Chapter 1
New York
" I am happy with my job uncle...seriously i am content! Then why on earth do i have to do this?" Complained a frustated Ridhima
"How can you think about that stupid tabloid of yours..."
"It's not a stupid or sleazy tabloid! Its a magazine Uncle. ARISTOCRATS is a well respected publication for heaven's sake. And i've won a few writing awards"
How dare Uncle Philip say anything against her Magazine?
"Yes your dedication to work is one reason why I suggested you for the position, dear!And you are familiar with the working of the rich and elite!
Plus you know many elidgible ladies personally! dont you?" Came the explanation from Uncle Philip
"But that doesnt mean that i have to play the role of a matchmaker!" argued Ridhima
"I am not asking you to be a matchmaker, dear! I only want you to be a _______what do we call that...oh yes... a consultant!" said uncle Philip
"He's nt the kind of man i want to work with. Plus he wont be willing for such an option" Ridhima said sharply
"But he is your prince! And a future ruler too! Don't make perceptions so quickly Ridhima! And as far as the Prince is concerned, you need not worry about him.
It is his idea after all!" said Uncle Philip cheerfully
"WHAT! IT WAS HIS IDEA?" Ridhima almost shouted and could envision the cover headline
PRINCE ARMAAN SHOPS FOR WIFE
maniac prince makes plan to settle down
"When he suggested that idea of his...you were the first person that popped up into my mind. Its an excellent chance for you to visit yor hometown!
Prince Armaan has determined not to make the same mistake, despite being pressurised by King Edbert to marry with all expedience.
I'm certain to it that you would be of utmost help to the Prince at this point." came the reply from Uncle Philip
"I'll try but I cant promise!" said Ridhima
"I know you will crack it sweetheart and dont let your past weaken you! You shold be happy and full of chirpiness with this new project of yours And be ready
for we have to leave tomorrow!" told Uncle Philip
"Tomorrow? but thats too early!" replied a surprised Ridhima
"What is more important? Publishing photos of Aristocrat or helping the country?
Ridhima sighed and shook her head. Put like that, she had to agree. May be she should tell her boss it was a family emergency-of king size proportions!
Caldonia
"Well have you thought about what i said?" King Edbert sat in his antique chair and glared at his tall son, with a scowl
"yup! i have." Prince Armaan said, irritated that his father thought he even had to ask. The king had only threatened to destroy his dreams, after all
"You only have 8 months. Your role iis to carry on the line. the people expect it! You have no siblings, so you must stop wasting time and get to it"
Armaan's stomach began to churn as he thought that he had little choice except to listen to his parents. He had been warned by his so called father that if
he would nt get married within this year then he wont be getting any allowance! No trips, no say in government, no vacations...absolutely nothing. Except for
what he gave to him directly.
According to his father, Armaan had been doing nothing in the past few years except for having affairs with every beautiful girl that he laid eyes upon...acc to him,
his every night was spent within the arms of different women!
Little did he knew what Armaan actually was upto!
"Are you listening to me?" asked an angry King not an angry father
Armaan broke out of his trance and said "You'll get what you want. But there will be my terms and conditions involved. If that is acceptable to you then I may think
about it!"
"What terms and conditions?"
"i'll have my own consultant"
"A consultant? What for? Is this more of your nonsense? I wont have it."
"You will have it." came an angry reply from Armaan who banged his fists hard on the table. "She is going to help me do precisely what you want me to do, so I
suggest you not try to fight me on this"
"SHE? Who is this woman?" asked the queen
"The one who will save me"
now that is all for the first part
