Akaash POV:-
I am looking at Teja, who looks at the sunrise.
A genuine smile and relief are showing on Teja's face, which brought a smile to my lips.
It hurt me when Teja said she didn't love me.
But she is right.
But when she promised to give me a proper chance.
It gave me a huge relief and the hope I was trying to find since Teja agreed to this marriage.
I hope happy the most when Teja initiates to kiss me.
That diary told me the past of her. She tried to hide from everyone.
You know there are a lot of things Teja didn't tell anyone.
A lot of worse things, Tanish did to her.
For example, Tanish kissed her when Tanish forced her into that marriage.
Tanish got jealous of a child's father when she was looking at a naughty toddler.
Many times, Tanish raped her until she bled from her private part.
The whipping part and when Teja found out Tanish and Srishti making out on their bed was the worst.
I cursed myself for being there for her at her worst.
I cursed myself, not looking at her pain when she got married.
After her marriage, many times, we had surgeries together.
Teja wrote about me in her diary.
She wanted me to move on.
That's why she behaved rudely and professionally with me.
That dairy made me fall for her more.
How can this girl be so selfless?
She was facing so much pain and abuse, but still, she was thinking about uncle Raj, aunt Rajshree, Bubbly, Jassi, Anamika, her patients, and me.
She is that gem that is priceless.
Her heart was made of platinum, so shiny and pure.
I am lucky to have her as my fiance and soon-to-be wife.
I still do not believe that Teja is going to be mine.
After all, I had been waiting for this moment for the last 11 years.
Many times, I gave up after thinking that Teja was never going to accept me.
But look, here I am today.
I don't need any more from God.
" Here you are! We were looking for you both since morning. " Angelina said, and we smiled while looking at each other.
" Does Something happen here that we need to know? " Angelina asked, and Teja chuckled.
" Yes, mom. Today, I let go of my past willingly. " Teja confessed, and Angelina looked at Teja with shock.
That shock replaced with a wide grin, and she said, " Are you serious, Teja? "
Teja nodded, and Angelina hugged Teja.
" I am so happy for you.
Albert and I wanted you to let go of your past for the last three years.
I know now you can give Akaash a chance. " Angelina said, and Teja nodded.
" Let's go. You need to get ready for your jobs.
I will make breakfast. " Angelina said enthusiastically and left before we gave her any answer.
Teja and I looked at each other and laughed.
Then we both went to her room and saw our little bundle of joy wake up and rub his cute eyes.
" Good morning, son. " I said, tickled him on his stomach.
He laughed loudly, and Teja joined us.
" Da... Dad... ddy... S... Stwp... " Vihaan said between his laughs, and I stopped tickling him.
I love his stammer voice.
He is still learning the words.
But I love the way he is trying his best to speak properly.
Everyone says that you can love your child only.
But, after accepting Vihaan, I think those people who said this wrong.
I felt a connection with him just like Teja felt.
I love this child.
Even if Teja never gets pregnant in the future, we will have him as our child.
No one can't say that this child is not mine.
" Today, Daddy will bathe you, okay? " I said, and he clapped his hands in enthusiasm.
" Is that okay for you? " Teja asked worriedly.
" Don't worry, Teja. Have you forgotten, I am gynae?
I know how to handle him.
You can take a shower. I will bathe him in my room. " I said politely, and she nodded.
She went inside the wardrobe, and she came out in a minute and gave me Vihaan's clothes.
I took it from her and went to my room.
Vihaan and I took a bath together and played with each other.
We enjoyed our time.
Then I made him wear his clothes and wore my office clothes.
Through, I am a doctor, but we need to maintain our image too.
Especially, when you are a famous and director of your hospital.
Yes, you heard me right.
I am the director of the gynae department in our hospital.
Teja didn't take the director of the neuro department as she has other works too.
She gave that seat to our senior doctor, Mr. James White.
He is a polite doctor. But he can be very mad if you had done a single mistake in the procedures.
In our hospital, there is no one, who stops adoring Teja.
She is everyone's favorite doctor.
She may be cold with the staff, but everyone knew her true identity.
They knew what type of a personality she was.
That's the reason everyone knows there is a reason behind Teja's coldness.
Anyways, we ate our breakfast, and then we went to the hospital.
After all, we had to deal with the meeting as Teja suddenly announced our engagement.
We went to the hospital together and went to our meeting room.
We saw everyone was waiting for us there.
When they looked at us, they stood from their seat.
They started welcoming and congratulating us.
We responded to them politely.
But I saw no emotion in Teja's face.
She still thought that showing emotion made a person weak.
I sighed and sat on my seat.
Teja sat on the head seat.
Then we started our meeting, which was going to take the whole day.
We were discussing the project Teja told at the conference.
This project gonna take 3 to 5 years.
After all, we need to make the hospital first.
When we were done at 6 pm, our HR department director said, " President Smith, as your old identity revealed and you confessions and the announcement, that made our live coverage boost.
Almost 5 trillion people saw our live coverage.
The most important fact, everyone was praising you and saying bad things about your former husband, Mr. Kashyap.
Many people gave us donations, and some people invested in our new project.
Now we have 200 billion dollars.
What do we need to do with the money? "
I saw everyone's eyes wide as saucers except Teja and mine.
" We did need 10 million for this project. So,
Take 10 million from that amount.
We will use the remaining amount for those patients who didn't have any money.
After all, those people barely receive help.
We need to help them when we have such a big amount.
In the future, if we need more money, I will pay for it.
Tomorrow, I want a meeting with the accountant and the finance department.
I want every single employee of those departments.
Am I clear? " Teja said, and everyone nodded.
" Alright, meeting dismissed. " Teja announced and walked out from the room.
Everyone sighed in relief.
" This lady is so strict and dangerous when mad.
Now I understand how our hospital grew so fast. " Our neuro department director, Dr. James said.
" You are right. But there is one thing I love about her.
She may be strict and cold with everyone.
But she cares for everyone.
Her heart is pure gold. " The micro department head said.
I smiled.
" Akaash, how did you handle her all these years?
I heard lots of things about you both. " The head of the nurse department, Mrs. Jeklin asked.
" You know, she wasn't this cold when we were studying together.
But after marrying Mr. Kashyap, she became silent and conservative.
But she lost her second child and mom. She lost everything and became cold. " I replied with a sigh.
" I heard a lot of things happened to her at that time.
We knew she committed suicide.
But that part didn't reveal in front of the media, and she suddenly divorced Tanish Kashyap.
You must know the reason.
Can't you tell us? " HR Department director, Mr. Knight asked.
" I can't tell you.
Most important, don't try to bring her past again.
That was the past. I am her present and future now.
So, please excuse me! " I said and went out from the meeting room.
