Chapter 33: The Great Nephew
Anya has been resting at home for the past three days, and her condition has improved, but she has followed Dr. Tara's advice not to overexert herself until she has fully recovered.
During these three days, Aiden brought all his work home to be done.
Of course, he did not tell Anya that he was working from home because Anya had not fully recovered from her condition.
He just said that the company was not so busy and that he didn't have to go to the office in person.
This afternoon, Anya felt that her body had recovered well, and she was bored to rest in her room all day.
Eventually, she decided to go downstairs to the kitchen to help Hana.
Today, she passed the time chatting with Hana in the kitchen while baking cookies.
"Anya, would you like to send some cookies to Mr. Aiden?" Hana asked.
It seems like a good idea.
Aiden is currently working with Leith in the office, working too long is sure to make them hungry, and these cookies are the best snack for them.
"Okay, I'll make Aiden a cup of tea too." She said.
They immediately put some pastries on the plate, and Anya brought the plate and two cups of hot tea to Aiden's study on a tray.
Before she could knock on Aiden's door, Anya heard a voice from inside: "Uncle, come to the office!" Without you, I feel like I'm going to die. Someone in Aiden's study said so.
It looks like Aiden is receiving guests.
Anya canceled her intention to knock on Aiden's office door and decided to wait for Aiden to finish the matter first.
She could bring these cookies and tea later.
However, before she could turn to leave, Leith suddenly walked out of the room.
"Madame! Are you looking for a gentleman?" Leith asked when he saw Anya standing in the doorway.
"I just wanted to bring some cookies and tea, but Aiden seems to be busy, I can come back later." Anya replied.
In the room, Aiden could hear Anya's voice saying, "Come in, I'm not busy." ”。
Leith opened the door wider, making it easier for Anya, who was carrying a plate of snacks and a cup of tea, to get in.
Then, he left the room and asked his boss to chat with Anya privately.
As soon as she entered the room, Anya saw a handsome young man with a figure and face similar to Aiden's. Just by looking at it, everyone can see that the two of them are related by blood.
However, compared to the cold and serious Aiden, this young man spoke cheerfully and with a rich expression.
He wears civilian clothes, a torn shirt and jeans to make him look younger.
His image is in stark contrast to Aiden, who always wears formal attire wherever he goes.
If Aiden is the lonely moon at night, then this young man is the warm sun during the day.
Seeing Anya enter the room, the young man immediately approached Aiden, shook Aiden's arm, and shouted without hesitation, "Ah! I just remembered that my uncle already has a lover! No wonder my uncle didn't want to go to the company office and kept locking himself in his house!" His gaze went back and forth at Aiden and Anya with a playful look.
The young man had apparently heard the latest news about Anya and Aiden from rumors, so even when they met for the first time, he immediately recognized Anya and seemed to have seen her face from the footage circulating on the Internet.
Hearing the young man's words, Aiden tapped the young man's forehead hard, and the man immediately rubbed his reddish forehead, "You are so rude, say hello to your aunt!" Aiden said.
"Auntie...... Aunt? ”
Anya looked at the scene in front of her and seemed to be a little unable to react.
She looked at the young man, and her brain began to think, digesting Aiden's words.
The young man finally understood Aiden's words, his eyes widened, and he immediately turned his head to look at his uncle: "Uncle! When are you going to get married? Why don't you invite me? Don't you love me?" The young man was shaking Aiden's arm again.
However, in the face of the young man's behavior, Aiden still appeared to be patient.
Without waiting for Aiden to answer, the young man stopped shaking his body and reached out to cover his mouth, "Did you elope because you didn't get a blessing?"
Aiden slapped the young man in the head in response to his ridiculous question.
Then he ignored the young man, looked at Anya, and whispered, "Come here." ”
Anya immediately walked to Aiden's desk and put the tray on the table: "I brought you snacks and tea. ”
“....”
Aiden nodded when he saw Anya put the tray in front of him. His emotions seemed to be calm, but there was a joy in his eyes that anyone could see.
"This is Ani, my eldest brother's son." In the end, Aiden introduced the two of them to each other.
Aini's mouth opened wide in shock when she heard Aiden and Anya's gentle tone as they spoke.
He had never heard his uncle speak in such a tone, which surprised and amused him at the same time, and all the hairs on his hands stood on end.
After speaking, he immediately approached Anya and shook her hand, "Hello, Auntie, my name is Ani." ”
Anya held out her hand in embarrassment.
Anya didn't expect that she would have such a big nephew! Moreover, there doesn't seem to be much difference in age between her and this nephew, and it feels strange to hear people her age call her aunt.
"Don't call me Auntie, just call me Anya." She replied awkwardly.
However, after Ani shook Anya's hand, she didn't let go of her hand. Instead, he put Anya's small hand to his lips and kissed the smooth hand.
First of all, Anya was surprised to see Aini's attitude.
But judging from the young man's demeanor, Anya could tell that Aini seemed to be used to doing this kind of thing to women.
He's used to flirting with women, all women to be exact!
Aiden immediately threw it in his hand and smashed it directly on Ani's body, causing him to groan.
"Uncle! What are you doing?" As far as he knew, the uncle should not be able to see what he was doing.
Why do you suddenly throw books at him?
"I feel like you're doing something wrong." Aiden replied indifferently.
When Aini heard her uncle's words, she just smiled slightly.
The uncle knew him very well and understood that he was used to flirting with women, regardless of age.
He's a playboy at heart!
Anya chuckled out loud when she saw the actions of the two men.
It was the first time she had seen a different side of Aiden.
Aiden and Aini have a good relationship, which makes them look like brothers.
The smell of freshly baked cookies wafted from Aiden's table, sending a hunger churn in Aini's stomach.
He immediately picked up the biscuit on the table and was about to stuff it into his mouth.
However, before he could raise his hand, Aiden bumped into his hand and the biscuit fell onto the plate again.
"Ouch, uncle! I'm hungry and I want to eat that cookie! You don't like sweets, it's better for me to eat than to waste. Aini stroked her hand and said pretending to be aggrieved.
"I'm going to have a sweet tooth from now on..."Aiden's answer shocked Ani on the spot.
His uncle is completely in love!
Anya saw the small quarrel between the two, and just smiled: "There are still a lot of cakes below, I'll go to the kitchen and get it again...."
"No, he's going back soon." Aiden interrupted her.
Aini immediately turned to look at his uncle.
When did he say he was going home? He didn't want to go home yet, but he was kicked out by his uncle.
"Huh? Don't you want to eat with us?" Anya invited him.
Aiden glared at Aini and told him to get out of here.
But Aini ignored his uncle's gaze and stuck out his tongue at Aiden, "I want to stay and eat!"
"This kid!" Aiden muttered inwardly and rolled his eyes at his nephew's actions.
