Chapter 71: Chapter 71

“Money is nothing if you have a beautiful heart. I have fallen for your innocence,” Daniel confessed and Sara’s jaw dropped.

“What are you saying?” she asked and he got close to her.

“I hope you understand what I am trying to say. I like you,” Daniel said clearly and Sara’s face turned red. A handsome stranger was saying he likes her.

“Do you like me?” Daniel asked, pulling her waist to him.

“I… I met you only one hour ago,” she replied and Daniel looked disappointed.

“So that means you do not like me?” he asked.

“No, it is not like this I…”

“It means you also like me,” he quickly cut her off and did not let her complete her sentence. She saw his smile and could not speak more. He was looking happy because she likes him. She only smiled and did not say anything to him.

“Let’s eat something. I am hungry,” Daniel said and Sara saw him getting up from the bed.

“What? Eat? How? We are locked here,” She asked and Daniel went towards the gifts. He picked up a gift from there and went back to the bed.

“What are you doing?” Sara asked as he unwrapped the gift. It was full of chocolates.

“Let’s eat,” Daniel said while giving her a piece. Sara saw written on the gift was his name. It was gifted by him.

“What if they get angry?” Sara said while taking the chocolate from him.

“Don’t worry, that stupid groom is my childhood friend. He has everything in his life. He does not need anything. I could not think of any gift for him so I bought chocolates for him. He would not say anything because I would kick his ass before that,” Daniel said and Sara laughed. They both talked a lot while eating. Daniel was telling him about his stupid friend's childhood story.

“I wish I could see their marriage.” Sara sounded sad.

“Do you want to? I can show you,” Daniel asked and Sara asked how? He pulled out his phone and Sara narrowed her eyes on him. He was hiding it intentionally.

“I hid it because there is no network,” Daniel said, but Sara did not believe him.

“Let’s watch his marriage.” Daniel placed his phone on the bed and they both were looking at the video. In the garden they were marrying, but they were able to see it from here. They were taking vows and exchanging rings. Daniel saw a smile on Sara’s face.

“Why do you want to see this marriage?” Daniel asked. She was still looking at the screen.

“Because of work I never got time to attend my friend's marriage. Most of them are married but not I. I like to see married couples,” Sara replied.

“Why do you work too much? I mean for a friend's marriage you can take a leave, right?” Daniel asked, and Sara was a little hurt from his words.

“Actually, I also want to marry, like my friends, but for that I need to earn money for my marriage. My friends are also middle class like me, but they have family support with them, not me. If I want to marry then I need to earn my own money. No man would like to marry a girl who can not afford basic things for her marriage. I do not want to look poor in front of him,” Sara said and finished her chocolate. She knew he was looking at her; she should not have told him about it. She did not know what he was thinking about her.

“Did you like it?” Daniel asked and Sara nodded her head. Sara enjoyed the chocolates too much.

“Yes, it’s too tasty. I like your choice,” she said and noticed he was silent. She looked at him, and he was looking at her lips. He was coming closer to her.

“What are you doing?” She asked, placing her hand on his chest. Suddenly she noticed she soiled his shirt from by her hand.

“I am sorry. I am really sorry…” she said, and started to look for tissue.

“It’s ok! No need to worry. It’s just a shirt,” Daniel said and Sara shook her head.

“I am really sorry. I did not do it intentionally. I know it’s costly. I will pay for this shirt,” Sara said, and Daniel saw tears in her eyes. She was not feeling good. He got close to her and suddenly licked her lips. He was so quick that she could not even understand what happened.

“I said it’s ok,” Daniel said and licked her lips again. Sara closed her eyes and did not know why she could not push him back. She was letting him do it. Suddenly, she felt his lips on her. She understood he was kissing her. She breathed hard, and in fear tried to move away.

“Don’t move. I will not harm you,” Daniel said and kissed her again. Sara was feeling his hot kiss and lost her control. She kissed him back, and Daniel deepened the kiss. He was waiting for when she would kiss him. He pulled her whole body against himself and started to kiss her neck. Sara’s hand went to his hair. Suddenly she felt his hand inside her dress. She opened her eyes and held his hand.

“No! Don’t do this. It’s wrong,” she said and held her dress tightly in fear. Now she came to her senses.

“No, it’s not wrong. I know you also want it. Why are you stopping yourself?” Daniel asked and saw she was thinking deep about something.

“I want to give my virginity to my husband only,” Sara said in a slow tone and Daniel got close to her.

“Then will you marry me?” Daniel asked, and Sara was shocked.

“What? You want to marry me?” she asked. He looked serious.

“Yes, I want to marry you. When I saw you earlier I decided to bring you in my life. I am serious about this,” Daniel said.

“But I do not know you,” Sara said. Daniel pulled out his name card, driving license, making her believe everything he told her was right. Sara saw he was a famous businessman from a foreign country. He showed her his ID too.

“Now do you believe me? I am not a con artist. I am serious with you,” Daniel said, and Sara bit her lips nervously.

“Why me? You do not even know me,” she asked. Daniel pulled out two ring boxes from his pocket.

“Because I love you,” Daniel said, and Sara's heart was beating like a horse.
