How fast someone's life can change? A day, an hour or few seconds. No one can tell. "Samantha Arora was seen stumbling with a liquor bottle in her hands on the middle of the road." This was the headline of the newspaper lying on the coffee table of Arora's mansion garden.
The mansion was built in a huge area it seem like a palace with a touch of modernity in it. The huge mansion was surrounded by garden and a couple walked out of the mansion wearing casual clothes.
A middle aged man with a well built stature and good facial features was walking holding hands of a beautiful lady who seemed to be deep in thought looking towards the greenery around her with a smile.
The owner of the mansion and the man in the picture spoke up with a little dissatisfaction when he noticed that his wife is not paying attention to his presence " I think I should just burn the garden down! My wife is not even sparing a look at me." He completed with a grimace on his face and his free hand going to his chest to show his pain while the other hand remained steadily holding his wife's hand.
The women sighed and finally turned around and her exquisite facial features were now visible to his naked eye. She said with a gentle voice "Stop whining! You are not a child, Ram!". Ram replied with a playful wink "Come on, Aarti you clearly call me baby…so I am a child."
Mr. Ram Arora was engaged in a playful banter with his wife Mrs. Aarti and they reached the glass dorm where few chairs with a coffee table was placed he guided his wife towards a chair and sat on the one next to hers. Ram said while looking into her wife's eyes "I like this!" Aarti replied "Like what?"
Ram said "I like being at peace with you." Before Aarti could speak there was a sound of car being pulled up behind them. They turned their head to peek at the car that has entered into the driveway of the mansion. Ram's mood changed instantly from peace to annoyance "I wish I could just throw him out."
Aarti sighed and turned around to give her husband a look to cancel all the plans of throwing his future son in law out. Aarti sighed and spoke "Just let it be, let's continue with out conversation."
At the main door of mansion where a black mercedes was pulled up the driver's side door opened and a person clothed in formal wear stepped out he was around 6 feet tall with a well built body. His facial features were nothing extraordinary but it still has the charm to make people have a second look at him.
He was Mr. Aryan Singh one of the most promising bachelor and the Ceo of Giant corporation he was among the top 10 business man in India and he was the future son in law of Mr. Ram Arora. He had a dominating aura that surrounded him when he entered the mansion.
The butler Shahu ji came in the living area to greet him with a polite nod. He said "Sir, Samantha ma'am is in her bedroom." Aryan replied with a curt nod. And he started climbing up the majestic staircase in front of him. He reached the second floor of the mansion and he turned right towards his fiancé's room.
Aryan stopped in front of the door for a second and he turned the nob and entered the room to find out that Samantha was watching some series in her rooms television. She peeked a glance at him and paused the series she was watching.
Samantha was as beautiful as one can ever be she looked like a princess even in her half asleep state. Samantha spoke in her morning voice "Good morning" Aryan took a deep breath and replied with an expressionless face "Nothing about this morning is good, Samantha!."
Aryan stopped for a second and when he saw his fiancé acted like she has no idea to what she has done. He took out few papers from his blazer and threw it on her bed "Look what you have done, why have you caused such a scene out of nowhere?" Samantha skimmed through the headline of newspaper and replied "So what? Can't I have a little fun on my friends birthday party?"
Aryan took a deep breath and spoke "I had no idea that you guys were partying in the middle of the road." Before Samantha could speak he continued "You know bad publicity is not good for both our companies."
Samantha smiled and she resumed her series with a small reply that was "Not now!" Aryan was seething in anger but before he could throw things around he got a phone call from one of his man "Yes?" he asked. He heard a "boom" from the other end and then the man replied "Sir, our warehouse is exploded, everything burnt down."
Aryans anger was boiling and his veins could be seen popping as he screamed on the phone "Samarth Raichand" Samantha was feigning ignorance but her complete attention was towards her fiance.
Aryan disconnected the phone call gave her a look and dashed out of the mansion. As soon as he stepped out of the room Samantha furrowed her brows.
The door of her walk in wardrobe opened and a girl of her age that is 24 walked out with a grim look. Samantha rolled her eyes at her and said "Don't give me that "I told you about it" look."
Sarah Agnihotri smirked and said "But I did tell you that fiance of yours is a little snake." Samantha did not reply as she was thinking about what just happened her fiance has not treated her like this before, but she has never been on the headlines before either. Sarah understood what her best friend was thinking and she replied "He was treating you nicely before because you were doing what he wanted like a puppet and the movement you stepped out of line he came to you like an angry master."
Samantha sighed and spoke "But maybe he is really worried about the company's image?" Sarah sighed and replied "It was your picture in the newspaper and you will be affected the most by it but has the Ceo of Arora Corp called you even once?" Samantha knew she could not defend the person she claimed to love anymore.
Samantha was not an idiot to understand what is happening so she picked up her phone and sent a message to a number from her contact list.
Sarah sat on the bed beside her and passed an envelope to her "Here, this is probably everything that one can find about that jerk." Samantha narrowed her eyes at Sarah "You have him followed? Without my approval?" Sarah felt a little guilty about it and she tried to cover it by saying "But you did not react like you were surprised from all of this?" Samantha said "Yes, I knew it I had a feeling from a long time just wanted this fake fairy tale to continue, but it cannot."
Sarah spoke with a hint of surprise "So you don't love him anymore?" Samantha replied "I don't know I think he has done a lot for me I really don't know what I feel anymore." Sarah said "Maybe you were doing all these because he saved you once." Samantha spoke with a hint of understanding "Yes, today was really an eye opener for me he hasn't changed its me who can look clearly now."
Sarah was shocked "You are taking all this really well!" Samantha replied with an unknown glint in her eyes "You expect me to cry and make a scene? Have I ever done something like that before?" Sarah reply came instantly "No, you have always been understanding."
A silence surrounded them before Sarah said "So what next?" Samantha replied "Let's first see what information you have collected."
