Unexpected Destiny ✔️

✿ Chapter 20 : Office Visit ✿

It's been five month to their marriage, everything was going smoothly, the love between them was blooming slowly and they are enjoying it.

Today is Sunday but Sidharth was not in home, as he was working on his big project day and night, he was busy from past two weeks, his scheduled is too busy he barely had time for his family.

"Shehnaaz beta kya kar rahi hai?" Rita maa asked her entering in kitchen.

"Maa Sidharth ke liye lunch ready kar rahi hu itne busy hai wo kuch din se theek se khana hi nahi khate, na theek se so rahe hai raat ko late aate hai aur subha jaldi chale jaate hai" she pout sadly.

Rita maa nodded "haa wo na shuru se hi aesa hai ek baar kaam ne lag jaaye to karke hi chhordta hai"

"Hmm isliye Maine socha kiu na main unka favorite lunch ready karke bheju"

"Are bheju kiu tu khudh le ja aur khila kar aana apni aakho ke saamne"

"Maa main kese... main kabhi nahi gai unke office aur agar unko aese mera aana acha ni laga to?"

"Dhat pagal kiu acha nahi lagega khushi se pagal ho jayega tujhe dekh kar" she chuckle. Shehnaaz blush and look down.

"Ab khana pack kar le aur le jaa hmm"

Shehnaaz nodded and pack all his favorite dishes.

Shehnaaz stepped out of the house and sit in the car, her heart pounding in anticipation. In her hands was a carefully packed lunch box, still warm with Sidharth's favorite dishes. Today was the first time she would visit his office since they got married. She would be stepping into his daily world, the place where he ruled as CEO.

Sidharth had mentioned how busy he was lately, barely getting time for proper meals. He had no idea she was coming by today, she wanted it to be a surprise. The idea of seeing his face light up when she walked into his office with his lunch. The thought made her smile.

As Shehnaaz walked through the glass doors leading into the lavishly designed corporate headquarters of Shukla Enterprises, she could not help but feel a little nervous. It was a world of polished floors, sleek furniture, and sharply dressed professionals. Everyone seemed so poised and efficient, moving with purpose as they attended to their tasks. The contrast between this high-powered environment and her more laid-back personality made her hesitate for a moment. But then, she reminded herself, she was not here just as a visitor, she was here as Sidharth's wife. But will he like if she told herself as his wife, nobody know she is his wife as they didn't announced their wedding yet.

The receptionist at the front desk looked up and smiled warmly as Shehnaaz approached "Good Afternoon, mam. How can I assist you?"

"Good Afternoon" Shehnaaz replied, smiling back. "I'm here to see Sidharth um, Mr. Shukla"

The receptionist's eyes widened slightly "Do you have any appointment?"

"No, i brought his lunch" she show her the lunch box.

"Sorry mam i can't let you in without appointment"

"Umm can you call Miss Priya? She know me" Shehnaaz said politely.

"Ohkay wait".

Shehnaaz nodded and waited as the receptionist made the call. She looked around, Tall windows let in natural light that brightened the vast, open space. The hum of quiet conversations and the clatter of keyboards filled the air. It was impressive, no doubt, and she couldn't help but feel a sense of pride knowing that Sidharth was the one running it all.

"You're all set" the receptionist said, gesturing toward the elevators. "His office is on the top floor, and his assistant will meet you there"

"Thank you" Shehnaaz replied, clutching the lunch box a little tighter as she made her way to the elevator.
