"Rachit's point of view,"
"Riya, what are you doing here?" It took aback me to find her at the hospital on such a late night."I'm here... ," I could tell by her trembling tongue that she had listened in on all of mine and the doctor's conversations."Have you heard of everything?" I inquired, frightened."Will you tell me what's wrong?" She inquired, her eyes questioning me."Please, Riya, keep this secret from anyone." Riya has heard what I've kept secret from everyone. What am I supposed to do now? Will I be honest with her?"I believe we should sit down and chat." She stated in a commanding tone. She finally agreed to speak with me. I'd wanted to talk to her privately for a long time, but she wasn't ready to listen. She gazed at me with calculating eyes as she entered the hospital's garden."Why are you staring at me in such a strange way?" I inquired cautiously."How can such an important truth be concealed?" Her incredulity remained in h"Riya's point of view,""Rachit, wallowing in self-pity, will not get you anywhere. Instead, talk to Shilpi about your shortcomings and resolve to rebuild your relationship." I couldn't see him cry in front of my eyes. I've always wanted him to be held accountable for his errors, but I never imagined Rachit's punishment would be so severe. Four years ago, my child died and I am completely heartbroken. Rachit had thought his child would be with me. I understand how it feels when someone's hope is suddenly dashed."I don't want to return to Shilpi.Riya,You are my first love and I want to spend the rest of my life with you." He said this while taking my hand in his."No, I cannot do so." I replied, loosening my grip on my hand."But why? Don't you want to spend the rest of your life with me? Were you not thinking of marrying me?At whatever cost, Riya, I want to make you mine." He forcefully grasped my hand once more."No, insisting on having everyth
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, when are you going to meet the land's caretaker?" My team manager approached me in my office and inquired."I'm not interested in meeting the caretaker; instead, I'd like to meet the landowner." I replied, my gaze concentrated on the document."However, his caretaker has stated that he will not provide any information regarding the land's owner.""You should delegate all of that to me and focus on the remaining tasks." I was still reading my document."But, Riya, how are you going to find out who owns that land?" His voice sounded uncertain."You will be my boss if I tell you everything." I slammed my file shut and placed it on the table, yelling angrily."Sorry, Riya, I was simply curious." He replied in a terrified tone."Never interrogate me again. I have not delegated this authority to anyone. Have you grasped what I'm saying?""Riya, I'm sorry.""Never make another mistake like this." I gave him one final warning and ordered him to leave my cabin. He
"Riya's point of view,""What happened to me?" I was astonished to find myself in a completely unfamiliar area as soon as I opened my eyes. My memory of last night's events is fuzzy, but I remember fainting before the door opened to reach the caretaker's instructions for the location.But whose room is this, anyhow, with such a comfortable bed? I sat up in bed, my body covered in a man's black shirt, and I did not know what had occurred to me the night before.What happened to my clothes? I was astonished to find the bandage wrapped around my feet as soon as I got out of bed and tried to keep my feet on the ground.What is going on with me? I spent the night in the home of an unknown man, and now, as the day is rising, I see myself dressed in someone else's clothes.What is going on with me is completely beyond me. It startled me to find the person standing in front of me as soon as the room door opened."What are you doing in this place?" I asked when I saw Harsh standing in front of
"Riya's point of view,""You let me go." I tried to break away from his grip with my arms, but he was not willing to let go."What exactly are you doing?" I inquired, surprised by his response."Rest here while you wait for your fever to subside." He was on the verge of putting me on the bed."I can't stay here since I have to go to work." I was still attempting to free myself from his clutches."Why are you so obstinate?" With his gaze concentrated on my face, he said."I'd like to go to work." In a severe tone, I said I don't want to spend much time with him like this. It would not be appropriate for me to stay here since if his wife finds out that he is here with me in this manner, they will fight for no reason. But my body is in excruciating pain."I told you before that you wouldn't go until you were entirely healed. Do you have any idea what I'm talking about?" How do I convince him that staying in this place with him isn't suitable for me?While attempting to sit on the bed, I a
"Riya's point of view,""Because I have difficulty in sleeping." In hushed tones, I replied."Why so?" He inquired, his brows furrowed. How can he ask me such questions?"Enough is enough. After all, who gave him the authority to interrogate me?" And why do I have to respond to each of his inquiries?"You have no control over what I do or don't do. Now get out of my way." I exclaimed angrily."If you do not respond to my query, I will not sell you the land."Oh god, what happened to Harsh, and why is he blackmailing me in the name of that land?"After all, what do you want to hear?" I find his threats irritating."Truth." His intense stare remained riveted on me."I take sleeping pills because your thoughts prevent me from sleeping well all night. This thought of you with your wife at night... keeps bothering me. I can't believe you forgot about me and married someone else. I'm envious of your wife. You just heard the whole truth, or you still need to know something else." I'd been try
"Riya's point of view,"It wasn't simply a kiss; it was a declaration of my love for Harsh. Our lips were moving faster, and my brain had entirely shut off. The more I felt for him, the more painful it was to lose him. I wanted to convey to him my anguish at being apart through this kiss.I did not know when the tears ran from my eyes as I kissed him. We stopped our kiss when we both ran out of oxygen. Harsh's eyes were filled with tears when I opened my eyes. I have only seen him cry once in my life, and it was when I was tried to leaving him alone to travel to another city.What might be the source of his tears today? He has forgotten about me and moved on with his life. He reached out to wipe the tears off my cheek. I felt a peculiar sense of relief as I felt the warmth of his palm. My hands extended in front of him as if to wipe the tears from his heavy eyelids."Sorry, Harsh. I didn't want to betray you. I tried everything I could to stop myself, but I'm not sure what happened to
"Riya's point of view,""Open your eyes, please. Harsh." I Couldn't decide what to do when I saw Harsh, who was covered in blood.What had I done? He had constantly asked me to stop, and I had ignored him. This would not have happened if I had listened to him. What if Harsh lost his life? It is not possible. At all costs, I will happen nothing to him. His heart is beating. But witnessing his blood all over the place tore at my mind.What should I do in such a situation? I couldn't see anyone who could assist me. Harsh was hit by a car that drove away without stopping.Harsh's wife and children will hear that I am to blame for what has happened to him. I only had one person in mind and that was Ankur."Please help, it is an emergency." As soon as he picked up the phone, I said,"Riya, what happened?" After hearing my disturbed voice, he inquired."Highway. Harsh. Accident. Outside City." Because of my sobs, I couldn't say over one sentence."Riya, stop crying and tell me exactly where y
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, did you make any arrangements for blood?" Ankur walked over and inquired as soon as I hung up the phone."Yes, he will be here shortly to donate blood.""Who? Who are you referring to?""Rachit. He has an AB-negative blood type." I exhaled deeply and said,"And what has he requested in return?" Ankur inquired, his voice trembling."He hasn't yet disclosed his terms.""How are you going to accomplish this without even listening to his demands?""So, what else could I possibly do? Nothing is more valuable to me than Harsh's life, and I will offer him anything for his blood.""Riya, I understand your predicament, but knowing that man, he will almost certainly demand something from you in exchange for the blood, which you cannot provide.""I understand, but if something happens to Harsh, I'll have a hard time surviving.Did you let his family know about it?"I inquired, my gaze fixed on him."No, not just now. I think we should wait until the doctor completes
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, why are you wasting so much time getting ready today? Poor Harsh, have been waiting for you for so long." Sheetal walked up to me and said,"Because my wedding is today, I had to get ready for it, including applying my makeup." I responded as I adjusted my earrings. "Riya, I think you look stunning today. May God keep the evil eye away from you." Sheetal slipped a small dot of kajal behind my ear and murmured, picking up the kajal from the dressing table. "Now that Harsh has already committed theft, no one even dares to steal Riya from him. Am I correct, Riya?" As he walked inside the room, Rahul said. "I promised Harsh that he would be the first to see me dressed as the bride, so why are you still standing here? Get out of here." I responded while covering my face with my hands. "Riya, you did not accept my proposal; at the very least, you should have given me this right." I listened to him and could not stop giggling. "You no longer playfully fli
"Harsh's point of view,""Harsh, what exactly are you doing here?" Seeing me here, Riya is the most surprised person in the room. "I'm here to dispel some myths around Rachit." I responded while seated in the conference room's empty chair. "What do you mean?" When I noticed Rachit's confused countenance, I felt a great sense of relief. But aside from Rachit, everyone on the board was staring at me in shock. And from the way Riya was gazing at me with her curious eyes, she was not even blinking. "I'm going to call security right away to get you out of here because you may not meddle in our company's affairs in this manner." He gave me an evil-eyed stare. Because of listening to him, I was not in the smallest bit furious at all—because if he knows the truth; it doomed all of his hopes and aspirations to fail. After hearing what he said, I remained silently observing the situation in front of me without responding. "Harsh, please explain to me why you are here." Riya was becoming mo
"Riya's point of view,""How dare Rachit talk crap about you? Where are you driving me? I'll just show him what I mean." I was finding it very challenging to take Harsh to the hospital. I would not have brought Harsh to this party if I had known that he would respond to Rachit's remarks in this manner. "Enough is enough; you are now silently accompanying me to the hospital, and I will not put up with any more of your nonsense." I glared sternly at Harsh. He had just left the hospital a few days prior, and in this circumstance, seeing the injuries on his hand, I was concerned about him. He was gushing blood from his hand. As a result, his body was already running low on blood, and he didn't need to waste any more of it by spitting it out in fury. After all, whatever is taking place, I did everything to save his life, so how will it work if he continues to endanger his life in this manner? "Riya, why are you crying now?"Although Harsh and Rachit's argument causes my ire, Harsh's
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, are you certain you're attending Rachit's party?" When Harsh saw me getting ready for the party, it startled him to see me at all. I said, applying eyeliner to my eyelids. "Yes, of course." "How are you going to handle that man in such a civilized manner? Have you forgotten what he did to you?"I know he has cause for anger, but I must still work to make sure that he does not mistrust me by following his instructions to carry out my plan."Harsh, I remember everything and have forgotten nothing, but it is improper to be personal while conducting business. I also had to go to his party because I am his business partner." I said, finishing up my makeup. "Well, if that's the case, I'll accompany you, so you won't have to go alone to that party. Beyond this, you won't challenge my choice because it is definitive." He announced the outcome while collecting his tuxedo from his wardrobe. "Do you not feel that you are dominating too much?" I asked, raising m
"Rachit's point of view,""Welcome, Riya. All I did was wait for you." As soon as she walks into the meeting room, she immediately creates positive energy in the room. The scent of fresh roses might ease any person's exhaustion emanating from their bodies. "What type of urgency has arisen for you, Rachit, that you wanted me to be here so quickly?" She fixed her piercing eyes on me. I wanted to tease her further when I saw how angry she was and had a crimson face. My choice was perfect, but I was unfortunate in that I could not understand her love. I'm still incredibly remorseful about the time I broke Riya's heart. Maybe today Riya and I would be together, and my child would also be here if I hadn't married Shilpi to protect the family business. But all I can do is regret it. Riya has lived her life with Harsh rather than me. I did all in my power to get her back in my life, but I can no longer see the love that I once saw in her eyes. The only girl in my life who turned down Rac
"Riya's point of view,""Riya, I miss you." He said, holding me in his arms as soon as I got in front of him. "I could not bear to be apart from you." My arms went around him with the same force as his. "Have you taken your medication yet?" I asked while keeping my head in his chest. "Yes." He responded in a quiet voice. After hearing his low voice, I knew he had lied to me. "I am aware of how negligent you are of your health."I remarked while slapping his shoulder. "Sorry, I forgot to take the medicine." When I saw how freely he was smiling, I realized that he still had many of the same habits. "If you made a mistake and are still laughing about it from on high, it's time for you to take some medicine." I said in a commanding voice. "Riya, you must learn to treat me with respect since I am your future husband and not an employee of your company." He answered by pouting like a child. I pulled his cheeks and whispered, "I wish you were one of my employees." "I'd rather not wor
"Riya's point of view,""Please pardon me. Riya, I erred when I stole your dream project from you." In front of me, Rachit is pleading with his hands folded. "Take this: I'm returning all of your company's shares to you." I was going to reclaim the file from his hands that held the shares of my company when I suddenly heard a strange voice in my head. What's the volume of the noise surrounding me? And the noise is only getting louder. What makes this sound so familiar to me, though? Oh shit, I just realized that this is the sound of my mobile phone's irritating alarm clock. I must have dreamt then.And do you believe Rachit will return to your dream project? In a straightforward manner, was it genuinely able to do so? It is only imaginable in dreams. I was being ridiculed by my subconscious for believing my dream to be true. Even though I know well that Rachit will not, under any circumstances, return the shares of my company to me, I still don't understand why there is still some
"Riya's point of view,""Harsh, what are you referring to?" After hearing him, I had an odd impression that he had some sort of plan going through his mind. But what? I must be aware. "Riya, please refrain from posing questions to me. I will tackle whatever needs to be done right away in my style." He had a certain level of determination in his voice. What's going on in his head, though? He has recently become more serious than ever. I've always seen him in a jovial mood, so I was afraid to see him with so many serious looks. "Kindly explain what you're talking about. If you're are not telling the truth about me, I believe they shall soon see me laying by your side on an empty hospital bed." "Oh, Riya, you are being such a jerk." He refuses to tell me what is going through his thoughts even after I have repeatedly asked him to do so, and even then he accuses me of being impatient. "Okay, Harsh, if you believe that, then I will tell you I will not ask questions now; you take care
"Riya's point of view,""Riya Why are you staying quiet? Please respond to my question." I'm not sure what I should say to Harsh, who is sitting in front of me. How can I inform him about the condition Rachit has imposed on me in exchange for his blood? I might even tell Harsh about the first condition, but how can I tell him about the second condition he's put in front of me? However, this moron detective informed Harsh that I had gone to a hotel room to meet Rachit while inebriated? Even when I walked out of that hotel room, I was in dire straits. Will Harsh believe me if I tell him the truth? Will he believe me if I tell him that nothing like this happened between us in the hotel's locked room that night? At any cost, I don't want to lose him again. However, I'm concerned that if I tell Harsh about the deal I signed with Rachit, he'll abandon me. "Riya, you're making me angry now. I've been pleading with you to tell me the truth and not keep anything from me, but you refuse to
