Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO
Chapter 506 - The Best Mother

Anya was chatting with her mother on the phone when she realized Tara was looking at her wistfully.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" Anya flicked Tara's forehead gently and ended the call.

Tara immediately snapped out of her reverie and changed the subject, "It's okay. What did your mother say?" 

"My mother said the guest who rented her room had returned. She will order someone to clean the house. she was very happy when she found out that you were going to stay overnight. Mother also said that she will take Mrs. Esther over to the house for dinner together. We're having a barbecue!" Anya said with a happy smile.

Tara was silent for a moment and then asked doubtfully, "Nico wants barbecue too. Can I come with him?" 

Anya felt conflicted when she had to answer that. Actually, she didn't want to invite Nico because he was a member of the Atmajaya Family. But in the end, she decided to agree to it. 

"Okay."

"How about asking Mrs. Hana to come too? Her cooking is delicious and she lives close to your mother's house. It's a coincidence that Aiden is also abroad. We can take this opportunity to gather together!" Tara suggested.

Anya didn't reject the suggestion. During the two years she was abroad, Hana always contacted her. The maid would occasionally tell a story or two about Aiden.

Unlike Nico, he had many friends and was active on his social media. Without Hana, Anya wouldn't know about Aiden's news.

Even though they had been divorced for two years, Anya had never deleted Aiden's cellphone number or blocked his social media.

Every now and then she would upload a photo, hoping Aiden would see it. But Aiden never contacted her at all.

Finally, after two years, Anya found out the reason why Aiden had never contacted her. The man thought of her as his niece and hoped that Anya could start a new life without him.

That's why Aiden didn't want to interfere with Anya's new life.

…

That night, Diana's house was very crowded.

Nico and Tara were chatting in the garden, while Hana and a few servants from Aiden's house were grilling barbecue.

Even though Anya and Aiden had separated, the relationship between Hana and her family has not changed. Tonight, Diana provided all the ingredients, while Hana was in charge of cooking it.

Diana's sense of smell had recovered a little, although it still couldn't return to perfection. She could taste food and live a normal life. But she could not go back to work as a parfumeur.

Even so, Diana was quite satisfied. At least, she could taste the delicious food.

Esther and Anya were sitting on the living room sofa chatting. They could smell barbecue from outside and hear Tara and Nico's laughter.

"You can still be friends with your ex-husband's nephew," Esther cracked a joke.

Anya only smiled faintly at that.

"Nico is innocent. And I owe him a lot. His relationship with Tara has been very difficult. Tara has no parents. Even though she looks cheerful on the outside, she is actually very sensitive. I feel Nico is the most appropriate companion for her. They should be together, but because of me, they were forced to separate," Anya looked out of the window and saw Tara sitting on a swing with Nico pushing her from behind.

Esther nodded at Anya's words. "I can see that the two of them are very compatible. I'm proud of you because you can still think of them, regardless of what happened to you in the past,"

"I don't have many friends. But they both are dear friends of mine," Anya said with a smile.

"I've heard everything from your mother. Now what are your plans?" Esther asked.

"Apart from preparing for the competition, I intend to take this opportunity to replace my biological parents. Mother had known this for a long time, but she kept it all alone to herself for my sake. Two years ago, she was worried that this news would affect me in the competition so she didn't dare to say it. When she wanted to tell me for the second time, I was pregnant and my relationship with Aiden was strained. She didn't have a chance to say it until I graduated from the academy." 

When she said this, Anya's eyes turned red. "My mother is the best mother in the world."

"Correct. Sister Diana loves you with all her heart. If you replace your parents, don't forget her," Esther said half jokingly.

"My mother is forever my mother. Actually, I don't want to replace my biological parents. But it was my mother who told me to look for them. She is worried that my parents are looking for me," Anya said in a low voice. "I just want to know the truth. Have I really disappeared or abandoned..."

"Living in the dark is not something pleasant. You have to make sure that everything is clear. Do you already know why Aiden divorced you two years ago? Is he suffering from a serious illness and his life is short? But he looks fine," Esther pouted with annoyance.

Hana saw Diana continue to help her cook. She wanted to give Diana the opportunity to let go of her longing for Anya, so she gave Diana a plate of fruit and asked her to help deliver it to Anya.

Diana came with the plate, just as Esther discussed about Aiden.

"Only the strong rule. We are ignored and belittled because we are too weak. Forced to divorce, forced to abort, while they didn't want to give any explanation. It's because we are weak," Diana said as if she was insulting herself. She regretted not being able to provide support for her daughter because she didn't have a strong family background to match Aiden.

"Sis, maybe something happened. Over the past two years, Aiden has never had a relationship with any woman. If not because of illness or because of another woman, maybe there is a reason why he wants to divorce Anya?" Esther said.

Anya could only look at Diana and Esther guessing at each other. She thought for a moment and then decided to tell them everything.

After all, Esther was not an outsider. She was her mother's best friend, like her own family.

"I met Ms. Maria today. She told me everything," Anya got up and took over the plate in her mother's hand. Then, she took her mother's hand to sit on the sofa.

"What did she say? I still can't believe she could do such a cruel thing. That gentle woman forced you to take abortion drugs and killed your child. She's really cruel," Diana took a deep breath.

"We can only see a person's appearance from the outside, but cannot understand what is in her heart. Isn't that the same game that Imel played? In this world, there are many people who look good on the outside but have a cruel heart inside," Esther said coldly.

Anya clasped their hands, trying to calm them down.

"Two years ago, Ms. Maria found her biological child and carried out three DNA tests. The first DNA test was carried out at Tara's grandpa hospital. The second DNA test was carried out by Harris in Hong Kong on Aiden's order. The third DNA test was carried out by the Atmajaya Family. The results of the three tests are the same and Ms. Maria has found her biological daughter," Anya said with a serious expression.

Diana's eyes widened when she heard that. She looked at her daughter's face with fear. "Is that you...?"

Esther immediately closed her mouth.

"Impossible…"
