Billionaire's Criminal Wife

chapter 3

Huda pov:

That infuriating man. How dare he!

I was fuming after he left. He cannot use my parents against me. That’s absurd, all the thoughts of him being nice fell out of my mind. But he was right, I had to think about my parents, if Alya got to them, she will definitely hurt them. But marrying him? Is it necessary?

How I had wanted to find love and then get married living a happy life. But, life got the best of me. I wish I had never met Alya. Urghhh I wanted to scream in frustration. My one dream is about to get crushed and I can not do anything to save it. If only I could talk to my parents. I Was now pacing in the big, no giant room, I don not know who lived here but it was a nice room, larger than mine with king size bed in between. I suddenly felt sleepy, deciding to call it a night I walked towards the bed and laid down. The soft fabric instantly relaxing my body and I inhaled deeply and sighed. But, opened my eyes when I realized ther familiar cologne. I shot up and looked around, ofcourse, how I had not noticed this. I facepalmed and slumped back down on bed. The bedroom belonged to Mr. Rameez, I can recognized his cologne anywhere. In my fury, I didn’t realize I stepped in his room. Rolling my eyes at myself I slumped back down and decided to sleep since my head was throbbing now. Soon sleep took over me and I was long gone.

Next morning

I woke up to my door opening and smell of breakfast hitting my nose. When I opened my eyes, Diana was standing at the doorway with tray in her hand feeling nervous, which was understandable considering I was a handful yesterday. I grinned sheepishly and said, “uh, hi. Please come in.” I smiled and got up to sit in bed. Diana smiled warmly and walked in putting the breakfast on my side table. She then stood back and looked at me, “Mr. Rameez wanted you to have breakfast in room and then meet him in study. If you go straight down hallway, it’s the last to left.” She gave me a last smile before leaving the room. I need to get him on my side, I won’t give up easily. With a sigh I got up and went to freshen up.

Since I was in Mr, Rameez room, every thing was “for men”, the bathroom screamed of him. Halfway through the shower, I realized I don’t have my clothes. Groaning I finished my shower and peeked out of the room. Sighing I put on my jeans and decided to borrow mr. Rameez shirt. Walking in closet I borrowed an oversize jumper. It reached a little below my thighs so it was perfect. I quickly ate my breakfast just in time for Diana to come back to get the tray. Her eyes widen slightly when she saw me wearing jumper. I smiled sheepishly and got up. “is he still in his study?” I asked Diana and he nodded with a smile. Smiling back I made my way towards the study.

The walls of hallway were plain but with a few paintings hanging here and there. Stopping in front of the door I knocked and took a deep breath when I heard a come in. Opening the door, I stepped in and stood awkwardly in the middle of the room since he was busy looking at hi papers. I awkwardly cleared my throat and he looked up.

Rameez pov:

I looked up and my eyes widened up a little. She was wearing my jumper, my favorite jumper. It suited her petite figure and mage her cur- I blinked. Wait what? I cleared my throat to get rid of those thoughts and sat a bit straighter and motioned her to sit in front of me. “ I see you looked in my closet” I raised my brow and smirked trying to loosen up the atmosphere. However, she rolled her eyes and  replied, “well, someone thought it was good idea to kidnap me and not getting me anything.” she huffed as she finished and started looking around.

I mentally smacked my head at this, of course, she did not had any other clothes and how inconsiderate of me, I cleared my throat and smiled sheepishly, “I’ll ask someone to fetch your things.” She nodded and leaned forward a little, “so, why did you call me here?” she asked frowning, “we have a lot to discuss, Ms. Huda. I hope you have made your decision because we are short on time. Alya will get suspicious and start nosing around. So I suggest make your decision fast so we could work on our plan forward.” Her eyes widened and she leaned back then composed herself quickly. With a raised brow she said, “first, we need to discuss the offer, I need to talk to my parents. And then I’ll make decision.”  

“your parents? That’s understandable, but it is risky. Alya ,might be tracking your phone calls.”  I saw  her roll her eyes and slump back in her chair, “but I can arrange call through private number. They would not be able to detect it. But, before we do that you need to understand what your decision would mean.” I put on my business face and sat up straight to tell her.  She nodded at me, “so, first, since you know I could easily put you in jail and get over with it, but Alya is very clever she’ll put you in jail and escape without any charges. We need to trap her to get enough evidence to get them behind the bars.” I told her the basics she listened to me intently like she always did in office too.

“what if I testify to their deeds, they made me do it and I have all the cats and calls recorded of our conversation.” She took her phone and put it on table, my eyes widened a little at her, “That’s….that’s actually very clever of you to record them, but that’s not enough this would not put them in jail for long. I want them behind bars for a long time.” I knew my eyes darkened a bit as I saw Huda looked me contently as if she thought I would share more. “you have something else against them, don’t you? It’s not just this.” She raised her brow. “she’s too smart for her own good.  I chuckled trying to lighten mood, “Ms. Huda, you are a smart woman, but not smart enough to not get involved with Alya. So we need to be one step ahead of them.”

Sitting straight I pulled out a folder and put it on table sliding it towards her. “ these includes a few pictures of people that are seen walking around the abandoned building. The building is likely to be their place of exchange. Ms. Huda do you remember any thing particularly strange when dealing with them. Something that could help us gather information?” I stopped and waited for her to open the folder. She looked me skeptically and then opened the folder sliding out the pictures, she looked up at me once before looking through the pictures. She paused on one picture and focused on it. Her reaction was for a split second before she changed it. I would have missed it if I had blinked. Her eyes widened a little and then went back to normal.

She shook her head lightly, then put back all those pictures back on my desk, “No, I don’t know any of this.” I narrowed my eyes and said slowly, “Are you sure, Ms. Huda?”
