Mr. Smith's laboratory:-

Kiara's POV:-

Robin Sir smirked at the answers she gave and then turned his gaze to me. We shared a look that said 'Served him right!'

Mr. Smith grimaced his face as he glared at Gaby. It was clear from his red ears that he was controlling his anger internally and would burst any moment. However, before he could say anything, Robin Sir diverted the topic and we couldn't be more thankful.

"Hey, your skin is shining differently." He pointed at Gaby's hand.

She creased her forehead at the sudden mention and looked at her hand which was earlier crossed on her chest. Uncrossing her hands, she held it up, still looking confused but then her creases faded away slowly and her lips curled into a beautiful smile. Clearly, she was familiar with this thing.

"It's looking smoother, isn't it?" Excited, she asked, extending her hand in front of us. Her eyes held a different shine which insinuated the efforts she put in to bring out this special effect in the formula.

"Yes?

    Writer's POV:-Carter's:-“I can understand, Sam!” Leena nodded her head excitedly. "And I'm equally thrilled about this event." She admitted, drifting her gaze away from Samantha's face. The same thought again wrapped her mind. Ryan and Maya's wedding will be bringing more zeal than expected.She was eventually looking forward to this occasion for two main reasons: one, her love for Ryan and Maya. She wants to see them getting hitched finally. And two, which was the major reason, was, as Ryan was now getting married, she can ask him to help her convince Viaan for a marriage, too. Also, their wedding will be an example of her suggestion when she will put it forward again in front of her son. It was undoubtedly required.Needless to say, despite Viaan asking for some time for this big event of his life, she just couldn't stop thinking about getting her son married sooner.Frankly, in some corner of her heart there was this fear gripping her irrevocably that like Vivian she might also

    Writer's POV:-Carter's:-"Is it from the party they enjoyed that evening?" She pointed out the photo, which was of Viaan and the group from the night of their casual party at the lounge. "Yes, it is! Why what happened? Haven't you seen them? Maya said she sent you, too!" Sam confirmed her doubt before asking.Leena's brows furrowed as she zoomed in on the picture. Although she had seen pictures from that evening, as both Viaan and Kiara had shown her when they came back. But this was one such picture she never came across.It was, though, a casual photo of Ryan and Maya, who were smiling at the camera, with their arms around each other. All normal, right? But not from Leena's point of view. For her, what was objectionable in that particular snap was Viaan and Kiara's sitting posture in the background.They were sitting a little farther in a corner that was barely covered in the camera's frame. Perhaps because the frame was focused on Ryan and Maya, who were close to the lens. Yet

  • CEO's Hidden Marriage   Terribly wrong

    Pinnacle:-Writer's POV:-"What happened? You're sounding enraged!" He pointed out, shutting his laptop.Since she told him she was going to the penthouse, he anyway had to go now. "I'm not enraged… at least not yet." He heard her answer cryptically and her harsh tone, which she failed to conceal, rang a loud siren in his mind already. Something was definitely wrong… drastically wrong, perhaps. Her tone and words confirmed his doubts. "I'll see you in five minutes," Viaan said, deciding against his urge to question her last sentence as ultimately he will get to know it in less than ten minutes. He cut the call and pushed the phone into his pocket before picking up his coat.Showing exceptional swiftness, he fetched his stuff next and exited the cabin without further delay. On the way, he found Neil coming out of his cabin, much to his ease."Neil, I've some urgent work so I'm leaving now. You prepare the report and send it to me before you go." Asking Neil to send him the daily rep

    Viaan's Penthouse:-Writer's POV:-"Baby, what happened? Why are you crying?" Taking her in his arms, he cupped her face. As he was kneeling before her, her hands which were just a moment ago holding her head, came sliding on his arms, although carelessly. Kiara looked at him, unfazed, before bombing the question."Did you tell Mr. Smith to hire me in his company?" She stared at him with blank eyes while she asked in a calm tone. Though it was the calmness before the storm. "What?" Viaan stilled in his posture. His shoulders went stiff in a fraction of a second. His fingers, rubbing her cheeks, paused abruptly right there. "You heard me, Viaan. Did you ask him to hire me in his company and then fire me within a few days only?" She fired another question, this time confirming his doubts. She threw an accusatory glance at him. Her hoarse voice and alleged tone pinched his heart. The eyes that always held love for him shone with condemnation, adding more to his heartache.A known fear

    Viaan's Penthouse:-Writer's POV:-"Mr. Smith told you about this, didn't he?" He gritted his teeth, asking acidly.His eyes darkened at the thought of that lewd man talking to her. But wasn't that supposed to happen when the company she works for is the newest ally of Mr. Smith!? "I should have known that man is going to show his true colors." His jaws clenched more, he fisted his fingers in angst. Mr. Smith's shrewd face spun in front of his eyes adding more to his rage.Oh, how he wished he could deliver a tight punch straight in his face right now.Meanwhile, Kiara snapped his eyes at him and looked at him in incredulity; like he had said the most unbelievable words on the planet. Disbelief was so deep and evident in her eyes that for a second she thought she misheard things. However, to her dismay, each word that reached her ears was as real as a crystal clear truth. With that confirmation, her face twisted in agony, and she questioned menacingly. "Seriously, Viaan? This is wha

    Viaan’s Penthouse:-Writer’s POV:-“Why, Viaan? Why did you do this? Did you not once think about what mess you’re throwing me in?” Her question broke his stupor. She held his shirt in fists and shook him angrily, pouring out all the anger and pain her heart had burned with. "Did you hate me so much to involve that filthy man in your plan? Did you not know what's Mr. Smith's reputation was? Or did you really want me to get mol–" "Kiara!" Viaan kept a hand over her lips, stopping her from completing the sentence. His eyes changed their color as the realization dawned upon him.She isn't so wrong to have this perception about his older self. Especially after the revelation. Kiara pulled her face away from his touch, feeling heartbroken and betrayed."Why, Viaan? Why are you stopping me now when it's only you who created it all? And then you're blaming me for mistrust!" Her tears ran along with the words that flew out of her mouth. Tone questioning was still painful as she never expect

    Adams' Villa:-Maya smiled, then held her hand and squeezed it warmly. "But, I can't say the same for you, Aunty. Tell me what's troubling you so deeply that your face has these lines of stress?" She wiggled her eyebrows, questioningly. "Even on the phone, you were sounding stressed and worried!" Leena's smile faltered upon hearing her question. She was indeed stressed and no matter how much she tried, she couldn't just hide everything from her face. Especially not when she had been thinking about this particular topic the entire night. While she averted her gaze, lost in something, Maya was quick to notice the sudden cast of sadness on her face. Her forehead creased more thinking about the matter. It seemed denser than she had thought when she had received a call from Leena an hour ago. The latter had asked her to come to Adams' Villa as she knew Maya was on leave today. So, after Viaan and Kiara left for their respective offices, the woman had called her.However, as merrily as

    Adams' Villa:-"Aunty, this… how... I mean… where…" "That means you know!" Leena interrupted her stuttering, giving her a blank stare. "Aunty, I think there's some confusion… it's not as it seems!" Maya tried to think of a quick excuse to cover up the fact. She once again looked at the photo, which was the same photo of Viaan and Kiara that she saw yesterday on Samantha's phone, and her eyes enlarged more when Leena slid the picture bringing another image onto the screen.This one was the image in which Viaan had his head on Kiara's and they were smiling at each other, forgetting the world. "Is it so? Then will you please explain this?" Leena said stoically, noticing the change in her expression.This time Maya's face turned white like she saw some ghost. She switched her eyes from the photo to Leena's face. An internal dilemma messed up her mind.Maya doesn't know what to tell now as things were apparent in the zoomed-out picture.Leena sighed sparingly. "Your face says it all, M

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

    Back in the present time, The PenthouseViaan’s POV, :Looking at the keys, I fisted them tightly. I was in my penthouse where I had come just an hour ago to get freshened up. 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

  • CEO's Hidden Marriage   Paradis d'Amour was finally mine!

    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?
