Hidden Marriage With My Imperfect CEO

Chapter 424 - Very Precious Opportunity

"Who?" Anya asked.

"Did you see the man in the gray coat? He is my senior and also a doctor. Just now, he was hospitalized because he was beaten by people from Lisa's family. He knew that Lisa would be engaged today so he escaped from the hospital," Tara said. 

​​

"That man knows that I know Nico. He called me to ask about Nico's traits, after which I thought he had given up on Lisa. I didn't tell him that Lisa was pregnant. Who would've known that he would appear in this place?" She continued.

"I told him that Lisa was pregnant with his child. If he really loved Lisa, he wouldn't just stand by and ignore this engagement," Aiden suddenly said.

"Aiden, you... You're great," Anya was so shocked that she didn't know what to say. She could only raise her thumbs at Aiden.

Lisa's eyes looked wet when she looked at the man she loved. Her shoulders were trembling a little.

"Nico, I'm sorry. I can't be engaged to you," Lisa said, shedding tears.

Nico stepped forward and hugged Lisa gently. Then, he patted Lisa's shoulder, "Go. I hope you will be happy,"

"Thank you," Lisa immediately lifted the bottom of her dress so she could run.

The man in the gray suit below the stage could only stare stupidly at Lisa until she ran over to him and threw herself in the man's arms. He could only hug his lover's body tightly while crying together.

Why did it have to be this bitter?

"What are you doing? Get the man out of this place!" Lisa's father roared angrily.

"Father, I beg you. We love each other and I'm already pregnant with his child," Lisa kept trying to protect her lover.

"Lisa, step aside!" Her father scolded.

"Don't touch him. He's still hurt. Go! Don't come close!" Lisa screamed hysterically at the people who approached her. She used her hands to beat and scratch anyone who approached them.

"Lisa, how can I become a man worthy of you," the man tried to protect Lisa in his arms, afraid that the people around them would harm the baby in Lisa's womb.

The men working for Lisa's father immediately took her away, even though she tried hard to struggle. Her white dress started to be covered with red blood…

"Aiden…" Anya felt anxious and immediately took her husband's hand.

"That is a matter for the Srijaya Family. We can't interfere," said Aiden.

"Enough! Stop it. Are you not ashamed?" Indah stepped forward and stopped the commotion.

"Auntie, please help us. Help us…" Lisa cried and knelt in front of Indah.

Indah ignored her niece. Her gaze was fixed on the man who was trying to protect Lisa. "I don't care who you are. I just want to say that after Lisa breaks today's engagement, she will be kicked out of the Srijaya Family and have nothing. Are you still willing to marry her and protect her and the baby in her womb, with all your life?"

"I do. I love Lisa, not because of her family. I didn't even know that she was from the Srijaya Family," the man said honestly.

"He's right, Auntie. He doesn't know who I really am. We really love each other. Even though I had to be kicked out of the house without a penny, I still wanted to be with him," Lisa said, crying.

Indah's gaze was fixed on their hands which were closely intertwined with each other. Her heart felt sad at their suffering to find happiness. "Go,"

"Indah! You can't let them go!" Lisa's father said.

"Brother, if you don't let them go, will you tie Lisa down and force her to finish this engagement?" Indah asked.

"If Lisa leaves now, how can I explain everything to the Atmajaya Family?"

"I will accompany you to apologize to the Atmajaya Family. I told you not to force your daughter to marry someone she doesn't love. Let them choose for themselves, with whom they want to live forever…" said Indah.

"Lisa, I'm really embarrassed because of you. Go and don't come back," Lisa's mother said at last.

"Father, mother, I'm sorry. And thank you, auntie," Lisa left the place after saying goodbye to her family.

Nico was standing on the stage alone when he watched Lisa leave. He took back the microphone he had put down and said aloud, "Lisa, you must be happy!"

Lisa looked back with a big smile. She waved her hand before disappearing from the place.

Although there was no love between them, the two had formed a deep friendship while planning all of this.

"Don't you care if you get rejected?" Bima said irritably.

Nico crouched down in front of his grandfather and said, "Grandpa, how about I find a replacement for Lisa so that our family won't be embarrassed?"

"You are the eldest grandson of the Atmajaya Family. Are you afraid that you won't find a lover? Come down quickly. Don't stand on the stage and make yourself even more embarrassed," Bima said angrily.

"I'd better find a replacement for Lisa. We can't let this party stop halfway. Too bad if we have to waste the space and food that has been provided," Nico stood back up. Before waiting for Bima's answer, he said loudly, "I actually like a woman who studied medics. Is there a doctor here? Who wants to be engaged to me?"

"Nico, I'm a doctor of obstetrics!"

"I'm a pediatrician!

"I'm a urology and andrology specialist!"

"I don't need a doctor in that field. How about a dentist? My teeth are more sensitive. If I don't take good care of my teeth, they are prone to holes. Is there a dentist here?" Nico deliberately said, looking at Tara.

"I'm a dentist and single. Do you mind a man?" A man in the crowd replied excitedly.

"No, no. I don't like men. I prefer women," Nico was very scared and immediately rejected him.

"Nico, are you serious? As long as the candidate is a woman and a dentist, you will definitely be willing? Then I will divorce my husband now, wait for me," a middle-aged woman deliberately teased Nico.

"Auntie, don't tease me," Nico said shyly. "Why are you still not showing up?"

Everyone below the stage immediately looked around in bewilderment when not a single person came onto the stage.

"The woman Nico likes, hurry up on the stage."

"Who does Nico like?"

"There are only a few female dentists who are famous in this city. Isn't it… "

"Tara, don't you dare run away!" Nico's sharp eyes found that Tara was lifting her dress and ran toward the exit of the event hall. She really wanted to run away from this place.

"Lisa doesn't want to be engaged to you. And now Tara is running away too. Are you going to embarrass the Atmajaya Family further?" Bima actually liked Tara, but he felt the woman's family background was not good enough to be matched with his family.

"Nico, don't cause trouble. Hurry and get off the stage," Maria was also worried. She could see Tara was ready to run away. That meant the woman wasn't interested in Nico.

Tirta, who was sitting beside Bima, could only be stunned to see all this.

Did Nico just get rejected twice?

First of all, Lisa ran away from their engagement. And then, when Nico confessed his feelings to Tara, Tara also wanted to run away…

"I'll bring Tara back," Anya rushed after Tara, but Aiden stopped her right away. "Let them solve their own problems,"

"If Tara leaves, what should Nico do? This is a very rare opportunity. If Nico can get engaged to Tara in front of all these guests, father will have to bless their relationship," Anya was afraid Tara would really run away and miss this very precious opportunity.
