20

She kept looking at him in shock. Zayn knew he had hit the right place this time.

"He is not like me, no matter how bad I can be, however, am, it'sall in front of you. However, Huzaifa is lying to all of you. Despite being married to you, he's having a good time with his other wife.

"It's all rumors..."

She knew what Zayn is saying was not anything new, this same news has been circulating on social media for almost a month now.

However, Moomal could not stop her voice from trembling defending him.

Her broken tone was clear proof of her condition.

"If these are all rumors, then why after the news broke, he never came out and sue those news channels for spreading such serious accusing? Why is he still silent regarding this issue? Why didn't he deny it even once..?!" Zayn's tone was full of anger, he was so confident that Moomal felt her faith wavering.

On the other side, Zayn couldn't believe her simplicity and naivety.

"Look at me..." Zayn held her both arms. "I know you guys got married because of your grandfather, and Huzaifa likes Ruby, but I... during my whole life, I've loved only one person and that's you." Zayn's tone was extremely soft but modest, his eyes not only have his deep love for her, but they also had pure respect for her too.

She was trying her very best to keep her tears at bay. Although she felt like, someone's tearing her heart apart.

The pain she was feeling at this moment was becoming unbearable to bear anymore.

"I still want you Moomal..! I still want to marry you ..." Zayn got hope from her silence, that maybe Moomal would accept his proposal.

But Finally, she reacted by removing his hands from her shoulders.

"I'm going home..." not showing any of her pain, She said softly.

"Why don't you understand...! he doesn't deserve you...!" Zayn once again tried to persuade her impatiently, and this time, before she could say anything, at that exact time, she heard Huzaifa's voice from outside.

He was knocking on the door, asking her to open the door in a very angry tone.

She felt as if someone had pulled her soul out of her body.

She became numb and ignored Zayn and tried to move towards the exit, however, before that, she could have taken a step away from Zayn, or she could answer Huzaifa, Zayn pulled her in his arms and hugged her tightly against his chest.

At first, she did not understand anything, and she froze. However, Huzaifa's angry voice, coming from outside forced her to regain her consciousness.

"Zayn...! What are you doing! Leave me...!" Moomal's heart was pounding hard. She tried with all her might to separate herself from him, but it did not affect him.

"Please Moomal, leave Huzaifa. divorce him. I promise I will marry you and I will never look at anyone else. Please forget him, please..."

She heard his pleading voice near her ear.

Moomal could not understand what was happening.

outside, Huzaifa now was angrily pushing and kicking the door, and here, Zayn had caged her in his arms.

She knew she has to do something. So She tried to explain to Zayn again. "Zayn please try to understand, I am already married, and you can't force me to divorce Huzaifa."
