*Ali Pov*I wanted to talk to her and tell her everything that happened because of which I was unable to reach her. But I should have known my Father would do something like this.“I need to talk to her.” I said, looking at him, but he shook his head.“It is not a good omen to look at the bride before the wedding. And tomorrow morning you can talk to her as much as you want to.” He said shaking his head.“Why did you bring all this wedding business this sudden? We just returned today morning.” I asked, rubbing my neck feeling irritated and anxious to run away to some place.“It is needed to present Harsha to our people. They will not take his position seriously if you don’t get married to her as per our customs. This will benefit your son.” He replied and I don’t have any words after that.After missing so much of his life, I know I will do anything for my son. This is the time to make up for everything.But what about Jhanvi? Maybe, she can still be my friend and the marriage can be
*Nicole Pov*“Are you sure, you will be fine?” I asked her frowning.“Yes! This guy is like behind you for a whole week. And you too seem to be like interested.” She replied making me glare.“I am not asking you whether I am doing a right thing or not going on this date. But I just wanted to know whether you will be fine to stay here alone.” I pointed out to which she just chuckled.“Nic! I am not a baby and I just had some heartache. And tomorrow I have an interview for which I need to prepare. So, just get out of the house and let me concentrate.” She mumbled pushing me towards the door.I wish I didn’t accept this guy’s invitation, but he just kept on asking and he seems like a cool one too. I sighed, feeling bad for her and wish I can do something.“Fine! After you get the job, you need to come out for a party. And maybe he has a friend whom I can set for you.” I said shrugging.“Hello! I didn’t force you to say for him. And by the way, I can’t really date right now. I was ready t
*Ali Pov*“Going somewhere?” I heard the voice and I broke off from my thoughts to see Father standing before us.Then I realized that the jet didn’t take off making me frown and I glanced at Harsha to see him frowning at both of us.“Yes! I told you, right?” I asked Father hoping he didn’t get my plan.“You are not going anywhere near that woman.” He warned me and started instructing the pilot who is standing near to Father.How did he get to know about our plan? I thought thinking about the people who knew and started calculating the person that could be behind this.“That woman will never come to this place and you know well about it. So, both of you get down from this jet.” He continued and suddenly Harsha stood up from his seat.“You all lied to me. You all lied that she will be here.” Harsha started shouting at both my Father and me.“This is not the way for a prince to act.” My father scolded him.“I want my Mom.” He screamed more.“I told you to stay away, but you never listen
*Nicole Pov*“What is it?” I asked Nev when she continued to look at the entrance.“Someone is coming to send us off.” She replied making me frown.“You mean Yash is coming?” I asked her finally feeling relax.I still can’t believe that she didn’t forgive Yash even though he tried so much to woo her and even remove her doubts. She is stubborn, but this went for too long. And now she just packed her things so fast to come with me.This is all Ali fault. He suddenly called me and said I need to leave today itself if my friend also has to come with me.“So, by day after tomorrow morning, you will reach this place?” she asked smiling at me.“Yeah! We will reach, but if your words mean you changed your mind, then maybe I can stay until you guys settled everything.” I offered, but she shook her head.“No! You like him, Nic. And it will be a good thing if you get this sorted out soon before some other issues some between you. Just work on this because I have a feeling that this is special an
*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
