*Ali Pov*What should I tell her? Should I tell her that it is my mistake to decide not to have any contact with her anymore after remembering Jhanvi and my son? Or should I tell her that my decision was right?How can I know whether my decision was right or wrong? It was a situation where I felt I deceived two very important people and I need to make it right, but I know I wouldn’t be able to do it if I had contact with Nicole even through phone.When will I get the answers to my questions and when will I be able to reply to her questions? All I know at present is I need to tell her as much as I can.“I am sorry.” Her words stopped my thought process while she gave a small smile.She is apologizing? For what? And she is smiling while here I was expecting her to be angry at me. I shook my head to clear the confusion and ask her about it directly.“Why?” I asked her frowning.“I reacted over the top this morning. I mean I had no right to react like that.” She explained.“No right?” th

*Nicole Pov*“Are you really sure?” I asked him I don’t know for maybe hundredth time, but he still responded with a smile and a word ‘yes’.“You really need not do this, Ali.” I added to which he held my hand with a frown.“What are you really worried about? I already told you that I took care of all my work and I will get a call the moment I need to be here. So, why are you worried that I am coming with you for your friend’s marriage?” he asked with a confused expression.“You don’t know my friend, Ali. She will do all these tests to see whether you deserve me or not. And I don’t know how is she in those tests at present. I don’t want any disturbances and I definitely don’t want to choose a side.” I replied rubbing my forehead.“Whose side will you choose?” he asked in a casual tone.“Hers!” I whispered and glanced at him to see him staring back at me.“She is my first priority, Ali. And I can confidently say that it’s the same for her. We both bonded when we didn’t have anyone and

*Ali Pov*I glanced around to see so many people moving around and giving me weird glances while Yash just talked about his business.“Where is she?” I heard a lady whom Yash introduced as Neville’s mother asked us.“She is freshening up. Did Nev talk to you?” Yash asked her and she nodded before glancing at me.“I am not in her team, but I will not keep quiet if I feel you are not good for Nicole.” With those words she walked off.“What team?” I asked Yash and he just sighed.“Seems like my fiance had too much quality time when you were freshening up. I am on her team by the way, but I don’t know what she planned.” He replied and before I could ask anything else, Nicole sat beside me hurriedly.“I tried to rush as much as I can. Did she attacked?” her question is directly for Yash who shook his head in negative but I chuckled hearing her words.“We are not at war.” I pointed out and felt relaxed having her beside me.“Ali! I really don’t want you to run away screaming that you don’t

*Nicole Pov*“What are you doing here?” I asked, reaching him and he finally stopped his conversation with Nev’s Grandfather before glancing at me.“Don’t say it! You both are talking about history again.” I mumbled and he just smiled at me while Grandfather laughed.“He has good knowledge about our history. You made a good choice.” Saying that he walked off while I snorted hearing his words.“You are my good choice because I was wishing to learn history?” I asked sarcastically and he just pulled me into his arms.“Don’t be jealous, Nicole. We will be leaving today night and I just wanted to let him know how much I admire that he taught me about the things which I can never learn reading any book.” He explained pressing his lips to my cheek.“And I think you don’t have any right to be jealous after all the time we are spending at night in secret.” He whispered the words making me jab his ribs.“If anyone knows about that then Yash and Nev will be in trouble.” I pointed out as a warnin

*Ali Pov*“What do you mean that project is canceled?” I asked my secretary frowning.We just returned yesterday and I started planning my trip to Harsha’s school, but my Father took another step to cause problems.“His highness was adamant about this and because this is of simple matter none of the council allowed any time to deal about that.” He explained and I know right then that he did this to want something from me.“It is of simple matter at present, but later it will be a huge problem. I can’t let him stop the plan for this water plant.” I mumbled to myself and stood up to go and deal with him.While walking towards his office, I started thinking how to make sure he doesn’t put any objection to this plan and just let it happen.“Father! I need you to not stop this water plant construction.” I stated the moment I was allowed in his office room.“Tell me why should I?” that’s all he asked and for the next two hours I explained the details of the plant with the help of the notes

*Nicole Pov*“He must be scared.” I scoffed at her words and continued to work without saying another word.“Fine! How dare he say those words and leave you? He doesn’t have any common sense. Happy now?” she added the last words laughing.“I don’t have any common sense. That’s why I called you.” I replied, moving my hand to cut her call.“Wait! I am really confused about your problem. Are you mad at him for those words or because he rushed away not giving you any time to react?” Nev asked leaving all the teasing from her tone.“I don’t know!” I mumbled and stopped working.“Well, ask him when he returns. Don’t stress yourself like this. But just decide whether you want those words to be true or just be simply some silly words.” After suggesting that she hung up and I just sighed.“I will definitely take his opinion in this matter, but for me if it is not you then it will be no one.” I can still remember each and every word he uttered that day and just left before I can understand the

*Nicole Pov*“What are you doing?” I asked him, but he just continued to throw my clothes around the room.“What are you doing?” he asked back finally clearing my packed bags.“I can’t stay here, Ali. I was really hesitant and now he doesn’t like you to date. You saw what happened at the airport.” I explained, picking up my clothes.“I saw that, but you need not leave. Maybe he just needs some time.” He pointed out and I ignored him.I don’t know how did I felt at the airport, but I know making Harsha accept me will be very difficult. How can I force him to accept me?“Harsha is my son, Nicole. But it doesn’t mean I will be with the only person he will accept. He can take his time, but I want you with me.” He continued and pulled me towards him holding my elbow.“What you are saying is correct, Ali. But with the experience I had, I can’t take such step.” I mumbled looking away.“You are not your step-father. I know you will care for Harsha.” He pointed out and this time I don’t have a

*Nicole Pov*“No!” I simply replied when he asked me again.“What do you mean no?” he asked frowning.“No means no, Ali.” I replied, closing my laptop while he continued to pace before me.“He is mailing you.” He pointed out.“Yes! And I am mailing him back. But I can’t come between you two, Ali. He is your son and you need to ask him all this stuff.” I explained.“I know he is my son, but he is not talking to me properly like he is talking to you. I need to know what went wrong to make it right. I was feeling dejected all these months thinking I will never be close to my son, but now I know there is a way and I can’t wait anymore.” He sat on the bed and covered his face like he lost everything.I walked towards him not knowing how to explain the situation, but then I know I have to try and make him understand.“I am an outside person, no matter how well he is talking to me. With a snap of fingers he can stop talking to me and no one will say anything about it. But if you try to under
