ROYAL HIGHNESS

05. Meeting gone wrong.

Author's POV:

Advait was contacted by Rudr regarding the scandal. They fixed a meeting spot which was a temple near to Ovie's villa. She had said that if they talked in some coffee house or other places, they would surely get caught by the paparazzi. He was already stunned by her beauty but now he was impressed by her way of thinking. He was currently waiting for her at their meeting spot. He smiled warmly as soon as he spoted her coming towards him.

"Hello beautiful!" He said in a flirty tone when she stood infront of him and extended the bouquet he bought for her on his way.

"Yeh kya harkat hai?" (What is this behavior?) She folded her hands across her chest and narrowed her eyes at the bouquet.

"Flower ke liye flowers hai!" (Flowers for a flower!) He winked.

"Tumne hi janbuj kar rumor failaya hai na?!" (You deliberately spread this rumor, didn't you?)

"What? Seriously...?" He was taken aback by her sudden accusation.

"Bano mat mere aage!" (Don't pretend!)

"Ji nahi ban raha main!" (I'm not pretending!) He said scoffing.

"Yaar, Iam serious." She said keeping a poker face.

"Yeh lo ji! Yaar bhi kehti ho aur blame bhi... Haaye yeh ladkiyaan!!" (Come on, you call me yaar yet you blame me. Oof, these girls!!) He said dramatically.

"Toh ye tumne nahi kiya?" (So, you didn't do it?)

"Ji nahi. Man na hai toh mano ya rehne do. As if I care!" (No. Believe it or not or leave it.) He said shrugging.

"How rude of you. Abhi toh mazak kar rahe the jaise tum mere bhai ho!" (You were joking till now as if you were my brother!) She rolled her eyes.

"Oye ladki, bhai nahi bol mujhe!!" (Girl, don't call me brother!!) He stared at her like he couldn't believe that she just called him brother. Of course, because he has feelings for her that he has yet to realize.

"Oh ho! Bhai sab ko lagi uh? Tum saare ladke ek jaise hi hote ho. Despo!" (Did you feel bad? You guys are all the same.) She said mocking him. He moved forward trying to dominate her.

"Darti nahi hu main kisike baap se bhi! Samjhe?" (Iam not afraid of anyone's dad! Understand?)

"Tum sacch mein koi famous actress ho?" (Are you really a famous actress?) He said looking her up and down as if judging her.

"What?" She narrowed her eyes at him.

"What, what? Tumhari baat karne ki tarika dekho! Aisa lagta hai koi chote gaav ki piddi si ladki ho." (Look at the way of your speaking! Seems as if you are illiterate village girl.) Now it was his turn to roll his eyes at her.

"Tum koi nawabzaade ho kya? Tum bhi toh waise hi baat kar rahe ho!" (Are you an emperor or what? You are talking just like me!) She raised her voice at him.

"Himmat toh dekho tumhari! Kya tumne mere baare mein suna nahi hai?" (Look at your dareness! Didn't you hear about me?) He said raising his brows at her.

"Kya sun na hai? Mujhe toh tumhara naam tak pata nahi tha!" (What should I have heard? I didn't even know your name!) She mocked scoffing. Of course she didn't pay attention to the fact that he was the second prince of the Pathak family. She was deeply involved thinking how to handle this scandal.

"Jaise main tumko bada jaanta hu!! Jab tumhare manager ne contact kiya, tabhi mujhe pata laga." (As if I already knew you!! I only came to know about you when your manager contacted me.) He rolled his eyes scoffing. He was now badly offended by her choice of words.
