Since overtaking, the company continued to rise high and become the most successful empire in whole of New York. He also expanded the company and invaded international market. Arnav Singh Raizada also entered real estate and bought Elle Group and Holdings, the company which had previously dominated the market. He had made Raizada Holdings Corporations an unparalleled company in whole of NY. He also became the youngest chairman and CEO & was featured in various international business magazines as one of the richest, most successful and most sought after bachelor in America.
Only the people who worked with him knew how strict and serious he was. His name alone could make anyone cringed with fear. He didn't tolerate incompete and useless people.
As Sofya was contemplating whether to wake him up or not, there was a knock on the door and George walked in with a tray in his hand. Arnav woke up with a start, looking wildly around as Sofya moved farther away from him, her cheeks a little red. As she went to sit in front of him on legged cushion chair, then only did he notice her.
" When did you get here? "
" Just a second ago. " Sofya lied, not taking her eyes off the cup of coffee that George had placed in front of her.
" Thank You. "
Arnav ruffled his already unkept hair. Taking a sip of the decaf, he looked up at Sofya, " What was it that you wanted to talk to me about? "
" I need your help. I need you to convince Grandpa and Uncle to postpone the marriage for one more month. They will surely listen to you. And I also had to talk to you about the clauses, but since I am in a hurry, so I will just hand you this file in? It's redrafted. If you have any questions, we can discuss after I return! " There, Sofya blurted all in one go. It wasn't as hard she thought it was.
Advay lowered his cup and looked up at her increduously. Then looking at the file placed in front of him, he asked quietly " Why one month only? "
" I will be out of the country. Urgent matters. "
" Can't do. "
" But -- "
" Because Miss Sofya " he leaned forward in his chair to get a good look at her, " I also won't be in the country for one month. Urgent matters. "
Arnav leaned back in his chair, looking at Sofya and Sofya was staring right back. Really, what were the odds? Time Coincidences?
But she was going for a business trip, he thought.
But he was going for a business trip, she thought.
Little did they know that there fates were more entangled that they had ever contemplated.
" Fine. " Sofya snapped, bringing Arnav out of his reverie. " How do we resolve this issue? I am leaving day after tomorrow. "
Arnav narrowed his eyes before answering " Same. "
Then he chuckled humorously before adding " Are you sure you are not following me? "
" Hmph. Not interested. Then how do we settle this? " Sofya asked, tapping her long fingers on the wooden table. She was growing tired of this conversation. There has to be an end, right? Or a solution?
Arnav stood up and went over to the window. The sky was tar black and large, pillow clouds were forming, bringing drizzle with it. The sound pitter - patter could be heard on the window.
True, there had to be a solution, but he couldn't think on an empty stomach. It was almost 8 pm.
As he glanced backward, at the same time, thunder struck with a loud booming sound, followed immediately by lightning. He thought he saw Sofya shudder slightly, her black oval eyes wide, the weather reflected in them clearly.
" Afraid of a little lightening, Miss Sofya? " He asked casually, smirking a little.
Sofya looked up at him. " Childhood habits. "
Arnav nodded. " Yes, childhood habits die hardly. Let's go to Grill & Curry. I am famished. Then we will discuss the issue on the hand. "
Sofya stared at him. This man wanted to have dinner with her? For real?
Two months ago, they didn't knew each other, well not knew each other personally. Now, after the revelation of certain things, which included their marriage, they had a clear cut idea of how to dictate their own lives.
But the question was, will they be able to? Will they, will she be able to find love in this loveless marriage?
