Chapter 3
Sid's POV
I don't turn or look at her. I'm not in the condition of justifying my statement or giving her an explanation. I have a few hours left and I'll have to prove my innocence before my clients.
"Sana," I call her in a casual voice. She doesn't respond. I guess she left. I turn around and find her nowhere. Instead of looking for her, I prefer setting up my plans. Sana can wait, but my position can't.Sana's POVI run into the washroom controlling my tears and lock the door. I burst into tears as I remember his words. How can he say this to me?There's nothing personal between us? Then what's this between us?
We are together for fucking five years. I've never let any other guy touch me, I've never thought of anyone else except for Sid. I gave everything to him. And he did that too. He had never dated or hooked up with any other girl. He never touched anyone the way he touches me. He lived with me in the same bedroom for the last 3 years. We have had sex more than a thousand times. And he says there's nothing personal?
I scold myself for this. I look at myself through the mirror. My eyes have turned red. This is the 3rd time I cried for him.
The first time— he met with an accident. The second time— 2 years back when he was leaving Toronto for a few months. And I cried just because he said a single line. What the hell is happening to me? He never said he loved me. He never said we had been committed. Then it's my foolishness to cry over a single line he said. I don't know why I am thinking about all this. Our relationship is just an addiction. Nothing else. He is addicted to me. And I'm addicted to him. That's all about us.
Sid's PovI try to concentrate on my work. I had a chat with Cristiano and he is not in the mood to talk to me. He trusted all those fake clips shown by Alex. I hardly know Alex's wife. And I've never looked at any girl like this. There's only and only sana. I can't cheat on her. Though we are not in a relationship, we always shared a beautiful bond from college days.I still remember when I saw her for the first time. We both were attracted towards each other and ended up giving our virginity to each other. We tried dating other guys and girls. But the comfort we found with each other was magical. I can't stand anyone else except for her. Not physically but also mentally. She became a part of my life, my happiness, my bad days. She supported me every time I fell. And I supported her every time she needed me. We remain loyal to each other without having a serious relationship.I don't know what she is to me. But she is everything to me if I keep my business aside.
But nowadays Sana is behaving immaturely. She keeps dragging our relationship into everything. Doesn't she know I love only one thing on this earth? That's money.. and only money. I can't bring her to the top of my priority list. Otherwise, I'll lose my goal.My chain of thoughts breaks as my phone rings. I take out my phone and discover Alex's number on my screen. I hate this guy from the bottom of my heart. There are many reasons. But the reason that matters now is he has ruined my reputation in the market. Shareholders are claiming back their shares. They don't wanna work with me. Soon I'll be on the road from a billionaire."What do you want now?" I pick up and roar at him. I hear his pathetic laugh over the phone. My blood starts boiling."Brother," Alex laughs."I said what the fuck you want now?" I yell at him clutching the paperweight as I try to control my temper."As if you have something..," he mocks at me."You're finished, Sid. And now you can give me anything. I just wanted to know how my brother is feeling"
"I'm not your brother," I scream"Oops! Sorry. Stepbrother," he sarcastically replies."I don't even consider you that. How can you stoop so low? You have tarnished your wife's image to frame me," I shrug."Don't act decent bro. It doesn't suit you. I can be an asshole but you're much bigger than me," he smirks."Now you should enjoy your last few hours as a CEO of GJC"
"In your dreams. I challenge you. I'll get back my company within 8 hours," I yell againI hear the roll of a laugh. He is laughing at me. In my words. But he doesn't know what's waiting for him.I cut the call and message my assistant Roshan as I smirk. A big nightmare is on the way to Alex.Sana's POV
Though Sid is on the top of my priority list. But I'm not unprofessional. I lost my temper in the morning which left a bad impression on my personality. I am working for hours to contact all of the shareholders as I feel someone's presence there. I look up and find Sid staring at me. I'm clueless about how I should react. That line pinched me. Should I act normal as nothing happened? Should I show my anger as his one single line affects me? Or should I work it out by talking to him?"You ate something?" He says leaving me surprised."Umm... no," I reply. "I'm trying to reach at least one of the shareholders," I try to be professional at work."You don't need to," he says."What?" I exclaim."Let's go home. Will you make dinner tonight? It's my birthday, no?" He chuckles.I couldn't be more surprised. He was yelling at me this morning because I had told him to visit his mom. He said he wanted to focus on work. Our company is at stake. We have only a few hours left before the official comes and seals down our office. And he is now asking me to make dinner for him. Sometimes I feel I know him more than anyone else. Sometimes I'm confused. Do I even know him?"But work....," I mumble."Don't worry. It'll be sorted," he says as my eyes pop out. Sorted? How? Is that so easy?"Sorted?" I exclaim.He holds my arm and makes me stand up. He turns off my computer and drags me out of my desk."Sid," I worriedly say. "Are you ok? Is everything alright?""All well, Sano," he lovingly says. I melt by his words as I almost forget those things he said to me a few hours ago. Is he trying to cover up? Is he trying to be good so that I forget what he said? But he generally doesn't do it. He never tries to explain and shows fake concern. I know he loves to spend time with me. I don't doubt him. I walk outside with him.We make our way to his car. He drives home. I turn on the radio as always. And it is airing news live. Sid is focused on the road and I'm on the radio. After a few slides of national news, I hear something shocking that makes my eyes turn bigger."Influential businessman Alex Matthew's wife Olivia Matthews has been kidnapped from her own house," the news says.Sid's POVAfter hearing the news Sana looked at me as she got shocked. I smirk as I look at her. She stares at me for a few seconds and she too smirks. Soon we both burst into laughter. She comes close to me as I peek at her. We both kiss passionately while I continue driving. We do this every time whenever we find the smell of victory. We break our kiss in a short moment since I'm driving.She seductively slides her fingers through my cheek."I knew it. You're gonna kill it", she says. "Now let him cry for his dear wife"She laughs again and I join her too. This is the thing I love about her the most. She never judges me, she never prohibits me from doing somet
I discover Advocate Daniel standing by the dining room. He wasn't supposed to be here at this hour. Sana and I look at each other as we stand up to greet him."Good evening, Daniel," I walk towards him as Sana follows me. We both warmly welcome him by shaking hands."Good evening," he too greets. "I hope I didn't disturb you at this hour," he adds.Why do people on earth say this after they almost ruin anyone's moment? I smile at him casually."Not at all," I fake being happy. I didn't want him to be here. Since the day it's all started Sana's behaviour began changing. I always love to be real with Sana. However, now we'll have to act like a perfect couple in front of him."Daniel please come and have dinner with us," she offers him with a smile. What's the need to offer him? I like the version of her that she shows before Eva or anyone else. Though I act like I don't like her boldness, I admire her fighting with p
Sana's POV I'm shocked after knowing the truth about Olivia and Alex's marriage. I'm not worried about the agreement right now. But all I care about is our company. Roshan has kidnapped Olivia so that Alex tells the truth of the scam by which he trapped Sid. And now we got to know that Alex and Olivia aren't in a serious marriage. Therefore, Alex will never do something to save Olivia. My head is pounding with hundreds of thoughts. "Should I disclose the matter of your marriage to your father so that you can get your owing shares as soon as possible?" Daniel asks. Sid doesn't reply to him. He lowers his head, joining him both hands with his forehead. He must be thinking about his mom. If she gets to know about our marriage, she'll create a scene. And if we tell her that our marriage is fake, she will surely tell the truth to his father. After a long break, Sid finally looks up to Daniel. "Sure. I want my shares as soon as possibl
Sana's POV continued "Yes. You were right," I join him. "We finally played our cards, Sid. I'm really happy" "So I am," he says and pats my head. I find it adorable whenever he does this. He glances at me intensely as his palm trails down to my cheek. I look up at him. Our eyes meet. Sid's POV I stare at her as a genuine smile comes across my face. She keeps looking at me while leaving the rest of the bread on the plate. I discover a little bit of food dust at the corner of her lips. After a whole day, I'm finally peering into her gorgeous skin. Thousands of thoughts poured into my mind as I rub my thumb to clean the dust from her lips. She holds my wrist, our eye contact is becoming deeper with every passing second. I adore her beautiful black eyes, her brownish spotless skin, her rose petal lips while she is wearing no lipgloss or lipstick. Her glowing pinkish lips invite me to leap into them, consume them like drugs. I want to consume
Sana's POV continued He stops caressing my belly as I say this to him. I smile sarcastically again and open my eyes to look at him. He is too stunned to say anything. "Sana...you," he mumbles. I expected this reaction from him. However, I don't want things to get awkward between us when we have just lived a beautiful moment. "Relax," I laugh at him as I try to overcome the awkwardness. "I was kidding" "You always scare me," he sighs as he takes me into a deep embrace. Why? Why does it scare him? Why does loving me haunt him? I turn off my inner soul again so that I don't do any stupidity again. I don't want him to be more disturbed. Finally, we got some relief. I don't wanna snatch them. "It's time to celebrate, no?" I say as I look up. I discover him staring at me. "Yeah," he agrees. "Tequila or Vodka?" I ask. "You know my preference," he smirks. "Me or Vodka?" I chuckle as I get
She becomes nervous as her first impression in this office wasn't desirable at all."I.. thought you were gonna..," she stammers while speaking. I hardly get to see a girl like her who gets anxious while talking to me.Her eyelids look fluffy like waves of the ocean; I manage to see the sight as she lowers her eyes. I keep gazing at her. I don't like people being over-excited about their upcoming goals. It doesn't look professional at all. One should have the attitude and spark into his/her eyes which were missing in her eyes."Sir," Tina interrupts. "I told her to come. Plz, give her one chance. She has the potential""She? You mean her?" I mock her words. "She can only mumble and stammer like a dumb," I shrug as I ignore eye contact with her. I mean what I said. The way she talked, stammered and looked, shows how much less confident she is! Guys may like a girl like her when it comes to relationships but not in work, I guess. I just guessed.
Sid's POVI stand straight as she tries to move. "You can go to your place," I order her. She leaves the chair in a haste and walks away. I re-read the mail, I must say she is good at communicating but what the fuck was she doing? Stammering, mumbling. Do I look that scary? However, I don't care what she thinks about me."You think that's gonna work?" I asked her. "You've barely written four lines""I'm not here to impress anyone. I'm here to convince you. There's a big difference between impressing and convincing," she finally completes her statement without stammering. I wanted her to do so. Because somewhere I don't need a dumb girl in the company who can't utter a line properly. How will she be managing the work I'll assign her. I realise she is not dumb, she is too naive to handle."Impressive!!," I exclaim. "I said I'm not here to impress," she spits.I raise my eyebrows as she keeps surprising me with her savage
I can't believe my eyes, what the hell am I seeing? I feel a minor ache in my heart; he doesn't look at me and continues talking about the latest appointment that we'll have to attend."I need to have a chat with our primary client. Thankfully, we got another chance to convince them as they accepted the mail which Bella delivered," he says, his eyes are glued to the computer screens but my eyes are on him."Who's Bella?" I ask, a pinch of doubt mixed in my voice. He looks at me as he feels discomfort in my voice."The new girl," he says, raising his eyebrows."I see. So she just sent the mail?" I ask, annoyed. I'm pissed off right now, I can never imagine Sid being close to anyone else. He had never. Why the heck does that girl comes so close to him?"Yes," he rolls his eyes, he hasn't realised that I noticed the lipstick stain; or maybe he doesn't even know about the stain on his shirt."What else was happening here?" I shrug, being unable to c
