I Marked Her Mine - Chapter 99
Vihaan was looking tired while sitting on his chair in his office. His eyes were red from not sleeping for the last twelve hours, his hair messed up from roaming many times hands in it, his tie loosens up at the top, his shirt rolled up to his forearm and his shoes, not in his feet.
He ġrȯȧnėd when he bends backwards and felt his muscles sore from staying in the same position. He had not gone to the Mansion after going on the “Date”, for his works were pending.
Or, he was hoping to talk to Shanaya, but not like it happen.
Shanaya took her day off!
Lying backwards on his chair, he felt heaven as soon as his back touched the leather and he forgets all his tiredness.
All he wanted was some sleep.
But, it was not in his life as it was already eight and he could hear several footsteps suggesting employee have come. .
The new day had begun and, he wanted to be present in his office for his employees.
He was not a friendly boss, but, he was the responsible one.
Even though the work of the office was tiring, he was in love with it. He was ready to go through the same hell if it meant doing work, and that too in his office.
He stretched his right arm to reach his phone, kept on the table and once it was in his hands, he opened it, to see several missed calls from Saaransh.
He had the habit of keeping the phone on ‘silent’ mood whenever he would stay in the office for the work.
“I will call him later”thinking to himself, Vihaan put the phone on ‘general’ mood and straighten himself to be back for the work.
He was busy calculating some profits when his phone rang and, he saw “Avni dee” on the screen.
Without wasting any time, he picked up the phone and spoke sleepily” Is everything okay?”
Avni rarely calls him and, it was the matter of concern for him.
At the same moment, he heard her speaking excitedly ” Did you hear it?”
Vihaan had no idea what he was supposed to hear, but judging from her voice, he knew nothing was wrong.
He felt relieved.
His family was everything to him.
Focusing back on the screen, he spoke casually, not giving much attention to her words, anymore” I have no idea what you are talking.”
“What? Saaransh did not tell you?”
“He called me, but I could not receive his call. Why? what’s the matter?”
“Oh, GOD! You won’t believe it!”
Vihaan closed his eyes impatiently. God! his sister was so dramatic.
“What is it, Dee? I am busy, tell me fast” focusing back on the screen, his mind was back to his work.
“Saaransh and Shanaya are together!”
Calculating in his mind, he replied without thinking” Okay, together in what?”
He had a lot of work to do.
He put his phone away from his ear as his ear got blasted from Avni screaming”Vihaan!”
“What!” he replied after a second.
“You are not listening to me. Stop your work for a moment!”
Withdrawing his eyes from the screen, he put his back against the chair comfortably and spoke slowly”Tell me.”
“Shanaya and Saaransha are together, as in together!”
And then it hit him.
He stutters while speaking” What..What do you mean?”
“Saaransh proposed to Shanaya and she, accepted.”
One part of his mind kept saying” It can’t be!” but, another had no idea what to do.
He did not utter a single word, the silence haunting him.
“You, there?” he heard Avni and before she could get suspicious of his behaviour he spoke hurriedly” Yes, Umm, I will talk you later, I have to go.” and hangs up the phone.
He did not wait for her to greet him he questioned her hurriedly” Where is, Ms Shanyaa?”
Puzzled, Erina took a minute to reply” Umm, I have seen her going to the presentation room, Sir.”
“Oh” murmuring to himself, he sat down comfortably.
“What were you thinking? Did you think you can confront her?” his mind spoke and, he knew it was correct.
He had no right over her. He could not stop her from doing anything she wanted.
But, it hurt him. The mere thought of his best friend with Shanaya made her want to kill Saaransh.
Shanaya was his!
“Oh, yes, and you made it clear while going on the ‘Blind dates’ and, ofcourse speaking in front of her that you wished to get married!” taunted his mind.
He was interrupted by Erina who spoke” Sir, you too have to be in the presentation room. It’s about the acquisition.”
She had promised Saaransh to be loyal to him but sitting there she doubts it. The trivial thought of seeing him was causing so many heats to erupt in her body.
She heard her heartbeats fastening when the door opened and, she felt the presence of Vihaan.
She did not need to lift her eyes to know, her heart, knew the presence very well.
Shanaya could not gather the courage to lift her gaze even when she could feel Vihaan’s eyes fixed on her.
And, not to forget the anger in his eyes.
She passed the entire duration while avoiding her eyes from him or looking down at nowhere.
She had promised to be loyal and, she knew this could be achieved only by not looking at Vihaan.
“Wow! what a way to keep your promise!’ taunted her heart, but she did not give a damn.
Shanaya vowed, not to think anything from her heart anymore, she had given the reign to her mind.
The meeting was about to end when she heard Vihaan speaking authoritatively” What’s mine remains mine!’ and felt his gaze on her.
Shanaya felt her heart reacting on his words by pounding.
She knew the words were for her.
Looking at her from his seat, Vihaan had killed two shoots by a single arrow. He had spoken them for the business deal, but he had also spoken them for Shanaya to hear.
