Chapter 44

I smiled looking at the picture he sent two hours back but I couldn't check because of shooting at that time and he added this sad smile a few minutes back.

"Anny! We are going to have dinner together. Want to join us?" I glanced up hearing Lucky's voice and my other co-stars ready to leave with him.

"No! I have a date. Let's go another time." I said locking my phone and he nodded smiling before walking away with others.

I rushed to change my attire and also remove my makeup before reaching my car and asked the driver to change the destination and dropped Mehtab on the way.

"I will give you a call if I need you to come back." Saying that I walked inside the restaurant which is slowly filling up and waved at Deepak who seems to be in a rush.

"Where is he?" I asked and he calmly pointed to the kitchen.

When I opened the door but didn't step in, I found him frowning at Bharghav but staying aside without disturbing others.

"What happened?" I asked slowly reaching him and he turned to show his frown covering his face.

"I want to cook the one I showed you again as they all finished it to have a taste of it but he is not allowing me." He complained.

"Because we are busy today. Go away!" Bharghav commented frowning at him but his frown turned into a smile when he glanced at me.

"Let's go home if you don't have any other work. You can cook freely and I will also help." I offered glancing at Prathap and he smiled nodding.

"Before that help me with something. I am stuck with two locations and I don't know what to choose. No one is ready to choose one and this Bharghav even suggested to open at both the locations. He wants me to close my business before it even spread." He shook his head and I nodded holding his head.

After we both got back together, he finally shifted to my place as he is appointing more staff and Deepak is getting busy with too much work, he gave up the room he used to stay in for Deepak and a few staff to rest if they wish to.

I miss not going there anymore but I have my own home to stay in and he is fine with staying with me.

I thought he will actually mind as it is my place and maybe like some people he will have this stupid pride speaking like how can I stay at my girlfriend's place but he was more than fine with it. And that's why I love him more than ever.

"So, you will be busy again after starting this branch?" I asked checking the details of the sites he has difficulty with choosing.

"Not completely! Deepak and Bharghav will completely handle this place while the people they both trained will handle the new one with me guiding them. However, they all will keep on training others for future branches." He replied shrugging.

"Wow! My boyfriend is amazing." I praised using amazed tone and he shivered.

"Don't talk like that!" he mumbled rubbing his arms and I laughed nodding before trying to see the options properly.

"I heard there are many popular restaurants here and you will have too much competition from the beginning. And in the other area, the competition is less but it is mostly a residential area too so you may not completely have great profit. So, it depends on your goal." I mumbled remembering the people I know suggesting the restaurants sometimes whenever we eat out or even takeaways we bring.

"Why don't you ask Vikranth? He has a good judgment and he is your major investor too." I pointed out.

"I don't want to disturb him right now. He is busy with his new plan." He mumbled and I nodded understanding that bit.
