"Anya, I heard you just launched your perfu and it was sold out. Congratulations!" Raka said it sincerely.
They were standing at the door of the Aiden House. The lights in front of Aiden's house made the shadow of his body look long.
Ti seed to go back to three years ago. In the sumr, they held hands while walking along the lake. They chased in the flower garden and kissed under the bergamot tree.
But ti couldn't co back. The future would continue. They had their own lives and so things must be forgotten, including their past.
"Raka, I'm very happy to be able to share this joy with you. My perfu sells well and the custor response is very good." Said Anya with a smile, "I'm one step closer to my dream."
"I know. You worked so hard. I know you will succeed." The smile on Raka's face suddenly froze when he saw the wound on Anya's forehead, "Are you hurt?"
Raka reached out his hand to touch Anya's forehead.
From the second floor's window, Aiden witnessed all of this. He really wanted to run down and twist Raka's hand. Seeing Raka's hand that was about to touch Anya's head, Aiden couldn't help himself and tightly clenched his fist.
Anya imdiately stepped back and avoided Raka's helping hand. She laughed lightly and said, "I'm fine!"
Raka's hand stuck in the air awkwardly. He trembled slightly, then pulled his hand back, "How did you get hurt on your head?"
"Soone ca and made a scene at the shop today. I accidentally got hit by the perfu bottle. My forehead is only slightly swollen. It's not a big problem." Said Anya while smiling faintly, "Aiden is at ho. I won't invite you in. How about we chat in the park for a bit?"
"Okay." Raka also felt that standing in front of the house was not the right decision. If soone took their picture while they were standing together, strange gossip would erge and damage Anya's reputation.
Raka himself was a single man. No one would insult him. But Anya was different. Anya was soone's wife. Or rather, everyone knew her as Aiden's lover. If she was seen alone with another man ...
Anya walked first in front of Raka and Raka followed her from behind.
From a distance, Anya saw a golden swing. A swing that Aiden made for her.
She sat on the swing and held the pole with a smile on her face, "Aiden made this swing for ." She said.
Raka walked behind the swing and pushed Anya's body slowly. They seem to go back to their childhood, when they were two close friends.
"Is he nice to you?" Raka asked.
"Aiden respects , supports and frees to do whatever I want. He doesn't restrain . He wasn't even embarrassed when he found out that I was working part ti. Aiden is a good man." Anya said with a happy smile on her face.
"Anya, marriage to a rich family is not as simple as you think. Aiden must want sothing from you so he wants to marry you. Even though I still don't know, I'll keep trying to find it." Raka said in a serious voice.
Anya smiled as she shook her head, "The story between and Aiden is a little complicated, but I know he is sincere to . I was just a poor student and my mother was in debt. What can he get from ?"
"I have no proof right now so you won't believe . But don't believe him too quickly. Even though we can't be together, I still wish you all the best. I want you to be happy." Raka replied.
"We grew up together. When you were a child, you took care of like your own sister. You protected when my father hit . Our youth were beautiful, but the situation is different now. At the hospital, Raisa set up. But you did not stand up for and try to straighten it out like a brother. You even challenged Aiden and corner him so he can divorce . I'm really mad at you."
"You still visited when I was sick, even though you knew Aiden would be mad at you. I was touched at that ti. I thought it was the only chance to help you regain your freedom. That's why I provoked Aiden. I'm sorry." Raka lowered his head in sha.
Anya's heart felt very calm. She knew Raka would never harm her. Whatever Raka did, he did it for Anya.
But he ignored one thing. He ignored Anya's wishes. Never once did Raka ask what Anya wanted. He imdiately decided for himself that he had to free Anya from Aiden.
"Raka, my life is very happy now. I also hope you find your happiness." Anya said in a low voice.
The swing she was sitting on was a compromise from Aiden.
Her husband even allowed her to et Raka alone while he waited in her room.
Aiden tried to change, for Anya's sake. He didn't want to burden Anya. He wanted to protect her, make her feel safe and give her whatever she wanted.
Such a man… Anya would never find another man like that even in the next life.
"Do you love him?" Raka asked.
Instead of answering, Anya said, "Raka, I was never angry with you for what happened. You don't need to bla yourself. Now we have separated. We better wish each other the best."
"Anya, I can't forget you. Without you, I can never be happy. Are you afraid your heart will waver if you accept , or Aiden threatening you to use ?" Raka asked.
"Raka, this swing used to be a cage. Aiden said, if I get in touch with you again, he will lock you up in this place and drown you in the lake. Now, the cage has turned into a swing for ."
"Even though Raisa purposely made pass out and put on your bed, Aiden decided to believe in . I will not waver and choose you. Aiden doesn't have to threaten either. Because the person I care about right now is him, not you."
Anya could tell that her words sounded cruel. But the words were sincere from her heart. Right now, the man in her heart was Aiden, her husband.
Raka's heart ached. He could feel Anya's sincere feelings for Aiden.
"Anya, three years have passed, but I still love you. I can not forget you. I can't forget our relationship. Why don't you just go with ? Let's run away from this place." Raka said with a sad face.
"Raka, this is my house. I will never leave Aiden. I'm really happy now. Please do not bother anymore."
However, no matter what Anya said, Raka was adamant, "I will not give up. Wait for . I'm going to find out what Aiden's goal is to marry you. At that ti, you will be willing to go with ."
"Raka, don't be selfish. Have you ever thought about what I want? I've said it clearly. If you keep bothering , I will never see you again." Anya imdiately got up and left the park without looking back.
At that ti, she just wanted to et Aiden imdiately.
She ran to his room and did not find Aiden. She ran to the study, but her husband wasn't there either.
"Aiden, where are you?" Anya shouted as she stood in the middle of the corridor.
Aiden walked out of one of the rooms looking at her with a smile, "I'm in your perfu room."
When Anya saw Aiden, she imdiately ran towards him. She threw his body into Aiden's embrace and wrapped her arms around Aiden's waist tightly.
"Hug !" She said, spoiled.
Aiden chuckled when he heard tha, "How was your conversation with Raka?"
"I told you that the person I care about right now is you, not him. But it looks like he refuses to give up. He wanted to find out why you married . Maybe he needed ti to think. I won't see him again. Don't invite him to a barbecue. I don't want to et him. Okay?" Anya hugged Aiden while looking up at her husband's handso face.
