3 - HIS FAKE PROMISE

ZEESHAN POV

Khan's mansion

I woke up to a disturbing alarm at 5 am, got ready for the day, and headed to the gym.

After a refreshing workout, I returned to my room, showered, and put on a black Armani suit.

I went downstairs to find my family already gathered at the dining table, waiting for me. I greeted them and took my seat.

My dad spoke up, "Shaizain called and said we can go tomorrow to see our future daughter-in-law."

My mom's face lit up with excitement, "Yes, I'm so thrilled to meet her!"

Sara chimed in with a mischievous grin, "Poor girl, she'll have to handle this grumpy man."

My mom playfully scolded her, "Shut up, Sara! My son is not grumpy!"

I smiled at Sara's teasing, and she continued, "Papa, look at how mom is pampering me!"

My dad chuckled and said, "Are, my child, no one is pampering you," I shook my head, accustomed to their daily banter.

My younger brother Ryan walked in, saying, "Good morning, beautiful ladies and handsome guys!" in a dramatic tone.

He took a seat and started having breakfast with Saad and Sana.

I said, in an authoritative voice, "Ryan, stop playing games and focus on your studies; your board exams are coming."

He nodded.

Then, I turned to Sara and said, "And you, Sara, stop watching those silly K-dramas and anime; focus on your studies. You're a university student now." She nodded too.

I continued, "Saad and Sara, I want you to handle a new project. I expect your best work." They nodded in unison, "Okay, Bhai."

My mom intervened, "Stop scolding them, Zeeshan."

I replied, "How can they focus on their future if I don't push them, Mom?" She sighed, "Okay, whatever.

Tomorrow, we're going to Shaik's mansion in the evening, so stop doing your work." I wasn't interested in this marriage. But I had something important to gain from Adeen's grandfather, and I was willing to go through with it.

I rose from my chair, grabbed my phone and car keys, and said, "Okay, bye. I'm going." I walked towards my car, ready to leave.

I sat in my car, driving to the office, when my phone rang.

I answered, Fahad, my PA, said, "Sir, the Rajputs are here to sign the deal." I replied, "Okay, I'll be there in 15 minutes."

I cut the call and entered the meeting room, where two men in their early thirties were waiting.

I approached them, and one of them said, "Hello, Mr. Khan. It's nice to work with you." I replied, "The pleasure is mine, Mr. Rajput."

We sat down, signed the deal, and had two meetings with the team.
