*Maheshwari Pov*“You actually slapped me.” That’s all he said when Di and I walked into the house with James before us walking stiffly but stopped hearing his words.“Yes!” I mumbled ignoring James and continued to walk.“You actually…” he started saying again and Di groaned beside me.“For god’s sake! She slapped you, Nakul. If you are having trouble, don’t worry because we can see the marks clearly.” Di said and I winced seeing the marks myself.“Why did you?” he asked, frowning and I suddenly glared at him.How can he ask me that? I thought, fuming and then realized he must be thinking why did I do it even after already knowing about it.“I felt to do it.” I replied and he frowned.However, I walked near to him and said, “Can you promise me something?” and immediately heard James clearing his throat.“About what?” he asked frowning.“First promise!” I replied and he nodded frowning.“Don’t hurt my family.” I said and he stared at me like I have gone crazy.“What?” he asked, but I

*Maheshwari Pov*I glanced to my left the moment stepping into the cabin and sighed in relief for the curtains otherwise I would definitely go mad with his looks he recently acquired from the past two days. I sat in my chair and leaned back feeling mentally tired for sure.Why all this is happening in the first place? How can he even love me and that too from the beginning? How can he not love Di at all?I thought he was attracted to her when he called her by the name she said close people do and then he crazily accepted marriage proposal and wedding within two weeks.Wait! I thought sitting straight in my chair and rewinded the questions. He wanted to marry Di and would have if not for our intervention.Does he think I am so stupid? I thought, fuming but sat quietly. Maybe… maybe like James said that time, the company he would have acquired was important.He must have realized if he marries Di then he would get the company and decided to marry her. What a business minded, he is?And

*Swathi Pov*“What is wrong with you? Are you having tooth ache?” I asked him the moment entering the house to which he glared at me.“No!” he replied and continued to walk towards the room.“Then why were you gritting your teeth?” I asked, frowning to which he just took his clothes and moved towards the washroom.“Nope! I am not going to let you ignore me when yesterday you were breathing on my neck.” I said following him and he groaned.“I am already tired and need to freshen up. So, don’t irritate me.” He warned.“Why don’t you use your power of winning yesterday’s bet and ask me to back off?” I asked, wishing he did that by which I need not have to worry thinking what he will ask of me.“So, this is your plan?” he asked, smirking and suddenly held my wrist.“What are you doing?” I asked, but he dragged me into the washroom.“Irritate me all you want to.” He replied and closed the door before moving towards the shower.“Don’t stop on my account and I will just have my shower to sav

*Maheshwari Pov*“Hello?” I asked, lifting the phone ignoring the fact that he is calling.“Hello? Is that the way you greet your boss?” he asked and I smiled glancing at the curtains.“Sorry, Mr. Singh! Is there anything that needs to be done, Mr. Singh?” I asked and immediately covered my mouth to stop myself from laughing hearing his intake of breath which I am sure to control his frustration.“Yes! There is something you need to do, Mrs. Singh.” He replied and I leaned back smiling.“And that is?” I asked, moving to and fro in my chair.“Well, saying that you love me could be a start.” His reply made me lose my balance in my chair and I nearly fell back but stopped myself.“Is everything okay?” he asked and I calmed my fast beat before clearing my throat.“Yeah! I have some work to do.” I replied, trying to stop my hands from shivering.“Some work which your boss doesn’t know?” he asked and I closed my eyes.“Bye!” I whispered and hung up while still trying to stop my heart from b

*James Pov*I groaned hearing my phone ringing and opened my eyes to see the room is dark. Did I sleep for too long? I thought moving a little and sat up.Looking at the person sitting on the chair beside the chair made me fist my hand. I can’t believe I got fooled in this level.Actually, it was my mistake to change the plans. Now, there will be no changes at all. Within four months, it will be a goodbye.She slowly blinked her eyes when my phone started ringing again. I looked away, taking the mobile and lifted it with my good hand.“What is it?” I asked when one of the team member’s voice reached me.“Mr. Singh is here.” He replied and I sighed in relief.“He is awake?” I asked and can see a slight moment beside me but I ignored it completely.“The senior Mr. Singh is here.” His reply make me sit straight in silence.“Who informed him?” I asked him in a hard tone.“We didn’t do it, Sir. He has been in Mr. Singh’s room for the past five minutes.” He replied and I got down from the b
