Tied in an unwanted marriage

38. Explain to dadi

Reyansh's POV

I am deeply frustrated with that woman. She and her darling husband were expected to give us space, yet she remained with us throughout the entire day, until we both decided to return to the mansion earlier than intended.

I braced myself mentally for all the possible accusations that might greet us once we stepped through that enormous doorway.

Upon entering, we were greeted by an entirely vacant living room; not a soul was in sight, not even a helper to be found.

"Are we safe now?" She whispered slowly while holding my arm tight.

" I don't know. Maybe for now." I whispered back.

" Let's quickly go upstairs then. Dant dinner mein kha lenge." ( We will get scolding in dinner.) She said a bit louder than before.

We nodded in agreement and proceeded to walk slowly, ensuring we didn't make any noise.

It felt as though I was acting like a thief within the very walls of my own home. Quite astonishing, isn't it?

" Haan yeh sahi hai. Khusar phusar karke fatafat gayab ho jaate hai taaki koi kuchh kahe na haina??" (Indeed, let's swiftly whisper and vanish before anyone of us has the chance to speak, shall we??) We heard a loud and dominating female voice. I don't even need to turn around to know it was dadi.

"Namaste," my wife uttered, then swiftly concealed herself behind me.

" Ab tum samabhalo. Mera kaam khatam." ( Now it's for you to handle this. I have done my work.) She said in a low voice near my ear and placed a small kiss on the back of my neck.

Dadi walked down the stairs and sat right in front of us like a ruler. Which she was.

"Hmm, I need a full explanation. Myra shared her side of the story, but I want to hear it directly from you to ensure that no one was deceiving the family members and fooling around." she stated.

What the hell did she tell them?? How would I know? Shit.

What if what I tell them wasn't what she explained??

Hearing dadi's loud voice, everyone started coming downstairs and looked at us as if we were criminals being interrogated by the police.

Shit!! This keeps on getting complicated.

I heard a ting voice. Someone's phone just got a notification.

I looked at her standing behind me checking her phone. Then she turned her face towards me, showing me the blank screen indicating it wasn't hers.

I had hoped that they just sent us a message explaining the whole story they narrated.

Again we heard the same voice.

" Kiska phone baar baar baj rha hai? Check karo jaldi aur phir explain us." Dadi said.

" Dadiji it's his phone but he isn't checking it. Maybe it's an important message from the company." Kartik said gaining everyone's attention and passing me a wink.

" No no. Check the message. Company is more important." Dadi said worriedly.

I checked my pockets, but I couldn't find my phone. I didn't leave it back there. Yes, I remember keeping it in our car before we left.

" Ohh achha." I heard her voice from behind me.

Now everyone was looking at her and she was looking into..... My phone.
