Just then his phone rang; he was still staring at geet.
She was looking at him and then at the phone questioningly.
"As my secretary, your job profile includes answering my phone geet", he said arrogantly.
She huffed inwardly at his rudeness and picked up the phone "hello", when sasha walked into the cabin.
"Mk, I would like to discuss about the London project"
On the other side of the phone pinky jumped at hearing geets voice
"Oye geet, did you see our DD 'dhak dhak yet. Is he hot or what?"
"Told you, you are going to be speechless" and she continued on with her rambling not realising she called MK's phone.
Maan was waiting for geet to say something on the phone, but after the hello she had been quiet.
He said impatiently "geet phone is to answer too not just listen"
Pinky heard maans voice and said "Oh my god DD is there, sorry geet. Inform him he has a visitor waiting in the visitor's room and he has an appointment with Maan sir" and quickly hanged up.
She turned around to see Sasha staring at her as though she committed a faux pas and had a sly smile on her face while Maan was looking at her expectantly.
She looked at Maan "you have a visitor sir waiting in the visitor's room. He has an appointment with you"
He nodded "fine organise all the noida construction files on my table in an hour"
"Sure sir"
He then looked at sasha absently "sasha schedule an appointment at 4 this evening with me and we can discuss the London project"
She looked at hime demurely and said "yes MK"
He left for the visitor's room after sasha's reply.
Sasha looked up at geet giving her a sly smile and left the room too.
Geet looked around and let out the breath she was holding ever since Maan asked her about the termination papers.
She had an inclination on what sasha's sly smile meant, she was waiting for her to make a mistake so sasha can use it against her.
She has to be extra careful now, with both Maan and sasha after her for different reasons.

Maan looked at the man across the table from him, he dint have a choice now. Like it or not he was responsible. He took a deep breath and pushed the suitcase on the table across to him.
"Make sure the kuhrana's name does not get involved in any of this Mr.Sharma. This could create international issues"
"Of course not sir, my middle name is discretion. All will be done under wraps and no one will hear wind of this, I can guarantee you that. This money will be across the border and into Canada in no time. As I promised I will also make sure that all legal restrictions are removed from your brother"
Maan quickly jerked a nod, stood up to leave the room.
"One thing before I go Mr.Sharma make sure our acquaintance does not become public knowledge. You wouldn't like the consequence if it does"
Mr.Sharma nodded with fear and left KC after Maan left the room.
***
Canada
"I just spoke to chote saab dev and he said he has sent the money to the required people".
Dev looked at his mother angrily, "he could have done it four and a half months ago when I was desperate for that money. He first throws me out to the sharks and now he tries to send the money to clear the legal restrictions after he knows I paid off my gambling debts. He is selfish and mean"
"Dev, don't speak about your brother like that. He has always had your best interest at heart, yours and vicky's in fact. He never treated you both like step brothers he always treated you as his own"
"It was my choice not to go back after your father passed away, but I have never been made to feel wanting all these years. He has always provided for me and your sister"
Dev looked down in shame, 'what his mother said was true. He was never treated as a step brother by his dadi or by Maan'
She looked at dev's reaction and understood what he was feeling, so did she but for a complete different reason. She stared off to a distance thinking about the bad memories of two and a half months ago.
How she was part of the con- game that his son and daughter in law planned in ruining a young woman's life. She was not aware of anything until everything came out in the open. She wasn't even aware that dev was married at that time, she called dadi ma to know that dev has been married for more than a year now and has been living in Canada. She pretended that she was aware of everything just trying to know if dadi ma knew.
After all of what happened she was not sure about dev's character anymore. In the last few years he claimed to be staying in friends place trying to run a partnership business. She believed him and let him be; only now she has come to know that he has been married all this time not even telling his own mother.
She was disgusted in the way dev behaved but in the end he is her son and she cannot leave him on the roads.
She turned around to see dev lost in his thoughts too, ever since they came back two and a half months ago naintara immediately left to india stating she is arranging for ways to get the money for clearing the legal restrictions on dev.
She was afraid to ask naintara what she was planning to do to organise for the money. She has a better idea about her daughter in law now; she is not the good soul she thought her to be before she knew about her.
But before she could get carried away with her thoughts she wanted to inform what Maan told her in the end. "Dev"
He looked up at his mother.
"Maan asked you to call him".
***
Maan walked back to his cabin after his meeting with Mr.Sharma, he was in a terrible mood. He knew he was not going to be polite company to anyone. He sat in his chair and thought about what he had just done, something he was completely against doing.
But he told himself, 'you have done the right thing Maan. He has paid off his debts and the least you can do is get him out of the legal mess he got himself into. Furthermore it's done no point thinking about it and dissecting in his head'
He picked up his phone to dial geet inter com number and she said "hello"
When he heard her voice he felt the tightness in his chest easing.
He sharply replied, "Geet make sure no calls are transferred to me and I am not disturbed by any means. I don't want to talk to anyone until my next meeting which is at 4. You got that"
She replied "yes sir, got that"
"Fine" he snapped back and hanged up, immediately he felt the loss of her warm voice. He was annoyed with his own reaction so he quickly shut his thoughts of geet and started going through the files on his table.
On the other side geet hanged the phone angrily, 'why does he have to snap at everything'. She made the arrangements to divert his call to her room and wondering why he was always angry and snappy. 'I mean there should be a reason he seems to have a sense of rightness in him but this character does not match with that...'
She quickly stopped herself from thinking about him any further and continued with her work.
***
About an hour later, her phone was ringing. Display was showing no number, she picked it up and started with the routine phone introduction.
"Hello khurana constructions, how may I help you?"
"Hello", dev answered from the other side
Geet's heart skipped a beat and her heart stalled for a moment hearing that voice. It sounded so familiar, the voice repeated
"Hello"
'Could it be him' she thought for a moment, 'but what are the possibilities. The companies name is khurana constructions and Dev's last name was khurana too'. But before she can get carried away with that thought she reminded herself, 'geet what are you thinking, how many handas are there in hoshiarpur and not all are related to you either. You don't even know some of them and how many kapoors are there in the entertainment world. You cannot freak out every time you hear a voice that is similar to dev. First find out who this'
So she answered briskly, "Yes sorry, how may I help you?"
The voice on the other side replied "may I speak to Maan singh khurana please"
She hesitated since Maan already asked her not to transfer any calls to him, but what if this was important. So she asked again
"May I know who is speaking?"
"This is his brother from overseas; just inform him it's his brother"
This eased her mind a bit as she was sure maan sir's brother can never do something so vile. She convinced herself this is not Dev.
"Sure could you just hold for a moment I shall just confirm if Maan sir is available"
"Sure"
She immediately dialled his number, "sir"
Maan answered angrily "geet I told you not to disturb me, what's so urgent that you had to disturb me"
"Sir your brother from overseas is on the line"
Maan took a deep breath, it has to be dev he thought "fine geet connect him to me but next time don't disturb me"
She answered a quick yes and connected Maan to his brother.
***
"Bro"
"Dev"
"I heard from mom that you have sent money to clear the restrictions imposed on me. Thank you"
"That's fine dev; I did what I had to"
Dev was angry with Maan's tone of voice. He always made him feel as though he is beneath him in some way. It was almost at the tip of his tongue to ask him then why did he not help him the last time he came to him for help and what not he had to do to pay his debts.
Maan continued, "I asked you to call for a reason. I heard mom saying that naintara is in India trying to organise the money that I have sent. I don't know what you will do but get her back to Canada as soon as you can. This is my main condition for the money. I don't want you or naintara to come to India for another 6 months at the least for any reason. I will handle everything here"
"But bro, why don't you want us to come down, we want to be with dadi too"
"Dev what you did last time has already made her very unwell, she is just recovering from the emotional blow. It is because of her I am asking you not to come back to India for some time. I want to give her time to get better"
"Bro should we not be there if dadi is not well"
"No dev, unless it's an emergency no you don't have to be here. I will inform you if it is"
"But hear me well dev I don't want you back here for a minimum of 6 months and you make sure naintara is very clear on this. If I see her trying to make any kind of changes to this I will revoke my plans and ensure this time she becomes a sitting duck with you. As I said I want dadi to get well this time and want none of you and your wife's antics to upset her"
Dev was real mad now hearing maans ultimatum but he cannot do anything other than get naintara back, Maan is in control now. But she wasn't talking to him either. He was completely clueless on what to do.
"One more thing dev just because I want you to stay back in Canada does not mean I want you to be jobless. I want to see if you have any capabilities at all to be a part of the Khurana Empire"
This eased dev's mind a bit so he is going to be tested which is fine by him. This time he will show Maan he is better than him.
"Yes bro what do you want"
"Start a KC branch in Canada, identify the market potential and finalise a project. I shall send you the initial funds to setup the business and if you get a good project I will help you with the project too. Now the ball is in your court dev"
"Fine bro, I will keep you posted on that"
With than Maan hanged up with a smirk on his face now he doesn't have to worry about those two for some time so his people can keep an eye on dev before he can get into trouble. Naintara, he thought 'well he will cross that bridge when he has to.....'
