New FF - Just Another Love Story(Updt Chpt 9 pg22) - Page 12

She plucked her cell phone out of the velvet sheath, plopped the box close and handed it back to her host saying "This does not belong to me"
"Well, if it suites you this way, then it must be it. Unfortunately, I have an important business to deal with, or else I would have loved to stay you back, and argue with you, till you were completely convinced to take the case along, but I guess there will be plenty of time for that."
"My chauffer will drop you back home, please, do not reject the offer. You came in my car, which makes you my guest, and you will go back in it, because I say so. Your safety till you reach home is my concern, so your rejection will not be much of a help I'm afraid. I do not take 'No' for an answer in such cases" he added quite sternly.

Naku thought it best to keep mum and do as he demanded. After all it was not that bad an idea, and besides she was sure that she will be alone in the car on her way back home. Her egocentric self pompous host will not be accompanying her. She rose to say goodbye giving out a sigh of relief thinking that it was over, and she would never have to see this arrogant self obsessive man ever in her life. It was as if she spoke her thoughts aloud, for even before she could say anything, her host said "There will be time when I will be accompanying you, back to your place in the future, do not doubt it, but for now, you have to go alone I am afraid."
"And yes, in case you are wondering whether we would really meet in the future, let me be very specific when I tell you – Yes, we will meet in the future and very soon. – goodnight Miss Chauhan, Sudarshan here will see you to the car" he gestured to the man who guided her to the table earlier.

Naku was dumbstruck at the man's presumptions and her mouth opened, but her wits just came back, before it was too late; and she decided to keep mum till she got the hell out of there. Her host spoke to Sudarshan in some regional tongue which Naku tried to figure out. Sudarshan just nodded at each of his suggestions, and turned around to face Naku. She took the gesture and started walking towards the exit of the lounge as hurriedly as possible; but Sudarshan caught up with her in no time. She made it out of the reception aisle when the chauffer driven BMW came to stand in front of the wide ornate gate of the hotel. The chauffer as usual came out of the car, opened the door of the passenger seat and held it open, till Naku was safely seated inside the car. Then he closed the door, he had a word with Sudarshan, who clearly gave the chauffer some instructions, to which he nodded. Then he boarded the driver's seat and steered the car out of the hotel premises and straight towards Naku's apartment.
