As I sat in my office, going through the last of the reports for the day, my phone buzzed with an alert. I picked it up, expecting another business notification, but instead, it was a message from one of the security team members. My eyes narrowed as I read the brief report.
Yuvika ma'am had given a lift to Daksh Agarwal in London.
My grip on the phone tightened instinctively. The thought of her even being in the same vicinity as that snake made my blood boil. I didn't mistrust Yuvika-far from it. I knew her better than anyone, and I trusted her completely in this. But Daksh?! What the fuck was he doing there in London, that too when Yuvika was there?! Was it just a coincidence or something pre-planned? But how did he know about Yuvika's visit to London? It was decided at the last moment! The man was a conniving bastard who couldn't be trusted as far as he could be thrown. The idea of him being close to Yuvika, alone in a confined space like an SUV, was enough to set my nerves on edge.
I could feel the familiar surge of anger rising within me, my mind racing with thoughts. What the hell was he doing there, stranded on the side of the road? It reeked of something planned, something that wasn't as innocent as it appeared. And even if it was just a coincidence, the fact that Daksh was involved made it all the more infuriating. I stood up from my chair, pacing the length of my office. The irritation bubbled over, a mix of protectiveness and sheer dislike for that man. I didn't want him anywhere near my wife. She was too kind, too pure-hearted to see through someone like him. He was the type to twist any situation to his advantage, and I couldn't bear the thought of him trying to manipulate Yuvika.
But it wasn't Yuvika I was angry with. No, she was just doing what anyone with her kind heart would do- helping someone in need. I knew that. Yet, it didn't stop the frustration from gnawing at me. The issue was Daksh. The problem was that I couldn't trust that man's intentions, not with Yuvika, not with anything.
I took a deep breath, forcing myself to calm down. I knew I needed to approach this rationally, not let my emotions get the better of me. But I couldn't shake the thought of what might have gone through Daksh's mind when he saw Yuvika, how he might have taken advantage of the situation. I hated the idea of her being anywhere near his orbit.
Grabbing my phone again, I shot off a quick message to the head of security, instructing them to keep a closer eye on Daksh whenever he was in proximity to Yuvika. I wasn't going to let that man get any closer to her than he already had.
I knew I couldn't bring this up with Yuvika in anger, though. She didn't deserve that. Instead, I'd talk to her, calmly, explain why I was concerned. I'd make sure she understood my reasons, not because I didn't trust her, but because I cared too damn much to let someone like Daksh even think he had a chance to play his games with her. As I finally sat back down, I could feel the anger simmering just below the surface, but I pushed it down.
