Chapter 8: Meeting with the Fiancé or is it Ex fiancé?

Sarah woke up as soon as she heard the voice of her balcony's door closing. She sat in her place on the best and with a drowsy voice she said "Can't you be a little quiet, I just had the perfect dream." Samantha replied with a no nonsense attitude "Aryan just called me."

Sarah's sleep disappeared and she gave her friend a look to continue with what she had to say. Samantha understood her look and continued "He informed me to join him for dinner." Sarah clapped her hands once and exclaimed "I bet he will propose." Samantha snorted "Propose? I am sure he will say let's get married and he will definitely put his ring on my finger tonight."

Sarah said "We have it all planned, don't worry." Samantha's expression turned serious and she sat beside Sarah on the bed, Sarah noticed this and asked "What happened?" Samantha answered thoughtfully "What do you think about that man we met for breakfast?"

Sarah noticed the seriousness of Samantha's face and honestly said "He was smart but I don't think he can fight against Aryan or could be a threat to him for that matter."

Samantha knew her friend was intelligent and she said with a dead serious look "I think we were being watched in the cabin." Sarah asked curiously "The camera's? you think it was Aryan?" Samantha waved her head signaling no and said "I think he was just a pawn and someone was guiding him." She stopped for a second.

Samantha took a deep breath and continued "About being watched, did you notice the mirror on the opposite side of the window?" Sarah started thinking back to the cabin in which she had her breakfast and indeed there was a mirror. Sarah replied "Yes, what about the mirror?" Samantha replied "I think it was one side view mirror and the person who was in front of us was a mere pawn."

Sarah replied "I noticed he was sometimes taking a second or two long to reply. But I thought he was just thinking before speaking." Samantha replied "If that person is going to such lengths to be kept hidden, I can't begin to imagine what he has to hide."

Sarah replied "Let's inform that pawn about tonight's meeting and you should start getting ready, I will come with you." Samantha replied "No need for that. Aryan can get suspicious if he gets a wisp of you there." Sarah replied "I will wait for you here, Come back to my house once the meeting is done." Sarah winced thinking about something and added "You can use my car and you can come back home, we will go forward accordingly."

Samantha replied "You did note Samarth's number right? Text him the address and time of the venue Aryan has sent me, also tell him to prepare himself." Sarah nodded and did accordingly. Sarah once done with the text asked Samantha "So what will you wear?"

Samantha gave her an annoyed look and said "Let's see what you have in your wardrobe, when I had a look at that in the morning I liked a violet dress in there." Sarah gave her a bored look "You will wear violet on a date, that he might propose you on?"

Samantha got up and started walking towards the walk in closet while saying "Well, things are just getting started."

Sarah huffed and got up going towards her room freezer, she removed her chocolate ice cream and turned on the projector to watch some series and enjoy ice cream. Sarah expected Samantha to take at least an hour to get ready but to her disappointment she got out hardly in 20 minutes.

Sarah paused her series and looked at Samantha from head to toe. Sarah never was a fan of violet, it didn't go well with her temperament but today she fell absolutely in love with that color. Sarah was so mesmerized by Samantha's beauty that she forgot to pick ice cream from the tub and bit the empty spoon.

Sarah exclaimed "Ow!" Samantha snorted and went towards the door of the bedroom. Sarah yelled behind her "All the best! I will save some ice cream for you."

Samantha went out the butler of Agnihotri mansion and was ready with a key in his hand he asked "Maam will you go by yourself?" Samantha remembered that Aryan did not like her driving and to continue with her act she needed to follow her usual demeanor.

Samantha heard a voice from behind "Need a ride, Princess?" Samantha turned to meet with Saurav he was always like this in a jolly mood but when he did business he can act like a person who would kill you if you breathed the wrong way.

Samantha waved her hands saying "No, Ask your driver to accompany me." Saurav nodded at the butler who was standing behind Samantha and said "So, not in the mood to drive any more?" Samantha smiled and replied "Yes, I just had an accident." Saurav became serious "Are you hurt? Who did you hit?" Samantha snorted "Why do you think that it was me who hit someone? And not the other way around?"

Saurav was speechless, Samantha wanted to say something else when both of them heard the car driving in Saurav said "Well! Going on a date with that fiance of yours?" Samantha nodded. She sensed movement behind her and she turned to see the blue eye Sam looking at her from the first floor he mouthed "Gorgeous!" which she understood but decided to ignore.

Samantha settled in the back seat of the car and informed the driver about the venue she wanted to go to. The ride was silent for her but someone was getting angry at Agnihotri's mansion. Sam could be seen sitting beside the swimming pool of Agnihotri's mansion's backyard. His face was calm and he was focused on his drink.

Saurav came holding a bottle of wine and an empty glass to pour the wine in. When he noticed how focused Sam was Saurav cleared his throat to attract Sam's attention.

Sam turned his head to look at Saurav who was now settling down on the seat next to him and he forwarded his empty glass towards Saurav indicating him to refill it.

Saurav did refill Sam's glass and continued to do the same with his glass while saying "You look distracted." Sam replied with a question "Since when do you know this Arora girl?" Saurav replied "She was my sister's friend since they were in the playgroup."

There was silence after that. Saurav as a good friend gave advice "You should probably not think about her, she blindly loves a jerk." Sam looked at his friend and countered "If you know that he is a jerk why don't you help her get rid of him?"

Saurav replied ,"Do you think she will listen to me, when she has gone against her entire family for this guy?"

On the other hand Samantha has just reached the luxurious mexican restaurant. Samantha sighed after having a look at it, she hated spicy food but Aryan has no idea about that even after being her fiance for so long.

Samantha got out of the car as soon as the driver pulled the door open for her.To her surprise she sensed someone clicking her pictures. She tried to find out who it was without alerting the person, and she noticed they were paparazzi.

Samantha understood that Aryan wanted to propose to her in a grand manner to make this news known.

Samantha almost turned around to get out of the hotel but then she remembered she had an enemy to take care of. Samantha has just entered the restaurant and she wasn't surprised to see that the restaurant was completely empty. She knew he was a person who liked privacy.

Well! Just after looking around she noticed him seated at the other side of the restaurant's entrance. He always takes up the table with the best view.

Samantha looked at him the earlier her would have drooled at the scene in front of her but she just walked ahead to meet her fiancé or was it ex fiancé?
