Arjun -
(Next Day)
Arjun woke up earlier than he usually wakes up. He had so many thoughts running in is head. He just wanted to get through this and fly back to India as quickly as possible. Today they are going to meet the chairman of the "Raz" company. He was nervous. He had heard that chairman of the the "Raz" company is a very cold and a ruthless one. He had taken over the company at the mere age of 18 while he was still going to university. He was not only one of the most successful businessman in the country but also one of the most powerful man in the world. HE had also heard that people who had got in his bad side hadn't got happy ending. There are so many rumors about this young biionaire. He had heard lots of rumors about him and none of them were positive. And cherry on top now, he even have another thing to worry about. He is Ana's brother. What if she had told him about them and what happened years ago. He was in deep trouble.
"Be positive Arjun , Be positive" he murmured to himself.
With that thoughts in his mind Arjun got ready to his meeting. He prayed to God to make everything easy for him today. Leaving Sid and Ro home he went to meet the young chairman.
After arriving at the building he was guided to the chairman's office. It was similar to his office in India but more majestic. When he entered to the office he could see him.
"Hi. I am Arjun Singhaniya the CEO of the Singhaniya Industries. Nice to meet you sir."
" Hi man. I am Izak De Raz. As you can see I am the chairman of the "Raz enterprises". Nice to meet you too. I have heard a lot about you. please sit down."
"So Arjun I have heard the details from my sister and I heard that you signed the contract successfully. I am happy that we will be able to work with you in the future." Arjun could hear him saying.
"pleasure is all mine sir. and I am very happy to work with you. I hope that we will be able to have a successful collaboration." he said to Izak.
Arjun couldn't believe that a man who is rumored to cold and ruthless is this. it must be a baseless lie. The rumored man and the man who is in front of are surely two different people he thought to himself.
Izak could see that Arjun was surprised so he decided to butt in.
"People may say different things about me. Usually I don't place my trust in others. It will only land you in trouble. Being a businessman you should know about this. And also I don't say that they are wrong. But they are not completely right either. I think that the way I am now is perfect." Arjun could hear Izak saying.
"But I am telling you this because I find you as a trustable person. My instinct say so. As we are going to collaborate in one of the biggest project this year I hope you will not get me wrong" Izak said further
He was happy and also surprised too. But he liked Izak's straightforwardness . Both of them started to engrossed in their own talk and so they didn't hear the commotion outside. While they were talking , suddenly some one barged in to the office.
Arjun was curious. He know that no one dares to barge in to Izsak's office. At least that's what happens in his office. no one . means no one , even his mother never enter to his office like this. He never in his dread imagined that Izak will allow this. Even though he said he was not like the rumors Arjun couldn't a person who had the courage to barge in to the chairman's office like this. But the moment he saw the intruder, he became speechless.
It was none other than Ana. He looked at her but she was not giving attention to him. Her entire attention was on her brother . Her eyes were throwing daggers at him. If looks could kill Izak would surely be dead by now.
Suddenly Ana started to yell something. His sole attention shifted to Ana now. He didn't know what is happening there now. So he decided to stay silent and observe the commotion.
"What the fuck! brother . How dare you. How could you say that to dad " screamed Ana.
Izak was calm and composed. He took a deep breath before speaking.
"What did I do now Ana" Izak asked in almost bored tone .
Arjun could see that Ana was pissed. he couldn't believe what he is seeing now. When he was in his own thoughts he heard the two siblings fighting. Oh no !! Not fighting screaming. Most were done by Ana of course.
"What did you do brother. You told dad that I am irresponsible and all I do is partying and clubbing. You have even told that all I do is clubbing every day. Even I do that you are not supposed to say it to dad brother. Do you know what he did today . He took all of my cards . Now how am I supposed to live . I am grounded for a weak. It is all because of you brother. I fucking hate you." screamed Ana.
Arjun was looking between the two siblings, He couldn't believe that this is his sweet little Ana who was his best friend. He was speechless.
" I didn't lie. Did I sisi. All I told dad was the truth. You and Izan both are the same. Both of you only know how to give me headaches. You are now 24 . please be mature Ana. And this is the end of the discussion. Please now you should go I have a visitor here " said Izak.
Arjun could see the horror stricken face of Ana after hearing that there is a visitor in the office . But it turned out to something more bigger when she saw it was him sitting there. He could see that she immediately shut her mouth. She was embarrassed.
"What the fuck" She cursed and Arjun heard it.
"Language Ana" shouted Izak.
" Whatever brother. this is not over . you will regret doing this to me " said Ana and stormed out of the room.
"oh really. we will see about that." shouted Izak back.
After Ana left Arjun could sense the awkwardness in the air. Izak seems to not affected from it though. Izak was the one two broke silence.
He was stupefied of the childless behavior of Izak. The cold and ruthless billionaire behaving like that with his sister. he couldn't fathom his thoughts. He will never behave like this with his sister. He thought. That's when he heard Izak speaking.
"Please Arjun don't take this to your heart. My sister is immature. she is always like this. I am immune to her taunts now. Please don't be offended" he could hear Izak saying.
"Oh no. I am not. I am rather amazed. If my sister speaks to me like that I don't know what will I do. No she will never speak to me like that" he said to Izak.
Yes He was rather amazed. he could never imagine his sister behaving like this. But Izak, he couldn't understand. And Ana , now he knew that the Ana who was his friend and this Ana are totally different people.
" oh its my sister man. I never take her words seriously. She is still a baby. I love her and I am the one who has spoiled her anyways. Now I cant do anything about that can I . And for me it doesn't matter what she do as long as there is no harm to her . I just want her to be safe and sound. You know right Arjun . Other things I can bear and give solutions without any problem" said Izak.
Arjun was attentively listening to what Izak is s saying. 'He is something' , Arjun thought to himself. He can't imagine his sister Aradhya behaving like this. Izak surely had spoiled his sister rotten thought Arjun.
He wanted to talk to Ana. he knew that without speaking with her he can't get rid of this guilt. He was okay all these years. But at this moment he understood that he was living in a lie created by himself. Now he knew that without speaking with Ana he cant get rid of this feeling in his heart. He was sure that he love Isha. But the problem is he can't get rid of his thoughts that reminds him of Ana. Arjun labeled it as guilt. It was easy for him to do that.
And in the back of his mind he had a nagging feeling that something would absolutely go wrong in the near future.
