Matthew knew that Mangesh was knowing our plan but still he tried and said," Oh really!!
You want me to see the face of that person who will spoil my life.You don't want to believe me, you don't. I will beg on the roads to survive,"
This line made the desired impact on him.
He replied," Not required. You are not lying.
I know this as yesterday I sent my loyal servant to keep an eye on you and he also told me the same.
And the company, that can't be transferred too fast to you but you will be the owner till then, not by papers but by work.
The owner about whom I told you is not there only.
I lied to you to know whether you are lying are not,"
I was really very happy to hear this.
Our plan was about to get successful.
I was just praying that the second step also gets successful.The next step was to make Matthew's company so helpless, that he has no other option for Mangesh rather than the tie up of the companies.
But how, that was an issue??
After Matthew made that successful, we decided to have a meeting.
In that, we were going to decide that how to do that.
He came and said," Instantly, I thought that we were failed.
It gave me a very depressive feeling. But, at the end, all was fine.
Now, what the next??"
"I came here to tell you this only," I said. "You know it will not sound great but I want to make him..."
"Helpless. I know," Matthew said.
"But how??" I asked.
"Let me think," Matthew said.
He thought for a while and then said," Oh!! How did I forgot about it,"
"About what??"
"The taxes,"
I gave a bewildered gesture.
"Means I want to say that every month we send our servants to go and pay the taxes and loans whatever we have in the company.
If I give them to you, then we have no other option left rather than the tie-up.
As no company is such strong as yours and secondly, father will not wish that his company is seized by the government,"
"Yeah!! But what's the exact solution??" I asked.
"Instead of paying the taxes, I will give the same amount to you and say to father that they have been stolen by someone.
Then, our company will become so helpless that we have to do the tie-up because your company can only lend us that money,"
"Nice ruse. But this will only be the tie-up between the two companies. What about the families??" I asked.
"Later, we will sort out that also.
First let us complete that what we have thought of," Matthew chuckled.
"Yeah sure," I said.
"What!! Anything happened??"
"I am still not liking this. I don't want to betray anyone to fulfil our wish," I said.
"Oh!! Come on, Ryan. If we are betraying someone for other's benefit, then it's not wrong," Matthew answered.
"Yeah," I said.
Though I said yes in front of me, but I wasn't wishing to do the same but no other option also was left.
Therefore, we did as planned.
The next day, the money for submitting the taxes was to be delivered.
Very quietly, Matthew came and handed over all the money to me.
"Hit me," Matthew said.
"What!! Are you gone mad!!" I said.
"No!! I am saying so that I can tell him that thieves came, they hit me, took the money and went away," Matthew explained.
"Embellisher!!" I chuckled.
"It will be very tough for me to hit you but let me try," I added on.
Then, after so much of efforts I tried to hit him with all my force, then he said,"I didn't say to be too harsh,"
"See, however I tried my best, then too you are passing sarcastic comments on me. Now leave for your house and continue your drama," I said.
We both passed a smile to each other.
He went there, and started shouting in the hall, where everyone slowly started coming, listening to his shout," Oh, I don't know that God will forgive ne or not.
What a sin I have committed!!"Then Mangesh came and asked," What happened??"
"The money to pay the taxes has been stolen by thieves. How brutally they hit me!!" He continued his drama.
"Oh no!! Now, what will we do?? Our company will be seized by government, if we didn't pay them and for paying them we don't have money even to pay it,"
