BXBX NOVEL Chapter 785 - Pitting The Sheep
"I'll come get you."
Anya wanted to tell Aiden there was no need to pick her up, but without waiting for her answer, the man had hung up the phone.
She had no other choice but to keep her phone back. When she turned her head, she saw Rudi was looking at her with a look she couldn't understand.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Anya asked.
"I didn't expect to see you like this. Very interesting indeed," said Rudi half-jokingly.
Anya laughed at that and replied, "Did you not see how I was when we were still in France? At that time, I lost my child and I poured all of my love on Alisa."
"Right. But you look different in front of your husband. Different, I mean, in a good sense. I'm glad you found your happiness," Rudi said with a smile.
"Anya!" When Aiden arrived, he saw Rudi and Anya sitting in the garden alone chatting. The man was immediately jealous.
"How come you came so fast?" Anya looked at her husband in surprise.
It felt like she had just hung up the phone, but suddenly Aiden appeared in front of her. Did Aiden fly here?
The man was on his way home and almost reached it. When he heard that Anya was at her mother's house, he wanted to pick her up and go home with her.
But Anya said Jonathan was there. Previously, Jonathan was with Rudi. Aiden immediately guessed that Rudi was also at Diana's house.
He rushed to pick up Anya and actually found Rudi there.
When Aiden met Rudi earlier, he had warned him to stay away from Anya and Jenny. But Rudi doesn't seem to take his threat seriously.
"Oh, is Aiden coming?" Rudi stood up to greet him.
Aiden just looked at him coldly. "You are also here…"
"Me and Anya are old friends. Her mother is also my mother. I came to see her," Rudi said boldly.
"Your mother?" Aiden's eyes narrowed with a dangerous look.
Rudi didn't seem bothered in the slightest. His eyes were clear, as if he was not afraid of Aiden's knife-sharp gaze. "Right. The view of this house is also good. I want to spend the new year accompanying Anya's mother."
Anya laughed, "Alisa will stay here for the new year. But I'm not sure your parents will approve of you spending the new year here."
"Looks like you don't take my words seriously," Aiden's gaze was as cold as ice.
"So that I won't come near Anya and Jenny again? I have the right to be friends with anyone. Even though Anya is your wife, you have no right to get in the way of who she wants to be friends with, right?" Rudi said.
Aiden's lips curled into a thin, sinister smile. "I don't mind if you want to be friends. But it seems that you have other intentions.
He wrapped his arms around Anya's waist and brought his wife's body closer in his arms. After that, he said in a low voice so that Anya could hear him. "He lives with Jessica."
Anya was surprised and then looked at Rudi. "Your taste is very unique, huh?"
"I can hear you. Don't talk about it. We're only business partners. I don't live with her," Rudi immediately explained.
"She lives at your house," Aiden emphasized again.
The expression on Rudi's face seemed to change slightly. "She likes my house and wants to live there. But I got out of there."
"Before you left the house, you lived with her there. Someone took a photo of you together," Aiden said.
"You guys really live together? Looks like you should have your eyes checked," Anya quipped.
Aiden then looked at Rudi with a sneer. "Do you think that if my father found out about your relationship with Jessica, he would still like you?"
"I have nothing to do with Jessica. You're exaggerating." Rudi felt a little irritated.
"It doesn't matter even if you two aren't sharing any relationship. What kind of a man has no relationship with a woman but lets her live in his house anyway? I don't care who you date. But don't come near my wife and niece again," Aiden said. After that, he added, "I built this house. I hope you don't show your face in this place again."
"Aiden, why do you hate me so much? Aren't you confident enough with your current life? I seem to be haunting you, huh?" Rudi looked at him defiantly.
"Don't think too highly of yourself," Aiden's lips curled up into a sneer.
Anya shook her head looking at how these grown ass men act like children. "Stop it, don't fight. Can you guys make peace, for my sake?" No matter how stupid Anya is, she knows that Aiden really hates Rudi and Rudi doesn't hesitate to challenge her husband either.
Anya took Aiden's hand and pulled him closer to Rudi. "Rudi, I am a person who cares more about my family than friends. If you want to be friends with me, you have to be on good terms with my husband."
Rudi looked annoyed and said impatiently, "It's not that I don't want to be friends, but it's your husband who doesn't want me to live in peace. We just met. He warned me not to approach you and Jenny. After that, he ordered someone to tow my car. I've never met someone this bad before."
"Why are you blaming me when you parked haphazardly yourself?" Aiden said.
Anya laughed hearing that. But she could already guess what had happened.
She caressed Aiden's hand gently. "Aiden, I know Rudi is a little bit cheeky. But actually he is a good person.
"Don't you just want some land? Jessica deliberately created an illusion and made you target me. Until now, the land was still in her hands. I was kind enough to her and gave my house to her, but I haven't got the land. Plus I have offended you," said Rudi.
Aiden's eyebrows rose slightly at this. "You haven't got it yet?"
"The land was a gift from her family for her wedding. If you want the land, you must marry her. How can I get it?" said Rudi.
Anya nodded. "You have a good family background and your appearance is pretty okay. No wonder Jessica wants to marry you. But why is she looking for my husband?"
"She wanted to know if I could offer a higher price," Aiden said.
"You can't divorce Anya and marry Jessica, but you can pay a high price and also a satisfying reward. I'm sure she included additional conditions, right?" Rudi looked at Aiden with an evil smile.
"What are the additional conditions?" Anya asked curiously.
Aiden didn't want to answer. He just said, "It doesn't matter. I've already rejected her."
"Anya, didn't you have time to go out of town? Jessica is afraid that your husband will be alone. She wants to accompany Aiden one night and sell the land to him," said Rudi carelessly, not worried about causing a ruckus.
Anya immediately felt angry when she heard it.
She was already worried when Jessica looked for Aiden. But she didn't expect Jessica to take it to that extreme!
"You can't see her again next time. That woman is cunning!" Anya said angrily.
"I didn't say that. Don't worry." Aiden hugged her closer and stroked her shoulder.
Anya raised her head and looked at the man with a smile. "Jessica deliberately wants to pit you and Rudi against each other. Why don't you guys cooperate and work together? Are you going to let her manipulate you?"
"Aiden, can we be friends? Me and Anya are really just friends. I didn't mean to do anything bad. As for Jenny… I don't intend to do anything if she isn't really interested in me," Rudi took the initiative to speak up first.
