Can You Mend My Broken Heart?

342 AKIRA, the Slayer - 2

"Vikram?", David asked all surprised.

Even though he knew what Vikram had done, he had protected his interests just for the sake of Akira. Because of all the people around Akira, he was the only pillar that she could lean on to after Raymond had disappeared and he had seen him change his ways and getting all reformed for good.

"So you know?", asked David.

"Yes I know and I am assuming you are also aware of what he did to Raymond. I mean his sniper guy might not have pulled the trigger, but he eventually would have. And we all are in this mess because of him."

"I agree, but he has changed Akira. He has become so much more refined now."

"But that doesn't change anything. Does it? He clearly had the intention to kill Raymond. I guess GANAPATIJI was taking care of him and he was lucky that Sebastian had employed his men. Else God knows what would have had happened, David."

"We already have too much on our plate Akira. Do you think making one more enemy would be a good idea? Plus I think he might have changed his ways by now for real. The philanthropic activities done by his company has increased by 42% over that last year."

"Making an enemy is better than making a friend who can come and bite you back at any point in time. Don't you think so?"

David listened to her silently and was engrossed in deep thoughts when Akira said,

"Remember David, a snake never forgets to bite. Doesn't matter even if you take away its poisonous fangs or not. He might have changed now but what will happen when he finds out that Raymond is alive. Do you think he will stay quiet? Do you think he will let us live peacefully?"

"I have already lost so much of my precious time with Raymond because of him. I can't afford to lose anymore based on any uncertainty."

David understood that whatever Akira was saying was absolutely correct. So he asked,

"What do you intend to do Akira?"

"I intend to put that man behind bars."

David couldn't believe her words and he asked again,

"Are you sure Akira? I mean given the sort of relationship you share, you seriously want to do this?"

"Maybe right now you are all emotional as you have just gotten to know about the whole scenario. But will you be able to stay strong and battle with your emotions to put him behind the bars as the time passes? It might eat you up Akira. The burden of guilt might be too heavy to be carried by your shoulders."

"David, I have already lost the important people in my life at a very young age. I lost someone a year and a half back, but somehow a miracle has brought him back again into my life. So trust me when I say this - NOTHING and I mean NOTHING can stop me from avenging his pain."

"Fine if you are sure about it then we can do this."

"I am sure about this David. This is the only thing that I want. I want to eliminate all the people who can possibly stand in between me and Raymond."

"Do you have any plan in your mind Akira?"

"Yes, I do."

"What is it?"

"Last time, in fact, all the times in the past, he had played with us. But this time, I will play with him instead."

"What do you mean?"

"We have our new project coming up right? In this project, he is our sole investor."

"Yes, I am aware of it."

"I am supposed to sign a deal with him tomorrow morning and I need those papers to have our clauses and not theirs."

"But I think we have already gone through their final draft and from our legal and financial team side the papers were ok. With just one day to go, can we do changes?"

"I do not think this deal will be so straightforward. So call up our finance team and ask them to object against some clause and get the deal pushed by a couple of days."

"But that will impact the release date of our game. If we don't get the money soon then how are we going to pay Azmer Group for their tech? They will not start until we pay them the upfront money that we have agreed to based on our deal."

"The amount of money that Vikram is going to invest in this game is huge and I want his money to stay in a hung state. I don't want him to be able to access it. I need you to create some legal dispute or the other. Make it happen, David."

"Don't worry." Leave that to me. I will handle this."The lord who wards away all the evil as per Hindu Mythology.
