Aiden Atmajaya, son of conglomerate Bima Atmajaya and also CEO of Atmajaya Group, was caught in a hotel with a woman.
The news headlines were the hottest news since the morning and caught everyone’s attention. How come? Aiden Atmajaya was a very famous male figure in this city. He rarely appeared in public and was very careful about keeping his name. But this morning his name suddenly was on the main page of the news because of an affair allegation!
Aiden Atmajaya already had a fiancée, but he was in a hotel with another woman!
“It turns out that all men are the same! Disgusting!”
“Isn’t that the flirting woman’s fault? Surely that woman wants his wealth! You cheap woman!”
“Natali Tedjasukmana should have canceled her engagement. Why be engaged to a cheater!”
“So true. Natali doesn’t deserve this kind of treatment!”
“Aiden Atmajaya is really blind. What is Natali lacking? Beautiful, rich, elegant … He was with a cheap woman instead!”
The news page was filled with comments. All of those comments were aimed at insulting Aiden and the cheap woman who was seducing him. Not a few people also support Natali and pity her.
Currently, Aiden was on his way to his company. He was wearing a black long-sleeved shirt, while his jacket was neatly folded beside him. As usual, sunglasses perched on his face, making him look even cooler. Unfortunately, everyone thought that Aiden was blind, so they all felt that the glasses were meant to cover up his weakness.
He sat in the middle seat casually, looking out the car window. He was with his trusted driver, Abdi, and also Harris who was sitting in the front seat. Harris read out the news that was widely circulated on the internet as well as comments that cornered Aiden while waiting for orders from his master.
“Sir, would you like to erase all this news?” asked Harris.
As one of the influential families in this city, deleting news was not difficult for Aiden. However, Aiden just shook his head.
“Leave it alone.” Aiden didn’t care about this news. After all, with this news, it also helped him to cancel his engagement to Natali without having to find excuses. Besides, everyone would know that he had a relationship with Anya. Anya was his!
“Just announce that I canceled my engagement to Natali.” Said Aiden.
Harris hesitated for a moment at Aiden’s words. Canceling the engagement was a big decision. Not only would their engagement be canceled, but the cooperation between the two families would be in chaos.
“Sir, canceling the engagement is a risky decision. Don’t you want to think about it again?” Harris tried to suppress his fear and advised Aiden.
Aiden just waved his hand to answer Harris’s advice and told him to leave. “Find out complete information about the woman who was with me last night!”
Meanwhile, at the residence of the Tedjasukmana family, Natali’s mother, Mona Wijaya, saw the latest news on her cellphone. Her hands were shaking as she read what had happened. She gripped her wine glass tightly as if she wanted to throw and break it.
She was furious!
She had struggled to get a rich and powerful man to be her son-in-law, but all her plans fell apart just because of a bitch!
The current condition of her husband’s company was not very good. The marriage agreement was the only way that they can continue to enjoy abundant wealth and comfortable life. However, everything was messed up because of that woman!
She immediately banged on his daughter’s room, “Nat, what happened?”
Natali was clearly feeling very happy. The plan worked.
She didn’t want to have a blind husband like Aiden. Although Aiden was indeed very handsome and manly, what’d be the point of good looks if the man was handicapped. She had to take care of this man all her life and her friends would humiliate her because she had a blind husband.
With the plan she had drawn up, she could get out of his gloomy future, without looking cruel. In fact, people would sympathize and support her. After that, she could look for a man in her heart who was handsome, attractive, and certainly not flawed.
Not a single person knew this plan, including her mother. Her mother was too mad about wealth and sacrificed her only daughter to marry a blind man in order to ensure their wealth.
Money, money, and money, that was all in his mother’s brain!
However, Natali did not want to be blamed by her father and mother. She must pretend that she was the one who had been betrayed in this relationship and get sympathy from everyone.
When she heard a knock on the door to her room, she immediately pinched her hand so hard that tears began to pool in her eyelids. She opened the door to the room while crying uncontrollably.
“Ma … Anya …” She said stammering, immediately hugging her mother.
Hearing that woman’s name once again made Mona furious. She didn’t even realize that her daughter was acting and immediately said, “Don’t worry, Mom will teach her a lesson.” She said while stroking her daughter’s head. Mona did not know that her daughter was smiling slyly in her arms. Little did she know her daughter tricked her.
“Anya is really too much, Ma. What’s our fault, Mom?” She said, sobbing.
“In the past, Anya had hurt Mom. Now, she snatched Nat’s fiancé. In fact, Nat never did anything to her.” She added.
“Indeed, for a long time ago, this girl is nothing but a bad luck. She should have been left stranded on the streets. What is the use of us providing assistance and shelter to this girl? In the end, we are the ones who suffer. This time, Mom will step in and beat her up!”
Natali’s ploy was extraordinary. The news about Aiden and Anya’s affair had ignited Mona’s anger. Natali deliberately brought up the past to make her mother even angrier.
No one would be suspicious of her. She had erased all available evidence. She had also closed the mouths of everyone involved. Everyone would blame Anya and defend her.
Anya didn’t know what was going on. Currently, she was on his way to Natali’s house, wanting to ask for an explanation of all that had happened. She didn’t even have time to check her cellphone, let alone read the news.
Her feelings were so mixed.
She felt confused and angry at what Natali had done to her. She also felt hurt and disappointed over Natali’s betrayal. Why did Natali do this to her? What exactly was Natali’s goal?
Besides that, her thoughts sometimes also went to the man she was with last night. Who exactly was that man? Why did that man know her name? Did that man know her? But why didn’t she remember him at all?
These thoughts made her head feel dizzy. In the meantime, she would demand an explanation from Natali first.
Her feet kept on walking fast and Natali’s house comes into view. The house still looked luxurious as before. The house that had once been her shelter, but that place no longer belonged to him.
In the past, the house was her palace, where she was her father’s daughter and her mother was his queen. Until one day, the divorce of her mother and father made them leave that place.
The fence was black, wrapped in gold carvings that add to its luxury. Behind the fence, there were luxury cars lined up and also a beautiful park.
Now, this house was occupied by her father and also her new family. Meanwhile, she and her mother have to live in a small and shabby house, racking their brains and looking for ways to provide for their daily needs. Plus, now her mother was in the hospital …
