BILLIONAIRE'S IRRESISTIBLE TEMPTATION

SHOT 97

Third person's pov!

"Jeevika ji.." Viraj breathed the words, filling it with as much love and sugar as possible.

"Viraj. Glad to hear from you after ghosting us that day.." Jeevika taunted Viraj.

"Jeevika ji.. The workload is too high. You know how my work is." Viraj added and Jeevika simply shrugged, wondering why he was calling. He doesn't usually call her. Occasionally visits her, but nothing more than that.

"Unhealthy working hours are never good, Viraj. I am tired of saying this to Viren and Sid too." Jeevika said in exasperation and Viraj got the perfect opening for whatever he wanted to ask.

"When you mentioned Sid, what's this I am hearing about Sid being in love?" Viraj asked softly, trying hard to not let this woman know that he was seething.

Nothing has been going as per his plans.

He had been convinced that Bhadra Bua was in his pocket and when he asked for Nidhi's hand in marriage, she would readily accept his proposal.

Much to his disappointment and fury, they had refused.

And to add salt to the injury, his golden egg laying duck Siddharth Singh Raizada is in love?

"Oh! I thought Viren already told you. That's what you told me that day, right?" Jeevika asked in confusion and Viraj cursed under his breath realising this was what Jeevika had been trying to tell him.

"Oh! I thought it was something else, Jeevika ji." Viraj said.

"You won't believe it, Viraj. It was such a shock for all of us.." Jeevika began to say with a laugh and at that exact time, Viraj's phone died making his curse.

THE NEXT WORKING DAY

Nidhi had reached office with Priya at her usual time.

The office was buzzing with the morning activity. The boss hadn't arrived yet, because of which the people are still gathered around in groups with their chit chats.

The hot news, obviously their boss being in love.

"Who could it be? Who is foolish enough to reject The Siddharth Singh Raichand's love?" One of the women asked in disbelief.

"She must be playing hard to get.." Another one said with a scoff.

"She must be something if Mr Raichand actually fell in love."

Nidhi walked away from there, not wanting to listen to any more of this.

"I have been here in Rey Designs since the company began. I had seen him while he was dating supermodel Jiya. And we all had seen him while he was dating Bhavna. Neither time did I ever see him looking at them with love" A middle aged woman said and everyone looked at her curiously.

""Really? I never realised."

"He always has this rock hard cold face. No emotions on his face at all. Other than anger, of course. The only time I have seen real emotions passing through his eyes and face were when Nidhi started working here" The woman said with a knowing smile.

"Nidhi? As in Parinidhi Vyas?" Tara asked, scrunching her nose in disgust and the older woman rolled her eyes.

"That was Mr Raichand's extreme level of rage and fury we witnessed while Nidhi started working here.." Daksha said with a shrug.

A bustle at the door garnered everyone's attention.

They were surprised to see supermodel Anamika walking in, as if she owns the place.

Tara and Daksha looked at each other and hurried towards Bhavna's cabin to share the news.

"Bhavz.." Tara called out.

"Yes?" Bhavna asked, looking up from her laptop screen.

"Anamika is here." Daksha said hurriedly.

"Oh she is here already?" Bhavna asked, looking at her wrist watch as she stood up from her place.

"You knew she was coming?" Tara asked miffed. Earlier, Bhavna used to be their friend. Not best friends, but they used to take tea breaks and all together, being employees of the HR department. And Bhavna used to share important things with them too. But not anymore.

"Yes. For the calendar shoot.." Bhavna said with a smirk.

Tara and Daksha shared a look and a smirk made its way to their faces as they foresaw all the ingredients for a disaster present right in front of them.

Nidhi, Siddharth and supermodel Anamika!

What if Nidhi does something stupid and enrages Anamika? Anamika would create a ruckus and naturally Siddharth Singh Raichand would blast Nidhi's head off..

Bhavna noticed the cunning smirk on two women's faces and scoffed lightly.

They are really in store for a burst out, if their evil brains and plotting ways to make Nidhi suffer.

"Okay Bhavz. We gotta go." Tara said and hurried out followed by an equally excited Daksha.

Tara and Daksha walked towards the VIP lounge where Anamika must be waiting for Siddharth Raichand.

When they found Anamika's purse, made of some expensive looking beads, they shared another smirk.

"Are you thinking what I am thinking?" Tara whispered excitedly.

"Of course, yes." Daksha whispered back.

It would simply be easy to put the blame on Nidhi because Anamika would readily believe it if they say Nidhi did it. Anamika is known for her outbursts and spoiled nature. She doesn't wait to think it through. She simply acts. And that was what they also wanted.

Swati came with a glass of orange juice and Tara and Daksha hid from her sight, but unluckily for them, Swati saw them. But Swati didn't show it as if she saw them. She wanted to know what they were up to.

Once Swati left, Tara and Daksha came out when they saw Anamika going to use the restroom. They hurried inside the lounge and pulled the bead string, causing the entire bead work to come off.

As usual Anamika created a ruckus after seeing the condition of her expensive purse.

"Oh god Anamika Ma'am! Your purse is broken? It looks so expensive." Daksha asked with an exaggerated gasp.

"It is bloody damn expensive. Who the hell did this?" Anamika screamed angrily.

"It must be Nidhi. I saw her coming here with your juice. Nobody else came here." Tara said.

"Who the hell is Nidhi?" Anamika demanded as she walked out of the VIP lounge towards the main working bay.

"She is an errand girl here. A clumsy one at that. A lower middle class girl who doesn't have any idea how to behave in a place like Rey Designs. She must have seen your beautiful purse and took it without your permission." Daksha said, adding oil to the fire.

Anamika was breathing fire when she stood in front of a confused Nidhi.

"How dare you?" Anamika asked and raised her hand with all the intention to slap Nidhi across the face.

"Anamikaaa.." It was a roar powerful enough to make the entire city quake in fear.
