IVANA'S POV:
Every one stood up to greet him and I could see, everyone was shocked as well. Maybe due to my presence. I was feeling awkward due to everyone's gaze but I had to maintain my calmness.
"Everyone, she is my personal advisor and will also assist me so I expect you all to behave accordingly." His cold voice echoed along around. Then he started walking towards the private elevator at the corner while I followed him.
"Twenty fifth floor." He ordered looking at his phone. I just pressed the button as per his instructions. With every second, my heart was thumping and I was becoming nervous.
He started walking towards the cabin and I followed him. Cabin was huge and I must say it is beautiful and professional. Awards and certificates were beautifully arranged and sofa along with coffee table at one corner. Piles of files arranged in the shelves and a huge photo frame of the MERCHANTS hanging on the wall.
There were two tables facing each other
IVANA'S POV:Yeah, presentation is all set, projector is ready, samples are ready. Okay, every thing I need for my presentation is ready now and every one must be coming to the meeting room soon. I just hope my hardwork won't be wasted.Yesterday was not bad as I expected it to be. I mean I was not sure about working with deadly demon but he behaved professionally which helped me adopt here. I know he's deliberately trying to make it hard for me but to be very honest, I love doing work under pressure. Cause that way, I forget all my stress, pain and lonliness.I came an hour earlier today and he was busy in his gym. So I couldn't say to him. That is why I informed to Rosh about it and also about his breakfast and left for office.JUSTIN'S POV:She was in washroom when I went to my gym. I didn't find her in room once I returned. I thought she must be in kitchen then so I moved to dinner table after getting ready. But Rosh brought breakfast for me an
IVANA'S POV:"Hello Mrs. Merchant, won't you go for lunch?" Mr. Edward said entering the cabin. "Mr. Edward, please... Call me Ivana. I've been telling you this since months." I smiled back at him."Even I told you to call me Edward, didn't I?" He questioned me back.Yeah, he's right. I told him long back to call me with my name. But he also asked to do the same with me. But that was so awkward for me. So I didn't stop calling him Mr. Edward, neither did he stopped calling me Mrs. Merchant. You all know I don't want to be called by that name right?I walked with him to cafeteria and had my lunch with him. I must say, he's very good and kind. He has helped me a lot to adopt in this environment. I respect him a lot and in fact, I find him as my brother. If I ever had brother, I'd wish to have one like him.I took packed lunchbox for him. Yeah right, for the deadly demon. "For dear hubby huh?" Ahh he started teasing me again. I rolled my eyes and he l
MRS. ELIZABETH POV:I was looking at the invitation card from one of our business partner when my sweet husband came inside our room."What are you looking at honey?" My husband said kissing my cheeks."Mr. Bryan has sent invitation card to us for his twenty fifth wedding anniversary party." I replied smiling at him."Okay, we shall go then. After all he is our important partner."I nodded at him and smiled."What are you thinking about, what is making you smile honey?" Aww... My husband really knows me well."I'm thinking about Ivana. How things have changed after she came in our life.""You're absolutely right honey. She has entered in our life like a fairy. She has changed all our life ever since she came in our life.""Exactly, the way she makes every one smile, the way she loves to spend time with us. And most importantly, the way she takes care of our Justin. I feel he's changing. Do you feel the same hubby?" I ask
IVANA'S POV:I was getting ready in the room. Mom had chosen a beautiful dress for me. I put on the dress after shower, did a little make up and put on my silver silhouette.I had thought of gifting something beautiful to Mr. and Mrs. Bryan for their anniversary. They are already wealthy enough. So I thought a lot about it and finally reached into a conclusion. Accordingly, I ordered the gift.I got a phone call that the gift I ordered has arrived. So I walked down and received the order. It was beautifully and gently packed.I placed the gift on the table in our room and went to kitchen to inform to Rosh and Mr. Daniel that we'll be late today.JUSTIN'S POV:I had to attend a meeting before the party. So I finished it as soon as possible and left for the mansion. I entered my room and saw a gift wrapped on the table. I took my tux that my mom had chosen and went to washroom for shower.I came out of washroom, all set or the party. I
MRS. ELIZABETH POV:"JUSTIN MERCHANT AND IVANA WILLIAMS MERCHANT: MOST ROMANTIC COUPLE.""THE DUO'S PERFECT CHEMISTRY: JUSTIN MERCHANT AND IVANA WILLIAMS TOGETHER."Their photographs from yesterday's party is going viral everywhere. I was smiling looking at the photo where Justin was holding her by her waist and when they were dancing."Hmmm.... Someone is happy for getting the plan successful huh?" My husband teased me."Of course. I'll keep on planning these kinds of things if I get chance by anyway.""Oh I know my wife. Hahahaha... You know what honey, I just wish Justin gets the love he deserves and also will love Ivana with all his heart.""I wish the same and I believe that day will come for sure. Let's see what plan has god made for our children. Whatever is his plans, I just wish they'll bring them close and fill their life with love.""Amen."JUSTIN'S POV:I was in my gym when my phone rang. It was
JUSTIN'S POV:I walked back to my room to take shower after my workout. I got ready in my tuxedo, made my hair and put on my watch and perfume and I was all set to go to office.I was waiting for breakfast in dinner table when she came out of kitchen with a tray in her hand. She placed a plate of grilled cheese sandwich and a mug of coffee for me but there was no plate for her like other days. Strange...She was continuously rubbing her fingers with her thumbs. She was nervous. I was waiting for her to speak all the time when I was having my lunch but she didn't speak anything. I couldn't wait anymore so I asked, "Is there anything you want to say?""Actually sir, can I... can I come to office a little late? Actually... I... I have something to do." She stammered.She's never asked for a single day of leave till day, not even breaks except for lunch break. And today, she's asking for... Wait, she was crying yesterday. Okay, seems something importan
IVANA'S POV:I woke up in the morning when sunrays hit my face peeping through the window. Oh shit! It's seven already. It's weekend so I have day off at work but I have plan to go out with Abigail today. She must be on her way.Oh no no... I'm really late today. How did I sleep this late? I took out my outfit from wardrobe and rushed to washroom for a very quick shower. I put on a simple tight blue jeans, white shirt and denim jacket with a little makeup leaving my hair free and I was all set.Oh shit! It's half past seven already. And this deadly demon will wake up at anytime. I better go and prepare breakfast first. I ran downstairs to kitchen and prepared breakfast and coffee for three of us. I had asked Abigail to have breakfast with us.I heard honk of car after a while and it was Abigail."Hey sister in law..." she ran towards me and hugged me."Someone looks very excited." I said hugging her back."Yes, very excited. After all
ABIGAIL'S POV:I heard sister in law calling me so I turned around. But she pushed me and I fell so hard on the floor. I was confused by the incident which happened right now. I was blank. But I heard her scream. When I looked at that way, sister in law was lying down on the ground on pool of blood. The a car drove away in full speed, the same one which had probably hit her.My feet went numb and tears started rolling down from my eyes. I wanted to walk. But my legs weren't working. I saw her looking at me. Reality stroke my mind. She... she saved me. And now, she's lying in pool of blood.I ran to her with all the force in me. I was scared, I was nervous. I was blank. "Sister in law... Wake up... Wake up... Sister in law.... sob sob..." I was shaking her but she was not responding. Her eyes were closed. A cold wind of fear blew in my heart, fear of losing her. No no... I don't even want to imagine that.I was helpless. I screamed with all the energ
IVANA'S POV:"Hey where's our birthday boy?" I asked as I entered Gold mansion with my dear husband, who was carrying gifts for our birthday boy."Well He's getting ready and his tantrums! God! I don't know how will he be in future when he's already so naughty and dramatic now." Miya sighed, shaking her head in helplessness."He'll be as charming as his daddy, isn't it Mat?" said Mark, coming down with our little birthday boy on his arms."Daddy, I'm a big boy now. Say my full name. Momma has kept such a sweet name for me, Mateo." said our little cutie pie Mateo in his cute baby voice grinning innocently who's celebrating his third birthday today."Happy birthday Mr. Mateo Gold." My hubby forwarded his hand towards him like a gentleman."Thanks, Mr. Machant" (as in Merchant) he said trying to shake his hand with him but all his attempts went in vain as his baby hand couldn't hold such big hand. Everyone laughed at his little attempt wh
IVANA'S POV:"Aww! Don't cry baby. You're my little angel, aren't you? Please baby, be a good girl now." I was trying to calm my little princess as she was crying continuously since quite a time."Why is my little princess crying? Is she missing Dada?" It was my dear husband who entered the room with that million dollar smile."Yes. Your little princess is crying since so long and she's in no mood to obey her mamma today." I said making a pout. He laughed at my helplessness and took her in his arms."Why is my little princess crying? Is she missing her Dada? Hmm." He kissed on her forehead saying so. And then he started talking to her. "My little baby is looking so beautiful in this pink frock. She's looking daddy's princess." As soon as he said this, she laughed a little making us laugh too."Looks like princess is happy to hear compliment from her Dada. Her mamma would be happy too if her Dada would take a look on her." I said faking my ang
IVANA'S POV:I was sleeping on his arms, feeling his warmth and love. I was sleeping peacefully but then I felt a sharp pain arising on my lower abdomen. I thought the babies kicked again and that's what causing the pain but then the pain kept on increasing.I felt wet on my gown as well. I tried to tolerate that pain but then it was getting too much. I freed myself from his arms and sat on the bed after a lot of struggle. It was getting hard for me to bear the pain.I couldn't bear it any more so I shook his hands with mine with my face squeezing out of pain and screams escalating from my mouth."What happened baby? Are you okay? Is there any pain?" He asked me as soon as he woke up and found me in pain."I guess my water broke." I couldn't say after this cause I was feeling as if I'll forget go breathe if I try to speak anything now."Baby, don't worry. Everything will be fine, everything will be fine." He was trying to console me but I co
IVANA'S POV:I couldn't be more happy than to know that one of my best friend is also going to have child soon. I just wish Miya could also have a child soon. I just wish to see our children growing up together and turn out to be best friends like us.Children, oh yes. What will we have? Daughters or sons? What would he want to have? Will he be happy with whatever we'll have or does he have any expectations? What if he gets disappointed and his love decreases for me?I felt so worried thinking about it. There's no much time left for my delivery. I can get labour pain at anytime soon and thinking about this only is making my heart ache."What is my baby thinking?" I felt his hands snaking around me, his chin resting on my shoulder while he spoke."Nothing." I spoke looking away cause I was in dilemma. Should I ask him or not? What if his words break my heart or I'd say something that would hurt him? I inhaled a long breath as I was tense
IVANA'S POV:I'm living a very happy life with the people I love the most. I'm carrying our babies inside me. Yes, babies. We got to know that we're having twins. But we haven't checked their gender yet cause we want to keep it a surprise.But my babies are giving me a real tough time. They made me feel nausea for whole three months at the beginning of my pregnancy. I would throw up everything that I would eat, except for cake and Ice cream. That too butterscotch. I guess my babies have similar taste with their father.Now I'm finally in my eighth month of pregnancy and my mood, God! sometimes I feel like eating and sleeping all day. Where as sometimes I don't get sleep at all. And that's when he, my dear hubby sings for me and cuddles me tight until I drift to sleep.Sometimes I feel like eating pizza but the moment he brings it in front of me, I want to eat burger. But my hubby never got irritated or showed anger on me. He always smiled and loved
IVANA'S POV:I can't thank my almighty enough for giving me the best family and such a loving and caring husband. I never thought that I'll ever be loved, though I craved for love all my life. But never in my life had I thought to be so lucky to get all these people in my life. My husband who loves me like I'm his everything, my in laws who love me like their own daughter and Abi, who's like my own sister to me. My friends who are more like my family."Hey wifey. You're looking beautiful and I can't take my eyes off from you." My dear husband said hugging me from behind with his chin resting on my shoulder."My husband's looking extremely handsome as well. I think I'll have to put my eye over you now. What if someone lures my husband?" I said looking at him through the mirror on my dressing table."Hmmm. Well you won't have to do all that hardwork baby. Cause your husband has no time to look over other woman. He has got his eyes upon his dear wife."
JUSTIN'S POV:I felt disturbed when I felt sunrays hitting on my face. I didn't want to open my eyes but those sunrays didn't spare my lovely sleep. I moved my hand around my side cause I couldn't feel her in my arms. But wait, why is this side of bed so cold? As if it's empty since long time?I opened my eyes after blinking for some times only to find myself alone on the bed."Wifey...." I called out for her but I got no response from her. I walked towards washroom to check upon her but she wasn't in washroom as well. Where might she go? I was getting worried for her. I dressed up on whatever I saw on the closet as soon as I could.I reached out to door knob to find a note: "I AM WAITING FOR YOU ON THE SAME PLACE WHERE YOU TOOK ME YESTERDAY, COME SOON."What is she up to? I was nearly out of breath for not finding her beside me. I ran out towards the beach as soon as I could, just to find her looking at my way, smiling and waiting for me.I
(MATURE CONTENT AHEAD!!)IVANA'S POV:He was singing for me and all I could do was to stare at him and thank my almighty, for gifting me this man in my life. I couldn't move my eyes away from him and in fact every words that he sang made my heart fill up with emotions.He's the best thing that happened to me in my life. If God would give me a chance, I would ask for the permission to meet him even earlier in my life. He embraced me, making me feel loved and secured. He wiped out tears from my cheeks and that's when I realized that I was crying.He captured my lips with his, showing me the love he has for me in his heart, pouring all his heart. I kissed him back, with the same passion and love.I just love this man with all my heart and soul."I love you." I said when both our foreheads were attached after breaking our kiss."I love you too baby." he too replied me, pulling me even tighter in his embrace."Let's go wifey, it's getting c
IVANA'S POV:We've been travelling since six hours and the jet is about to get landed as per the announcement. I'm super excited to see where we're going for our honeymoon. I've tried all my ways to ask him; by kissing him, by making cute faces but he still resisted. God! I'm so excited to know the place."HUBBY! WE ARE IN MALDIVES!!!!!!!" I screamed as soon as we landed. Wow! We... are... in... MALDIVES! I'm so super excited to see and explore this place."Hubby, how long are we going to stay here?" I just hope he says at least a week or even more for better. I just want to live here and collect memories for my lifetime."A week." he smiled looking at me and I left a breath with a huge smile. Yessss! A week. I'll collect enough memories within these time."Where are we going today? Where will we go first?" I was so excited to explore this place. I just want to run and see each and every corner of this place."Relax honey, we're going go hot
