Zoya went to her office by 9.00am in Malad East and completed her few works that needs to be closed. She informed Stanley, "Mr. Hector, Mr. Aditya called me this morning and said he want some clarifications in the details we provided. He asked me to come to his office by 11.00pm". Stanley said, "Yea... He told me about that Zoya. You just go there and sorted it out. Please take your time and close it. There is no hurry to come back". "Sure Mr. Hector, I'll take care of it", she said.

Then by 10.30am she booked a cab and headed to Hooda Real Estates in Malad west.

She reached there by 5 minutes to 11.00am and informed the receptionist that she is here to meet Mr. Aditya Hooda. Receptionist called Aditya and checked with him, "Aditya, Ms. Zoya Khan is here to meet you from Mr. Hector's office. Shall I send her in?" After a pause, she said, "Okay, Aditya" and disconnects the call.

"Ms. Zoya, he asked you to come to his office", she said. Before Zoya could ask for the way, she said, "Take lift to 5th floor, on your left 3rd door is his office".

Zoya took the lift and reached 5th floor then on her left she find the door with golden name plate that says "Chief Financial Officer". She knocked on the door and opened it. Aditya looked at her and smiled. "May I come in, Mr. Aditya?" she asked. "Come in, Zoya", he said.

He asked her sit and called the reception, "Linda, for next half an hour, please don't connect any calls or send any one to my office".

He went to the file cabinet on his left and picked up the files that she gave it to him. Zoya looked around and wondered "how much it would have cost them to construct this one room for "CFO"?"

It was a well polished room, big enough for a couple to live comfortably, full white colored with fancy false ceiling, centralized air-conditioner and full glass wall actually you could see the city from there. In the center, teak wood desk and fancy office chair, even the two chairs in the front is not less to the other. On the right corner, L-shaped couch with teak wood coffee table.

On the left, file cabinets and book shelves. He had lots of books related to financials and he even had novels.

Aditya came back to Zoya and asked her, "Can we sit in the couch, so that we can discuss on the points easily?" She uncomfortably said, "Okay". Both moved to couch, she sat in the end of couch uncomfortably. He said, "Make yourself comfortable, Zoya. You're sitting in the corner, you might fall. Move up and sit properly". She felt irritated but didn't say anything and she adjust herself and sat properly.

Aditya sat in the middle and quiet comfortable distance from Zoya. Even Zoya got confused with his action. She thought he asked her to sit properly, so that he can sit next to her and flirt with her.

Then he took the notes he pointed where he needed clarification and showed it to her. She studied the points he noted. Then she took her laptop and opened the files that are related to his points and showed it to him. He got a call while he was looking at the files. He immediately attended the call once he saw the caller ID.

He gestured Zoya to wait for a minute and said in the phone, "Hey bum... How are you? And where are you?" A brief pause then said, "Okay bum... I'm sorry... I kind of in the middle of the meeting, I'll call you after I finish up the meeting." Again a brief pause, then said, "I love you bum... Bye", he disconnected the call and get back to his place.

"Sorry... It's my fiancé I can't ignore her calls", he said and continued to view the files. Zoya thought she didn't expect him to apologies but he did apologies and didn't expect her to react or say anything for that. "Is he even for real?" she thought to herself.

After 10-15 minutes, "Zoya... Please send these files to me. I may require them for further procedures and thank you for your time", he said and stood up. She too stood up with him and he extends his hands and she shakes it. "It's okay Mr. Aditya. It's our work to help you and your concern" she said politely.
