Love Me Again✓

8. Face Off

She came a little closer while raising her brows and whispered something next which made Viraj froze.

"You should be lucky that till now I haven't revealed your identity in front of Kavya. But I have an offer for you, if you accept it than I promise to not tell anything to Kavya." Her aunt said with a suspicious smile on her face.

"What are you saying? Offer? I did not understand." Viraj stuttered.

"Well trust me it's going to be worth your interest after all a goon like you thrives on money and luxuries only." Kavya's aunt said with an evident hate in her voice.

"Please stop." Viraj mumbled trying to control his furiousness.

"Why? Why should I stop huh? Gali ke Gundo ka dill kabse dukhna laga?(Since when did a local goon started to feel his heart ache)" The woman said with a loud voice. Though Viraj could easily counter her but he know that the yelling woman in front of him was his wife's aunt so he needs to respect her.

"I'll give you all the money you want, all the luxuries you want, I am even ready to give you our ancestral property to you but leave our daughter here and disappear from her life. If you do that, then I'll never tell her that you were nothing but a small gangster in Mumbai." Kavya's aunt said taking Viraj's breath away.

Kavya's aunt was quite happy when she saw that Viraj's facial expressions started fading away, his anxiousness was visible to the fierce woman standing in front. However within less than a fraction of second Viraj started chortling. He threw his head back and continued chuckling which made kavya's aunt to shiver.

Viraj with a confident smirk on his face and with a dangerous glee present in his eyes, came near to the woman.

"Mrs Bansal, you really consider me as a fool right? You think that you would order me, hit my nerves and make me do what pleases you but you have forgotten who I am. Like you said I am a local goon so don't forget the authority I hold. You think that you property and money will make me your puppet and I'll leave my wife in your hands if you think so then you are highly mistaken aunty." Viraj said amusingly.

Mrs Bansal was about to rant him again but her words were cut off by Viraj.

"Don't! Please I don't want to hear you yelling and screaming at me again because I don't want my wife to stress on unwanted worries. From past one year I have been trying my best to take her away from all the pain and you are back to square one unnecessarily creating rift between us.

Mrs Bansal you are my wife's aunt and there are certain things which you don't know about my wife and her family and I want to keep it that way there are things which as a husband I don't want anyone to know about my wife because for me her privacy for safety and more important than what other people's perception are about me.

I really don't care what you think about me I had stopped pondering over other people's opinion way long back but she still cares and thinks about other's so kindly be at peace with me for the time being we are here and regarding my past I know that I am not a great choice for your niece but nobody can love her like I do." Viraj uttered making Mrs Bansal stunned.

"Oh God! Seriously do you really consider yourself as a megastar of a movie and me as a villain who is deliberately trying to snatch the heroine from the hero if you really think so then I would suggest you to think again because in reality the villain is you who has unfortunately got the heroine. Don't forget that villains like you never deserve a happy end and I will make sure that your truth gets exposed in front of Kavya.

What do you think huh? That if she gets to know that you were a gangster before marrying her then she will be cordial with it. Do you think she will be happily accepting the crimes you have done in your past, do you think it will be easy for her to digest the fact that you are nothing but a roadside mobster. If you think like this then you should really consider the option of going to a psychiatrist." Mrs Bansal mocked Viraj and now it was her turn to laugh at Viraj's stoic expression.
