Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO
Chapter 474 - The Role Of A Friend

"Should I wait for them to kick me out? I feel like my turn will come after you. I couldn't stay there any longer," Tara said.

When she heard this, Anya's heart felt bitter.

It turned out that Tara thought that way.

Anya knew that Tara was not as confident as she looked. She could only solve her problem in the simplest way.

It was true that she loved Nico and that guy was the only one who could break through the shield that she built around her. But seeing what Anya had been experiencing, Tara immediately ran away.

"When did you leave the house?" Anya asked in a low voice.

"The day the Atmajaya family wanted to abort your baby. That day, Aiden told me to check on you. After coming home from your house, I immediately packed my things and went home," Tara said.

"Does your grandfather know?" Anya asked again.

"Yes. My grandfather advised me. If the Atmajaya Family makes a big deal about this, he will help me explain it so that they won't keep chasing me," Tara said with a smile.

Anya felt very jealous of her. She could do whatever she wanted without thinking about the consequences. It's because she still had her grandfather. Though her family was not as powerful as the Atmajaya Family, Tirta Dartha was not someone who could be underestimated.

Her grandfather advised and rebuked her harshly, but she still respected Tara's decision and wanted to defend her in front of the Atmajaya Family.

"Did you tell Nico why you left?" Anya asked.

"No. I just walked away. Nico is smart enough to know why I'm leaving," Tara smiled faintly. "Can you stop interrogating me and let me enjoy this delicious meal?"

"Seeing you eat, my appetite has also increased," Anya said with a smile.

"My grandfather also said the same thing. If I'm not busy, I'll always accompany him to dinner and make him happy," Tara spooned the fried rice into her mouth. "Mrs. Hana's cooking is really tasty,"

"Tara, did your grandfather tell you anything about the Atmajaya Family?" Anya asked.

Tara just shrugged helplessly. "I've also asked, but my grandfather didn't want to tell. He also asked me not to get involved with the Atmajaya Family,"

"Don't you want to be with Nico?" Anya took the spoon and played with the food on her plate.

As soon as she heard Anya's question, Tara immediately stopped chewing. After that, she chewed her food slower than before, as if thinking about something.

After swallowing the food in her mouth, she smiled back. "Of course I want to be with him. If I could kidnap him, I might have done it. But Nico is not only mine. He has his family. What can I do?"

"It's not certain what happened to me will happen to you. Nico is very sincere to you. His mother and grandfather also like you. Your grandfather's relationship with the Atmajaya family is also very good so they will never treat you badly," Anya couldn't help persuading Tara.

"Will Aiden treat you badly? He gave a big compensation when he wanted to divorce you. But no one in the Atmajaya Family cares about what you want and what you need. They can only force what they want to you," Tara said.

"It turns out that you are the smartest. You can see everything," Anya said with a bitter smile. "I feel like the stupidest person alive."

Tara looked at her friend, she thought for a moment and then said, "You're not stupid. When you weigh on your feelings more than yourself, you will lose your way,"

After that, Tara continued, "Don't bother persuading me. I won't come back. I still can live well and be happy. But that doesn't mean I have to live with Nico. I can live alone, without any man. Anya, you must learn to love yourself before loving anyone else. No matter what, you must be selfish. Don't let yourself to be treated unfairly,"

"Do you think I'm pathetic?" Anya asked with a thin smile.

"Don't you feel that way? Have you ever thought that you would become pregnant and have children before you graduated? You've even received an offer to the best academy in France just like your dreams, but you have to give up because of your circumstances. You even hide it from everyone. If Aiden doesn't want to divorce you, will you tell him about the academy? Are you stupid?" Tara was irritated and put fried chicken in her mouth.

Hearing Tara's annoyance, Anya chuckled but said nothing.

It's true that she was stupid. She put her dream aside because of her love for a man.

She was willing to bear his child and give birth to their child, but the man wanted to divorce her and forced her to abort her pregnancy.

"Why are you laughing instead? Am I wrong?" Tara asked. She put down the spoon and looked closely at Anya. "I left Nico's house and wanted to cancel my engagement. Looks like I've offended the Atmajaya Family. I don't mind offending them again,"

"Hmm… Just say what you want to say. Don't hold back," Anya said while looking at Tara seriously.

"Don't look at me that seriously. I'm embarrassed," Tara laughed and asked. "Anya, do you know how long it takes to have a child?"

"Nine months," Anya replied.

"No, you need a lifetime," Tara replied. "You need nine months just to give birth. After that, it will take you all your life to care for the child. Every day, you have to carry out your responsibilities as a parent."

Anya nodded. She didn't oppose Tara's words. Up until now, her mother was still worrying and taking care of her.

"I know you intend to give birth to this child. If you can take this child with you, there will be no problem. But if you can't take them away from the Atmajaya Family, your child will have to live with their stepmother," Tara continued with a serious expression.

"What else?" Anya smiled.

"You can't do anything during your pregnancy. After the child is born, you have to study and care for the child. Can you do it though? Caring for a child isn't limited to feeding them and watching them over. You also have to educate and take good care of them. Even if you move out with your mother, do you think you can feed the three of you? If you are willing to divorce from Aiden, I advise you not to give birth to this child," Tara said.

"This is the first time you've suggested that to me," Anya muttered

"I am Nico's fiancée. Of course I also hope your relationship with Aiden will last. But now, I play the role of your best friend. I thought of everything from your point of view. If Aiden insists on getting a divorce, why do you have to sacrifice yourself to give birth to a child?"

"I didn't give birth to this child for Aiden. This is my child. This divorce has nothing to do with the child in my womb. They're innocent," Anya said firmly.

"Anya, if you want this child, you have to work twice as hard as before. No… Maybe ten times harder than before. Can you?" Tara asked while glaring at Anya.

"I've thought of everything. As long as the Atmajaya Family agrees that I give birth to this child, I will postpone my studies. I will give birth to this child and take care of them. After that, I will return to pursue my career," Anya said calmly.

"How about your child? You won't be able to take them with you while studying," Tara asked.
