Christian's POV-  

" We are not going on a vacation, we are going to Delhi to meet Smriti." Mia said.

Not again!! 

" Why are you being so admant on this proposal?" I asked them.

" Because we want you settled Christian. And we want this to happen with a good girl and not some sl..." Mia said but got told off by mother about her choice of words.

" Christian, give Smriti a shot. Your great grandma will not dissapoint you." Mother said.

I was reluctant but nonetheless gave into their demand.

" Thank you brother." Mia said and then they left.

These three women of my life are most important for me and they know it. They very well know how to use it against me.

I then called Mrs Aston.

" Mrs Aston, clear off my schedule for next week. I am not in the States." I told her.

I then called Sofia.

" Sofia, we need to meet." I told her.

" Yes, we do." She said.

" Okay, come to Grey Enterprises during lunch." I said and hung up.

I then started for office.

It was lunch when Mrs Aston informed me about the arrival of Sofia.

" Send her in." I said.

" Christian baby, how have you been?" She asked seductively.

" Sofia, everything is over between us." I told her.

" What!" She exclaimed.

" Don't act so shocked. You knew that it was coming.' I said.

" But baby, I love you!" She said.

" Please Sofia, we both know that why we are together. You satisfy me in bed and I satisfy you by money." I said.

" Christian......" She started.

" Enough Sofia." I barked at her.

" Fine! Go to hell. I know that you will regret this later and come back to me." She said and left the office.

I further engrossed myself into work.

The whole week passed without much happening. Just work and a family dinner.

Mia's POV-

It is Monday today, which means that we are flying to Delhi to meet Smriti. I am so exited!!

" Mia, are you packed? We need to leave within 2 hours. Christian will not ask his plane to be on standby for much long. If we don't reach there on time, he may fly to Taiwan to finalize the upcoming deal." Dad said.

" Don't worry dad. I'm all done. Christian has no way out of this now." I told him. He nodded.

We started for the airport.

" You all are here. I thought that you'd fail to show up on time because of Mia." Christian said as soon as he saw us.

" Don't worry son. We are flying to Delhi and not Taiwan." Grandma said.

" Fine. Lets get going." He said and we boarded the plane.

" Welcome Ms Grey." Mark, the pilot said.

" Hello Mark, how are you and the kids doing?" I asked him politely.

" Very well. Thank you Mr Grey." He said formally and then I went ahead to take my seat.

IT IS GOING TO BE A LONG FLIGHT.

We landed at the Delhi airport after 16 long hours.

" What is the time here brother?" I asked Christain.

" It's 2 in the night. The hotel has been booked. Let's get going." He said.

I must admit that India really is a beautiful country. The international airport was no less than that of New York.

We checked into the hotel and I immediately crashed on bed. Tomorrow, we will meet Smriti!" 

Mia, open the door. We should get ready. Mrs Sharma has invited us for lunch." Mom said as she called me.

" Mom, let me sleep." I whined.

" Mia, it's already 12. We need to get Christian agree for lunch. So wake up." Grandma said over the phone.

" Okay, I'm up. Will meet you once I get ready." I told them and hung up.

I then got dressed in my best dress.

Mia's Attire-

" Mia, ask your brother to get ready." Dad said.

I nodded and knocked the door of hid suite.

" Brother, get ready. We have to leave." I told him.

" Mia, I'm busy. You all can take the car and go." He said.

I rolled my eyes at him.

" Brother, Smriti is not my potential wife, she is your's." I told him honestly.

" Mia stop irritating me." He said.

I then took away his laptop.

" Now get ready." I told him.

" Mia, you all need to stop taking undue advantage of mylove towards you." He said.

" Shut up and get ready." I said.

" Fine." He muttered.

He was wearing his business suit.

" Brother, we are not going there to finalize a deal there. I hope you remember that." I told him.

" Mia, you've got to stop pushing my limits." He said.

I chuckled.

" Fine. You can wear whatever you want." I told him.

Christian's Attire-

We went downstairs and what I saw amazed me. Grandma was wearing some different attire.

" Grandma, what are you wearing?" Christian asked her.

" It's called saree. It's an Indian traditional attire." She told us.

" You look so pretty." I told her.

" People, let's go." Dad said, coming to the lobby area of the hotel.

Mom nodded.

We reached the Sharma House within 20 minutes. I must say that the house is very beautiful.

Grandma rang the doorbell.

A lady wearing the same dress as grandma opened the door. I assume, she must be Mrs Sharma.

She touched grandma's feet. Wow! I am loving this Indian culture!!

" Please come in." She said.

Dad, Christian and Mr Sharma were sitting in the living room and talking, while I was with mom, grandma and Mrs Sharma in the kitchen. She was preparing tea and some snacks for all of us. It was in shape of a triangle.

" What is this aunty?" I asked her.

" Mia, it's known as samosa. I'm sure that you'll like it." She told me.

" Where is Smriti, Mrs Sharma?" Mom asked her.

" Actually, it was fault from my side. I forgot to inform her that we had guests over for lunch today. Before we woke up, she had left for her work. I've called her, she must be reaching soon." Mrs Sharma said.

" No problem child." Grandma said.

We took the snacks to the living room. We were talking when the doorbell rang. Mr Sharma went to open the door.

" Smriti, what have you done to yourself?" Mrs Sharma asked horrified, as soon as we all saw her.

She was all covered in mud.

" Mumma, aaj ek suspicious admi ko chase karte-karte, mai mitti mein gir gayi. Haath se nikal gaya wo kami...." She said.

" Smriti! Language!!" Mrs Sharma scolded her.

We could't understand a word and Grandma looked horrified.

I looked at Christian. He looked on amused.
