Aiden's eyes were hidden behind his sunglasses. He studied Maria's expression before saying softly, "Anya, this is my sister-in-law, Maria."
"Sis Maria." Anya said, "This is a gift I have prepared for you. I hope you like it."
"No need to be overly polite. We are all family. Is all this for me?" Apart from the bouquet and perfume brought by Anya, Maria saw Abdi also carrying some charcoal.
"Anya makes perfume for you and she picks these roses in her own flower garden." Aiden said.
"Thank you for the gift. Come in. Father has been waiting for you." Maria immediately welcomed them.
"Anya, I'll help Nico in the park. Come in quickly." Tara gave Anya an encouraging gesture and nodded her head back.
Aiden gripped her hand gently and led her into the living room as if nothing had happened.
From inside, a voice was heard, "Who is waiting for them? I'm not waiting for them." Bima said coldly.
