Mistress novel Chapter 49

Meher's p.o.v

I am sitting in the living room with Mehrab who is busy playing with his toys. His wound is now bandaged. Thanks to Allah that the wound wasn't very deep.

I saw Sehreyar coming towards me with a big smile on his face. I smiled back looking at him.

" What are you doing, love?" He asked sitting beside me. He patted Mehrab's head and checked his wound first. I saw tension in his eyes for Mehrab.

Then he kissed my forehead gently and I again felt something that I shouldn't feel. I am still stupid who always fall for his gentle side. I shouldn't forget about his misdeeds.

I replied blushing," Nothing. Just watching our little son's playing with his toys."

" You look so cute when you blush," he complimented me tucking a few strands of my hairs behind my ear. He touched my lips with his thumb gently and smiled brightly.

I looked away and said meekly," Thank you."

He caressed my cheeks and going to say something when we heard his Dadi's crying voice from behind.

We looked behind and found her standing at the staircase with her belongings.

" Sahu, you are committing a big mistake by trusting this girl. Mark my words. She will backstab you. She is planning something against you," She said glaring at me angrily.

Sehreyar replied sternly," I have had enough of your nonsense. It was you who backstabbed me. You have manipulated me enough. Not anymore."

I smirked fixing my gaze on his grandma. She deserves all this. I haven't forgotten how she told lies about me in front of Sehreyar and he beat me into pulp. It's a small payback for this old witch.

" I have raised you, Sahu. I have given my all love and care to you. That's how you are repaying me?" She asked shedding her tears.

Sehreyar snapped at her," And I respected, trusted you. But, what you did in return? You tried to harm my wife and son!! You didn't think twice before hurting a little boy. How can you do all this? How?"

I am watching their emotional drama and enjoying it. They have played with my emotions enough. Now, it's time for them to feel the pain which I felt.

" Don't waste your time and leave my house right now. And don't interfere in any of my matters again," Sehreyar ordered his grandma who is still crying. I can feel that she is genuinely hurt by her grandson's behaviour. I didn't feel any bad for her. I am not that innocent Meher anymore to feel bad for a person like her.

With slow steps, she left the house with her belongings. I saw Sehreyar's gloomy face and decided to fake console him.

" I am sorry that your dadi has to leave the house for me," I said sadly resting my one hand on his shoulder.

He looked at me and said with a sad smile," You don't have to say sorry. It wasn't your fault."

Saying that he left the room without glancing back. I took a deep breath and said smiling," Yes, it wasn't my fault from the very first. It was all your fault."

After some hours

" Don't let him go near the pool. I am coming back," I ordered the maid whom I have told to take care of Mehrab.

I heard her saying ok and then cut the call. I have to return as soon as possible. It's not safe to leave Mehrab alone. But, still, I am a working woman so I have to handle everything. 

I came to the office with Sehreyar to do some works. I have submitted another design and it was also highly praised by the clients. My works are appreciated in Architect society. Many reputed Architects has contacted me to join with them. But, Sehreyar didn't let me to involve with other architects. He can't tolerate me being away from him. This man is really something!

Very soon I will send him so much away from me which he can't even imagine.

I am now ready to get inside the car when I heard a male voice from behind. I became startled by the sudden voice.

" Why did you do all this? The voice said angrily and I turned my head behind.

I uttered surprisingly," Rehaan, You!"

" If you were planning to return to Sehreyar then why did you accept my proposal in the first place? He asked me angrily. I can see his disappointed face.

Hearing him I am understanding that he has already come to know about Sehreyar and me. I am sure he is thinking that I am married to Sehreyar willingly otherwise he wouldn't talk like that.

He doesn't know the truth. Well, I can't say anything now. Let him think whatever he wants to think.

" I am sorry, Rehaan," I apologised lowering my head.

He snapped at me," I accepted you even after knowing everything about you. But, in return what you did? You played with my feelings. You are a pathetic woman."

" Rehaan, you can think whatever you want. But, whatever I have done is for everyone's well being," I replied taking a deep breath.

He asked me with a little bit of hope," Meher, I still believe that you aren't willingly living with Sehreyar. If he has threatened you then tell me. I will save you from him. You just have to say the truth."

I can't tell him anything. I can't disclose whatever I am thinking. After solving every problem I will meet him and tell him everything.

" Sehreyar and I are married. I am his wife and living willingly with him," I declared making a hard expression on my face.

Hearing me he gritted his teeth in ager running his fingers through his hairs. He gave me a disgusted look but said nothing. He just turned his head to leave the place immediately.

Before leaving, he looked behind and angrily said to me," you are a pathetic woman. You don't have any self-respect. Sehreyar is the best choice for a woman like you."

I didn't reply to him. I just kept watching his retreating figure. I took a deep breath and said with a sad smile," Sometimes we need to become pathetic."

Author's p.o.v

" Love, we are getting married after one week. Shouldn't we go for shopping? Sehreyar asked holding Meher's waist from behind who was drying her wet hairs.

Meher has just come out of the shower wearing only a towel. Her beautiful legs are on display and Sehreyar has lost his control already seeing her. 

" Then, let me get ready for shopping," Meher said playfully pushing away Sehreyar a little.

Sehreyar chuckled seeing her blushed face. She still feels shy around him and blushes. Though she hates him but still a part of her want him. 

" Should I help you in getting ready? Sehreyar asked mischievously smelling her flowery scent.

Meher giggled and said biting her lower lip," I don't need your help. I know it will lead us on the bed."

Sehreyar is going to say something when Sajal said with an evil smile," Asli drama to aab shuru hoga( the real drama will start now), Sehreyar Al Seikh."

Saying that she took out a gun from her bag and pointed it towards Sehreyar. She is now smirking like a complete crazy person.

Sehreyar and Meher became dumbfounded seeing her action. They weren't expecting this. Everything happened so quickly that they become bewildered for some time.

" I will kill you," Sajal said with determination still holding the gun at Sehreyar.

Sehreyar composed his shocked expression very soon and he is now understanding that if this situation isn't handled quickly then anything bad can happen. Sajal is crazy and she can do anything.

" Sajal, stop this madness and drop this gun. Don't make things difficult for you and me," Sehreyar said trying to convince Sajal and Meher is just looking at Sajal with her horrified expression.

Sajal didn't listen to Sehreyar and started asking with her teary eyes, "What was my fault Sehreyar? Tell me. I loved you wholeheartedly. I always dreamt of you. I never looked at another man for you. Then why you couldn't love me? Why? Just why?"

Sehreyar knew that Sajal is obsessed with him but he never expected that her obsession will increase at this level.

" Sajal put down the gun. We can talk normally. Calm down, Please," Sehreyar requested trying to get a little bit closer to Sajal.

If he becomes successful in snatching the gun from her then the situation can be handled easily. Sehreyar is mentally cursing Sajal repeatedly.

" What have you found in this whore that you are mad for her. What's so special about her? Huh!! I had beauty, brain, reputable family background, a good career. Everything! Then, why you couldn't love me?" Sajal asked Sehreyar crying and giving a disgusted look to Meher. She is feeling like to destroy everything just looking at Meher's face.

Meher isn't shocked hearing Sajal. It's not the first time that Sajal is insulting her. Meher is feeling like to yell on Sajal's face that she doesn't want to be with Sehreyar. She just wants a peaceful life with her son.

Sehreyar said getting more close to Sajal very carefully," Sajal, please. Calm down and drop the gun. We can talk peacefully. There is no need for this gun."

But, Sajal didn't listen to any of his sayings. She is chanting her own mantra. She is continuously asking him why he couldn't love her.

Then, Sajal shoved her another hand inside her bag and took out a small bottle which is containing some liquid.

She asked showing it to Sehreyar," Are you seeing this little bottle? It's containing deadly poison and I am going to drink it in front of you. You will be responsible for my death."

" Sajal, stop it," Sehreyar yelled and tried to snatch the gun and bottle both. But, Sajal is more fast and she flinched backwards before he could do anything. Sehreyar's eyes become widened seeing the bottle. He is now shocked beyond level. He never thought that Sajal will talk about suicide. Meher just looked at Sajal having a terrified expression on her face.

Then, Sajal drank the poison in one go before anyone could do anything. After that, she informed Sehreyar," This poison will take just 5 minutes to finish me."

" Come with me. You need to be hospitalised," Sehreyar said panicking. No matter what, she can't just take her life like that. Committing suicide is a sin and no one should do it. Moreover, she can't just accuse him like that.

" But, how can I just leave this world alone. Hmm. I will take you with me," Sajal said like a psychopath pointing the gun at Sehreyar's chest.

Before Sehreyar could react to her new madness, she said lovingly with a crooked smile," So what I couldn't get you in this life. But, in the afterlife, I will get you for sure. If I can't have you then I will not let someone else have you either."

After that, a gunshot echoed through the whole area and a person fell on the ground with a thud sound. A loud scream could be heard along with Sajal's psychotic laugh. The road is now covered with warm blood.

The poison in Sajal's body started working and very soon she just falls on the ground.

She is just seeing everything blurred and isn't understanding what's happening around her. She just closed her eyes having a satisfied expression on her face.
