"I'm your P.A. Why would I work with him?" I asked him as everyone looked at me except that jerk cause he was already gazing at me. "From now onwards you will work with Avinash," He dropped his word as a boom.I look at him in horror.What will I do? But I thought I wouldn't. Will work with uncle and it will continue. I thought when uncle will move to Delhi again to handle the business from there I'll be also going with him after making this jerk CEO."But I thought I too would go with you Delhi as I'm your p.a. I was not informed that..." I was cut off by him. "Ashiyaan you are very good at your work and a CEO needs a p.a like you." I don't want to work with him. Tension is twisting me inside.

Avinash's POVI can't able to take my eye off her. I just cannot. Those eyes always remind me of Megha.
