"A-t the wiretapper?!"
“A-Aiden.. You said, eavesdropping tool?” repeat Zura when Aiden doesn't answer his question.
Aiden grunting.
“Yes. It's a wiretap. And the person who is most likely to put it there is only Ken.” Aiden's murmur.
Zura looked back at Ken. The girl's face was full of questions.
“A-what's true, Ken?” ask Zura.
Ken was silent, his head lowered.
“You heard it? Our conversation? Everything?!” asked Zura again, his voice sounding soft and raucous.
Ken's head went deeper. Even now Heris and Helios also looked down. It shows that they feel guilty.
Instantly Zura felt a headache.
Aiden again snorted, although this time it was not as loud as before. Aiden's hand began to rub Zura's back slowly.
“It's okay. Ken can be trusted.” Said Aiden, trying to calm down.
“Ta- but.” Zura's face still looked pale, he still could not accept it.
“Ken did it because it cares about me. Forgive her. It's my fault too. I must have put a huge load on Ken.”'s shoulders
Instantly Ken lifted his face, looking at Aiden with moved eyes. Even Heris looked teary. Aiden just whimpered. If it wasn't for Zura looking so panicked, Aiden wouldn't have defended Ken.
Come on, he just made peace with Zura! If they come back into conflict, how good Aiden will be!
Zura finally looked at Aiden at a glance with a calmer face. He breathed so long. All right, it doesn't matter if Ken knows. Zura only felt a little objection because Ken knew how to install a wiretap. But now that he thought about it, Zura thought he didn't mind anymore. Seeing that, Aiden looked back at Ken sharply.
“Close to here!” tell Aiden.
Ken, Heris, and Helios approached.
“Forcuse us, miss.” Helios said, looking at Zura's face calmly, but his eyes showed solemnity.
“Pardon kaamii, noonaaa.” Heris deftly followed her twin sister, what was different was their tone of speech.
“Ma-pardon us, especially me, mistress.” great-granddaughter Ken, come apologize.
Zura was still silent, he seemed to turn his face away, making the three guilty people feel even more guilty.
Aiden looked at Zura for a moment. The girl did look annoyed and scrunched her face. However, his cheeks were slightly blushing. Ah, it turns out that instead of being angry, Zura felt embarrassed because his conversation was heard directly by others. Aiden looked back at the three criminals.
“How far did you guys hear it?” ask Aiden. No one answered.
“So, you heard everything?” ask Aiden again. They still don't answer.
“Aiden..is it real?” ask Ken then, deciding to make a sound. He called Aiden's name instead of his master's.
Aiden then grunted. Ken doesn't know a bit about this. Aiden has never hidden anything before. Aiden glanced at the object still attached to the vase. And he decided to ignore it.
“Yes. That's right.” Aiden replied at last.
Zura was silent. It is better to listen to Aiden's conversation with Heris, Helios, and Ken. After all, they knew Aiden better. And Aiden knows them well. This was also an opportunity for Zura to understand Aiden more deeply.
“What is that? Just because you spent the night? I mean, you seem more burdened.” asked Ken again. Aiden was silent for a moment.
“That woman, the girl who spent the night with me back then.. He said he was still virgin.” Aiden.
Everyone is surprised. But the most surprised was Zura. For a moment, he wondered whether this decision of maintaining marriage was the right thing or not. Should he think again?
Aiden looked at Zura. The woman looked very shocked. Aiden understood why Zura felt that way. He was also in a dilemma.
“Don't think of escaping after you promised to be with me, Zura.” Said Aiden, even half threatening.
At first Aiden thought Zura would divorce him without a second thought. Moreover, this marriage happened because of Aiden's sincerity. After Zura says that she intends to keep their marriage going, Aiden is determined to keep her no matter what. Even if Zura changed his mind, then he would force Zura to change back his mind. Zura appreciates their marriage more than Aiden thought. And after knowing that fact, it would be foolish for Aiden to just let Zura go.
Zura breathed a long breath.
“I didn't know about this before, Aiden.” Zura said. His face now looks dark.
Zura felt very doubtful about his decision. Aiden has taken away the sanctity of a woman.
It is better to admit a mistake at the beginning than to make it runnier in the future. Having this kind of courage is a very, very heavy thing. Sometimes where the body, heart, mind, and soul of a perpetrator who accidentally made a mistake and was haunted by guilt is much more broken than the feelings of the victim. He refuses to eat, refuses to work, refuses to move, refuses to greet the world, and refuses everything.
Aiden didn't want to be cooped up in this feeling deepening. Therefore, he now ventured, looking at Zura fixedly.
“Zura.. please listen to me until the end.” Aiden. Zura took his breath in, and exhaled it long. Prepare your heart to stay calm with what Aiden will say.
“A-
BRAKK!!
Czechkekrek!! Czechkerekk!!
“Heii!! What are you doing!!”
“This is hospital!!”
Instantly the calm atmosphere became very boisterous. Aiden stared intently at the crowd of reporters who were now in a storm, accompanied by the glare of the camera's blitz. Ken, Heris, and Helios who were fixated for a moment instantly panicked. Trying to divert journalists. Trying to get them out. What problems are haunting them?
Zura Pun. He stared at the crowd, which was now very noisy. For some reason, getting the spotlight of the blitz lamp that kept taking pictures of him, Zura felt his legs limp. After disappearing from the entertainment world, his figure actually appeared in Aiden's ward.
What kind of bad feeling is this? Why does it feel so scary?!
...**...
Night approaching.
Aiden's phone is still ringing. Pun Ken's. The two humans were very busy with their cell phones. If they can, they want to turn off the phone. But what power is, all those calls are important calls. Aiden is not just an actor, he is also the son of Astarst Group. His position is now increasingly cornered. Problems that now haunt the company make the workers have to overtime. Company shares also fell dramatically.
It was a nightmare in plain sight.
“Hah?? Block all that.”
"..."
“Wait, what?! Why is that guess coming out?”
"..."
“... Investigate first the root of the problem.”
"..."
“NO! I didn't do it! You crazy??”
Zura breathed out. Feels smothering. Zura's existence in Aiden's ward as the reporters came to make matters even more complicated. And there's nothing he can do. Zura pulled out her phone. It turns off mobile data for all messaging apps. There was nothing he could do, wouldn't it help if he found out the latest gossip and news that was circulating? Zura finally started to sit down and play the phone. Type in various keywords and read the articles that keep popping up.
The King of Actors, Aiden Azam, is suspected in the abuse case.
Where is the loss of 5 trillion dollars?
Alleged corruption and embezzlement of King Actor as well as Antarest heir
‘Sang Queen Scandal’ found with Aiden in ward
Saffir Azura And 4 Men In One Room. What's Going on??
Zura breathed out slowly. Most other news stories talk about her whereabouts in Aiden's room. What's the room?? Are those reporters crazy?? They were clearly in a hospital ward.
Speculations of netizens increasingly aggressively partying in cyberspace. Aiden is a king of actors with millions of fans. But he also had a lot of bad reputation from a long time ago. And that makes the situation hotter now.
“Shiiiittt!!”
Aiden's screams made Ken turn his head. He was busy with a laptop in his hand because he had to review the situation and direct his subordinates to delete all the articles in a short time. Zura also turned his head, looking at Aiden who looked frustrated, shuffling his head. The woman stood up and approached Aiden. His hand rubbed the man's back gently.
“What if we just turn off your phone, Aiden. You need calm. Your condition is not good either.” Persuade Zura.
Aiden looked at the woman, then carried her into the warm embrace of her body.
“I'm sorry.. I'm making trouble again.” Said Aiden.
...**...
...Is anyone waiting??...
