"Is there something you need, Raellyn?"he said without looking up.

Her fingers tightened around the small box behind her back. Should she say what he wanted to hear? Or just hand him the gift and get it over with? Still she stood. Silent. Torn. The gift in her hand felt suddenly foolish.

He looked up when she didn’t move or respond.

"Well?" he asked again, more pointedly this time. “Why are you just standing there? If you're not here for anything important, you know where the door is.” His voice was clipped, businesslike. Like she was nothing more than another employee.

"I am here for something," she said, steadier now. "Just give me a moment." She took a shaky breath.

He leaned back slightly in his chair, skeptical. Waiting.

"I saw a watch today," she began, her voice soft, unsure. "While I was shopping."

"You want it? I’ll have someone pick it up for you." Arnav cut in.

“No, that’s not what I mean,” She said, quickly.

He raised an eyebrow, finally glancing at the small box she broug

  • Taming The Charming Director   A Gift For You

    That Night, pride and a quiet, overflowing joy filled Raellyn’s chest as she sat at the grand dining table, her gaze sweeping across the room. Everything was perfect and so achingly, heartwarmingly perfect. This was her other lifelong dream besides the wedding itself: a night where both families would gather under one roof, sharing a meal, laughter, and warmth as if they had always been one.The corridors of Arnav’s home hummed with life. From the living room came a lively chorus of conversation. Her uncle chatting animatedly with Arsene and Sylvia, joined by her father-in-law’s deep, resonant laughter. Nearby, her cousins, Lita and Gilbert, sat close together, and their soft smiles and shy touches hinted at a blossoming closeness that warmed her heart.Across the room, Sharon and Louisa were immersed in their own cheerful chatter, their youthful laughter blending harmoniously with the sound of clinking glasses and soft music. They were the youngest among the family members, and it wa

  • Taming The Charming Director   This New Life

    A year later, the wedding reception was finally held.There hadn’t been much time for preparations, yet everything unfolded flawlessly, as though the event had been meticulously planned. Arnav had handed over every detail to one of the most renowned and professional wedding organizers in the city, and the result was breathtaking. The celebration didn’t feel rushed at all; instead, it carried the elegance of a grand affair. To Raellyn, it almost felt as if she were being married for the very first time.The hall shimmered beneath cascading chandeliers, and the air buzzed with excitement. A handful of journalists had been invited to cover the occasion, and to her astonishment, the event was even broadcast live. It was a reminder of how powerful Arnav’s influence truly was, he could stir the media and the public with a single move.Yet, for Raellyn, this was more than just a reception. It was the embodiment of the wedding she had always dreamed of. The kind she had only ever dared to ima

  • Taming The Charming Director   Leave It In The Past

    Arnav’s eyes closed, the warmth of her arms washing over the coldness he had carried for half a lifetime.“I know you hated me,” Chyntia continued, her words tumbling between broken sobs, “but do you know how I suffered, too? I was desperate, Arnav. Desperate when I couldn’t see you, couldn’t touch you. The misunderstanding between us, it poisoned everything. And we… we never truly spoke. Not once. We both turned away. We let our silence ruin us.”Her grip tightened, as though she feared he might slip away again.“Just like you, I was in torment,” she whispered, her tears wetting his shoulder. “I was consumed by guilt… by shame. I was childish, stubborn, and selfish. I hurt you… and I abandoned my duty as a mother.”Then, with a shuddering breath, she spoke the words she had carried for years but never released. “Forgive me, Arnav. I… I was a terrible mother.“Mom…” For the first time in his life, Arnav’s tears fell freely. It was not a silent misting of the eyes but a raw, unrestrain

  • Taming The Charming Director   Swelled With Pride

    “Please, do not ruin the goodwill I bring tonight. I did not invite you all here to hurl accusations or to hear my wife condemned for something utterly senseless,” Arnav’s voice cut through the air like a steel blade, silencing the room in an instant.His authority was absolute, the kind that needed no raised voice, no physical force, just the weight of his presence.Sylvia’s fiery eyes faltered, her lips trembling before she lowered her gaze to the polished table. Across from her, Louisa, the sister Raellyn had nearly forgotten in the storm of emotions, followed suit, her posture shrinking into quiet submission. The venom that had laced their words only moments ago dissipated like smoke under the pressure of Arnav’s unshakable tone and just like that, order was restored to the table.Yet, Raellyn’s chest ached with the weight of it all. This wasn’t how it was supposed to be.She had envisioned a gathering of family, where understanding might grow and fractured ties could be carefully

  • Taming The Charming Director   Why He Silence Me?

    They hadn’t lived her nights of grief. They hadn’t felt the sting of betrayal or the hollow ache of losing everything before she had ever truly held it. And yet, these self-righteous, poisonous women spat judgment like they were gods on their thrones.A low, humorless laugh escaped her lips. At first, it was soft.Then it grew louder, richer, and darkened by scorn.Her laughter wrapped around the tense dining room, making every head turn toward her. She raised her chin, her gaze sweeping over the women across the table while the sister, the weeping Sylvia, the ever-composed Mrs. Chyntia as though she were standing at the peak of a mountain looking down at ants.Her left hand, trembling with restrained fury, found Arnav’s beneath the table and curled around it, a silent signal.Let me.Her fingers squeezed his hand, not in desperation, but in declaration. She was done being silent. Done letting venomous tongues strip her dignity bare.“I applaud you as well,” Raellyn said, her voice cal

  • Taming The Charming Director   They Knew Nothing

    For a single heartbeat, the table was silent. Then Sylvia’s restraint shattered. She surged forward, her voice rising in a pitch that dripped venom and despair.“Arnav! I’ve always respected you as my brother-in-law. But do you really not see it? Do you not realize that the child your wife carries is Arsene’s?!” Her hands trembled as they clutched the tablecloth, her eyes gleaming with unhinged fury and tears that refused to fall.Raellyn felt the blood drain from her face. Her heart slammed against her ribs as the words ricocheted across the table like shards of glass.“She’s been deceiving you from the start!” Sylvia spat, her voice trembling with the ugly marriage of grief and rage. “She used you, Arnav. I am certain! absolutely certain that this entire little performance tonight was her idea, wasn’t it?”She turned her attention like a knife toward Raellyn, hatred igniting in every syllable.“Tell me, Raellyn—do you enjoy this?!” Sylvia’s voice cracked into something feral. “Do yo
