Kiara stared at her with an open mouth. Leena herself was suggesting to keep things under wraps from her own son.

"Aunty, but what if he comes to know?" She asked, chewing on her lips. No doubt Leena's option was a lifesaver for her in this crucial time, but the offer involves frightening risk and, apparently, she was in no position to take such risk. Hence the fear.

Rolling her eyes at her question, Leena asked in a miffed tone. "Are you going to tell him?" She crossed her hands and wiggled her brows.

"What?" Panic rushed in Kiars's nerves and she shook her head frantically. "No… no, Aunty, why would I tell him?" Eyes big like saucers, she stressed every word.

"If you are not going to tell him. And I am certainly not doing so considering I myself suggest the plan. Then who do you think is going to snitch on us, Kiara?" Leena deadpanned, scoffing at her internally.

As if the realization hit her hard, she made an 'o' with her lips.

"I think you're —"

    "What do you mean, Viaan?" Asked Leena skeptically. "What do you get to know?"Now that the truth was out, she feared for Kiara facing Viaan's rudeness.His eyes darkened at the question. His plan was halfway through, and it was time to execute the next part."I got to know that she is leaving her place in a day and I'm sure she is going to leave the city. And I'm not big-hearted like you to let her escape without repaying the money." He answered in a deep, stern tone. "God knows what she did with that much money." He added, feigning a look of mistrust."Don't be stupid, Viaan. She had used the money she told me about. I have visited the kid myself." Leena went in a flow, then widened her eyes. Viaan's eyes grew bigger, too. A look of shock marred his face. Even though he knew about it, hearing her say that brought back the memories of when she had got really sick just because of stepping out in the bad weather."So, he was the important friend you visited and got sick, Maa?"

    Kiara's POV:-I was in my office, working on my laptop, when my phone went off. Thinking it to be Viaan's as he said almost an hour back that he will call me as soon as he comes out of the house, I picked up the phone hurriedly; worried to know what happened there.However, to my dismay, it was not Viaan but Aunty. Receiving the call, I pressed the phone against my ear with shivering hands."Hello," "Hello, Kia, where are you?" She questioned straight and in a serious tone."In my office, Aunty. Why?" I asked, barely keeping my voice trembling. My heart thumped fast for an unpredictable reason, and I can feel my palm sweating already. "Tell me one thing, Kiara, are you leaving your place or shifting somewhere?" She asked, ignoring my question.I recalled what we had decided to tell her. Even though it was not a complete lie, I hate lying to her about the major part. With a pang of guilt twisting my heart, I replied. "Yes, Aunty, the landlord said he has to sell the apartment, so I'm

    "Viaan…" I almost cried upon receiving his call. My voice didn't actually come out loud, and it sounded like a mere whisper."Go home early today and pack your bags. I'll take you home tonight itself." He ordered, probably not hearing my voice.Tears sprung out of my eyes and I had to keep a palm over my mouth not to cry audibly. I don't know why I was so emotional all of a sudden. Even though the plan was made two days ago and Viaan, too, informed me before going to the villa, the call from Aunty and hearing her getting worried for me made me feel like a cheater."Kiara, what happened, baby? Why aren't you speaking?" Viaan asked, confused by my silence till now. I removed my palm from my mouth and sucked in a deep breath, sniffing deeply. “Viaan, I can’t –”Cutting my words, he questioned. “Kia, are you crying?” Voice filled with panic as he queried.It brought more tears to my eyes. “Viaan, I can’t do this.” I bit my lips, trying not to cry before telling him the reason at least."I

    "Kiara, Sir has called you immediately for an urgent meeting." He said, panting slightly."Meeting? What meeting and why are you panting like you came all the way running here?" I frowned for two things. First, I didn't know Hunter was coming today, second, he never called such urgent meetings."Because I came running all over here." He exhaled audibly. "Now come fast. Sir seems in a bad mood today and he'll get more pissed off if we delay." Confusion plus fear scattered all over his face as he asked me to join him.'What could be the matter?' my mind chipped in.Nodding my head skeptically, I got up from my chair. "You walk ahead. I'm coming after shutting it down." Pointing at my laptop, I told him.He nodded silently and left the cabin. I pressed the phone against my ear, guessing Viaan must still be online, as soon as Robin Sir was out of the room. "Hello?" "What happened, Kiara? All good in your office?" His voice was laced with worry."I don't know, Viaan, my boss had called us

    Writer's POV:-Kiara and Robin had their mouths hung open in shock and sheer bewilderment. Hunter had never used such a tone while giving them any task till date. The two of them looked at each other and then at their boss again."Don't look at me like I asked you two for an impossible task." Hunter grumbled, looking at their faces.They blinked, coming out of their shocked situation."Sir, if we are not going to conduct a third trial, high chances are that it might have some flaw… because the ingredients we are using are first in the market. No company has used these compounds. Thus, we can't say what impact it will have over the mass." Robin said calmly, trying one last time to give some sensible advice to his boss."And if the final product caused any allergy to the people, we might face a backlash in the initial stage itself. This will directly affect the growth of our company." Kiara supported Robin's objection. Desperate to make Hunter look at the other side of the coin, they b

    "February 20th," whispered Viaan, scratching his chin. Thinking something deeply, he looked back at Neil. "Did our sources get to know why the organizers postponed the event?" He asked Neil. Last month, when they got to know that the organizers have postponed the event for an unavoidable reason, they all were confused as it was the first time the organization has done something like this. However, since the PR team of the organization refused to disclose the reason due to confidentiality issues, all the companies were waiting patiently for the new dates."No, sir. They all have sealed their lips on the matter, and don't even mention this inside their premises, too." Neil shook his head negatively, sighing in defeat.Viaan nodded thoughtfully, then asked him to get back to work. "Alright, get back to your work and keep me updated on the announcement. Also, this Saturday we will visit the site again; ask the team to be ready." He said, forwarding the file to his assistant. "And ask the

    Adams Villa:-Viaan pulled the brakes just a few meters away from the villa. He turned the engine off and inhaled a deep breath before turning his head to the left.Kiara, sitting in the passenger's seat, felt his gaze and looked at him.Viaan held her hand in his before he spoke."I know this is hurting you, but it's killing me too, Kiara." She heard him initiate a conversation. "I too have this pathetic feeling of being a liar. And in no way do I want this, but I can't help right now." He said, sighing in helplessness.Kiara pressed her lips into a sad line, suppressing her emotions. She kept her free hand on their entwined hands and replied slowly. "I understand, Viaan, and I'm sorry for being the reason for all this." Her grip tightened as she apologized again. Viaan saw her eyes glistening again and clicked his tongue."I told you not to repeat it, Kiara. It was my fault that I blamed you initially, but now, as I thought, you and I both were victims of the situation. But, yes, th

    Viaan's POV:-I saw my mother's eyes going wide and even Kiara gave me a squint eye, hiding her expression from my mother. 'Okay, why do I feel I'm going to get an earful from her soon?' I blinked, licking my lips and then I heard my mother's voice, drawing my attention."What?" she questioned loudly. "Are you even hearing yourself, Viaan? Why would she leave the city?" She scolded me while asking.As I already knew about her conversation with Kiara, I can assume where this anguish originated. She has complete faith in Kiara and she knows my girl would not lie to her.Smiling internally at their bond, I cleared my throat to answer her question."Because she didn't want to pay back the money she took from you. And the proof is she was vacating her place, without telling anyone. And guess what, I just caught her in time as when I reached there she was just about –""Who said she didn't tell anyone a thing? I knew about her moving out of that rented place." My mother interrupted strongl

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

    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?
