Chereads / The perfect obsession / Chapter 17 - 17-Cherry

Chapter 17 - 17-Cherry

After replying to the email, Ananya closed the recruitment portal that she had been browsing in a good mood. She also ordered supper for herself and opened a bottle of wine. When she came out of the shower, the doorbell rang. Ananya thought that it was the food delivery and opened the door while drying her hair. Raj—who was standing outside the door—glanced at Ananya's clothes and a hint of shock flashed across his angry face.

Ananya took a step back and tightened the belt of her bathrobe.

Why was Raj here?

Raj looked at Ananya—wrapped under the bathrobe—and could not help but frown. "You're going to open the door in this? Ananya, why are you getting so bold?"

Not only did she dare to block him, but she also dared to resign? Who did she think she was?

"Ananya, even if I don't acknowledge you as my fiancée, there's no need for you to threaten me with resignation." Raj suddenly saw the hickeys on Ananya's neck. "What is this?" Raj was not a three-year-old child. He only felt his blood boiling. "Ananya! Explain it to me!" He had left such hickeys on Meera's body countless times, so he naturally knew what the hickeys on Ananya's body represented. He felt proud and complacent that there were hickeys left by him on Meera's body, but now that he saw the hickeys on Ananya's body, Raj felt that they were very glaring.

Ananya lowered her head to take a look. When she realized what Raj was talking about, she spread her hands frankly. "State your purpose. Otherwise, leave."

Raj pushed Ananya away. "Ananya, how dare you. You actually dared to make me a cuckold. You're finished! When I find that man, I'll definitely kill him!"

Ananya stood by the entrance and watched as Raj walked around haphazardly. He even went behind the curtains and inside the cabinet. She looked at him with mirth. Coincidentally, the food delivery arrived. Ananya sat at the dining table and ate. She even poured herself a glass of wine.

Raj searched for a long time but could not find anyone. He was so angry that his chest was about to explode. "Ananya! Don't forget that you're still engaged to me! You're indeed as Meerasaid—a promiscuous woman who doesn't know etiquette, integrity, and shame!"

Ananya snorted. "Did Meera teach you what etiquette is while banging you?"

Raj was pierced by Ananya's gaze. In the end, he clenched his jaw and said, "Isn't it normal for men to fool around? But women can't. Women who fool around are loose. You're the young lady of the Sharma family after all. Do you know the consequences of fooling around with men?!"

Ananya instantly lost her appetite. She did not want to listen to Raj's disgusting and warped logic anymore, and went straight to the bedroom to change. Raj was still furious when he picked up Meera's call. He turned around and saw that Ananya had changed and was about to go out. He could not help but frown and say, "Ananya, where are you going so late at night? Can't you have some shame? Are you so desperate for men?!"

Ananya said, "Wouldn't you know if I lack men? Why? You're allowed to f*ck a prostitute, but I'm not allowed to solicit men?!"

Raj's eyes narrowed. "Who the f*ck are you calling a prostitute?!" Even at this point, he did not forget to defend Meera.

Ananya suppressed her frustration. Through the reflection in the elevator, she saw the hickeys on her neck. She was so confused by Raj's anger she actually went out wearing low-collared clothes. However, when she thought about how these hickeys were imprinted by Arjun, she felt an immense sense of satisfaction knowing that she had exacted revenge on Raj. Everyone dismissed her as a harmless kitten, but they did not expect that a harmless kitten would extend its sharp claws one day.

When the elevator arrived, Ananya ignored Raj—who was mad as h*ll— and went downstairs to her car. Coincidentally, her good friend—Cherry—called. "Ananya, are you asleep? Care for a drink?" Cherry—who had just returned to the country tonight—was a woman with a rich nightlife.

"You're here?" Ananya started the car and thought that it would be good to go out for a drink. She had wanted to celebrate her promotion at home—but her good mood was ruined by Raj, so she decided to go somewhere else.

"I just got off the plane. How did you deal with that b*tch, Meera? She actually dared to hook up with Raj behind your back. Did she forget that her schooling was funded by the Sharma family? If I were you, I would definitely tear her face apart!"Cherry had a fiery temper and said whatever she wanted. When Ananya found out two weeks ago that Raj had an affair, she immediately told Cherry about it.

Cherry had been overseas then. She was so angry that she lambasted over the phone. Cherry would have dissed the adulterous Raj and Meera on her Whatsapp Moments the moment she found out about it if Ananya had not dissuaded her.
