●Khushi's P.O.V.●"I've liked you ever since we were kids, Khushi." He confessed while gloss formed in his orbs. "Why didn't you wait for me?"His palm approached my face gradually until his cold fingers caressed my cheek."I am sorry for leaving in a hurry, but I had planned to return victorious so that I could have you without any obstacles.So, I could ask Uncle Aunt to approve of your marriage to me without any difficulties." Sushant stated as the teardrop rolled down and remained on his cheek."But I never imagined that you would suddenly fall in love with another person and wed him without even informing me about it." He added. His words were dripping with pain."Why did you do it, Khushi?" His voice started trembling. "Why?"Except for one time when his dog passed away many years ago, I had never seen him so devastated.In our neighbourhood, Sushant was the serene and brilliant child every parent wished for. In contrast to me, who was an average child, he never caused trouble,

● Darsh's P.O.V.●I instantly dialled a number after exiting the airport and getting into the car. I mentally envisioned every possibility that may occur if Farina and the crew were unable to locate Khushi and my heart ached from beating so vigorously the entire flight.And it turned into the most frightening and uncomfortable trip I had ever experienced in my entire life after I immediately left Chennai and boarded my jet to Kolkata."Hello! What is the situation there?" I asked as soon as the line was connected after a few rings. My voice came out almost as a yell. The moments it took Tony to reply seemed like an eternity, and they were long enough to drive me insane."The situation is under control, sir. We found her. She is safe." He informed me.My body became light all of a sudden. I briefly felt lightheaded until a rush of relief swept over me. She is safe. Thank God. Thank God."But..." Tony paused. His remorseful tone was enough to bring me back to the brink of making unpleas

Tony, Ashif, and I were frustrated and furious at ourselves for losing Khushi, ma'am. The culprit's planning was on point. However, we were determined to correct our mistake and trace her down as soon as possible."I am 100% sure of the man on this floor." Tony raged. Ashif and I nodded as we knocked on every door on the second floor. Even though the manager was following us, he seemed quite hesitant to speak to us after he had just received a call.We were able to begin searching all the rooms because of Darsh Sinha. Being able to take over a hotel with just a phone call demonstrated how powerful he was.After checking a few rooms on the floor, I arrived closer to the rooms which were locked from the outside in a row. Though, as I was about to turn back, I heard a heavy male voice. My eyes caught a room in the distance, unlocked after a few locked rooms with a slightly opened door.My intuition told me Khushi Ma'am was there. Thus, I sprinted to that room and peeked in.Exactly as I

●Khushi's P.O.V.●"You're telling me that Darsh gave me a bath at night because the drug's effects were making me act strangely?" I questioned after listening to Farina describe everything."Exactly.""So he was just making fun of me," I murmured in realisation."You said something, ma'am?" Farina hunched over."Nothing!" I smiled broadly as I cast a cheery gaze up at Farina."You changed my clothes, right?" I asked her to confirm my doubts."Yes, of course, ma'am." She answered with assurance.I sighed in relief, "Thank God.""Where did you take the man who tried to abduct me?""That can't be revealed. I'm sorry, ma'am." My eyes squinted at her suspiciously, but she just stood there, unbothered.I continued to stare at her with suspicion for a few more seconds before giving up. "I hope that man will be held accountable lawfully for what he did." Then I picked up the glass of water from the table and caught Farina flashing a forced, phoney smile at my words.But as soon as I took a s

●Khushi's P.O.V.●"You looked adorable while defending me, little wife." He mumbled, flashing a dangerous grin. "Could you act more like that for me?"And my heart skipped a beat.It should be illegal to flirt with that charming face.I inhaled deeply before firmly shoving Darsh's hand away and exclaiming, "Absolutely not!" His confused gaze expanded."Is something wrong?" Darsh questioned me in a befuddled manner."Don't come this close to me from now on!" I ordered."Why not?""It's just...." I took a breath and lowered my head to cover the heat on my cheeks.Darsh's lips curled slightly to the left as he hunched down to my eye level. "By any chance... does it make your heart flutter?"His question made me glance up at him, and I panicked. Is he reading my mind now?"I didn't read your mind." He mumbled. "It is simply written all over your face."My face turned bright red, listening to his words. I squeezed my eyes and pushed back Darsh, pressing on his chest with both my hands."St
