Nandini's pov

It has been a whole month, I have been married for a month, and nothing has been different I guess. I waited for manik to get worse becasue my life has this bad fucking luck to it but nothing happened.

The day after our wedding when I woke up, manik was sleeping on the couch bed which I did not expect him to sleep on the couch, I was okay with him sleeping on the bed beside me. I was actually shocked at how he understood everything without me verbally stating it.

I looked at the empty bed beside me, a smile forms on my face seeing a note with a single rose. Manik usually wakes up before me and then I wake up, make him some breakfast and once he leaves I sleep again and other times we head out together if I have an early morning meeting or something.

My phone beeped bringing me out of my thoughts so I picked uo the note and rose from beside me and sat up. I grabbed my phone and saw it was a message from manik

'Good morning Nandini" the message read making me smile

"Good morning manik" I replied and grabbed the note and rose

'Dear Nandini, thank you for being a part of my life, this past month has been beautiful for me and I hope for you as well. Happy one month mrs malhotra, to many more. From Manik' the note said making me smile

"Jeez this man is romantic as fuck" I said to myself, kissing the note and smelling the rose

I got up and hopped in the shower, I wore a red dress because it's Manik's favourite colour, I felt like putting in efforts in dressing up today for him. I had a slice of toast and then I headed out to malhotra company, did I tell you that I had been working for manik all this while and didnt even know it.

He has also given me a driver even though I Insisted that I will take a cab but he strictly said no.

"Hi Maxie" I said sitting in the car

"Hi Nandini, how are you today" he asked

"Im good, how are you"

"Great, office" he asked and I nodded

The ride was silent, I was listening to music and lost in my thoughts. I like manik more than I should if that makes sense. He understands me like Navya and cabir maybe even better, might I add I see a little bit of my dad in him.

"Here we are" max said

"Thank you sir" I said and he chuckled

"Your welcome young lady" he said opening my door and I walked inside

"Nandini there is someone here to meet you" the receptionist said making me look at her all weird becasue no one comes to visit me but I nodded walking to my cabin.

Thinking about who it might be I walked inside and guess who is here my dear old selfish and gold digger step mother and sister. I took a deep breath and sat down taking out my sketches trying to ignore the two devils, but how can I live I peace

"Nandini what is this that you are wearing" she commented

"A dress" I replied

"Dont act smart with me, what the fuck is up with you, you look like a little slut wit such dresses, are you trying to open your legs for others" she said and I gripped the chair

"Get out of my office" I screamed

"Watch your voice there" she said

"Or else what, you can't do shit, you couldn't do shit previously and you can't now. I dealt with you fucking bullshit becasue dad never wanted me to argue and fight with you but now I am married to a wonderful man and I couldn't give any shits about this bitchiness of yours" I said

"You are being a fucking slut Nandini" alia said walking to me

"Really am I, because the last time I checked I wasn't wearing the tightest fucking top to showcase my boobs or the shortest skirt to show my ass" I said chuckling

"How dare you" she said grabbing my arm

"Let go" I said and mrs Murthy came up to me and grabbed my other arm

"If you ever disrespect my daughter like that I will kill you Nandini" she said and slapped me making me scream in pain

"What is going on" I heard cabir making me look at him

"Get the fuck out of her cabin now" he screamed but these two idiot didnt have the shame, they just walked tot he couch and sat down

"Baby are you okay' he asked and I nodded

"Are you sure" he asked again

"Ya umm im okay" I said even though the left side of my face stung in pain

"Mrs Murthy and alia get out" he said again

"Cabir dont come in the middle of this, I need to talk to manik" she said

"Absolutely not" I said

"Didnt ask you Nandini, I am here to meet my son"

"He is my husband" I said glaring at her

"Hello, come in nandini's cabin now" cabir said on the phone making me glare at her

"No cabir stop it"

"Shut up, I am done with their bullshit" he said making me sit

Not even a few seconds later the door busted open with a loud noise making me look up. My eyes locked with his and he ran to me ignoring everyone in the room.

"What did she do now" he asked cabir

"No idea" cabir said

"Hi manik" alia said making him turn towards them

"Namaste aunty" he said

"Namestay beta, we just wanted to come see you guys, hope its not a problem" she said like she is the sweetest little human, fucking bitch

"Of course aunty, its no problem you can come see us whenever you want" he said smiling

"Actually it is a problem" cabir said making me glare at him

"Whats going on" manik asked

"Shit is going down, Nandini go with him" he said and I shook my head

"Nandini are you okay" he asked me and I nodded

"She is fine manik" mrs Murthy said

"She doesnt look fine aunty, Nandini whats wrong" he said squatting down infront of me

"Nothing" I mummbled

"Nandini" cabir glared at me

"I have to finish these designs" I said to him

"I dont care about the designs"

"But manik needs them soon" I tried to avoid it again

"No I dont, not when you aren't well, I dont care about them, ill postpone the meetings and projects just tell me whats wrong" he said with face all of concern

"Manik" I was trying not to break down

"Yes doll what is it, did someone say something to you, tell me whats wrong Nandini" he said and I couldn't stop the tears anymore
