His Vengeance Wife

Chapter 2

Akhil Agarwal stormed into his company with a visibly angry expression, striking fear into anyone who crossed his path. His reputation for danger when enraged was well-known among his colleagues.

As he approached the closing lift doors, they abruptly halted, and the newcomer, with a shocked expression, turned out to be none other than Vihaan Singh, his best friend.

Vihaan: "Bro! What's that mark on your cheek? Who dared to harm you?" he demanded angrily.

Akhil sighed in frustration, struggling to contain his anger towards his best friend.

Vihaan: "Were you attacked?"

Akhil: "No."

Vihaan: "Then who did this?"

Before Akhil could respond, the lift doors opened, and he left Vihaan and his inquiries behind, heading straight to his father's office, ignoring Vihaan's worried calls.

Inside his father's office, Akhil sat down opposite him, inquiring about the urgent summons.

Akhil: "Why the urgent call, Dad? Is something wrong?"

Karan: "Well, my child, it's time for you to take over the company. I'm getting old. What do you think?"

Akhil: "I'm ready anytime, Dad. Just give me the date, and I'll be prepared."

Karan smiled proudly at his mature son.

Karan: "But for that, you'll need to get married."

Akhil sighed in frustration.

Akhil: "Not again, Dad. We've discussed this. I'm not interested in love. I don't have time for these trivial matters."

Karan: "Watch your language, Akhil. And I'm not asking you to marry tomorrow or anyone in particular. Just find a suitable girl, young man. But you only have one month. If not, forget about the CEO position."

His father's tone was stern.

Karan: "Not every girl is a cheater. Until you give someone a chance, how will you find the perfect match? Think wisely, hmm?"

This time, his father's tone softened.

Akhil: "Yes, I'll try."

As he rose from his chair to leave, his father teased him.

Karan: "By the way, I hope that mark on your cheek wasn't given by a girl."

Akhil shook his head and left the office, only to find Vihaan was still waiting anxiously, his concern evident on his face.

Vihaan: "Bro, what's going on? Is everything okay?"

Akhil paused, contemplating whether to share his father's ultimatum with his best friend. Eventually, he decided to confide in Vihaan.

Akhil: "you won't believe what my dad just told me. He wants me to get married within a month, or else I can forget about taking over the company."

Vihaan's eyes widened in disbelief.

Vihaan: "What? But why? And in just a month? That's insane!"

Akhil nodded, his frustration evident.

Akhil: "I know, it's ridiculous. But my dad is adamant. He thinks I need to settle down and find someone before I can fully take on the responsibility of running the company."

Vihaan frowned, realizing the gravity of the situation.

Vihaan: "Well, what are you going to do?"

Akhil shrugged, feeling overwhelmed by the sudden pressure.
