“Have your eyes recovered?” Nico sat in front of Aiden, staring closely at his uncle’s face, especially his eyes. All this time he felt that his uncle could see again, but somehow, he still pretended to be blind. He wanted to know how his uncle was actually.
“I still can’t see you very well.” Aiden did not deny Nico’s guess.
Aiden’s answer brightened Nico’s face. Just as he thought, his uncle was starting to recover!
“Uncle, is it fun playing blind and tricking everyone?” Nico teased. Aiden immediately kicked his leg hard under the table, but Nico quickly dodged it with a grin, “Are you teasing aunt?”
“I’m not teasing her!” Replied Aiden. Even though his face remained cold and expressionless as usual, Nico could see Aiden’s ears were turning slightly red.
This made Nico stare at once, “Uncle! You’re in love!” This was nothing new for Nico. He never saw his uncle crazy about a woman like this, “Uncle, actually getting a woman to fall in love is very easy, but you are too fierce!”
“I? Fierce?” Aiden glared at Nico, giving him a look as if to say ‘Are you tired of living?’
“Uncle! I am your nephew, not your rival. Don’t look at me like that. You are so creepy. How can women not be afraid to fall in love with you!” Nico pushed his chair back, away from Aiden.
Aiden’s eyes had recovered and he could vaguely see what Nico was doing. Nico felt that it was better for him to step back and keep his distance so that he was not attacked by this one tiger. Because what he would say next might upset his uncle even more. If he kept his distance from his uncle, maybe he could run away immediately in case something happened.
“Uncle, do you want me to teach you how to conquer women?” Nico asked, grinning. “Even though I’m not as good as you in work, when it comes to conquering women, I’m better than Uncle. I’ve been looking for girls since I was in kindergarten. I already have a lot of experience, so I’m sure I can teach Uncle a little!” Nico said proudly as he patted his chest.
“Anya is different from all women you know.” When Aiden said that, his lips lifted slightly upward and his expression turned soft. Without realizing it, he recalled Anya’s beautiful face in his mind.
Nico’s mouth fell open at his uncle at this time, “Uncle, you are totally in love. You’re like a fool who… ” Nico said, shaking his head.
PLAQUE!
Before Nico had time to finish making fun of Aiden, Aiden had already lifted a folder on the table and slammed it on Nico’s head. Nico immediately hugged his head and said pitifully, “Uncle, can we talk without violence?”
Aiden just glared at his naughty nephew. ‘This one kid…’
“Uncle, I’m sorry!” Nico said, stroking his head. It was better if he didn’t get involved in his uncle’s love affairs. His uncle was so fierce when he discussed anything related to aunts. It looked like his uncle was really interested in his aunt.
Aiden immediately changed the subject. He looked at Nico seriously and said, “Soon, your grandfather’s birthday celebration will be held. Ivan will return to Indonesia. A tough battle awaits us.”
Hearing Aiden’s serious tone, Nico sat up straight and wore the same expression. However, his opinion was not the same as Aiden’s, “Uncle, I don’t think Uncle Ivan intends to compete with us.”
“Is that what you think?” Said Aiden with a snort, “Nico, since when did you start doing things according to your feelings?”
“Uncle, we don’t need to fight with Uncle Ivan. The person who really wants to take everything from us is Imel, not Uncle Ivan. Isn’t Uncle Ivan willing to give this company to you because he doesn’t want division in the family?” Nico said, trying to defend Ivan.
Aiden used his finger to tap the table, looked at Nico coldly and asked, “How do you know Ivan doesn’t want to compete with us?”
“If Uncle Ivan wants to compete, he will definitely take over the company before Uncle returns to Indonesia at that time. Why did he have to wait for Uncle to come home first?” Nico replied.
Aiden smiled sarcastically at him, “Nico, Nico … Looks like there are only women in your mind!”
Nico immediately protested irritably, “Uncle, don’t underestimate me!”
“Nico! Listen to me carefully. Otherwise, I don’t know what will happen to you later.” Aiden looked at Nico seriously, “At that time, Ivan was also not willing to hand over the company to me, but he didn’t have the ability to take over the entire Atmajaya Group.”
“What do you mean Uncle?” Nico asked in surprise.
Aiden suddenly lowered his gaze, staring at Nico’s feet, “Have you lost something?”
“Huh?” Nico followed Aiden’s line of sight and looked down at his feet, but there was nothing there.
“Brain is a good thing. Don’t lose it!” Aiden quipped, rolling his eyes. Nico was completely clueless.
Nico just realized what his uncle meant. Aiden reprimanded him because he couldn’t think clearly.
“Uncle, I just thought that if we could get along well with Uncle Ivan and not fight with him, maybe our family could live in peace!” Nico said, smiling innocently.
Aiden leaned back in his chair, “Who exactly is your family?”
Nico immediately sat up straight, didn’t make a sound. He realized that what he said at this point was not true in his uncle’s eyes!
“Your father tried desperately to keep your grandfather from marrying Imel. Doesn’t that make Imel hate your father so much?” Aiden raised his eyebrows and his eyes looked cold as he remembered his brother.
Nico’s face looked very surprised. He couldn’t answer Aiden’s question.
“In this family, only I can protect you. I was able to take over Atmajaya Group because your father and I had planned all these situations. If I died in an accident one year ago. Do you think you can still occupy your current position? Do you think you won’t be kicked out of the company?” Aiden asked.
Suddenly, Nico remembered something that was said by Raka, “Uncle, I remembered something. Raka said that he, aunt and uncle Ivan knew each other. They all grew up together.”
Aiden’s eyes turned fierce as he stared at Nico, “Why are you telling such important things just now?”
“I didn’t know that it was such an important thing.” Nico’s voice grew lower and lower.
Anya and Raka had loved each other since childhood. However, now Anya was his uncle’s wife. How could Nico tell this so easily?
“I think your best friend will find trouble with me.” Said Aiden. Then, his eyes fixed on Nico, who sat opposite him, the only family he trusted, “If Raka and Ivan work together to get rid of me, who will you help?”
“Of course, I will help you, Uncle. I can still think clearly!” Nico felt like a child being admonished by his parents. Of course he would defend Aiden. How could he defend others?
Aiden’s lips curved into a smile. Apart from Anya, Nico was the only family he currently had. Aiden knew how innocent Nico was so he had to wake him up so he didn’t fall into the wrong path.
“You said, you want to teach me how to conquer women?” Said Aiden changing the subject.
