Billionaire’s Love From India

Lavanya touched the hands of that person to recognize that person while Eden turned around to look at the person who covered Lavanya’s eyes only to find a girl standing behind Lavanya with a huge smile on her face.

“Who is this?” Lavanya asked when she failed to recognize the person.

“You got really changed after coming to London that you can’t even recognize my touch now.” The girl removed her hands from her eyes.

Lavanya turned to look at that girl and got surprised. “Shreya.”

She hugged Shreya tightly. It felt like two sisters meeting each other after years. She pulled away from the hug and asked her, “How are you?”

“I am fine!” Shreya replied happily.

She noticed Shreya’s look carefully. “Tumne Shaadi Karli(You got married)?”

Shreya happily nodded her head and held the hand of the man standing beside her. “He is my husband, Abhir, and Abhir, She is my best friend, Lavanya.”

“I have heard a lot about you. It’s great to meet you.” Abhir said with a smile.

Shreya’s eyes fell on Eden, who was standing beside Lavanya, witnessing everything silently. “Who is he, Lavanya? Your Boyfriend?”

Lavanya smiled, holding Eden’s hand. “Shreya, meet Eden, My Husband.”

Shreya was surprised. “You also got married?”

Lavanya nodded. “No wonder why didn’t you come back to India? You know how much I missed you when you didn’t come back as you promised me. You also missed my wedding.”

“I am sorry.” Lavanya hugged her from the side. They were talking about India and their families while Eden was observing Shreya’s after-wedding look and Lavanya’s after-wedding look.

Shreya was wearing white and red bangles in her hands. She had henna on her hands. A necklace made of black beads with a gold pendant was tied around her neck, and she was wearing vermillion in the partition of her hair, whereas Lavanya wasn’t wearing any of these things.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

He moved his eyes away from Shreya when he heard her say, “We have lots of things to share with each other. Why don’t we all meet up for dinner?”

“It’s a great idea. Let’s go for dinner together soon.” Abhir said. Lavanya and Eden also agreed. Shreya took Lavanya’s phone number from her.

“Okay, girl, I will meet you on dinner night.” Shreya hugged her and went away after saying goodbye to Eden.

“She is not changed at all, even after marriage.” Lavanya shook her head.

“Why her after-wedding look is different from your look?” Eden questioned her.

“What?”

“She has henna on her hands. She is wearing red and white bangles in her hands, a black bead necklace around her neck, and vermillion. Why aren’t you wearing all this?” He asked, looking at her.

She placed her hand on his shoulder. “It’s because she got married at an Indian wedding. The things she is wearing are all part of the rituals of Indian weddings. Understood.” He nodded in understanding and determined that he would get married at an Indian wedding with Lavanya.

They enjoyed their entire day at Disneyland. They witnessed the Disneyland Parade. Lavanya took lots of pictures with her favorite Disney princesses and characters. She also bought lots of Disney Themed clothes, t-shirts and hoodies for both of them, and stuffed toys. They slumped down on the bed of their hotel as they both were tired.

For the next three days, they explored more places around Paris and enjoyed a couple party at the hotel.

Lavanya smiled with her eyes still closed. She stretched out her hand to touch Eden, but the bedside was empty. She opened her eyes quickly. “Where did he go?”

She stepped out of bed to look for him. She went to the balcony and found him standing there, drinking a cup of black coffee while enjoying the view of the Eiffel Tower, which was covered in snow.

She hugged him from behind. “Why did you woke up so early?”

“I had a dream about my parents. I wasn’t able to sleep after that.” He said, taking a sip of his coffee.

“What was your dream about?” She stood beside him to face him.

“I saw that they’re present at our wedding, and both are looking very happy, especially mom. She said that I had fulfilled all her dreams. They blessed us for a happy married life.” He smiled, telling her about his dream.

She touched his cheek. “They blessed us. This means they like me.”

He moved closer to her. “I think they love you just like me.”

She smacked his arm. “I want to pay a visit to mom and dad.”

He wanted to say no but agreed when he looked into her eyes. Something in her eyes assured him that everything would be fine. He had never visited his parents because it reminded him of his darkest past when he was left alone in this world, but this time he wanted to visit them because he wasn’t alone anymore. He had Lavanya by his side.

“Where are we going today?” She asked to change the topic when she saw the pain of his past in his eyes.

“We are not going anywhere today. We are going to rest today, and I think you’re forgetting. Your friend invited us for dinner tonight.” He reminded her while walking inside the room.

She followed him. “Yeah, I forgot about it.”

He gave her a cup of coffee. “I am here to remind you of everything.”

They spent the entire day cuddling with each other until it was time to get ready for dinner. Lavanya selected a gray color woolen dress with black woolen leggings.

They reached the restaurant selected by Shreya. Lavanya looked around and found Shreya sitting near a window-side table with Abhir. They went to that table.

Shreya and Abhir stood up when they saw Lavanya and Eden. Lavanya hugged Shreya. “Hope we didn’t make you wait for too long.”

Shreya pulled away from the hug. “No, you didn’t.”

Eden pulled out a chair for Lavanya and took his seat beside her after confirming that she was comfortable.

“Let’s place the order first.” Shreya passed the menu to Lavanya.

When they were done placing the orders, Shreya said to Lavanya, “Tell me about your love story with Eden. I have been eagerly waiting to know about it.”

Lavanya got a little uncomfortable because the beginning of their relationship wasn’t a happy part of their life that could be easily shared with anyone. She can’t tell Shreya that it’s because of her Grandfather that she was forced to stay with Eden, and she didn’t love him at that time.

Eden also understood this because in the beginning, he had forced Lavanya to stay with him, and she too stayed with him for Daksh, so he stayed silent and decided to let Lavanya handle this as she better knows what to tell in front of her best friend.
