BXBX NOVEL Chapter 719 - Crime
"The important thing is that you are back. Do you want to go again?" Aiden asked.
"Why? Don't you want me to go again?" Anya smiled. Her hands were still tightly hugging Aiden's neck.
"If I said I couldn't stay away from you, would you still go?" Aiden looked at her seriously.
Anya shook her head. "I have a reason why I have to go."
"What if I don't let you go?" Aiden whispered softly.
"You will respect all my decisions. And I'm only going to be away for a few months. Not long," Anya replied.
There were so many things Aiden wanted to ask her, but in the end he decided to hold back. "Is there something you have to do?"
"I'm working on my father's spice garden outside of town. He has promised to supply spices to my school later. I can't go now because it will be the rainy season soon." Anya did not hide the reason from Aiden.
Her choice to work on her father's garden was indeed very suitable for growing spices. But Anya was worried that floods would be inevitable during the rainy season.
Not to mention the possible landslides. If it were to happen then all of her efforts would have been in vain.
Anya thought so much about the garden that she neglected her own safety. And Aiden was the first to worry about her.
What would she do if the disaster actually occurred?
"If you want to go, I will not forbid you. But you have to bring some bodyguards with you. For safety," Aiden said firmly.
"Aiden, you sent someone to protect me or to watch over me?" Anya asked.
"I did it because I care for you," Aiden insisted.
"But..."
"If you don't agree, I won't let you go," the man replied.
Anya shook her head. "This is absurd. You always try to hide everything from me, but you want to know everything about me. With your bodyguard, you will know what I eat, what I say and whatever I do, right?" The more Anya thought about it, the more she felt that she had lost her freedom.
"Don't be stubborn. I just wanted to protect you," said Aiden.
"Don't use me as your excuse. All of this is only your wish, without asking for my consent," Anya said irritably.
"Angry?" Aiden stroked her head gently. "The rainy season will come soon. You must be busy taking care of the garden and it is my job to protect you."
"Don't worry, I still love my life. You, Arka and Aksa are still there waiting for me at home. I will definitely come back," Anya promised.
"When?" Aiden wanted reassurance from her.
"August... I will go home in August," said Anya.
August was still three months away.
"It's too long..." Aiden protested.
"Aiden..." Anya hugged his arm and tried to persuade him.
"It's no use persuading me. I disagree!" Aiden didn't want to give up.
"Only three months. Don't you want to wait for me?" Anya pursed her lips and complained.
"I've been waiting for you for several months. I can't see you and don't know how you are. And now you asked me to wait three more months. Anya, do you really trust me? Aren't you afraid that other women will snatch me from you?" Aiden held Anya's hand. "Do you believe me? Or do you no longer care about me?"
"I trust you. I heard that my cousin is interested in you," Anya said on purpose.
"I was nice to her just because she is your cousin. She said she's a dancer and wanted to open a dance school here," said Aiden.
"I know. She has chosen a place, right in front of my perfume school. Later, I will find a lot of male students so that my students can find a lover from the opposite school. Aren't all dancers beautiful and have great bodies?" Anya replied with a chuckle.
Aiden laughed too. "So your students will not only get education and employment, but also the opportunity to find a life partner?"
"Yes, I was planning to find male students for my school. Everyone thought that women are the only market for perfume and aromatherapy. But if men are involved in the making, wouldn't they be able to attract women more easily?" Anya blinked her eyes. "Recently, I've been trying to make lipstick with a floral scent that is quite long lasting. I'll release it later."
"Looks like you've been happy without me lately?" Aiden teased.
"Let me go. I'll be back in three months," Anya shook Aiden's hand and whined to her husband.
Aiden's eyes narrowed and darkened as he stared at Anya's face. "Stay with me tonight. If you want to, I will let you go," he said covertly, but Anya knew what he meant.
Her face immediately flushed red and then she patted Aiden's hand embarrassedly. "What are you trying to do?"
"I just want to make love to you. I don't want to do it with other women," Aiden said bluntly. His lips were wearing a charming smile as he looked at Anya with love.
Anya briefly kissed his lips and laughed. "I have no place to stay tonight. If you want to hold me then… "
The temptation made Aiden really turned on. "Really…?"
How could Anya not know what Aiden was thinking right now?
But now they were in the bridal dressing room. How could they make love in such a place? If someone came in, what could they do?
Anya laughed and interrupted Aiden. "Don't think anything weird. Now go. I am hungry!"
Aiden looked into Anya's beautiful eyes. His little wife looked at him with a smile, unlike when she was still depressed. Her eyes were truly shining, looking like the stars scattered in the sky.
"My guard will escort you to the presidential suite on the top floor. I'll order a meal for you. Wait for me there, don't go anywhere!" Aiden said.
"I want a steak and a glass of wine!" Anya said, looking spoiled.
Aiden put back the hat on Anya's head and the mask on her face. He led her out of the room and told his bodyguard to escort her to a room on the top floor. After that, Aiden returned to the main hall.
Indah could not find Anya, but she felt that the figure she had seen was very similar to her daughter.
"Mother, are you looking for someone?" Aiden asked when he saw Indah looking around like she was looking for someone.
Indah looked awkward. "Maybe it's just me," she said.
"Anya came here earlier. After the show is over, she will stay and have dinner together. So don't go home yet. Come and join our dinner with father," said Aiden.
"Is Anya back?" Indah looked happy. "Thank you for telling me. You guys eat, I can join next time,"
Aiden approached Maria and asked her to replace him to welcome the guests with Ivan. After learning that Anya had come, Maria happily took the job.
Aiden wanted to accompany Anya and did not want to stay longer at the event.
After arriving at Aiden's room, Anya immediately took a warm bath. Aiden entered just as Anya came out with a loose bathrobe.
The man's eyes fell on the slipping bathrobe, revealing the woman's smooth neck.
"This is really a crime…" Aiden whispered.
