ME LOVE YOU 78 Ofcourse your king

His cold and distant voice made Karan's legs go jelly. Ren's eyes kept giving him sharp daggers while he was tight lipped. He took a deep breath, ofcourse in his heart and said in an almost professional voice, "Second Boss ordered me to deliver the invitation to First Lady Boss's office".

"Invitation?", as Ren mumbled he raised an eyebrow and examined the flower basket properly. That is when he found out that, the flower basket was their invitation he prepared for their wedding. Ren said sternly, "I will take care of it".

Karan nodded his head as he gave the flower basket to Ren and left the place as soon as possible. Ren walked towards his office with a smirk.

....

It was past 1 when Ria and her troupe came back to office. When she entered the office, Peggy along with two fuming girls were waiting for her. "You guys are gonna burn me with that look!", Ria commented with a smile. "You were supposed to be here earlier... like.... an hour ago", Reyan said through her gritted teeth.

Reyan had a beautiful chocolate brown hair with traces of dirty blond colour here and there upto her waist. It flowed like a waterfall without an restraints. While she was dressed in a green fluffy top and a dark blue Jean with brown boots.

Next to her, Lucy was wearing a turtle neck plain black T-shirt with a half white pencil jean paired with black stilettos. Her crystal black hair was in a high pony tail. She was folding her hands across her chest while glaring at Ria.

"Shall we call a truce, girls?", Ria asked with a sheepish smile. Lucy shook her head and said with raised eyebrows, "Sometimes, I really wonder why are you, the elder sister when you clearly don't act like one!" Everyone started to laugh except Ria who looked like she was sulking.

Melody came forward and asked, "Okay guys, Chill. We shall start the make over now and... where is my studio?" Peggy opened her mouth to say something but they were interrupted by a knock.

Ria said with a high voice, "Come in". Darren opened the door casually and walked with a beautiful flower basket filled with Red roses. He saw the beauties inside the room and raised his eyebrows while scanning the room as he walked towards Ria. "What is it, Darren?", Ria asked.

Darren gave a slight bow, adding a slight curve to Ria's lips. He said confidently, "My king has ordered this orderly to pass this to his Queen, My lady". On hearing him everyone smiled while Ria squinted his eyes at him and she asked, "May I know who this King is, My knight?"

Darren's handsome face flashed a beautiful smile as he said while wiggling his eyebrows, "Ofcourse your King, My Lady". Ria took a step towards him and went on her toes to playfully pinch both his cheek and then she asked him, "What is this about, Darren?"

Darren's eyes widened as he didn't expect this move and confessed, "I don't know, Sister-in-law! Brother asked me to deliver this to you".

Everyone laughed out loud and Ria said after taking her hands back, "Take it back, If he wants to give something he can give this to me directly". Darren smirked and said, "He said that you will say this and he told me to say, 'You should have asked me first, if you wanted me to deliver it you personally' ".

He then dropped the basket on the desk and left the room swiftly. Ria was thinking who that might be when Ashlee asked, "Who did you ask for a bouquet?" She shrugged with a pursed lips and glanced at the roses in full bloom.

Ren said, "Go take a look, Ria. There seems to something more than it meets to the eye". Ria shook her head and said, "No need. Where is the make over room prepared, Peggy?" She said respectfully, "It's in the next building, near the studio".

Ria nodded her head and introduced others, "You must have already met Lucy and Reyan, my sisters. This is Melody, Ashlee and Ren, my besties". Peggy's eyes widened on hearing the name Ren, Ria gave a mischievous smile and said to the rest, "This is Peggy, my secretary". Everyone gave a slight nod.

As Ria walked towards the door, Ren held her arm and said, "Remember how we talked about how you guys running in a circle? Have a look at it, Ria. If it is really an apology then cut him some slack. We are not the only one who missed you so badly when you were gone".

Ria stared at her for few seconds and when she understood that Ren is not going to let her go, she took a deep breath and went to the desk to look at the basket. Everyone's eyes where focused on the basket. It is an red oak antique double egg shaped basket with a lid and a handle across the centre with bows on the edges. The basket was decorated with red roses completely.

Only the base of the basket was visible while the other areas were covered with roses. Ria slowly lifted the lid as she held her breath without realising it. There was a spacious compartment beneath it. The first thing that was visible was the blue roses that filled the base compartment surrounding the articles that was there.

In a red gauze a golden coloured handmade card was visible. On it their wedding invitation was printed in a metallic rust cursive. Ria's eyes turned gentle as she caressed the card with her fingers. She turned the card and saw his smooth and bold handwriting, "Don't forget to be there, My bride".

Ria's cheeks became red while others giggling was heard behind her.

"Looks like it is the premium class invitation of what we got", Ashlee said with a bright smile. Ria looked back and asked with a tinge of disappointment, "All of you got your invitation like this?" Melody nodded with a teasing smile and said, "Yeah..... but what we got was lillies and daisies, definitely on the red or blue ones over there".

Ria gave a slight nod as her cheeks colour got brighter. "There is still more", Ren said pointing her chin towards the basket. There was an exquisite circular box decorated with bows and hearts. As she took it out there was still an silver coloured small rectangular box and a Violet coloured velvet jewelry box was present.
