a shocking proposal

After I hang up" on the phone I went and slept and next morning I got ready, went to college came back home picked up my luggage and Zoya and I went into a beautiful land rover that drove us to the airport where we went towards my boss's private aeroplane and seated ourselves and admired the beauty of the plane soon the plane took off...
An hour later we reached Delhi and exited the plane and collected our luggage and exit the airport at the exit I see my boss and his driver and I wave and go by him with Zoya following me...
Me: "Hi sir how are you?"
Sir: "Khushi I am fine and you but one thing I have to say that I am very angry with you."
Khushi: "Why are you, upset sir?"
Sir: "Because every day we fight about the same thing Khushi. Outside the office, you address me by my name ok. Plus you didn't introduce me to your friend."
Khushi: "Ohh Haan I forgot sorry Zoya this is Adi my boss/best friend and Adi this is Zoya my Best friend/Sister. "
Adi: "Hi Zoya."
Zoya: "Hi Adi."
Adi: "Ok girls intro done now let's head to Khushi's house. "
Khushi: "Good idea."

Third POV...
Adi and his driver escorted the girls to the car and packed the luggage in the boot of the car. Soon they made their way to Khushi's house...

Khushi's house...
The driver took the girls things inside.
Adi: "Khushi as per schedule I am meeting a client at 7:30 pm at a restaurant so..." before he could finish Khushi completed it for him.
Khushi: "So I should be ready at 6:45 pm and your driver will be here at 7:00 pm to pick me up and take me to the restaurant. Am I right?"
Adi:"150% right. Ok then see you later bye... uhmm... Bye Zoya."
Zoya: "Bye Adi. "
Khushi: "Bye Adi."
Khushi rang the doorbell and Buaji opened the door...
Buaji: "Hare titaliya you arrived come inside. Titaliya is she Zoya your friend."
Khushi: "Yes Buaji she is Zoya my Best friend. "
Zoya: "hello Buaji."
Buaji: "Hello betiyaan."
They all go inside and Khushi shows Zoya her room and then goes to her room. After freshening it was 17:00 pm and Buaji called Khushi and Zoya to eat.
Khushi: "Wow Buaji all my favourites. "
Buaji: "Yes you must be missing home food so I thought to make it for you."
Khushi: "Thank you buaji. Do know Buaji it is also Zoya's favourite dishes."
Buaji: "That is wonderful betiyaan. They are coming in 25 minutes so eat fast."
Khushi: "Who Buaji?"
Buaji: "Payaliya's sasuraal vaale."
Khushi: "Ok but I am only free for 2 hours to tell them they must be quick."
Buaji: "Ok I will inform them. Once you both are done go and put something nice on."
Zoya: "Ok Buaji."
Once they had their dinner Khushi and Zoya went to their rooms to changed Zoya wore a baby blue Kurti and matching palazzo pants and Khushi wore a formal white shirt with a blue blazer, black skinny legged pants and taupe heels and matching handbag paired with diamond stud earrings and a statement silver necklace.
Buaji sees Khushi and says: "Are you working today?"
Khushi: "Ji Buaji that is why I only have 2 hours."
Buaji: "Ok what time will you be home."
Khushi: "I don't know Buaji."
Then the doorbell rang and Buaji went to answer it and Khushi left her bag on the table.
Buaji: "Namaste come inside."
Mami: "Namaste Madumatiji."
Anjali: "Namaste Buaji."
Khushi sees them and goes to greet them and they get shocked to see Khushi's new appearance.
Khushi: "Namaste mamiji. Namaste anjaliji."
Mami: "Namaste betiyaan."
Anjali: "Namaste Khushiji. Changed a lot I must say."
By this time everyone was seated in the living room.
Khushi: "No anjaliji actually I work and I have a meeting with a client just now."
Anjali: "Oh ok. Mamiji let us discuss what we came to."
Mami: "ok. Madumatiji the thing is that Lavanya is infertile so we want Khushi to marry Arnav betwa and if you don't agree then I will make sure that Akash leaves Payal since she is infertile as well."
Buaji: "What are you saying Manoramaji. It is illegal to have a 2nd wife.
Mami: "Since the media don't know about Arnav betuwa's marriage it would make things easier as we will announce that Khushi betiyaan as The Business Tycoon ASR's wife and also their marriage is not legalized will make Khushi Arnav's legal wife."
Khushi: "Ok fine but I need to speak to Lavanya and Arnavji first."
Anjali: "Ok they are on their way."
Khushi: "Ok let me get some tea and snacks. Zoya comes with me."
Khushi and Zoya go in the kitchen and after about 30 minutes they come out and Arnav and Lavanya were sitting there. They passed out the tea and left the snacks on the table.
Khushi: "I heard everything your mami and di said but what I want to know is do you both agree to this. This proposal should not be pressurized on any of you."
Arya: "Yes we agree without any pressure. "
Khushi: "Ok then listen I have two conditions. "
Lavanya: "We accept any condition of yours Khushi."
Khushi: "First listen to what I have to say."
Arnav: "Ok go on."
Khushi: "I will not marry Arnavji not that there is any problem with him but I don't want to be known as the other woman in their life but I will have Arnavji's child for the sake of my Jiji's marriage."
Mami: "But how ... it is not right to have a child out of wedlock."
Khushi: "I know mamiji but I will have his child as a surrogate. But the child will be known as theirs and people must think that Lavanya is pregnant. "
Arnav: "Ok I need time to think and the second condition."
Khushi: "well that will come later on if need be. Ok then if you agree to book an appointment and let me know when it is..."
Then Khushi heard the Hooter of her bosses land rover.
Khushi: "I am sorry but I have to leave now as I have an important meeting right now so I will see you on the appointment day." She picked up her handbag and left.
Khushi's POV...
"I am doing this for my Jiji and people will think that she is ruining her life by having another man's child other than her husband's, and some will think she had an opportunity to marry and became the legal wife of that man and what a wonderful deal it was. But she did not want to ruin her best friend's marriage and be known as the other woman. "

At Shantivan...
Arya's room...
Lavanya: "Why didn't you agree to have her as a surrogate."
Arnav: "Because I am worried about her future. Who will marry her after knowing that she had another man's child growing inside of her."
Lavanya: "Then you should marry her. Our marriage is not legalised so you should marry her."
Arnav: "Lavanya our marriage is being certified and we are legally going to be married so I can't marry her."
Lavanya: "But how?"
Arnav: "Well firstly I was feeling bad for hurting your feelings so I registered our marriage. You remember I left a file for you and told you to sign it and read it about a week ago it is a very long process."
Lavanya: "I signed it but I didn't read it. Ohh, thank you so much Arnavji. But at least give in for the surrogacy, please. "
Arnav: "No..."
Lavanya: "Swear an oath on me that you will do it." And put his hand on her head. Emotional blackmail one thing he hated more the relationships was emotional blackmail. He cared for Lavanya and he agreed.
