CHAPTER 5: "RETURN OF HEIR."

Aditi kept her mind and soul in her work and didn't even bother about the other things. Rohit found Riya some talented designers but they couldn't be as unique as Aditi. But she still picked a person name who barely matched the uniqueness of Aditi.

"Rohit this person Karan seems good.". She hugged him from behind.

"As you like.", he replied, returning to her hug.

"Do you think I was the middle wheel, I know that because of that bet you lost Aditi. I shouldn't have asked you that question in front of your friends. Now you lost a good friend.", Riya spoke, and she tried to pull an innocent face.

"It's okay, it's not your fault." He replied as he kissed on her forehead.

'She is nothing but an orphan girl. How dare she play the role of Mother Teresa? Sorry Aditi he is mine now.' Riya thought as she hugged Rohit.

Mishra's Villa...

"Mother Anan is coming back tomorrow, I wish he can settle now.", Henna spoke as she had a sip of her tea.

Meera Mishra Wife of Bhargav Mishra, also one of the skilled designer in the Fashion world. Suhani Mishra Wife of Rajesh Mishra, also a Legend singer.

"It's good that he is coming back. Old man, did the flowers come today also?", She then turned towards Elder Mishra and spoke.

"They did, and Aditi sent them back.", Elder Mishra spoke as he took another sip of his tea.

"Old man, should I just call that brat's mother and give her a warning.", She spoke.

"Why bother. Aditi is a stubborn girl he will give up eventually.", Elder Mishra spoke.

"Where is Bhargav, why is he not home yet?", he continued.

"He happened meet a friend so he will be back in other 30 minutes.", Meera replied.

Inside an art gallery.

"She would have turned 22 this year if not for that accident.", A man in his 40s spoke. It's a voice with pain.

"No matter what, she is still alive in your paintings.", Bhargav Mishra comforted him.

"Professor Bhargav and Professor Varun hello we honoured to meet the world-renowned artists to be a part of this event.", It delighted the art gallery owner to see them in person, but it was sad that he was in a bit of hurry.

"Go ahead, we are just here to see.", Bhargav spoke in a softer tone.

"Then I'll excuse myself.", The manager left as he still had to receive some important pieces. He felt it's a pity that he could speak them.

Inside Aditi's Apartment.

"Get me the file of Venture holdings by tomorrow. If not, don't come to work tomorrow.", She hung up the phone without listening to the other side.

"Aditi let me show you something. Come here.", Wendy spoke she was gazing at her phone.

They filled the websites with the news about the engagement between Life Shine's CEO and Daughter of Manoj Varma, the chairman of Varma Industries [one subsidiary of MEDIA SCORE].

"This piece of shit, he really doesn't have any bit of shame. How dare he play with you? And now announce the engagement with that Riya. He is really garbage.", Wendy couldn't hold and cursed.

"Cool down. I'm not bothered. I thought it's a pity to leave that 12 years of friendship, but it doesn't hold any meaning now.", She walked towards the kitchen. She's hurt, but she never wanted to throw blame on someone.

Inside Rohit's office.

"Rohit congrats man. Finally got Riya and also her inheritance.", Ben, one of best buddy of Rohit, spoke.

"I love her dude.", Rohit spoke as he sipped his coffee.

"I thought you loved Aditi, but it surprised me when you agreed to that bet.no wonder you are a businessman.", Ben spoke.

"Boss the new cosmetics are here. These are the separate 2 sets you asked me to keep aside.", Assistant of his brought two bags.

"Send one to Ms. Riya and other to Ms. Aditi.", Rohit spoke as he returned to his seat.

"But boss Ms. Aditi never took these products, she returned them every time...",

"I know it and I'm asking you to send it.", He cut his assistant off and asked to transfer the gift.

As expected, the gift returned like every time. Rohit felt uneasy, but left back all his thoughts.

New York city.

"Boss the plane is ready.", Rishi spoke as he entered Anan's room.

"I'm done, let's go." Anan stood and walked towards the car.

Aditi entered the office next morning and got startled by the rush in the entire building. She entered her office. Sandy entered her office.

"What's with the fuss out there?", Aditi questioned as she opened the documents on Venture holdings.

"Elder madam just arrived at the office with Chairman and there is a rumour that Mr Anan is going to arrive today.", Sandy spoke as Aditi could guess the excitement in Sandy's voice.

"Cool. When is the meeting with Mr Vikram Sena from Venture holdings?"

"In other 2 hours manager.", Sandy replied.

"Done you may go back.", Aditi dug into her files.
