Despite all the wondrous changes you made in my life, I have a complaint; I can't stand your son. He is arrogant, mannerless and a complete womanizer.

I am not sure why and what made him like that, but I wish you could take control of his life and train him to become a better person, someone who is respectful towards women. Thanks, Advika. If you don’t believe me, you can read this book and find out why I hate him so much. However, don’t judge him by his looks, and don’t kill him. After all, he is Ajay Khurana’s son; my favourite man in the world. Stop by and grab this book real soon. Let me know if you hate him as much as I do.
