With the danger following behind, Kiara and Vaani along with the disguised butler reached the USA safely.
A month flew by with the rush of the admission process and settling in the absolutely unfamiliar place. Kiara's beautiful face was enough to attract the attention of everybody around in university campus.
But in a place far away from their country, in the bustling city of the states where people even miss out on their own pals in the crowd. Call it a fate, but Kiara met a familiar person on the campus of her university.
Meanwhile, In the CEO's office at the Skyscraper building of Parihaar Empire Paras' assistant, Kunal stood in front of Paras with few reports on his hands.
"Mr. Parihaar, Young miss Kiara is absolutely fine in the States. She is doing great and has made a few new friends too. She is safe." Kunal reported Kiara's circumstances.
"Contact John, and ask him to pay close attention to Kiara's safety, and get rid of everyone who means any harm to her." Paras ordered when a knock was heard on the door as the third person entered the CEO's office.
"The presentation of the project you demanded is completed" Vice president Mr. Parmar handed over the file of documents along with a pen drive to Paras.
Paras signaled Vice President Parmar to start reporting. Mr. Parmar summarized the project in brief as Paras listened inattentively as if everything that came out of the former's mouth was utter nonsense. The amount of the money that was claimed by Mr. Parmar was clearly more than double what was required for the project.
Vice President Parmar was one of those employees who had worked for the company for a very long time. He was hired by his father and was very efficient in his work. Though Paras noticed a few tricks he played when he was being trained and his father was still a CEO. Those tricks were played purely to bag some money from the company so he disregarded the small sum of money that was being stolen.
After Mr. Ratan Parihaar handed over the post of CEO to his talented son due to his terminal illness, these people who were trusted by his father started to show their poisonous fangs. He respected his father and let these people off the hook. The main reason was that he thought that such enemies just wanted more money, and didn't mean any harm to him or his family.
Vice president Parmar noticed that Paras was busy with his own thoughts and finished his explanation. He paused for a moment before saying, "Sir it seems that you can't focus, you should take some rest." and turned to leave. He stopped midtrack and turned to face Paras and spoke calmly, "I have advice for you, not as an employee but as an experienced elder."
Paras nodded for him to go ahead.
"Clever is the person who gets rid of the weakness instead of dealing with enemies. Especially those who have thousands of enemies."
The assistant standing aside was shocked by the elderly statement.
And at this moment he knew that Mr. Parmar has broken that thin string of patience, Paras was holding to leave these old hags off the hook.
Mr. Parmar left the CEO's office leaving the two people and terrifying silence behind.
Kunal was sweating profusely on behalf of all those employees who were going to face the terror of Paras' anger.
In the deadly silence, a deep low voice was heard.
"You know what to do?" Paras' expression was hidden in shadow, the only expression visible was the creepy curve of his lips.
Kunal who was scared to death immediately prepared the list of people who were playing tricks with the company and handed it to Paras within five minutes.
Paras unhurriedly went through the list of a dozen of employees.
"Vice president, general manager, Administrator, Chief marketing officer, Chief financial officer, Technical Manager, Marketing Manager."
Paras stated a few of them.
"Time for the revolution!" a low amused chuckle echoed in the room.
"Where is President Lee?" Paras asked Kunal.
"He is back from Chennai. He will report in a few hours."
In the USA,
"Kiara Parihaar?"
A boy with Amber eyes looked at Kiara with his eyes narrowed.
"Karan Grover? In acting school?" Kiara looked at the taller boy with an equally surprised expression.
"Wow, you look so girly!" Karan teased Kiara and laughed at his own joke.
"So do you expect me to look 'manly'?" Kiara asked unamusingly.
Karan: "No! But, last time you were wearing all black looking like a badass with that motorbike. So this wasn't how I expected to meet you..."
"So are you saying I'm not looking good?"
"I'll be considered blind if I say that when every eye is stopping to have a look at you regardless of their gender. You look beautiful, but half of them are obviously drooling at me."
"Haha, sure!"
And that wasn't a lie. Two extremely good-looking people standing in the middle of the campus were especially eye-catching. And unexpectedly they looked really good beside each other.
