Her voice In Boardroom

Marriage

Rowan, Gray, and Sadhana-none of them slept that night.

Sadhana didn't eat anything from the previous night.

Morning came with first-day work nervousness, brunch time spent with directors and John. Other than the juice offered by Rowan, nothing was in her stomach. She didn't feel hungry because of the back-to-back events.

"Tomorrow I am going to get married-even if it is contractual, it is still marriage." Nervousness occupied her mind.

Time passed.

Morning arrived.

Gray handled the appointment and other formalities at the civil office for marriage registration with the support of his right hand, Dwijesh. Dwijesh was the security head who managed the entire security and killed people brutally. One sign from Gray was enough for Dwijesh to get the work done.

Rowan handled the early morning stand-up call and one investment meeting with his old client at the office. They had stayed at the penthouse the previous night. Everything was handled in the office by 10 o'clock. Till 2 o'clock, Sadhana canceled his work. But from 2 o'clock till midnight, his schedule was packed, and Sadhana also needed to join him.

Finally, Gray and Rowan sat in his limited-edition car, with security surrounding them in six cars.

Gray's face looked peaceful for the first time in the last seven years, which gave Rowan some happiness.

Sadhana left her PG before 9:30 but got stuck in traffic due to an accident. She felt restless. She got ready in a pink saree that she had purchased last month. She wore a small Kundan one-gram gold set with earrings. Her hair was tied in a messy braid with a flower garland.

She felt tense. The time was almost 10:55. It would take at least thirty more minutes to reach the place. If the case was not cleared in the next five minutes, it would be impossible for her to reach the civil bureau on time.

Meanwhile, she received a call from an unknown number. Not knowing who it was, she answered.

"Mum, where are you?" Grayson asked in a low and pleasant tone.

"Sir, I am near (location), stuck in traffic due to an accident, sir. I don't think I can reach the civil office on time," she spoke hurriedly, which made Gray angry and turn devilish.

"Mum, I am Gray, not your sir. I am not Rowan, your CEO. I am your son. Remember this, Mum."

"No mother will call her son like that with respect, right, Mum?"

His deep voice sent shivers through Sadhana-not out of fear, but concern.

"Mum," Gray called her again on the phone.

"Yes... Gray. Noted."

"Good, Mum. Don't worry. We will handle everything."

Gray turned towards Rowan and asked him to check with the DGP and traffic department. He didn't want to handle this personally because it involved his mum. He didn't want her to get scared if she knew.

Rowan handled it officially.

They reached the civil office by 11:05. Everyone's face turned pale with fear. They bowed their heads when they saw Gray.

Everyone knew who Gray and the Smith brothers were. There were two or three news headlines daily about the Smith Corporation. Gray never killed innocents. He helped the poor through the Smith Foundation.

But people couldn't stay calm when they saw the Smith brothers. Both were dangerous-Rowan like silent water, doing everything quietly; Gray like fire, playing with guns.

Sadhana reached there by 11:35. Rowan's breath caught when he saw her in the saree. My girl, my angel, my queen, his mind whispered.

Gray got up, went towards the door, caught her hand, and made her sit beside Rowan.

Within thirty minutes, everything was completed. Their marriage was completed with signatures and photographs. The officials handed over the marriage certificate books to them.

Dwijesh gave a death warning in one go-if the news leaked anywhere, they would be killed.

They stepped outside the office. The cars were lined up in front.

In the middle car, Gray and Rowan made her sit, and they sat in another car. Sadhana wondered why, but there was no one to answer her question. The partition was up. No one was beside her.

They reached the office. Sadhana had many thoughts running through her mind.

Before stepping into the office, she received a message from Rowan asking her to go to the penthouse and change her dress.
