Billionaire’s Love From India

She switched off the phone and went downstairs to have breakfast.

Daksh stared at the screen of his phone and thought, “Who was calling me, and why that person didn’t talk?”

He called on that number again, but it was switched off. He kept his phone back on the table and started reading the file again.

Eden organized an amazing birthday party for Lavanya. He invited Jaime, Kristina, Edward, some of his friends, and also Ray because Lavanya wanted him to join her birthday party.

Lavanya was enjoying the party with everyone when her eyes landed on Ray, who was looking at Jaime with a little smile playing on his lips.

She went near him. “I think you should confess your feelings to her today.”

He looked at her with wide eyes. She smiled, placing her hand on his shoulder and said, “Confess your feelings before it’s too late.”

“What if she said no or the worst, if she is already dating someone?”

She looked at him with an irritated expression. “Why are you thinking so negatively? Just go.”

She saw Jaime going towards the garden. “Jaime is going to the garden. This is a perfect time. Go after her.”

Ray went to the garden as she forced him. Jaime was talking to someone on the phone. Her back was facing him. He took a deep breath, smiled, and went near her.

“Of course, sweetheart! Let’s meet tomorrow. Bye.” His smile disappeared when he heard her words. She turned around. “Ray, what are you doing here?”

“Miss Lavanya asked me to call you inside.” He said without any expression on his face.

“Oh! I just came outside to talk to my friend, Livia. Let’s go inside.” She took a step ahead to go inside, but he stopped her holding her hand. She looked at him and then at her hand. He left her hand. “I want to tell you something.”

“Jaime, I love you.” He finally confessed. She was surprised by this sudden confession. He was preparing himself to face her rejection, but she smiled and said, “I respect your feelings. I just need some time to process this and to think about it.”

“Sure, take your time.”

They both went inside. Lavanya smiled, looking at them. She wanted to ask Ray about it but stopped herself. “I will ask him later.”

After the cake cutting, Eden went to discuss something with Edward, and Kristina was talking about dresses and shoes with Jaime. Lavanya found Ray standing alone. She went to him and asked, “How did it go?”

He hesitated for a moment and finally revealed. “I confessed that I love her.”

“What? Really!” She became excited.

“Yes!”

“What did she say?” She looked at Jaime and then again at him.

“She needs some time to think about it.” He took a sip of his drink.

“Don’t worry! she will say yes. I can see it in her eyes.” She said while playing with her hair.

He furrowed his eyebrows. “How are you so sure? She hasn’t said I love you to me. She has said that she will think about it. What if she rejects me?”

She looked at him with an annoyed expression. “Will you stop thinking negatively? I also haven’t said I love you to Eden yet, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t love him.”

“If you’re sure. I trust you.” He smiled.

She was about to say something to him, but Eden called her. They all were ready to leave after the party ended. Kristina and Edward left first.

“Jaime, wait.” She stopped when Eden called her from behind.

“Yes, brother.”

“Ray will drop you home. It’s quite late. It’s not safe for you to go alone.” He looked at Ray, who was standing behind him.

Ray thought that Jaime would refuse, but she easily agreed with Eden. They both also left from there. They both were feeling happy.

He dropped her home safely. She changed her clothes, laid down on her bed, and smiled thinking about Ray’s love confession. She closed her eyes and fell asleep soon.

Lavanya laid down on her bed because she was really tired after wearing high heels. She felt thirsty and got up to get the water from the table when her eyes landed on her new phone. “I should call, Bhaiya (Brother). After all, I have to talk to him one day. I can’t avoid it for too long.”

She held the phone in her hand but quickly kept it back. “God, why can’t I find the courage to talk to him? I should prepare myself more.”

She drank the water and went to sleep.

In the morning, She was having breakfast with Eden. He noticed that she was looking a little bit disturbed. He thought for a moment and asked her, “Lavanya, Did you call your brother?”

She looked down at her plate. “No, I am not finding the courage inside me to talk to him.”

He placed his hand on her hand. “It’s all because of me. I have left you in such a situation.”

“Again you’re blaming yourself. It’s not you alone. I am also happily living with you.” She smiled a little.

“You’ll have to talk to him someday. I know you can’t live without your family and now, I also don’t want you to stay without them. Call your brother.” He touched her cheek, and she nodded.

She went back to her room. She picked up her phone from the table and dialed Daksh’s number.

Daksh was having lunch with everyone when his phone started ringing. He picked his phone up, and he quickly recognized the number.

“Who is calling you at the time of lunch?” Sakshi asked him.

“It’s an international number. I am receiving a call from this number for the second time. That person doesn’t say anything when I answer the call and cut the call. I also tried to call again when I first received the call from this number, but it was switched off.” Daksh stared at the number.
