Viaan’s POV:-

As I finished recounting the flashback, Leo’s surprised expression lingered, just as I expected.

“What? The old man hurried in singing the contract just to give a strong message across the industry.” His mouth hung open wide in amazement, as he applied the brake suddenly.

I shook my head and replied, “Even I was in the same state. Like, I knew he liked me but speeding up the process just to support me before my enemies…” I felt short of words to elaborate on what I felt. I was still wondering about last night and the way Mr. Miller said he thinks me of a son.

“Hmm! Seems like he is highly impressed by you.” With that, he again started the engine and continued driving. “So, practically it was him who planned everything and just asked you to come over.” Keeping an eye on the road, Leo concluded.

“Yes, it was his plan solely. And that’s why I said, it’s not even twenty-four hours that this was scheduled out of the blue,” I air-signed again, playfully emphasizing the spontan

    Kiara’s POV:-“I… I can’t tell you how painful it was for me to learn about all this from an event broadcast. I—” Maa gulped, wiping the cores of her eyes, “I felt like how worthless had I been in their lives that neither of them thought of informing me about such a massive thing. Like, how can I bear it, Sister, knowing that my only son was married for the past four months and, that too, to the girl I loved like my daughter and neither of them cared to tell me for so long? I felt not just cheated, but stabbed in my heart.” More tears poured out of her eyes and I couldn’t help but bite my lip harder to stop the urge to sob loudly.“After knowing everything, I realized that the sudden marriage was not their fault, instead it was forced, but I still can’t bring myself to make peace with the fact that my own didn’t tell me about such a crucial thing even after many days. Not even when he found Kiara here. Nor did she find it important.” She hiccuped, sniffing like a baby.‘That was not t

    Writer’s POV:-Adams Corps:-“…I have you back in my arms,” Viaan whispered seductively, the sultry tone lacing his voice as he continued the call.He knew what Kiara must be feeling right now, as he himself was feeling the same sensation. The conversation had taken an unexpected turn, evolving from a discussion about a simple meeting to Kiara’s worries about the property, and then, out of nowhere, a sudden surge of heat and longing enveloped them both.

Viaan straightened himself and heard a female staff’s distant voice through the phone. “The lunch is served, Ma’am.” She said to Kiara.Next, he heard Kiara’s respond to her. “Okay, you go bring Aaron to the dining area.

    GRACE:- As ordered, Robin called an urgent meeting with all the clients. This was a first in itself as never before had Hunter, as the CEO, attended a client meeting, let alone called one. It always had been either the head of the Market and Sales department head or Robin and the CMO of the company occasionally. That’s why, this time when Hunter called the meeting, he was feeling a bit prickly. The prospect of descending to a level he had deemed beneath his position left him feeling grumpy and, in a rare moment of vulnerability, a touch embarrassed. But they say you don’t do anything fate makes you do it. The same was happening with Hunter. Right now, the man was facing the same embarrassment. But, he cajoled his mind by saying it was all for the company and it was needed. Stepping into the conference hall, the man was feeling a bit skeptical. But as he made up his mind, he walked in and stood before a skeptical group of clients. Each face bore the weight of concern and doubt, a s

Jenny was taken aback by his early arrival. His usual stoic expression seemed deeper today, and the air around him carried an undeniable weight of grief. Concern etched across her face, Jenny greeted him at the door.“Hunter, sweetheart, you’re home early,” she remarked, surprised to see her son in this state.He looked at her with eyes that seemed to have witnessed more than what they could express. His shoulders slumped, and the usual spark in his gaze was replaced by a vacant stare. Jenny, sensing something amiss, instinctively touched his forehead, checking for signs of illness.“No fever,” she mumbled to herself, puzzled. “Hunter, what happened? Why do you look like this?”Ignoring her questions for a moment, Hunter walked past her and headed straight for the kitchen. Jenny followed,

    The news of Mr. Miller’s unexpected move hit Hunter like a sudden storm, and in a fit of rage, he dialed Evelyn’s number. The phone rang impatiently until she finally answered.“Hunter,” Evelyn greeted, but her usual calm demeanor wavered as she sensed the intensity in his voice.Hunter wasted no time. “Evelyn, how could you not inform me about Mr. Miller signing another project with Viaan Adams? Do I have to learn everything from the grapevines and media channels?” He almost roared at the lady, losing his patience.Evelyn’s composure cracked, mirroring Hunter’s agitation. “Hunter, I didn’t know about this either, okay? Uncle kept everything under wraps. It’s as surprising to me as it is to you.” She retorted in the same tone, then an instance clicked her mind and she grumbled back. “And as far as I remember, I did have told you that Uncle has proposed one more project to Viaan. Do you even remember it?”Realization dawned upon the man, recalling Evelyn’s words from a few days ago. Sh

As soon as they were done cleaning and drying their hands, Leena turned to Kiara.“Kia, Go give Sister a tour of our house. I’m sure she would love it.” Excitement danced in Leena’s eyes as she turned to Sister Mary. “I would have accompanied you instead of Kiara, but this sickness doesn’t allow me to ascend the stairs or walk some distance more than twice a day,” Leena added, a helpless chuckle escaping her.The trio stood in the living hall, where little Aaron gleefully played with the robot car Leena had gifted him earlier that day.“I would love to have a tour of your house, Leena. But at the same time, I also want to see you healthy. So, it’s okay. Let Kiara show me around while you take a rest,” Sister Mary said, her smile offering both understanding and warmth as she gently pressed Leena’s arms in a comforting way.“Thank you,” Leena replied, turning her gaze back to Kiara. “Go, Kia,” she ordered.“Let

Now give me my thing back!” He said over the call.“I am impressed with your quickness, Mr. Moore.” a masculine heavy voice was heard from the other side. “I thought you would still take a few more days. But no. You proved why this is priceless to you. Excellent, old man.” With a dark chuckle, the man added. The words were more like a mocking of Mr. Moore’s efforts, and that made the elderly man clench his fingers.Mr. Moore’s entire body shook with rage. At that moment, he wanted nothing but to thrash everything around. To get the man in a chokehold and punch him straight across the face for making him dance on his fingers. However, the helplessness of the situation had him holding from behind. He can’t act repulsive. Not at this stage when he is so close to the one thing that he has been finding for sever

    Viaan’s POV:-I helped Maa get down from the car, supporting her gently as she stepped onto the gravel path. As soon as her eyes fell on the scene in front of us, she froze. Her fingers tightened around my palm, clutching mine with a grip that spoke volumes.“Viaan, this…” She began, her voice trailing off as disbelief washed over her.Not believing what she saw, she was struggling to find the right set of words. Her lips wobbled putting an impromptu pause. She looked back at me, her gaze searching for confirmation, her body trembling slightly.That was my cue to confirm her doubts.With pride and emotions lacing my own voice, I squeezed her shoulders and nodded. “Paradis d’Amour, Maa. Our dream.” I announced, taking my mother in a half hug from sideways, holding onto her as tightly as I could.She averted her gaze back to the property. With a dip in her brows, she looked at me once again, “Huh?”I knew, I knew she was getting the meaning of my words but the yearning self of hers want

    Writer’s POV:-“Where are you taking us, Viaan? At least tell me now.” Leena asked for the nth time, getting annoyed at her son’s silence over the matter.Viaan, like the previous times, smiled mischievously and answered without looking back. “Patience, Maa, patience. You’ll come to know soon.”Leena scoffed audibly, narrowing her eyes at her son’s mischief, and scolded him lightly. “That ‘soon’ of yours has not come since the last three and a half hours of our journey. How long more would you keep it a secret?” Her eyes wrinkled at the corners while her nose flared in annoyance.Her anger didn’t seem to affect Viaan a bit as the man chuckled loudly. “As I said, it is a surprise, Maa. I’m not telling you to spoil the fun already.” He refused to reveal, making his mother smack his arms from the backseat.“You have become too naughty these days.” She said through her gritted teeth, only to get a burst of hearty laughter from her son.Huffing, she crossed her hands across her chest and s

    Writer’s POV:-“Thank you so much, Guys.” An emotional Viaan expressed his gratitude to the two of the constant pillars of his life.Receiving brotherly pats on his back as a response, he reluctantly broke the hug. His dull face was uplifted with the pure essence of their support throughout his life.“You —” Ryan started to speak, but then his eyes narrowed as he studied Viaan’s features more closely. “Were you crying, Viaan?” His eyes scanned Viaan’s face with concern.On cue, Leo also took a closer look. “Yeah, you look off!” He exclaimed, pointing out the obvious signs of distress.Viaan stilled. His smile dropped into a thin line. Immediately, he averted his eyes away from them and looked everywhere around.How come Ryan observed that? His shoulders tensed once again.“No. Why would I cry?” He chuckled nervously shrugging his shoulders, not wanting them to read his face further.“Then why are your eyes red and moist?” Ryan scoffed, narrowing his eyes. “Don’t lie through your teeth

Last night, I had to lie to Kia and Maa as I had spent entire hours in planning for the surprise for Maa. Then this morning the leftover documentation took my time while I also went to check for last-minute preparations. I just happened to come here one hour ago as I can’t go directly to home. And as soon as I came here, the first thing I did was to call Maa. She deserves the surprise the most.All through this while, I also kept myself reassured that this was not a dream anymore but a reality.A beautiful reality.A certain kind of peace filled my heart. I felt the cores of my eyes moistening up. Our dream was finally completed.“Paradis d’Amour is finally ours, Papa. I completed your and Maa’s dreams.” My voice choked with emotions as I looked at the picture frame on my desk while placing the keys reverently b

    Writer’s POV:-“Did Viaan tell when will he come?” Leena asked Kiara who was serving her breakfast.Her hands stopped in the air and she raised her head to her mother-in-law. “No, Maa. He had just dropped the text last night that he wouldn’t be coming home tonight as he had an urgent meeting and some important work. So, he is perhaps staying at the penthouse itself.” Kiara sighed, continuing to fill Leena’s plate.Leena nodded recalling the text Kiara showed her last night. Viaan had specifically mentioned to tell Leena about it, he himself didn’t text her thinking she must be asleep by then.It was around eleven in the morning. Both the ladies were having a late breakfast today, as Kiara was nauseous and not feeling good this morning; thus she had delayed her meal.Although Leena had something light earlier as she had to have medicines as well, she still joined Kiara in the late meal.It was Leena’s assistance that she was even eating, lest she was all ready to ditch the breakfast to

    Writer’s POV:-“And the man said that Mr. Adams is ready to meet at the earliest possible date,” Daniel revealed, sounding serious and firm.Hunter sat straight with a jerk, his brows dipping in. “How come he agreed this early? Didn’t he and his lawyer want time?” The question triggered his mind, he inquired in a disbelieving tone.The frown went deeper on his face; his eyeballs moving constantly as he tried to figure out Viaan’s step. One thing was crystal clear neither Viaan nor his lawyer saw this proposal as a simple invitation to get rid of legal troubles. Hence it was very much acceptable for his rival to seek time to agree or even deny.That’s why, even when this frustrated Hunter, he was ready for any secret investigation Viaan did on him. But little did he expect, that his acceptance would come this early and fast.He heard Daniel huffing from the other end and came out of his thoughts. “I have no idea, Sir. But if they are ready then why not proceed? This was the plan after

    Writer’s POV:-“Kia, calm down. Ryan said that he won’t reveal anything to Viaan.” Sophie tried to calm her down, but the girl was far from calming down.A ready havoc was created in her mind and heart and she had no idea how to deal with it.“But he didn’t even give me any time, Soph. All he allowed me is tonight.” Kiara retorted, holding her breath in apprehension.She can hear her heart pounding in her ears, and sweat beads adorning her temples even after the decreased temperature of AC.Her words followed a silence before Sophie sighed audibly. “You have taken more than you should, Kia. You can’t avoid it any longer. Dr. Ryan was right when he said the more delay you are making the harder it would be to make Viaan understand.” Sophie indirectly quoted Ryan’s words from the last evening.“Out of all people, you should be understanding my dilemma, Soph.” Kiara clicked her tongue, getting annoyed at not finding any solution. “I didn’t wait for Tyler to just wake up, but I needed to k

    Writer’s POV:-“Not only this but also the fact that Aaron is Tyler and Sophie’s son!” Ryan’s voice was steady, but there was a hint of solemnity in his tone.As Ryan dropped the bombshell, Kiara and Sophie froze, their eyes widening in shock. The words hung in the air, heavy with the weight of the revelation.A revelation that Kiara least expected today.The room fell into a stunned silence. The only thing audible at that moment was the ticking of the clock and the lazy evening wind coming through the open windows of Ryan’s cabin.With a composed face, Ryan watched the two women in front of him, trying hard to digest the truth he just disclosed.He knew this was going to be their reaction once her tells them the truth, but still watching them doing so, made him amused.Did they really think they would keep this massive truth away from him?Did they seriously think he wasn’t going to find it out, ever?
