Meera’s POV
“sir, how did you know that I was here? “,
I asked while Mr. Krishnan was driving.
" there are no proofs against Aryan”
Spoke Mr. Krishnan which shook me to the core. How can he say that? After all the risk that I have taken.
“what about the business dealing? “,
" they were just deals on the expansion of there hotel”
“the sting operation? ”
" the cameras that you installed didn’t catch anything and also the lady you interviewed actually works for him, so I doubt we have any strong evidence against him”,
Great! This has to be the lamest moment of my life, I risked everything for nothing? But, I won’t give up that easily. I will find your weak point!
“oh, wait! I got this hickey from him! He forcefully kidnapped me and kissed me! “,
" I doubt we can do that because then we will have to give a reason for trespassing. The fact that you tried to conduct a sting operation and trespassed his property as well as installed cameras, everything will be revealed “,
Great! This feels like I have been tied down to burn in fire. This means we are back to square one, no wonder anyone who tried to unmask him ended up dead or just disappeared. It was past midnight and Mr. Krishnan and I drove to office thinking the fact that I escaped, my home won’t be a safe place to stay. I’ve got to do something soon.
As we entered the office I could see the printers and reports still working, I know this job demands one to be alert all the time but it seemed unusual to see everyone one of them present.
“Meera! You’ve got to see this”,
Said my friend Anjali, she dragged me to a screen where the news was being aired. It was a live press conference. Just when I was confused about what was going on, until the jerk whom I despise the most flashed on screen.
′Good evening everyone, firstly I would like to thank all of you for showing up at such a short notice. Today I have called a press conference to declare that I’ve been engaged and I’m soon to marry her. ′
′ Congratulations, sir! May we know who that lucky person is? ′
′ oh! Of course, her name is Meera Rajput. ′
What??!!!
“is this a joke? ”
I was clearly losing my cool, the rage, the animosity was burning in me to set him on fire!
" Meera, you’ve got to be careful from now on”
Spoke Anjali, who was my friend as well a fellow reporter.
“But, this is completely baseless! ”
I don’t understand what is he doing? If he intends to dig his own grave so be it.
" make sure you don’t leave the office”
Spoke Mr. Krishnan, acting really worried.
“weren’t you posted to different locations? ”
I remember this morning the office had no familiar looking staff, and that jerk said he posted them elsewhere.
" It’s simple really! Since your weakness is your office place he seems to be toying with us”
Explained Anjali, in that case I’ve got to act like a fiance now as he wants me to. I gave a mental smirk.
“I resign from this job, the letter will be on your desk in 5 minutes Mr. Krishnan ”
I walked towards my cabin. That’s it this is just annoying. If he thinks I’ve got a weakness he is messing with a wild Bull!
" But, why would you do that? ”
Barged in Akash, my another fellow reporter and the only brotherly support.
" what choice do I have? ”
I asked him raising my eyebrows.
" don’t tell me you are going to your house now? ”
" Maybe, where else can I go? If I stay here he toys with you. I leave is the only option left”
“but he can do something to you”
“that is what I am waiting for”
I smiled at him, bring it on jerk!
“are you crazy? You are walking into grave danger, you know what could happen? He could kill you, make you disappear or even worse push you in dark market”
" don’t worry about me Akash, he won’t dare to do that since he made a press conference, if he did have such agenda he wouldn’t have made such conference in the first place. Plus, if something is to go wrong with me don’t you think the press would know about it? ”
I know I am going to take a risk again, but I am sure nothing can go wrong this time.
Aryan’s POV
" your fiance eh? ” spoke that sly dog Danish.
" watch your tongue, she is my soon to be wife”, I growled.
" Soon to be, not yet a wife.. ”
" I guess you should start worrying about yourself, who knows when one is going to breath their last”,
" Death threats are quite common to me Aryan, tell me something new”,
" Hahaha! Oh, did you think so low of me to give you death threats? I am not going to move a finger and yet, you will be suffering a humiliation that you never imagined! ”
I’ve never ever killed anyone, it just feels too good for them, people must reflect on their deeds and burn with guilt until they die. This is all I’ve done in my life and you will suffer in guilt Danish.
" Sir, when shall we go to pick Madam? ”
My thoughts were interrupted by my Secretary. What was his name again? Yeah! Tahir.
" it’s alright Tahir, we don’t have to pick her. Your Bhabhi will come here on her own”,
I smirked at the very thought of her. She holds the key to my heart and life. See you soon wild cat.
