Shreya's POV

Next morning I woke up hearing a lot of chaos outside my room.
I rubbed my eyes and went downstairs. On reaching downstairs I saw my dad worriedly pacing around the living area. Our family lawyer along with few other lawyers discussing some matter.

And some other men talking on thier mobiles.

My mom sat on the couch shocked.

I went to my mom and asked her "mom?".

She looked at me and her eyes turned glassy "Shreya." And with that she hugged me tightly.

I was confused "what happened mom? Is everything fine?"

She shook her head in no and more tears escaped her eyes. "No Shreya. Nothing is fine. We are bankrupt"

"What??" I yelled, all the people turned towards me.

"What do you mean mom? Dad what is mom saying.?" I stood infront of my dad.

"Its true Shreya. We are bankrupt" he whispered sadly.

"What? But how can this happen?" I asked.

"I dont know. Someone is behind all these--" my dad was interrupted by someone. "You are right Mr. Khurrana" I turned around and saw Mr. Anirudhh standing at the entrance door. His hands were inside his pants pocket.

"Mr. Anirudhh I dont know how all of these happened." My dad said while moving towards him.

"I know How and Who did this." He exclaimed.

"You know? Who is he?" My dad asked angrily.

"He is standing right infront of you Mr. Khurrana" he smirked.

What he did all these? But my dad has not done anything wrong with him. Then why he did this to my dad.

"What do you mean Mr. Anirudhh?" My dad asked he was still hopeful. That what he heard is not right.

"I mean that. All this is done by ME." He said proudly.

"How can you backstab me Anirudhh. I trusted you." My dad said with vulnerability. I have never seen my dad this vulnerable.

"That is your biggest mistake, Mr. Khurrana. Trust. You should never trust anyone. Ever." He said this angrily.

"Anirudhh please dont do this. What is our fault that your doing this with us?" My mom pleaded him while walking towards him.

"I am really sorry Mrs. Khurrana. But I cant help you." He said in a fake sad tone. "Everything that you own is now mine, this house, your compa--" I interrupted him.

"How is this possible?" I asked Anirudhh.

"Mr. Khurrana made me the owner of everything he owned".

"But why would dad do that?" I asked.

"This whole scenario would have happened a few months ago, I helped him and he named all of his propeety on my name. But I wanted something in return but I guess Mr. Khurrana is still not able to do that for me. Right Mr. Khurrana?" He faced my dad.

"What do you want?" I asked. He wants something from my dad although everything my dad owned is ready his.

"Mr. Khurrana why dont you tell her what I want?".

"Dad. What he wants?" I asked walking towards my dad.

"Shreya he wants YOU" I stopped in my tracks. My feet couldnt move.

"Me...? What do you mean dad?" I asked my dad with an unbearable pain in my heart. My heart stopped beating.

"He wants to marry you." My dad said and looked down. He was guilty.

"No. No. I cant. Marry him. I cant marry anyone except Mayank. I love Mayank." I told that to myself. Tears escaped my eyes. "Mr. Anirudhh, stop all these nonsense. I wont marry you." I stated with hateful eyes.

I hate this man. More than I ever hated anyone.

"Shreya. I am asking you. Will you marry me?" Anirudhh asked with stern tone and emotionless eyes.

"No. I will never marry you". I stated with utter hatred.

"I am asking you again. Will you marry me Miss Shreya Khurran" he asked again. This time he sounded angry.

"And I am again telling you that I will not marry you, Ever."

He looked at me with angry eyes. "Ok. I want this house vacant till the evening." After stating this he went out.

Evening

I turned around and looked towards the house. Which was my home a few minutes ago. I was teary eyes, I tried stopping them but they just wouldnt stop.

I slowly walked away from there. I walked at certain distance when someone held my wrist stopping me from walking any further.

I turned around and_______ Mr. Anirudhh was holding my wrist in a firm grip.

He huskily whispered "lets go. Wifey" I despised this word since the moment I married him.

I just stood there with no emotions. Tears flowed down my cheeks. I was a crying mess right now.

Author' POV..

Anirudhh dragged Shreya with him towards his car. He opened the back door for Shreya, once Shreya entered he too entered the car and sat beside Shreya.

He told the driver to drive towards his house.

Throughout the journey Shreya sat staring at an endless direction. Whereas Anirudhh was busy in his mobile.

"We reached Sir" the driver informed Anirudhh.
