Arjun opened the office room's door to Anika and her smile vanished seeing him welcoming her with a frown, she sat nervously to the chair opposite to the desk and looked at his frown with wide eyes for a moment then with a nervous smile that vanished when he approached her angrily and she gasped and hid her face with her wrist, he stood shocked.

Anika: Grandpa!! calm down, I know I must did something wrong, I will be surprise If I am innocent here and this is a misunderstanding, but for my defense you knew what you were getting in to when you asked me to play this game with you, so just take a deep breath and exhale it, it helps Gulabu.

Arjun's eyes widened: what are you saying? I was not going to hit you, not because you don't deserve but because I never hit a girl before and you won't be the one makes me start.

Anika frowned: you grabbed my mother's hair though, she told me later when I knew you are my Grandfather, which is violence against a weaker female too (then she frowned more) your daughter or not, you lost your temper and regret it or not, I don't care, it is as bad.

Arjun eyes widened then groaned in anger and Anika shield herself with her other wrist too; Arjun just sat then bent his head back and took a deep breath then exhale it.

Anika smiled widely: it is working, right?!!

Arjun frowned to her and her smile vanished as the door knocked

Arjun: Come in

Francine entered and Shivaay behind her, Anika didn't know what to feel about it, it doesn't look good that her Grandfather is that angry and called Shivaay too but in the same time Shivaay being in front of her is always feels good, especially that she is not letting them be in one place since the wooden house incident with Soumya and Rudra.

Francine: Prince? I brought Gulab the Gardener as per your orders, may I ask if he did something wrong?

Arjun: you may Francine, the gardener did nothing wrong, the last daughter told me about the incident in his house that the Singh Oberoi was involved in and I want to ask him myself about what happened and see if he was mistreated from you or anyone before his innocence revealed?

Francine swallowed and nodded then looked at Shivaay smirk to her then got out angrily and closed the door behind her.

Anika: oh that is so sweet, Grandpa

Shivaay: I don't think that is really the reason kitty, well at least not the part that I am an innocent

Arjun: I never doubted you are smart, Gulab, sit in front of the Princess.

Shivaay pulled a chair in front of Anika and smiled widely to her, his eyes was filled with longing that Anika ignored to acknowledge.

Arjun: because I know you are both not innocent, the minute I heard about the story I knew that my Granddaughter will be the girl wears a wig and think she is invisible.

Anika frowned: why it has to be my idea, why couldn't it be his idea?

And she signaled on Shivaay who looked at her finger shocked then looked at Arjun who raised an eyebrow

Arjun: you want to convince me it is not your idea?

Anika: no it is mine (then she frowned) but for my defense if it wasn't for Hariom it would have worked

And she leaned back on her chair with a frown as Arjun raised an eyebrow then leaned towards Shivaay.

Arjun in low tone: just so I won't embarrass myself, tell me who is Hariom? Is he a servant here? I don't know most of their names.
