Chapter 440 - Sleeping on same bed...

Meanwhile...

Kareem who had just gotten up from his sleep, straightened his back and picked up the morning's newspaper. As soon as he switched to the entertainment section, he gaped at it in horror. "Mom!!! Mom!!??" 

Elizabeth, who was yet talking to Xio Lee and Lillian came upstairs hurriedly.

"What is it sweetheart!?" She stepped inside the room rapidly, seing Kareem still on the bed. "Ohh! You scared me. I thought something happened to you. Thank God you are fine!!" 

"You told me to not harm the man!! Why are you even defending him?? Look what he did to Rose!! He tricked Rose into marrying him!!! See this!!!" Kareem bursted in anger, showing the newspaper to his mother.

"I know it already sweetheart!! It was actually Rose's idea. I had a word with her. She was not tricked at all. Stop believing that sweety!! Rose is happy with him." Elizabeth sat besides Kareem, holding his hand. 

Kareem did not speak a word but starred at the blank wall ahead. His anger was captivating his head and heart. 

"Sweetheart come to terms with the fact that the girl loves Rhehan. I know, heartbreaks are tough. I remember the time when I saw your dad, cheating right in front of my eyes. I was heartbroken too! But then life does not stop here. You find a person good enough for you, just don't force things. Let them happen naturally!" Elizabeth patted the boy's hand lovingly. "And don't forget. If you harm the boy, you harm Rose's husband too. Don't give her this unhappiness. Let them live happily sweetheart!!" She kissed Kareem on his forehead and left the room.

Kareem was calmly listening to his mother, not saying a single word at all. As soon as Elizabeth left the room, Kareem caught hold of the newspaper and crumbled it angrily with his hands. 

Meanwhile....

Rose was already packing her clothes and other day to day products, when her phone buzzed.

"Yes Rhehan?!" 

"Rose.....!" Rhehan paused for a while.

"Tell me, what happened!!?" Rose frowned.

"I have told my team to get new stuff for you. You don't have to do anything much in packing your things. Also, the press meet is today in the evening." Rhehan spoke up, hesitantly. 

"Ohh!! Just like the previous time? All new stuff?" Rose smiled, closing her packed bags.

"Haha! Yeah!! Like last time. Ok, i'll come and pick you up!!" Rhehan sighed, feeling the strange connection between them. He just could not stop loving her at all. He was still wondering, what all the girl would require, in order to stay at his place now.

"Great! I am almost done!! See you!" Rose hung up the call and let out a sigh. "I can not just stop loving him!" 

After several mushy hugs from Lillian, Rose sat in Rhehan's car, while her luggage was being placed in the other MUV, brought by Rhehan's driver. "You did not have to bring all this stuff. I told you...." 

"Ahh!! These are really important things. It's fine. Let us go!" Rose smiled warmly. 

Rhehan drove the car, feeling the awkward atmosphere between them. "So living together? Ehh?" 

"Haha!! Yeah!! Pretty unexpected! But I guess we have to pretend atleast for six months!" Rose sighed.

"Hmmm! Right. Pretend!!! So are we sleeping on the same bed?" Rhehan asked suddenly.
