Chereads / His Indian Bride / Chapter 20 - “No, not a chance!”

Chapter 20 - “No, not a chance!”

Vaidehi let out a gasp seeing the man in front of her.

Curly hair, hazel eyes with a wicket crooked smile. He was the same creepy pasta–Vaidehi saw at the airport.

"And we met again, pretty lady." The creepy man said with an extra creepy smile.

"Oh, you know her?" Harsh asked looking curiously between Vaidehi and that creepy man.

"Oh, yes. I know this pretty lady. But sadly I don't know her name." He said and fake a pout.

Rithika let laugh and looked at Vaidehi, who was still in a state of shock.

"God, you are so dramatic, Rishab. Anyway, Rishab ,meet Vaidehi my wife best friend" Harsh introduced both of them.

"And Vaidehi, this is Rishab my distant cousin." Harsh said looking at Vaidehi.

Oh , so this creepy pasta has a name? She though to her self.Everyone does, miss smartypants. She subconscious mind mocked.

She rolled her eyes and ignored her super irritating inner voice and gave Harsh and Creep– I mean Rishab an awkward smile.

"Are you guys going to stand here all night!?" Rithika said and glared at her husband , who gave her a nervous laugh,"Yes,Aarav. I am coming!"

"Aarav is calling me, I will just come."He mummers something to himself,and without turning or looking at his wife, ran away toward Aarav room as if his butt was on fire.

Rithika shook her head at his antics and walk toward kitchen, leaving Vaidehi and Rishab alone.

"Pretty lady has a pretty name , eh?" He said cheekily.

Vaidehi gulped as he came and stood next to her.

"I–I need to see if Rithika needs my help." Vaidehi stuttered as Rishab stood too close for her liking.

"What's the hurry, swwetheart?We just met, come sit and give me company." He smiles wickedly as his eyes ranked down Vaidehi's figure.

Vaidehi groaned inwardly and prayed to God,so that she don't end up kicking him where sun doesn't shine.

She let out a frustrating sigh and glared at him,"Listen her Mr. Rishab, get one think straight in that peanut size brain of your–don't mess with me. You're Harsh jiju's(brother-in-law) cousin that why I am tolaterating you're nonsensical behavior!Stay away from me because you're making me uncomfortable!"

Vaidehi glared at him one last time and walked toward her room.

Entering inside she let out a sigh of relief.

It was one hell of a day.

Somewhere in Paris.

Damien stood near the balcony of his room with a glass of wine on his hand.

He took a sip and sighed looking at the beautiful view of Eiffel tower.

They saw Paris is the most romantic destination for couples. But he felt numb and empty looking at every around him.

He kept the glass and dialed a number.

With every ring, he felt a nervousness bubbling within him.

"Hello?"

Damien gulped and tried to reply but his voice struck inside his throat.

"Hello? Who is it?"

"Hel–Hello. I–its me Dami–" Before he could complete his sentence, call was cut.

He smiled bitterly looking at the phone on his hand and a lone tear role down his cheeks

Shaking his head , he went on his bed with his laptop to work all night.

Nightmare–his best friend, will surely pay him a visit tonight.

"Lilly!" Damien woke up panting and sweating.

Trying to calm his breath, he drank water.

He didn't knew when he fell asleep last night. The more he tries to run, the more vivid his nightmares get.

He sighed and dragged his body to washroom for shower.

Coming out of washroom and dressing himself, Damien dialed Ashton's number.

"Good morning, Frong face. Slept well?" His best friend's annoying voice bloomed throw speaker.

Damien rolled his eyes,"Good morning to you to, buttface. Did you do ,what I told you to do? You didn't right? Send me all the designs by today. Deal is almost finalised just I have to show them few more samples, which you asshole–was suppose to send me!"

Damien glared at his phone as if it was Ashton.

"Don't worry babe, I will make sure that you get want you want." Ashton tried to mimic a high pitch girly voice and flirted.

"Stop with your jokes ,Idiot! And do that now! I have meeting with them today."

"Yes,boss!Anything else that, his highness wants me to do?How about coming there and feed you some grapes and singing you lullaby before sleeps sounds?" Ashton said sarcastically.

"Yes, now his highness would want your lazy ass to go to office and do the incomplete work! Get lost asshole!" Damien gritted his teeth in annoyance and was about to cat the call.

"Wait, wait. I have to tell you something. Today we had taken the final interview to select your PA." Ashton said in excitement.

"Oh great." Damien rolled his eyes at his best friends excitement.

"Dude, she is awesome and perfect for this post!" He said and squealed like a high school girl, Damien winced and removed the phone from his ear.

"First of all stop squealing like an idiot that you are and second of all, DIDN'T I TELL YOU TO NOT TO APPOINT AND FEMALE AS MY PA!? We are already suffering for what previous one did!"

"Just shut up idiot! She is awesome and she deserves to be here! You should have been here than ,while we where selecting your PA! Now be a good boy and don't throw tantrums because that's my job not your." Ashton said in a teasing tone.

Damien glares at the wall and nodded, realised that he cannot see him, he replied with a faint yes.

"Come on,Damien you can't just sat that about her. Just because one did what she did, you can't blame the whole female species for that, can you?" Ashton sounded serious this time

"Yes. But still we should be careful about it." He tried to argue.

"Shut up and listen to me, arrogant buffon! We took two interview before appointing her. And we did a background check as well. She is the best we got! Now shut that noisy complain ass of your and finish your meeting!" Damien could feel Ashton's glare though his phone.

"Yes, I–"He clear his throat.

"And if I may add she is kinda hot." Ashton said teasingly.

"Get lost!"

"No, not a chance!"Ashton giggles like a school girl.

"I am going, I need attend a meeting!" He said in annoyance.

"Seee yaaa,Dami dumm. Miss me baby!" Ashton said in a high pitch girl voice.

"Stop annoying me early in the morning,Buttface!"

"Annoying you is my birth right so, shut up! Come one soon honey poo, I am waiting." He could feel Ashton batting his eyes like a girl with a pout and that made him chuckle.

Only his best friend can change sense his mood. He know that Ashton is doing this just to distract him.

"And Damien,take care of yourself." He heard Ashton say in a serious tone.

He replied with a faint yes before cutting the call.

He looked toward the view of beautiful Paris and sipped his coffee unaware of the storm that is waiting for him in NYC.
