[ In the morning!!]

In Sabharwal Mansion!!

Kainat woke up at 9 AM, saw her watch, and realized she was late for the office. She quickly went to take a bath, got ready, and came downstairs.

As she came downstairs, she saw Riva and Sandeep. They were whispering something to each other, she walked towards them and flicked the head of Riva from behind.

"What is happening here, what are you guys whispering?" Kainat said this to them, while looking at them suspiciously and moving towards the dining table. Sandeep and Riva looked at each other with little fear , and followed her to show as if they were talking about nothing.

They too sat on the dining table, when  Kainat said while eating food "what happened, you guys were talking about something, you can tell me too."

"N no..no....nothing w..w..we were not talking about anything serious ........vo to bas ese hi" Riva hesitantly replied this to Kainat while Sandeep was looking at her non-stop as he was feared that she will get to know what they were talking.

Kainat hummed at Riva's words and asked her to come to the office with here as there is something important to discuss and left from there after completing her breakfast.

Riva and Sandeep looked at each other and sighed with relief,"uncle! I will talk to you later about this, If I don't go to the office right now, Kainat will definitely lose her temper and she will open my head, Surely!" Riva said this with scared expressions and then left behind Kainat .

Agnivanshi Villa!!

Agastya was having his breakfast silently, Madan Kaka came there to serve him juice. Kaka wanted to ask him about last night's anger, but out of fear, he couldn't say anything. So, he left there disappointed.

Agastya finished his breakfast then walked out from the house in a hurry , sat in the car and left for his office.

In Agastya's office!!

He was working on his laptop when Aangray knocked at the door. Agastya permitted him to enter .

"Boss...... Mr. Saraf is here with his team for the meeting everyone is waiting." Agastya didn't react to anything to this then closed the laptop and stood up from his seat then walked towards the conference room.

Agastya entered the conference room then everyone stood up from their seats to greet him.

He came and sat on the head's chair then everyone took their seats as well.

"Mr. Agnivanshi, thanku for giving this opportunity to our team......... Here are the designs, you are the one of the best builders of Hyderabad, and My company and I want you to handle this contract and be our lead architect and for this we are ready to give you a good amount" Mr.Saraf said this while passing his file with designs in it in front of Agastya.

Agastya didn't react to his words . After a few minutes Agastya said while closing the file,"how much?"

"2..2..crores" Mr. Saraf replied to Agastya's question while looking at his employees.

Agastya moved backward to the back rest of the chair while folding his hands on chest and said "Mr.Saraf, I am sorry to say, but no one will waste their time on these designs, especially with such a terrible offer. I didn't find your designs up to the mark, so I won't be assisting with your project. Thank you for coming, you may leave now"

Agastya said this then stood from his place when Mr. Saraf said from behind in anger stopping him. "How dare you Agnivanshi!  You are forgetting that when you were struggling, I supported you. And what kind of professional behavior is this? You can't insult my designs like this....... Go on, reject me. I don't want to work with scoundrels like you anyway.

Upon hearing Mr. Saraf's words, anger rise in Agastya's eyes. He held Mr. Saraf's collar and said to him with anger filled eyes, clenching his jaw

" I guess some people have short memories. How many times will you count the same favor?".......... "As for your designs, they speak for themselves—no insult needed." Agastya continued after a little pause while releasing his collars and adjusting them.

Saying this much, Agastya walked away from there. Mr. Saraf slammed his hand on the table and said in anger, "Don't worry, Agastya. I'll ruin you very soon, wait and watch"

Agastya entered into his cabin with anger and removed his over coat and threw that on the ground.

He took a glass from the rack and poured some alcohol into it and walked towards the balcony putting his one hand inside pocket and holding the drink's glass in the other.

After spending some alone time his anger calmed down, he went back to his chair and started working on laptop again.

Suddenly someone opened his cabin door and came inside without knocking, Agastya raised his eyes just to find Deep, Ratan and Shaurya standing in front of him.

He made the fist of his hand and closed his eyes in anger. He stood up from his place. He was about to say something but before him Deep said "your guards were not letting us come in, that is why we have to come direct without knocking".

"Why are you here, what do you want from me?" Agastya asked Deep with irritation. Before anyone could say anything shaurya stepped forward towards Agastya and hugged him "Bhai! How are you.".

He said this much then broke the hug. Agastya didn't react to anything on this and he stepped backward and walked towards windows with both hands in his pocket.

"Agastya we are here to take you with us to Agnivanshi mansion" Deep said this with little fear

Within a second Agastya Replied " I am not going anywhere". "Your dadi is yearning to meet you plz come with us Agastya. She is very upset." Ratan said to Agastya in his words.

"Every year, the Raisinghanis host a get-together, and for the past four years, you have been making some excuse or the other to avoid it...........If not for anyone else, you could at least come for the sake of our family's reputation. What will they think?"

Deep said this to Agastya.

"Huh! Family's reputation!" Agastya said while laughing sarcastically.

He continued his words by saying, "Are you serious Mr. Agnivanshi, stop calling your family like my family....... And I am not going to come anywhere so stop wasting my time. I am not sure about you but my time is definitely very precious!

After saying this Agastya sat on his chair and started to work again. And Deep, Ratan and Shaurya left from there.

In Kainat's office!

"Hello Mr. Khatri, It has been five days, but your materials still haven't arrived at the construction site............ I need the materials at the construction site by this evening, or you will be responsible for the consequences." Kainat hanged the phone warning him.

Riva was sitting just in front of Kainat........she was lost in her thoughts when Kainat put her phone on the table harshly and she came out of her thoughts with a jerk.

She was thinking about how to tell Kainat what Sandeep Uncle had said in the morning. But she was not able to gather enough courage to speak.

Kainat said to Riva while working on her laptop "I have cracked Mr. Gondavana's deal" "what?? Are you serious. Kainat! This was one of your dream projects" Riva exclaimed with joy on Kainat's words.

"But we had to face little loss" kainat said "What? How much?" Riva asked.

Kainat gulped took a deep breath and said "4 crores!", "Fu*k!" Riva widened her eyes, and stood up from her seat with her mouth hung open.

"Do you have any idea what you are saying. 4 crores loss...... And you are saying this a little loss. You know that we can't handle loss of even 2 crore. We have to open our new branch." She felt out of words.

"I will cop up with it soon but the main thing is don't tell anything about this to dad. He won't be able to take this stress" Sighing out of frustration kainat said this.

Suddenly her phone rang and it was Sandeep calling her." Hello beta! Sorry to disturb you but had Riva told you about anything"  he said. "Tell me about anything, what are you talking about dad!".  She replied to his words.

" If it's possible can you plz come home now, if you are free. I need to talk about something urgent to you!" He hung up the phone completing his sentence.

Kainat questioned Riva about what dad was saying. She didn't reply to her on this and then kainat asked her if there was any meeting there.

To which Riva nodded negatively. So they immediately walked out of the office, sat in the car and left for home.

After sometime they reached home. Sandeep was pacing here and there in the hall. Kainat came and asked him why to call her urgently to which he replied with little fear as he was not sure about her reaction "Actually beta.....umm... Ra...raisinghani's have hosted a get together day after tomorrow and they are eagerly calling you too this time..... I called you here to ask you to come with us and not only Raisinghani's, this is my request to beta. Please!"

As soon as Kainat heard the name of Raisinghanis she clenched her jaw and closed her eyes in anger but soon opening her eyes she said " you know how much I hate Hyderabad then what's the point to even ask me dad! You know my answer is still you asked me this..... It was of no use! You all go I have no problem with this, but please don't ask me or force me to go with you"

"I am not forcing you I am requesting you please! for the sake of me say yes na baba! Raisinghani's are our friends like family. They all want to meet you. I didn't even remember when was the last time you visited Hyderabad, they all want to meet you, they want to see you" Sandeep said this to Kainat making a sad face.

"Want to see me...... Dad I am not  an exhibition that someone wanted to see me. I am sorry! I can't do this" Kainat said this and left from there to her room in anger.

Upon reaching her room she slammed the door so hard that its sound echoed in the whole house
