The Girl They Betrayed Chapter 75: What Remains
Three years passed.And slowly, almost imperceptibly, the story Mumbai’s business press had once breathlessly called “the wedding of the century” became something quieter.The headlines faded.The photographs stopped appearing on magazine covers.The endless speculation about Aanya Oberoi and Zayn Raizada eventually gave way to something far less glamorous and infinitely more meaningful—the ordinary, complicated, beautiful work of building a life together.Because that was what remained when the spectacle disappeared.A marriage.A family.A company.A thousand ordinary mornings.And two people who had learned that choosing each other once was easy compared to choosing each other every single day afterward.Oberoi Technologies had grown far beyond anything Aanya had imagined when she first sat at her family’s breakfast table and proposed the idea of building an agricultural technology company.Under her continued leadership, it had become one of the country’s most influential agricult
The Girl They Betrayed Chapter 74: The Queen
The wedding unfolded over three unforgettable days at the Oberoi family’s coastal estate south of Mumbai—a celebration surrounded by extraordinary wealth, influence, and security, yet somehow intimate enough to feel deeply personal.For all the grandeur surrounding them, Aanya and Zayn had made one thing clear from the beginning: this wedding was not going to be a performance.It was going to be theirs.Their relationship had never been built on spectacle. It had been built on honesty, trust earned through impossible circumstances, vulnerability revealed in quiet moments, and two people choosing one another even when walking away would have been infinitely easier.The wedding would be no different.The mehendi ceremony was held on the estate’s expansive lawn, where the Arabian Sea stretched endlessly beyond the property, its waves catching the golden afternoon sunlight. The entire Oberoi family had gathered, along with Zayn’s carefully chosen circle of genuine friends and loyal associ
The Girl They Betrayed Chapter 73: Preparing the Ground
The months following their engagement brought a whirlwind of preparation neither Aanya nor Zayn had fully anticipated.With the considerable resources, influence, and social standing of both families now combined, what should have been a private celebration quickly became a subject of enormous public fascination. Their engagement alone had generated weeks of speculation, and the approaching wedding only intensified it.Aanya occasionally found herself wondering how something that felt so deeply personal had, almost overnight, become a matter of national curiosity.“Every major publication in the country wants exclusive coverage,” her communications director reported during one particularly overwhelming planning meeting.She slid a thick stack of media requests across the conference table.“The wedding of India’s youngest self-made billionaire founder to one of the country’s most notorious business figures. From their perspective, the story practically writes itself.”Aanya stared at t
The Girl They Betrayed Chapter 72: A Question of Forever
The weeks following their visit to Zayn’s mother’s grave brought with them a quiet certainty neither Aanya nor Zayn had expected to find so soon.Something between them had shifted.It was no longer the cautious, complicated romance that had once been defined by questions, guarded emotions, and the dangers surrounding their lives. The vulnerabilities they had shared—the fears they had confessed, the memories they had revealed, and the parts of themselves they had trusted only to each other—had slowly transformed their relationship into something far deeper.Something permanent.For the first time, they were no longer simply surviving each chapter together.They were beginning to imagine what came after.It was Vihaan, characteristically direct despite his usual preference for humor over serious conversations, who finally gave voice to the question that had clearly been occupying the entire family’s thoughts for weeks.“So,” he said, cornering Zayn during a quiet family dinner while Aa
The Girl They Betrayed Chapter 71: The Grave
The third revelation came nearly two months later.And unlike the first two, this one wasn’t something Aanya discovered by accident.Zayn chose to show it to her.It happened on an ordinary Sunday morning.Except Sundays had never really been ordinary for Zayn.Throughout their entire relationship, he had always kept this particular day carefully separate from everything else in his life. No unnecessary meetings. No business discussions. No interruptions unless something was genuinely urgent.It was a standing commitment.An unbreakable one.Aanya had noticed it, of course.But she had never questioned it.Some boundaries, she had learned, weren’t meant to be crossed through curiosity.They were meant to be approached through patience.That morning, however, Zayn arrived at the mansion earlier than usual.He wasn’t dressed in one of his perfectly tailored suits.Instead, he wore simple clothes, his appearance noticeably more understated than she was accustomed to seeing.But it wasn’t
The Girl They Betrayed Chapter 70: The Strays
Aanya discovered another unexpected piece of Zayn almost entirely by accident.It happened several weeks later, after a late business meeting near the docks had stretched far beyond what either of them had anticipated.By the time they finally left, it was well past midnight.The city had changed around them.The crowded commercial streets had grown quieter, the usual noise of traffic fading into the distant hum of the sleeping city as Zayn personally escorted Aanya toward the car.She was exhausted.But she noticed something strange when they passed a narrow alley beside one of his warehouse properties.Zayn slowed.Not because of a threat.Not because he had noticed suspicious movement.There was none of the immediate alertness she had become accustomed to seeing in him when danger was nearby.Instead, his attention seemed drawn toward the shadows for an entirely different reason.Aanya followed his gaze.“What is it?”“Nothing dangerous.”His answer came almost too quickly.Then he
