Chapter 21 Unaware
Eden was holding a silver tiara and a diamond ring in his hands. He slid the ring on her finger, then placed the tiara on her head smiling, and this moment reminded her of the moment when Daksh placed the tiara on her head with a smile on the day of her birthday.
A tear escaped her eye. Eden noticed this and asked, “Why are you crying? Did you not like this tiara?”
“I am sorry. I really like it. Thank you so much.” She carefully wiped her tears.
“Then, why are you crying?” He asked, taking her hand in his.
“It’s…it’s nothing.” She said and smiled.
“Don’t lie, Lavanya. If you’re crying after seeing this tiara, there must be a reason behind it. Tell me.”
“This tiara reminded me of my brother.” She said and looked at him.
“You really love him very much, but you shouldn’t cry. If you will cry, he will be sad, and what will happen if he beats me after knowing that I made his sister cry.” Lavanya laughed, hearing this.
“Your makeup will also be spoiled. Think about that makeup artist. She worked so hard on your face.” He said, and Lavanya raised her eyebrows. “You can only care about me, not any other girl.”
Eden laughed. “Yes, Your Highness. I apologise. Now, let’s go. We are getting late.”
He extended his hand in her direction, and she placed her soft hand on his hand. They left the mansion, got inside the car, and the driver started driving it.© NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
Lavanya was nervously playing with her fingers. Eden held her hand to stop her and asked, “Are you nervous?”
She nodded her head. “A little.”
He moved closer to her and said, “You have me by your side, and I trust you. You will rock it.”
He kissed the back of her hand, and she smiled. After half an hour of driving, the driver stopped the car outside a huge white farmhouse.
Eden got out of the car. He walked to Lavanya’s side, opened the door for her, extended his hand in her direction, and she got out of the car, holding his hand.
As soon as the paparazzi and media saw Eden, they all rushed in his direction and bombarded him with questions.
“Mr. Richards, Did you really secretly get married?”
“Mr. Richards, For the first time, you’re attending this ball with a girl. What do you want to say about this?”
“Mr. Richards, What is your relationship with the girl standing beside you?”
“Mr. Richards, Why did you get married secretly?”
Eden looked at each of them first and then said, “Those are rumors.” He slid an arm around Lavanya’s waist. “I am not married yet, but I am engaged to this beautiful girl standing beside me. She is my Fiancée.”
Everyone noticed the diamond ring on her finger. Ray and other bodyguards helped them to get inside and stood out of the farmhouse. Eden went inside the ballroom with Lavanya, and all eyes turned in their direction. Everyone was surprised to see him with a girl. Eden was looking handsome in the navy blue suit with white shirt underneath and a red tie, matching with Lavanya’s red gown. They both were giving perfect couple vibes to everyone present there.
Jaime walked to them. She was looking stunning in the baby blue gown, gorgeously decorated with pink flowers. She hugged Lavanya. “You’re looking so gorgeous.” She turned to Eden. “Mom and Dad are waiting for you.”
He nodded and walked towards an elderly couple with Lavanya. While walking towards them, Lavanya looked around the big party hall at all the girls and found they all were looking at her with envious eyes as Jaime told her.
They stopped near the couple. Eden greeted them. “Hello, Mom and Dad.”
“Hello.” His mother replied, looking at Lavanya carefully. Lavanya felt uncomfortable under her gaze, and she clutched Eden’s arm tightly.
“Who is this gorgeous girl with you?” His father asked.
“She is Lavanya, My Fiancée, and Lavanya, they are my parents. Mr. Charles Richards, and Mrs. Sarah Richards.”
“Hello. Nice to meet you.” Lavanya politely greeted them.
“So, you chose her. Is she much better than Emily for you?” Sarah asked Eden. Before he could answer, She again said, “Forget, I know the reason why you’ve chosen her.”
“Who is this Emily? And Eden chose me for a reason. What is that?” Lavanya thought.
“She is best for my brother!” Jaime said happily.
“I don’t have any interest in your personal life and I really don’t care who you choose to marry, Eden Richards. Just make sure that nothing goes wrong tonight because of her.” Sarah said and left with Charles. Eden clenched his fists in anger but tried to calm himself for Lavanya.
“Let’s go. I will introduce you to my childhood best friend.” He held Lavanya’s hand. Jaime too followed them.
Eden introduced Lavanya to his best friend. “This is Edward. My childhood best friend and my crime partner also.”
“Nice to meet you.”
“Thank God! You came into his life. At Least, he will learn to smile now.” Edward said, and Eden smacked his arm. “Where is your wife?”
“She wasn’t feeling well.”
“You’re married?” Lavanya asked. Edward nodded with a smile.
“Brother, I think it’s time for you to have a dance with Lavanya.” Jaime said, smiling.
Eden forwarded her hand in Lavanya’s direction, and she placed her soft hand on his with a smile. They moved to the center of the hall. He held her right hand in his left hand, placing the right hand on her waist, and she placed her left hand on his shoulder. They both started moving as the orchestra played Waltz music.
Lavanya in Forever Love was looking gorgeous when it swirled as she glided through the steps with Eden. She was happily dancing with him, unaware that two people were looking at her from a distance. One with a huge smile on face and the other with hate.
