Someone ringed the doorbell of Ishita's room as she was getting ready for the day.

"Our master wants to meet you." The man at door said. He was old in his sixties Or something and he looked very polite and well mannered.

"You... Seem to be serving in a very rich family... Sorry, But.. I dont think I have done anything lately to offend a rich guy Or his family." Ishita said confused.

"Dont worry miss, you have not offended anyone, Its just our master that wants have a talk with you, Please come with us." The man bowed to her in gratitude.

"Uhm... Okay... But which family are you talking about, Is it someone I know.?".

"Its Jaiprakash Family. I am the butler of the family, Jadhav." He said.

(Oh... I know Mr. Jaiprakash, He helped me with my parent's surgery. I was helpless and my parents went through a huge car crash, we had nobody to help us at that time as my parents were from middle class background, and my both the grandparents had cutt off all the tie with them as they both were rebels in love. Being a little girl, I could not loose my parents and also could not do anything to fund the surgery, Thus, having mercy on me Dr. Rehaan Jaiprakash, helped me with the surgery and did it for free. Though my parents didnt survive but I owe him a lot of money, including my education and living expenses till now. Though I have never met any other family members of Rehaan uncle.. But I know he has two sons and a daughter named Dhruv, Tanmay and Naisha respectively. Since I owe this family so much, without giving it a second thought, I decided to follow him, the butler of Jaiprakash residence.)

Soon, the car pulled over a cafe. Jadhav, made her to sit on a table and opened up a laptop in front of her. Connected a video call to Mr. Dhruv Jaiprakash, The eldest son of Jaiprakash family.

He was on a hospital bed with all the machines and life supporter around him. Ishita covered her face from dismay watching him in that situation.

"Hy, I'm Dhruv, The eldest son of this family. Its nice to meet you Ishita." He said.

"Oh my god, sir... I'm so sorry to have witness you being like this.. But, what happened?" She asked panicky.

"Well.. I went through a car accident." Dhruv said smiling. "But, dont worry.. I'm doing okay.. At least I'm alive." He said.

"Sir, a pure rich guy like you... What does he wants from a girl like me?" Ishita asked.

"Its a very simple request, that I want from you... But it may appear you to be a big one.. Tell me can you do me a favour?" Dhruv asked.

"Sir, my whole life... Your father helped me with my living expenses.. He even helped me funding such an expensive surgery for my parents. Even my whole life is less to pay that back. Ask me anything.. If I'm capable of.. Ill definitely do it." Ishita said.

"Marry Me!" Dhruv said.

"Wh..What?" Ishita was tongue twisted hearing that.

" Dont worry.. You dont actually have to marry me, You will just have to pretend that you are married to me, I'll get a fake marriage certificate with you and we will fake marry each other with all the ritual according to a great Hindi marriage, but it will all be a show, to everyone. and none of anyone can know about this, Neither Tanmay, Nor Naisha, Not even my parents. The marriage is fake, itts between just you and me!" Dhruv said.

"Sir, I'm sorry, But what are you asking me to do? This.... This is wrong. A woman always dreams for a wedding I cannot fake it with you. This is just unfair. This is making fun of a pure ritual like marriage. Besides I already have someone in my life, his name is Varun.. I cannot just leave him!" Ishita said.

"So, You dont want to do it for me?" Dhruv said as his eyes darkens from frustration.

"Sorry sir,But I cannot cheat on Varun. I really love him." She said.

"Fine!" He said and folded his hands on his chest, "My dad funded your dad's and mom's surgery, which accounts for ten million each.. Its two crores already and after this, he had been funding Your education, Your dresses... Your accomodation, Your food from.. Fifteen years, which is calculated to stand for approximately two crores more. Total, four crores from our family was funded to your family.. I want all of that money back!" He said.

"Rehaan uncle never told me he wanted the money back!" Ishita said scared.

"Well, baby I own the company now.. So only I have the right to deal with the deals made in past present and future.. And as the new CEO,I want all the money which was lended to you back then, back to me and that too by the end of this week!" He said.

" Even of I have to sell myself... I will never be able to pay that back in time!" Ishita said cloudy.

"Well then, be ready to get imprisoned then." Dhruv said and smirked.

Ishita's eyes were teared, She didnt know what to do.

"You only have two options.. Either you pay me the money back till Saturday, Or marry me on Saturday." He said.

"Do I have to act like your wife for all of my life?" she asked.

"Nope! in order to act like my wife I will pay you 11 lakhs per month. the moment, you pay me back my four crores you're free to go!" He said.

"And... What are the perks of being your wife?" She asked.

"Nice, I like that question!" Dhruv smirked, "Well... You can spend lavishly like the mistress of the family.. You can enjoy on our money as much as you like but, You cannot use that money to pay me back! Also, if you like it.. You can lay down one rule, If you want." He said.

"One rule?" Ishita asked.

"Just one.. Whatever you want and I'll think about it."

"Fine, I'll behave like your ideal wife and a perfect mistress of Jaiprakash residence, in return I just want any one day in each week free from being your wife. On that day, of every week, I will not be forced to behave like the eldest mistress of your family but be only who I am... The real Ishita Chauhan.!" She said.

"Deal!" Dhruv agreed.

"Okay, I'll tell you on Saturday, If I'm ready Or not!" Ishita said.

"I'll send my men to you.. Either you handover the money Or you handover yourself to them." Dhruv said and disconnected the call.

"Hey, why are you so upset?" Varun comforted her as she was sitting in her college canteen lost in the thing Dhruv just said, by hugging her from behind and kissing her shoulder.

" Varun," Ishita turned to face him, "Do you love me?" She asked him looking deep in his eyes.

"Ofcourse I do! Why do ask? Do you have doubts on me?" Varun asked taking her in his arms.

" Do you.. Happen to have 4 crores?" Ishita asked.

"Wh..What?" Varun asked surprised. "Why do you need so much of money suddenly?"

"Nevermind... Its just.." Ishita was tossing in her head that she should tell him Or not.

"Brother, I keep on telling you for like millions if times, Why dont you listen to me? Go to America and get yourself a surgery. You can walk again... You know you can!" Tanmay like everyday again started to convince Dhruv for the surgery.

"You know I dont want to live! Its useless!" Dhruv said.

"You can die for Riya who is dead but you cannot live for me.. Your brother who is alive?" Tanmay asked irritated.

"I am living...Thesee days only for you my brother.. Or else I would have died long ago!" Dhruv said.

Tanmay sighed and got up to fetch him medicines.

"Anyway, Jiya, She called again. She was asking about your health. I said you were doing fine!" Tanmay said.

"Why do you talk to her... Tell her to just f*ck off!" Dhruv yelled in irritation.

"Brother! She is still willing to marry you. Even after you are like this. Anyways, she is the first choice for you.. Even for our mom and dad, They like her why dont you marry her and go to America for the surgery.? You should seriously forget Riya and start your new life!" Tanmay said.

"Do you want me to get married that bad?" Dhruv asked.

"Yes! Get married, and start a new life. Riya is gone! Forget her and move on!' Tanmay said.

" Fine! I will gat married this Saturday." Dhruv sighed.

"Really?" Tanmay asked happily.

"Yeah, but not with Jiya."

"Then...Who?"

"I have a girl in mind! If I am ever to get married, I'll only marry her, And no one else!" Dhruv said.

"At least tell me who she is? Is she from an elite family.. Or.." Tanmay asked curiously.

"No! She is poor! And orphan!" Dhruv said

" But I dont think grandma would approve of this even if Mom and Dad agreed. For her, family status is of utmost importance!" Tanmay said.

"I dont care! If I have to marry someone, I'll only marry her. Or else, I'm fine dying here like this." Dhruv said and moved his head to the other side gesturing him to leave now.

Tanmay understood, and without saying anymore, got up to leave

He closed the door behind and turned to Jadhav, his butler.

"Dhruv agreed to get married, but not with Jiya.. Some other girl he described as poor and orphan.. Do you know who she is?" Tanmay asked Jadhav.

"Dhruv Sir Talked to a girl on the morning on the video conference! Though I am not sure that if she us the person, but she is exactly what you just said, poor and orphan. I met her today." Jadhav said.

"Great! I want to meet her too. Let's see what she is like!" Tanmay said
