Mafia's Vengeful Wife

Chapter 22

KIARA

I was fixed on my decision. I had to save Aai at any cost and to save her, I was ready to go to any extent. So, if my extent meant marrying Rudraneel Rane, I would do that. I would marry him and unleash hell on him just because he played his cheap games with me.

"Don't... Don't let yourself lose...in this," Aai mumbled in a weak tone.
I looked at Aai, and that's when another realisation hit me. No matter what happens, I can't let to lose my dreams and myself in this chaos.

I held her hands and smiled.
"I won't. Trust me," I replied and see her nodding with a slight smile.
I knew Aai, even at this moment, I am sure that she would be worried about me and my decision. She knew she couldn't change my decisions because I have been stubborn since forever, but still, this was indeed a life-changing decision for both of us.

I let Aai take a rest and walked out of her ward. I walked towards the terrace and sat on the stairs. I had certain things on my mind and that's what I had to act upon. I had to make sure that I do not lose myself while I make Rudraneel Rane lose.

I took out my phone and made a call to Rudraneel.
"Hello," he spoke in his usual mocking tone after picking up the call.
"I have a few conditions before I tie the knot with you," I spoke in an emotionless tone.
All of my emotions were killed by this man I am talking to.

"First, after Aai's treatment. She would reside with me. I mean wherever you keep me, Aai will be there as well. She is ill and she has no one in this world except me. I have promised her son that I would take the best care of her," I spoke as I remembered Mukul.
It's been a few months since I lost him, and now, I am compelled to marry someone else. This breaks my heart in multiple ways.

"Okay. I have no problem with that. In fact, it would be better. I have staff in my house, she would be taken well care of and she would never be alone. I will make sure Avinash doesn't bother her," Rudraneel replied.

Avinash? Yeah! How did I forget him? Where is he? And how would he react when he gets to know that his chachu is marrying me. He hates me and he wants to keep me away from his dear chachu, but right now, I am concerned about his reaction. I hope he doesn't harm Aai.

"What's your other conditions?" He asked, noticing my silence for a long time.
"Yeah! I am saying that," I responded and took a deep breath.

I was nervous because people like Rudraneel won't budge twice before crushing my dreams into millions of pieces, but I am existing because of my dreams, so I had to protect them from scattering.

"My late husband and I had a few dreams. I have ambitions and my career and my late husband wanted me to flourish in it. And I want to fulfil all the wishes of my late husband. So for that, I want no hindrances in my career. I would continue going to college and pursue my studies and then masters. I would fulfil all my dreams that my husband wanted me to," I spoke as my heart cried for Mukul.

I was missing him, and at that moment, I wanted to cry and blame him. That, look Mukul, you left and our lives are in complete chaos. But I had to be strong.

"I respect your late husband and I respect your Aai. So be assured, there would be no hindrances in your studies and career. In fact, I would help you sponsor your education in the best institutes. So that you can be the best in your career," he replied.

His reply seemed like flattering me, and that's why, I couldn't trust his words. So here comes my third condition.

"My third condition is, I want you to form an official documents of both the earlier conditions and sign it. I would sit on the mandap after I verify the document and the signatures," I told him.
