Chapter 24

Abhimaan's pov

I've been consumed by work, meetings, and projects.

I've set my men to keep tabs on prajakta.

They report her every move, report back to me. Her rejection still burns within me

She thinks she can reject me? The Abhimaan Khurana?

The more she resists, the more I wanted her to submit.

No one defies me.

She'll suffer for rejecting me.

that day my blood boiled when I watched one of the employees, laughing and talking with her. The sight made my blood boil.

I called the manager, told him to come to my cabin"What's going on here? Can't you see what's happening in the office? do you want me to leave all my work and do your work.and see the employees are working or not"

"Tell that boy if next time he'll talk with anyone in the office hours urs, he'll be fired. And you'll be next if you can't keep your employees in check!""

Days passed

Sarah's birthday.

My little princess.

My childhood was not very memorable it was worst phase of our life, but when Sarah' was born her tiny Lil hand and smiling face made me forget everything. As mom said she light up our lives."

I couldn't miss my little sister Sarah's birthday for the world. I took the day off work and rushed to my parents' house at midnight, eager to surprise her.I left the office early, arriving at my parents' house before 12

As I reached my parents' house at 12, Mom hugged me with warm smiles.

"Ready?" I whispered, and together we knocked on Sarah's door.

She opened it, half-asleep, confusion etched on her face.

"Happy birthday, princess!" we chimed in unison.

Then her eyes widened.

"Happy birthday, princes!"

Sarah's face lit up.

I smiled, feeling a surge of love and protectiveness. She is more than anything; she was my reason to smile, my escape from the traumas of my childhood. Her tiny hands and infectious laughter had a way of making me forget everything. Her presence had healed me in ways I never thought possible.

---

As we cut the cake, She threw her arms around me her eyes sparkled. "missed you so much, bhai. I'm so glad you're home, bhai. I don't want you to leave today.Stay with us today?."

I stroked her hair.

"Of course, princess. I'm not going anywhere."

"I love you" she she shouted

"Girl you will make me deaf one day". I Said.

Mom laughed at us

"Ok. Now sleep it's already very late mom said."

With that we go back to our room.

Later that morning, Mom and Sarah dragged me to the temple, Mom and Sarah wanted me to accompany them to the temple, and they wouldn't take no for an answer.

using their signature emotional blackmail. I relented, but stayed outside with the car, watching as they disappeared into the temple.

As they disappeared into the temple, I breathed a sigh of relief.

Time passed I checked my watch,

But my thoughts were interrupted by a tiny tyrant.

Sarah.

She emerged from the temple, a mischievous grin spreading across her face.Sarah knew exactly how to push my buttons.

"Bhai,,, we'll watch Barbie after going home"

I rolled my eyes

"You know I hate that."

"It's my birthday, and you have to do everything I want."she giggled

I raised an eyebrow.

"You're exploiting your birthday privileges."

Sarah nodded.

"Totally."

"Fine"

She made me watch Barbie, despite knowing I hated it.

"Bhai, where's my gift?" she asked, her eyes sparkling with anticipation.

"Where's my gift?"she asked again

No one would tell her.

She turned to me,.

"did you get me a gift?"

. "You wanted me to spend time with you no?? "That's what your gift is.., . What more do you want?"I teased

She pouted, stamping her foot. "But I want something else."

Sarah's face fell.

"Sorry, i didn't bought anything," I added,

She stomped her feet the ground

Authors pov:

Night descended, casting a magical spell over the party. The lights twinkled, and the music pulsed with an infectious energy. Abhimaan stood before Sarah,

And led her outside.

"Close your eyes," Abhimaan said

Sarah obeyed, her face alight with excitement.

"Open them," Abhimaan said,

Before her stood the Bugatti La Voiture Noire, ..

"Mine?" Sarah breathed, her eyes wide with awe.

Abhimaan nodded, a smile spreading across his face.

she let out a deafening scream of happiness.

"OH MY GOD,!" she exclaimed, flinging herself into Abhimaan's arms.

Sarah hugged Abhimaan tightly.

"THANK YOU !THANK YOU!THANK YOU!THANK YOUUUUUUU!" she said screaming

"I love you, !" she exclaimed.

As they hugged, their parents watched, beaming with happiness.

"We have another surprise," their father announced, a twinkle in his eye.

"A farm house in Paris, Sarah. It's yours."they gave her the papers

Sarah's jaw dropped.

"Yes princess," her mother said, smiling.

"This is the best birthday ever!" she exclaimed.

Abhimaan chuckled,

"My princess turns 18. It's meant to be special,." Her father said

_____________

At the lavish party filled with close friends, family, and business partners, Abhimaan's eyes scanned the room in search of someone - Prajakta. He spotted her entering the party, looking nervous as always. She was talking to Sarrah, and he stood in a corner, sipping his drink.

Suddenly,a hand patted his shoulder, and he turned to see his father standing there.

"Are you in love with her?" his father asked.

Abhimaan scoffed, "Love? Bullshit."

His father simply replied, "Whatever makes you sleep at night."

His father then revealed how he had called Prajakta's father to reconsider the marriage proposal. However, Prajakta's father was adamant that she did not want to marry.

Flashback:

His father then revealed how he had called Prajakta's father to reconsider the marriage proposal.

"But she's going to be the daughter-in-law of India's and the world's richest business tycoons," Abhimaan's father pressed. What else could they possibly want?

Prajakta's father's voice remained firm. "Not everyone values wealth above all else. We won't force our daughter against her will. Money isn't everything."

Abhimaan's father sneered. "You're making a mistake. This alliance will secure your family's future."

Prajakta's father stood tall, his self-respect unwavering. "We don't need your condescension. You can't dictate our decisions. Our daughter's happiness is paramount.And you can't force us like that."

Believe me, I'm not forcing you," mr khurana said, "But if I had wanted to, I could have done so already. I'm choosing not to, for now."

"Okay, then .I'll leave now, but I suggest you reconsider your decision. It would be beneficial for you.' and Keep this meeting between us. I wouldn't want anyone to know about this."

Flashback ends

Abhimaan's anger towards Prajakta grew as he remembered how she had rejected him in the past and was then talking to someone he despised at the office.

He vowed never to forgive her.

In his mind, he thought, "Just because I have been patient with her, she thinks she can test my patience. She will regret this."

Abhimaan's father paused, his gaze piercing. "You may not consider me as your father in this matter, but you can't deny the fact: if you want her, she'll be yours."

His voice dropped to a low, deliberate tone. "I don't want to play with that girl's life, but I'm your father. You asked me for something, and I'm doing this for you."
