Chapter 4
"BD was right.." Divya mumbled. She, Ayesha, and ShivOmRu had just gotten to Oberoi Industries half an hour ago and Divya was going through all the files. "This Svetlana really messed with the finances big time and all of the old investors have backed out. We need a new investor."
"Lekin, who would be willing to invest in Oberoi Industries?" Ayesha asked.
(Divya's Look)
"I dont know...but Sonia said she contacted someone. They should be here soon." Divya replied as she got up with the files in her hand. As she was leaving, Divya accidentally slipped because of a bit of water and fell backwards....except she didnt hit the floor. She opened her eyes to see that a man wearing a 3 piece suit had caught her just in time. Meanwhile Ayesha was watching from the side as Divya and this random man just stared into each other's eyes....and they werent even blinking.
"Ahem...Divya?" Ayesha cleared her throat to get Divya's attention. "Are you okay?"
"Huh? Yeah..Im fine." Divya replied then looked back to the man, "Let go."
The man smirked and did exactly that...resulting in Divya falling flat on her butt. "Aah!"
"Divya..." Ayesha went to help Divya up while the man just dusted himself off.
"What the hell was that?" Divya asked angrily.
"What? You're the one who said let go...so thats what I did." The man finally spoke up.
"Seriously? Thats not what I meant and you know it. Who drops someone like that anyways?"
"I do."
By this time, lots of the employees were watching, even Shivaay, Om & Rudra came out of their cabins hearing their voices. Divya didnt care about any of that though, she was just furious at the way this man was speaking to her so she did something that she saw her mom do countless number of times and something that now comes naturally to her. She picked up a glass of water from the table nearby and splashed it onto the man's face.
Everyone had different reactions to this. Ayesha laughed as she knew this was going to happen, the man was both surprised and a bit amused where as Shivaay, Omkara & Rudra all were all shocked.
"Bhaiya thats just-" Rudra started to say.
"Like Bhabhi used to do." Om finished. Shivaay stared at the sight infront of him as he remembered one of his many fights with Anika.
*Flashback*
"Shivaay...I've had it with you. You never tell me anything. Who hides things from their own wife." Anika yelled.
"The person whose wife couldnt act if her life depended on it." Shivaay replied. Anika gasped feeling insulted.
"What do you mean? I am a great actress...I could have fooled Svetlana if you had just told me what you were doing."
"Ya right." Shivaay started laughing. "You? Great actress? Hahahaha! Haha!"
"Shivaay enough okay...I wasnt joking."
"Hahaha Haha!"
"Shivaay...Im warning you, Ill get mad!"
"Hahah haha!"
When Shivaay didnt stop laughing, Anika grabbed the glass of water by their side table and...
SPLASH!
Right on Shivaay's face.
"Baghad Billa."
"Paanika!"
*Flashback ends*
"Gadha." Divya muttered. The man raised his eye brows and then pulled Divya towards him.
"What did you just call me? Gadha? As in...a donkey? How exactly am I a donkey?"
"I dont know...actually when I look at you, thats the first thing I think of. Maybe because your face structure..." Divya looked closely at the man's face, tracing the outline with her finger, "....reminds me of this one donkey that I saw."
Ayesha started laughing and so did Rudra but he was quickly stopped by Om.
"I remind you of a donkey? Really?"
"Yep..." Divya smirked.
"Well you know what you remind me of?" He asked, "Jangli Billi."
"How dare you..." Divya gasped, "You-"
"Oh Mr. Malik, you're here." At that moment Shivaay's secretary, Sonia interupted them. "Divya ma'am, this is Raghav Malik, CEO of Malik industries....Our new investor."
"WHAT???" Divya looked at Sonia then back at Raghav who was back to smirking. "No..not happening. You can go, Ill find another investor."
"Really now? And how many people do you have lined up? Ready to invest in a company that just barely got out of bankrupcy?"
Divya tried to say something but of course, she didnt have anyone ready.
"Thats what I thought...so you have no choice Ms..."
"Divya." Divya replied through gritted teeth.
Raghav thought for a second, "Yeah no, I think I like Jangli Billi better."
"Divi..." Ayesha pulled her to the side, "He is right. Nobody will be willing to invest in Oberoi Industries. He is the only one who came by himself to invest....we have no choice."
"He came by himself..He came by himself." Divya said as she suddenly thought of something.
"Thats what I just said."
Ignoring her, Divya walked back to Raghav. "Why are you investing in this company?"
"What?"
"You are the CEO of Malik Industries, you're successful and definetly have no gain in investing in Oberoi Industries so why do it? When nobody else is willing to then why you?"
"I could ask you the same question. Why did you buy Oberoi Industries, you knew the consition this company is in so why did you buy it when its not a profit for you?"
"He's right...why didnt we think of this?" Om whispered to Shivaay. " Oberoi Mansion is one thing but Oberoi Industries was almost bankrupt, why would anyone want to buy it...why did she buy our company?"
"Bhaiya?" Rudra shook Shivaay who was still in awe at the similarities between Anika and this random girl. "Are you okay?"
"Yeah I'm fine...it's just, Divya reminds me of Anika."
"You miss bhabhi a lot na?" Om asked. Shivaay just nodded with tears.
"If bhabhi were here none of this would be happening. My super bhabhi would have taught this Svetlana a good lesson and chased her away...why did bhabhi leave bhaiya?" Rudra asked. "Why did Prinku leave with bhabhi instead of stopping her. I'll never understand."
"So...Ill be coming into the office from time to time, just to make sure Im investing my money in the proper place."
"Sir...you are based in London right?" Ayesha asked. "So you must be staying in a hotel?"
"Yeah." Raghav nodded.
"Well why dont you stay with us at Oberoi Mansion while you are here?"
"What the hell? Stay in Oberoi Mansion....with us? Whats wrong with Ayesha?" Divya glared at her friend. Pulling her away, she whispered, "What are you doing? Why did you invite him to live in Oberoi Mansion?"
"Divi, we need to be polite with him....and its just for a little while." Ayesha explained. "Relax, just remember this is for your family. To save their business."
"I would love to stay at Oberoi Mansion, IF... Ms Jangli Billi will request me." Raghav replied looking at Divya.
"You-" Divya pointed her finger a him but was nudged by Ayesha. So she took a deep breathe and put her finger down, "Fine...come stay with us."
"Is that supposed to be you requesting me?" Raghav raised one eyebrow. "You really dont sound like you mean it."
"Please, come stay with us at Oberoi Mansion." Divya put on a fake smile and said through her teeth.
"Better....not perfect but better." Raghav said. "You should practice more but yeah Ill come stay with you."
"Ive had enough of his smirking." Divya told Ayesha as Raghav walked away. "Im seriously this close to breaking his face."
