Billionaire’s Love From India

Before Sakshi could ask something to them, she heard Lavanya’s cheerful voice. “Oh My God!” Lavanya covered her mouth with both her hands, seeing Jaime, Ray, Kristina, and Edward standing at the door.

Lavanya excitedly walked up to them and hugged Jaime. Jaime hugged her back tightly. “Surprise, sister-in-law.”

She hugged Kristina and invited all of them inside. “You should’ve informed me. I had come to the airport with Eden to pick you all.”

“We wanted to surprise you.” Kristina said.

She introduced them all to Sakshi and Niharika. Sakshi touched Jaime’s cheek. “You’re so beautiful.”

She turned to Lavanya. “Lavanya, take them to the living room.”

“Okay, Mom.” Lavanya took them inside the living room.

“Where is brother? He invited us all here, and he is missing.” Jaime asked while sitting on the sofa.

Lavanya raised her eyebrows. “Eden invited you all here?”

“Yes. He said you both are getting married again, and he wants us all to be here. We were excited to witness an Indian wedding, so we came here.” Kristina smiled.

“He went out with my brother for some work. Will come back soon.” Lavanya replied. Sakshi entered the living room, holding a tray that had the glasses of juice with Niharika following her, holding a tray full of different kinds of Indian snacks.

Edward was really enjoying the snacks. “Why don’t they make it in London?”

“It’s good they don’t make it in London because if they started making it in London, you will eat all of it and will grow into a fatty Edward.” Eden entered the room. Jaime hugged him happily. “Brother, I missed you so much.”

“Oh finally, you’re here. I was waiting for you. Was it not enough for you to get married once that you are going to get married again?” Edward hugged him.

“You’re enjoying Indian snacks here because of my wedding, so just enjoy everything.” Eden sat next to Edward.

Lavanya looked at Daksh, and asked him to come near her. She held his hand. “This is my brother, Daksh.”

She introduced everyone to Daksh, and they all started talking happily.

The wedding rituals of Lavanya and Eden’s wedding started. Lavanya was wearing a white and yellow lehenga with floral bracelets on both her hands and a floral necklace around her neck. Her hair was decorated with flowers too. She looked like an Indian fairytale princess.

The function was organized in the garden. Lavanya came and sat beside Eden, who was wearing the yellow kurta with the white pajama. Sakshi and Niharika applied the turmeric paste on them, later telling Jaime and Kristina to do it. They both smiled, applying the paste onto their faces.

Lavanya took some paste on her hand, and applied it on Jaime’s cheek. “I want to see you getting married soon.” Jaime smiled, hugging her. Shreya, Jai and Aakash applied it on them too, wishing a happy life to Lavanya.

Daksh was silently watching everything. He was feeling a little emotional, trying to control his tears but was happy for Lavanya. Sakshi called him, asking him to apply the paste on Lavanya. He kneeled down in front of Lavanya. He smiled a little while applying the paste onto her cheeks, but when he felt that he would not be able to control his tears, he moved aside and let his tears flow. Niharika came to him. She placed a hand on his shoulder, trying to calm him. “Daksh, I know you can’t see her going away from you again, but she has to go. Please, don’t cry. She will not feel happy if she sees you like this.”

He wiped his tears. “I am fine.” He went towards Edward and Ray and told them about the tricks to apply the turmeric paste onto Eden.

They both happily moved forward and colored Eden all yellow by applying the turmeric paste all over his body. “It’s enough, guys. Stop it, now.”

When they didn’t stop, he looked at Daksh. “Brother, please tell them to stop.”

Daksh smirked. “Why? Did you stop when I told you to stop at my wedding? I am not gonna let you go.”

Daksh looked at someone, and soon, a bucket full of water was poured on Eden, making him all wet. Lavanya looked at Eden, then at Daksh. “Bhai, what is this?”

“What? He wanted to get married at an Indian wedding. Now, I am making him experience what it is like to get married in an Indian wedding.” Daksh didn’t dare to look at her.

Lavanya sighed, turning to Eden. “Baby, go to the room and change your clothes.” Lavanya also went to take a shower with Niharika in Sakshi’s room.

They all came back to the living room. Daksh took Eden with him, and Lavanya started telling Kristina and Jaime about the upcoming functions.

Lavanya was wearing an embroidered green lehenga for the mehndi ceremony. She was enjoying her mehndi function with everyone. Jaime and Kristina were also feeling happy because it was something new for them to experience. The henna Artist asked Kristina her husband’s name. “Edward.”

The artist wrote Edward’s name on her palm. “Jaime, you should also ask the artist to write Ray’s name on your palm.” Lavanya suggested.

Jaime furrowed her eyebrows. “Can I do it? I mean, they’re asking the husband’s name, and Ray isn’t my husband.”

“That is going to change soon.” Lavanya teased her. “You can do it.”

Jaime smiled, asking the artist to write Ray’s name on her hand. Ray, who came to give her water, smiled when he saw his name on her hand.

Eden came near Lavanya. “When will I get henna on my hand?”

Lavanya asked him to sit beside her. She looked around and found the artist, who was working on Kristina’s hand getting free. She called her. “He is the groom. Please make a beautiful design on his hand.”

The artist smiled and started making a heart-shaped design on Eden’s hand. He looked at Lavanya. “I want your henna’s color to be much darker this time, so the entire world can know how much I love you.” He whispered in her ear, and she blushed.
