Brijesh wondered, his eyes wide with
"What's the situation?" A husky voice asked from the shadows of the dark room."Nothing much. Just jubilation." A man pocketed his hands behind the silhouette of the figure."What's the status of the country?" The voice asked again."Still the same. Nothing has been noticed yet." The man replied.The figure hummed as his heels clicked on the floor, swiveling in the man's direction, making noises as he walked closer to him.*************"Ananya, where's my suitcase?" Ayush asked as he swallowed the last gulp of his tea."I'm still searching for it. Goodness knows where you dropped it this time. You never know how to keep your things and when you can't find them you'll start disturbing me." Ananya complained from the room.Aditya crossed his arms, "Of course I'll disturb you. You're my wife, who else will I ask? Esha's still too small to run around for me." Ananya rolled"Oh please, you should really stop making me…""Buzzz" Ayush's phone vibrated in his pocket, distracting him from hi
Ayush walked out of the meeting, after declaring his withdrawal from the company. He didn't want to waste any more time as they might try to convince him to stick to the company.It was not as though he did it out of his own free will, he just could not help it. It was for the sake of his family.He would rather resign from the company, than have his wife and child dead. The person he was dealing with had no heart, all he could do now was to follow his orders.As he went on with a lot of things going through his mind, Rahul ran towards to him."Mr. Ayush, Mr. Ayush!" He called out, "wait up, please."His steps quickened, but Rahul was fast enough to reach him. He slowed down as he was in the same pace as him. "Mr. Ayush—""Think about how you can stop breathing like a dog, before you think of talking to me," Ayush responding, causing him to keep quiet, and breathe well.Rahul took a deep breath, and began talking. "I know how much you love the company, and how dedicated you are to wo
Staring at the green tree through the window as it danced to the tune of the wind, he took a sip from the glass of wine he held in his hand.After the accident, which he was lucky to escape, he had stayed low to know what caused the accident, as he was sure that the car was in good fit. His mind had wandered faraway, thinking of how he would go about it. "Sir," he heard someone say. He turned his back to face the person. Looking at his face clearly, he could recall him. Of course, he would not forget so easily the person who planted the bug in his car that caused the accident."It's about your company, sir," he began, lowering his head, unable to look at him."Go on."Aside knowing what caused his accident, he needed to know how his company was doing. Of course, the person who wanted him dead wanted something from him."The... The chief minister has taken over your company, Nexumcore. From the news I heard, Ayush had resigned since there was no CEO to run the company, and just afte
He loved the terror he saw in the President's eyes. He could feel him trembling, and that was what he wanted to do to manipulate him to step down."Can you not see that the citizens are suffering? They have you as a President, but they are dying. People are terrorizing the city, causing havoc and insecurities. What are you going to do about it?" The chief minister said, tucking his hands into his pockets.The President lowered his head, his eyes darting as he felt weak. The chief minister was, indeed, right. He was the president of Castle City, yet he could do nothing about the insecurities of the citizens in the city.He could not even stop the terrorist group. How then was he worthy to be called the President, when he had failed the people that were looking up to him for safety?"I... I—"He was at a loss for words. He didn't know what to say or how best to defend himself. "You are the President. The safety of the citizens and the peace of Castle City rest in your hands. Think abou
Arjun smiled. From the sound of the chief minister's voice, he knew that he was afraid and surprised at the same time. The same way he makes others scared of him, he would do same to him now. Arjun waited for a while before he spoke up."Who is this?" He asked, trying to hide the shock he felt.Since he was planning to play, Arjun felt it was right to play along with him. It seemed like he loved to play, so he guessed that he needed to join the fun. After all, one must take his time to have fun."This is Arjun, CEO of Nexumcore."His voice carried an epitome of authority and an intimidating aura. Mentioning his company, he remembered that the chief minister had played his tricks on his company and taken it away, but of course, he would not let him win.He would not watch his hard work go to waste, especially in the hands of the chief minister.He shook his head, diverting away from his thoughts."You... I thought you were.. I mean, you are alive! That's a great news. You're lucky to
Arjun had come prepared. He knew the chief minister would not succumb easily, and would, in turn, try to play his tricks on him.He also knew that if the chief minister used Nexumcore for his evil plans, it would be too late, and there will no going back.He thought of the lives of the people that will be endangered. Certainly, he would become more powerful, and even the government might not be able to stop him."What do you want?" The chief minister finally asked, after carefully considering his steps.If he could tell that Arjun was totally prepared for this battle. He needed to think strategically and act wisely, else, all that he had laboured for will be in vain.Arjun smiled, "good question. Whatever your plan is for Nexumcore, I advise you to abort it immediately. Do not misuse Nexumcore for your weaponry," he stated.The chief minister wondered how Arjun had come to know about his plans for Nexumcore. This made him to think of how long Arjun was alive.Nexumcore was his next ta
The chief minister was more than surprised. If there was any other word to use rather than surprised, it would totally describe his expression.His jaw dropped, his mouth could not profess any word. He didn't know what to say at this point. It seemed like Arjun was really prepared for him. This scene could perfectly described the phrase that said "fear my return".The chief minister was still in a state of shock as to how Arjun was able to uncover all his secrets and dirty works without even giving him any hint.He hadn't expected his move at all. What was he going to do, now? If he tried to outsmart Arjun, he would definitely expose him.With all the evidences he had now, there was no way he could beat the allegations. The fear of being exposed to the public made his knees go weak, that he slumped into the chair.He knew all his dirty works, which made him wonder if Arjun had a record of everything he had done. If he were to be exploded to the public, then the police would come a
