He sat on a chair beside her bed and caressed her face as he said to her, " It's my birthday Nichole. Do you remember, when we were kids how excited you used to be for this day? Even when I would have not been willing to celebrate my birthday, you forcefully would do all the arrangements on your own. This day was no less than a festival for you. You used to wait for this day more eagerly than anyone else.""And today, I don't expect anything from you except that you wake up and just say 'Happy Birthday to me. Please get up Nichole. For God's sake, please come back to us." Ryan started crying after saying this.He covered his face in his hands and kept crying for a few seconds. But still, Nichole didn't give any response. With a disappointed expression, he stood up from there and turned to leave suddenly when he heard a weak voice, " H-Happy B-Birthday Ryan."As he looked at Nichole, she was smiling at him looking extremely pale. He stammered with joy as he leaned towards her and said
"What about this if we get married to our kids and then stay as a family together after that?" Ryan's father asked with a smile on his face.Hearing his suggestion, Nichole's father was rendered speechless. Though at one time, he was also willing to marry Nichole to Ryan, after seeing the result of her marriage with Daniel, he couldn't dare to ask Nichole for getting married again.No doubt, he wanted her to settle down in her life, but before that, he wanted to give her some time so that she could forget the sufferings from her first marriage.With this thought, he decided to reject this proposal. But before he spoke anything, he looked at Nichole's face. And surprisingly, she didn't seem to be tense as she was when Daniel came with a marriage proposal to their house. Was it because she still loved Ryan and wanted to start afresh with him?So after thinking for a few seconds, he finally said to Ryan's father, " Before I take any decision, I would like to ask both Nichole and Ryan to
Ryan gave a smile and dragged her outside on the lawn. As their parents saw them coming hand in hand with a smile on their faces, they eventually understood what their decision was. But still, just to tease them a little, Ryan's mother asked Ryan, "So what you guys have decided?""I have decided to purchase another house with 3 floors in which one will be your and dad's, one for Nichole's mom and dad, and one for me and Nichole. That way, there will be no issue regarding privacy and we can live together also." Ryan replied to his mother with a serious expression on his face.Though he didn't say clearly that they have agreed to marry each other, he made everyone clear that they needed to prepare for the wedding sooner.Trying to control her laughter, Ryan's mother said to him, " At this age, we don't need any privacy. So you and Nichole can live on a separate floor and we old folks will stay on the same floor. That way, when you and Nichole will not be around, I and Mrs. Fernandez wil
"Both of you, just focus on your shopping and leave the rest for us to manage. You don't need to worry about anything else, ok?" Ryan's father said as he looked at them one by one."Ok, dad," Ryan said and left from there with Nichole. As soon as they both sat in the car, Ryan immediately held Nichole by her wrist and pulled her closer towards him so that their bodies collided with each other and Nichole almost fell on him. He tucked a few strands of her hairs from her face behind her ear as he said to her, " So finally we are getting married. Doesn't it seem like a dream coming true?"Nichole looked in his eyes and moved her face closer to him so that her lips almost touching his lips and said to him while caressing his face with her finger, " Indeed, this wedding is going to be a dream wedding."Ryan smiled at her with a smirk and said to her seductively, " If you keep doing this, then don't blame me if I lose control and eat you up before our wedding."Nichole's face immediately fl
Nichole pulled away from her embrace and took her hand in her hands as she said to her, " Instead I should be thankful to you auntie. If you had not come to meet me in the hotel room that day, perhaps I would have missed out a lot of things including being with all of you.""This is the last time you are calling me auntie. If you dare to repeat it again, then I will show you how alike a mother-in-law is." Ryan's mother said to her with a fake angry expression on her face."Oh, I am sorry mom. I will never call you auntie again." Nichole said in an apologetic tone as she touched her both ears with her hands."That 's like a good girl." After saying this, Ryan's mother covered Nichole's face with her gown's veil and said to everyone, "Let's go. Now, I am more than eager to see my son's wedding. So just don't waste any more time."Everyone nodded as they walked towards the outside. Ryan left with his parents in one car for the church whereas Nichole and her parents left in another car.A
At 10 pm they reached their home. Ryan urged Nichole to walk upstairs but she emphasized on waiting for their parents as they were in a separate car and even they left together from the hotel, they couldn't make to reach the home even after half-hour since Parth and Sarah reached the home, all thanks to Parth's high-speed driving.After waiting for a few minutes, finally, they reached the home. As they entered the house, Ryan's mother said jokingly to him, " If only you have known that you would need to wait for us, perhaps you wouldn't have driven at such a fast speed."Everyone laughed hearing her as Ryan said to her trying hard to hide his embarrassment, " Oh please, I didn't want to wait for you. It was your daughter-in-law who had made me stay here."Nichole opened her mouth to say something but her mother-in-law immediately stopped her saying, "No more arguments. You both must have tired with the activities of the day. So go and get some rest."Both Ryan and Nichole nodded their
"What? How is that possible? And when did he come out of prison? And what he is doing here?" Ryan asked all the questions in one go with annoyance."I can't tell you anything on the phone. You just hurry up and come to the living room. And make sure to not let Nichole know about this." She hung up the phone after saying this.Ryan tried to calm down himself and decided to face Nichole without showing any sign of abnormality. But when he turned around, he was stunned to see her state. she was completely covered in sweat even in the air-conditioned room.Ryan sat beside her and took her in his embrace. He then tried to comfort her saying, " You don't need to be scared of anyone. I am always with you. Do you trust me?"Nichole looked into his eyes and as she noticed a sense of protectiveness and assurance in his eyes, she felt like her fear was fading away. So she wiped away her tears and nodded her head as she said to him, " Let me get dressed. Then we both will go together."Though his
"But I deliberately chose this time because I wanted to make you realize how it feels when someone takes away your favorite dessert out of your mouth. You interrupted my wedding night with her and I did the same with you. Now we are even." Jack started laughing again after saying this.After that, he looked at Nichole who was still crying in her mother's arms. He walked towards her and sat on the floor near her as he said to her, " Don't cry, baby. I know you love him and he loves you. But trust me I love you more than you both love each other. That's why I have been chasing you even after sacrificing everything.""And see, I am also a divorcee now. So now I will not make you my mistress, I will make you my wife now. We'll get married and live happily after ever." Jack said as he tried to take her hand in his hands.But Nichole immediately brushed aside him and buried her face in her mother's arms. Seeing this cold response from her, Jack got angry as he said to her in an opposite ton
