Part 33 Mithra's Move

I looked at Khushi who was nervous.

"Are you tensed?" I asked.

"Are not you?"

I nodded NO.

"Why are you tense? Your father is your side it seems"

"For how long?"

I looked at her plainly.

"No doubt he took my side but his opposition against Mrs. Gupta is so weak. He was not so harsh with her. Even after my father understood her dirty side, she confidently argued with him. Can't you understand she is not giving up?"

"So what if she is not giving up? In fact, I don't want her to give up"

"Arnav, you don't understand. She tried to blame you. She said you are egoistic"

"So?"

"What if those words sat on my father's head?"

"So what if those words sat on your father's head? What will he do?"

"He won't do anything but she will do hiding in his shadow"

"That's what I want... let her do anything. Now, I just brought her dirty game in the open without accusing her. If she goes overbroad, I won't mind tearing her mask in the open"

Khushi sighed.

"Why are you so restless, Khushi?"

"Because I know her, Arnav"

"Relax... I'm here"

"I'm not bothering about me but about your business"

"What do you mean? Don't you bother about YOU?"

"No, because I have YOU," She said confidently.

For that one statement, I would do anything...!

I smiled.

"You won't let her harm me but we have to do something to save the business, Arnav"

"I have been working on it" I smiled.

"Is it?" She became excited.

"Yeah... I'm trying to sort it out"

"How?"

"If we buy our company shares from the out person's hand, we can stop Mr. Gupta from playing with us. She can do nothing if we have ninety percent shares in our hands"

"Won't it affect our company growth?"

"It will but we can avoid its downfall in the first place"

"Oh..."

"Are you really bothered only about our business?"

"Yeah..." she nodded yes.

"It seems she wants to separate us. what if she tries to do that?" I asked.

"Will you let her do that?" she questioned me.

"I won't... but it's not about only my wish"

"Do you think I will wish to get separated?"

I was silent. I wanted her to answer me.

"I will die instead of going back to the Palace" Khushi said.

I gulped hard. This was not what I expected from her. I wanted her to say, I WON'T GO LEAVING YOU. Was I expecting a lot from Khushi? Or, was this so early to expect? I took a deep breath.
