"No!" He yelled, "Please, no. I'm begging you, please."Arjun curled his fingers into a ball, signalling the man not to do anything. As he saw the gun slowly leaving the baby's head, he heaved a sigh of relief.He was quiet. He now knew how serious Arjun was. Any slightest mistake, he would be left in shackles.It was still the same thing. Even if Arjun killed all his children and wife, he would not leave until he takes away everything he had. So, of what use was it that he lied to him and proved to be stubborn, when his family's life was on the line?He shook his head. He was in great danger, and he had to sacrifice it for the lives of his wife and children."Did you really think I came here to play games with you, Mr. Amit?" Arjun mouthed, conveying his annoyance."My patience is running thin. The same way you left those poor people behind bars with nothing to survive on, allowing them to die of hunger without a care in the world, is the same way you will see with your own eyes how
While people like Arjun and the citizens of Castle City were rejoicing over the new turnaround in the state, people like the ministers went into hiding.They had no courage to show themselves to the public. As much as they had given back to the citizens what belonged to them, they knew they had lost their respect.No one regarded them anymore, or held them in high esteem. What was the point of going out in public, when they knew that all they would receive was hate speech from the public?The minister of Finance had returned to his family, but all his private properties that he had acquired with the budget given by the government to Castle City were confiscated, and turned into a public property.He watched how his hard work went down the drain in front of him, and it pained him that he could do absolutely nothing.However, he was not going to give up. No! He was not that weak. He decided to lay low for a while, before thinking of ways to acquire more money.How can the minister of Fi
The minister sighed, loudly. If he had known that something of this sort would happen, he would have left the country as he had planned.He looked at Arjun, shaking his head and muttering inaudible words. He cursed under his breath, regretting why he had stayed a little longer in Castle City.In fact, he wondered how Arjun was able to find out all of these within a short period of time. Although he wanted to resist, he could not bear to imagine the worst that could happen to him if he disobeyed him.He looked like he came prepared, and he was caught off guard, so there was no much he could do to save himself.He thought of how much he would lose if he tried his tricks on him."Enough with the threats. What do you want me to do?" He asked, angrily.He had never been put in such a state before, and to think that it was Arjun. Nobody had dared to disrespect him in such a manner, and anyone who tried, always end up falling to their knees and begging for mercy."Be slow to anger, Mr. Mah
There was jubilation amongst the farmers of Castle City. They were so frustrated that after months of toiling and tilling, when their farm produce was due for harvest, it yielded little to nothing.This had made them wonder what was going wrong. Could it be that they didn't work well? Could it be that they did not apply enough fertilizers?Due to these consecutive results, they bought more fertilizers than they should, which caused them so much loss.They had been spending a lot of fertilizers to grow their farm crops, but whenever it was time to harvest, they realized that there was just a few crops they could harvest that were healthy.Sometimes, before the harvest, the farm pests must have eaten almost all that they had planted.This had saddened the farmers, because they could neither eat from it nor sell anything.It all made sense to them now. The minister of Agriculture had caused them all of these, all because he wanted to make more profits in the disguise of helping them.The
They were all stunned. Their eyes were widened, almost attempting to fall off its sockets.When did he get here? How did he get in without their awareness? They could swear that they had no idea when the door even open, or when someone walked in.It made them wonder how long he had been standing there. Could it be that he heard their conversation?Their heart beat seemed to have skipped. They just stared at him as if they had all seen a ghost."What?" He said, seemingly acting dumb, "are you not happy to see me? Did I scare you? Or perhaps, did I interrupt your plans?" He said.It dawned on them that he might have been standing there for a while now. They sighed in anger and frustration.How was he able to do that? Always getting them whenever they let their guard down. Every single time they tried to breathe and relax, he would always appear.He was like their worst nightmare. He did not even give them space to breathe. Since he returned, it had always been one episode of discomfort
He had decided to just flee away from the country for now, till the whole situation was settled. Since he was barely regarded now, he was sure that before he returned, they might have forgotten about him or even his existence.With that idea in mind, he sighed in relief. He would leave the country soon, but that did not make him a loser.He was only letting Arjun play all his cards, before he would strike. He would never let him go that easily. That was the last thing he would do.In fact, it was impossible! Not after Arjun had ruined his life, he would now let him off the hook like that.Not only was he planning to travel alone, he planned to come back after a while to take his revenge.He could not be belittled. Since he could not control Castle City, and make the citizens to be subjected to his orders, he would rather have it destroyed.Yes! He planned to destroy the city, leaving it in shackles.He could not lose his financial position, his respect, and power that easily. Arjun m
Finally! The man had feared the chief minister's wrath. He knew how angry he could be, and he needed to act fast, as well."A space?" He questioned.The man stammered, "uh, I... I mean a private jet." Due to how hasty he was in giving back his report, he had not said the full thing. Of course, the Chief Minister would not want to share a plane with commoners, even if they were minster or people with power.Having been disgraced and embarrassed, he could not afford to take himself all out for more embarrassment and insults."Good. Send me the necessary documents now." He ordered.He would never change, would he? Even at the level he was right now, he still had the same iota of guts; ordering people around anyhow and however he wanted.He did not even wait for the man to respond, he ended the call.Checking his dashboard, his first plan was successful. He was able to book a private for himself to fly out. He marked it with a tick, indicating that it was completed.Moving on to the ne
While Arjun made the ministers to pay for their wrong deeds, he had returned to Maratha Industries, but he didn't reveal himself yet to the people. He still had a lot to do, and he was not even halfway close getting them done, although he had already punished the ministers according to the law. As he was at it, he had gone back to take his position and the CEO and owner of Maratha Industries, without the chief minister knowing it.He had slowly and carefully planned it. Not everyone at Maratha Industries knew about his existence. They all thought he was dead, so even his suspicious movement remained unnoticed.It was just one or two persons that knew that he was back, and they were his most loyal allies. Not like he did not trust others. No, he did, but he had to be calculative.They were dealing with the chief minister here. He could easily manipulate one of them to talk, and this would spoil all the plans that he had made.Right now, he was a step ahead of the chief minister. He
