Love's Redemption by Khamya Rafiq (Series 1)

Chapter 3

Beiron's POV

"Father, should I really do this, mingle with those people? You know I don't like this." Beiron said while fixing his tie. He remembered how Khamya fixed his tie for him every time he go to work. Recalling this made him more uninterested to the party.

"You don't have to like it, what's important is you show up!" sternly said by Sheikh Ahmadi then started walking to his car and Emir Beiron followed him.

After about half an hour, they finally arrived at the venue. Sheikh Ahmadi walk inside first, while Beiron took a deep breath then sighed before he go on.

Inside the building is a jaw dropping view, it speaks of grandiosity. Only the royal newsmen can enter, and all the people invited are the people who are member of royal society. But all these things can't fill the emptiness he felt inside as he's away from his beloved wife.

While Beiron is busy observing the place and the people who are obviously being plastic to each other, there's a group of ladies at the corner whose also interestingly observing him.

"There he is!" excitedly said by the woman with a long black hair.

"I'll make sure he'll choose me." said by the lady with curly hair.

"He has a wife, and obviously in love with her. Tsk! If not for his unspeakable wealth I wouldn't do this." said by another lady with a blond hair.

"Well me? I like him, he's hot!" said by another blonde then giggled.

"How about you car-" asked by the woman with curly hair but her words were hanged because lady Caroline disappeared from her side. "Where's Caroline?"

"Eating like a pig!" mockingly said by blonde girl at the same time pointing at her at the buffet table.

"When will she learn to act properly?" frustratedly said by the girl with black hair, then she started walking where lady Caroline is, and so as the others.

As they got there, one of them immediately rebuked her.

"Nah, it's fine. You know I don't like this even a bit. I'm just here because my father told me so. Besides, I wanna be the first wife someday not just a concubine." then lady caroline turn her back then pick another food.

Not long after, she got irritated when her friend keeps on elbowing her in her side.

"Stop bugging me." She said without looking. Yet, her friend keeps on hitting her. So she swallowed her food fast then annoyingly look at her friend. But when she look at her, her friend is stunned and blankly staring somewhere or should she say someone when she heard a guy cleared his throat.

"I believe you're lady Caroline?" she heard being said by a guy whose voice seems familiar for her. 

She look at where her friend is staring and she's astonished by what she saw. She step forward to confirm it while eyes still staring at the man in front of her.

"It's you!" she astonishingly said when she recognized the man.

Beiron knots his forehead that says a do-I-know-you look. But when recognition dawned at him he said, "Oh! The lady at the-" he hanged his word when the woman suddenly had a panic look then warned him through her eyes not to say anything and when he heard the voice of Sheikh Mazur, Caroline's father he immediately understood.

"So you've met my daughter Emir Beiron. What do you say?"

Beiron cleared his throat before speaking, "Well, Lady Caroline is beautiful and I bet charming in her own way." He honestly said when he remembered how the lady knock a guy. His last definition made the other ladies raised their brows, and brought a triumphant laugh to Sheikh Mazur.
