Chapter 16

Nandini had a bitter conversation with Rockey about Aryaman. He had denied marrying her whereas he told something else to her. It angered Nandini. She took decision to fire Aryaman from her company and informed Manik about the same who too supported her.

Next morning Nandini came to office at the right time. That time Manik was not there. Nandini became a little surprised as all these days he was the first one to come to office among them. But today he was not there yet. She thought maybe he is busy in some other works. After all he has to look after his own company as well.

Nandini asked her PA to prepare the resignation letter of Aryaman fast. She brought that after a few minutes. Then Nandini called Aryaman in her cabin immediately.

"Have a seat, Mr Khurana. We need to talk something important." Nandini uttered in a total formal tone. She didn't sound anywhere familiar to him.

Aryaman's was a little surprised with her behaviour but he sat on one of the chairs in front of Nandini. He didn't argue with her.

"Nandini, you called me like this in the morning. Is everything okay? Then you asked me to come to your cabin as soon as possible that to this early morning. Do you have any work?" He tried to sound casual ignoring her behavior.

Nandini had a formal smile on her face. She did not want to make the matter more complex so she thought of taking it slow.

"Of course, I have work. That too really important. At first, it's madam for you not Nandini. I am your boss here."

She looked directly into his eyes while talking.

Aryaman was taken aback with her changed behavior. "What happened, Nandini? Why are you talking like this?" He kept his cool and asked calmly.

Nandini's look got stern. "I told you already that it's not Nandini for you anymore but madam. You should know I don't like repeating my words. Now let's come to the point. I don't like beating around the bush. I heard that you are not ready to marry me?" She raised her eyebrows looking at him at the end.

Aryaman was shocked. He stared at her face for good few minutes before trying to say something. But he failed to form a proper wordings. "No... Actually..."

"Can't find what to say? Then let me do the honor. You thought Nandini doesn't have any property now, then what's the need of getting married to her? I won't get anything marrying her. Am I right or am I right, Mr Khurana?

You wanted to marry me only for my properties. But now when I don't have any properties left with me, then why will you marry me? So, stop your this drama. I should have realized your double game beforehand." Nandini muttered angrily. It's not she loved him that's why she is hurt, the thing is she trusted him and he broke it. That's what hurt her.

Aryaman nodded his head and was trying to speak something in his favor. "No, actually... Nan... Nandini...."

Nandini stopped him showing her palm. "Stop stammering. Your resignation letter is ready. Take it and leave from this office and my life right now. And don't you dare to come in front of me ever again. I don't want to see your face. This is the last time I am seeing you. Get out from here. Right now."

Aryaman wasn't ready for this. He thought Nandini is angry and it's nothing serious. He would calm her down talking to her. But he never imagined her taking such drastic step. "Nandini...."

"Urghhhh.... Not a word more. Just get lost. I can't tolerate you even for a moment in front of my eyes. If you don't go out by yourself, then I will call the security and they will throw you out of the premises. I am sure you won't like that."

Aryaman couldn't say anything more. He left the cabin taking the resignation letter from the table. As soon as he left, Manik entered into the cabin clapping.

"Very good, Nandini. I am impressed. Now our actual Nandini is back. You did very well. Keep it up. Whoever try to harm you, you need to strick back like this to them. He was just a puppet. Now it's time to catch the mastermind behind all this. Your real culprit. Nandini, come. We need to go now."

Nandini was startled at the beginning with his sudden entry, later a frown appeared on her face hearing his last words. "Where will we go?"

Manik moved close to her and stopped just in front of her. They were looking into each others eyes when Manik cupped her face lovingly. "You will get to know everything after we reach there. We don't have much time left, Nandini. We have reached the edge when everything will come in front of you. Come fast."

Manik held Nandini's hand and dragged her towards his car. He opened the door of passenger seat for Nandini and he himself sat in the driving seat. Manik didn't say anything during the whole way. Nandini also didn't ask him anything. She knew if it's not the time, then Manik won't tell him anything. So, it's better to wait than asking him continuously.

Nandini was looking out of the car. Even though Manik was driving but he was time to time stealing glances of her as if trying to capture her in his heart and mind. He drove as fast as he could. Then he stopped his car in front of Nandini's house.

"Why have we come here? It's my house." Nandini asked Manik being confused. She was puzzled about what's happening around her or what's he planning to do.

"I told you, we are here to catch the real culprit. How can you forget so soon?" Manik replied sarcastically. Nandini glared at him.

"What are you saying? Have you gone mad? How will we catch the culprit in my house?" Nandini asked angrily.

"First come in. Then you will get to know everything. Everything will be clear like water. Come." Saying this Manik dragged Nandini inside with him without giving her a moment to protest.

Manik and Nandini entered into the house. Only to find Suyyash (Manik's father), her father's friend (who was present in their wedding), Ramesh (Nandini's driver), some of their old office stuffs and two other people were there whom she didn't know. She became more confused seeing all of them together in her house. She was unable to figure out what was happening there.

"Manik, what's happening here? Why all of them are here that too together? Tell me." Nandini demanded an answer from Manik who was standing still beside her.

"Wait for a little more, Nandi. You will get to know everything in a few minutes. Let the movie begin. It's gonna be so much fun." Manik assured her rubbing his palms together at the end. His face had his famous smirk.

Nandini started at his face for a while but nodded as his voice passed some kind of assurance to her. She didn't say anything further and waited for the next happenings. Nisha was also there. She was sitting with Suyyash.

"Nisha, go and ask Rocky uncle and Vishakha aunty to come down fast. Now we will watch a climax. It won't be fun, if everyone will not be here. Specially Rocky uncle. He has to be here. It will be fun with him around," Manik said with a smirk.

Nisha got up and went to call then. That time Manik did something in his laptop. After a while, Nisha came back with chacha chachi.

Seeing everyone Rocky became shocked at first but he masked that fast. He became angry and shouted, "What's happening here? Why are you all here in my house? What's all this?"

"Uncle, why are you getting angry? Actually we will watch a climax now and it won't be fun without you. Please have a seat and give us a little time of yours. I know how precious your time is but sorry I have to take some of it. We will be glad, if you adjust with us for a while." Manik replied in his sarcastic tone and plastering a fake smile on his face.

"Manik, I am not understanding, what's happening here! Will you please tell me? I can't take all this suspense anymore." Nandini again asked being impatient.

"She is still the most impatient soul in the Earth." Manik thought in mind and smiled a little but hid that soon.

Then composing himself and maintaining a plain look on his face, he replied, "I won't say anything but this clip will say a lot of things for sure. Watch it."

Then Manik played a clip in his laptop. Seeing that everyone became shocked except Manik, his father and those employees. Nandini looked at her chachi with a shocked expression. Tears were about to fall from her eyes...

Precap: What's in the clip!!!
