In party Hall

Mr A’s manager was talking with Nishan.

“What?, match-fixing, Are you serious? I can’t do that.” Nishan said.

“It’s not like match-fixing, you have to stop Harsh from scoring runs from next match against, Chennai Thaliava's.” Manager explained.

“It’s a very risky thing, I… I can’t do that, I can’t betray the man, who helped during my lowest phase.” Nishan said.

“2crs and a credit card with full of money which you can use limitless.” Manager said.

“You can’t buy me through money.” Nishan started to move.

“Don’t you want money for your mom's operation, I know you don’t have that bank balance and your place in the Indian team is also swinging, sometimes in and sometimes out.” The manager said and Nishan stopped walking.

The manager continued “I know your problems, I can help, Mr A gonna help you, if you do what I say, your mom will out of danger.” Manager said.

“What if I get caught.?” Nishan questioned.

“So you are agreeing?” Manager asked.

“That’s secondary, answer my question first.” Nishan demanded.

“You won’t get caught, do you think you are the first one who is doing these things.” Manager said.

“Ok but last doubt, how will you transfer money, you can’t directly transfer money to my account.” Nishan said.

“Don’t you think, we thought of that, first say yes, we will do what we want to.” Manager asked.

“Ok,” Nishan said and the manager sent msg to his phone, within a minute a msg came to Nishan's phone.

“Read it.” Manager said.

The msg was “Hi Nishan, I’m  a doctor from Ape hospitals group, we have admitted your mother to our hospital, we are monitoring her health and we will conduct operation soon the operation costs 90lakhs, as you already deposited 40lakhs and another 50lakhs need to be deposited in three days.”

“What’s this.” Nishan asked confusingly.

“That  doctor is also our man, he is a good doctor, through him you will get money, the first instalment as given to you next and full money will be transferred to you when you send us to hint during the match, did you understand?” Manager asked.

Nishan nodded his head.

“Good, listen you have to do it next match, which is the day after tomorrow, it’s already midnight, so tomorrow.” the manager said

“Can I ask you, why you guys are doing this.?” Nishan asked.

“That’s none of your business, just do what’s said to you,now go. ” Manager said

Nishan went back to his room.

Meanwhile in Harsh's room.

Harsh was shocked looking at the interview which was given by Vishaka for some leading magazine newspaper.

In that interview, she told many things about Harsh and her which were not at all true.

A few hours back

“Don’t you think divorce is a big thing?” Interviewer asked.

“Divorce?, yeah it a big thing for me, to leave the person whom I loved like anything, but that person is unavailable for you, when you want him the most, he always used to stay busy and away from me, he never allowed me to talk with other men, he always used to give me in doubting look, he was one of the possessive men, I think.” Vishaka told lie as per the plan.

“But your pics in social media?” the interviewer asked.

“That life was not true, in these five years of life, he never talked nice with him,he used to abuse me with bad words, he always used to stay away from me, he had another house in Mumbai.” Vishaka said.

“What do you think is the reason for avoiding, did he physical abuse, do you think he had affairs.?” The interviewer asked.

“He never physically abused me, he would have done that but his cricketing career came in between I think, the thing about affairs, he may or may not be, before marriage he was a womanizer with sexual desires, I’m not telling having sexual desires are wrong.” Vishaka and inside she felt proud about herself lying like this.

“Last question, Why you married him, despite knowing about him and why divorce now.?” the interviewer asked.

“For marriage, the main reason is I was pregnant with Vian, secondly the reason for divorce he can’t see as successful beauty entrepreneur, his male ego was hurt because of that….

Her words were cut off by the interviewer “He even invested in your start-up”

“What the hell, is he talking, didn’t he read the script given by Mr.A” Vishaka thought.

“That’s a different thing, you don’t know how much I begged him to invest in that and he couldn’t digest the fact I’m earning more than him, that’s it.” Vishaka lied.

“How easily she is lying, I don’t why these people are ruining a career of good cricketer.” The interviewer thought and ended the show.

Interview ended

Now, in Harsh’s room.

Harsh was shocked to see her interview.

“H… how can she…..” harsh couldn’t able to form a sentence.

“Bhai, control yourself, here, drink water.” Ansh gave a water bottle to him.

Harsh drank the water.

Arjun came inside “I talked with the president sir, CIB, morning, we will release a press statement that those facts were wrong, and we were contracting the magazine to stop publishing the interview, to control the damage that’s happening with you.” Arjun said.

“Yes bro, the morning I have a press conference to attend, even I also tell this are wrong things.” Ansh said.

“Damage is already done, what is there to control, me my career everything is finished.” Harsh said in a crying voice.

“Oh, c'mon harsh be practical, the person who knows you won’t believe these things, and your fans will be your side.” Arjun said.

Sonia was standing in a corner looking at Harsh, she was feeling sad looking at him.

“I feel like giving him a tight hug and to tell him that everything will be fine, but I can’t.” Sonia thought.

“I don’t think so, let me call her.” Harsh took his phone out.

“For what?” Ansh asked.

“To ask her, why she told those lies.” Harsh said.

“Are you mad? if you call her, do you think the matter will be solved? do you think she will say sorry to you?”Sonia questioned.

“What are talking about?” Arjun asked.

“If she is telling lies very easily, she must be planning a big thing, do you guys think she will accept that she is lying on a phone conversation.” Sonia said.

“Explain please, we are not as intelligent as you in this matter.” Ansh said

“She may talk innocent and attach someone else voice as same harsh's voice like he was threatening her and may give that recording to court or release to media.” Sonia explained.

“People are mad to believe or what?” Ansh said.

“She may play women card or even big.” Sonia said.

“She is saying the truth,Vishaka may do that.” Arjun said.

“I don’t know my little sister is this much intelligent.” Ansh said.

Harsh was silently looking at the conversation, he won't have the energy to talk about anything, he didn’t expect this from a person whom he loved and believed more than anything.

“Don’t underestimate my movie-watching brain.” Sonia chuckled and her phone sounded.

“Excuse me.” Sonia went out checked the msg from an unknown number.

Unknown number
“How is the situation there?”.

Sonia messaged that number back.
“He was devastated, I can’t see him like this, they believed me and everything is going good, as we discussed…..”
