LIFE I CHOOSE

AND WE MEET AGAIN

"I am so proud of my dear, I know I wasn't there for you while growing up; however am grateful and proud for the woman you've turned out be. I pray to God that he blesses and protects you everyday and that you remain happy always", Sarla told Preeta while hugging her. She still feels guilty for how Preeta left and how she hasn't been a good mother too both her daughters. However like Preeta buried and forgot everything she has to do the same and put the past behind her since a beautiful life awaits them. Preeta amazes her so much because of the four daughters Preeta is most educated, kind and most generous yet she's the one she thought life would be hard for her since she's was the most fragile of all. Everything good thing has been in her favour and she hopes Shrishti follows in her footsteps. She remembered when she heard Preeta tell Shrishti that leaving home was the best decision of her life and that she regrets nothing, perhaps she's right about it because that decision changed her life for better. She couldn't help it but smile. Her daughter is an angel. Preeta hugged her mother saying thank you to her and that she loves her very much. Today was a big day for Preeta, not only was she opening her new Hotel but it was her inauguration as the official President of Annabel Holdings Limited & Arora Hotels, Restaurants & Bars.

While in the United States, she was never fully introduced to her position because she and Ms. Annabel 's employees wanted to mourn for Ms. ANNABEL as a way of paying their respect to her so not many  workers knew her but they could see her in and out different offices going through some documents and signing too. They had no idea that she was Ms. Annabel's heir or even their boss. She delegated most of the work to Sophia and Dianne and that's how it's gonna be because even though she likes the business type of work, she loves her patients more. The event is gonna be broadcasted live so that the other people in her companies in the United States are able to see what's happening. Ms. Annabel's lawyer Mr. Phillips stayed and she reinstated him as her lawyer too, so he's taking care of things from the other side until Dianne goes back and take over as the managing director from that side and Sophia is to stay in India. She's also thinking of making her sister  the Assistant Manger for Sophia  while Sophia remains the Chief Executive Officer. She hoped that everything goes well today however there is a part of her that is scared especially when she was told that the entire Luthra family was gonna be present; meaning that she's gonna come face to face with the family that humiliated and hurt her so much, and Karan Luther, just thinking about him does things to her and now she has no idea how it's gonna be when they finally meet. This is a man she loves and hates at time; the man that forced her hand to make a decision of leaving Mumbai however she doesn't regret leaving because it made her life even better and when she looks at  both of them, she turned out to be a winner because she has always been innocent. So that alone should give her the courage to face him. She didn't do anything and she has nothing to lose here.

Sophia and Dianne had reached earlier to for see the preparations and make sure that everything is well organised. They had to make sure nothing goes wrong but smoothly. "I think everything is now set and it looks perfect, also the guests have started coming, I wonder what time this girl will reach here", Sophia complained. "You should get used to her by now because she's always late but I hope for today and for her sake she comes on time", Dianne answered her. And a few minutes she received a call from Preeta informing her that she and her entire family were on their way. Her son was coming but so is his nanny. As soon as she had finished talking to Preeta, she saw three cars parking and was entrigued because the faces looked familiar and when she looked closely, it was the famous Luthras; Karan came alone, Rishsbh, Sammy and Kritika also in a another car and lastly she saw that Mahesh, his wife and sister had all come. "I didn't think the whole family would be in attendance honestly", she told Dianne who was just as surprised as her. "Let's hope our girl isn't affected by this family whatsoever", Dianne said and Sophia agreed with her. They weren't sure how Preeta was gonna handle their presence however it's feels like Dianne and Sophia over underestimate her a lot.
