"You're waiting for the car?", I asked as I reached the gate. She was waiting there.

"No. I'm coming with you. Hire a cab", she said. I got a bit confused.

"Why are you looking at me like this? Go and hire a cab fast. I'll melt in this scorching sun", she covered her face with the stole.

"Okay", I immediately crossed the road to hire a cab.

"Congratulations! You deserved it", Mr. Ali grabbed my shoulder. "I wanted to promote you a long ago. But told me to leave it on Mr. Sahani"

Our eyes went to Sahani. He smiled at me.

"So that the decision didn't look biased. See, now everyone is happy for you", he beamed.

I rolled my eyes around. The entire staff was present there while clapping and smiling at me. I looked at Zoya. She was holding my arm, just for the formality. But her smile wasn't there to show off. I knew it well. Not even the blush which I witnessed this morning. I felt butterflies in my stomach when I recal

    AbrarIt took me quite a long time to complete all the work for that day. I left the office at 9 and came to the exit when I found Zoya standing near a black car, leaning against it. She was on her phone."Hey, you're still here?", I exclaimed. It was surprising because Zoya never waited for me, nor I did. We finished our work and went back home at different times.She looked up at me and passed a smile. "I just came out and thought to wait for you", she scanned my face well. "Tired?""Too much", I chuckled at her.She laughed with me but suddenly her reactions started to change and she touched the temple of her forehead when her eyes were shutting down."Zoya", I immediately gripped her arms when I saw her unstable condition. Her head fell on my chest abruptly. "Are you okay?", I wrapped my hands around her and panicked."Yeah", she mumbled. "My head is— just spinning"She could manage to say. I held her tightly in my ar

    "Zoya, just wait for a minute. I—", I strived to say."Abrar, will talk later", Nikhat said."Sure", I cut the call and rushed to Zoya."Which one?"She scowled at me."It's done. You were too late. I did it", she shrugged off."Sorry. Now, is it comfortable", I asked as she turned around."Yeah", she smiled."How's your health now? You were too tired yesterday. I thought you would stay at home today", I told her."Well, now I have important things to do in the office and I can't sit at home. Let's go", she grabbed her purse and walked out of the room and I followed her.*"Good morning, Sir", I abruptly stood up from the chair and greeted Mr. Ali when he came to my cabin. "You could have called me. I would come to your cabin""Good morning. And it's alright. How's everything going on?", he asked, sitting on the opposite side and rolling his eyes around."Better than I expected, Si

    AbrarI gaped at her in confusion. However, she looked really stressed out. She clutched her fists tightly and kept standing there. I didn't know what she tried to mean with those words. I walked towards her and held her shoulders, making her sit on the chair, and I leaned against the table, standing in front of her. She was looking down. Her body was still shaking."You want some water?", I asked but she rejected it by shaking her head."You want", I said and took a water bottle, opened it, and held it in front of her mouth. She glanced at me for once but didn't refuse to take it.She took a few sips and placed it on the table, letting out a big sigh."Better?", I asked and she nodded. Then I brought another chair beside her.She was looking everywhere but at me, locking her fingers together and twisting them in the disturbance. I remained silent for a while, only noticing her reactions. We were just a few inches apart. She wa

    "Cappuccino", she said, looking up at me. "What happened?""Your first time?", I said confusingly.She took a few seconds to answer."Yeah", she folded her lips. "I never liked outings""Not even with Anas? I mean you guys never went on a date?", I exclaimed, still trying to believe it."No", she said, calling a waiter by implying with her hand."Really? How's that possible?", I asked."Anything is possible if you want to. By the way, will you have cappuccino?", she asked."No, black coffee", I told her."Boring like you", she frowned and looked at the waiter."One cappuccino and one black coffee"The waiter left and she turned towards me. I was still surprised."Well, don't get surprised like that, Mr. Zafar. People can be exceptional. I'm definitely exceptional", she said, taking her phone."Okay. But I'm not surprised at the exceptional you. But I was wondering how lucky I am to be your fir

    ZoyaAbrar rushed to me and grabbed my hand. It was burning severely but that burn seemed to be nothing in front of the burn causing inside me. I stared at him when he panicked, scanning the burn."How did this happen?", he exclaimed and before he looked up at me, I hid the smile from my face. It was burning and I wanted to hiss but I felt so happy that moment when he left everything behind and rushed to me with just a single scream from me."I was trying to put the pot down", I hissed."You didn't need to. You could have waited. Come here", he dragged me to the water tap and turned it on, keeping my hand under it."Keep it like this. I'm bringing the ointment", he panicked as I shook my head.Abrar left the kitchen when I heard Nikhat speaking."What happened? Is she okay?", she asked but I didn't hear Abrar replying to her.He ignored everything for me.I looked at my hand under the water. Never in my lif

    #His_Billionaire_Wife#Chapter_54AbrarI chuckled but immediately paused, finding her gawking at me. I bit my lower lip."I was kidding", I explained but she avoided eye contact and looked at the ceiling. My eyes wandered on her hand again. The bracelet was glistening on her wrist just like a pearl. My lips widened into a smile. I noticed her wearing it from the day I gave it to her. She didn't even remove it for a second."Zoya", I called her. Her eyes were frozen on the ceiling."Don't be so serious. I don't understand when you get sarcastic and when you get serious", I blurted out as she looked at me.Our eyes met. She did not react instead she kept staring at me."You shouldn't remind me that I'm temporary to you", she said. "I know that"Her whispers gave chills down to my spine. I still couldn't understand why she got so disturbed whenever I joked about it. And I wasn't willing to make her temporary in my life. But

    Abrar"What happened?", Zoya asked me, coming into the room while wiping her hair."Huh! Nothing. Nothing much", I looked up while tapping my phone to check if anything was wrong. I was noticing that my phone had been switching off recently. I found it off every morning. As I knew it was old enough, I could say I had to repair it."Why are you gazing at the phone like this?", Zoya asked again, walking towards me."I think my phone has some problem", I mumbled, turning it."What?", she frowned, coming close to me."Yeah. I find it switched off every morning. Maybe, it switches off every night", I told her."The battery might get dead", she rolled her eyes and then walked past me."Every day? That's really strange", I told her.I kept scanning it for a while."Now will you stop operating your phone right now? You can do it later. We need to leave for the office", she said."Yeah, I—""Ouch!", she

    Abrar"So, you had a cut before?", the doctor asked Zoya, scanning her hand. She was too serious while talking.It had been a few minutes since we arrived in the clinic though Zoya wasn't willing to come here."Yes", Zoya mumbled in a low tone. The doctor was taking too much time to examine her wounds which was making me restless. Her cut didn't even heal properly and she ended up burning the same hand. I knew it could be serious someday."Then it burnt", the doctor asked. I told her the same things after coming here still she was inquiring the same things repeatedly."Yeah", Zoya said.The doctor took her kit out and started applying a spray."Ahh", Zoya hissed, leaning back to me. I hardly saw her hissing but the burn must have increased after that spray."Allah! No! I don't wanna apply it. It burns like hell!", she almost yelped, dragging herself back to me."Your wounds need to get treated, Zoya. Please give me your

    Nikhat"He's the photocopy of Abrar", Mrs. Ali says, holding the newborn. After eight months of our marriage, Zoya delivered a cute baby boy. He's a premature baby, indeed but still out of all danger by the grace of God. "Just pray that he gets the same tactics as me. I can't handle two short-tempered creatures", Abrar laughs."Wait! You just wait. Let me get a bit healthier", Zoya shoots him a glare. "You can scream only. What else can you do?" Abrar rolls his eyes."You—"And they continue.I take the newborn in my arms, giggling at him lovingly."First and foremost rule, Mrs. Wife", Kaif whispers near me. "No future planning after this"He's always so scared!"I know right? Stop worrying!" I scowl at him. So many things changed over time but he didn't. At first, he was scared to love someone and get married. Now, he's scared of having a baby. I don't mind it though. It's just a matter of time. I'm happy the way I am.I was promoted to the company with my salary getting doubled.

    Nikhat"Are you hungry already?" Kaif asks from behind.I drift my eyes outside and look at him from near the window with a smile. He is munching a subway burger with a tight-lipped smile on his face. "Wouldn't it be better if you had gotten something for me instead of just asking?" I shrug, jumping behind and sitting at the edge of the window."Hey, careful", his eyes widen. "You're gonna fall""I'm used to it", I giggle. "This is not the first time I'm sitting at your window"He chuckles, walking toward me. "Yeah, but definitely you never hoped onto it wearing a lehenga", he scoffs as I stare down at him. He stops just an inch away from me and spirals his left arm around my waist. I shudder with the abrupt contact and lack of distance between us. My heart starts thudding against my chest and my body vibrates when he tightens his grip around me. It's been a year since we were engaged but never before has he touched me this way. I didn't want him to. But if he wanted, I wouldn't ev

    Author's POVRuzina goes completely shocked but it doesn't take her much time to understand what is exactly happening. "How wouldn't I come, Mrs Ruzina?" Irtaza chuckles. "After all, the alliance maker should be there?" Zoya presses her lips tightly so she doesn't burst into laughter by watching Ruzina's stunned face. On the other hand, Nikhat gets confused with Irtaza's words."Alliance maker?" She exclaims."We can discuss that later", Zoya jumps into the conversation. "Let the guests in, Nikhat""I'm sorry", she smiles and makes a way for them to get in. As others follow Ridwan and Nikhat inside, Ruzina keeps standing there and gazing at Irtaza."You look stunned, Mrs Ruzina", Zoya rolls her eyes. "Ah, well, let me introduce myself. Zoya Zafar, Irtaza's business partner and your would-be son-in-law's friend"Ruzina curls up her face and doesn't even smile at any of them. Zoya crosses her arms and takes a step toward her, raising her eyebrows."What did you think Mrs Ruzina? Onl

    NikhatI have been waiting for the evening the entire day and finally, the moment arrived. Kaif has indeed replied to me with a message which said, "it's fine"The text didn't sound genuine to me at all. Especially when he sent only two words in the reply to my entire paragraph. Couldn't he realise the urgency in that message? I don't know if I'm overthinking. He's not bound to send me a paragraph just because I did. "Nikhat, shall we leave?" Mia asks. "No. I have some work left", I lie. I don't have any pending work. Besides, Irtaza already told us that he doesn't need the whole team today. I should have left. "I thought you were done", Mia roll her eyes."No. I—" I stammer. "I'm yet to complete a few""Okay, then. Goodnight", grabbing her stuff, Mia walks towards the exit. I get back to my desk and look for some work to do. "Nikhat!" Irtaza's voice hits my ear as I look up, finding him walking out of his cabin which is straight in front of me. "You didn't leave yet"I don't kn

    NikhatI don't know how to react to this crap. I can only see how hard Irtaza is trying to pass a smile. I know that wasn't expected. And why did he even need to come here just because Ruzina called him? He could have turned her down. He has plenty of work to do. I force a smile and walk toward them. "That was not necessary. Was it?" I mumble, glaring at Ruzina. How can she still smile like that?"I just thought to—" Ruzina strives to say as I walk up to her."Thought to what?" "This is so embarrassing. Why did you do this? He's my boss", I exclaim, whispering near her face.I can't say if she deliberately did that. Why would she anyway?"But he said—" she mutters. "That's called courtesy which he said. And we'll not do that. That's our courtesy", I shoot her a glare. Ruzina frowns at me as if she still can't digest that I'm arguing with her. As I should. I should have done that a long time ago. And now she literally crossed the limits by embarrassing me. What will Irtaza think a

    "Okay. What about that?" I ask."Irtaza came there to meet them. They spend an afternoon together", he says and his reactions harden."Okay, so?" I ask even though I have already sensed what it meant. This is something different from any boss and employee relationship. I'm not judging though and I'm not even sure if there's another reason. I bet Kaif also doesn't know the exact reason. He's just assuming. "So? Zoya, can't you understand what that means", he scoffs at me. "That means Nikhat is having a lot of guests. What else?" I roll my eyes. "Stop it, yaar. You—``''why can't you see what I'm seeing?" He yells out of nowhere. "Because I'm not as intelligent as you. Explain to me", I scowl at him. "You can't get, Zoya? Really? Don't you know what it means? In this society, when a guy meets a girl's parents? That guy who likes her. They literally had a meeting, a conversation. Don't you know what it seriously means?" He speaks out of frustration."So!" I mumble.."So!""Yeah. So,

    KaifI walk faster. As fast as I could. Through the dark alley. My head literally stops working when I put the pieces of the puzzle of that incident. I don't know why I'm getting so pissed and irritated. He just came to meet.He just came to meet. I kept ranting this to myself until I reached the resort. I feel my breathing getting ten times faster than before. I can hear my groans as I grab the grills of the gate and fum heavily. My body has heated up and I'm unable to calm down anyway. Everything was going so fine. So damn fine. Until she talked about Irtaza being there. I lost it and I didn't want to show how pissed I was, nor could I behave normally. I'm already hiding enough and this will go beyond. Anticipation builds me rapidly, no matter how much I try to console myself. "Sir, I need to close the gate", the security guard says. I glare at him for no reason and storm into the resort, walking as fast as I can.I reach my room and twist the knob. Opening it a bit, I slam the

    Nikhat"Nikhat!" He whispers my name but I don't look up. I feel him holding my hand tightly and I hold the edge of the bench. Then I sense him decreasing the gap between us. He uncovers my face, lifting my hair from my cheek and tucking them behind my ear. I can feel him staring at me which makes me blush harder. "Look at me", he leans down to my ear and whispers. I squirm with his warm breath fanning my skin. As I don't respond to his words, he lifts his hand to me and slides two of his fingers across my jaw, slowly nudging my face towards him. I finally look up at him. Our eyes meet. He smiles, peering at me as if he's scanning each detail of my face. I had never been so comfortable with anyone's gaze the way I'm with him. It seems to be pure and peaceful. Most importantly, I love it. He locks his hand with mine and gets closer to my face. Enough closer which forces me to drop my gaze in shyness. "Why do you always steal your gaze from me?" He whispers. "I want you to look

    NikhatIt's been a while since I've sat here in the dark alley with Kaif. It's so strange that I have never explored this alley in the last six months but today I did. With him. I'm also a bit concerned about Ruzina and Abbu being in the lodge. They might be wondering where I have been. I'm sure Ruzina is gonna make a fuss about it to abbu as she has always been doing about me. I remember those days when I couldn't be a single minute late to return from school and Ruzina used to complain to abbu, saying I had been disappearing for hours. I can't forget those dreadful days and somewhere I used to believe Ruzina is acting like all the typical mothers as she had made me believe all mothers are like that. I used to think she was strict and wanted the best for me. As I grew up, I realised it wasn't a normal thing. But then, it was too late. Abbu wouldn't believe me if I said anything against her. He used to think I had gone reckless. I never complained for years. Then why at that moment
