All Chapters of Destined to love: Chapter 201 - Chapter 210

Ben opened his eyes with the first rays of morning light. He lowered his head to look with eyes filled with love at the woman lying in his embrace. She was now his wife. A dream that he had dared to pursue with his all but never hoped to have fruition ... it would be a lie if he said he wasn’t apprehensive about what would happen when she woke up...because she wasn’t yet aware that she was his wife. He had tricked her into marrying him. Looking her sleeping soundly, he kissed her forehead lightly before getting up. He knew she wouldn’t get up any time soon, he was a beast last night... only letting her go once she fainted from exhaustion... his face curled up into a smile as thought of it... Ben turned off the alarm as he left the room closing the door behind him. He went downstairs and opened the front door. There was a suitcase packed with his necessities and the marriage certificate, thanks to Shadow. He must have left it here last night. He left the marriage certificate on the tab

“Did you not stop and think of how this would affect Dana?” Sarah who was quiet all this time asked in exasperation. “She didn’t know that it was the marriage certificate that she signed” Ben responded lightly. “I am talking about her emotional state after something happened to you” Sarah shook her head in dismay. “It’s not like she’s in love with me and I am irreplaceable... She should be able to forget and move on” Ben responded in a low dejected voice. The thought of Dana moving on felt like a rock crushing against his soul, but he still hoped that would be the case. “You think she doesn’t love you?” Sarah rolled her eyes “You just said before that sex outside of wedlock is her bottom line and Frank said she agreed without hesitation and conditions when she heard that your life was at stake.... Do you think she'll agree if it was someone else?” “No” Ben rejected without even thinking. “Remember what she did when Maine drugged her? A woman who would be reckless about her life,

“Ding…Dong..Ding…Dong...” The doorbell woke them both. Ben got up “I’ll get the door. It might be Shadow” Dana sat up flinching, her body still hurt like hell. She looked resentfully at Ben. “Take your time... or I will come and get you in a few minutes” Ben’s lips curled up in the corner as he pretended not to notice her glare and walked downstairs. Ben opened the door expecting Shadow, however there was just a picnic basket at the front door. Ben raised his eyebrows and pursed his lips forming a mocking smile “You’ve learnt to run as well?” Shadow was not foolish to respond and give away his location nor was he bored to deliver the basket and be at the receiving end of Ben’s tantrums. What Shadow didn’t know was Ben was in an exceptionally good mood as the clouds from the morning has dissipated. Ben closed the door and turned to see Dana slowly coming down the stairs. He quickly put the basket on the dining table and walked up to her. He lifted her horizontally and carried her

She gave up struggling as she needed to stir “For now, you will have to make do with this 'I' country dish.” “If it’s made by you, I can even eat the dish from hell.” Ben nibbled on her soft lobes. “Ben don’t be like this.” Dana tilted her head ticklishly. “Um.” Ben had no intention of stopping. Dana turned the stove off and turned to face him. She pushed a plate to his hands “Go keep them on the table.” Ben grunted but complied. Dana carried both the dishes and the coffee to the table before serving. Ben looked at the soft fluffy mass on his plate curiously. “Do you like sweet or savory?” Dana asked before turning back to go to the kitchen. “I have never eaten this. I don’t know. How do you eat it?” “Most people eat with sugar sprinkled over it. I like to mix with something spicy.” “I will try spicy.” Dana nodded but hesitated “Actually eat with sugar today. The curry is leftover from 2 days. I am not sure if you…...” “I will eat what you are eating.” Ben interrupted pursin

Ben helped Dana carry all the stuff to her apartment in Peach Blossom before driving away to catch up with his friends. Lara had not yet arrived. Dana settled the little ones in her room before going to set the table for Lara. Everyone was already seated and waiting for Ben when he arrived. Ed and Frank looked curiously at Ben as they still didn’t know how his mental state was. The two cowards didn’t have the courage to call him and ask. “I guess everything is settled.” Ed raised his eyebrows. “Better.” Ben smiled. “So, are you going to kill us with suspense or tell us what went on?” Tyrell asked impatiently. He was dying to know what happened. ‘Bloody Frank and Ed kept playing Dodge ball.’ Ben smiled and raised his cup “Friends, let me celebrate an important milestone in my life with my dearest friends.” Everyone raised their cups and clinked, but their jaws fell open as they heard the rest. “I am married to the love of my life.” “Son, are you alright?” Daniel finally asked a
