Marrying Mr. Arrogant Chapter 27
After he left, my eyes were affixed on the hand he held. Curling my lips in a sincere smile, I brushed my thumb over my wrist. I could understand his hesitation. He was not used to all this. Exhaling, I was looking down as Jacey rushed to my side, “Are you okay, Saafia?” Having no idea what happened to her brother, he walked away without a single word. Blinking, I came to reality, turning my head to her. “Huh? Yeah, yeah. Did you take the picture? Show it.” I continued to smile, looking at the picture. Having the perfect pose I always wanted to capture with my husband. “Send me this right now.” I grinned, setting that picture of ours as my wallpaper immediately. “Wow, you guys were looking intense. I told you, you guys look perfect together, didn’t I?” She whispered. And this time, this sounded like a compliment. When she first said it, it felt weird, outrageous but now, it felt.. Good. Why? How was this possible? “Thank you.” Whispering shyly, I tugged my hair behind my ea

DARIEL’S POV:- Well, I lied. No, not lied entirely but the part that she was taking the spotlight was right. She was taking the spotlight of ‘my’ gaze. I was unable to look elsewhere, I wanted to stare at her, grab her waist again, push her against the wall and kiss- What the hell am I thinking!? “Huff. Stop it.” Holding my forehead, I shook my head to release those unwanted thoughts and began to look for Jacey. I wanted that picture she took so I could make it my wallpaper. “Jacey, listen, send me the picture you took. Now.” I said quickly. “Okay, I will. But, where is Sam, Dariel? He was right here and now vanished. Can you find him please?” She pouted, losing her patience when he was nowhere to be found. “Okay. I will take a look. Must be doing a touch up or something. Don’t forget to send me the picture.” I nodded, motioning to her to calm down. “Hmm.” I went to the first floor from the main hall, searching for Sam. Humming to myself, I saw Jacey sent me the picture

SAAFIA’S POV:-Shit. Shit. Shit.I could feel all the progress we made was fading, it was eradicating all because I spoke some words in a spur of anger back then. Because of my few mindless words I never thought I would lose everything. She didn’t think twice before telling everyone.She didn’t think about her brother’s image either.“Dammit. What should I do?” I muttered, pacing around the room after changing my clothes.Dariel worked hard to clear up his name and she smeared it. And the thought of what he would do to me was frightening me. ‘Is he going to hurt me physically?’ I thought worriedly, chugging some water to calm myself. Pushing my hair behind from distress.Some time passed and my fear was increasing. Sitting on the bed, I was clutching the sheets, before I knew it, he entered holding a hint of dark, malevolent eyes.“D-Dariel…” Murmuring hopelessly, I got up, clutching his sleeves. Narrowing my eyes, tears recollected.Holding a stoic face, he inhaled sharply, removin
Marrying Mr. Arrogant Chapter 30
For the upcoming week, Dariel was avoiding me. It was giving me a strange crushing sensation. Our home without our talks was painful, I was used to our bickering. And this silence was killing me.I didn’t expect this would affect him this deeply to the point he would start keeping his distance with me.“Welcome-”I was waiting for him in the hall, when he came, I tried to greet him happily but he stopped me like everyday.“Missus Cannedy. I am busy.” My jaw clenched when his cold tone came out. Using my words on me to hurt me.‘Damn you, Jacey, you left but you stole my relationship.’ I thought angrily, watching him entering our room as I went after him.“Dariel, please, are you going to remain angry with me forever?” I questioned sorrowfully, closing the door and walking to him.He was about to take off his coat as I took it and moved to the front, opening his waistcoat.He averted his gaze from mine, holding a stoic expression. Not his usual intense stare or smirk which pricked me
Marrying Mr. Arrogant Chapter 31
DARIEL’S POV:- “I am so sorry to hear what happened at the party, Dariel. Are you okay, my brother?” My jaw clenched when the cousin I resent the most asked in his fake charming tone. “Yes. Ups and downs are a part of life. You don’t have to be vexed about my marriage, Helder.” I responded dominantly, trying to sound as calm as possible. “Oh, why can’t I be worried? Though I am intrigued to see what you will do to Sam. Heard he touched-” My mind lost when he pinched my sensitive near, “Nothing happened. Stop believing in the rumors.” I growled, curling my hands in a fist. “I see. Ah, well, then I want to come and see my sister-in-law.” To which I replied immediately in a cold voice, “You don’t have to.” “But, I will. For sure.” With his enunciation in a suppressed dark chuckle and ravaging my mood he cut the call. “Dammit.” Cursing, I threw my phone away after talking with Helder which only worsened my mood as Ian entered, perplexed at my dismay. He knew how much I hated t
Marrying Mr. Arrogant Chapter 32
‘Heart is angry with those it loves but can never hurt them.’ “Damn you, Ian, inducing stupid thoughts in my mind. There is nothing like this and will never be…” Growling, I finished another shot of my drink. Staying in my studies at home, I was avoiding Saafia for the time being, drinking constantly. I had no idea what I was doing anymore. “What the hell was he thinking before saying all the bullshit?” I was still in my black office shirt, three buttons opened, hair messy as I rolled my sleeves to my elbow, holding the glass so tightly that a crack appeared. “That idiot. Since when has Earth and Sky been seen as one?” After talking with Ian, what never crossed my mind before began to enter and it made my heart thump. My breaths were rough, my mind hazy. It was intoxicating to me. All because of his damn words! “Dammit!” Cursing loudly, I broke the glass and drank straight from the bottle to the point I was drunk. My mind was barely functioning, my body was heated, not in

We were at Saafia’s place, I was holding her shoulders when we entered. She was already weak, passed out as well and I was not sure how I was supposed to handle her in this time of grief.The second we entered, the tears she suppressed so far began to spill out. Leaving my grip hastily, she ran to her Father’s lifeless form.“Saafia-”I tried calling but she was too devastated to listen. Falling on her knees beside him, she held his arms desperately.“Papa? Dariel, my father… He- He.. he can’t leave me like this.” She began to sob, tears streaming down her face. My heart clenched miserably, I sat on the ground beside her, taking her free hand.“Hey, it’s going to be okay-” I whispered softly. I couldn’t bring myself to witness this condition of hers. Such anguish was not made for her. Her tears were piercing my heart.“No, It won’t be!” Sobbing she slammed her hands down, shaking her Father. I glanced at Sarah, she had emptied her heart and was now looking at Saafia in compassion.
Marrying Mr. Arrogant Chapter 34
After talking with Jacey, I went to my room to see Saafia. She was having nightmares and I had to check up on her constantly to see if she was alright or not. Gathering my courage, I knew I had to be the one to be at her side whether I would like it or not and entered slowly. “Saafia?” I called her worriedly, hoping she’d be asleep but she wasn’t. The second I opened the door, she rushed to me hopelessly. “Dariel! Where were you?!” With a whisper-yell, she was before me, losing her breaths. Watery eyes narrowed with a strong urge to have me beside me. “I was downstairs. Uh, Jacey came.” I cleared my throat, moving to the side to point towards her. Jacey rushed inside and engulfed her in a hug. Her attachment towards me had begun to distress me. “Saafia. Forget what happened, I am so sorry to hear about your Father. How are you now?” Jacey said sweetly, holding her close. “You stay with her. I will get you something to eat.” I said expectantly, turning my head away. She
