Chapter-55

Aaron's pov

We both had lunch together and talked about the night party which was fun. In the mean time my phone buzzed showing that Shreya was calling.I received my phone to hear a huffing sound from the background.

"Hello Shreya," I said gaining attention of Ishaan

"Brother." She started sobbing loudly which made my heart grip in fear.

"What happened Shreya?" I asked not showing my deadly scared heart which was beating very highly.

"Brother someone kidnapped Sister in law," she said sobbing.

"What?"

"Yes brother." She cried hysterically.

Who the hell can kidnap my wife? No one in the world knows that she is my wife.

Are they rivals of Mr. Kapoor? I have to ask Karthik.

I don't know which state she is in now. I failed as a husband because I could not protect my wife.

"Ok, tell me everything which can give a clue of Shraddha."

"We both came for shopping to buy some dresses for me. I didn't like anything so Sister in law suggested that we can visit some other day. We came to the parking lot to return home but someone pushed me from backside. I fell on the ground and in the meantime they took Sister in law with them. I'm sorry brother. I couldn't help Sister in law. I am really sorry," She apologised.

"Don't worry Shreya. I will bring your sister in law safely and don't inform Mom and Dad. They will get worried," I said calming her a bit.

But inside I was having negative thoughts.

What if something happens to her?

No, no, I can't even imagine. I'll die if anything happens to her.

I have to be strong. I can't get weak in this situation.

"Shreya did you get hurt?" I asked making sure she was fine.

"Yes brother, I got a sprain in my leg," She said hissing in pain.

"Ok, I will send Mohan to you. He will take you to the doctor."

Mohan is one my trusted person and bodyguard.

I hung up the phone.

I don't know how to find her. I don't have any single clue to find her.

"What happened? Why are you not saying anything?" Ishaan asked bringing me from my thoughts.

I don't know how he will react.

"Someone kidnapped Shraddha," I said sitting on my chair with a thud.

"What?"

"Yes," I said calling Mohan to pick Shreya from the mall.

"Who is the bodyguard you kept for her?" he asked.

Damn! I forgot to ask Michael. I called him.

He was not answering my phone. After ten rings he received.

"Michael where the hell were you?" I asked barking at him.

I know I did wrong by barking at him but his duty is to protect my family.

"Sir I followed the persons who took Mam but they smartly took cars with same number plates. So I followed the fake number and in the other car they took Mam with them. I am trying find Mam's phone's location but it's showing unavailable."

"I don't know what you will do but you have to find her within 24 hours," I said and hung up the phone.

"I will call everyone in the group and they can say whether he is our enemy or Mr. Kapoor's," Ishaan said taking his phone and called everyone.

After ten minutes everyone arrived.

"I will call my assistant to know who is the person behind her kidnapping," Rajeev said calling someone.

"I will ask my friend to enquire about the incident who works in the mall," Sitara said.

But here three members were silent who were not uttering a single word.

Karthik, Divya and Riya who were silent from their arrival in my cabin.

"Karthik do you have any rivals who can make her a target?" I asked him.

"No brother-in-law. Don't worry, she will be fine," He said shrugging his shoulders.

"I hope those people who kidnapped her will not be in good shape," he muttered under his breath.

"Did you say something?" I asked him.

"Nothing," He said casually.

How can a brother sit calmly not worrying for his sister?

Maybe he is not showing his fear but from inside he is worried about her.

Divya was not even a wee bit worried about her but was eating chocolate very calmly.

What is happening here? Have I gone mad? How can people sit so calmly?

"I think She will come in forty minutes," Divya whispered to Karthik.

"No, She will come in fifty minutes," Karthik whispered to her.

What the hell is going on here?

"No, she will come in forty minutes," Divya declared.

"No, fifty," Karthik said.

"Bet?" Divya asked pointing her finger at him.

I am hell worried for her and here both of her brother and best friend are betting. I don't want to show my anger to them. I don't want to hurt them. So I'm being silent but not everyone is like me.

"Bet," he agreed.

"What the fu*king hell is happening here?" Ishaan barked at them.

Both got frightened and gulped in fear hearing his dangerous tone.

"Don't you both have any slightest fear that our loved one is kidnapped? We don't know where she is. What situation she is in? But no, you both are betting about something which we don't know," He roared at them.

Both stood there silently not uttering a word.

"Calm down Shaan.  I don't know who kidnapped her. If she is kidnapped why didn't we receive any threat call?" I asked pacing around the room.

I hope she is fine. Once I find those bastards, I won't let them live in this world.

"Exactly, we have to wait for the call," Rajeev said.

"I can't wait for them. I have to find her before it goes to our parents," I said banging my hand on the table in frustration.

It has been one hour since I haven't found any clue to find my wife.

"Don't worry brother. She will be fit and fine. She will come in forty minutes," Divya said checking her watch and snapping me out of my thoughts.

"How can you be sure it will be in forty minutes?" Karthik asked.

"I know," she said making him shut up.

"Will you both shut your damn mouths?" Ishaan said glaring at both of them.

"Ok," they both nodded in unison.

Meanwhile I forgot to ask Divya that how did she know that my wife would arrive in fixed time.

"You both know who kidnapped her?" I snapped at them.

"No," They both replied at the same time.

"But how can you both be sure that she will come in a particular time?" I asked glaring at them.

"Oh..," both stuttered but didn't answer me.

"Answer him, damn it," Ishaan sneered at them.

Both kept mum.

"Speak up damn it," I roared at them furiously.

When they were about to answer the door opened revealing Michael with a stern look on his face who glared at the person behind him.

There stood my life with a cute pout on her face and glaring at Michael.

I quickly engulfed her in a hug that no air could pass between us.

I kissed her forehead to make sure if it's a dream or reality.

It's true that my wife was standing here with a smile on her face and was hugging everyone in the room.

"Princess are you fine?" her brother asked kissing her forehead and same goes with her remaining brothers.

"I am fine Brother," She said hugging him.

Then came my three sisters who were hugging her tightly.

Then Divya popped her question which made everyone glare at her but it was unnoticed by her.

"How come you arrived in thirty minutes? I thought you will come after ten minutes. So I made bet with him. I lost it now," She said glaring at Karthik.

What's happening here?

"Oh ok, then I will come after ten minutes," My wife said chuckling at her best friend.

"No, I missed my bestie," she said making everyone smile at her.

"Me too monkey sister-in-law," Shraddha said pinching her nose.

"How come that you arrived thirty minutes early?" Karthik asked.

What's with these two? Are they not happy that my wife is safe and sound?

"Oh! I thrashed some people in car and the remaining people, I knocked them at the place where they took me," She said shrugging her shoulders.

My eyes went wide like saucers and the remaining people who were present in the room opened their mouth in an 'o' shape.

I opened my mouth to ask but Varun beat me to it.

"Sir I will explain," Michael said in admiration for my wife.

"Mike no," my wife said glaring at him.

"When did you both become that close that you started calling him Mike?" I shot my question at them.

"Today," My wife replied launching herself on her big brother's shoulder who was stroking her hair lovingly making me smile at their bond.

"Sir I didn't save Mam but she herself called me there," he replied in guilt.

"How?" Sitara popped a question.

"When I went there people who kidnapped Mam were already injured crying in pain. Mam called me with one of the goon's phone. So I reached the location on time," he said.

"How did you knock them?" Rajeev asked with a frown.

"What do you think?" She asked raising her eyebrow.

"I don't have any idea," Varun said in confusion.

Divya and my wife stood and bowed in front of us.

"We are trained in martial arts," they said making us stun in our place.

Meanwhile, Riya too joined them.

"Riya you too?" I asked.

"Yes, I joined two months back," Riya said making us frown.

I am going to have heart attack with this new shock.

"Damn! How could we not notice this?" Varun said in frustration running his hands in his hair.

"Right now I am going to have a drink. I never thought my girlfriend is more stronger than me," Ishaan said in irritated tone.

We are not mad at them for keeping it as a secret but we are shocked to know that our girls are strong enough to face the problem.

I am happy that my wife is safe and with me now.

"I want my little sister Shreya to be trained like you both," I declared settling myself on my chair.

"Sure, I would love to," Divya replied.

"So Ms. Lady beam I want you to take rest. For that we have to go to our house. Let's go," I said holding her wrist.

"Wait a minute," She said turning towards Mike and ordered, "I want you to find the person who tried to kidnap my sister-in-law."

What?

"Ok Shraddha," Mike said.

"How come you have Mike's number?"

"What do you think that I don't know who is following and observing me? I am not dumb to not notice my surroundings husband. I got his number from your phone. I remembered it. I knew I'd need it so I took it without your permission, sorry," she said with a cute smile.

"No problem."

Wow! My bodyguard started addressing my wife with her name.

"And you don't get angry on him. I only said him to call my name and one more thing, the target is not me, it's Shreya. They thought I was Shreya so they took me with them," She said answering my unasked question.

How can she read my mind?

"I can read your mind," she said smiling.

Am I that loud?

"Yes you are," Everyone said in unison.

"Mike I want you to find that person. They didn't know who gave them instructions to kidnap but they got a call from the person. I want you to track the number," She said making everyone gape at her smartness.

I never thought my innocent wife is strong, smart-headed lady beam.

"Yes I am," She said smirking.

Damn! I have to stop talking to myself.

Bidding bye to everyone we drove to our home.

I changed my night wear, lied on the bed and then came my lady beam wife wearing a night wear in which she was looking so cute.

I didn't blink my eyes because she was looking so adorable in that night wear.

"So Ms. Lady beam what are you thinking?"

"Nothing," she replied shrugging her shoulders.

"Ok, I have a doubt." I recalled something which was eating me from the start.

"Go on," she said applying lotion on her body.

"In Ishaan's party why did you not stop me when I was forcing myself on you?" I asked thinking how I behaved like a beast with her.

"Oh! I didn't want to hurt my husband with my skills and I respect you, that's why I didn't hit you," she said clearing my doubt.

"Oh!"

"If you want I can give you a punch," she smirked at me.

"I don't want to be hit by my lady beam,so no."

"How is Shreya?" I asked changing the topic.

Not wanting to be hit by my hot wife.

"She is fine, now sleeping," She said lying beside me keeping her head on my shoulder.

I kissed her forehead and she kissed my cheeks.

She slept hugging me tightly.

Day by day, I am finding new things in my wife who is mysterious to me.

I drifted to sleep thinking how this lady beam became my love life.

Thank you so much for gifting this precious girl to me. I thanked God.

After two days

These two days I had meetings lined up so I didn't get time to talk to my wife who was also involved in the new project and again she became mysterious to me.

This girl is full of surprises.

This girl is planning something secretly, talking with someone and whenever I come near her she cuts the call. She diverts me with her tactics which makes me forget what I come to ask her.

That's the effect she has on me. I forget the whole world when I am around her.

Today I don't know but I did not get any call from my friends or my sisters.

That's strange because everyday they call and irritate me that I retort to them in the same way.

I went to home to see the lights of my house were off. Is everyone here or went somewhere without informing me?

"Mom." No response.

"Shraddha." No response.

Suddenly the lights turned on and everyone stood there and yelled, "Surprise."

"Happy birthday honey," Mom said hugging me.

Today is my birthday. I forgot.

"Thank you Mom," I said kissing her cheek.

"Happy birthday my son," Dad said hugging me.

After that everyone wished me except my wife whom I was waiting for.

Only family members were present, not outsiders.

I don't like big parties, just a small one and I loved this.

I went to my room, took shower and changed my dress which was selected by my lady beam.

After that I went downstairs to see everyone was present except my wife and rolled my eyes to see her who was coming from the kitchen bringing my birthday cake looking hot in her white and silver colour bordered saree.

My wife brought my favorite cake and I knew she only prepared it.

After cutting the cake everyone wished me but not my wife.

I am so disappointed with her. I am waiting for her to wish me but no.

Then my phone pinged with a message saying, "Please come to the terrace."

When I went there I saw the biggest shock of my life........................
