Precap for My New Boss - Season 3 - Part 24

Khushi’s POV

“You amuse me Miss Gupta,” he speaks. “You didn’t have to do this.”

“I had to…” I reply softly. “Because I care..”


Our eyes lock for a long minute until his grumpy face changes and he smiles at me.

“You have either stood by me in my difficult times or have offered to help even if I never asked. I do care for you, Arnav. I’m not that blind and self-centered.”

He keeps staring at me, letting me speak as I apply the cream on his jaw.

“But..” I look in his eyes, firmly because I want him to know that he can’t persuade my decisions. I don’t allow anyone to do so. “I am used to be on the decision-making side. Not the other way round.”

Eyes locked on mine, Arnav takes the tube from and hand and I assume he puts it away.

“I respect that, Khushi Gupta but when it comes to your security, I’m always going to object if you make any silly decision.”

I am about to debate when he cups my face.

“You are precious to me. I can’t risk your life.”


My heart skips a beat. I fight to keep myself from trembling when his thumbs brush my cheeks ever so lightly yet intense enough to bring goosebumps to my skin. I clutch both his wrists to stop him from doing anything further.

“You have self-created barriers around you, Khushi. And I understand why you did so,” he says, looking intently in my eyes. “A woman like you… out into the world.. alone.. without any support.. without anyone who loved and cared for her.. had to take care of herself. But these barricades wont work on me. I am going to break them, and bring you out of that hard shell which has become your comfort zone.”

Note: Very very sorry for not being able to post the precap in the morning and the full update tonight. Busy with this little festive and new year preps with family and friends. So only precap tonight. I'll not be able to post any update on this weekend either. So next update will be on Monday 27th December 2021.
