*Maheshwari Pov*

I glanced to my left the moment stepping into the cabin and sighed in relief for the curtains otherwise I would definitely go mad with his looks he recently acquired from the past two days. I sat in my chair and leaned back feeling mentally tired for sure.

Why all this is happening in the first place? How can he even love me and that too from the beginning? How can he not love Di at all?

I thought he was attracted to her when he called her by the name she said close people do and then he crazily accepted marriage proposal and wedding within two weeks.

Wait! I thought sitting straight in my chair and rewinded the questions. He wanted to marry Di and would have if not for our intervention.

Does he think I am so stupid? I thought, fuming but sat quietly. Maybe… maybe like James said that time, the company he would have acquired was important.

He must have realized if he marries Di then he would get the company and decided to marry her. What a business minded, he is?

    *James Pov*“It is better if you stay back for today.” I said, looking at her tired face while she is trying to get ready before the mirror.“And who will do the work? I need to finish the last touches before meeting the models and get the fabric stitched.” She mumbled in a weak tone before letting out a cough.“They will not get hurt if you stay back for a day.” I said wearing my coat.“So what? I should stay here all alone not doing anything? Thank you! But I would prefer to be with people when I feel ill.” She said, standing up, but held the chair making me reach her in the next second.“You will be sitting here while I go and get your food. Then you will stay back without going anywhere.” I ordered making her sit on the bed before leaving the house ignoring her protest.“She is not feeling well? I will be with her.” Maha said, standing up, but I shook my head.“It’s okay! There is no need for that and I am sure if you are with her then she would make you to let her go to work.” I

    *Swathi Pov*“What is wrong with you? Are you having tooth ache?” I asked him the moment entering the house to which he glared at me.“No!” he replied and continued to walk towards the room.“Then why were you gritting your teeth?” I asked, frowning to which he just took his clothes and moved towards the washroom.“Nope! I am not going to let you ignore me when yesterday you were breathing on my neck.” I said following him and he groaned.“I am already tired and need to freshen up. So, don’t irritate me.” He warned.“Why don’t you use your power of winning yesterday’s bet and ask me to back off?” I asked, wishing he did that by which I need not have to worry thinking what he will ask of me.“So, this is your plan?” he asked, smirking and suddenly held my wrist.“What are you doing?” I asked, but he dragged me into the washroom.“Irritate me all you want to.” He replied and closed the door before moving towards the shower.“Don’t stop on my account and I will just have my shower to sav

    *James Pov*“What?” I asked, frowning at her while she continued to stare at me blankly leaning on the door frame.“Enjoyed outing with your friends?” she asked and glanced over my shoulder, which I followed to see the both already left.“Actually, it was completely tiring.” I replied and she shook her head before walking into the house.“I am not a mind reader by the way.” I commented when she sat on the bed while I followed her into the room.“And I am an outcast.” Her comment made me frown and sat before her.“Well, why is that?” I asked and she fumed.“I mean, you three just went for a vacation and no one asked me. Not even Maha and it’s not like I would have accepted to go with Nakul being a part of it. But still what would both of you lose in asking me.” She asked and I can see the anger on her face.“Because this was not a vacation. Maha and I left the city and that friend of mine followed us.” I explained to which she let go of a little anger to leave space for confusion.“Exp

    *Maheshwari Pov*“Hello?” I asked, lifting the phone ignoring the fact that he is calling.“Hello? Is that the way you greet your boss?” he asked and I smiled glancing at the curtains.“Sorry, Mr. Singh! Is there anything that needs to be done, Mr. Singh?” I asked and immediately covered my mouth to stop myself from laughing hearing his intake of breath which I am sure to control his frustration.“Yes! There is something you need to do, Mrs. Singh.” He replied and I leaned back smiling.“And that is?” I asked, moving to and fro in my chair.“Well, saying that you love me could be a start.” His reply made me lose my balance in my chair and I nearly fell back but stopped myself.“Is everything okay?” he asked and I calmed my fast beat before clearing my throat.“Yeah! I have some work to do.” I replied, trying to stop my hands from shivering.“Some work which your boss doesn’t know?” he asked and I closed my eyes.“Bye!” I whispered and hung up while still trying to stop my heart from b

    *Swathi Pov*“Naku… Nakul Singh!” Maha stuttered, but I held her hand before following the man that was already walking in another way.“He will take us.” I said, holding her hand tightly and she nodded, but I can see the tears rolling down on her cheeks.I tried to control my shaking, but in turn just increased the pressure of my hold which she hadn’t even observed.“He is in the operating theatre. They are saying the effect was too much to his left side of the body. He even stopped breathing before bringing him here.” A man already there said when we reached near him.Maha and I sat down hearing the words he just uttered. I covered my face feeling my whole body shaking while Maha gave into the sobs.“Is it how you convey the details?” I heard a harsh voice and froze realizing whom it belongs to.“James?” I whispered uncovering my face to see him glaring at the person who conveyed what happened.“James!” I repeated and jumped up from the chair before moving near to him.“You are fin

    *James Pov*I groaned hearing my phone ringing and opened my eyes to see the room is dark. Did I sleep for too long? I thought moving a little and sat up.Looking at the person sitting on the chair beside the chair made me fist my hand. I can’t believe I got fooled in this level.Actually, it was my mistake to change the plans. Now, there will be no changes at all. Within four months, it will be a goodbye.She slowly blinked her eyes when my phone started ringing again. I looked away, taking the mobile and lifted it with my good hand.“What is it?” I asked when one of the team member’s voice reached me.“Mr. Singh is here.” He replied and I sighed in relief.“He is awake?” I asked and can see a slight moment beside me but I ignored it completely.“The senior Mr. Singh is here.” His reply make me sit straight in silence.“Who informed him?” I asked him in a hard tone.“We didn’t do it, Sir. He has been in Mr. Singh’s room for the past five minutes.” He replied and I got down from the b

    *Nakul Pov*“Hey!” I said when she slowly woke up from her sleep, which I know must be too uncomfortable.“Good morning! Do you need anything?” she asked, sitting properly yawning before smiling at me.“Yeah! You going home would be a start.” I replied, to which she sighed shaking her head.“Not again! I am not going anywhere.” Saying that she walked into the washroom with her brush while I closed my eyes.I wish I was not in that accident. Of course, everyone wishes the same, but I am not able to sleep unless some drugs are in my body. It feels like I am still in the car and too many questions in my head.“How is the patient?” I heard a voice and glanced at the door to see James just stepping in.“Don’t ask! Anyway, how are you able to come and go as you wish when you are also in this accident and even got hurt?” I asked to which he laughed.“Seriously? I was not the one who was operated. Mine is minor.” He replied and glanced at Maheshwari when she walked out of the washroom.She ga

    *Swathi Pov*“Water!” I heard the voice and immediately moved from my bed to fill the glass fuming inside with frustration.“Here!” I said, walking near the person who had just his hand in a cast, but have perfect legs, which he can’t use or just decided not to use.“Go ahead!” he said not even glancing at me, but typing something on his mobile with his good hand while keeping the device on his lap.I would love to go ahead and throw this on that phone which he can use with the hand, but not to hold the glass and drink.What am I doing by being at his beck and call during these few days while he is finding new ways to irritate me? I thought, frowning, but then shook my head.If I had not known the reason behind his behavior I would have dumped this water on his face but I know the reason. I never in my wildest imagination thought that one lie would be the result of someone to get hurt.Well, I earned this game of his and the hostility, but I would not become some meek person for a mis

    *Swathi Pov*“What happened to him?” hearing the question I opened my eyes and removed my goggles to see her looking to her right.I followed the direction before realizing what she is looking at and smirked before covering my eyes again with goggles and leaned back enjoying the sun.“He is angry.” I replied as a matter of fast.“Yeah? I thought he is looking like he found a treasure. Did you both fought already? Today is just the second day of your honeymoon.” She pointed out.“Maybe he is mad because she is spending time with us instead of him.” Another voice pointed out from my left.“He only pushed three of us to go for a sun bath.” Tina pointed out from my right.“Yeah! And we even took her shopping yesterday evening like he asked.” Grandma said from my left.“That is actually one of the problems.” I finally said and immediately felt their gazes on me, after which I removed the goggles and stared at them.“He is partly angry because I bought only bikini’s and shorts. As I am only

    *James Pov*“So, Nakul and Maha have not divorced?” this question actually surprised me because that is just not the matter I explained to her.“No! He hasn’t even come to the court.” I replied and she nodded with a blank expression.I moved my hand to push her hair back and immediately felt her jaw tightened when I touched her cheek. So, she is actually angry, but hiding it or trying to control it.“I can understand about that because he is the one who applied for an annulment and Maha asked Dad to do as per Nakul’s wish.” She mumbled to herself and then narrowed her eyes.“Dad knows about all this!” she stated and I nodded to which she shook her head.“What I don’t understand is, how are we not divorced when I was the one who filed for this and I also asked my lawyer to go ahead with it?” she asked looking at me and suddenly my worry about her reaction turned into anger.“Yeah! I saw how much you wanted to finish off this marriage.” I said, snorting and moved away to sit at the othe

    *Maheshwari Pov*I groaned only to groan more feeling the pain in my head. I don’t know whether I can call it just pain or that something is hitting my head.Closing my eyes tightly I moved my hands to hold my head, but realized my hands were kind of not moving. I frowned and opened my eyes only to scream which immediately affected my pain.There is some person’s head before my eyes and then I remembered about getting ready for the date. But we didn’t walk into the restaurant right and we went to a club.Oh god! Did we return to the restaurant? I thought with a panic and tried to move away and with each effort the pain is increasing.And then suddenly I was released, making my mind go blank, but I can hear the voices. Then something was put in my hand when I was still closing my eyes and my hand was moved to reach my mouth.I was about to be drugged! I realized when a small tablet kind reached my lips because of which I immediately pushed away the hand from mine before throwing the ta

    *Maheshwari Pov*“Mom! Dad!” Di said, looking at both of them and I too stared at them feeling worried.“What did we do?” Mom asked us and I wanted to tell her that it is not what they had done but how they are behaving.“We both are divorcees here and you are acting as if we are going to a date for the first time in our lives.” Di stated.“It is mine!” I whispered which she tactfully ignored, but stiffened hearing that.“With Dad giving away rules and regulations while you are giving away your worry. We both will be fine.” Saying that she held my hand and dragged me out of the house.“You never went on a date?” she asked the moment she started driving.“No!” I replied and waited for her to laugh.“I don’t believe you! I saw how crazy Nakul was for you and you guys must have gone somewhere for sure.” She said and I turned to stare at her.“With James coming with us every time?” I asked and she stiffened hearing his name but cleared her throat before giving a nod of understanding.“So,

    *Swathi Pov*“What are you thinking?” I gave her a side glance, but continued to drive along with trying to control my thoughts.“About Job!” she replied in a whisper and I frowned.“Why? It is not like your first day.” I pointed out and turned the car reaching near the company.“It feels like that only. I don’t know how to behave and what should I do regarding the middle door. And also what should I… should I use to address him.” She continued and I didn’t have any words to say hearing all that.“Maha!” I mumbled, reaching the company and she got out, but I too not wishing for her to go inside without I say something to assure her.“Look, you were not wrong in any of this and you need to keep some control or even change yourself. Just do what you wish to and keep yourself happy.” I said and she gave a sad smile.“I wish to go near him and not leave his hand at all, even though if he pushes me. That is not a bright thing to do, right?” she asked and I shook my head.“Maybe not that!”

    *Swathi Pov*“What is all this?” I heard the question, but didn’t look back to see him and just continued to check whether everything is packed.“Like you asked, I am moving out. And like I said, I am doing it sooner.” I just replied and nodded to myself when I saw everything is properly packed even in a little time.“I didn’t mean it like that and why did you even think I am asking you to leave? I just asked you to pack and I will be doing the same. My job is over and we need not stay here anymore.” He explained and I sighed, turning around to stare at his confused face.“Why were we married?” I asked him and he frowned hearing my question.“To stop you from ruining my friend.” He replied when I didn’t utter another word.“Right! Why were we staying under a roof all these months?” I asked and this time he fisted his hands.“Because we wished to annul this marriage and we have to stay for six months to do it.” He replied but stepped into the room.“And I tried to sneak around along wi

    *James Pov*“I didn’t do anything wrong. He killed her and I will kill his wife.” I groaned pressing my forehead with the heel of my hand.“That’s it!” I said, moving away from the glass and walked to enter the room where the bastard is being investigated.It took one week for me to get a chance of being in the investigation because of the hard officer in this city, but now even though the chance will be taken away with my interruption, I can’t stand back and listen to this crap.“He didn’t kill her! She killed two people. Actually was about to kill ten children, but he saved them.” I stated and nodded at the officer.“He is a drug addict and will keep on saying the words like a broken record. We have the complete acceptance of his crime and will send the tape of it by tomorrow. I don’t want anyone else to waste their time on this man. We had enough of this.” I added and glanced back to see the main officer walking into the room.“What is he still doing here? Yesterday I said he needs

    *Maheshwari Pov*I took a sip from the coffee and closed my eyes, feeling an inch of relief which I know will wash away after finishing this and facing the future.Why? I thought, frowning still not understanding his behavior. I would have thought he would question me or even show anger, maybe even hurt yesterday.But all he did was tucking me in his arms and caressed my scalp while not giving me a chance to say anything. I still remember how many times I opened my mouth to talk to him.However, each single time he could just hug me more tightly and make a sound to maintain silence. Why? I thought again and turned around opening my eyes before pouring the liquid in the basin.“Coffee was not good?” I gasped and turned around to see him walking into the kitchen with a blank face which he held on to from yesterday.“Do you want some?” I asked, suddenly feeling awkward and that was more painful than the confusion I had in my head.“Sure!” saying that he looked around but not at me before

    *James Pov*“Now, you are going to die.” Hearing those words from the device made my blood run cold along with everyone in the room.“But let’s wait for some time.” These added words are like some sort of balm to the pain and I glanced at the man who is locating the place with more hurry than before.“Don’t fall asleep on me like that again.” We heard the annoyed voice with felt so sick and I took a step back staring at Nakul who is looking pale now.Swathi moved away from him and walked to the door where I am standing typing on her phone, but I immediately took it away from her to which she glanced up.“Don’t call your parents and get them worried. We will find her and it is better to inform them after doing that.” I said staring at her tear filled eyes.“You sure you want to find her?” she asked, taking her phone back and stared out.“What are you saying?” I asked her frowning and she immediately stared at me with complete anger.“What am I saying is how you acted like a jerk with
