Mysterious Time Traveler in Dwapara Yuga

Chapter 12: The Heiress Unveiled: Bhoomi's Public Debut

After the lockdown, life gradually returned to normal, and Bhoomi developed a passion for cooking and natural perfume making. She began overseeing the production process of her new perfume formula at the Vishnudina industry, a department dedicated to this line as the company was recovering from the Covid-19 stagnation. The fragrance, loved by everyone, led to her father's decision to mass produce it. News of this, along with the revelation of Bhoomi's identity as the heiress, went viral. Her overprotective father finally allowed the public to know more about her.

Reporters began blocking their way home as they finished work, causing inconvenience for the workers. Bhoomi suggested to her father that they hold a press conference in the auditorium to prevent further disruption. Shivaji, angry at the reporters' behavior and worried about his daughter, agreed. He knew how some reporters asked irritating, illogical questions. Manoj, understanding his mission to protect his sister, parked a car near the emergency exit in case the situation got out of control.

Despite their concerns, Bhoomi was at ease, having learned a thing or two from Adil, who was a master of words. She took the middle seat, flanked by her father and brother, as reporters filled the room. As her father exchanged pleasantries, Bhoomi discreetly chatted with her friends and mother, a gesture that didn't go unnoticed by Manoj, who had informed their mother. He smiled, thinking it would reduce her stress.

The question session began with reporters asking why she hadn't appeared before, her future plans, if she was seeing someone, and if she would take over the family business like her brother did with the hospital wing. Bhoomi answered each question without revealing too much, maintaining a friendly demeanor. She skillfully shifted the focus to the company, giving a brief overview of its plans for the year.

After forty minutes, the press conference concluded, turning into free publicity for the company. Although they didn't need it, it reinforced the notion that getting information from Bhoomi was no easy task. She had effectively woven a web of words that promoted the company. It became official: crossing paths with Bhoomi would lead to one's own loss.

Bhoomi's perfume became a blockbuster, and she took control of the perfumery and cosmetic division while managing her other identities. Their organization became worldwide, with members identified by numbers, and Bhoomi handled rewards and demotions based on performance. If a member lost their life in the line of duty, the organization took care of their families. Thanks to their international spy system, the death toll had minimized.

As a doctor, her patients were mostly wealthy individuals, and her fees were structured in company shares ranging from 5% to 45% based on the moral value of the person. If a person with a blackened record came to her, it was 45%, while good individuals paid 5%. Bhoomi used this money for free medical services in small villages or places with many children or elderly people, providing early disease treatment and education for children under 18. She also offered skill-based training to help people earn their own money and set up defense classes for those interested. Additionally, she hired students from her skill-based training programs, ensuring their futures were secure.

The year had been eventful. Bhoomi became an aunt to twins, bringing immense happiness to her family. Her second brother's marriage was announced, and her father humorously declared he would only marry her off at the age of fifty. Bhoomi was thrilled with this decision. As preparations for the wedding began, she needed to attend to a patient in their 80s who couldn't travel, requiring her to go to China alone. Her friends were busy with organizational work, but an alliance with a friendly organization made her feel safe. She informed her family she had a business meeting and would return a week before the wedding.

Bhoomi despised betrayal. Once she realized what was happening, she discreetly sent a message to The Shadows, who were enraged but worried. Adil decided to seek help from Lucifer, a contact in China. Initially, the others were hesitant, knowing Lucifer had romantic feelings for Bhoomi, but her safety was the priority. Adil called Lucifer, who hadn't contacted him in nearly three years. When the call went to voicemail, Adil's worry grew. He prepared for a rescue mission with fully trained members, knowing the risk was high as it was their first mission without Bhoomi.

As they were about to board a private flight to China, Adil's phone rang. It was Lucifer. Overwhelmed with relief, Adil explained the situation and arranged for Lucifer's assistance. Unknown to Adil, this call already sparked a storm in China. Lucifer, a significant underworld member, was at odds with the organization that kidnapped Bhoomi. They had risen to the second position with help from another group, but recent leadership changes made them a thorn in the underworld's side.
