After two years of separation, Aiden and Anya could finally get back together. Anya was pregnant, but then Aiden suddenly experienced such a horrible incident.
Even though Maria had told her that the bullet did not hit the dangerous part, Anya was still worried about her husband.
Aiden hadn't come out of the operating room, making Anya anxious for not hearing any news about him again.
Was the operation successful?
Would Aiden be alright?
Maria tried to calm Anya down by telling her various things. "Let me tell you about Nico and Aiden's childhood. Since childhood, Nico has been flirtatious with girls. When he was in elementary school, he invited his girl classmate to come over to the house. But when she saw Aiden, the girl immediately liked Aiden. Nico kept crying and screaming because..."
"Mother, why are you telling us that?" Nico arrived just as Maria told Anya about the incident. He immediately stopped her.
Tara was very interested in the story more than Anya. She asked, "Then, how ..."
"Then..."
"Mother, stop. Uncle has come out of the operating room. The operation went smoothly. He's been moved to his room," Nico interrupted his mother's story once again.
"I want to see Aiden," Anya immediately removed the blanket and rose to her feet.
"Don't move too much. Doctor said you have to stay in bed," Tara said, stopping her.
"Let Anya see Aiden. Nico, please get me a wheelchair," said Maria.
Harris moved first and immediately got a wheelchair from a nurse.
Nico walked to the side of the bed and carried Anya to the wheelchair. After that, he took a blanket to keep Anya's body warm.
"Harris, you push the wheelchair. I don't believe in Nico," said Maria.
Maria knew her son very well. Nico was very careless. Maria didn't want something to happen to Anya so it's better if Nico wasn't the one behind her wheelchair.
When Aiden couldn't walk before, it was Harris who always pushed his wheelchair. He was very experienced and would be very careful.
"Mother, am I not your child?" Nico grumbled irritably.
"If I had to choose between you and Harris, I would not choose you of course," said Maria.
"Sis, Harris will also be family soon. I mean, son-in-law…" Anya said with a smile.
"Auntie, what are you talking about!" Nadine's face immediately turned red.
Harris gave Nadine his jacket. When the girl reached out to accept it, Harris took the time to briefly grasp Nadine's hand. Then, the two of them looked at each other with a smile.
"Ohh! I saw them looking at each other lovingly. You better get married right away!" Tara teased.
Nadine used the jacket she just received from Harris to cover her face in embarrassment.
Nico was annoyed to see that. Even though he knew that Harris was a good and responsible man, he was still not willing to let his younger sister marry Harris.
"Do you want to live hard together with Harris?" Nico said sarcastically.
Maria immediately hit his arm hard. "How dare you say that! Now show me your uncle's room."
Harris rolled up his shirt sleeves and immediately pushed Anya's wheelchair with both hands. They came out of Anya's room together and headed to Aiden's room.
At the door of Aiden's room, they saw Keara sitting in a wheelchair, fighting with Ivan and making a fuss because he wanted to meet Aiden.
Ivan's face looked cold when he talked to her, as if they had absolutely no connection in the past. He immediately ordered his guards to expel Keara from there.
Keara's assistant immediately pushed her wheelchair towards the lift. When passing Anya, her eyes looked so evil.
Aiden was hurt because of Keara's doings, but the evil woman still dared to look at her with such a gaze.
Anya felt she couldn't accept it. Anger rose in her heart and she immediately stopped Keara. "Stop!"
Keara glared at her with the same furious gaze. She came because she was so worried about Aiden. Even though Ivan stopped her, Keara already knew that Aiden's operation was going well.
The important thing for her was that Aiden was safe.
Keara didn't care about Anya's condition at all.
"Let's go," Keara said to her assistant.
But Anya immediately held the handle of Keara's wheelchair and said, "Keara, if I see you approach Aiden again, I won't just let you go."
"Really? Do you even have the right to say that to me?" Keara looked at her boldly. She even dared to insult Anya in front of everyone.
Maria stepped forward and slapped Keara's face very hard.
PLAQUE!
"This slap is for when you made me mistake my daughter for her. I almost believed Anya was my daughter for the rest of my life."
"It's not my fault. I don't understand what you're talking about!" Keara held the side of her face with reddened eyes.
But her miserable appearance did not touch Maria's heart. She slapped the other side of Keara's face with all her strength. "This slap is for the innocent child who didn't get to be born in this world and because you dared to hurt Aiden today. Remember, the Atmajaya Family will never forgive you. You can run away anywhere, but we will definitely take revenge for all your deeds."
Keara immediately scolded her assistant for not defending her. "Are you stupid? Why do you let me get slapped like this?!"
Nico and Tara would never defend Keara, just like Harris and Nadine. Even though Anya was very angry right now, she tried hard to hold back her emotions for the sake of her child and Aiden.
Finally, it was Maria who vented all her anger by slapping Keara's face twice. Seeing this, Anya felt much relieved.
"Keara, I've warned you. If you dare to approach the Atmajaya Family again, You'll have to deal with me," Maria said with a cold snort. Then she turned to Harris, "Let's go."
In the past two years, Maria had been drowning in regret and sorrow for what she had done. Once she knew that the masterminds were Toni and Keara, how could she remain silent?
Maria was finally back. Even though she had not fully recovered like her old self, she was still a member of the Atmajaya Family. She currently held the highest status as a woman in the family.
She was not afraid of the Pratama Family at all, nor when she had to fight Keara.
Ivan was standing in the corridor, witnessing all the commotion.
Maria looked at Ivan and felt a little bad for him. After all, Keara used to be his ex-fiancée. Plus, Maria didn't know that Ivan didn't love Keara.
"Ivan, I..."
"Sis, I have nothing to do with Keara. You have done the right thing," as soon as Ivan said this, Nico was surprised.
"Did I hear correctly?" Nico did not think that his gentle uncle could do such cruelty.
"Keara deserves those slaps. Her parents did not raise her properly. So someone must teach her a lesson. Does she think that the Atmajaya family won't touch her just because she is pregnant with a child?" Tara said irritably.
Anya didn't say anything. Her eyes were fixed on the corridor behind Ivan. She wanted to see Aiden soon.
"Aiden's room is over there," Ivan immediately escorted them.
After the surgery, Aiden was still unconscious. But his vital signs were safe.
Harris then pushed Anya's wheelchair to the side of the bed.
Anya stretched out her hand to grab Aiden's hand. The man's hand was no longer as cold as when Aiden laid helplessly on the floor.
His hand felt warm…
"Don't worry. Aiden is fine. After the anesthesia wears off, he will wake up," Ivan gently patted Anya's shoulder.
