Hida ambled her way into the her husband's company. She looked dashing and graceful as she walked into the building.
"Surprise" Hida chirped the moment she walked into the office, causing Shyam to furrow his brow. He was not expecting her to be the person who'd walk past the door.
"Is that how you greet your mother?" Hida lifted his eyebrows.
"What are you saying? Mom!" Shyam said, getting up from his seat to give her a hug. "Mom! What are you doing here?" He said as he led her to the sofa.
"Your father mentioned you are having a collaboration with Hwan company. And I heard their new president is a young successful lady. Moreover, she is your college friend. Is she beautiful?" Hida asked in her full gossipy mood.
Shyam could not believe his ears as he stared at his mother with a cocked brow.
"Mom! Did you come here to ask me that?" Shyam said in fed up tone.
Hida frowned unhappily for a moment before her face lits up again. "Son! I spoke with Teresa mother to fix another date with her. Can you please go for mother's sake?" She pleaded with an apologetic look.
"Mom, you really should know when to stop". Shyam spat out angrily.
"Alright! You don't have to glared at me like that" Hida hissed.
Teresa's mother with so much difficulty formed a friendly relation with Shyam's mother. She casually pointed out about Teresa's good qualities and praised about her achievements and character. She wanted Olls group to invest in her business but Shyam rejected as her plan was not good. So she thought to use his daughter to make his business more profit.
Teresa fell for Shyam in first blind date with his almighty king like presence. Teresa thought that if only this nature perfect man was her boyfriend, She would shamelessly accept if she titled as hypocrite.

"Take a sign and please copy all this into 5 sheets each," Perry said while handing out several sheets of paper to Naina.
Naina took the file in Perry's hand and made her way to Management Block.
"Hello, I work as an intern in Director's office. Can I take the sign of General Manager?" Naina asked politely.
The woman flipped the document in her hand and did not lift her head up. With a hint of laziness, she said, "Wait for some minutes".
"For how many minutes?" Naina continued to asked in polite tone. The woman titled her head with a glint of annoying on her face. She spoke coldly, "Can't you see that I am very busy right now?".
Naina sneered inwardly at the woman attitude.
It has been thirty minutes she is waiting. She took a glance at her wristwatch before she walked up to the woman again, "Excuse me, Can I get the sign now?".
The woman paused and sized Naina from head to toe. " You are intern right?"
"Yes, I am" Naina replied.
"Drop this files to Block 3 office".
"What about the sign? I work in Director office....." Naina trailed her words in midway when the woman interrupted.
"So What? You are just an intern. Working in Director office makes you a high rank employee? This is so unbelievable!"
--------
"What took you so long?" Perry asked in displeased tone.
"Sorry...I took the copy". Naina placed the sheets on her desk carefully.
"Hey! Intern"
The voice made Naina and Perry turned at the same time. Naina's eyes followed the woman who walk towards before she stopped in front of her.
The woman looked at Naina with a questioning look and asked, "Did you gave the files as I told you?"
"Yes. I gave" Naina replied.
"But they informed me that they didn't get any files. What is that?" She berated angrily.
Perry instantly understood why Naina was not on the time. She has been redirecting to do extra work.
"Deli, Did something happened?" Perry took step forward to shield Naina right.
"Perry, Don't get involved here" Dali huffed, not allowing Perry to talk.
Naina looked at Dali and said in firm tone, "Miss, I gave the files as you told me. Please check it again".
"You!" Dali bursts into anger. "Are you talking back at me right now?" Dali raises her voice.
Everything happened so quickly. Suddenly, Naina was pushed to the side, causing her steps to stagger.
"What's all this fuss?" Shyam sharp voice echoed the office making everyone there froze on the spot.
