Billionaire’s Love From India

Lavanya turned to look at Eden. She came near him and asked, “How is this related to my brother?”

“Let me make this very clear Lavanya.” He stood from the bed, looked into her honey brown eyes and said, “If you refuse to stay here and to marry me, I will destroy your brother’s career and it will also affect your family business but if you stay here by my side, I will help him in reaching great heights and your family business will also be saved. Think Lavanya, if your family business gets shut down, lots of people will lost their jobs.” She looked at him and he smirked.

He moved closer to her and whispered in her ears, “Take your decisions carefully as lot’s of lives depend on you including your brother’s. Choice is yours sweetheart.”

“Keep my brother away from this thing.” She said, looking straight into his eyes.

“Sorry sweetheart, I can’t do this. I know he is your weakness and you can do anything for him.” He smirked.

“He can also be my strength.” She said, confidently.

“Then make him your strength and accept me in your life, otherwise you better know the consequences of saying no. Even your grandfather knew that if he refused to send you to me, what can I do with your brother’s career.” He said, looking at her face.

Lavanya closed her eyes and remembered all the moments with Daksh where he always protected her since childhood and how he was also worried about sending her to London alone. Now, she was feeling that all his worries were right and she was having mixed emotions like of anger on her grandfather, a little fear and sadness because she going to take the decision of living with a stranger, leaving her own family.

“You’ve protected me so many times Bhai(Brother), Now it’s my turn to do something for you. I know you will be very angry with me, when you will get to know that I just agreed to stay with him and sacrificed all my happiness to save your career but I have to do this for you and for our family business, which is dad’s hardwork. I am sorry.” Lavanya thought and opened her eyes only to find Eden staring at her with no expression on his face and no emotions in his eyes.

Daksh was trying to call Lavanya. He was continuously trying to call her. Aakash entered his room and saw him pacing in the room here and there anxiously.

“Why haven’t you slept yet?” Aakash asked and Daksh turned to look at him.

“I am trying to call Lavanya but she is not picking the call.” He said while calling on her number again.

“Daksh, stop calling her. You should understand this that she must be tired after a long journey and should be resting for a while. She will call you soon. Don’t get too worried. If you get worried, your mom’s worries will be doubled.”

“But Dad, My mind and heart are both telling me that something is wrong with her. I am sorry that I am saying this, but this time I can’t trust grandpa because my heart is not allowing me this.” Daksh said, throwing his phone on the bed.

Aakash placed his hand on his shoulder and said, “You should sleep Daksh. You need rest to calm your heart and mind.”

He left the room. Daksh sat on the edge of his bed and held his head in frustration.

“Please call me Lavanya.” He laid on the bed and tried to calm his worries and himself down but he wasn’t able to sleep. His mind was continuously thinking about Lavanya.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Eden was continuously staring at Lavanya waiting for her answer but she was silently looking back at him. He was slowly losing his patience and anger was getting visible in his eyes now. He shook his head, walked to the door and was about to leave the room, when he heard her.

“I am ready for this.”

Eden turned to look at her. He walked up to her and asked, “What did you just say?”

“I am ready. I will marry you and stay with you.” She gulped down the lump formed in her throat and a tear rolled down her cheek as this was the most hardest decision she took in her life.

Eden wiped her tears with his thumb.”Say it again.”

“I will marry you.”

Eden was feeling very happy. His eyes which were emotionless a few minutes ago were now, shining with happiness. He kissed her forehead and hugged her. She didn’t hug him back and was just like a statue in his arms.

“Thank you so much, Lavanya. You don’t even have any idea how much your yes means to me. Today, I am feeling like I have got my entire world and happiness back.” Eden said, breaking the hug. He left happily thinking about his marriage and upcoming life with Lavanya and she started crying sitting on the bed. She laid down on the bed and soon the pillow under her was all wet with her continuously flowing tears which she kept on wiping but more tears flowed down like water from her eyes like water from the waterfall.

Her life was totally changed by just one decision taken in helplessness. She suddenly became someone’s fiancée from a college girl. She dreamt of wearing a graduation hat but now she will be wearing a wedding dress.

She dreamt of becoming successful in business and wanted to fulfill all her dreams but here she just sacrificed everything and agreed to stay with someone, whom she hardly knows. The only thing she knows is that she has made a wrong decision but she also knows that she has to do it for Daksh? She has to stay strong for him and her loved ones back in India as she can’t do anything else and can’t go back to India. Now, she has to only wait to see where this wrong decision will take her in life.
