The Messages were Incredible. Like argh-see for yourself!

My Dear Soon-to-be Wife!

You know how cute you look when you are angry. And damn, that makes me lose my control! So..before I kidnap you in front of at least 100 witnesses, Please forgive this Handsome Man of yours~

This man is narcissistic even in his messages! But it's just so cute.

Darling, You looking for Punishment? Because You are already looking more Stunning than you already are, and then on top of that, your style is killing me!

This guy clearly knows what effect he is leaving on me.

Enough is Enough Senorita! Don't Test My Patience. You have only seen My Gentleman image till now. So Kindly, My Beautiful Lady, don't force me to show you My Devilish Side~ ??

God! He even messaged me on My YouTube Channel!? And wait wait wait! That emoji isn't giving good vibes at all.

Your Highness, I am already starting to believe that You bring out new Feelings in me, too much in extent that I have created a brand new account on this app just to ask you for your forgiveness! Don't you think you should show some mercy on me? ??

I twirl around the hallway as I read the message. It was the Best among all.

Just imagine Mr. Aloof and Cold Business King being all cute and sweet for me!?

I guess He is stalking me. How did he find out that I use Wattpad!? And how easily he found my account!!

Baby, You really are playing hard to get? Don't. Because in the end, you have to be with me! MINE. I am going to message you until you forgive me. Even if it takes a whole damn eternity!!

A smile appeared on my face. I'm really God's favorite child. Believe it or not, because he blessed me with the BEST!

Princess! Now do you want me to read your Favourite Books and imprint their famous dialogues/quotes here on your Socials? I won't mind though but I would rather choose to say them out loud.

Because.. I would like to show the World that the blush you own on your face is because of me!

Mr. Ruvit fucking Rathore!! Just stop it. How can I be angry with you if you will keep behaving like this!

And the cutest thing about him is 'His Wae'.

There were no messages but just requests of 7-8 Accounts with weird names!

Forgive Me Ardhangini

I won't ever do this again

Listen to me atleast Baby

I'm extremely sorry Jaan

Please Princess

Don't be Angry na

I'm Missing you already

This guy even managed to create so many accounts within such a short period of time.

I switched off my phone immediately and ran towards Ridhima's room.

This guy is Dangerous!

How did I managed to get such a Mr. Perfect!?

?

"Ridhima!" I called out as I entered inside her room.

She didn't respond anything.

I walked towards the dressing table to check upon her but to my surprise she was...sleeping?

No way! I shook her a little but she didn't flinched.

"Ridhima!" I again called out for her in a worried tone, "Please wake up, Ridhima!!"

She was sleeping in a head down position on the dressing table and a glass of half drunk juice was there beside her.

A sudden strike hit my mind as I realised that Ridhima wasn't sleeping, she has..fainted! Yes, only fainted.

My heart beats were abnormal.

I tried to calm myself down and slowly picked up that glass.

I sniffed it to check for its odour and seems like it was just a neutral orange juice.

But no, something is definitely wrong with this juice.

I checked Ridhima's breathing, pulse and her eyes. Everything was normal. Temporarily faint, I see.

I checked around the room with an eagle's eye. And I got it what I needed.

The CCTV Camera!

Which might have been turned on after Ridhima got ready.

I can't panic in such a situation. I have to inform someone first. Everyone are waiting for the Bride so I can't delay it.

I took out my phone and dialed Nandini's number. She picked it up at first dial.

"Nandini, Listen I need your help!" I said.

"Help My foot. Tell me where are you?? God everyone is here! Rituals are going to start" She stated.

"What are you talking about? How can rituals be started without Bride??" I protested.

"Have you lost it?? Ridhima and Manish Bhaiya are sitting on Mandap right infront of my eyes!" Nandini explained.

"How that can be possible?" It was almost unbelievable.

"Aridhi.." Nandini called out.

"Nandini! I'm currently standing in Ridhima's room only. She has been fainted!" I tried to make her believe.

"WHAT!?" Nandini whispered shouted on the call, "I'm coming there!"

We hang up the call and Thank you Kanhaji for giving me such a Good Bestfriend.

But just think..If Ridhima is here then who is on the Mandap??

After a few seconds, Nandini barged inside the room and looked at me and then at Ridhima.

She was also surprised as me.

"It's actually true!!" She gasped.

I looked at her, "Something is definitely going on wrong! We have to stop this marriage."

"Definitely!" Nandini said after examining Ridhima's condition.

"She has been given Sleeping Pills of High dose!" Nandini exclaimed.

Me and Nandini made Ridhima lay on the bed as Nandini checked on her.

"Who can do this, any idea?" Nandini asked me.

"I have a doubt so I decided to check that Camera" I said while pointing at CCTV.

"You go! I am going to take care of that bitch who is sitting at Ridhima's place." Nandini said while walking towards the Mandap.

I walked towards the Control Room.

I was about to step inside when I heard some families voices.

I immediately recognised them. I took out my phone and started the voice recorder.

Ofc I can't let such a chance go waste.

"You sure Ridhima is not going to wake up for 2 hours?" These are the words of Ruvit's grandmother.

So, she was behind all this!? Such a cheap scheme. Huh!!

"Yes Grandma. I have even manipulated the waitor to not open her mouth regarding that juice!" These are the words of that Ananya.

"And here this pendrive in which CCTV footage of Ridhima's room has been recorded!" Ananya said further.

I clenched my fist out of anger.

"I don't want any mistake Ananya. Did you sent the right girl on the Mandap??" Grandma asked her.

"Ofcourse Grandma. Manya Varishth, The one and only daughter of the Biggest International Trader!"

"Aridhi was busy with Ruvit and Nandini was busy with Dhruv. I simply took that as a chance to replace the bride!"

"Manya is in love with Manish Bhaiya and you have talked with her about this marriage earlier, which made my work easy!"

"I have even sent the Reporters and paparazzi away from this venue. They won't get to record a single mishap! And hence, no damage to reputation!" Ananya committed everything.

And that's it! I can't believe that Grandma was plotting such a scheme behind her own family.

I barged inside the control room on which both Grandma and Ananya flinched.

"You..what are you doing here!?" Ananya twitched her eyebrows at me.

I looked at her with rage in my eyes.

Ananya was about to speak but I didn't gave her a chance. I grabbed her throat and pressed it lightly at first.

She shouted and struggled to freed herself.

She wasn't touching the ground anymore as I tightened my grip on her throat.

She coughed, shouted, pleaded. But I didn't gave a fuck.

Grandma tried to stop me and just to keep some respect of her, I left Ananya. She felt on the ground while strangling to breathe.

I would have dragged this Ananya to Mandap by holding her hairs all the way.

But anyway A mark of my hand reside on her neck which gave me a little satisfaction.

"Don't you feel any shame doing such a bitchy work behind the backs of your own family!?" My question striked Grandma's face.

She didn't said anything.

I decided to leave but Grandma stopped me.

"Please Aridhi, don't tell about this to my family! I'm joining my hands infront of you." She pleaded like I don't know she was faking it.

She tried to grab my foot but I jerked it off.

I made my way towards the Mandap where another level of drama was going on.

My gaze met with Ruvit.

His face wasn't flawless anymore. Veins were popping out from his head as he clearly show how much worried he was.

He took a sigh of relief after taking a good look at me.

He was worried about me?

I wiped the tears from my eyes which were about to fall.

Ruvit immediately moved towards me and embraced me in his arms.

I don't know why I'm crying or want to cry but I do know is He is My Safest Place.

Whenever I am around him, I just forgot about all my worries. I feel secure with him by my side.

He gently patted my back as he tried to make me calm,"Princess! Shh it's Okay. Wae are you crying?"

How will he react when he gets to know about her grandma's scheme?

Ruvit cupped my cheeks and kissed on my forehead,"Don't Cry Baby! I'm always here for you, no matter what the situation is."

I slightly nodded as he hugged me again.

I snuggled in his chest as he held me tighter and closer to himself.

We broke the hug after a while just to hear the commotion which was going on in the background.

Manya Varishth, the first person who came in my view after Ruvit was the only daughter of one of the Richest International Trader.

She was wearing the same Lehanga as Ridhima. She was looking so much similar to Ridhima that no one could have differentiated it.

I never knew that she was interested in Manish Bhaiya, in such an extent that she would join hands with someone like Ananya.

She lacks nothing. She can get anything she wants. But she decided to take such a path to achieve that, which was utterly Ridiculous.

Currently everyone is criticizing and questioning her about all this matter.

"Details, Gurl!" I said to Nandini.

"Well I came here and just pulled out the veil from her face! Her reaction was hilarious" Nandini replied with a laugh.

"ANANYA WAS BEHIND ALL THIS!" Manya shouted suddenly. Everyone's attention turned on her.

"I was in Love with Manish but I was furious when I heard that he was getting married. Just then Ananya came to me and proposed a offer. Offer of replacing the actual bride! She did something to the actual bride and dressed me similar to her. She found a chance and made me sit on Mandap with a veil to cover my face!" Manya explained.

Everyone was shocked to hear her. Before anyone could react something, Grandma came with Ananya beside her.

"Manya is the Most Perfect match for Manish. And Ananya just did what was right." She exclaimed elegantly.

"It doesn't mean that you will play with my daughter's feelings!!" Narmada Aunty took a stand.

"I did this just for my grandson. No one cares about your daughter!" Grandma scoffed.

Narmada Aunty was about to fall as she lost her balance but Ritu Aunty held her.

"Maa!! Manish Loves Ridhima and nothing is more important than their Happiness. You think Manish will be happy with Manya? NO! NEVER! Mark my words but my son can go against his whole family just to be together with Ridhima. As for Ananya, SHE IS NO ONE TO INTERFERE IN OUR FAMILY MATTERS!" Ritu Aunty spoke in a high pitched tone.

"It's improper for me to speak in between the elders but I would like to clarify some things!" I pulled out a chair from aside and sat on it with my one leg on another.

Maa looked at me as if I'm going to do something which will embaras her.

I glanced at Grandma who was shivering at my sudden action.

Uh-Interesting! She should fear.

I turned on the voice recording of her and Ananya's conversation.

I didn't wanted her to get humiliated by her own family but she is just so full of herself.

It's important to break her Fucking Ego.

Ananya glared at me but who cares!?

A Waitor was passing by but I called out for him and he gave me glass of Red Wine.

I took a sip from it as everyone looked at me with confusion.

I slowly chuckled and then looked at Ananya.

"Why is your throat swollen and red?" I asked her on purpose.

She flinched for a second,"Uhh.. it's because of y-" She tried to claim but Grandma held her hand to stop her.

I pulled out my phone and turned on the recording.

As the recording played in the background, I drank my wine sassily.

Everyone's eyes were now pinned on Grandma and Ananya.

"It's just a recording!! It can't prove anything!! It can be edited!!" Ananya tried to protect herself.

Bitch do you think they won't believe me!? They have trust in me and that's why a voice recording is enough.

"You were defending Ananya but it was actually your doing!" Manish Bhaiya moved towards his grandma.

"Does it break your ego if something, in your family, happens without your consent!?" He added angrily.

"We have talked about this matter earlier. I clearly stated that Don't dare to come if you cannot accept our wedding but you still did. I thought you are ready to give it a chance but you were actually here to ruin everything!! Why? WHY!!!???" He shouted in the end.

"I have a rule which is need to be followed! Women of our house don't go out and work. After marriage, they should have one and only responsibility that is-of their family!" Grandma replied calmly.

"Your mother didn't even consider my decision and directly fixed Ruvit's marriage with this Aridhi!!" She pointed at me with hatred eyes,"Do you want me to get you married with someone I don't like!?"

"You didn't even like Mummy but still she married Papa. Right??" Manish Bhaiya questioned.

A tear escaped Ritu aunty's eyes when she heard it.

"But atleast she left her career and looked after the family!!" Grandma answered frustratingly.

"She hadn't left her career only if you hadn't blackmailed her!!" Bhaiya's voice raised.

"Manish! Let past be the past." Aunty pleaded.

So, this old woman really blackmailed Ritu Aunty!? Fuck her.

Ritu Aunty was such a Great businesswoman and this old woman just ruined her.

Bhaiya didn't listen to his mother and just glared at his grandma.

"Yes!! I forced her. I blackmailed her. So what!?" She challenged.

"I will marry Ridhima for sure. Do whatever you want, if you have guts!" Bhaiya challenged back and went towards Ridhima's room.

"That was really too much!" Dhruv exclaimed and looked at me, "By the way, You are so awesome!"

"I know!" I flipped my hair,"Your wife did a great job too."

I looked back at Dhruv and Nandini.

Dhruv pulled her closer to himself and muttered, "That's My Girl!"

I smiled at them and glanced at Ruvit.

"You are not angry anymore, Right?" He suddenly asked while coming close to me.

"I'm!" I tried to avoid him.

"C'mon Don't be angry M'lady!" He whined.

I know he is fine from external but deep inside, he is hurt.

My Strong Boy.
