Chapter 3

At RM Holdings;

        He walked out of his Bugatti buttoning up his blazer and wearing his shades. The guards at the gate bowed to him and he went inside the office building throwing the car keys to the guard. As he planned to take over the company within a week he chose today. 

     Everyone greeted him meekly with their gaze down, standing in a row holding their breath. He went inside his cabin giving them a curt nod as he disappeared inside his cabin and everyone sighed in relief. He has a dominating aura around him that makes everyone's breath stuck in their throat.

      He was a man who talk less and work more, a calculative personality, with a manipulative nature. The world calls him a monster for a reason. He never shows mercy on someone making mistakes.

     Tarun, his assistant, came behind him and stood across from his desk as he sat on his swivel chair. "Sir, everyone is already present in the meeting hall, we can start the meeting now," A man in his mid-twenties told him and he nodded, going through the file in his hand. "Let's go," he stood up walking out of the cabin and Tarun followed him behind. 

      He walked inside the meeting hall removing his shades. Walking up to the mic he cleared his throat to get everyone's attention. The numerous murmurs which were resonating in the hall went silent with his gesture. 

    "Good morning everyone, I don't like beating around the bush so I would directly come to the point. Be considerate towards your work. Don't mix your personal life with your professional one. Do your best and don't give me a reason to kick you out" He was saying and everybody present in the meeting hall listened to him with a pin drop silence. 

 "One thing you should know about me is I don't like negligence towards work. If you can't handle the pressure now you can never achieve success, I expect your 100%" with that he completed his speech and the hall was again filled with numerous murmurs. 

     Girls were drooling over their handsome boss while some were afraid to lose their job. "The meeting is over. Everyone get back to work" he announced with a cold demeanour and walked out of the meeting hall. 

      "The new CEO is such a hottie," a female employee said to another colleague. "He is kinda sexy but he's cold," another girl said observing his looks when he was giving his speech in the meeting hall a while ago. They were gossiping about their new CEO while working on the task they were appointed to do. 

"You guys should focus on work rather than gossiping" A man in his mid-thirties who is the head of the finance department in the company said from behind, clearing his throat and startling them both. "Yes sir" both girls gave him an embarrassed smile and got indulged in their work again. He shook his head and left not before saying "girls nowadays"

      "Sir we got the call from the Singhania industry. Should I fix your meeting?" Tarun asked and he tilted his head towards Tarun. Avyaansh smirked knowing his arrow hit the target while Tarun was perplexed. "Arrange dinner meeting with them tonight and send me the reports of the last three months. I want every detail of the invested money" Avyaansh ordered him and Tarun left, nodding at him. 

      His phone chimed with a message and his fingers stopped typing on his laptop. He unlocked his phone and leaned back on the chair, and going through the message a smirk appeared on the corner of his lips seeing Her picture. Shanaya was on the college campus, sitting with her other friends and laughing at the jokes they were cracking. 

    "Laugh as much as you want because your doom is on its way coming near you" Avyaansh smirked thinking about the trap he planned for her. "You are my trump card, Shanaya" he leaned back on his chair. His voice was void of any emotions and that smirk never left his face.

Meanwhile at Singhania heights;

    "Did you get the appointment with him?" Rajeev asked his secretary who stood in front of the desk with a rigid posture. "Sir I have called his assistant and fixed your dinner meeting tonight" David, a man in his mid forty replied. "After so many calls he finally agreed to the meeting" David further added. 

  

     "He's looking for land near the seaside to build a luxurious seven-star hotel. This is the information we got till now from the resources" David told him as he already dug out the information for his boss knowing well he would be asking for it.

     "This was the land he's looking for '' Rajeev turned on the projector and pointed at the land with laser light in the dark room illuminated with a light coming from the wall screen. They both were in the meeting room discussing the land. "This land is Shanaya's mom's land and she had transferred it in her name before her death," Rajeev said. 

     "The marketing price of this land is going higher day by day. If the deal went perfect then we can earn in trillion within the year" David told him. "Buy the other land near the seaside" Rajeev ordered his secretary. "Sir the villagers living at the seaside refused to cooperate. They are making a hindrance in buying the other lands" David informed him. 

     "These greedy insects" Rajeev shook his head in annoyance. "Offer them money and sort out this matter if they still deny then you know what to do" Rajeev ordered and David nodded in affirmation knowing how to handle this matter. "And call for the meeting with the shareholders" Rajeev ordered and David replied "sure sir" When it comes to business Rajeev is cruel. 

       David left after discussing his schedule and he got busy with his work when his phone rang. Sliding the green icon he answered the call "Hello" Rajeev said. "I need 5 million immediately," the person on the other side said. "Why this much amount? What happened this time?" Rajeev asked frustratedly. "I need the money immediately, I will tell you later" 

      "I hope you didn't cause any problem again" Rajeev said sternly. "Believe me, I didn't. But I need the money immediately" the person begged. "I will ask David to take care of this matter" saying that the call was disconnected. Rajeev called David and ordered him to transfer the money. 

      "Just a few months more then everything will be at its place" he muttered before focusing on the file in his hand. Rajeev had worked hard day and night in the past 10 years to make this company India's topmost company.
