Zaviyar: Her Lifeline {ON HOLD}

Chapter 5.

Author's POV:

Zaviyar stepped out of his Rolls Royce, surrounded by paparazzi, something he was an expert of handling by now. A lock in his heart unlocked as he saw the scene before him. It was the lock of jealousy. His fists were clenched, his eyes red, though he couldn't figure out why he felt like that. 

Zoya stepped out of her car, wearing a teal silk gown, adorned with diamond earrings, necklace and bracelets. Her hair tied back into a volumized ponytail, she looked breathtaking. A man from the crowd, Rahim Shah stepped towards her and forwarded his hand to her, which she took without hesitation, trying to avoid any awkwardness in front of the crowd of media.

Meanwhile, Zaviyar's emotions were mixed up...

'She's just a girl, get a life!' his brain snarled

'She's not just a girl, she's a gorgeous, peaceful, cute, adorable, challenging and comforting girl who makes Mr. Zaviyar Khan relax," his heart retorted

'No, Zaviyar doesn't have the time to love, he hates relationships and his main focus is work. Although you gotta admit, she's hot," his brain made him confused

'Yes! She has all the abilities to make her Zaviyar's queen. Work can go to hell, love life comes first,' his heart was more convincing

'SHUT UP! THE BOTH OF YOU! I don't care about her!' Zaviyar once again shut his thoughts and went inside to avoid the scene

If that makes you sleep tonight His heart mocked

As he went inside, he saw his monkey-like friends coming to him. Fawad, who also took up the post of CEO in his dad's office, had to be there. Shayan, who was the MD of his elder brother's office, was present there too.

"Ooo, we saw you looking with hatred at Rahim," both of them started together, earning a glare from Zaviyar

"Why don't you just admit it? You love her. Or at least, you're jealous of her being with Rahim," Fawad spoke.

"I'm not in love. Love is stupid, as for jealousy, my heart did sink at the thought that she could be in a relationship with someone else," Zaviyar replied, sulking.

"Hey Zaviyar, can I talk to you in private?" her melodious voice asked from behind.

Zaviyar being Zaviyar, couldn't say no, so he motioned for his friends to leave

"Umm, I don't know how to say this, but can you act as my fake boyfriend?," she asked, visibly embarrassed.

"Fake boyfriend," he asked, disappointed

"Yeah, I'm trying to get rid of Rahim's obsessiveness. He's following me and since he's a business rival, I don't want to get on his enemy list. If you could just act like it for a few hours, I'd be grateful, you're the only one I know here," She finished, clearing out his confusion, but also making him sad when she used the word 'fake'.

So he took her hand in his, which sent shivers down their spines. He felt a sudden warmth he had never felt before, while she felt complete for the first time after her dad's death.

Rahim, seeing that she was with Zaviyar Khan, whom no one wanted to mess with, backed away from her as he thought they were together. Who knew Rahim would be a fortune teller?

The night eventually came to an end, but who knew this night would cause another lock in their hearts to unlock?

Zoya noticed something strange, so she looked in the rear view mirror of the car and noticed her guards not being there. She asked her driver to stop the car and call them. The driver obliged, calling the guards to find out that the car with guards had broken down at a distance. Zoya asked her driver to call for another car while he should go and find a quick mechanic to fix the broken car.
