Chapter 4

Tanet gets ready and comes down to have his breakfast.

Tanet: Korn

Korn: Yes Sir

Tanet: How is your mother?

Korn: She is recovering well.

Tanet: Good. Do you need any help?

Korn: No Sir

Tanet: Hmm. Take good care of her. If required you can take a few days off.

Korn: Thank you, Sir.

Tanet finished his breakfast and walked out of his house. As he walked to the parking lot, he saw Veera standing there leaning on the car and scrolling through his phone.

Tanet: ahem ahem

Veera stands up straight and looks at Tanet with a smile.

Veera: Goodmorning Sir

Tanet: Goodmorning Mr.Li.

Veera: It's Veera Sir. Everyone calls my dad Mr.Li.

Tanet: Hmm. Okay. Let's go now.

Tanet gets into the car and quickly puts on the seatbelt. He looks to his side and saw Veera looking at him with a small smile on his face.

Tanet: What?

Veera: Nothing Sir

Veera starts the car and leaves for their office.At the office, Tanet gets out of the car and informs Veera that he is not required until the closing hours as he will be working from the office and there is no threat in the office. Veera agrees and asks him to call him if required.

Once Tanit gets into the elevator,Veera leaves the car in the parking lot and calls someone. Soon a person in a black suit and helmet arrives on a bike and stops before Veera. The person removes his helmet to reveal Kla's face.

Kla: Hey

Veera just nods his head.

Veera: Did you get the information?

Kla: Hmm. Here you have all the information you are looking for.Kla hands over the file that was marked confidential. Veera looks through the file with a serious expression on his face.

Veera: What is the progress on our new command center?

Kla: It's almost done. IT guys are working on the systems right now.

Veera: Hmm

Kla: How serious is it?

Veera: Very. They are not just trying to sabotage the business but they want him dead.

Kla: But none of the previous attacks were lethal.

Veera: That's a false report. I have gone through the video footage and other evidence. It has been tampered with. I am sure someone influential is behind the whole incident.

Kla: Hmm. What about others? Do they need security too?

Veera: I am not sure. But I cannot take a risk. One of them is my soon-to-be bro-in-law while the other is my best friend's love interest.

Veera looks at Kla with a smirk.

Kla: Ho...How..did you know?

Veera: I have eyes. I have never seen you so focused on anything as you were focused on him.

Kla: Hmm. I like him but I don't think he will ever be interested in me.

Veera: He is a nice guy Kla. Just a little bit shy. Give him time. He will come around.
