Your pov:

A sudden ring from your phone wakes you up. Without even noticing who it was, you've picked up the call. "Hello?"

"Y/n, are you sleeping? seriously? Wake up and check the article I've pinged. You are all over the news, " says your best friend, Mina.

You've been friends with Mina since childhood. Though you've had many other friends during each phase of your life, Mina was special. She's been there for you through your thick and thin. Though she's living miles apart to pursue her higher education, you both share each other's day-to-day lives whenever possible.

You quickly wake up and check her messages. You open the link to the article, and it leaves you in shock.

Y/N Benjamin's Secret Boyfriend? reads the headline of the article. you scroll down a bit and open the picture in the article.

How did he even? Is this why he stopped and talked to me the other day? your mind keeps asking you many questions.

Charlie, your classmate while you were pursuing your graduation. Mina, Charlie, and you were the best buddies during those days. One day, he proposed to you. you've denied his proposal as you've never seen him more than a friend. Though you've tried to talk to him normally for a few days, after denying his proposal, he tried to manipulate you, hurt you, and tried many other ways to make you love him. You've started ignoring him. He's been trying to reach and contact you for many years, but you stayed away from him. Two days back, while you were coming out of a hotel to reach your office after attending an important client meeting, you were stopped by him. He talked to you casually for a minute, asking if you were fine, how things were going on, and left. you thought he might've changed, but now it makes sense.

The picture linked to the article is from that day.

"Y/N, are you there?" Mina snaps you out of your thoughts.

otp:
*start*

Y/N : Yeah, I'm here.

Mina : Thank god. Are you okay? What are you thinking? I will seriously kill that bastard when I come back.

you chuckle at her last sentence

Y/N : I thought I've handled him since he was not bothering me all these days, but now that I see all of this, seems like he's been planning to do this since so long.

Mina : Are you worried about your dad?

Y/N : Maybe. I don't know how he reacts.

Mina : Just tell him everything, Y/N. Just talk to him.

Y/N: I wish I could tell him everything (nervously)

Mina : Don't worry about anything. Everything will be fine. I'll call you again. I need to go out for something important. Miss you. Bye, Love.

Y/N: Miss you too, Bye.
*end*

There's that one question from Mina that comes into your mind after ending your phone call.

" Are you worried about your dad? "

Are you??

Y/N Benjamin. Daughter of William Benjamin and Claura Benjamin and the only heiress of Benjamin Group of Indusries. William and Claura got divorced when Y/N was 10. Y/N stays with her dad, William. After divorcing Claura, William never talked to Y/N like before. William stopped loving Y/N, too. Y/N does everything to impress her dad. Y/N even got into business school so that she would take care of the business after her dad. After graduation, Y/N worked hard by taking care of the business, and Benjamin Group of Industries is the 2nd most popular industry in the country now. But still, her dad is not impressed. Y/N wants nothing but his support and love. Y/N wants nothing but his trust. Y/N wants her dad to be proud of her.

While you were busy with your thoughts, the knock on your door brings you out of your thoughts.

Y/N, I want you down in 10 mins. It's William Benjamin, your dad.

You calm yourself down and make way towards your hall where your dad is already waiting for you.

"Hi Dad. Good Mor-" ,

" What the hell is going on Y/N, you know how many calls I've received since morning? you knew something like this would lead to bad reputation for Benjamin group of Industries and still tried to do something like this? you were no way better than your mom." he told angrily before you could even finish your sweet Good Morning.

Your dad's words hit like a pang in your heart. He didn't even ask you what was wrong, but he just came to a conclusion that it's your fault. This is what you want in your dad to change. You want him to listen to you and support you instead of believing some stupid rumors from others and scold you as you were at fault.

"Dad, that's not what happened, actually he tried to -"

" Don't explain Y/N. I can clearly see what's going on. Before you could ruin my reputation or my organization's reputation, I want you to get married. My son in law can take care of my business. You can do whatever you want later." your dad's another set of harsh words leave his mouth.

You go short of words. What do you even say at this point of time. your eyes are welled up with tears. Why would you ruin the organization's name for which you've been working hard every day and night. You thought your dad would be impressed by the way you are taking care of the business. Yet again, it reminded you that it takes just a moment for your dad to hate you more, and now that moment is already created.

All thanks to him. All thanks to Mr. Charlie Johnson.
