●Khushi's P.O.V.●

I noticed a significant number of reporters waiting immediately outside the airport as I exited.

"Is any celebrity travelling today by flight? Why are there so many of them?" I pondered as I walked slowly out of the airport.

But the moment I stepped outside, every journalist surrounded me and began peppering me with a variety of questions. And I realised they were all gathered here to interview me.

They are here for me? Why? Don't tell me they are here for me because I am the wife of Darsh Sinah? Geez!

I felt horrible about getting crushed by the journalists.

"Good day, ma'am. It's nice to see you back here in Kolkata."

"Why have you decided to come back to Kolkata all of a sudden?"

"How long will you be staying here?"

Those questions were casual, but I felt suffocated, surrounded by them. They grew closer despite my attempts to avoid them. Invading someone's personal space was now extremely disrespectful.

I was on the verge of yelling at them when I saw that three

The man continued as he reached for us with a handkerchief in his hand while keeping his unblinking gaze fixed on my eyes.I concentrated all of my effort and pushed the man till he fell to the ground, wailing."He—" I attempted to scream, but one of the thugs grabbed my hair and lifted me off the ground before I could. I tried to hold Mandira's hand, but I couldn't."Di??" Mandira cried as someone else held her back.The man clamped my mouth shut with his left hand as he gritted his teeth and said, "Don't you dare be that overly smart or.."I attempted to throw my hands and feet to get free, but I was unsuccessful. The man who was grabbing me was way stronger compared to me. He continued to yank me away from Mandira.Then he paused as a wicked smile approached his lips. "Go to sleep now, Princess." He finished his sentence as the other man from earlier tried to place the handkerchief on my mouth again. I was certain that the h

It might be called off if word gets out! And you know that if that happened, Papa would kill himself! He puts his respect above everything for." She continued, crying."Mandu, hear me out first!" I tightened my hold on her shoulder and shook her. She finally looked up at me."Do you have any evidence to prove that he is blackmailing you?""Huh?""Do you have any evidence to prove that your ex is blackmailing you? Any chats? Call recordings?""But di—""Just tell me!" I stuck to my point. Mandira gave the empty space a long minute of silent attention before shaking her head."Shit!""But, Di, I told you I can't—""Mandu, I'll manage the Police! I'll make sure no one knows what happened, but we definitely need some proof." I said, trying to think of a way out."A-are you sure?" With hope, she enquired."Yes. I think I ca

    ●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.●"You don't have any meetings for today, Master Darsh." As he examined the Notepad screen, Uncle Hemant said."Hmm.""Master Darsh?""Hmm?""Are you anxious about anything?" Uncle Hemant asked."Why do you ask?" I asked him, looking up at him in curiosity."You seem to zone out too much these days. I thought you might have been stressed over something." As he took the seat across from me, he continued."You could say that I'm a little anxious. Khushi was attacked by a street gang." I explained as I poured my glass of wine."What?" Uncle Hemant gasped. "How is she? How did it happen?""Calm down, Uncle Hemant. She's alright. I've dispatched three bodyguards to keep her safe." I stated before sipping my wine."Aaah, thank God!" He sighed, and his expression relaxed gradually."Yet I feel that something is off with her. Perhaps, someone wants to harm her." I explained as I turned to face the glass window.With an orange tinge in the sky, the sun was setting to the west.

    ● 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

    ●Darsh's P.O.V.●My whole body shivered as Khushi continued to pull me closer and kept savouring my bottom lip. My cheeks turned red as everything happened so fast. I could hear my heartbeat in my ears.It wasn't such a tight grip that I couldn't break free; however, I didn't mind getting kissed by my wife. Putting both of my hands next to Khushi's neck on the bed, I hovered over her and returned her gesture with a pleasing grin.That simple kiss messed with my head, and soon I closed my eyes, relishing the little intimacy. That was Khushi's first time initiating the closeness, and it surprisingly had my senses thrown out the window.This experience was unusual compared to tasting other women. I had absolutely no desire to have her until that moment.I would have been even happier if she had been in her senses, but somewhere in my heart, I knew Khushi wouldn't kiss me when she is sober.Would she?But Khushi didn't stop at that kiss.I soon felt her grip on my waist. Khushi abruptly po

    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.●I woke up in the sunlight, streaking over my eyes and making it difficult to sleep anymore. I stretched my back and got out of my sleeping position, letting out a yawn."Ouch.." and a heaviness covered my head."What the heck! I feel as if someone kicked me in the head!" I murmured while massaging my head."Anyway, I should probably take a shower. Today I need to go shopping with Mandu!" I said as I was about to descend the bed, but then I paused as I caught the view of my clothes.A dress?!Since when do I go to sleep wearing a dress?! No, since when did I have this dress?I raised an eyebrow to take a peek around and quickly discovered it wasn't my bedroom either. My heart began to pound.Where in the world am I? I covered my head with both my hands as I questioned myself, endeavouring to recall anything."Stop yelling." I recoiled at the dominating male voice that suddenly spoke. But as my vision shifted to the left, I experienced a 440-volt jolt. It was none other

It's just our anniversary party." Darsh said, kissing my head."I'm not sure." I grinned apprehensively."Just breathe.Or I can help you relax." As his arms began to gradually encircle my stomach, he whispered in my ears."Darsh!Everyone is at home." I scolded him."So what? You are my wife, and this is my house. I can always express my love to my wife." He said and started placing slow kisses on my neck, sending shivers down my spine."Darsh, would you please stop?" After a groan, I spoke."Well, you certainly don't sound like you want me to." I heard him chuckle in my ears as he kissed me down my neck and moved to kiss my back. I was about to push him away when our bedroom door was knocked on by someone."Everyone is waiting for you downstairs, Master and My Lady." Uncle Hemant spoke up from the outside."His timing

    ●Khushi's P.O.V.●Bip...bip..bip…The heart rate machine kept beeping as I stared at Darsh's unconscious face. He was unresponsive as he lay on the hospital bed. His face was covered in bruises, and bandages were placed across his body.I kept praying for him to wake up as tears streamed down my face. It had been a day already since he had been there.It was not a great view to look at. Nobody was aware of the cause of Darsh's fragile state. Though we assumed Harsh Raj beat him by taking advantage of the time when he was helpless.But the main question was, why did he not fight back and protect himself? I couldn't stop asking those questions to myself.When I was busy contemplating, I felt his hand move a little. Wondering if it was just my imagination, I focused all my concentration on him. I gaped when Darsh finally slowly opened his eyes after a few seconds.I wiped my tears away quickly and drew nearer to him.Darsh closed and opened his eyelids quite a few times. He appeared to b

    ●Darsh's P.O.V.●My phone rang while I lay powerless on the ground. I struggled to get it out and answered the phone."H-ello.." I uttered in my trembling voice."Darsh, our plan is successful." From the other end of the call, Akash informed me.My dejected eyes brightened as I slowly rose to my feet while holding onto the trunk of the car."Send the cops," I smiled through my painful, gushing wounds as I ordered and disconnected the call."Harsh Raj?" I spoke clearly enough for Harsh Raj to hear. He came to a stop and looked at me with a knitted brow as he turned around."Has the shock driven you insane?" He smirked."Uh, well, there is no fellow alive in the world to make me go insane," I said, smiling through my bloody teeth. Harsh Raj appeared uneasy when he observed my sudden confidence."Then, what is it?" However, he still managed to smirk."Heh, It's your end that I could see with my open eyes," I grinned, earning a sneer from him."You're still trying to act arrogant after lo

    ●Darsh's P.O.V.●I was waiting at the mentioned address for twenty minutes. It was an empty region with a deserted roadway and tall, wild trees lining both sides of it. Every two minutes, I glanced at my wristwatch and looked around to check if Harsh Raj was there or not.Only I knew how I was able to leave my office, avoid the reporters, and make it to my destination at the specified time.Every second that went by made me more and more frustrated. I hit the steering wheel, clicking my tongue in fury. It was my mistake to not make sure whether the guard was being strict and proper at the hospital. Khushi wouldn't have to experience such a nightmare if I were a bit more cautious.How could I have overlooked the possibility that Harsh Raj might harm Khushi? How? I hit my head on the steering wheel, feeling my skin crawl with fear deep inside my heart.Why is he still not here? Wait! Did he lie to me? Will he kill her before we meet?I flinched at a startling noise, but when I realised

    ●Khushi's P.O.V.●I remained in the room alone as Akash left, having promised me that he would deliver the message I had sent to Darsh.The words from Uncle Hemant and Akash were still circling in my head.Doesn't that mean Darsh has truly changed if Akash can even recognise his sincerity towards me? He genuinely wants to be with me for his love and not to uphold his reputation.Maybe I should give him one chance to prove his words. I thought about it as I consumed the food that the nurse had given me.After a while, the doctor came and checked me up."How are you feeling, Mrs. Sinha?""Better.""That's great. Any dizziness or headache?""Last night, I felt a little lightheaded, but I'm fine now. Though I can feel a slight headache," I answered."It'll be alright soon," He assured me with a smile."Has Mr. Sinha left the hospital, by the way, Mrs. Sinha?" He lowered the stethoscope from his ears and asked.I replied, "Yes, he left a while ago," in a low voice, while his name made me r

    ●Darsh's P.O.V.●I fixed my gaze on the screen displaying Rishav Mittal and Harsh Raj's earlier works, which they had attempted to conceal but which my spies had dug up from the grave."F***king Pervert Ba*****!" As I looked at the data on the screen, I clicked my tongue."You are shocked as well, Master? When I read the case of Harsh Raj raping and killing a girl, I felt the same way.After that, Harsh Raj threatened to kill her other family members to shield himself from the law. In the end, the victim's family was powerless to take action against him, and he got out of it easily." While wiping the sweat from his brow, Uncle Hemant stated it."As I suspected, Harsh Raj is really a filthy pig. We have just unlimited files to send him behind bars." I expressed my anger as I spoke. I was truly disgusted by Harsh Raj."Mittal is also involved in illicit activity, but it is all associated with business. The real scumbag is Harsh Raj.First, we need to take down Harsh Raj anyhow. Then, usi

    ●Khushi's P.O.V.●When I lost my memory, I always had the strange sensation that something inside me was forcing me to treat Darsh terribly without any cause. When I regained my memories, I realised those were old memories, which motivated me to return the favour.I wanted to forget about him. I wanted to despise him. My desires came true, but the unknown made me fall in love with him again? And even then, I found him with that woman, Anannya, in an intimate position. Once again!Darsh claimed he had evidence to support his innocence this time but I couldn't find the strength to forgive him.It felt like fate was playing a sick joke on me.Why would I be upset if Darsh started dating someone else when we had a contract to marry each other? I was behaving selfishly even when I promised myself I'd be professional.As I watched Darsh leave my room, a tear trickled from my eye. Those past few months had been incredible for me too. The way we discovered each other at that time was strangel

    ●Darsh's P.O.V.●Later that night~A nurse approached Khushi's room, carrying a food tray. I got up and stopped her."Let me take it to her," I said.The nurse blinked twice before nodding her head and handing over the tray of food to me. I inhaled and exhaled heavily before going into her room.As soon as I entered, I found Khushi sobbing, sitting on the bed with her face buried in her palms. I hurried over to her, set the tray down next to her bed, and worriedly asked, "What's wrong?""Khushi, what's wrong? Why are you crying? Tell me!" I touched her head.Khushi slowly raised her face, wiping her tears away as her eyes grew furious."Nothing!" She declared. "Just leave."I couldn't help but neglect her order."When I used to cry, you always stayed with me and comforted me," I said, feeling remorseful. "But today, when you're crying, I'm not sure how to make you feel better.I'm not great at comforting people.Actually, I had never really comforted anyone before.But if you tell me

    ●Darsh's P.O.V.●"Yes."I was completely speechless at Khushi's reply. I didn't know what to say to her anymore. My voice got stuck somewhere inside my throat as the sweat beads formed on my temples.I didn't know how she was going to react at that moment. In my entire life, that was the situation I dreaded the most. I was frightened to hear about the old days when I was a jerk to her. When I treated her so poorly!"Well, I….I…." I tried to speak but couldn't find the exact word to put in a sentence. Khushi was staring down at me with the same smile on her lips."I want you to know that what you witnessed at the office wasn't true. I can prove it. You can check the footage." I finally blurted it out anxiously."Let's not talk about all this," Khushi murmured."What? Why not?" My fear was replaced by confusion. I was certain she didn't forgive me for kissing Anannya, so why was she avoiding the topic?"I think I have done enough of these things after memory loss." She smiled."What thi
