Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO
Chapter 345 - Hypocritical Mask

"Tell your mother not to come to the Atmajaya Family next time. Without your mother, you can become the second son of the Atmajaya Family. With your mother, you won't be able to remove the label of illegitimate child from yourself," Aiden said when Ivan wanted to leave the room.

When Aiden said that, the expression on Anya's face froze. She looked at Ivan uncomfortably and also with pity.

​​

Aiden's words made Ivan frown a little and his head bowed.

"Aiden, is that how you talk to your brother?" Bima warned.

After hearing this, Ivan's face returned to normal. He waved his hand and said casually, "I will tell my mother not to come to this house looking for me,"

"Ivan, Aiden didn't mean it like that. He said it for your good," Maria said, trying to intervene.

"I understand," Ivan smiled, especially at Anya who looked worried.

Anya blinked her eyes and tried to hold back her tears. She felt very sad.

The man who she considered an older brother, the man who always looked after her when she was little, had been living this way in the Atmajaya family.

If he could choose his own life, would Ivan still want to be the second son of the Atmajaya Family?

After Ivan left, Aiden and Anya also returned to their home.

On the way home, Anya leaned her head against the car's window and pensively looked outside without saying anything.

"Aren't you glad I said that?" Aiden's voice was cold. He was annoyed that Anya didn't defend him.

Anya woke up from her reverie and looked at Aiden. "He didn't intend to fight with you. There's no need to attack him like that,"

Aiden grabbed Anya's chin, forcing her to face him. His eyes looked very cold. "His existence alone is a mistake. Whether he wanted to fight with me or not, he was still the second son of the Atmajaya Family. If he doesn't want to compete with me, then he shouldn't have returned to the Atmajaya Family ten years ago,"

"At least he doesn't…"

"How well do you know him? Anya, ten years ago, Ivan was the same age as you are now. He's not a kid. He is a grown man. Do you think he doesn't know what his mother is doing? He's not as innocent as you think, not as good as you think. Don't be fooled by his mask. He's a hypocrite," Aiden said.

Anya stared at Aiden, thinking carefully about Aiden's words.

She remembered how Ivan had looked after her when she was a child. And how Ivan ended up getting hurt to save her.

But Anya never really knew Ivan. She didn't even know that Ivan was the son of the Atmajaya Family.

What she saw was what Ivan showed her, not the real Ivan.

After thinking about it carefully, Anya calmed herself down and said, "I know. I'll be careful,"

Aiden let go of her grip on Anya's chin and stroked her head. "Are you going to campus tomorrow?"

"Yes," Anya nodded.

"You can replace me to visit Ivan and give flowers to him at the hospital tomorrow," Aiden said.

Anya was silent for a moment. "Should I go alone?"

"At Dartha Hospital, no one dared to do anything to you. Don't worry," Aiden said casually.

Anya just smiled awkwardly. In truth, she wasn't worried that anything would happen to her. She was more worried that Aiden would be jealous if she met another man, even though that man was his own brother.

"When do I have to go tomorrow?" Anya asked.

"My father will go there during the day. You can go during the day too," Aiden.

Anya felt bad if she had to meet Ivan alone. So, she would come when Bima was in Ivan's ward.

"Okay. I will do it for you," Anya said.

"It's still not too late. Do you want to go to the hospital?" Aiden raised the watch on his wrist and looked at it. It wasn't even nine.

"Okay. My college will start tomorrow and I have to immediately take care of my perfume which will be launched in October. I'll be busy and have no time to visit my mother. I will say goodbye to her..." Anya nodded.

Aiden drove Anya to the hospital and told his bodyguard to accompany Anya to her mother's room. He had to take care of work for a while.

At 9:10, Aiden's car stopped at the Love Mother and Child Hospital. Harris was waiting for him at the door.

"Sir, the doctor who helped Mrs Diana to give birth is now the head of the hospital," Harris said as he led Aiden to the elevator.

Aiden nodded and followed Harris into the building.

At 9.30, Aiden walked out of the hospital chief's office. His face looked far more serious than before.

Harris followed behind as they descended downstairs. Seeing Aiden's gloomy face, he took the initiative to ask, "Sir, would you like to continue the investigation?"

"I already know what put Anya's mother into a coma again," Aiden took a deep breath.

"I told the hospital if Mrs Diana wakes up, they have to tell you right away. As long as Mrs. Diana doesn't meet Madame first, she won't know the truth," Harris said in a low voice.

"How is your investigation regarding Heru?" asked Aiden in a serious voice.

"Heru and Mrs. Imel never met. He is very loyal to Mr. Bima and doesn't like it when Mrs. Imel tries to be part of the Atmajaya Family," Harris said.

"Continue the investigation. I'm sure there is a connection between Heru, Ivan and Imel," Aiden never lowered his guard against Ivan, even though Ivan had never done anything wrong.

"Yes sir," Harris was ready to escort Aiden. But before Aiden left, he asked first, "Sir, do you want to confirm the relationship between Madame and Mr Galih?"

"No need," Aiden did not want Anya to have any relationship with the Pratama Family and Anya did not want to have anything to do with Galih.

Harris nodded and then he asked again, "Sir, is there any news regarding Miss Nadine?"

"Harris, you have to prepare for the worst. So far, Keara has lied to us. She didn't lose her memory. For three years, she deliberately hid abroad and did not return. Maybe Nadine has..."

"No, Miss Nadine is fine. Maybe she just forgot where to go home. She will be back soon," Harris did not want to accept that fact.

"I also hope she will come back and I will not give up looking for her. I'll let you know right away when there's news," Aiden patted Harris on the shoulder and got into the car.

When Aiden almost reached the hospital where Diana was being treated, he immediately called Anya and told her to get off.

After answering the phone, Anya held Diana's hand and said, "Mother, I'm going back to campus tomorrow. I'll be very busy and won't have much time to visit you. You didn't forget your promise, right? You want to see me launch a new perfume and beat that woman. You have to wake up…"

There was no response from Diana who was lying on her bed. But Anya was not disappointed at all. She was sure that her mother was strong and would wake up again.

"Mother, Aiden is waiting for me downstairs. I'm going home first. Get well soon," Anya hugged her mother and then left the room.

Not long after Anya's departure, the head nurse went around to see the patient's condition. She entered Diana's room and saw tears in the corner of Diana's eyes.

The head nurse immediately called the doctor and notified Aiden.

When he received a call from the hospital, Anya was sitting beside him. After receiving information that Diana was awake, his eyes looked serious.

"Sir, Mrs. Diana is awake and wants to see you," a shocking news came from across the phone.
