Chapter 50

In His World

When they landed in London, the cold air greeted them differently — sharper, quieter, unfamiliar.

The car drove them to his penthouse — tall glass windows, city lights stretching endlessly beyond.

This was — the city that shaped for eight long years.

Inside the penthouse, everything was sleek and modern. No emotional memories. No family history.

Just him.

Veeresh freshened up quickly, already slipping into his work mode.

Meanwhile, quietly unpacked his suit, ironed it lightly, and laid it neatly on the bed. She prepared tea the way he liked and even made simple idli for breakfast, wanting him to feel a touch of home in a foreign city.

Inayat had already fallen asleep, exhausted from the journey.

When Veeresh came out dressed in his sharp suit, she handed him the tea.

He took a sip and looked at her — something softened in his expression.

Idli in London.
Home in a foreign land.

He ate calmly, almost peacefully.

“I’ll be late,” he said while adjusting his cufflinks. “Have your medicine on time. Take rest.”

There was concern in his tone now — natural, not forced.

“I’ll call, Kincsem.”

The way he said it still made her heart flutter.

Before leaving, he stepped closer and kissed her cheek.

Not rushed.

Not distracted.

Intentional.

She smiled. “Bye.”

He paused at the door for a second longer than necessary — as if memorizing the sight of her standing there in his space.

Then he left.

Poornima stood there quietly, touching her cheek where he had kissed her.

She realized something simple yet powerful.

He didn’t bring her to London to show status.

He brought her because he wanted her in the world he built alone.

And that meant more than any grand gesture.

Jab koi apni duniya mein jagah de deta hai… tab rishta sach mein apna ho jaata hai.
