under the wraps

something is fishy at Malhotra firm 2

At Malhotra firm

Hr manager: Sir we don't know anything about these murders or suicides whatever you say how would we know about them

he said while fixing his glasses with one hand and his other hand was resting on his lap, he look unshaken or unworried from all the facts that Rudra and Mohit explained to him

Rudra: but still they all used to work here after listening to the news of all suicides you must have taken some action or you must have informed the police

Rudra said stressing each and every word so that he could explain to him, how much his help mattered to them but seems like he was not interested from any angle to provide them with any kind of help

hr manager: but what was there to inform sir like you said they all used to work here i's not like they were still working here and huh I am sorry sir but I don't think we will be of any help

and showed a helpless face, with any affection or guilt towards victim who's uncertain deaths could be uncovered from his one useful statement

Rudra: ok but why did you fire them before the termination of their contract

he lay the most important card on his sleeve in front of him and stick his eyes on his face to scrutinize it to get at least something out of his expression

hr manager: we have reasons for firing everyone we didn't fir any of them without any reason

he said in a professional tone, without being flinched without changing the weather of his face

Rudra: ok then we will take our leave

Rudra gave up and now he was getting irritated from his stubbornness from answering anything for once the idea of punching him in the face also crossed his mind but he let it go

"Thanks for the information"

he finished and cover the anger on his face before he could see it

and they both leave the cabin, soon after they leave the hr manager calls someone after being sure that they leave his cabin and are not at any distance close to where they could hear him

hr manager: sir where are you, I think you will be in a problem, I think that girl is Rashmi is behind all this

he said covering his phone's speaker with another hand and sticking his gaze at the door

Rudra and Mohit were about to leave when one of the employees stop them, she was a girl in her mid 20's she seemed a little nervous in approaching them for some reason which they couldn't figure out

girl: excuse me sir

she said in a soft voice

Rudra: yes miss

he said looking at a girl who was standing nervously in front of him

Mohit: everything ok?

he added after sporting frown on her forehead

girl: sir my name is Reeta and I have something to tell you

before she could speak any further or explain what was making her this nervous and tensed someone called Rudra's name

he turn in the direction and look at the source of the voice and found Prachi's father standing there gawking at him in a confused state at him. there were four other men with him who were looking like other directors of the company

prachi's father: Rudra you here? what are you doing here? what's the matter? its rare to see you here

he said without changing the confused look on his face, he reduce their distance and stand a few inches away from him with one hand in his pocket and the other one carrying a phone

Rudra: nothing uncle I have to just come here for a normal inquiry

he said in a deep voice

prachi's father: what kind of inquiry you are doing in our firm?

before he could say anything further his uncle moved towards the other director excused himself from them and then sign Rudra to follow him

he take him to one corner of the room and then asked him the same question

Rudra: it's related to one murder case

prachi's father: what? related to a murder? in our firm? are you sure

Rudra: yes

he said in a low voice, now Prachi's father's expression changed from a confused state to a concerned state

prachi's father: I can understand that you are not ready to marry Prachi but an inquiry, you should have at least asked us, you should have talked to me at least once or you don't even consider me your uncle now? do you even know that because of you our firm's goodwill can be affected to what extent, do you even have any idea?

Rudra: I have an idea uncle that's why I didn't take any action yet

prachi's father: you are here inquiring about things behind my back and you are saying that you didn't take any action

I need to talk about this with your grandfather

he said while scratching his forehead

Rudra: uncle I don't want to create any problem for you but if I have to take any legal action I will not step back from taking it, it's my duty

prachi's father: ok then I will also deal with things in my own way saying this he left and Rudra couldn't say anything further

he returned to Mohit and search here and there for someone

Rudra: where is that girl?

Mohit: oh I don't know may b she left with those directors I didn't give attention sorry sir

Rudra: it's ok we will deal with her later let's go back to the station for now

Mohit nodded and they both left the firm

at station

all the way to the station Rudra's grandfather's name was flashing on his screen but he didn't pick knowing what the conversation will be about his head was aching so much and as soon Rudra enter the station Prachi went to him

Prachi: Rudra I got a call from dad, that what you were doing in our firm and how come i don't know about this

Rudra: listen Prachi

he said trying to calm her down, vera was sitting at a desk minding her own business
