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
Marrying Mr. Arrogant Chapter 33
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.

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
Marrying Mr. Arrogant Chapter 35
SAAFIA’S POV:-I had no when I started needing him and his presence next to me anymore. At first I thought it was due to grief, because I lost Papa, because of the guilt inside me.But, I was wrong.I started feeling these sensations for him long before and he had no idea that I was not miserable, in fact, I was truly yearning for his warmth next to me.‘How do you know you have become a reason why I am not depressed yet.’ I thought, laying on the bed with him.My eyes stared at his handsome form. On his back, one hand on his stomach and I was holding his arm with my both hands.Looking up as if my world had begun to create around him.‘Do you feel the same too?’I was about to get lost in admiring his compelling power but it was broken when he groaned and woke up gradually. “Hey,” I whispered, unwillingly, a hint of happiness came on my face. The thought that we shared a bed for the first time gave me flutterings. My heartbeats were going out of control to find him this close.“He
Marrying Mr. Arrogant Chapter 36
How could I desire him to caress me this badly? To hold me and tell me ‘it’s okay’. What was happening to me?Shifting back, I looked down at my laps, a hint of hesitation began to take over me. When he had supported me this much then he deserved to know why I was this agonized.“Hey, you okay? Is there something… you want to speak?”There were countless things I wanted to say but it was neither time nor the moment for it. In fact what could I possibly say when you are here already?“Uh..”I should tell him why I was feeling this way, that I was in a bad need of support. I never told Jared about it but I didn’t know why, my heart was convinced to share my regret with him.“You must be thinking when I was mentally prepared for Father's death then why I was so devastated, right?”“I was but I thought it wouldn’t be the right time to ask.” He agreed, plopping on his one elbow, placing his attention to me. “I told you the one with a heavy heart refuses to come back. See, he didn’t.” I ch

I was forgetting my pain and focusing entirely on him at this point.Thanks to him I was no longer razed. I had no idea what spell he cast on me but I had left my world behind and had begun to live in his.‘Is this the point my life was searching for?’Setting the bed, I was thinking about Dariel all day, waiting for him to return, to sit beside me, to talk with me, to smile with me, to be with me.The thought alone brought a timid smile to my face. As I was immersed in his thoughts, he came at midnight as he was busy going to work after two weeks.“Hey, welcome home.” Grinning, I greeted him happily, leaving all my work in the middle and rushing to him.He looked stressed, tie loose, coat resting on his arm and ruffled hair, making him look more handsome in this messy state.Or was it my perspective? I had no idea.He paused, knitting his eyebrows together in confusion.“You.. look awfully delighted to see me.” He trailed off, rolling his eyes and shaking his head from stress.“Becau
