Author POV,

As soon as the sound of breaking of those glass cups echoed in the hall, Mansingh looked at Rashmi with some anger.

"What are you doing beta? What happened to you, are you okay?"

Before Rashmi could reply to this question of Mansingh,

Sweta Bhabhi interrupted and said,

"Oh, it's okay uncle. I think she has become a little nervous. Actually this happens to everyone. It's okay, relax."

Rashmi was standing there as if she was neither able to hear nor understand anything.

Just then Mansingh drew Rashmi's attention towards himself by scratching his throat and made a light gesture.

"Rashmi beta! It's okay. Now come, come and sit."

Hearing Mansingh's harsh voice, Rashmi came and sat on the sofa in front of him.

Rashmi was still not able to make eye contact with anyone. Especially with the person sitting in front of her, on seeing whom her hands started trembling.

"Our granddaughter has also lived in Mumbai. She has done a course in fashion designing for a few years. And now she wants to take our textile factory and our family business forward. Now I just want that whatever dreams she has, they get fulfilled as soon as possible. And then I will also be able to live in peace."

After Mansingh said this, the conversation progressed some more.

Meanwhile, Shweta Bhabhi started saying to Mansingh.

"I think we should send Rashmi and Viraj to talk alone. After all, it is these two who have to get married. Am I right Viraj?"

"Sure Bhabhi!"

Viraj said straight away and after adjusting the buttons of my coat, Viraj stood up as if I was waiting for this moment only.

"Yes, yes, why not."

Mansingh also agreed.

He gestured towards Rashmi to come with Viraj. Here Shweta Bhabhi smiled at Viraj.

But without giving any reaction to her, Viraj started following Rashmi.

Rashmi took Viraj to the lawn behind this villa. Where both of them started walking together.

Rashmi still had some tension and a slight fake smile on her face. Whereas Viraj's face was completely flat.

"So how many years have you been in Mumbai?"

Viraj asked Rashmi while starting the conversation.

"For 4 years, for the last 4 years I was living in Mumbai. Then grandfather's health deteriorated, so I had to come back. And now I have my own,,." Rashmi said while answering this.

"And where do you intend to live later? I mean, after your grandfather's death?"

Viraj asked Rashmi, interrupting her.

Rashmi found it a little awkward to hear, When Viraj saying this.

But still she kept smiling slightly.

"umm, where are you? I mean, after we get married. Wherever you say, there..."

On hearing Rashmi's answer, a strange sarcastic smile automatically came on Viraj's face.

Viraj laughed a little and started looking at Rashmi from top to bottom.

"Marriage...?"

Viraj asked and she shook her head slightly in embarrassment.
