Justify It!
10.30 pm on the clock, and Nikhil opened the door to the presidential suite which was booked for him.
After the stressful day, and eventful evening, he was tired, also in a bad mood after the evening incident!
It took him so much to convince Ms. Parna Sen!
For the first time he was questioned tonight!
That woman was hellbent on breaking the contract with Rangoli after witnessing the evening incident, but after the long discussion, she decided to stay back!
The first time someone questioned his integrity, and the first time someone dared to put a condition in front of him!
However, his bad mood turned worse as he entered inside the bedroom, brows raised up in dismissal after watching the scented candles, and rose petals everywhere.
A beautiful set up of candlelight dinner also could be seen on the balcony of his suite, which made him extremely annoyed, "What the fu—"
"You're finally back, babe!" A pair of soft hands encircled his waist, and rested over his chest, stopping him midway!
The sweet and sultry tone of the woman made him release a sigh!
"What is all this, and what are you doing here?" The question was stern, and direct, which made the woman retract her hands back slowly.
She walked forward and stood before the man with a sultry smile, "Surprise for you, my love! How's it?"
"As you are so busy currently, and have no time to go out, I thought we should spend some time together, so just planned it! Say, how's everything, do you like it?" Aisha revealed her false reasons behind all the arrangements with the sweetest smile and excitement.
Although she failed in her plans before, but tonight she planned everything perfectly, there's no failure tonight!
Nikhil didn't say anything and just stared at the woman standing in front of him in a black sleeveless bodycon middie dress.
She was looking gorgeous, and also happy, but tonight he was not in the mood to entertain her!
With a tired sigh, he just turned back, and walked over towards the washroom, "Go to your room, it's late & am tired, we will talk tomorrow!"
For a minute Aisha didn't say a word, as she was shocked with his words!
Did he just refused me?
Is it a joke?
No!
.... How could he, this is me, Aisha Devroy!
Tonight she was not ready to listen to him, so many things are depending onto it!
This time she's not gonna fail, if she has to get the thing, then she have to convince him anyway!
Aisha shook her head in clear disbelief, "What? Are you serious?! Nick, I'm Aisha, your fiance!!!"
"My memory is intact, Aisha!" Nikhil looked up at her after throwing his suit jacket onto the bed, then gestured towards the door to the room, "I said I am tired, now will you please excuse me?"
Aisha stood rooted with the emotionless stern voice tone and the rude words of her man!
She was out of words!
Is he really Nikhil Singharoy?
What happened to him suddenly, why is he behaving so differently!
Forget it, what it has to do with me!
I just have to convince him to dine with me, and that's it!
I know what to do, he just has to dine with me!
With the thought in her mind, she refused to leave, and just ran towards him!
Clutching his hand, she spoke while keeping her voice soft yet demanding, "O common Nick, you can't do this to me! I have been waiting for you since evening, at least, let's have dinner together!"
"I already had my dinner!" Nikhil moved away from her, and replied calmly.
Ting!
The small sound, and his phone screen lit up, there was a message from Parna Sen!
His eyes were fixated onto his phone screen, so he failed to notice the shock in his fiance's eyes!
Aisha failed to even respond, as she felt like she heard it wrong, "Huuuh?!"
"You're kidding, right?"
Nikhil shook his head again, and replied properly, "No, I'm not! I went to visit Ms. Sen earlier, and had dinner with her!"
"With whom?!" Aisha felt she again heard it wrong, and just stared at the man in bewilderment, "You met whom?!"
"Parna Sen, the new face of Rangoli!" He replied in a straight forward manner.
"You two had dinner together?!" Aisha questioned again, with fireballs in her eyes!
However, he ignored it, and nodded curtly, "Yeah!"
The confirmation made Aisha stand frozen!
It seemed like someone slapped her without even touching her!
The fire inside her lit up again, and this time with double force after watching the ignorant attitude of her man, "Wow, I was waiting here for you for the entire evening, and you went to meet 'her?!'
I told you to return soon, but you returned so late, that's also after having dinner with her?!
Now she's that important than me?! Is this how you're gonna behave with me?!"
Aisha clenched and unclenched her fist to stop herself from bursting out, but it didn't help her!
The fire inside her was bubbling up, and was ready to burst out!
Nikhil put his phone onto the nightstand before looking up towards his fiance!
She was hurt, but it didn't faze him tonight, "Aisha, stop this childishness, and go, take some rest!"
"Ohhh, you want me to take rest, huuh? Why? So that you can go to that woman?!" Aisha mocked him angrily, resulting in Nikhil to look at her in bewilderment, "Aisha! What the hell are you saying even, huuh?!"
However, the woman was too mad to stop, and continued to throw allegations on him, "What I'm saying is the truth! Here I was waiting for you for the entire evening, but you just left to dine with someone else?!
Tell me, are you interested in her? Is this the reason why you made her the face of Rangoli?!"
"Stop it, Aisha! Now you're crossing your limit!" Nikhil warned him with clenched fist, he was already displeased with her, but after listening to her nasty allegations, he was truly angry!
Anyways, instead of stopping, Aisha turned more agitated, and shouted, "You've crossed yours already! Tell me, do you like her? Are you two in a relationship already? That slut, how dare she?! I'll kill her!
Did she slept with you? Ohh, she offered herself to you, right? Is she that beautifu—"
Slap!!
The sound of the slap resonated inside the room, five fingers were imprinted onto her left cheek!
The impact of the slap was much more than the one that Mugdha received from Aisha earlier, it made her fell down onto the floor holding her cheek!
The slap brought her back to reality, and made her look at the man with pure shock!
The man who never even held her hand ruffly, slapped him so mercilessly tonight?!
"...You slapped me?!" She asked in a tone full of disbelief!
However, Nikhil ignored the tears and blood, and spoke out sternly, "Stop spouting nonsense! Now, you have gone too far, Ms. Devroy!
I know very well about why you are doing all this, but let me tell you very clearly, Parna Sen is going to be the new face of Rangoli, and it's my final decision!"
"How could you?! You don't love me anymor—"
"Do you love me? Tell me the truth, are you sure that you really love me?!" Nikhil questioned back, there was no warmth in his voice anymore, his eyes were full of suspicion!
He threw her a stern and suspicious look while continuing further, "Since the day I've decided to sign contract with Ms. Sen, your attitude has changed rapidly! Why?! Answer me!"
Aisha felt goosebumps on his skin, and shivered unknowingly!
Her throat ran dry with the question & the suspicion in Nikhil's eyes, she have to do something quickly!
But what to do, how to save myself!
After a few minutes, she looked up in the eyes which were fixated onto her, and spoke hurtfully, ".....Are you trying to say that I'm use..... using your name, and fame....?! Mr. Nikhil Singharoy, are you trying to brand me as a gold digger.....?!"
However, Nikhil didn't fall into her trap, and without any words, he showed her something on his phone, "If not, then justify it!"
