Billionaire’s Love From India

He nodded and went towards the lift. “Why is Emily here? What does she want from me?”

He entered his cabin. Emily stood up when she heard the sound of the door being closed. She smiled, stepping forward to hug him, but he took a step back. “Don’t try to do this. I am married.”

“I know that, and I have left the thought of being with you a long time ago.” She sat back on the chair.

Eden took his seat across her. “What are you here for?”

“I am here to request you for something.” She nervously fidgeted her fingers. “Actually, I need your help. My dad’s business is going in lose, and he is really worried about it. I wanted him to come to you, but he refused to take help from you. I can’t see him getting worried, so I came here to ask you for help because I know only you can help him.”

He smiled a little. “I have problems with you, not with your parents. Don’t worry! I will talk to your father.” Emily thanked him and left his cabin.

Lavanya was reading a novel, sitting in the living room, when someone suddenly covered her eyes from behind. She got a little scared. “Who…Who is this?”

She heard the sound of familiar laughter. She removed the hands of that person from her eyes and turned only to find Jaime standing behind her. She made her sit beside her. “You scared me. Why didn’t I get to know about you entering the mansion? From where you learned walking without the sound of taking the steps?”

“I learned it from him.” She pointed at Ray, who entered the living room. He greeted Lavanya and sat down on the sofa.

“Where is brother?” Jaime asked, looking around the house.

“He is at work as usual.” Lavanya replied, keeping the novel on the table.

She looked at Jaime and her eyes landed on Eden walking towards them with the bouquet of red roses in his hands. Jaime widened her eyes in surprise, seeing him with flowers. “Oh my god! Please tell me that I am not dreaming. My brother is bringing flowers for a girl.”

Eden frowned. “I am not bringing flowers for any girl. These are for my wife.”

He gave the bouquet to Lavanya. She kissed his cheek. “Thank you so much. Why did you come early today? I thought you would be late like daily.”

“I was missing my wife.” He held her hand, turning to Jaime. “What are you both doing here?”

Jaime got excited. “We came to share an amazing news with you.”

Lavanya and Eden looked at each other first, then Eden asked, “What’s the news?”

Jaime smiled, looking at Ray and revealed the news. “Mom and Dad agreed for our wedding.” They got a little shocked, hearing this.

Eden raised his one eyebrow. “You’re kidding with us, right?”

“What? No, Brother. I am not kidding.”

“How did they easily agree?” Lavanya asked Jaime.

“It wasn’t easy, but I assured them I will be happy with him.” Jaime smiled.

“Wow! Congratulations to both of you.” Lavanya hugged Jaime.

Eden walked to Jaime’s side. He hugged her. “So, when do you want to get married?”

“Fourteenth of next month.” Jaime announced.

“This means only one month left for the preparations.” Eden stated.

“Yes, that’s why I have decided that I will go shopping tomorrow and Brother, I will take Lavanya with me.” Jaime held her hand.

Eden ruffled her hair. “I will not stop her if she wants to go.”

Bella entered with a tray in her hands. She served coffee, and snacks to everyone. They all started enjoying the coffee while planning the wedding.

Lavanya went shopping with Jaime and Ray. After selecting the wedding gown for Jaime from Nora’s Studio, they all went to the shopping mall to buy some dresses and accessories for Jaime.

Ray was helping Jaime in selecting the dresses, with the sales assistants assisting them. Lavanya was admiring them standing in the corner of the shop when a boy stood behind her. He took out a mini knife from his pocket, went near her, and placed the knife carefully on her wrist. “Just silently walk with me, or I will cut your wrist with this knife.”

Lavanya got scared. She felt like her brain had stopped working. She looked at Ray, who was standing at a distance of only a few steps from her, still helping Jaime. She wanted to shout his name for help. The boy whispered in her ear. “Move.”

She again looked at Ray before moving out of the shop with the boy, praying inside her heart for Ray to notice her absence. The boy removed the knife from her wrist but still kept it in his hand. He held her wrist tightly.

Jaime went inside the changing room to try the dresses. Ray turned to look at Lavanya but got a little surprised when he didn’t find her there. He hurriedly stepped out of the shop and looked around. Luckily, he saw Lavanya’s back. He started following her and that boy.

The boy took Lavanya to the parking lot of the mall. Ray hides himself behind a car to keep an eye on them. The boy stopped in front of a car with Lavanya.

A man stepped out of the car, whose half face was covered with a mask. Only his eyes and forehead was visible. It was Louis. He ordered the boy. “Leave her wrist, and search for her phone in her handbag.”

The boy snatched the handbag from her and took out her phone. Louis held Lavanya from her arm tightly. She hissed in pain. A tear rolled down her cheek as she struggled to set herself free from his hold. Louis got annoyed with her struggling. “Listen girl, just obediently sit inside the car if you don’t want us to harm you.”

He was about to take her near the car when Ray came out from behind the car and hit him on the arm with his leg, setting Lavanya free. She smiled, looking at Ray.

Ray started beating Louis continuously. Lavanya wanted to call Eden. She tried to take her phone back from the boy, but the boy made a cut on her palm with the knife.

“Ahhh!” She screamed in pain. Ray left Louis and came to her.

Louis and the boy decided to run from there. The boy threw her mobile on the floor, got inside the car with Louis, and drove out of there quickly.

Blood was oozing out from the cut on Lavanya’s hand. Ray took out his handkerchief and tightly tied it onto her palm to stop the bleeding. “I will take you to the hospital.”Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

He called Jaime. She immediately answered his call. “Where did you and Lavanya go?”

He sighed. “I will tell you everything. Come to the parking lot of the mall. Leave the shopping. We will do it some other day.”

He cut the call before she could ask him something else. She reached the parking lot and saw him standing near their car. “What’s wrong, Ray? Why did you cancel our plan?”

“We have to go to the hospital. Get inside the car.” He went to sit in the driver’s seat.

Jaime was confused by his behavior. She sat in the passenger seat and looked at Lavanya, who was disturbed and scared thinking that someone attempted to kidnap her.
