Arranged Marriage pt 19

A week had gone by and all everything had gone well. Farhad kept Raghav up to date with Jay's downfall as all that was left was for him to go bankrupt. Farhad assured him that Jay would be begging for mercy at Raghav's feet in the up coming days. 

It was the family dinner on Sunday and everything was running smoothly. For once Raghvi had no drama in their lives. Even Kaku and Mansi were on their best behaviour. Raghav had to be thanked for that as he had given them a large sum to not create drama. Luckily for him, Kaku and her greed instantly agreed. It was a fun night filled with so much laughter. Pallavi's mood was instantly better by spending time with everyone. Raghav was so thankful that nothing bad had happened to ruin his wife's mood. 

Unfortunately for him, he had spoken a bit too soon. Pallavi looked across the table and saw Vijay Deshmukh's glum face. Pallavi being Pallavi, she put her differences aside and asked him what's wrong. 

Raghav Knew something was going to happen as soon as Vijay took a deep breath.

Vijay snickered, "I'll tell you what's wrong, I want a business contract under my name in Raghav's company." 

the whole table gasped. Except for Raghav. All he could think about was that this entire family is so Greedy. 

"Baba what are you even saying? Raghav gave you so much money when him and i got married, was that not enough?" Pallavi said shocked.

" no it was not. Why do you get to live a luxurious life and I have to suffer? I had a business as well, but you could not manage it. So it is my right to be part of Raghav's company and have my own contract." Vijay said scoffing. 

Pallavi looked at Raghav's face and saw no sign of emotion. 

"Raghav will not give you anything. He's given you more than enough already. it's not my fault you don't know how to manage your money." Pallavi said sternly, highly disappointed at the man she once considered as her own father.

Sharda and Miland tried to talk vijay out of it. But it was no use. 

"Fine, Farhad will bring the contract right over." Raghav said calmly.

"Raghav what are you-

Pallavi was cut off by him. "its fine, no big deal. He is my father-in-law its the least I can do if he wants money I'll give him money." he said with a slight smirk

"see, how hard was that? Pallavi you shouldn't  barge yourself into business talks, you know nothing about business, you couldn't even run my Saree shop." Vijay said harshly.

" My dear father in law. I suggest you to keep your mouth shut. If it weren't for Pallavi, your lousy shop would not even be standing at the moment. At least appreciate  what Pallavi has done for you and your shop. Tell me, what have you done to save your shop huh? Better yet let me tell you instead. All you did was sit on your ass and expect my wife to do your work for you. She has more business skills than you will ever have in your life. So think twice before talking to my wife in such a disrespectful manner. The only reason I'm even giving you this business deal is because of what you mean to Pallavi. But I swear to god, think about disrespecting her again and I will just as easily end the contract leaving you no where." Raghav said bluntly.

"Are you threatening me?" Vijay asked.

"no I'm not, this is me letting you know to treat my wife with respect. Now sign the bloody contract and I expect to see you at the office 7am sharp." Raghav said handing him the contract from Farhad's hand.

Vijay signed it clearly embarrassed.

"It gotten pretty late, thank you for the dinner we will leave now." Pallavi said sweetly.
