Zinu smiled and sat on John"s lap. John got excited. He holds her and started to run his fingers on her body. Zinu kissed him and said. "Hubby, now you are relaxed. Will you like to share your problem with me? Why were you so tensed? " Zinu said and got up from his lap and sat on a chair nearby. John explained everything about Charlie. Zinu shocked. How can a man be so silly? How can he give up like this? She got angry.
"I will give that fool a good scolding. How could he leave a girl like that? By the way, who is that girl? I should meet her before she could do anything "
"He didn"t tell. It"s his secret."
"This Charlie, he deserves a good beating from me. Ok. Leave it. Today Mr Davidson will come to finalize the dates of engagement. Grandma called me. I think she called you too. "
"Yes. She called. We have to go early. "
"I don"t know why, but I felt something off. Henry is a good guy, no doubt. But would Dolly be happy with him? "
"Why, You told me that she is ready to marry him. Now, what"s wrong in it? "
"Yes, she told me that she would marry anyone we choose. But she still loves her ex-boyfriend. "
"Ex-boyfriend? Who is that? "
"I don"t know. But she said that he cheated on her and left her."
"Oh, I see. "
In the evening, both John and Zinu reached home at the same time, yet separately.Mr. Davidson and Henry were already present there. After evening tea, they started to discuss on Henry and Dolly"s marriage. They decided to engagement within two days and marriage after three months. As John could not introduce her as a sister, he can not invite many people. For the engagement,t only very few relatives and the few people of security department, who knew about their relations.h.i.+p will be present. They would do the engagement in a hotel of Smith"s.
Everyone was happy for Dolly and Henry, except for Zinu. She did not like the idea of engagement too early. She wanted to make the engagement late and in this period, Dolly could heal her relations.h.i.+p with her ex-boyfriend.
Dolly did not say anything when she heard the news of her engagement. John called her and asked about her decision, but her reply was the same.
Dolly entered her room after dinner. She knew she is not doing the right thing. But she must punish that Charlie. She waited for him for so many years. After their break up, she thought that Charlie would continue his relations.h.i.+p with Sara. But one day she met Sara. She was with her boyfriend. That means Charlie was, not with any relations.h.i.+p with her. Then why he never came back to her? She thought Charlie would come back at least once, but he never comes. She waited for him all these years for nothing,
In all these years, her love towards him turned to hate. She hates Charlie for his stupidity, she hates him for his cowardness. She hoped that at least he would take more initiative to explain the reasons behind his past action. But no. He never tried hard.
Dolly thought that Charlie would come back after seeing Henry with her. She waited for him, but he never came even after that. What is the meaning of all these? These means that he never loved her deeply. If he loved her, he would not let her go.
If he doesn"t love her, then how can she wait for him more? All her newly found family members, as well as her mother, wanted her to get married as soon as possible. she too knew that it"s every parent"s and family members wish to get their daughter married. So she decided to marry the person, they choose. She knew that if she took the initiative to marry Charlie, he could reject her again. She did not want her family members felt small for her.
Slowly the day of engagement come. Zinu took leave for two days. She accompanied Dolly to the spa and help her to select the dress. She also selected a ring for the Henry. She herself took initiative for the decoration of the hall. Mrs.Smith, Alicia as well as Sofia too tried their best to make the programme successful.
The time for the engagement set in the evening. John invited only a few people from his company and the close family members. He only invited the people, who already knew about Dolly and his relations.h.i.+p.
"Boss, I want to take a leave of two days. I have some important works to do." Charlie came to John one day before Dolly"s engagement. He came to know about it from John. John a.s.signed him many duties for the party. Charlie knew that, if he is on duty, he must attend the engagement. So he came beforehand for a leave.
"How can you take a leave, when there is an important day of me is ahead.No, your work is not more important than my sister"s engagement. There are lots of work to do there and where you want to leave? No Charlie. You can not. Now go and call the music band for tomorrow."
Charlie was devasted. How can he do all the works for the engagement of his lover?
He could not gather the courage to go to Dolly again.After hearing John"s advice, he thought for a long time. Yes, he loves Dolly more than his life, but will she accept him again. It"s already late. Henry had entered her life. Will she hear his explanation now? No. He could not tell her everything now. If he does, Dolly would think that he now trying to get her back, because she now becomes the heiress of Smith Enterprise. Dolly would think him greedy.
