The discussion regarding the commercial went on for two hours straight. Ria was on work mode as she gave many suggestions regarding the costumes according the purpose of the commercial. It was for Kozhaksi corporations, for every sector they manage. Nash was also present for this commercial.At the end of meeting, Ren who was dead silent till now while looking at his wife with admiration spoke up, "Does anyone have suggestions for the model to be used in the commercial." One of share holders said, "Ms.Katherine is the best choice."
Another share holder agreed with him, "Yes! I agree too." They favoured her because, they thought she and Big Boss are in a relationship so they might end up with some advantages. Its always been like this.
They saw the interview at the airport but they didn"t mind it now, because they have no idea, that woman was this woman who was sitting next to their Big Boss. Ria thought their opinion was professional advices so she didn"t say anything.
Ren said confidently, "I will let Ms. Anna to decide the model as she is the costume designer. I would also like her to be the script writer if possible".
Ria knew he deliberately said the word Ms.Anna. Ria thought, "Anna..... uh?" Ren is the only who calls her anna. In Milan she wanted to give up on her old self, so she registered as Ria Raj while her name in the certificates were Rianna Raj.
Ria is also as script writer, she has not done it for a while as she was focused on the company for these years. She had written many script for the commercials in the Bridal Collections. The scripts she wrote were more natural, like from the point of view of the audience.
Ria wanted to refuse but before she could react, Ren caressed her legs with his leg. Ria jumped in her seat while Ren smirked looking at her. Everyone was confused looking at her sudden reaction. She pulled herself together immediately then said with an awkward smile, "Sorry Everyone! I was startled by the Pen that fell from the table".
No one said anything, some just nodded their head. Ria then said, "It would be my pleasure, President Kozhaksi. I would like to meet this model in person to see her aura and looks. And I also like to check other models who are willing to partic.i.p.ate. It is a great opportunity for all of them after all."
The Artist Managing Director said this time, "It would our pleasure, Miss Rianna." Ria nodded at him then he introduced himself in front of everyone, "I am Caden Rodriguez. The Artist Director of the Entertainment department. Whenever you are available, I will personally bring the models for the audition".
His interest on Ria was very clear by the words and the way he looked at her like some treasure. Ria understood that this man is showing her attention more than what is neccessary. She said with a smile after looking at watch, "I can look at them in an hour break after the meeting is over."
Caden said excitedly, "Sure! Miss Rianna". Ria nodded at him. Darren shook his head and thought, "Wrong move, buddy!" Nash thought, "Don"t come looking for later, cad". Caden is Nash"s friend and later became buddies with Darren.
While someone was looking at the conversion between them like he had drank some sour vinegar. Ren cleared his throat and said, "So, the meeting the over".
They all nodded but before they could stand up Ren continued, "Now, I would like to introduce my two adorable kids and my sweet wife". Ria gave him a cold glare and shook her head like telling him not to do this.
Ren turned a blind eye to her, stood up and went to his kids in the couch. Varun was drawing the Azalea shrubs, which are kept as decorations in the room. Ren stood there for few minutes, while Varun was giving some Red colour touches to the flower to make it more livelier. Ria was the one who taught him this technique.
Ren asked Varun so gentle like a b.u.t.ter, "Finished, little guy?" Varun looked up and nodded. Ren picked him up and the little doll who just woke up from sleep. Then he walked to the table, Diya was still sleepy as she burried her face in Ren"s embrace.
Anyone can tell how much he liked her action from his face expression. Ria looked at her little marshmallows and wanted to cuddle them. She stayed put as they are in a meeting hall. When Ren stood next to his seat, Diya peeked from his embrace with the corner of her eyes.
She immediately leaned towards her mother as soon as she saw her. Ria suddenly stood up rushed to Ren"s side and caught Diya from him. Diya hugged her mother"s neck and burried her face in her nape. She dozed off as she felt her mother"s smell.
The whole meeting room was in silence looking at the family"s public display of affection. Darren wanted so badly to hold Diya. Ren pulled Ria by holding her waist and said, "She is my wife, Rianna Raj and my kids, Diya and Varun. We will be holding our wedding ceremony soon". Varun made a slight bow at others in respect.
The smile on Caden"s face froze, due to sudden row of Ren"s action. Ren gave him a few seconds glare which made him go numb. After that everyone came over and congratulated Ren and Ria. Varun shaked everyone"s hands but Diya slept without budging.
Darren rushed to Ren after speaking with the Artist director, Caden about the models. He took Varun from Ren"s hands. He tickled him for which Varun giggled cutely. Some of the female shareholders holded Varun for a while. Varun felt a little shy as gained lots of attention.
Some of share holders were talking with Ren and said lots of praises about Ria that she is beautiful, talented, this and that. Ren"s nose grew big and tightened his grip on her. She was holding Diya and kept the smile on her face plastered the entire time.
After they left, Ren guided Ria to his room, which was no different from his bedroom except for the couch. Then he led her to the lounge, she was a bit surprised to see a comfort atmosphere in the lounge. It was like an apartment to be exact.
Ren took Diya from her arms and said, "Are you alright? You have been holding her for a while." Ria didn"t say anything but she felt a bit weak. Ren laid Diya on the bed and tucked her in on a blanket.
Ria squinted her eyes and asked him instead, "How much have you trained, using every opening you see?"
He feigned innocence and asked back like a little kid, "What is it?" He kind of don"t know what is she asking about! About the project audition or script or announcement as wife or calling her as Anna or even under the table deal. That is when he realised and thought, "I have taken a little bit advantage!"
Ria walked towards him and took hold of his neck with her hands like strangling but with no force. She asked him with a very much annoyed tone, "You don"t know?" Ren smiled Charmingly and said, "Anna..." But Ria interrupted while giving some pressure in her hold, "Don"t! That girl is not here anymore!"
Ren took a step forward and as Ria moved backward and hands became forceless. He took her hands from the neck and drapped it around his neck completely, avoiding her angry eyes. His hands holded her waist.
He pulled her close into him then leaned towards her face and asked, "Are you sure?" She didn"t say anything and looked into his eyes.
He closed the gap looking at her reaction very solely. Not only he could hear his heartbeat, he also heard her heartbeat. Ria"s breathe became irregular as he closed in.
Ren licked her lips, Ria"s hands clinged onto the back of his shirt tightly on his action.....
