Rudra sat in the swiveling black chair with his legs crossed and flipping the ongoing construction report of the hotel. The pin-drop silence in the study room was replaced by his boots clicking. His sloe eyes pin down the financial details. The brim of his lips gave a derisive curve.
"Thanks to all the delays and ruckus from the builder, Harish, the deal was going nowhere." Rudra noticed when an offensive look emerged in his obsidian-brown eyes. "At this rate, the hotel is going to create a huge loss if I didn't do something," He decided while an evil aura danced around him.Rudra slammed the glossy white table with disdain, and the files lying on it turned upside down. He stood up in a swift moment by racking his hair and leaned on the wood color designed wall when Tamaz sped to his room. "Hey, Bro! What's wrong with you in the dawn?" Tamaz asked in an abnormal breath with a shout.Rudra glanced at him with unreadable eyes without speaking a word. "What were you trying to decipher?" Tamaz raised his curiosity with a narrow squint. Rudra adjusted his cufflinks, "Deal with Harish Asap. I won't tolerate his nonsense anymore." He said in a flat voice. Tamaz nodded with a wink.With that, Tamaz went into the kitchen and brewed a black coffee. "Hm... This aroma helps me relieve my stress!" He exclaimed while brainstorming. By the time, he finished sipping his coffee, "I guess it's better to make a deal with the builder."Tamaz drifted his palm into his pocket to grab his mobile. To his surprise, he didn't find it. "Shit! Where did I keep my mobile last night?" He groaned while brushing his temples and strode to the living room. "Here you are?" Tamaz tapped his head with ease.Gripping the mobile, he dialed Harish. After about three rings, "Hi, Harish.""Hi, Mr. Tamaz. May I know why you called me this early?" Harish lifted while rubbing his eyes."Yes, Let's have a meeting today?" Tamaz added gruffly.A mocking smile danced on Harish's lips hearing that. "You want to negotiate with me now? Interesting," he thought while his drowsiness vanished."Sure. At what time?""How about 12:30 PM at The Oberoi hotel?" Tamaz suggested while his brows raised."That's okay with me.""Okay."Tamaz twirled his mobile with running thoughts, "I need to make sure to succeed in convincing him."He strolled to the beautiful garden, watching the golden rays of the sun give a bright color to the clouds, "I know how meticulously Rudra designed the plan of this Seven-star hotel 'IRC Atlantis'. He wanted it to be a perfect luxurious shot.""We worked our ass-off on this. Yet, Harish has tried to cause trouble? Did he grow his balls?""I see his work for the past four years. He is well acquainted with The Chauhan Group of Companies. He even built many constructions in collaboration with us. What made him behave like a problematic person now?" Tamaz messed his hair in annoyance....Tamaz wore a beige suit paired with a white shirt and a red tie. With perfectly gelled hair, the costume highlighted his tall figure and brawny muscles. The handsome charm engulfed him. His grey eyes landed on his Rolex oyster steel watch.Almost 11:00 AM. He hopped into his Audi Cabriolet and stepped off. At around noon, Tamaz arrived at The Oberoi, to meet Harish. He ambled into the private room, and Harish was already present. His eyes opened wide in surprise because their meeting wasn't until 12:30 PM. Even thirty minutes early and Harish was already waiting for him. He didn't understand but faked a smile.Tamaz extended his hand to Harish, and he politely responded. His pupils narrowed with a piercing glare. The waiter quickly came in, they gave their orders. Over lunch, they discussed the details related to the hotel construction."How is it going on with the new construction?" Tamaz questioned airily.Hearing that, Harish paused, and gazed at Tamaz, "What's there to tell? You knew how it is happening." Harish gave a smug look and began eating."Huh! I need to know what's really behind this before I can make a deal." Tamaz thought and remained silent for a few minutes.Tamaz raised his head, "You are claiming that it doesn't accommodate the law? But the legalities were done properly before handing the construction to you.""I know about the construction rules. If I said it's wrong, then it's wrong.""You mean we didn't know them?" Tamaz asked in a gruff tone."I never said that. Why did you think like that? Maybe in your view, it's true?" Harish mocked.Tamaz clenched in fists, "what the hell is going on with him? We've worked together for years. Something is wrong. Only Rudra can deal with this." After some thought, Tamaz tried to give it one more shot."We already sent you the base payment related of fifty crores, the rest will be given after checking the process. If you want a little more than that, we're willing. Don't make the wrong choice now."Harish blew him off, acting like he owned the world."You don't know how Rudra will deal with you if you don't agree with me now." Tamaz made him wishy-washy. Still, Harish didn't listen.His eyes shot daggers, "Don't mess up with Mr. Ishan Rudra Chauhan. Be careful, or be ready to face the consequences." Tamaz declared furiously. Storming out of the room, he quickly paid the bill and returned to the office. Knocking on Rudra's office door, Tamaz was in luck, Rudra was in."Rudra, I tried talking with him, but he's not willing to listen. He has some backing support now, it's the only reason he'd act like this. You need to deal with him your way now." Tamaz intimated and took his leave."Harish!" Rudra asserted in a dark tone. "You aren't worthy of the chance then. Fine with me." He ridiculed Harish's guts. "I knew how to make things work." With that, his slender fingers pressed the bell.In an instant, a knock came by. "Come in," Rudra said while rolling his eyes at the collaboration documents from The Magenta Builders."Boss!""Get me the latest report on Harish," Rudra said without eyeing Maahir while his gaze focused on the files.Maahir instantly responded, "Okay.""I want it by the end of today." Rudra added in his authoritative tone and Maahir nodded. Seeing Maahir still standing there, Rudra's gaze narrowed and queried with his brows furrowed, "Anything else?""Regarding the collaboration with Umbro technologies, their team was here for a presentation."The name felt so familiar and Rudra was in his thoughts for a second, and asked while twirling the pen in his hands, "At what time is it?""In an hour, sir."Hearing that, he rubbed his temples and with a sigh, he questioned, "Did they take my appointment?""Yes, sir.""I've to attend another meeting at that time. Get the Software department head to attend on my behalf.""But... your presence is needed to sign off the project," Maahir added in a hurry.Glancing at Maahir, Rudra shook his head and said in his stern tone, "Forward me the presentation. I'll check it, then send it to them." Maahir nodded and left....It's the first time Tanvi stepped into the Chauhan Group of Companies. Looking at the giant office, filled corridors, hurried people, she couldn't help but admire.She remembered her manager's words, "Tanvi, I've expectations on this deal as well as on you. We must get it at any cost, and I'm sure only you can do that."With her daze, her team-mate patted her when Maahir approached them. Maahir stopped dread in tracks by her presence. Soon, he composed himself and decided to pretend like it's the first time he had seen her."You are here for a presentation, Miss...?""Yes. I'm Tanvi Siara Agarwal." She said with her shoulders back and head held high.Maahir nodded, "Please come this way."Nihar and Tanvi started walking on the white marble floor. On their way, a tall figure with a cold-look, flawless skin in the warm-ivory shade, chiseled jaw, dressed in a black suit with perfectly styled hair followed by a bunch of subordinates crossed her path. A uniq
Tanvi finished with work at around 05:30 PM. On the way to her home, she wondered, "Did I make it? What'll Mr. Rudra decide?" She tucked her hair behind her ears, "There's nothing I can do on that. Why waste my time?"With that, she began surfing through her mobile and came across a few interesting design ideas. Her eyes grew wide in anticipation with a glimmer."They are all great, but how to design the combination uniquely?" She began brainstorming by twirling her pendant with her slender fingers until she connected all the dots. A wave of relaxation washed over her."Woah!! If I made this design it would be stunningly gorgeous know?" Excitement shot through her nerves. She reached her apartment and slipped the keys off in her bewilderment. "Oops!" She tapped her forehead and twisted the doorknob.Tanvi jumped onto the couch and commenced designing the draft. Her round eyes followed the swift movements of an ink brush. Her delicate hand swung while painting endlessly.After hours of
08:00 AM. Maahir stood at the isolated location dressed in a white shirt paired up with a beige blazer with gelled onyx hair. With his tall figure, wheatish complexion, and husky muscles, he looked extremely handsome. He strode towards the door and rang the bell a few times, but no response.Peered again at the address on his mobile and looked at his watch. He clenched his fists and punched the wall, then took a deep breath. Put out his cigarette and waited for a while. "What games are you playing, Harish? Come on, open the door now." Maahir yelled.Looking at his unbothered attitude, Maahir's blood boiled with fury. Taking a deep breath, "I know that you are inside. If you didn't act accordingly now, your situation will be even worse." Maahir warned him in a threatening tone, yet Harish didn't show up. He kicked the door in frustration and stomped aside.Grabbing his mobile from the pocket, he dialed Rudra. While Rudra sat on the couch, looking through the documents of The Magenta Bu
Tanvi was in her cabin when her manager Jitender messaged her, "Come to my cabin."With a sigh, she put her work aside and muttered under her breath, "Huh!! I'm sure he'll ask about the presentation."Inhaling a chunk of air, "But.. what to say? Even I don't know the answer." She soughed and left her cabin with a pout."May I come in." She gave a slight knock and queried in her dulcet tone.Almost instantly, she heard a quick 'yes' and hesitantly strode in while a pleasing smile plastered across her face.He glanced at her, his gaze excited,"Any update?"Hearing that, she gulped and muttered, "No, Jitender. I'm waiting for them to contact me."A frown settled on him, and he questioned with a raised brow, "Can't you make the first move?""Um... I don't know whether I can directly send an email to Mr. Chauhan?" Tanvi pondered while fiddling with her fingers, "What if it's not a good thing to contact him straight?""Did you have his email?"Snapped back, "Yes, I found it. It's in the col
2nd SeptemberRudra was in his cabin, finalizing a few of the prominent documents about his upcoming dealings when a knock came by. Without lifting his head, his stern voice said, "come in.""Boss.""Hm.""Ms. Tanvi sent an email.""Okay."Maahir remained dumbfounded and frozen in place, "I thought she is important to him? Is she not?""What name did you say?" A voice caught Maahir's back."It's Ms. Tanvi, Boss."Hearing her name, Rudra paused and lifted his head with widened eyes. An amused look danced on him. "I'll look into it." Maahir nodded and left.In an instant, Rudra logged into the email and opened the one sent by Tanvi.From: tanvisiaraagarwal@umbro. comTo : president@chauhangroup. comGreetings to the President,I am Tanvi Siara Agarwal, BlockChain Project head representing on behalf of Umbro Technologies. My apologies if I had crossed my limits in emailing you, but I sincerely request you to watch th
06:00 PM. Tanvi arrived at her apartment after a hectic day. While shoving her door open, the keys jingled, and she dropped them twice before jiggling the right one into the lock. With a deep sigh, she reached her bedroom and slipped into her pajamas.Strode to her kitchen for a good coffee, while her head is aching pretty bad with the level of stress. In addition to it, "I need to meet Mr. Chauhan and Sign off the project officially.""Ah, my cup is already full with piles of work, and I should travel in between too?" She cursed herself while her coffee was ready by then. Grabbed the cup, she switched on her television and began sipping.Meanwhile, a buzzing sound banged in the living room and disturbed her peace. She screamed with annoyance and went to pick it up. It's Riaan."Hey, Tanvi.""Yes.""I'm in no mood to entertain this today. I have no energy left. I just wanted to sleep and relax." She thought when his voice snapped her back."How's your day?" Riaan noticed the discomfo
Rudra was in his office checking the design and presentation that they were working on to present with the 'Builders Dynasty,' which was a great deal he's going to associate with when her thoughts disturbed him."Her sweet voice, deep black eyes, bouncy hair, her fragrance, dazzling smile, an inevitable charm she possesses, ugh! She's bothering me." Rudra sighed when the corners of his lips curved upwards.Put his files aside, strode to the sprawling glass, and glanced at the blue sky, which was becoming grey with the clouds. "There's something in you, Tanvi, which was attracting me and driving towards you." Rudra opened her snap and stared at her intently."I know you got mesmerized by me, but still composed yourself without acting like other crazy people who threw herself at me." A proud smirk lingered on him when his eyes brightened."I'm not sure whether it's a wise decision to want you by my side or not, but your presence brings happiness to me." His forehead creased with this th
Diana05th September Inside the community at Malabar Hills, Mumbai.With a fresh breeze, the bright sun covered in greyish clouds emitting slight illuminations giving enough warmth on a calm day. A red car halted near the 50-floor skyscraper apartment. The wind from the serene sprawling beach hit his body giving chills.Glanced at the beautiful sea, his spirit uplifted. Inhaling the briny air, a tall man with built muscles hugged his clothes with a few strands of messy hair falling onto his right eye. A crafty smile plastered on his contented lips walked into the 40th story with a stack of files.The main door as wide as it was tall left ajar welcomed him with the lavish, sophisticated interior. The glossy white marble floor, decorated with designed artistic paintings that dominated the walls, every color is bold and painted with such precise lines that it almost looks like a mosaic.The walls coated in whitish-grey, perfectly placed furniture, and the beach view enveloped with the la
