Saving Grace 62. Karma
Veer’s pov Communication with Anu was always a different kind of thrill, because her reactions are always unexpected to me in most of the circumstances. I thought she would cry listening to my sob story and might even pity my childhood, but instead I got the title of phoenix. The amount of trust, love and care she has for me always scared me. The more her expectations and belief in me increased, the more my pride grew but at the same the fear of disappointing her as well. It like a vertical lines of a railway track, they go side my side but never meet each other. “Come on, let’s have dinner.” I said moving away from Anu kissing her cheek softly. We sat at the dining table having dinner our conversation moving around our days, and some funny stories of my dear wife playing pranks on her friends or brothers that had us laughing out loud. We sat at the balcony of our room looking at the city lights of the busy city when Anu questioned me out of the blue that threw me off. “Do you
Saving Grace 63. Something new
Ananya's pov Aryan, Veer and I were again in Veer's office where I was patiently listening to those two cunning men as they told me their ploting against that man, and to be very honest I was surprised as to how their mind worked. Somewhere for the first time in my life I was scared of Veer, because this was not a cunning or a manipulative business man, the one sitting in front of me was a man with a Vendetta, he was scary. "So you mean to say that you were planning for it for years?" I exclaimed not believing my ears. "I was Tanya's date for one of the business parties where I learnt that she was Arvind's daughter. From that day onwards I knew that I was going to destroy him because he destroyed my family. It was a well known fact that I was going to be the CEO of the oberoi Empire, and so I started playing my game the very same day." Aryan Khanna was Veer’s closest friend apart from Rudy. I had known about it even before we got married. But what surprised me was his childish na

Saving Grace 2. Rudra
Ananya's pov I groan softly into my bed trying to control my emotions, like I do every time when the topic of marriage comes. I know that I have to get married someday to a man, but I don't want to end up like my mom. I hate commitment. All of my past relationship didn't stay for long, because eventually the guys get tired of my commit-o-phobia and end the relationship. But even before I enter into the relationship, I already tell them that I don't commit. In the start they all agree believing that they can change my mind, but end up changing their own. I don't know but whenever I enter into a relationship, I can't bring myself to love that person. I do like the guy and all, I do feel attracted towards him, but I can't get that emotional connect with him. I simply freshen up and then rush out of the house, so that no one would notice that I am going out. I make my way to my love, my bike hop on it and ride myself to the office of my best fri
Saving Grace 3. Meeting Ana
Veer's pov "I have found a girl for you and I believe that she is perfect." Nani told me and I controlled the urge to grunt. Since she has figured out that there is no way in hell I am getting married on my own and get settled she has made it her life mission to see me settled and have her great grandchildren. Like if she just wants great grandchildren I don't have to marry right? But when I suggested her the same thing even though I was joking she took it seriously and now wants to me to get hitched. Since past 6 months she has gone through so many girls and their families but hadn't found the girl that compliments me yet. "Nani, I don't want to marry." I say but her one glare was enough to shut me up. "Veer, just because your parents didn't had a happy marriage doesn't mean you won't be as well. I want you to be happy with your wife and children before I die." Yeah right. She played her death card now, knowing f
Saving Grace 4. Pissed.
Ana's pov To say I was pissed would be an understatement. Mrs. Oberoi sadly watched her grandson stomping out of the house, if it wasn't for Rudy holding me than I would have lashed out at him more. No one spoke, no one dared to, because they could tell from the tension hanging in there that I was pissed. I took deep breathes and then looked at Pa, his eyes told me that he too didn't want this. Why can't Ma understand that I don't want to get married ?. Ma looked guilty and when she noticed that out of all people my brown orbs were fixed at her she opened her mouth to speak. But before she could utter another word, " I know you want the best for me, but this was a low blow Ma." I stated my tone polite but message clear. I left the dining room and went to my room to shower and then sleep. I had had enough of bull shit and I simply wanted to sleep. I changed into my pjs when I heard a knock on my door. Rudy entered in, knowing full well that I

Even Rudra said that his ship was sailing, he was so excited and he could already see his both best friends in the wedding hall, sharing the sacremental vows. We arrived at the mansion and I was greeted with Mr' Bajaj and his eldest son Shorya Bajaj.

He had taken over his father a few years back and had expanded the empire in almost the entire Asia. We entered the house and unknowingly my eyes wandered over the hall to and then my
Saving Grace 6. I am broken.
Ananya's povI closed the door behind me with a soft bang, and was about to dwell myself in the agony when someone knocked. I knew it who it was, at least that's what I thought but to my utter surprise there stood the person I was least expecting to come to me."Mrs. Oberoi." I acknowledged my tone curt yet polite, seriously I was in no mood for any of this marriage shit and the last thing I wanted to do was to snap at the old woman."How are you dear?" Her voice held one thing that I hated.Pity, sympathy."I am fine. Just need some rest." My tone was firm, a clear disguised statement telling her to back off so that I could spend some time alone, but fate had other plans."I heard what your grandmother said." Tone laced with pity and I controlled the urge to snap."Mrs. Oberoi, I appreciate your concern but the last thing I want is pity from you or anyone for that matter. So I suggest you giv
