Finally there was some peace in Pari and Ian's life after all the chaotic events. There was nothing but love and laughter in their lives. Though the couple had their busy schedules almost every single day, they never missed their regular visits to Anna's place and U&I. Even the kids were always eager to meet Pari and Ian because of all the fun and entertainment that followed their visits. Pari was eagerly preparing all the gifts she had got for the kids along with the cookies she had baked for the kids. She had even ordered Ian to help her with the wrapping papers. Ian couldn't help but agree with his bossy fiancee. Once everything was packed they started their journey towards U&I eagerly waiting to meet their bundles of happiness. As soon as the car engine stopped and the front door opened, kids ran towards the couple circling them completely. Chuckling at their eagerness, Pari and Ian walked inside to the foyer where all the kids settled next to them. The kids continued to talk a
Ian and the staff supervisor, Peter walked inside the room. By the look on their faces, Pari knew that they had overheard the conversation. So she didn't bother explaining the situation and went ahead to tend to Niyara. The silence in the room was soon broken by Ian's words. "The very first condition in your employment contract was that you'll treat the kids with love and care. But here you are, abusing a child even after knowing her condition. Do you really think that your actions will go unnoticed? Do you even have an idea how bad your punishment could be? " Ian's words were laced with anger. "Sir.. I didn't… " Ian cut her even before she could come up with any excuses. "Peter, I want this lady out of this building as soon as possible and please file a detailed complaint on the issue along with the evidence. Make sure to follow up the case till justice is served" Peter instantly accepted all the orders and Pari shared the video evidence she had collected. The accused lady, Cynthi
A week had already passed after the incident at U&I and the changes instructed by Ian were implemented soon. Pari was back to being her busy bee self working on Ian's schedule and meetings. It was a usual Wednesday morning when she received a sudden call on her intercom. She had just been to Ian's cabin an hour ago to deliver his coffee and now he was asking her to come back. Nevertheless she walked in with a notepad in hand, in case she had to jot down anything important. After a soft knock she walked in and found her boss busy staring at his laptop. "You called me? " She asked him after settling on the chair opposite to his. Ian had strictly ordered her to take her seat whenever she walked into his cabin. He didn't want her to keep standing for long hours whenever she was with him, especially in his cabin. He had air quoted it as his boyfriend duties and Pari couldn't really argue about it."Yes I did and I'd like to clear my schedule for this noon" He replied casually. "You coul
Unlike any usual day, Ian decided to drive on his own today and Pari happily accepted the shotgun seat. After some time, Pari noticed that they weren't going to Anna's place, so she looked at Ian with confusion. "I see a bit of confusion in that beautiful face, " Ian said while driving. "You said we're going to meet mom" "Yes," He replied. "And this isn't the way to her place" "That's because we will be meeting her at U&I" "Oh.. " She replied with a nod. Since there was still time to reach their destination, Pari decided to play some music. She picked up her playlist filled with old classic Bollywood songs that she missed a lot after coming to London. Though Ian hardly understood a word or two, he continued to enjoy the soulful music throughout the journey. Once they reached U&I, he opened the door for her like a gentleman and both of them walked hand in hand. Ian took her to Anna's tiny yet aesthetically decorated office where Anna was busy going through some paperwork. "I h
"When I heard about the incident and how you solved everything, I knew you love these kids very much. So I don't really have any issues in having you as a board member dear" One of the directors, Mrs. Stella Rosario happily welcomed Pari. "It's good to see young blood taking part in such a good cause. Welcome aboard dear" Mr. Valentino Dawson seemed excited to work with her. All other members looked happy to have Pari on the board and didn't really oppose the idea. Hearing those encouraging words slowly calmed Pari's nerves. When Anna finally asked Pari to express her thoughts, Ian gave her an assuring hand squeeze and an encouraging smile. With a new found confidence, Pari stood up to speak her heart. "Thank you for accepting me as a part of this prestigious and precious organisation. I'll still be the youngest one here and I'd love to learn new things with your support and guidance. But I'll try my level best to fulfil my duties and help U&I to grow as a beautiful home to every k
Next morning Pari was back to her duty and ready with her coffee when Ian walked into his cabin. After going through the schedule and confirming the changes Pari went back to her cabin. The day was going normally for both of them as they were highly occupied with their work. Finally it was lunch break when Pari walked into Ian's cabin with their lunch boxes. But before they could peacefully enjoy their lunch, Pari's phone started buzzing with an incoming call from Sonu. But as soon as she received the call, she was on a conference call with her friends and heavy silence was highly unsettling. "You guys want to talk or..? " She knew she was taking a risk by taking initiative. "Oh sorry, I thought I dialled my best friend's number who almost ditched her friends for about a month but looks like I dialled the wrong number." Sonu mocked Pari. "Maybe you just dialled Mr. Evans's assistant's number, Sonu. She must be busy" Avery continued the mockery. "Guys cut her some slack and let he
Weekend had finally arrived and Pari was equally excited and anxious about the whole getaway plans. When she was packing on Friday night, her thoughts wandered all around the place. Now that she thought about what her friends teased her about being clingy to Ian, she realised that they weren't entirely lying. Her life practically moved in and around Ian every single day. Especially after the engagement was publicly announced, Ian never bothered worrying about being affectionate in public, if anything he was more than happy to be a PDA lover. On weekdays they obviously had to stay together for work and on weekends, he always had something planned. So it was as if her life was unimaginable without him. But this weekend was going to be different, she won't be seeing her lover for the next two days. Though she had strictly asked him to stay home on Friday night, he had walked up to her door at night, saying that he wanted to enjoy the last few hours before separation. She had mocked him
A fresh morning rolled in and the cottage was soon bursting with activities. After freshening up taking turns in the two common bathrooms, girls decided to prepare some quick breakfast with the groceries they had brought. Since they were going to trek, they didn't want heavy tummies, but an empty stomach was also not a good way to start a day. After everyone munched up their breakfast, they got ready with the necessary things for the trek. As soon as they were out of the cottage, the guide Brian welcomed them with a warm smile. Then he proceeded to go with the details of the trek. Since it was still early, they had an advantage of clearing halfway without being tortured by the harsh sun. Soon they started trekking through the stone paths of the hill. They were given a proper map of the hill in case they were confused at any point of time. Even though the region was not too densely covered with trees, the risk was still inevitable. So preventive measures were taken before they started
