Chapter 9 - Her Confidence

"First, listen to me properly bro!" Jai said trailing behind Rudra like a lost puppy as Rudra didn't want to hear him more as he could sense what Jai was planning!

"I told you already! No means no! So don't waste yours and my time!" Rudra replied coldly while entering his cabin and Jai followed him there too.

"Why no?" Jai scowled at him.

"Because I am not a babysitter or precisely speaking, not an adult sitter!" Rudra said rubbing his temple, dismissing the discussion but Jai raised it again.

"What's wrong in becoming one?" Jai asked, laughing.

"First of all, you know who I am, still you are saying this! If my enemies see her with me then they will have wrong intentions and their target will be her. Because of me, she will be in trouble and I don't want that." Rudra said calmly, trying to make him understand.

"Are you scared?" Jai asked, smirking, making Rudra scowl at him.

"I don't fear anyone, everyone fears me! " Rudra said sternly, banging his fist on the table.

"But your words are saying something else to me! Even if she gets into a problem because of you, are you trying to say that you won't be able to protect her from your enemies?" Jai asked, igniting the fire in him and his smirk grew wider as his plan was working.

Rudra closed his eyes and his knuckles turned harder as he fisted his hands more tightly.

"Tell me, will you be able to protect her or little Rudra will get scared?" Jai asked, mocking him, not getting scared even a bit of him.

"Okay, fine. Damn it." Rudra burst out getting out of patience as Jai was poking his dark side to come out and he finally agreed to him, making Jai smile peacefully.

"But behave nicely with her. She is in this condition because of you so take care of her until she is fit and fine!" Jai instructed him, patting his shoulder.

"What if she attacks me when her personality changes?" Rudra asked, thinking about her weird behaviour.

"Come on, it's not like she is going to kill you! I know you can handle her, that's why I am trusting you with her!" Jai gave him a cheeky smile which irritated him more and he got up from his seat.

"Where are you going?" Jai asked, seeing him getting out of the cabin.

"At least, let me use the washroom peacefully!" Rudra shouted as he was already annoyed by him and Jai chuckled at hearing him.

Neha got out of the cab and stood in front of the tall building which was screaming it's richness. She took off her black sunglasses and looked at the building with a proud smile.

A few people who were passing by her looked at her head to toe. Men were looking at her lustfully and women were looking at her with jealousy as she has the perfect body shape a woman desires.

She was looking like a nymph in that strapless knee-length red dress. Her beautiful long hair was flowing in the air, making her look more enchanting.

Her head and right hand were bandaged and only she knows how much she fought with Piya to start working on the plan instantly! Neha smirked looking at the people around her who were gawking at her but suddenly her smile fell as the scorching sun was shining on her head which started making her feel dizzy suddenly.

She shook her head to calm down her senses and blinked her eyes, trying to steady her mind to make the dizziness go away. After feeling good a little bit, she pushed her hair back with attitude and walked inside the building like the elegant woman she is!

Everyone started looking at her like she is some kind of model and they couldn't even move their gaze from her. She was about to pass by the receptionist and enter the elevator but stopped when the receptionist called her.

"Miss, who are you? Whom do you want to meet?" The lady asked, scanning her through her eyes.

Neha growled in her mind as she didn't like to be interrupted when she was doing some important work. She turned around to look at the receptionist with a fake sweet smile.

"Mind your own business and do your work. Don't you dare stop me again?" She stated seething in anger and looked at that lady with her scary eyes.

"Miss, I am minding my business. You have to let me know why you are here because that's my job!" The lady replied firmly, not getting scared by her angry demeanour.

"Okay, since you are so eager to know who I am, I will let you know. I am Rudra's fiance and I am here to meet him. FYI, I don't need anyone's permission to meet him so if you excuse me or not, I don't have time to waste on you!" Neha replied rudely but while smiling sweetly.

Everyone got shocked as she introduced herself as Rudra's fiancee. Everyone used to think that Rudra is gay as he is never spotted with any woman.

Women die to get attention from him but he never spared a single glance towards them. Though everyone was shocked by the information, they won't believe it until Rudra himself declares it.

"Miss, you can't meet Sir if you don't have an appointment!" The receptionist stated coldly and Neha wanted to choke her at that moment but controlled her anger.

"Fine! Inform him that Neha has come to meet him and if he comes down here to meet me as I am very special to him then you will apologize to me because of your misbehaviour but if he doesn't and tells me to go meet him in his cabin or worse tells me to go away, then I will apologize to you!" Neha told her with so confidence like she was fucking sure when she wasn't.

"I don't know about you but as much as I know Sir, he will never show interest in a girl like you." The receptionist told smirking with confidence like she was fucking sure and she really was sure about it.

The receptionist quickly tapped on the telephone and Rishabh picked up the call as Rudra was busy in a very important meeting with their American clients. Rishabh was in Rudra's cabin to fetch some documents which were required for the meeting and was about to leave but stopped when the telephone started ringing.

"Hello, Sir." The receptionist spoke after Rishabh received the call.

"It's Rishabh speaking, Sir is in a meeting!" He said.

"Yes, Rishabh Sir. I wanted to inform Sir that there is a girl named Neha who has come to meet with Sir so please inform him about this." The receptionist spoke while smirking at Neha who was fuming silently.

"Oh okay, I will let him know. Till then look after her." Rishabh said this as he is slightly aware of Rudra's interest in Neha as he was behaving weirdly since he met her.

He disconnected the call and the receptionist frowned hearing his words.

Look after her? Why the special treatment for her? Who is she to Rudra? The receptionist thought glaring at Neha who was losing patience every second.

Rudra, if you don't come then no one can save you from my wrath, Neha thought fuming in anger as her belief in him was at stake and she was sure that if he is the same stranger she met then he will definitely come to her, no matter how innocent he tries to act!
