Part 7
----------------
The trip brought in a lot of changes in her prejudiced thoughts about Krishna. Right from food, to meetings, rooms, presentations etc etc everything was taken care of and all the intended work and related conferences went on smoothly and on schedule. Being the Managing Director, he had his secretaries at his disposal but despite that he organized everything, that too with a warm and majestic smile on his face.
In spite of all this, somehow Pratigya couldn't really bring herself to trust or regard Krishna completely. Whatever he may be to his business mates, it can't be forgotten that he had plans to use her sisters for dirty reasons. Hence, she chose to remain in her shell and stayed away from him. He sensed it or not , no one knows. He was himself that's all.
One day, the main agenda was to see a vast land for a new production unit of their factory. It was under the foot of a hill and was densely populated with trees.
"clearing off these trees and constructing a factory gonna take ages and waiting for such a long time is of no use" was the opinion of the majority.
But during night time of that day, pratigya was astonished to know the profit and details that gonna if those trees were sold to paper factory in the neighborhood, having a big manufacturing unit there and owning that vast area of land, as Krishna was documenting the above with her help.
" you could have said all this to the directors sir. They would have been more than pleased" she gave her opinion..
" they would have instantly refused this"
"why? I mean how can they even after knowing these?"
" among the five directors here, few are in opinion to buy an already running unit. Though may be a little costlier, the hassles of setting it up plus the immediate profits are a plus"
" hmm..that sounds sensible and right too"
Smiling at her, " few will want to start anything from scratch. Not that that it can be designed to suit their needs, with proper planning lot of cost cutting can be fone.also, although a bit delayed, the returns will be bigger"
" that also seems to be nice. But wer do u,.hmm..I guess..you belong to the second category. Then why don't u make it clear, who can tell anything against you?"
Looking at her intently and with a smile, " they would hav been thinking something else and when I force them to accept my decision, all fingers will be pointing at me even for a small and a silly issue. So, let's wait for them to Coe back for the right decision."
"how?" Pratigya was pondering over his knack of doing business. Though he appeared flexible, he was confident about getting things done in his way, with full cooperation of others.
" first confusing them about wats right n wrong, appear to refuse, then pointing out the drawbacks,get things done!" he smiled.
Ohh..did he use same trick to patofy my sister..Che! Pratigya got lost in her thoughts. Otherwise how could he easily made Arushi accept to this indecent and disrespectful deal. Am confused now..is he planning to fish smth out of my confused mind. God! Save me!
"having an office here has a lot of advantages., plus the value of this land surely goons soar high" Krishna went on saying but Pratigya min was wandering.
Realizing she hasn't noted down what he said last," pardon sir, I missed you" she said.
Keeping aside the laptop from her lap, he asked, " wats the matter?"
Can she ask him how he trapped her sister? So she just lowered her lashes and looked into the floor.
" look, Pratigya! Did u feel I disturbed you in anyway, looks, talks, brhaviour"
She nodded her left to right, meaning no.
" but you are the one who invited my sister for this cheap thing"
" whattt? I invited?"
" why are you surprised? The original plan was she coming with you na!"
" ofc. But she coming with me and I taking her are two completely different things."
