Billionaire’s Love From India

Lavanya sat on the bed with the album in her hands but didn’t open it. Eden furrowed his eyebrows. “Lavanya, Why are you not opening the album?”

“I am feeling that you don’t want me to see it.” She stared at the album in her hands.

He sat beside her. “Why would I not want you to see it?”

“I don’t know, but the expression you just made when I asked for your parent’s photo gave me this idea.” She said with a pout.

He didn’t want to tell her the actual reason that he never saw his parent’s photo because it reminds him of all the bad memories of his childhood, so he said in a funny way, “Actually, I hate to admit this, but this photo album has a most embarrassing childhood photo of mine which I don’t want you to see.”

She laughed. “Now, I am going to see that photo.” She opened the album, and on the first page, she found the photo she wanted to see. A beautiful couple was in the photograph, holding a child. She looked at the photo with a smile.

Eden’s father was really handsome, and his mother was most beautiful with her gorgeous smile. They both were holding Eden together in the middle of them. Lavanya looked carefully, and found that Eden had got his mother’s eyes. Eden was looking cute. A tear rolled down Eden’s cheek as he continuously stared at his parent’s photo, but Lavanya didn’t notice it because she was busy with the photo.

“It’s beautiful! Your mom was gorgeous, and you were cute in childhood.” She complimented, and he smiled, wiping his tears.

Lavanya started turning the pages of the album, going through more childhood photos of Eden with his parents. There were lots of embarrassing photos of Eden. She was enjoying seeing them when one photo grabbed her attention. It was Eden’s photo, sitting inside the tiny swimming pool, wearing only underwear. He was all covered with soap bubbles and had a huge smile on his face.

“It’s so cute!” She pulled his cheek.

“It’s embarrassing!” He frowned. She closed the album and kept it on the bed.

“Eden, You have me now. Don’t worry about anything. Please always keep yourself happy. Promise me.” She stretched out her hand. “New year is coming. Let’s make a new beginning together, leaving your dark past behind to make a bright future together, and from now on, we will remember Mom and Dad happily.”

He kept his hand on her hand. “I promise.” He kissed her forehead and said, “Lavanya, I am sorry. I kissed you at the party without your consent.”

“Come on! I understand this. You were forced by Edward, Jaime, and Kristina.” She placed her head on his shoulder.

Eden was working on the day of the new year. Lavanya was missing him as she was getting bored staying alone in the mansion.

“It’s New Year. I should do something special for Eden.” She thought for a moment. “A romantic dinner and a movie night will be great.”

She went downstairs and entered the kitchen. Bella saw her and asked, “Are you feeling hungry?”

“No, I am good.” She looked around the kitchen, then at Bella and said, “Actually, I want to cook dinner tonight.”

Bella was surprised. “Why would you cook? Tell us what you want to eat, we will cook it for you.”

“No, I want to cook for Eden.”

“Master will scold us if he gets to know about this. I can’t allow you. Sorry” Bella said.

“Please, Aunt Bella!” She requested by making her best puppy face, and this forced Bella to change her decision and to agree to her request.

“Okay, You can cook, but be careful with everything, and few servants will help you.”

Bella then turned to Amelia. “Keep a close watch on her.”

Amelia nodded.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

“She agreed really easily for this. Thank God!” With Bella’s approval, Lavanya started preparing for dishes. She was slowly and carefully cutting the onions first, as the knife in her hand was very sharp, and ended up with lots of tears in her eyes. Amelia saw her and asked, “Why are you crying, Madam?”

“I don’t want to cry. These are making me cry.” She pointed at onions, and Amelia laughed.

“I will cut them. Give me the knife.” Lavanya gave the knife to her and started remembering how her mother used to cook the Indian dishes as she always watched her carefully, observing all the ingredients she used and the recipe she used and finally, after the hard work of four hours, she finished cooking her favorite Indian dishes, with the help of the servants. She proudly smiled, looking at the dishes she cooked for the first time. “Mom would be so proud of me.”

She came out of the kitchen and started decorating the dining room with candles and some flowers for a romantic candlelight dinner. Amelia and other servants were helping her.

After the dining room, she decorated the living room where she planned to enjoy the movie with him. She was in the middle of decorating the room when Eden walked inside the mansion. He saw her in the living room, so he went to her. He was surprised to see the living room, fully decorated with flowers and candles.

Lavanya didn’t notice him as she was busy with the decorations. He cleared his throat to grab her attention. She turned to look at him. “You were going to be late. Why are you back so early?”

“I finished my work early. What are you doing? Are we having a New Year party?” He asked, looking around the living room.

“I wanted to surprise you.”

He smiled. “Really, but why?”

“It’s New Year! We should celebrate it in a special way as it’s our first New Year together.” She pouted.

“So, What are your plans for tonight?” He asked seductively, wrapping his arm around her waist to pull her closer.
