BXBX NOVEL Chapter 151 - Theft
Aiden was a man with high self-esteem. Of course he would feel hurt when he heard what Raka said about his wife.
Meanwhile, Anya didn\'t want to lose her dignity just to beg Aiden. She didn\'t want to keep begging in front of Aiden after knowing that the man didn\'t want to forgive her even after she tried hard.
She\'d done everything she could. There was no other way but to wait for Aiden\'s anger to subside.
Within days, Anya focused all her attention on Rose Scent. She no longer met Aiden. Although Abdi did not take her to the Rose Scent, she still went on her electric bicycle to the bus stop every day. Then, she would take the bus to a stop near the mall.
Anya spent her lunch and dinner with her co-workers, then she worked overtime until nine at night. After that, she returned home by bus.
Aiden left the house early in the morning. Whenever Anya came down for breakfast, Aiden had already left the house. At night, she could see Aiden sitting in his study as Anya passed the room to go to the guest room.
Anya did not know what Aiden was doing alone in that place. But every time Anya came home and passed the study, her eyes always looked towards Aiden without realizing it.
Aiden still looked handsome as before, but there was no tenderness on his face like when he looked at Anya. The atmosphere around him was creepy. His body seemed to be able to emit a cold aura that would drive anyone thousands of miles away, not as warm as before.
At exactly 10pm, Anya hurried out of Rose Scent to catch the last bus.
Tomorrow, the event at the mall would start. The perfume created by Anya would be launched in three branches of Rose Scent. Everyone spent their time working overtime, preparing everything needed for tomorrow\'s event. That\'s why, Anya also had to come home late at night.
"Sir, Anya just called. She said she had just come home and would be home in forty minutes." Hana said.
Aiden looked at Hana in thought for a moment. Then he said, "Tell Abdi I will go at half past eleven in the night."
"Fine." Hana was very happy. Aiden and Anya had been fighting coldly for several days. Finally, today Aiden intended to make up with Anya.
Meanwhile, Anya was feeling sleepy on the bus. If it weren\'t for Hana calling her and telling her to go home, she would have missed the bus. She was too focused on her job earlier.
When she almost fell asleep, Hana suddenly called her again, "Anya, Aiden told me he was leaving. Looks like he would pick you up." Hana said excitedly.
"Is it true? Did Aiden say it?" Anya happily asked.
"Earlier, after you announced that you were going home, I told Aiden that you were heading to the second bus stop and would be home in forty minutes. Aiden asked Abdi to drive him away. Doesn\'t that mean he wants to pick you up?" Hana said happily.
"I\'m not sure." Anya replied.
"Aiden has already left. He should be arriving at your bus stop soon." Hana said.
Anya\'s heart was beating very fast. Aiden would pick her up. Was that true?
At that time, Aiden\'s car stopped opposite the bus stop, some distance from Anya. He hid while staring at Anya.
These past few days, Anya moved and slept in the guest room because he said that he needed some time alone. However, the first day he didn\'t sleep with Anya, he couldn\'t sleep peacefully.
Every now and then, he would go to the guest room to watch her sleep. Anya was completely unaware that Aiden had come. She fell asleep soundly as if she did not care about their fight.
Once back in his room, Aiden was furious. He kept rolling on the bed, unable to close his eyes. He could only hug his bolster to calm his heart, longing for his wife\'s warmth.
For three days in a row, Anya stopped talking to him. She also did not take the initiative to look for him. Until now, his cold war with Anya had not ended either.
"Sir, the bus has arrived." Abdi said when he saw Anya\'s bus coming. Aiden just nodded while waiting for Anya to get off the bus.
As soon as she got off the bus, Anya turned right and left to find Aiden\'s whereabouts. Hana said, Aiden had already left to pick her up earlier. He should have arrived.
Were the roads jammed? Why hadn\'t Aiden appeared yet?
From the car, Aiden saw Anya looking around. Seeing Anya\'s figure, Abdi immediately asked, "Sir, do you want to come down to pick up Madame? Or should I just go down?"
"Don\'t come down yet. Look who Anya is waiting for." Aiden sat in the car calmly, staring at Anya.
His wife was looking for someone. Who was she waiting for this late?
She always said that she was out of touch with Raka and would never see him again. If Anya was really waiting for Raka, if Raka was really a man who would come to meet Anya, Aiden would drown them both in his house\'s lake!
Time flew. Anya was still waiting for Aiden\'s arrival while Aiden was also waiting for Anya.
Anya waited, waited and waited. Until it was eleven o\'clock in the evening. Finally, she accepted the fact that Aiden would not come. It looked like Hana got it wrong. Aiden didn\'t come to get her.
Anya crossed the road to the flower shop, where she left her bicycle. She gave up waiting and decided to go home by riding a bicycle.
"Sir, madam crossed the street and went to the flower shop up front. Are we going to catch up with her?" Abdi asked.
"Move near the shop. Be careful not to let Anya find out. Find out where Anya is going." Aiden ordered.
Anya crossed the road and stood in front of the flower shop, where she had parked her bicycle. However, her bicycle was no longer there. Her bike was gone.
Her bicycle key had been broken by force and laid in the place where she parked her bike.
Anya could only be pensive on the side of the road, looking at the empty parking lot. Someone had stolen her bicycle!
Abdi had turned and headed towards Anya. But he kept his distance and stopped at the intersection near the flower shop.
"Madame seemed to be calling someone. Do we continue to follow her?" Abdi felt tired. Didn\'t Aiden want to pick up Anya from work? Why were they circling like this? Even though Anya was in front of their eyes.
Aiden stared at his cell phone. Anya didn\'t call him. It made him feel disappointed. Who was she trying to call on the phone?
After a while, a police patrol car came and stopped near Anya.
"Sir, looks like there\'s been a problem. I will go out to find out." Abdi immediately got out of the car and met Anya.
Aiden just sat in the car and saw Anya\'s figure standing under the street lights from a distance. She was talking to the police.
Aiden thought back to when Anya stood at the bus stop as if waiting for someone. He restrained himself from coming down and approached Anya. He couldn\'t imagine Anya betraying him behind his back.
After speaking for a while, Anya followed the policeman to a convenience store to check the CCTV on the street.
The flower shop closed at half past ten and left Anya\'s electric bicycle outside. She thought the bike would be safe because it had a lock. But at half past eleven, someone came and stole it.
At that time, Anya was still standing at the bus stop waiting for Aiden to arrive so she didn\'t immediately head to the flower shop.
If she had gone to the flower shop and got her bicycle, she would have found a thief trying to take her bicycle. Maybe she could thwart the theft.
"Sir, can I still find my bicycle?" Anya asked with a sad face.
"We will try to find it. If there\'s any news, we\'ll let you know right away." The policeman saw Anya about to cry and asked, "Kid, where is your house? Do you want us to take you home?" He saw Anya\'s small figure as if he saw his own daughter so that the police felt sorry for Anya.
Anya just lowered her head, unable to hold back her tears. Her mouth was tight and tears rolled down her cheeks.
"Kid, we will try to find it. Do not be sad!" The policeman said frantically.
"Thank you for your help." Anya looked down and tried to hold back her tears.
Abdi who listened to everything from afar immediately ran to the car and reported to Aiden, "Sir, Madame\'s bicycle has been stolen in front of the flower shop. Looks like Madame is so sad that she cries."
