Shubham was going to his office when suddenly his car halted.
"Why have you stopped, here?" He asked in frustration.
"Sir, a girl is lying unconscious on the road." Shubham took a deep breath and went out of the car. He looked at the girl and ran towards her, "Amber, Mannat. Open your eyes." Mannat was lying unconscious on the road. He picked her up and brought her to the car. The driver was shocked by his behavior. He never let any stranger even come closer to his car and now, he was taking an unconscious girl inside the car. He sat while holding her in his arms and said, "Drive to my penthouse and call a doctor there."
"But sir, office..."
"To hell with the office. Just do as I say." He yelled and the driver did as he said. He took him to his penthouse. Randheer took her inside and made her lie on the bed. He sprinkled some water on her but she was not waking up. The doctor had come. He checked on her and said, "It was due to weakness. I've given her glucose and she's also stressed. Looks like she's going through an emotional turmoil."
Then, the doctor left after that. Randheer came and sat on his knees beside her. He held her hand and placed his lips on it, "I am sorry, Amber." He went to make something for them to eat.
Meanwhile, she wakes up and finds herself in an alienated place. She tries to remember how she got there, but there's no memory. She tries to get up but stumbles. She was about to fall yet he saved her from falling.She opened her eyes and found herself in his arms. Tears welled up in her eyes looking at him. She blinked continuously to stop the tears that were threatening to flow. She pushed him away and sat on the bed.
"Why am I here?" She asked.
He went and sat beside her but she moved away from him. Her action hurt him but he again moved closer to her.
"Please, Stay away from me." She said looking at her lap.He knelt in front of her. She was confused. "What are you doing?" She asked but he held her hand and said, "Please listen to me once."
"Listen to you, for what? To know that I am just a mere assistant, an employee. To know that you made me feel special to push me away the next moment. To know that when I took a step ahead, you stepped back. To know that I am just your option. To know how you played with my feelings. I am a toy to you, right? Play whenever you want to and throw me away the next moment." She said while crying. Tears had started falling from her eyes. But the next moment, he cupped her face and started sucking her tears. He sucked her every tear while kissing it but she was still crying and said, "Stay away from me, Randheer. You are kissing a mere employee." He joined their foreheads and shook his head saying, "No, you are not. You are not a mere employee. You are special, special for me. I have never liked any girl before but you are different. You are an exception in everything."
"I am sorry, Mannat. I am genuinely sorry for every word I said. I was not in the right state of mind. I didn't know you were talking about our marriage. No one told me about it. I thought everyone was trying to control my life. That's why, I said all of that. Please forgive me." He added."Why should I forgive you?" Mannat asked looking straight into his eyes.
"To give me a chance to join that heart which I've broken intentionally or unintentionally! Please forgive me. I'll give you every happiness in this world to prove my sincerity. I'll do anything you say to prove that I genuinely want to apologize.""You'll do anything?" She asked and looked into his eyes for any doubt but there wasn't any as he confidently said, "Yes, anything."
"Okay. I'll think about it." She said and he smiled.
"Will you forgive me?" He asked.
"Yes, after you prove your sincerity." She declared while she thought that she would trouble him so much now. Her inner self was dancing thinking about it.
"Okay. But let's have breakfast first." He said and got up to go. He moved towards the door but realized she was not coming with him. He turned back and saw she was not even able to stand. He went towards her and took her in his arms.
"What ar...." She was about to say but he cut her off saying, "Just trust me. I wouldn't let you fall. And even if you fall, I promise to catch you before you touch the ground." She wrapped her arms around his neck. She looked at him, his beautiful eyes, big eyelashes, long nose, perfect lips, and sharp jawline. Unknowingly, her hand went towards his cheek sending a current through his entire being. "What are you doing?" He asked and said, "Nothing!" She said it so innocently as if she didn't do anything. He let it be and made her sit on the chair. He served her breakfast. It was a sandwich with tea.
"Where are we?" She asked.
"In my penthouse." He said and started eating. They both ate their breakfast.
"What about the office?" She exclaimed while standing from the chair. He picked her by her waist and placed her on the counter of the kitchen.
"I gave you a day off! What else?" He replied while washing their dishes.
"You made the breakfast?" She questioned with curiosity and he said Yes."It was delicious! No one has made such a tasty breakfast for me for years. " She exclaimed and he washed his hands. He went in front of her and held her by her waist. He went dangerously close to her ear. His breath fanning her face. She shivered under his proximity and her heartbeat increased with her breathing.
He pulled her closer by the waist and said, "Say yes to the proposal and I'll make it every day for you." She was still shocked by the proximity. Her cheeks had turned red. He smirked looking at it.
She pushed him away and said, "Not so soon, Mr. Randheer Shubham Rajvansh!"
"It's okay. We'll make it sooner, Mrs. Soon-to-be Randheer Shubham Rajvansh!" He said winking at her making heat creep to her cheeks.They were talking when someone rang the doorbell. He went to open the door and Rosy Blackwell entered inside.
"Hello! Darling." She said hugging him and he said, "Hello, Rosy! You are here in India."
"Yes, Shubh!" She exclaimed and sat on the sofa."Why didn't you go to the office today?" She asked and he said, "I had a very urgent work to do."
He went towards the kitchen and saw the fierce kitten sitting there on the counter. She pulled him by his collar and asked, "What is she doing here?"
"How would I know?" He said trying not to increase her anger.
"It's your house!" She said but he said, "CORRECTION! It's our house. Let me take you out, now."
"No, make her leave first."
"But she's here to especially meet me!"
"Do you like me?" She asked and he said, "Why, what happened?"
"Give me the answer?" She demanded.
"Yes, I do!" He said and she smiled. She wrapped her arms around his neck and said, "You wanted to do something. So, take me out and tell her that you like me!" He smirked sensing her jealousy and said, "Is something burning?" She glared at him listening to him and again said, "It's okay. If you don't want to do it!"
He didn't say anything but picked her up in bridal style and took her out where Rosy was sitting.
"Wow! Mannat. You are also here." She said while Randheer made her sit on the couch and sat beside her.
