Armaan's POV:

Stepping out of my car I walked inside Goel Mansion, maids took my blazer and watch while I entered the living room. "Hey... brother welcome back..." Aditya side hugged me. Aditya Goel youngest son of the Goel family, Aadesh Goel eldest son of the Goel family and, Armaan Goel middle child of the family but the most handsome and loving man alive on this planet. Some people call me arrogant so I use it as my middle name, "Who was that girl who stuffed lettuce in your mouth?" Aditya chuckled mentioning the incident that happened at the restaurant and some people recorded it saying cute couple fights as they didn't know me but using our media resources we buried the news and got rid of the video deleting it from the internet.

The media doesn't post any news without taking our permission so yeah being rich has its perks. "Daughter of that son of a bitch Rajkund Mehra, she chewed my brain the man who will marry her will cry rest of his life," I mentioned and he cackled in response walking to the dinner table where my mother was chopping dry fruits. "Oh my god, when did you come... your assistant didn't mention me. Good you came I was just asking Rizwan to make your favorite sabudane ki kheer with dry fruits... come sit..." she pats the chair next to her. (a sweet dish with sago )

Nayantara Goel and Abhimanyu Goel, my lovely parents raised us with love and care. They are the idle couple I want to be in my next life because in this one I won't be able to find a wife like my mother. After all, she's the only piece of heaven on earth. "I think his stomach is full after eating lettuce..." Aditya mentioned while chuckling. "What do you mean?" she knits her brows looking between us. "Nothing... he just forgot to take his medicines..." glaring at Aditya I muttered and took a piece of cashew nut from the plate. Mom slapped my hands, "Did you wash your hands? Your twenty-four Armaan for god's sake... go wash your hands then come and eat... and you little raccoon spill whatever you know..." she pointed the knife at Aditya, and he gulped passing his phone playing the video.

Getting inside my room I took a shower and changed into casuals, picking up my phone from the nightstand I saw a text from, Rishabh my assistant a good friend. "Ishita Mehra is in India sighing a deal with the MLA's son Siddhartha Khurana." this girl will get herself in trouble and why should I care. I texted him back, "Send her an invitation for a meeting in my office..." I will just make her aware of the danger she's walking into the rest is her choice.

The next day in my office, Aadesh called me to inform me about the upcoming election for the Chief Minister his five years term is over. Talking on the phone I heard Rishabh informing me about Ms. Mehra's arrival. Gesturing to him to let her inside I walked around the room telling him my ideas when he suggested I do some charity under our family name to maintain the hype.

Sitting on the leather chair I kept listening to his ideas when a goddess in a white salwar suit with mirror work and chandelier earrings stepped inside. She flipped her hair back adjusting her dupatta while my eyes trailed down on her body till her white pearl scandals then back at the small bead bindi on her forehead. 

Her deep hazel eyes were throwing daggers at me but looking down at her red-painted pout lips I gasped. "What happened Armaan?" Aadesh called my name and thankfully before she looked up at me. "Nothing bade Bhai... I will inform you when everything will be arranged... okay bye..." (Big Brother).

Ishita knits her brows, "What!" even I don't know what happened she was looking so gracious in the salwar suit that I forgot she looked hot in her business attire. "You look like a ghost of TV serials wearing all white. But why are you dressed like this is was supposed to be a professional meeting," and now I'm getting distracted. "Close your eyes if my attire is provoking you because I will wear what I want and, to be honest, it was very unprofessional of you to inform me about the meeting an hour before the meeting itself." she would have looked more beautiful if she never opened her mouth.

"Fine... and just stop doing that." she was continuously adjusting her dupatta which was making the sound of clinking bangles that she wore. "This got stuck and tangled with my hair... it's itching..." she made a sad pout, it was enough to touch the edge of my heart melting me like wax. Standing up from my seat I walked behind her, she was confused at first then titled her head to give me more space.

My fingers trailed her neck while removing hair from her neck and touching the shoulder where a pin was stuck with her hair, dupatta, and suit. Trying to pull the pin out with one hand in was scaring me what if it digs in her skin, she will burn me alive. Lowering my head I placed my hand on her shoulder and tried to pull the pin out with my teeth while this process her enchanting scents filled my nostrils and her warm ivory skin was blinding me with lust. When my teeth touch her skin a bit she shuddered and a soft voice escaped her mouth more like a moan.

The golden pin came out making fall her dupatta and her hair got untangled as well. Glancing at her deep hazel eyes I was sure that it wasn't only me drowning in desires she was looking at me with the same intensity of desire but mixed with confusion. "You... it was pinned upside down so I used my teeth or it would have dug in your skin..." giving the pin back I avoided her eyes sitting back on my chair.

"Thank you..." she spoke in a dry cracked voice. Passing her my glass of water she shook her head in 'no', "It's my fast today... I can't have it but thank you...". I looked up at her face scolding myself for what the hell just happened. She turned my anger and frustration into cold still water, how did she do that? Only drugs ever do that to me when I was in college then my father got to know about it and peeled my skin but she's a walking dose of cocaine. And most surprisingly a girl who lived in London believed in fasting and all.

"You called me for what?" she asked as confused as I. Getting myself together I explained to her in my rare calm voice, "At the restaurant, I was testing your reality to see whether you had true intentions to help others or you want to make yourself rich. If you have agreed to double the price and share the profit I would have kicked you out of that restaurant. But as you proved yourself I'm ready to invest in your pharmaceutical business but I need some help from you. My brother is going to stand in the election so I want some campaigns to run under his and our family name." she listened to me attentively but didn't look convinced.

"I have already asked Siddhartha Kurana to invest in this business and he has agreed under no conditions. So, I think it's already late and won't sell the rest of the shares because I still need to be the controller of the company..." she confidently announced her achievement. Something came out of my mouth that I never thought will be, "If he hasn't tried yet to get in bed with you then he surely will. And trust me when I say this half of the businesswomen are either under their husband's control or sleep around for deals." she looked at me in shock.

"Why would you say that? I have met many self-made businesswomen you can't say something like this unless you have done things like this and why would someone do that?" she was so innocent, only studying business in college doesn't give complete knowledge about the business you need to work on the grounds. "Why do people have sex? Obviously for pleasure and yes I have seen women like that make many deals with them" my words made her face turn pale she looked hurt and devastated. Maybe I shouldn't have said it... but why... she... looks... hurt... perhaps they have a family issue since her father is having an affair outside of business. 

"It's just my suggestion and I'm up to signing the deal with you else the choice is all yours I won't be stopping you to make deals with Siddhartha and why should I? Think about it and let me know if you want to move the deal further or I quit it right here so you don't have any problem in near future regarding this..." clarifying my every single word she nodded in response and stood to leave but stopped in the middle and turned to face me, "You knew right I was going to make deal with Siddhartha that's why you rushed to meet me....". She's a silent killer and not at all innocent, "If you know then you know well..." she smirked and left. I was astonished at how she read every expression on my face and when I instantly replied about signing the deal with Siddhartha Kurrana she knew that I knew it before. I'm not an open book but she can read me.
