Fitoor

Chapter 39

Abir Bharadwaj

"Finally she realised. Ki tum uske layak nahi ho. Now I can rest peacefully." Agilan's irritating voice made me fist my palm more tightly. I didn't need time to think what would happen to my existing branch. All of the investors would be terminated without a second thought. And Kunal could start another venture with my help again.

But the main thought that swirled around my head despite all these interventions was Mishti. The words that I spoke to her, if I had a second chance, I'd take it all back. But she was the one who instigated me. I knew she was disturbed because of that small kid, dying because of an inevitable disease. It wasn't her first time, to see someone die in her arms. She was a doctor. But it defenitely shook her.

Instead of dealing it like an adult, even I gave into that childish instinct and fought with her. God! What must she be feeling now!
"Abir?" Vijay uncle's voice startled me.
"Mujhe pata hai Mishti ko aise baat nahi karna chahiye tha. Lekin tumhare insults use sirf insults nahi, balki kaatein banke chub rahe honge. Jab hum kisi se pyaar karte hai to aise hazaar arguments hote rahenge. Par hume kabhi bhi give up nahi karna chahiye." He explained.

"Kisne bola ki mai give up kar raha hu?" I smiled as I called Maanav.
"Maanav, tumhare paas das minute hai. Mere saare shareholders ke accounts bhej raha hu. Sabka balance zero aana chahiye." I said, my tone more lethal than any time.
"Okay par paise kaha transfer karu?" He asked confused.
"Kite corporations." I smirked and cut the call.

Immediately taking out my phone, I called the last person I wanted to talk to. But I needed him now. Couldn't help.
"Hey Abir! Kaisa hai bro?" His Bengali accent was way too thick and recognisable.
"Dev, greetings aside. Mujhe ek favour chahiye. Mishti ko batana mat." I warned beforehand. When Mishti had mentioned that he had a travel agency, I dug deep doubting him. Then I got to know, he was a professional cyber hacker.

"Woah! Kya hua Abir babu?" He was serious now.
"Mai teen chaar videos bhej raha hu. Usko edit karna hai." I said.
"Kya hai usme?" Dev queried.
"Proof." I sighed and forwarded him the media files.
"Yaha kya kar rahe ho Anna?" Pranav came near me, confused as well as concerned.
"Yaad hai chotu, jab tu mujhe aur Mishti ko tease kar raha tha?" I questioned.

"Tune bola tha na, ki mere aur tumhare bhabhi ke liye kuch bhi karoge?" He nodded vigorously.
"Time aagaya hai usko prove karne ke liye." Pranav's single smile was enough that he'd do what he was told. I explained him the plan and entered into the hall where all of them were assembled.
"Chali gayi na bechari. Maine pehle hi warn kiya tha." Sindhu smirked.

"Haa. Mujhe bhi pehle hi realise karna tha. But don't worry. Abhi der nahi hua hai." I smiled, as Sindhu Vardhan's face paled with confusion.
"Pagal hogaya hai aapka beta." Agilan remarked to Appa.
"Appa, you had said to me once to keep my enemies closer than my friends. Aur jab time aayega, to unko pata chalega ki Abir Bharadwaj se compete karenge to kya hoga." I put my hands in my pocket.

"Ab jitna bhi try karo Abir, tum case zaroor haaroge. Kyunki Kite corporations aur usme invest kiye hue paise tumhare sabse solid proof the. Par ab tumhare paas kuch nahi bacha hai." Sindhu Vardhan said.
"Hai. Living proof hai." I smirked as she understood what I meant.
"No! Uska voice koi consider nahi karega." She shouted.
"Aunty, aap batayiye." I turned towards Nitya aunty.

"Kya Rishi Vardhan ke bhai, witness nahi ban sakta?" I questioned. My smile grew ten folds as Nitya aunty's eyes gleamed with hope.
"He can be! Agar hum uske allegations ko false prove kar sakte hai to uska remand bhi khatam hojayega." Aunty exclaimed.
"Par kaise?" Kunal asked faintly.
"Aapka chota beta haina." Pranav's voice said. Ugh! I asked him for help! God's must be crazy.

"Lo tumhare files." He handed me the bag. I knew that in the last moment, something would turn out wrong. So I kept all these extra proofs with myself, since I couldn't trust anyone. If only she were here to see.
"Isme PRIDE files hai jo maine aur Mishti ne Kunal ke company se liya tha. Saare proofs hai ki Sindhu and Sahana were the one responsible for Yashas Vardhan's arrest. Varun Singh wasn't a fool to leave without any support for us." I smiled nodding at Kuhu who had tears in her eyes.

Suddenly, their phones started buzzing as another satisfactory smirk made it's way to my face. Dev had done his work.
"Kholo. Check karlo apne messages." I smiled looking at their horrified faces.
"Kunal beta! I'm your dad." Rishi Vardhan's pleading voice didn't shake Kunal.
"Haa, dad hai aap. Lekin kabhi Papa nahi ban sakte." His stoic reply confirmed Rishi's worst fears. They were going to jail for a lifetime.

"It was our deal ki aapke issues me mujhe involve nahi karenge Mrs.Vardhan!" Agilan screamed like a little girl. Honestly, all the anger bubbled up inside me came rising at a moment. Vijay uncle noticed this and therefore, held my hand to stop me. I looked down and closed my eyes to control myself.
"Pathetic." I muttered.
"No Agilan! We'll deal with this." Sindhu tried to convince him but I knew what was going to happen. I eyed at Pranav as he nodded and immediately left the room.

He set up the screens with my laptop connected to the projector.
"Ye kya hai phir!" He shouted as the screen displayed a video of him raping a girl. Their phones and laptops, completely connected to AI made it more easier to hack. Their mail ID's are enough to destroy they whole lives! From their search engines, to their last night's meal, everything was available there. Dev had to just press the right switches.

"You fuc-"
"Don't you dare Sindhu!" Nitya aunty's voice boomed as Sindhu Vardhan was about to curse me. I felt happy that aunty was there to defend me. Suddenly the video was about Sindhu Vardhan and Sahana Singh, intoxicating kids with Cocaine and shifting them to a van. Then it was Rishi Vardhan playing illegal poker in an illegal restrobar.

"Ye kaafi hai ya aur dikhau?" I mocked.
"Kunal! Kuch karo!" She pleaded her son.
"Mom, have a nice stay in jail." Kunal smiled.
"Aapke wajah se ek bacchi apne jaan kho liya. Uske liye aapko mai kabhi maaf nahi karunga." He said.
"Mere bhabhi, Mishti aur mere bhai Abir ke beech aapne misunderstanding laaya mom. Ab mai usko theek karunga." Kunal removed his turban and jaimala.

"Mai bhi aarahi hu Kunal. Meri bestfriend mere liye wait kar rahi hogi." Kuhu smiled.
The police arrived at the same moment and we saw them arrested for their crimes.
"I'm sorry Kuhu." Kuhu's mother said. Sindhu's glare, agilan's struggles and Rishi's bent head proved that justice was served. I released a long sigh. I took out the ring and caressed it. Immediately I had to go to the place that would allow me some peace.
"Kaha jaa rahe ho?" Kunal urgently asked.

"Jaha mai usse pehli baar mila tha."
