Arzal stepped inside his mansion and was about to stride towards his room when he saw Rebecca coming towards him with a smile on her face. Rebecca hugged him, making his heart ache. How could this motherly warmth betray him? He hugged her back and closed his eyes. "So how was my son's day today?" Rebecca asked after breaking their hug. Arzal forced a smile and nodded. "It was good," "Ok go and freshen up. I'll get something for you to eat," Arzal nodded again and was about to walk away when he heard Rebecca further uttering. "By the way, Arzal, when did Seraphina leave yesterday? I hadn't seen her leaving," Arzal turned to face her after hearing her. "I mean, she didn't even meet me before leaving and besides, she was about to stay for the night, so I thought to ask you about this," She uttered, perfectly playing the role of a worried mother which even he couldn't identify. "She left because she wanted to," He curtly said, completely remembering their plan. Rebecc
Next morning, Seraphina woke up from her dreamless sleep. She had barely slept last night because her whole mind was all over that thing that he was there, all alone under one roof with Rebecca. Even after getting up, her anxiety and those terribly wrong intuitions that something bad was going to happen didn't stop bothering her, instead had started engulfing her more badly. So the first thing she did in the morning was to pray for the wellbeing of her loved ones and then decided to call Arzal but he didn't pick it up which made her more restless. Seraphina tried a couple more times but failed in all her attempts. So with a throbbing heart, she went to do her morning routine. "He's still not picking up his phone," Seraphina uttered, checking her phone, making Nicklaus, Nevada and Nathan sigh. "Hey! stop worrying, Seph. He will be alright," Nevada tried to assure her but Seraphina shook her head. "No, I just want to talk to him to make sure he's safe. That's it. Please do somethi
Seraphina wasn't able to control that havoc of fear emerging inside her heart. That something bad was about to happen and he hadn't even picked up his call, so losing to the edges of her negative vibes, she decided to go to his home to check on him by herself. She didn't inform anyone about this because she knew they wouldn't let her to go there, so she secretly escaped from Nicklaus's house but before she could reach to his house, Nathan, Nicklaus and Nevada, they all started calling her and she understood, they got to know about her disappearance, so she texted Nathan that she was going to Arzal's house to meet him. They all tried to stop her through messages and calls but Seraphina was determined to see Arzal and she did it. Seraphina hurriedly strode inside his mansion and saw Rebecca talking to someone on the phone. She couldn't control her anger after watching Rebecca because she knew about her evil motives for them. "Where's Arzal?" She snapped, daringly, gaining Rebecca's
Arzia accepted Michael Grayson's love proposal and later they both got married but Rebecca's hatred towards Arzia increased as Arzia got such a beautiful, luxurious and prosperous marriage life to live and a loving and wealthy husband. After Arzia gave birth to Arzal, her life turned more beautiful. Michael was a loving and caring husband and father. They all used to live happily but Rebecca's hatred had peeked to its edges because she had never gotten a perfect life partner or love like her cousin. And now she didn't want to be like her cousin, she wanted to be in her place and for that purpose, she started visiting Grayson's mansion more and had grown a stronger relation with Arzia and Michael but her intentions for Michael were immoral. She tried to create misunderstandings between them by getting closer to Michael and succeeded in it. Arzia and Michael's relationship started falling apart. One day, Arzal had left for his school when Rebecca came to meet Arzia and that was whe
Seraphina slowly stepped inside his room and saw him standing at his window. His back was on her. Seraphina sighed and walked towards him. She stood beside him but didn't say anything but she knew he was aware of her presence. They both stared outside at the bright sky of the day which was looking so calm and beautiful. Seraphina slowly extended her palm and touched his hand. She intertwined their fingers but without looking at him and in return felt him tightening his hold on her. None of them dare to break that silence until Seraphina tossed her head only to find him already gazing at her. Her chest squeezed in pain by watching those tears in his eyes and some had even rolled down from his face. He was looking shattered, totally vulnerable. Nobody could guess, it was that same exact man who didn't even know how to identify his own emotions, let alone expressing it. Seraphina reduced the distance between them and then placed her palm over his cheek. She wiped his tears and then
"But how will you do it? You know nothing about cooking, Seph?" Seraphina sighed, hearing Evelyn. She was talking to Evelyn and Nevada on a conference call. It had been a couple of days since Rebecca's truth came out but Seraphina had noticed that Arzal was still really very affected by it. He was trying to show himself fine before her but she knew him very well. Seraphina was living with Arzal in his private penthouse because she didn't want to leave him alone and Nathan was the one, who suggested she stay by his side because he knew Arzal needed Seraphina the most at that time. "I'll call aunt Clara and will take her help in cooking his favourite grilled chicken and cheese macaroni," Seraphina had decided to make food for him, so that she could lighten up his mood more. "But still, you've never even boiled water, Seraphina. How will you do it?""Shut up, Eve. I know, our Seraphina can, so don't demotivate her and let's cheer her up. I'm sure she will rock it and we all will help
"I want you to be happy, Arzal," Arzal's smile dropped from his face at her words. Seraphina sighed and then cupped his face. "I know you're trying to show yourself fine in front of me but deep down, I know you're still really very hurt. You're not happy, Arzal," Seraphina uttered. "But I want you to be happy. I want my cold, arrogant and rude Arzal back who never used to mask his emotions whether if they were good or bad," Arzal silently heard her each and every word. "I've fallen in love with that Arzal who used to scare me and yet at the same time, make me feel secure. I want my that Arzal back whose emotions were his strength but not his weakness," Her voice was delicate yet firm. "I want my that Arzal back who used to get jealous of my Tinnie," A smile broke out on his face. "Can I get my that Arzal back please, Mr Grayson?" She showed him her pleading doe eyes. He kissed her nose pin and then pressed his forehead against her. "I still wonder, what good have I done to g
"Nervous?" "Very much," Seraphina replied to her brother, who was making her ponytail. It was the day of her final exam's results. It had been a couple of months since that Rebecca incident had happened. Everything and everyone had fallen back into the line, as the time passed. "Don't be because I know my Sephi will get very good grades," Nathan uttered, getting done finishing her ponytail. Seraphina sighed and got up from her dressing table. She turned around and hugged him. "But what if I don't get good marks?" Nathan smiled, hearing her. He took out her face from his chest and palmed it. "You've done your best, right? You've worked hard day and night for your exams, haven't you?" He asked. Seraphina nodded because she had genuinely tried to do her best in her exams. "Then nothing else matters because your outcome depends upon the work you've done to get the outcome," He said, smiling. Hearing him, automatically a smile formed on her face. "You're the best brother i
Sezal…" That tiny figure turned around and Arzal's eyes widened by watching those big tears in her doe grey eyes. He dashed towards her and kneeled down before her. "Hey! my love. What happened? Why are you crying?" Arzal asked, worriedly while cupping her small face. He noticed her entire mouth was covered with chocolate. Arzal immediately cleaned it gently with his coat's sleeves and then wiped her eyes. "What happened, Sezal? Why are …" he stopped when she wrapped her tiny arms around his neck. "M.. mamma scolded me," she softly whimpered. Arzal became stunned. He hugged her back and started caressing her head "What? She scolded you but why?" "Because she lied to me about her test grades," Arzal turned his head and saw Seraphina coming inside. By her face, he got it that she was angry. He got up while carrying the whimpering Sezal in his arms. "Her teacher informed me today that she has gotten very low grades in her test and yesterday when I had asked her about her grades
"I've checked the pros and cons of this project and I can say that the cons are more than the pros," Arzal nodded, hearing his company's project head. There was an important meeting going on between the heads of the company."But I have also evaluated this project and in my evaluation, the cons are more but the pros have greater opportunities for our company," Arzal trailed his eyes towards his front and saw that azure eyes owner, who was sitting in front of him."And I think, we should at least do a trial test with it to know our dealers and customer's response towards it," Arzal heard her every word keenly."I agree with Mrs Grayson, Mr Grayson," one of the members of the team agreed with Seraphina."Mrs Grayson has a valid point. We shouldn't just drop these great opportunities just because there's some uncertainties associated with it,"Seraphina flashed a professional smile to that member and then looked at Arzal. "But the risk is too much in this project," another member sai
"Nervous, Grayson?" Arzal sighed and turned around to face Nicklaus. "You couldn't even imagine," Nicklaus laughed at his answer. "Chill, Arzal. You both have a 3 months old daughter now and you're still nervous?""Because I'm marrying the mother of my daughter for the first time, Williams,"Arzal frowned, earning a chuckle from Nicklaus. " Fine… fine… understandable but now at least remove this frown from your face. It's your wedding day, after all," Arzal rolled his eyes at his remark and turned around to face the mirror. He gazed into his grey orbs and uttered those words. "My eyes are desperately longing to see my azure eyes enchantress," Slowly unlatching her eyes, her azure orbs straight fell on her reflection in the mirror. Her body was wrapped in that beautifully fluffy white gown. Her hair was clutched in a high bun. The long train of her gown was attached to it. Her face was glowing like a pearl. "Seraphina, you're looking ethereal," Evelyn uttered, enchanted by her
Sezal Arzia Grayson. Arzal had chosen the name for his daughter and Seraphina had chosen the middle name. Arzal was so happy when she told him that if their baby would be a girl, she wanted to give her his mother's name. So she came up with the middle name, Arzia for their daughter. Seraphina got discharged from the hospital. They couple headed back to his home with their newborn. Everyone was waiting for their arrival in Arzal's house. Seraphina stepped inside the mansion, carrying her little life in her arms but her eyes widened when she saw the scenario in front of her. The entire mansion was decorated with flowers, balloons, toys, teddies. "A very beautiful welcome to our beautiful and brave mamma, Seph and her most beautiful daughter, Sezal," A wide smile formed on her face by watching Nevada, Nathan, Evelyn, Nicklaus and even the staff members. She tossed her head and looked at Arzal, who was standing beside her. He smiled at her and pecked her forehead. "A very warm, beau
Staring at her 8 month's baby bump, a soft smile crept on Seraphina's face. She slowly averted her eyes upward and looked at him through the mirror who was massaging and oiling her hairs. Her smile widened when his grey eyes met with her and he beamed too. "So what is my Sera thinking that made her so happy?" He asked, massaging her head. Seraphina sighed in relief. Her head was aching a little while ago, so he decided to give her head a massage. His touch was so soft and calming that her mood immediately lightened up. "Nothing. I'm just memorising these beautiful moments in my heart," She answered, smiling. His beam enlarged at her words. He pecked her temple. "And we'll continue to collect these beautiful moments throughout our life, together," He uttered, happily but then noticed her smile faded a little at his words. "What happened?" He asked, concerned. Now just a mere frown on her face terrified him, as her delivery was coming nearer. Seraphina shook her head and then sigh
"Why don't you make love to me anymore?" Arzal was aghast after hearing those words from her mouth. He looked at her, bewildered. His reaction hurted Seraphina more, who had now turned more sensitive regarding almost everything. Tears fell from her eyes as a sob broke out from her mouth, taking him back to his senses. "Hey! Hey! Please, calm down. Don't cry, Sera," He tried to calm her down but she shook her head vigorously and uttered. "You don't find me beautiful anymore. I've turned ugly," Arzal was getting shock after shock at her every word. He cupped her face more firmly and stood up on his knees before her. "Who said this to you, Sera? You're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in my life and you're turning more beautiful, day by day, my princess," His words didn't buy her, who again shrugged her head. "No, you're lying. I'm not beautiful anymore, that's why you don't love me like before," Her emotions were taking out the best of her. "I love you, Seraphina. I love
Seraphina turned into a statue, after hearing those words from his mouth. She looked at him, bewildered. Arzal smiled and extended that tiny box of a cookie to her more and uttered. "Please accept my cookie or else my heart will get broken, Sera," Seraphina giggled and then kneeled before him. She took that cookie from him. "Let me taste it first then I'll decide, Mr Grayson," She replied and everyone chuckled whereas Arzal pucked out his lips like a kid. Seraphina bit the cookie and then shoved the rest of the half in his mouth. "Hmm.. It's very yummy, so I guess I can accept your proposal, Mr Grayson," A huge smile formed on his face, hearing her. He pulled her into a warm hug, making her smile. "But you've to promise me, you'll continue to make these sweet choco cookies for me and our baby for the rest of our lives," She spoke, raising her head a bit from his chest. Arzal chuckled at her words and then pecked her forehead. "I promise. Forever and always," He said. Her hea
Seraphina's heart had come to her mouth when she saw his smile fall and his face turned emotionless. "Okay," He hung up the call and looked at her. "What happened?" She asked, desperate. Her eyes had almost watered by watching his blank face. "Arzal, tell me. What the doctor said?" Arzal sighed, heavily, making her more afraid. "She said… " He paused. Seraphina's heart had almost stopped until. "The result is positive. We're having our baby," He said with happiness gleaming in his eyes but her eyes widened. She looked at him, startled. Seraphina started hitting her chest while tearing up. "I thought… I hate you.. I hate you," Her emotions got the best of her. Arzal smiled and pulled her into a warm and gentle hug. "I'm sorry. I was just teasing you," He said, kissing her hair. "Yeah and your teasing had almost given me a heart attack," He pulled back and kissed her teary eyes and then her forehead and then her nose pin. "Your heart is mine and I won't let anything happen t
"I'll share the results of her blood reports in the evening. Till then, take care of her," The doctor uttered and then left from there. Now everyone was standing on their places like statues, staring at each other like they had come to a different planet. "Oh my… Seraphina is pregnant. Our Seraphina," Nevada yelled out of her lungs and dashed inside the room, followed by Evelyn. Nicklaus sighed and looked at Nathan, who was glaring at Arzal. Nicklaus gulped. "Okay, I guess.. You're about to get beaten up, Arzal. All the best, Nathan. Break his jaw but first let him meet her," Nicklaus chuckled and then went inside the room. Nathan sighed, heavily and again looked at Arzal, who had turned into an ice and wasn't even blinking. "If Seraphina wouldn't have been in love with you so much then I would've killed you right now, Arzal," The possessive brother in Nathan came out, who was too stunned to react to that news. Nathan also stepped inside the room and saw Seraphina crying badly,
