Saanvi gasped in horror as she heard Austin's words.
"Austin this is not fair, better prepare an answer to my dad" Muhan raged in anger.
Austin immediately took out his phone and called Mr.Chen and explained everything, as he put on the speaker Mr.Chen said "Let him stay there tonight, let others leave"
"Dad" as Muhan screamed on top of his lungs, his dad hung up the call.
"Denis, stay here and accompany him" Austin walked out saying that coldly.
Riya asked Saanvi while walking out looking at her hand "What happened this time?"
Saanvi said with a worried tone looking at Muhan and Denis "Riya, Muhan, and Denis, they will be alright, right?"
"They are just staying there, and will be released after tonight" Zhang said patting her head softly.
Zhang turned towards Maggie and Sophia "Clifton is on the way, will pick up you people"
Nodding their heads Maggie and Sophia said Saanvi to get treatment for her hand immediately.
"I will be leaving with them as you people are busy," said Saanvi, to Zhang and Riya.
Saanvi refused to go with them as Austin don't want to agree her as his wife. She was fed up with these fights.
Maggie dragged her to the corner forgetting it was the injured hand "Maggie, leave my hand" Water started to flow from Saanvi's eyes.
She started to cry loudly as the pain is killing her. Austin immediately came out of his car and turned her towards him. As soon as he turned her towards him "Austin, hic, it's hurting hic hic hic hic" Austin rushed her to the hospital.
The family doctors waiting for them at the entrance asked looking at her hand. The skin peeled off as it was hanging and split showing the red blood muscle "How did you even got hurt!" Doctor asked rushing her inside the hospital.
"It's hurting Austin" Saanvi's tears are nowhere to stop
Hugging her tightly Austin said "Give anesthesia to her quickly"
Saanvi was asleep while she is been carried by Austin in his arms to the VIP room after getting many stitches.
After one hour...
Opening her dizzy eyes slowly, Saanvi saw Austin working with Clifton. "Cough, cough" slowly trying to sit straight, Saanvi asked Clifton for water.
Austin immediately took the jar of water, and made her drink after pouring water into the glass.
"Feeling better?" asked her
"My hand, I can't feel it" she still had a small amount of anesthesia on her hand which is making her hand feel numb.
"Madam, it will take another hour for you to feel it"
Astonished, by following the voice to the other side of her bed, where, doctors are waiting for an hour for her to wake up.
"Clifton" Austin called.
Understanding the meaning, Clifton asked the doctors to leave.
Clifton locked the door as he was leaving the room.
No one spoke anything for a while until Saanvi's stomach growled from hunger.
"Clifton prepare dinner for my wife" Austin asked
"Yes sir" Clifton responded back on the phone
"When there is no one I am your wife, in front of everyone I am just someone's friend" Saanvi chuckled as laughing at her own state.
Looking as if he was not responding Saanvi asked "Why Muhan was in jail, where I was the one who did the theft" asked Austin who is walking towards the sofa to continue his work.
"Argh" throwing the jar on the ground Saanvi shouted "I am fed up with this hide and seek Austin, I need answers for everything"
Despite responding to her, Austin asked Clifton to send someone to clean the glass pieces. Getting down from the bed, she turned him towards her who is talking with Clifton "I don't want to stay with you"
"I can understand, but please be on the bed, the glass pieces are everywhere" Austin lifted her in his arms. As she still has some anesthesia left on her she was feeling weak, not able to feel the full energy in her body.
After tugging her with a blanket Austin continued talking with Clifton about some work.
Looking at him who is not caring for her, Saanvi got down again and walked out with a little dizziness.
"Sophia, huff huff" As she called Sophia who is standing in the corridor along with Maggie, Saanvi's breath became heavy, her right hand is numb, she couldn't stand, as the water was dripping from her eyes while fainting, Austin caught Saanvi before her body touching the ground. Sophia and Maggie ran to Saanvi while Austin was shouting desperately for the doctor.
"As she was heavily injured and had a high body temperature, due to that she lost strength of her body" Even though the doctor explained without taking a break in between he was sweating profusely by watching Austin's expression. Austin was not talking anything; he was just staring at Saanvi who is unconscious.
I just let you go out for one day, just one day, look what you have made yourself. This is the reason why I want to lock you in the house; I can't see you lying on the bed without responding to me.
After a long silence...
Austin said "I will take her home"
"I will make preparations immediately" Clifton walked out of the room along with the doctors.
"Sophia," Saanvi slightly opened her eyes calling Sophia near her.
"I don't want to stay with him, take me with you" Saanvi's words made Austin clench his eyes closed tightly.
"Saanvi we can talk about this when we get home" Austin held her hand
Turning away from her face she said "I know you have your reasons every time you want to stay away from me Austin, I am fed up now, I need some time to cool my head" tears rolled down from her eyes.
Despite her disagreement, Austin took her to the villa where they used to live when they got married. The staff greeted Saanvi as usual; butler Wu got special instructions to take extra care of Saanvi.
There was dead silence between them while having dinner, even though Austin feeding her, she didn't utter a word. While leaving to sleep she said "Uncle Wu, I don't want to share my bed with anyone, make arrangements" even though she called butler but her gaze was fixated on Austin.
As soon as she entered the room she felt like she is back home after ages, everything is as usual nothing seems to be changed except a closed curtain hanging behind the bed. As soon as she showered, opened the curtain by hopping onto the bed.
Tears started to fall from her eyes as soon as she saw a wall with a wallpaper of their first taken picture. It was the first selfie that Saanvi took; Austin was holding her waist from behind, kissing her cheek wearing just a towel while Saanvi was having a surprising expression due to the sudden kiss.
"Bastard" Saanvi cried out loud sleeping on her stomach.
"Why can't we be normal?" Blaming her fate Saanvi slept crying until her eyes are swollen.
Austin entered the room after she slept soundly, kissing her forehead, covering her with a quilt, he left saying "Good night"
Early in the morning, after getting ready to leave to see Muhan and Dennis, Saanvi was stopped by the butler saying "Order was given madam, to stop you until you have breakfast"
"Arghh" stomping her foot Saanvi looked at the one who is having breakfast with a proud smirk.
"Uncle, please ask maid marry to come here," Saanvi asked while taking her seat.
"Marry, please help me to cut them" asked showing the bread omelet on her plate.
"Sure, young madam," said while stepping forward.
Pulling the plates of each other at the same time, Saanvi and Austin continued to remain silent. Austin cut them into neat pieces by making the maid leave. On the other hand, Saanvi asked to change the bread which is spread with peanut butter into a normal one "Uncle Wu, fruit jam" pushing the bread and jam towards her other side Saanvi said angrily "Your young master is not young anymore, he should be careful not get sick because of some things"
"I am at fault madam, forgot about the allergy of the master," said bowing his head.
Pushing her plate to her, Austin said with a cold and icy tone "There is one thing, your young madam also should keep in mind, calling her husband and depending on him is better than calling the maids"
"If only my husband treats me like his true wife" not eating anything she stood and started to walk away pushing the plate slightly.
"I will give you leaves don't go anywhere until you are cured," Austin said while walking behind her.
Looking back at the untouched breakfast, she went back and sat until he finishes his food.
Saanvi kept on going with her talks with everyone around her until he had breakfast. Just when she got up from her seat to leave, Austin said "I will drop you"
"Hmph, dropping your friend's friend might be too much Mr. Lee" said by smirking "Anyway, we won't cross the ways mind not" added walking
Walking past her, he said "I am just going to nearby for an inspection, get on" said while opening the car door.
Opening the door beside the driver, Saanvi asked Clifton to drive coldly.
As soon as the car stopped at the venue, Saanvi send bye to Clifton before getting down completely ignoring Austin.
"Clifton, why my wife always uses you to irk me," Austin asked giving a murderous vibe to Clifton.
"I-I" Clifton completely choked his words.
"Drive," Austin said coldly
"Sir, where do you want me to stop for inspection" Clifton asked as he heard he was going for an inspection.
"What inspection, drive to office" Austin while checking his laptop.
So it was only to drop madam, your love is perfectly fine but dragging a poor soul like me into your mess. Clifton cried silently inside.
