Marrying Mr. Arrogant ย ย ย Chapter 17
SAAFIAโS POV:-Jared was released, he must be there with his wife, having an affectionate time with her and me, where am I? Sitting alone on the bed, hugging my one knee and straightening the other.Staring into nothingness. I didnโt want to accept but Sarah was right. What was the point of a meaningless bond? These were not the thoughts I had for my marriage.What good being with that man will bring me? Was it worth it?โHey. What are you thinking? Are you hungry?โ He called, snapping his fingers to get my attention while not removing his eyes from his laptop.It was night, he was working. In the dark room, the light of the screen made his handsome features shine. Exhaling, my eyes shifted to him.โI am thinking that I have been married for two months now yet it feels like a stranger is here.โ I told him in a low, sorrowful tone. โSometimes a lifetime is not enough to know someone. These are only months. In fact, you can never know what another person thinks.โ He continued, typing

โThat is none of your damn concern.โ My body froze when I sensed his presence behind me. A terrible shiver went down my spine when I sensed his wrath and the glare he sent in my direction.Gulping, I turned and saw him. In his white office shirt, his sleeves rolled roughly and two buttons opened with slightly scattered hairs, indicating he was already stressed.And I enhanced it.โMr. C-Cannedy?โ Calling worriedly, I got up quickly.My heart began to pound. As much of a possessive man he is, I knew he wouldn't take it lightly. Coming closer with an intimidating aura and dangerous eyes, he walked up to us. His hands in his pocket, emitting a dominance I had never seen before.โB-Boss, she called me. I swear, I-I didnโt do anything.โ Jared stammered, rising from his seat, losing his breaths in horror.His fatal eyes traveled to me. My mind stopped functioning, my heart pounded rapidly, brimming tears in my eyes as I moved back.โYou are coming with me.โ He growled in a low, deadly voi

I stood in the room, wondering whether I should go and greet his sister or not. But then again, I had no grudge against her. I was not like him to take someoneโs rage on someone else.Why should I hurt her for her brotherโs actions? Taking a deep breath, I washed my face. My hands were still shaking from the confrontation. He had terrified me today.โCalm down, Saafia.โ Instructing myself, I took a deep breath, regaining my posture, applied a little makeup and walked out. I didnโt want to ruin my first meeting with her. As I walked out, I heard her chirpy tone echoing in the hall.โWhy didnโt you wait for me? Why were you in such a hurry to marry?!โ He was dying to take revenge.A smile came to my lips. I had talked to Jacey on call and she sounded sweet. I hope sheโd be like that in reality too.โAh, but it was so beautiful. Where is she? I want to see her.โ She beamed. I almost chuckled to watch the woman of my age, almost jumping in enthusiasm.She looked like her mother. A grac

DARIELโS POVโNow I think she did the right thing by leaving you!โ Shut up. Shut up.I grit my teeth when her face sobbing, hitting my chest came to mind. My jaw clenched. I was in the hall, my one leg resting over the other, opening another button of my shirt.I was already stressed because of work and my image I ruined by sending my employee Jared to jail and coming here, I ended up frightening her as well.โUhโฆ Sir?โ Sam called, noticing the stern expression on my face.โHmm?โ I hummed, leaning my head back, rubbing my temples.โAre you alright?โ He asked, arching an eyebrow as I only hummed in return.โYou better keep Jacey happy at all costs.โ I warned him, shifting my gaze to him.โYes, Sir.โ He nodded quickly, sitting farther away from me. He was obviously intimidated by my very presence.But, at the moment my only concern was Saafia. The sound of her sobs was echoing in my mind. I frightened her in the lift as well. โI.. will go and see Jacey.โ I couldnโt help it, I had mad

Unwillingly, I got ready on Saturday, wearing my black shirt and black waistcoat, rolling my sleeves to the elbow, watching my wife getting ready.She wore the matching dress, doing her hair as I stared at her, not removing my eyes from her. She was smiling, applying her makeup, looking angelic.โHow could I tell her she looks beautiful? In fact, when did she become this pretty?โ I thought.Watching her intensely, covering my mouth as I opened the first two buttons of my shirt temptingly when she applied her lipstick, not noticing or she probably noticed. Who knows?โArgh. I canโt put this on. Can you help me?โ She called after failing to secure her necklace.Her hands were shaking slightly. Not daring to look into my eyes with a blush.She noticed. She definitely did. In these two months, I had known whenever I stared at her, she got flushed. It was my affect on her.โSure.โ Clearing my throat, I rose from my seat and stood behind her.

SAAFIAโS POV:- I was so done with him. I wonโt forgive him this easily, he couldnโt take me for granted. He couldnโt accuse me, hurt me whenever he wanted. I wonโt let it slide. I decided to act normally with everyone except him. Ignoring him, being harsh with him but being a stone. He was incapable of understanding. I was in the hall alone because Jacey left for dinner with Sam and I had no intention of going to the room for now. โHey.โ He called coming down with a frown lingering on his stoic features. โWhat?โ โDid your desire to paint end in one work? I found another teacher only to know you are no longer interested. Do you want to do anything else?โ He questioned, standing before me. I couldnโt get him. One moment all nonchalant and chill and in the other, rude, horrible and arrogant. I couldnโt tell when he was sincere, when he meant his words. โI donโt want to do anything.โ I replied coldly, taking a seat, not bothering to look at him, deepening his frown. โWhat happ

Later, only a week was left for Jaceyโs engagement, everyone was madly working, decorating the mansion as it was going to happen here. It was Sunday and I had so much fun with Jacey. I had a lovely and delightful time. I was excited to wear that pink dress Jacey gave me. โSaafia! Do you have a list of things for decoration?โ Jacey called me from downstairs. Grinning, I happily ran down the stairs. He was standing in the landing area. Looking eye-catching as always in his black shirt. Three buttons opened, revealing his toned chest. Sleeves rolled perfectly to the elbow, always looking immaculate. He was on his phone with one hand in his pocket. โYeah! I do. I have it- Ah!โ I was so excited and twisted my ankle, slipping and falling in his chest. Stopping, he quickly grabbed my waist to refrain me from falling but I hurt my ankle badly. โCanโt you watch where you are going, woman? Are you hurt?โ He whispered worriedly, cutting the call and putting the phone back to help me

DARIELโS POV:-I was getting ready for work in the morning. Holding my hand out of Saafia who moved behind and helped me wear my waistcoat. I couldnโt help but to scrutinize her form, small compared to mine.Popping to the front, she was closing the buttons as I was staring at her as usual, wanting to rake my fingers in her hair. How would it feel? โMister Cannedy.โ She called after buttoning my waistcoat.โYes, Missus Cannedy?โSmirking, I slid my finger under her chin and lifted it so she could see the way I was looking directly into her soul.She tilted her head in confusion to which I shrugged my shoulders monotonously.โWhen you are not calling my name then why would I?โShe smiled faintly, shaking her head and went to take my coat, helping me wearing it and not understanding what was happening to me, I was forced to link my gaze with her innocent ones. Why do my gazes always stop at you?โAnyways, listen,โ She called, leaving me and leaning against the wall while watching me

3.5 Years Later. SAAFIAโS POV:-Today was Jaceyโs engagement with Jared. Both of them got an instant connection already but they were so scared of commitments that it took them three years to decide to be together.And on that day, I was running after my three-year-old daughter who was running and I was worried if she wouldn't fall.โLillia, come here, stop running!โNot caring, she ran and jumped into her fatherโs arms, โPapa!โโBe careful, princess, you will fall,โ Dariel laughed a little, picking Lillia who was hugging him with a wide grin.An important work came so he had to leave for a few hours but in that time we all fell asleep.Because my sweet Lilliaโs six months old younger brother had sworn to not let his mother rest.โWelcome home,โ I sighed, shaking my head as I gave Dariel a side hug.โThank you,โ He smiled, kissing the top of my head while putting down Lillia, giving her his office bag so she could take it to our room.โOh thank God, you are here, Dariel,โ I sighed wh

DARIELโS POV:-Helder surrendered himself without resistingโฆ It was expected, he was at a losing point of his life, he was utterly defeated and lost and gave up without trying. He knew he did wrong by flowing in the emotions.โYou are under arrest for kidnapping Jacey Cannedy and Jared Raz in the middle of the day,โ His head was hanging low, emitting deep dejection that made us all silent. We stood together while he was all alone.โI knowโฆโ Tears glistened in the corner of his eyes, curling his hand in a fist due to powerlessness. He lost all his purpose in a moment, one letter all it took to shatter him. They were about to take him away but he stopped before me. I felt an unknown sting in my chest, narrowing my eyes as he held a woeful expression.โDariel, I wanted to confess something,โโWhat?โHe looked down in shame, โThe child that Veronica abortedโฆ it was mine.

SAAFIAโS POV:-My heartbeats were dropping by each passing second to think what Helder would do to Jacey. Harry had etched too much hatred in his heart.I was afraid he might not end up creating an irredeemable mistake. He was made this way, he had a path to return, to find acceptance. He would definitely regret losing that.โFuck! I canโt believe he is taking out my wrath on Jacey!โ Dariel growled as technically it was his fault.โWhy didnโt you tell me you battered him in your new construction site!?โ I hissed at him, not believing that he increased his fury by keeping him chained. โI was furious. He ruined your innocence, that Sam hurt my sister. For a second, I saw my life falling apart and I took that wrath on him,โ He sighed in distress, driving hastily to go where Helder called us.He wanted us to meet where he got hit, at the same construction site as I was glaring at Dariel, now understand why he sent me away.He didnโt want me to witness how ruthless he could become.โOh

He offered me a place near his office as we both shared a pleasant time.โDid Dariel ask you to keep an eye on me so I wonโt do something to myself in regret and sadness?โ I asked in a playful tone because I saw no reasons for him to be this kind to me.In fact, after Dariel, he was the second man to care this much for me. Sam never did this- Nevermind.โWhat? No. Though I feel the same and that is why I come to you.โ He chuckled sweetly.โHow unfortunate Sam would be for neglecting you. He had someone who could adore him the most yet he chose to give her pain,โ He spoke, evoking strange feelings in my chest at his heartfelt comment.โI could sa
