ROYAL REPLACEMENT [ON HOLD]

CHAPTER 6: KUWAR SA

It was Monday, and the palace felt a bit emptier after Dado left for her home. She had stayed for two more days, making sure everything was in order before she departed. Before leaving, Dado had gifted Sahar set of glass bangles in almost every color, insisting that she should never leave her hands bare. Sahar appreciated the gesture but knew she wouldn't be following that advice—she found the noise they made too distracting and irritating.

With Dado gone and the everything settling back to it's place, Sahar was eager to focus on her new business. Today was an important day; she was going to inspect properties for her new venture.

Abhimaan had already left for work earlier in the morning, but not before assigning her a personal bodyguard for her safety. Although Sahar was used to having security, having a dedicated bodyguard was a new experience. She didn't mind it though.

Over the weekend, Sahar had also gone back to Mr. Rajawat's house to retrieve her belongings. Thankfully, neither Mr. Rajawat nor her uncle was home, and her aunt, who was present, avoided her like the plague. Sahar was relieved to avoid any uncomfortable confrontations.

Dressed in a light coffee-colored formal suit paired with a white V-neck silk camisole top, Sahar felt confident and ready for the day. Her makeup was minimal, with a touch of brown lipstick to complete her look, and her hair fell in natural waves. Slipping into her nude heels and grabbing her bag, she took one last look in the mirror before heading out.

Stepping out of her room, Sahar took the lift down to the parking lot, where Tushar, her new bodyguard, was already waiting by the Range Rover. He stood by the backseat door, holding it open for her with a professional yet polite demeanor.

"Good morning, ma'am," Tushar greeted as she approached.

"Good morning," Sahar responded with a small smile as she slipped into the backseat.

After briefing Tushar about her plans for the day, the car set off, and they headed toward their first destination.

After evaluating two properties that Sahar found unsuitable, they arrived at the third property.

"We have arrived, ma'am," Tushar announced as he got out of the car. The only inconvenience of having a bodyguard was that she couldn't exit the car without him opening the door. Other than this everything else was tolerable.

She stepped out of the car with Tushar following closely behind her and met Shukla ji, her broker, who was waiting at the property gate.

"Madam, you'll love this one," Shukla ji said with a broad smile.

"You said the same thing about the other two properties, Shukla ji" Sahar reminded him.

"You'll definitely like this one, madam, trust me," Shukla ji assured her as he led the way inside.

At first glance, Sahar didn't dislike the property, which she considered a significant achievement. It wasn't perfect, but it had potential, especially with renovations.

"You mentioned you wanted to open a store, right, madam? This would be perfect for that," Shukla ji pointed out.

The more Sahar examined the place, the more she liked it. It was clear it would need some work, but it had promise.

"What do you think of this one, Tushar?" Sahar asked. Throughout their journey, Sahar has realised that Tushar has great knowledge about properties.

"This looks good, ma'am. It will need some renovation, but the outcome could be very favorable," Tushar confirmed, echoing Sahar's thoughts.
