Billionaire’s Love From India

“Ray.” Eden called him, breaking his trance. Ray turned his attention to him. “Yes, Sir.”

“Tell me what do you want to say?”

“I wanted to discuss something with you. It’s not that important. We will talk about it later. You can enjoy your family time.” Ray said and left before Eden could stop him.

“What happened to him?” Jaime asked, and Lavanya tried to suppress her laughter, looking at Jaime. Even Lavanya wasn’t an expert in such matters, but staying with Eden has made her experience this thing of how a person behaves around the person whom he or she loves.

“I will ask him later what he wanted to say?” Eden said, looking at Jaime.

“By the way, I am really happy for you Brother. This year, you will attend Our Family Annual Ball with a beautiful and gorgeous partner by your side.” Jaime looked at both of them with a smile.

“Oh, God!”

“What happened, Brother?”

“I totally forgot about the Annual Ball. It’s just three days left in it.” He said, and Lavanya looked at him in confusion.

“It’s October. The month of our Annual Ball. How can you forget about such an important event?” Jaime asked. They both were looking a little worried.

“It’s just an Annual Ball. What are you both worried about?” Lavanya asked in confusion.

“You.” Eden, and Jaime, both said in unison.

Lavanya pointed at herself and asked, “About me?”

Eden faced her and said, “You’re going to attend the Ball with me and there will be lots of people from high class society and our business associates.”

“So, I think there is nothing to be worried about.” Lavanya said and smiled.

“No, there are lots of things. First, we have to choose an amazing dress for you. Second, you have to learn the Waltz Dance in just three days.” Lavanya smiled hearing this. “And third, which is most important.” He said while Jaime was looking at both of them without disturbing them.

“What is it?” Lavanya asked, biting her lower lip.

“We both are going to make our first appearance together in front of the media which will make our relationship public.” He said, and Lavanya widened her eyes. “I don’t need unwanted attention.”

“I know that Lavanya and I have tried my best to keep the media and paparazzi away from you, but you have to face it one day.” He held her hands. “This will also be an announcement that you’re my Fiancée because I haven’t attended this Annual Ball with any girl before.”

“Fiancée? We aren’t engaged yet.”

“I am going to marry you sooner or later.” Eden said and She shook her head. “There is lots of time in it. I have to complete my studies first.”

“I am ready to wait but you’re my Fiancée. Accept it.” Lavanya didn’t reply. Jaime smiled looking at her and said, “All the girls there will be jealous of you, Lavanya.”

“I am nervous about the media.” Lavanya said, biting her lower lip.

“I am nervous about everything.” Eden said and sighed.

Later, Jaime left, and Eden called Ray.

“What did you want to discuss with me?” Eden asked, taking Lavanya’s hand in his.

“Can we discuss it in private?” Ray asked, looking at Lavanya.

“Okay.” He turned to Lavanya, “Wait for me.”

They walked out of the room, and Eden asked him, “What do you want to discuss?”

“It’s about the boy who tried to molest Miss Lavanya.” Ray said, looking down.

Eden’s expression darkened hearing this and he asked, “What about him?”

“I think he belongs to a powerful family because we tried to ask some students in the college about this and they said that no one knows anything about this matter.” Ray looked at his face.

“They’re trying to hide him. Don’t worry, I will look into it. No one can easily get away after hurting my Lavanya.” Eden was about to go inside but Ray stopped him and said, “There’s one more thing I need to discuss with you.”

“What?”

“I don’t know how but the media got to know about your relationship with Miss Lavanya and there are also spreading some rumours about both of you.” Ray said, retrieving his phone from the pocket and gave it to Eden. “Look at this.”

Eden took the phone and read the rumoured news article about him and Lavanya which read, “Mr. Eden Richards secretly married his lady love.”

There was another news article. “Who is Mrs. Richards?”

He gave the phone back to Ray. “From where they got to know about her?”

“I think they saw you with her when you were out together.” Ray said.

“I instructed you to secretly follow us that day, and keep your sharp eyes around our surroundings and the people around us.” He sighed. “Anyways, don’t worry about this all now. Soon, I am going to make my relationship public with Lavanya. Just make sure of her safety after that.” Eden Instructed.

“I will, Sir.”

Eden went inside the living to spend time with Lavanya.

Next day, Lavanya came out of her college after attending her classes with Ray and got inside the car. The driver started driving. She looked at Ray, who was sitting on the passenger seat and remembered how he was looking at Jaime.

She decided to ask him about it and called him.

“Ray.” He looked at her and asked, “Do you need something, Miss Lavanya?”

“I wanted to talk to you about something.”

“Yes, Miss. Lavanya.”

“Do you like Jaime?” She asked and He widened his eyes.

“It…It’s noth…nothing like that.”

“Really, don’t lie to me. I noticed how you were looking at her yesterday. Come on.” She said but He was still silent.

“I will not tell Eden or anyone. I promise.”

He sighed and said, “Yes, I like her.”

She smiled and looked out. After a few minutes, the car stopped in front of a famous fashion studio and Lavanya looked at Ray. “Why are we here?”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
