The CEO's Secret Wife

CHAPTER 12: LIVE SORRY

Tina went to the hospital and there she was asked to wait outside Yousufa's ward by her assistant. He looked at Tina and smirked before asking her to wait for Yousufa to call her inside.

Tina became angry on that because she knew that Yousufa was only trying to insult her in front of the media. so she asked the assistant

–"do you even know who I am ?" there was anger in her voice.

"Yes I know, you are Tina Kapoor the fiancee of the CEO of PG GROUP but still you are not allowed to go inside." The assistant smirked and said this to Tina in a very cold tone.

Tina was really angry and wanted to leave the place but stayed there for the fact that after this segment Yousufa would not be able to forgive her own self for asking Tina to say sorry to her in front of everyone.

Yousufa was inside the ward and listening to everything, she was the one who asked her assistant to stop Tina so that she would make a fuss of that and Yousufa would get a chance to prove her wrong and herself right in front of the media.

After listening to Tina's voice outside her room she immediately called her assistant and asked him to bring Tina in the room, with respect.

Tina went to her room and asked her about her health but Yousufa was more concerned in the live show that was going to take place, so she directly told Tina about that. –"Tina I also don't like all this, I hope you know that you are like my sister and I am doing all this for your betterment only. I do also hope that you know, that we are going to do a live segment of about five minutes where you will say sorry to me on national television. I am also not in favour of all this but it to improve your reputation in front of the world. Since you know you replaced me in the show." She smiled at her sarcastically and before Tina could react to her Yousufa's assistant spoke.

–"You need to wash Yousufa's leg and say sorry to her for the sprain in her leg sating that it was your fault because you wanted to replace her in the show. We have already prepared the scene and you just need to act accordingly" he looked towards Yousufa and had a eye contact with her as in saying "I did all that you wanted me to say and make Tina do. Now wait and watch till she insults herself in front of everyone."

Tina's face now turned red and anger was evident in her eyes. She tried to calm herself but was failing at it miserably. She was not able to control her anger more and yelled at Yousufa with all her might –"Yousufa do you have some shame left in you ? Huh? Don't you already knew that I was going to replace you for the show, were you and Pranay not the one who asked me to do the same? And your so called assistant didn't he knew I was in your place on the stage? And now you all want me to say sorry to you in front of everyone wash your legs? Not at all.. F*ck you and f*ck your so called love show. Now I am not going to be fooled by you. And what you said I am like your sister? That would be the last thing that I want to happen for myself."

Tina left the ward without looking back and dodging all the questions that the media had been throwing at her.

After leaving the ward she hid herself in the hospital room and the first thing she did was texting Ranvijay to send someone to pick her up. And secondly, she texted Ritika to release the pictures of Yousufa and Pranay.

Ranvijay was in a meeting at that point and for the first time ever he checked his phone in between a meeting and even left a very important meeting in between just so he could go by himself to pick Tina up from the hospital and suprise her. Everyone in the meeting room was shocked to see this change in Ranvijay's behaviour but he turned a blind eye on everyone and left to pick her up, but just saying two words and that too in a tone more cold than ever –"meeting adjourned."

The images Ritika published became the internet sensation in minutes from being released. Everyone who once hated Tina for taking Yousufa's place now started to think otherwise also. Tina and Pranay's relationship was publicized and everyone was also aware that they were very soon going to tie the knot. Now everyone started to think that both of them together were cheating on Tina and even forced her to do whatever she did.

At that time Yousufa was giving an interview as she knew Tina would react that way when her assistant told her what to do and that's why she already planted some reports inside the room to record her outburst and used that against her. She was crying in front of the reporters stating that Tina yelled at her without any reason and that the sprain on her leg is because of her.

The reporters also realised that the game was on now, between Yousufa and Tina. Just now she took all the blame on her and her manager in just some hours released pictures of Pranay and Yousufa. That was definitely planned but now they also seemed to realise that, whatever is happening is not Tina's fault alone, there might be some fault of her in it but Pranay and Yousufa are also cheating on her.

The media as always has no sympathy for anyone, they were hard on Yousufa the same way they were for Tina. All of them started to question her regarding the pictures and the relationship between her and Pranay. The news of Pranay and Tina being engaged and about to tie the knot was know by all. There relationship was publicized and when news like this if Pranay cheating on Tina with Yousufa went out, it was like the fire in forest.

No insinuation was needed and it still became the most searched news of the town. Still Ranvijay did what he was supposed to do, he had already instructed his assistant to keep all the news in trending that was being released by Tina.

Inside PG Group : Pranay's Cabin

Pranay was pacing back and forth in his cabin, not sure of what he needs to do next. There were calls on cue for him from the media, who were asking his stand on the whole situation. Pranay asked one of his most trusted media sources about Tina but only got to know that she was nowhere in reach. After she left Yousufa in her ward she has not been seen till yet and she was also not answering calls.

Pranay had no idea how he was going to handle the whole situation now. He tried his best to stop the news from spreading and taking it down but to no use. He was not able to guess who was behind the media sources, that are not taking the news down. He was ready to give as much money as they want but to no use.

He thought that Tina was using money to keep the news on trending but was not sure how after giving more than usual money to bring a news down it is not done still.

He didn't know that however hard he tried he can't do that because the king of the industry himself doesn't want that news to go down, and there was no media company in the entire industry that could go against Ranvijay, even though when he was not playing on his front foot.

There were calls from other brands and companies also to cancel the deal between them and Yousufa. They were clearing stating that they would not work with her because now her reputation in market has dropped incredibly and that would not be good for their companies. The relationship between Pranay and Yousufa was nothing but sort of an extramarital affair, and no one would like to work with a model with such image. Almost all the companies that were till now fighting to sign deal with Yousufa now started to back off and the deals that she has already signed started to get cancelled.

Pranay thought that it was just Tina now that could save them from all this. If she would forgive him and could come in public and explain her stand on this, then it would be nice for Yousufa as well. He tried calling her senselessly but to his bad luck she was not responding. He was calling her continuously.

Hospital room where Tina is hiding:

Tina was in the hospital room hiding but having an eye on all that is going outside through her phone. He phone kept ringing and it was Pranay, he had called her around 60 times and uncountable text and voice messages have been dropped by him but Tina was not responding to any of those. Her phone was in her hand as she waited for Ranvijay's man to come and pick her up but she was still not answering Pranay's call. She wanted to torture him, she wanted that Pranay should feel tormented like she has always felt because of him.

She was deeply engrossed in her thoughts when her phone rang once again and this time she was delighted to see the caller ID, it was from Ranvijay. She picked the call instantly and before she could even say Hello.. Ranvijay started to speak

"Come out my car is waiting for you, don't exit from the main gate. The car is at the back gate of the hospital since there are a lot of media on the front gate. Make sure no one sees you, they are real alot and you may not be able to dodge them. And I can't handle if they hurt you." he seemed so tensed as he said all that.

Tina could not get her heart together as it was about to explode out of her chest because of his words, she was flabbergasted on her place as she heard all those words from him. She calmed her racing heart and answered him in just one sentence as she was not able to gather herself to speak more

"Don't worry, I will make sure no one sees me. And the media would hurt me only when they see me, that won't happen. I will call you once I am in the car. Bye" Tina said trying to calm Ranvijay down and ensure him that she would be safe.

She left the hospital secretly towards the gate where Ranvijay said his car is waiting. She saw a black Rolls-Royce parked under a tree. Tina recognised the car instantly and was even more suprised to see a handsome Ranvijay leaning on the car while waiting for her. He was not wearing his office attire instead he was carrying a simple v-neck t-shirt and cargo pants. He was looking damn handsome in those clothes, that Tina could not take off her eyes from him

Tina was so happy to see him there, she was over the moon about the fact that he came to pick her up amidst of his busy schedule as he told her in the morning when she asked him :

"What are you going to do today? Not intervening.. just asking how is it to the CEO of the biggest entertainment company of the world?" She wanted to ask how his day looks like and also have a normal conversation with him.

"Nothing much, just tons of meetings from morning to evening. Though it is not always like this but today, yup there are 5 meetings in a day and all hectic and boring." He shrugged as he laughed at his own schedule.

Tina was so happy that she ran towards him to hug him, he was leaning on the car and just tried to stood straight when he saw her coming towards him. He was confused at what she was going to do but licking enough of being that well built and strong he caught her when she jumped on him to hug him, and even was able to balance himself as well as her from falling straight on the ground.

He was confused as Tina hugged him tightly in her embrace but also chuckled at her stupidness which he seemed to like a lot. He also held her tight in his embrace before realising that they were still in the hospital premises.

He tapped her head lightly as he was still chucking at her reaction on seeing him and broke the hug to face and remind her that she won't like to be seen with him still.

"Can we sit in the car and continue with the hug at some other place as you won't like to be seen with me still? Or changed your mind?" he asked mocking her.

"Ofcourse I can't be seen with you still, it would render my image as well Mr. Rawat" Tina also teased him, in the same way he was doing with her.

Ranvijay just rolled his eyes and assisted her in the shotgun seat and after getting behind the wheels himself, he sped the car and stopped at a place far from the noise of the city. He pulled her close to him again and hugged her close to his body. That close that Tina was able to feel his heat even.

"What was with the reaction? Weren't expecting to see me? Or am I prohibited to come and pick my wife from work?" He asked smiling as he could not contain that.

"You can, and you should definitely come to pick your wife up from her work. But today I thought, you had a lot of meetings as you told in the morning and won't be free to come and meet me. So I was really happy as I was not expecting to see you too soon today." Tina told him everything honestly.

Listening to what she said Ranvijay knew where she was coming from and what was she was referring to..."baby, it was Pranay who didn't had time for you. But me, I have every second of my life for you, how to tell you that I have waited for this since so long. I could leave everything just to be with you." He pulled her closer to him and instantly his hand went to the back of her head pulling her face more close to him.

He cupped her cheek and kissed her roughly as in sucking all the air left in her lungs.
