Chapter 53 - Rumors
Anya left the Rose Scent without looking back again, leaving Raka standing still in his place. She left in a hurry while trying to cover the tears that were starting to stream down her face. She didn't want anyone to see her current condition. It was better for her to leave this place immediately.
Meanwhile, Raka was still standing in his place, staring at Anya's figure leaving him. From the shop window, he could see Anya's back slowly getting away. His eyes never left that figure.
After seeing Anya leave, Raisa immediately went to her brother, "Brother, are you still missing Anya seriously? Didn't you know that that woman had snatched Natali's fiancé? Now she has a very rich lover." Raisa said while shaking her brother's hand, as if trying to revive her brother. In fact, she was actually pouring oil into the fire, trying to make the atmosphere even hotter.
"Natali's fiancé? Do you mean Aiden Atmajaya?" Raka asked, turning his head to look at his younger sister's face. His sister's words caught his attention, distracting his gaze which was fixed on Anya's back. His face looked a little surprised at the information he had just received.
"Yes. How come you haven't heard the news? About two weeks ago, Anya and Aiden were caught having an affair. Their photo out of the hotel together was spread on the internet. The day after that, Aiden immediately canceled his engagement to Natali." Raisa said while watching her brother's face closely, wanting to see how he reacted after hearing the news. She deliberately left out some important parts and told only what she wanted.
Raka frowned when he heard that, "Anya is not a woman like that. There must be a misunderstanding!" The gaze showed that he didn't believe the news at all.
Raisa could only snort when she heard her brother's answer. No matter what she said, her brother didn't believe it at all.
Raisa's eyes swept across the aromatherapy products that lined the shop window, but she was not at all interested in any of the items in the shop. She didn't come to buy her brother aromatherapy. It was just an excuse she made because she deliberately wanted to come to Anya.
Actually, Raisa did come to this mall because she was in the middle of shopping. While she was taking a walk, she heard the news that Anya was also in the same mall as her. That was why she decided to see her. She wanted to make a fuss with Anya.
"Brother, I suggest you don't have anything to do with that woman anymore. Aren't you giving up on what happened earlier?" Raisa said. She looked like a little sister who loved her big brother, and didn't want him to fall into the same hole.
Hearing his younger sister's words, Raka's face immediately looked unsightly, "Raisa, don't listen to rumors too much. You know for yourself that everyone likes to add spice to the stories they heard. I know Anya very well and I trust her." He replied coldly, "Are you done? Come on, let's get out of here." Anya was no longer there so he didn't want to stay in this place anymore.
Raisa rushed over to Ben and pointed to the products she wanted to buy, "I want this, this and this. Wrap everything up. Remember, no Mugwort!"
"Yes, miss. Please wait a moment." Ben immediately told one of the employees to wrap up all the products Raisa wanted.
While waiting for the items she bought, Raisa saw empty bottles with various beautiful shapes in one of the windows, along with several bottles containing various kinds of spices. She studied the bottles with curiosity, "Manager, are these bottles for perfume?"
"Yes, miss. Do you want to order a special perfume?" Ben replied with a smile. He really was like a very good salesperson, trying to get the attention of his customers, "Our shop also provides special perfume orders!" He added.
"Hmm ... Maybe next time I'll come here again to order it!" Raisa said, "Manager, the woman named Anya, what job did she apply for?"
Ben felt a little uncomfortable with the question because it was actually too personal. But he couldn't do anything because customers should be treated as king, "Perfumer assistant, miss."
Raisa's hand touched the lined glass bottles gently and said casually, "That woman named Anya is a complete disaster. Luck was never on her side. Aren't you worried about hiring someone like that in your shop?" Raisa said while glancing at Ben, "Aren't you worried that one day Aiden Atmajaya will get angry and come to destroy your shop?"
"I don't have the authority, miss. Mrs. Esther, the owner of this shop, personally interviewed and accepted Anya because she met the requirements of our shop. Since it's Mrs. Esther herself, it means that Anya's skill must be extraordinary. Besides, Anya's personal affairs have nothing to do with us. However, I am very grateful for your concern, miss." Ben answered her with the right choice of words, not trying to be humble and not looking arrogant either.
Raka frowned when he heard his younger sister's words. He was annoyed that Raisa kept on rambling on in public, especially since this place was Anya's workplace. Raka immediately rebuked her, "Raisa, shut up!"
Raisa looked sullen when her brother scolded her, "I'm not talking carelessly, Bro! Not a single person knows what actually happened. Anya has snatched Natali's fiancé and humiliated her in front of everyone. When Natali invited Anya to meet to solve this problem properly, Anya instead asked Aiden to come and pour hot coffee on Natali's face. Behind her innocent face, Anya has various cunning ways to get what she wants." Raisa said with disgust.
"RAISA!" Raka snapped at his younger sister. He couldn't stop himself when he heard Raisa's unreasonable talk. However, even after Raka snapped Raisa didn't stop talking.
"Brother! If you don't believe me, you can see the evidence everywhere. Many people witnessed it firsthand. I feel very sorry for Natali. Aiden did not only break their engagement but also doused her with hot water! All of that is just because of his affair." Raisa said while shaking her head, "You don't know how sad Natali's condition was when I went to visit her in the hospital!"
The atmosphere was getting more and more unpleasant, so the shop employees rushed to wrap Raisa's order quickly. They wanted their customer to leave their shop immediately. If these siblings didn't leave this place right away, maybe there wouldn't be customers who would enter their shop.
"Miss, these are the items you ordered. Please pay here." Said the shop clerk quickly as she approached Raisa with a grocery bag.
Raka couldn't believe what Raisa was saying. He knew that many people like to spread false information. The internet was not something that could be taken for granted. The only one he believed in was Anya. He wanted to hear all these stories from Anya's mouth directly, not someone else's mouth.
Raka walked to the cashier, about to pay for Raisa's groceries. When he stood in front of the counter, he quietly whispered in a low voice to the shop clerk, "What time tomorrow will Anya come to work?"
"8 o'clock in the morning, sir." The cashier replied, still showing his professional smile.
Raka left the shop with Raisa after that. He tried to remind himself that tomorrow Anya would be back in this place.
At 8 am...
