed all the packages he was carrying on the table.

Aiden's eyes were fixed on Anya, not caring even if the bodyguard was bringing food. Anya felt very awkward when she realized Aiden's gaze.

Before entering the room, her heart was already in chaos. Now she could only lower her head to avoid Aiden's gaze.

She came to discuss terminating her contract, but until now, she hadn't dared to open her mouth. Seeing Aiden's gaze made her panicked.

Anya tried to cover up her panic and then looked at Aiden, "Aiden, long time no see."

"We just met at the airport a few days ago," Aiden could see Anya's panic and he immediately said to his bodyguard, "Leave us alone and get out of here."

The bodyguard understood him immediately and left the room.

Anya linked her hands tightly. Her lips were pressed tightly together, not knowing what else to say.

'You stupid!' Why did she have to make such a small talk? They met just a few days ago!

'Don't panic, don't be afraid, Anya!' She spoke those words in her heart over and over again.

Anya took a deep breath and straightened her body before saying, "I came to discuss terminating my contract with you. Two years ago, I signed a work contract with Iris…"

"It's lunch time. I don't want to talk about work," Aiden got up and walked toward the dining table.

"Oh! We can talk after you eat," Anya replied, nodding.

After working all day, Aiden must be hungry. His break time had to be interrupted by work problems because of her, so Anya decided to wait.

As long as Aiden was in a good mood and agreed to terminate her work contract, Anya was willing to wait any length of time.

"I have no appetite when I have to eat alone. Eat with me," Aiden pulled a chair for Anya.

How dare Anya eat together with Aiden?

"I'm not hungry. You eat first, I'll wait for you to finish eating," Anya said softly.

"If you accompany me to eat, I will discuss the employment contract issue with you. If not, I don't want to," Aiden replied.

Anya felt the hope in her heart crumble. Thinking of the work contract in Aiden's hands, Anya had no other choice but to comply.

"Okay then," Anya sat on her chair, forcing a faint smile.

Unconsciously, her hands opened the food package like when she was preparing Aiden's lunch before.

Anya's eyes lit up when she saw the food that Hana had prepared. It had been a long time since she had eaten Hana's food and she missed her very much.

Aiden stared at Anya's face as if trying to remember her expression in his mind. "Eat the soup first," he said.

"Hmm..." Anya took the bowl of soup as she silently looked at Aiden. Aiden looked thinner than before, but his face looked sharper.

There were faint lines between his brows, perhaps because the man frowned too often.

Anya could only eat in silence and enjoy the delicious homemade food with just a smile.

Aiden could see that Anya really liked the food on the table. Seeing her enjoying the food made his lips stick out a little.

In this world, the most beautiful thing was to see the person you love enjoying a meal in front of you with a sweet smile!

Aiden was very happy to see Anya enjoying her food.

Plus, Anya was accompanying him to lunch today. This made the lunch even more special.

Aiden's hand moved Anya's favorite food closer to her and took the ones that she didn't really like.

Then, he gave a tissue to Anya. "Eat slowly."

Anya accepted it shyly. "Mrs. Hana's cooking is really delicious. It's been a long time since I tasted her cooking, I miss her,"

"You are too thin. Eat more," Aiden stroked Anya's head, as he usually did.

Anya's hand immediately stopped moving. Aiden's touch immediately brought her back to reality. She immediately stepped back from her place and avoided Aiden. "Aiden, please don't touch me..."

Losing his footing, Aiden pulled back his hand. "Anya, do you have to act like this to me?"

Anya was silent for a moment to hear the answer as if considering what to say next. "You don't want me and my baby. We're divorced. What else do you want?" She moved her chair back, moving away from Aiden.

"Anya, I was facing a big problem and many difficulties at that time. Now that you're back, I'll tell you everything," Aiden said.

Anya neither answered nor returned to eat. She just kept quiet while looking at Aiden.

What was Aiden trying to say?

Until now, Aiden thought that she was his niece. The man didn't even know that it was all a lie.

He did not know that he had been believing the wrong thing.

He did not know that he had made the wrong decision.

So what did Aiden want to explain now?

"No need. Two years have passed, I've forgotten everything. I just want to work hard and be devoted to my mother now," Anya said calmly.

Aiden opened his mouth but nothing could come out of his lips.

After the lunch ended, Anya cleaned up the food and put all the lunch boxes back in the bag as usual.

When she finished, she saw Aiden had disappeared from before her.

It was rare for Anya to meet him. And now that they could meet, they had not had the chance to resolve their contract problem.

Anya wouldn't come home empty handed.

She sat on the sofa and waited patiently for Aiden, but she couldn't sit as calmly as she used to.

As soon as Aiden returned, she came with a plate of cherries in his hand.

Anya was shocked to see him. Aiden went to get her favorite fruit?

"We can talk while we eat," Aiden placed the plate on the table in front of the sofa. Seeing that Anya was silent and did not take it, he took a cherry in his hand and gave it to her. "I don't know whether these cherries are sweet or not,"

Anya took it and put the fruit in her mouth. The cherries were bright red and tasted sweet.

"You know what? These cherries are not as cute as you..." Aiden said in a low voice.

Anya fell silent again for the umpteenth time. Did Aiden try to seduce her?

Did Aiden know that she was not Maria's real daughter?

Or did Aiden lose control of himself and forget that he was his niece?
