Devika's POV

Soon, I found RJ sitting in a seat in front of the stage. The seat beside him was empty. His eyes were searching for someone.

He's looking out for Rimisha it seems...

I smiled evilly at this and took my place just beside him.

" Hi RJ! " I said side hugging him and giving him a bitchy smile.

His eyes screamed with anger as he flared his nostrils just like a dragon. The only difference was that the fire was missing. He was ready to burst upon me while I was ready to show him my worth.

Oh RJ... I am gonna prove my innocence to you now. It will be fun...

" What the fuck are you even doing here? Where's Rimisha? " He asked trying his best not to shout at me in front of everyone by keeping his voice in check. 

I blinked my eyes dreamily and gave him a bitchy smile which clearly screamed that 'I don't care the fuck of what you think or say about me.' 

He huffed angrily at my behavior and passed his hand through his hair which was nicely done before but now is messed up as the wild grass. He bit up his lower chin in anger and turned around to face me again.

"Get lost before I call the guards and ask them to throw you out !" He said showing me his index finger. I bluffed his warnings in the air and replied,

"You wouldn't do that now." 

"What on earth makes you think like that now ?" He asked narrowing his eyes at me.

"Well... The media is here and all the known faces of the business world add stars to this place. Most of them already know that I was your assistant back then. If you believe in creating a scene here then I also won't hold myself back. I will play my game and then force everyone to believe me for I was your ex-assistant now RJ, wasn't I ?" I asked raising my eyebrows at him. 

He chuckled evilly at this and looked at the man who was now welcoming everyone standing behind the podium. I smiled at this and settled myself nicely on my seat.

After all, it's gonna be a long afternoon now!

"You know right... You are playing with fire. This fire shall burn you the moment you step out of this place." He threatened me openly. 

You will be thankful to me at the end of this day. Today only, I will leave you and this place forever RJ. You hate me already and so do I... I just wish that destiny never makes our paths cross again. 

"Well... I believe in living the present and right now it will be a treat to watch you lose this deal." I said winking at him. 

Everyone was engrossed in hearing the words of the host when this man here suddenly caught hold of my wrist. I gasped at his sudden action and looked at his face and then at my hand.

" Leave me..." I whispered lowly trying my best not to create a scene here.

Had this been another time then I would have openly insulted him for this. But right now, I can't! If I create a scene now then RJ also won't spare any time to get me kicked out of here. He is only stopping himself for his so-called image now. I can't ruin everything after coming so long here now.

He placed our hands in between our seats, exactly between our legs... Hiding it from everyone's eyes. 

" Bear it..." He said digging up his nails into my skin. I bit my lips to stop myself from screaming. I looked around thinking of a way exactly to save myself from his anger now.

Oh yes...

"If you are getting so angry just because you believe that I have gatecrashed your important conference meeting then I wonder that what are you gonna do when you will get to know of my real, main act? " I asked trying to grab his attention to this new topic now. 

His eyes widened up at my words here and soon he loosened up his grip on my delicate hand.

"What have you done now ?" He asked in a cold voice that was laced with both disgust and hatred now.

Ufff... Kitna sukoon mil raha hai mujhe ab iski baaton main apne liye nafrat pa kar. Become mine... Become mine... sun sun k bas pakk hi gaye the mera kaan. Almost suicide kar liya tha unn logo ne. Main isse bina sach bataye hi bhaag jaati... Kar leta phir ye mujhse umar bhar nafrat. Bas baat meri image ki aa gai jisse mujhe mere colleague staff members k saamne think karni hai. Chor nhi ab main... Haaye meri kismat ! As always, no shock...

(Ufff... How shall I describe the peace which I am getting from hearing his voice which is filled with complete hatred for me? Become mine... Become mine... Hearing the same phrase, again and again, my ears had almost committed suicide now. It would have been better if I would have left this place leaving him behind to hate me for the rest of my life. But it's about my image which I have to clear in front of my fellow colleagues. I am not a thief. My destiny sucks... As always, no shock...)

" I stopped Rimisha from submitting on the tender files which you guys had prepared 'together'." I admitted stressing up on the word 'together'. 

I am still now able to digest seeing these two together like that. It's like every bone in my flesh burns imagining that grand entry scene of them.

"Then..." He uttered asking me to continue.

Oh, wait... I forgot to continue my main revealing the story part in my own emotions.

" Yeah... Where was I? Yes... So I simply stopped her and submitted my tender files... The tender files which were made by me at the counter posing to be your assistant." I said smirking at him. There was no reaction for a couple of seconds. He kept looking at me just like that.

Did he suddenly get paralyzed now or what?

"What?" Came the loud reaction of RJ.

Everyone looked at us with the host stopping up in between his speech.

"Is there something wrong Mr. Jaiswal? " The host asked this Hitler.

"No... Nothing. What can go wrong? We are sorry for the noise. Please continue sir." I spoke up before RJ could even say anything back to the host.

The host nodded at my words and the show continued like before.

" You are lying..." He said refusing to believe my words. I simply shook my head and handed over the copy of my submitted files to him as well as the signature token which I had received after submitting the original files.

"I will send you to jail." RJ threatened me again taking a look at the papers. 

Well, he too clearly knows that the once submitted tender files can't be withdrawn.

"Maybe you can... But for now, it's gonna be better if you keep your mouth shut and wait for the show to unfold RJ. I am just here right there beside that support pillar in case if you need me. I really wanna enjoy seeing you lose and that's not gonna be possible till the time I am here listening to your chit-chat." I said and hopped out of my seat towards the support pillar leaving behind a fuming RJ back there.

The announcements started with the host grabbing everyone's attention except that of RJ. RJ's eyes were fluctuating between me and the host. I was noticing everything yet chose to remain silent and watch the show unfold slowly.

Time passed...

"And the tender files which we have chosen for our company is one of the best which we have seen in the recent times. Though we were not at all surprised to see to whom it even belonged to. The champ of this business world has earned the project. This project goes to Mr. Rajveer Jaiswal and his company." The host announced and this was followed up by huge applauds.

Everyone was looking and smiling at RJ while RJ's eyes were fixed on me. His eyes were filled with an unknown emotion and I couldn't figure out what exactly this guy was even thinking here. I clapped and smiled at him.

No matter how much do I even hate him... But I can't disagree with a fact that he's one of the best businessmen here. His hard work always is applaudable and his work is just perfect. It's not just about me but this guy here surely deserved this project.

" We would like to invite Mr. Jaiswal to come over the stage and enlighten us with his future vision of this project. " The host called him and that's when RJ came out of his thoughts and looked at the presence of the host.

He straightened up his collar and walked towards the stage in all his glory. He stood behind the podium and looked at me.

" This... This project doesn't belong to me. It is owned by my staff members and my assistant Devika. Without them and especially Devika, this was all like a dream. " He said making me shocked with his words.

Like yes... I had expected that he would certainly be happy with me after all this at the end. But thanking me in front of everyone is something which I had never expected at all. This was something new and perhaps, I was liking it as well.

He then continued with the future vision that he has for this project and now it's the time.

This is the best time to leave this place. Everyone is hearing his speech. No one is gonna notice if I leave this place now. I smiled at RJ and turned around. I started walking towards the door silently and turned a bit to look at RJ for one last time.

He was looking at me only while continuing his speech. There was a frown on his face and after giving him a smile I left.

After 2 hours.

Devika's POV

I have returned back to my hotel now. I have been packing my clothes and arranging the other stuff for the past half an hour. I will be checking out of this place within the next hour. I have already thrown up my sim card in a bin after crushing it nicely.

I don't want anyone to contact me anymore. 

Sorry, Amy and Arjun!

I am leaving this place without informing you guys. But again it would have brought sadness to the three of us equally. You would have tried to stop me. Hence, making it all the more difficult for me to leave.

But I do promise you that once I find Jiya, I will be back here to meet you two. I will never forget you guys and all those things which you have done for me. But right now, my priorities are different and important to me the most now.

I am sorry...

I was lost in my thoughts when the doorbell rang grabbing my attention. I stopped my chain of thoughts and wondered who must the person be at the other side of the door.

It must be the serviceman. He must have been here to offer me the help to check out. 

I walked slowly yet steadily towards the door and opened it up with a swift swing. 

Soon after this, I was embraced into a hug as the man said,

"Why did you leave the venue so suddenly, Devika?" 

RJ...
