Unexpected Future!

Chapter 4

"That's all? I expected something like that knowing your father being a worse rival to Nakul's father. You are worried about this? Then you are stressing yourself. Because Nakul is also marrying for the business only." He said, waving off and I stared at him.

"For business? Does anyone know that marriage is not all that? One does it for revenge and one for business. God! Children games are fairer than the games adults playing with each other." Saying that I walked away fuming.

"Wait! What do you mean by revenge?" his voice followed me, but I ignored him and lifted my hand seeing a taxi.

"Tell me!" he demanded, standing beside me and I turned to stare at him.

I was about to say 'get lost!' but then remembered the extent of Di's plan. It is not just about marrying someone anticipating some benefit, but it is anticipating someone's destroy.

"I can't say it openly." I said and he frowned, but nodded before looking around.

"Look, there is no one in the park." He said and I followed him returning to the same bench knowing there is no other such private place where I can explain.

"First promise me you will not hurt my family." I started and he gave an irritated look.

"I already signed didn't I?" he asked and I nodded, but waited for the words which he said finally.

"My Di and Father want to take revenge on Nakul not because of the rivalry. But because of personal issues." I started and he gave a confused look.

"They want to take his business away and make him penniless and also something else which I don't know, but not killing." I added in the end.

"Don't worry about making him penniless because I am sure he will get a pre-nup. He made it a rule for even board of directors to always have a pre-nup to not have any problems." He explained and I sighed in relief.

"But what personal problem do they have?" he continued and I felt a little awkward to explain.

"There has been an accident fourteen years back in which a lady Maheshwari Guptha died and it was caused by Nakul. Di wants to take revenge for her mother's death." I replied and he gave a shocked look.

"What? Do you hear yourself? We met your Mother when we were at your home." He said and stood up.

"She is my mother, but not Di's." I explained.

"Then why are you named after her?" he asked frowning.

"Well, my parents and Di's were best friends. So, my Mom named me after her best friend." I replied and he nodded.

"Do you know Nakul would have been a fourteen year old boy at that time? Why do you all think he did it and why was he not punished?" he asked and I sighed.

"I don't know! But all I know is his father made sure he is saved. From that time my father is wishing for justice, but I thought everything was settled. However, yesterday when I heard their conversation I can see it is nowhere near over." I replied.

"So, you are Miss guptha's step sister?" he asked and I nodded, feeling irritated hearing such silly question.

"Yes! My Mom got married to him after the accident." I replied and he nodded before looking somewhere with a far away look.

"Can you stop the wedding?" I asked and he shook his head.

"I have to tell Nakul." He said and I immediately held his hand before he can move and stood up.

"Are you mad? He will destroy my family." I said, glaring at him.

"He will not." He said in an assuring tone.
