"Fancy seeing you here, Anika!"

Anika stopped abruptly and turn to look at the person. Shivaay looked at Anika who stopped suddenly and turned to look at her. He saw a man in his late 20s is standing there with a creepy smirk on his lips.

He noticed the shock on Anika's face after looking at the man. Anika clutched Shivaay's hand tightly as she doesn't want to face her horrible ex-boyfriend alone. Anika noticed Shivaay's confusion so she bent a little towards his ear and whispered, "Rahul Dixit, My ex-boyfriend. " Shivaay's eyes widened in realisation.

"I never expected that I'll see you here, as someone's wife. " Rahul said with a straight face, glancing at Shivaay.

"Wow! Even I didn't expected you to be here. I didn't knew that my in-laws are interested in charity and they invite beggars also or better say bankrupted people." Anika said with a smirk. All the colors paled from Rahul's face. He glared at Anika angrily.

"YOU.... " Rahul angrily lunged towards Anika. Before he could reach her, Shivaay came in between him and Anika.

"Chill, dude. If you're invited to the party, enjoy it. Why do you want me to call the guards on you and throw you out of my mansion? Atleast save your little respect which is still left. " Shivaay said while patting his shoulder and simultaneously glaring at him.

Suddenly they heard a shrill voice, "Rahul Baby" And Anika closed her eyes in distaste.

Suddenly, a girl in her very short dress and extra makeup came towards them. She looked at Rahul, then at Shivaay who took few steps back and circled his arm on Anika's waist.

Ragini then hooked her arm in Rahul's arm who was glaring at Shivaay.

"Baby, you're here and I was looking for you everywhere. " Ragini said and Anika rolled her eyes.

"Don't you think that he's a little older to be called as a baby?" Shivaay said mockingly and Anika chuckled.

Ragini looked at Shivaay and her eyes widened in realisation. She squealed in excitement and said, "Oh My God! You're The Shivaay Singh Oberoi, right. The only heir of Oberoi's and CEO of Oberoi Industries. " Ragini was about to pounce on him when Anika pushed her back.

"Yes, he's the one and only Shivaay Singh Oberoi and MY one and only Husband." Anika said with a smirk and Ragini's eyes widened in shock and she uttered "Anika".

Shivaay smiled at his 'possessive wife' and said, " The one and only. My beautiful wife. And you must be the one with whom he cheated on my wife two days ago or rather say was cheating on my wife from last 1.5 years. Am I right? "

Rahul and Ragini's eyes widened in shock and they hesitated to speak. Shivaay looked at them and said, " No.. No. Don't be hesitant. I really want to thank you for what you did. I mean if you haven't shown your true colors to Anika then how would I've got the lucky chance to get married to her. Thanks buddy. " Shivaay patted Rahul's shoulder with a smile and Anika chuckled.

"Ladies and Gentlemen, May I have your attention please? So it's time for cake cutting. There are two cakes for two celebrations. First one is a wedding cake for my son and my lovely daugher-in- law and second one is for the Christmas celebration. So please join us at the centre stage." Pinky announced with a bright smile.

Shivaay and Anika looked at each other with a smile.

"Time to go, darling. " Anika said to Shivaay and he nodded his head.

Shivaay turned to look at Rahul and Ragini who were looking at them with anger-filled eyes and said, " Got to go, guys. But it was nice to meet you. Let's go, sweetheart. "

Shivaay and Anika went towards the centre stage where two cakes were arranged on the centre table.
One Wedding cake and One Christmas cake.

Anika cupped her mouth in surprise after seeing the cakes.

"It's so beautiful." Anika said while admiring the cake and Shivaay nodded his head.

Dadi came forward and handed over a sword to them for cutting the cake.

"Cut your wedding cake. " Dadi said with a smile. Shivaay took the sword from her and Anika held his hand and they cut the wedding cake together while everyone clapped for them.

Shivaay and Anika fed the cake to each other and the family.

Now it was time to cut the Christmas cake. Pinky and Dadi held Shivaay's hand and Shakti held Anika's hand and the whole Oberoi family cut the cake together.

Pinky called a waiter and asked him to serve both the cakes to the guests. The waiter nodded his head.

The party was going on in full swing. Everyone was enjoying every moment of the party. Mostly everyone was admiring the newly wed couple.

Finally after few hours, the party cane to an end. Shivaay and Anika were giving the return gifts to the guests.

Rahul and Ragini came towards them as they were also leaving.

Ragini leaned towards Anika in order to hug her and whispered in her ear, "You must be very happy after all you're Mrs. Oberoi now. But remember one thing that Rahul also got bored of you and left you and Shivaay will also do the same. And when this will happen, I'll be there with him. " Ragini broke the hug and smirked at Anika. Anika was numb for a minute. Ragini held Rahul's hand and left the mansion.

Tears formed in Anika's eyes and she ran to their room. Shivaay was shocked for a minute.

"What happened to her? I should check on her. " Shivaay thought. Shivaay ran behind her and saw that Anika was sitting on the window niche and tears were flowing from her eyes.

"What happened, Anika?" Shivaay asked her worriedly. Anika shook her head in negative and wiped her tears.

"It's nothing. "Anika said without looking at him. Shivaay knew something wasn't right. He held her hand and made her look at him.

" Anika, I know we aren't typical husband and wife but as we have to live together for a year so atleast we can be friends. " Shivaay said in a serious tone and Anika nodded her head.

"And friends share everything with each other, right? " Anika again nodded her head. "So please tell me what happened? Why are you crying? "Shivaay asked her.

"Ragini said Rahul was with her because he was bored of me and she said that when you'll get bored of me, then you'll also go with her. " Anika said while crying.

"If a day comes when I have to go with that b*tch, then I'll definitely hang myself to death before going with her." Shivaay said with determination and Anika looked at him softened eyes.

"Really? " Anika asked him and he said, "Of course, when I have a such beautiful wife, how can I go with her? And those who say that you're boring, they are world's biggest idiots. You know why? " Anika shook her head in negative.

"Okay, let's take the example of last night. You were drinking in the club alone. Then you didn't got scared of me, as I was a stranger for you. Then you challenged me to drink 15 shots of tequila. Then we got drunk married and even consummated it. And you even agreed to support me for this 'wedding charade'. I think you're the coolest girl I've ever known and I'm proud of you. And don't believe those idiots. " Shivaay said with a wide smile playing on his lips.

"Thank you for supporting me. But I want revenge. I can't let them go without paying after insulting me. " Anika said with determination in her eyes.

"What's going on in your brain? " Shivaay asked her scared of her plan.

Anika looked at him with a smirk and said, "You told me that I can ask anything from you in return of this wedding charade, right. " Shivaay meekly nodded his head.

"Then get ready in your best hoodie as you're my partner in crime for this revenge. " Anika said with an evil smile playing on her lips.

"Get ready, Mr. Rahul and Ragini. You're going to pay so hard for insulting me. " Anika said with a smirk while rubbing her palms as if getting ready for the fun.

Shivaay frowned after seeing her smile and thought, "Oh God, please save me from her evil revenge plan."
