Chapter 687 - Matchmaker
"It does not matter. I still like you even if you are stupid," while carrying Aksa in his hand, Aiden approached Anya and said in a low voice, "It\'s fine if you can\'t tell Arka and Aksa apart. But it will be troublesome if Arka and Aksa\'s wives can\'t distinguish them," said Aiden.
Anya frowned and muttered. "That\'s true. What if their wives can\'t recognize them?"
"Even if their looks and faces are the same, their personalities are definitely different. There\'s no way they won\'t be able to recognize them. When they get older, there must be something that can make them different," said Tara.
"When I was child, I raised chickens with my mother. To differentiate between ours and my neighbor\'s, we dye the feathers. I talked to Aiden about giving a tattoo in the shape of a mole near Aksa\'s eyebrow, but he didn\'t agree," Anya said with a frown.
"You can\'t be such an irresponsible mother. Just because you can\'t tell them apart, doesn\'t mean you can give them tattoos," at the same time, Hana pushed Diana\'s wheelchair and helped her out of the room.
Anya was not offended by her mother\'s warning. Instead she laughed. "I am just kidding."
Diana couldn\'t sit too long, so she only wanted to greet the guests. After that, she would return to her room again.
"Don\'t worry, mom. I will definitely be able to tell Arka and Aksa apart later," Anya said with a smile.
"I know. Alright then, enjoy your party. I just wanted to go out because I heard you guys have a great chat. After this, I will return to my room." Diana\'s condition was actually not good enough to be discharged from the hospital.
But Anya\'s mood was still unstable and her depression was getting worse. Diana did not hesitate to go home and stay with her daughter, even though she was still not strong enough.
"Merry Christmas, Auntie," Raka approached Diana and greeted her.
"Raka, how is your mother and father?" Diana asked.
When they were neighbors, Diana and Irena had a fairly close relationship. However, after Diana divorced from Deny and her face was damaged by the explosion, she stopped to meet anyone and shut herself up in her house.
"My parents are fine. Thank you for asking," Raka said politely.
"I want to see the children," Diana said with a smile.
Aiden immediately brought Aksa closer to her. Diana couldn\'t touch or carry her two grandchildren but just looking at them made her very happy.
Della also immediately brought Arka closer, "Auntie, this is Arka."
"Della, are you here too?" Diana was very happy to see Della.
Everyone present was surprised to find that Diana and Della knew each other. "How do you know each other?"
"Della often helps me to sell flowers in the garden. That\'s why I know her," said Diana.
"That\'s right. Only Raka is an outsider here. Raka, what do you think about Della? You can join this big family too, you know," said Nico.
Diana looked at Arka in Della\'s arms. "Arka\'s face is a little red. Maybe he peed."
"I\'m sure he had a bowel movement. I can smell it," Nadine frowned.
Anya immediately covered her nose with her hand. Since her smell was much more sensitive than that of ordinary people, she could smell that scent more clearly.
"You…. That\'s your own child," Diana teased her daughter.
Aiden immediately called Arka and Aksa\'s babysitters to take them back upstairs and give them a bath. After coming back downstairs again, they finally smelled good.
After chatting for a long time, Diana finally decided to return to her room because she didn\'t want to be tired.
Arka and Aksa were in their strollers, watching the adults chat while eating. This was their first Christmas since they were born, so Anya wanted to invite them to celebrate together.
The atmosphere was very festive and fun.
Since it was drizzling outside, they all sat on the terrace overlooking the garden while drinking tea and eating fruit.
At that Christmas party, the most silent and calm ones were Harris and Della.
Harris was used to being quiet and Della seemed to erase her presence there.
Nadine and Tara were seen chatting excitedly, as were Nico and Raka. Even though Raka was a calm man, he could also go crazy when he was with Nico.
Della could see a new side of Raka when he was with Nico. So far, Raka had always been serious and strict with her. But when he was with Nico, Raka looked much more childish, like boys in general.
The drizzle made the terrace floor a little slippery.
Unintentionally, Nico nudged Della and made her fall. Della fell near the chair so that her head hit the end of the chair quite hard.
Raka immediately got up and approached her. He helped her to stand up from the floor and then patted the dirty part of her skirt. "Do you feel hurt anywhere? Are you okay?"
Della blinked her eyes repeatedly, trying to endure the pain in her head. But in the end, she could only lower her head and rest her head on Raka\'s shoulder without saying anything.
"Looks like the impact was quite hard," Anya looked at Nico.
"Are you alright? Sorry I didn\'t mean it," Nico was really worried. At first, he didn\'t like Della. But he would never intentionally harm a woman like this.
"I\'m fine," Della smiled forcefully. With Raka\'s help, she returned to the living room.
When he saw the two men leave, Nico whispered to Tara, "Did you see Della leaning her head on Raka\'s shoulder? Raka didn\'t reject her."
"Do you want to be a matchmaker now?"
Nadine invited Harris to go inside with her and see Della\'s condition. Currently, Hana was helping her to clean the wound on her head.
Luckily, it was only a small scratch and didn\'t bleed. However, her head might be a little swollen from the impact.
"Della, are you okay?" As a future sister-in-law, Nadine tried to pay attention to Della and make her comfortable in this house. "I\'ll beat up my brother later. How could he hurt a girl!"
Della laughed at Nadine, "I\'m fine."
"You can\'t be careless. What if you have a scar on your face?" Hana put a cold towel on Nadine\'s head to reduce the swelling.
Seeing the heavy rain outside, Raka realized that they had to go home immediately, "We have to go home. If the rain continues like this, we could be trapped here later,"
"Don\'t come home now. The rain is very heavy and it is flooded outside. You better stay at my house tonight," said Nico.
"But…"
"It\'s dangerous to drive when it rains. After all, your car can\'t cross the flood, right?" Nico continued to urge Raka and force him.
"Della, if you are embarrassed to stay at my brother\'s house, how about staying with us? Your brother and I will always welcome you," Nadine immediately nudged Harris.
Harris just nodded. It was the most polite answer he could give.
Even though he knew that Della was his younger sister, he had absolutely no feelings for her nor his father.
Della looked confused.
One hand she didn\'t want to stay in Nico\'s place. But on the other hand, living with her brother whom she didn\'t know would also feel awkward.
Then, who should she choose?
"Ah? I…" Della didn\'t know what to do.
"Let her stay at Nico\'s house with me," Raka finally decided. There was no way he could part with Della, not after he took her to this place today.
Della was his subordinate now. So she had to follow him wherever he went.
