Gordon was at Stella's home, her servants served the coffee and went away. Stella said "Mr. Wilson you handled this case nicely"
"Thanks, Mrs. Shane" Gordon said "It was my duty to help you "
"I know that Mr. Wilson" she replied, " although we have won this trial in the future, I will always need you. My son Paul is right now in Germany and he will be back in a few days after completing his MBA.
He is the future CEO of the company so needs guidance and strong bonding"
"I know that but we have to find a way to make this bonding stronger so that I could work for you further without any difficulties"
"Sometimes we have to make compromises Mr. Wilson" Stella said while helping herself to the coffee
"Do you want more?"
"No thanks Mrs. Shane, coffee is nice" Gordon replied and said "you're right but I don't know what is talking about"
"My son Paul is coming back to the United States after completing his MBA and your daughter Siya has also completed her studies" she continued and he asked, "so what do you want to say?"
She thought for a long time and said "If you don't mind can I tell you, Mr. Wilson?"
Gordon said "yeah Mrs. Shane" then she replied "I want my son Paul's marriage..... with your daughter Siya"
He wanted to burst out onto her but he controlled himself and thought "I always wanted Siya to be far away from that idiot Jeremy. Now she is getting a perfect man for marriage. I should agree with her" and he replied quickly "that's great Mrs. Shane. It will make our bonding stronger"Andy was a playboy who flirted with different girls and was liked by maximum girls in the college. He loved Lizzy whereas Siya liked Jeremy.
Siya asked Lizzy "Liz to whom do want to marry ?"
She said, "I love Andy and he also proposed to me yesterday". Siya said "Congratulations my best friend for your future husband" and she thought about Jeremy's fight with her last evening. Then Andy came "hi girls what's going on?"
"Nothing only just watching your basketball match" Siya replied by laughing and she thought about her parents when she saw Andy holding Lizzy hand "come on Liz let's go for a date". After they went away Siya wept the whole way and after wiping her tears she came home.Eric saw her coming from the garden and said "Siya go inside your parents want to talk to you"
She thought and asked, "why?"
He replied "I don't know, they're waiting for you inside" then she entered the home.
She went to their room and asked "yes mom and dad you want to talk to me"
"Yes my child" Samantha replied "I hope that you would be happy with our decision"
"What decision mom ?" she asked
"You know that your dad wants to make strong bonding with Mrs. Shane. So we have decided that you must marry her son, Paul"
She couldn't believe her ears and said "mom and dad what are you saying" she cried and ran away to her room.Samantha said "Gordon we wanted that Siya should get rid of Jeremy"
He said "yes you're right Samantha. I didn't find Jeremy as a nice person. He was a playboy and you know much about him"
"Yeah, and Paul is an educated and responsible person. He is dedicated towards his family and business"
"That's why we want Siya to live with a responsible and caring person but she still loves that stupid brat Jeremy" Samantha sighed
Gordon said "Don't worry Samantha, after marriage, she will start liking Paul and forget Jeremy"Betty said to Siya "Siya try to convince yourself. Jeremy"
Siya said crying "I know that auntie"
Eric tried to convince her "Paul is a better person than Jeremy so please, try to forget him "
"Yeah Eric is right," Betty said "You will lead a happy life with Paul" and Siya left the room without a word.She went away outside near the lake in the countryside and started looking at the scene. After a few hours, she was back home.
Samantha asked when she saw her "my dear do you want to say something?"
She said without looking at her "yes mom". She took her inside the room and said "say, dear"
Siya remained silent for some time and said "I am ready to marry Paul as per your wish" and she went away to her room. She went to the window where her canary was waiting for her, she kissed it and flew it out.
