His pale and panicked face was a feast for my eyes. His uneasiness was evident all over his posture. Hesitantly he took my hand in for shake. His sweating palms show he was nervous. Never in his wild dreams would he have thought that I will be standing in front of him like this. But yes, here I'm standing in front the man whose face gives me the most disgusting feeling in the whole world and shaking his hand. Because I'm Vedant Aryan and Aryan's never forget nor forgive, and I will get my vengeance in every possible way.

"You are one of the biggest real estate groups in the country, then what made you to buy the shares of our hotel? What is the sudden interest in hotel business? What is your benefit in this?" one of the board members asked.

"Hmmm. To be frank this has nothing to do with our company. This is my personal choice." I looked at Mr. Varma. He looked away with a tight face. "You can call it as a personal asset. You know this is one of the top star hotels in the city with good credentials and I thought it will be a good asset for me. So I took advantage of the opportunity, that's all. And I don't intend any harm to the hotel. Hope we can be cooperative with each other. I will be staying here for while, so that we can understand each other well in coming days." I gave a warm smile to everyone in the room.

Everyone still had doubts on their faces. But they didn't question my intentions further. Mr. Varma was shooting daggers at me through his eyes. After few introductions to the management and some discussions about recent ongoing projects the meeting finished and everyone bid their goodbyes.

Everyone was living the hall. "Mr. Varma can I have a word with you?" i asked him. He stopped in his tracks turned to me. He looked at me nervously and said "Sure." Then he made a gesture to his secretary to go on and walked towards me.

"How are you Mr. Varma? We are seeing each other after all these years and you didn't even ask me about my whereabouts. Now that's a shame you know. We had such a history together and you ignore me like this. Oops. Its hurt." I placed my hands on my chest playfully.

He gritted his teeth and with an irked expression. "I know you are not doing this for any personal asset. Do you really want me to believe all this bull shit? What is in your mind?" he asked anger all over his face.

I chuckled. Guts of this man. After everything he caused he still have the face to look at me and question. My blood started boiling. I moved closer to him, even though he is tall my height was towering him.

I fisted my fingers, so that I won't grab his collar. "You guessed very well, i do have so much more in my interest for you. I will do whatever it takes to get you down. I will take everything you have. And this is my first step. Did you really think that i will forget what you did? Do you know how it feels to hold your dying father in your hands? Praying for his life and sitting in front of a hospital room for hours and finally hearing that you lost the best thing in your life. You took my father from me. You tore our family apart. And now it's your time, to feel the pain. Alas, you did everything for money right. I will make sure that you won't have a single penny with you. I promise you that I will take you to streets with nothing. Every day you will wake up worrying what will happen to you? I will let you feel that emotion, slowly and painfully. You will not have a clue when everything you had slipping through your hands. You just wait and watch." With that I left the room.

I was unaware that revenge can make you feel this high. The scared face of Mr. Varma was priceless. The spark hidden inside me for the ten years was slowly starting to ignite. And it was giving me a wicked addiction, which I was unaware that will give my life a drastic twist.

Next day by 9.00 am I reached the hotel and went to see HR Dept head to ask about my office room. They said it will be ready in few hours. Then i went to Mr. Varma's office on the 30th floor. I should wish him luck for his future adventure right. But when i reached in front of the office the receptionist said that he has not arrived yet.

There was a little disappointment in me. I wanted to see that helpless look in his face which gives me some kind of satisfaction. Sighing, i headed towards the elevator to go the restaurant in the ground floor. I haven't had any food for dinner so i was feeling hungry now.

The lift arrived and doors opened, when i was entering a woman bumped into me. The force made her lose a step and she was about to fall. I held her both arms in my hand to steady her. "I'm so sorry." She yelled in panic. She composed herself and took a step away from me. She was beautiful. Her brown eyes looking at me, was filled with worry and embarrassment. She looked simple but elegant. She had long brown wavy hair, rosy cheeks and her full lips had a tint of pink.

I chuckled seeing her expression. "You should watch where you are going and maybe try to relax. You look dishevelled." I said.

"I'm sorry sir. I wasn't paying attention to where I was going." She replied politely.

"It's Okay, next time pay attention." I said and entered into the elevator. She was still looking at me with amusement. I felt a strong pull towards her. Her eyes never left mine until the elevator closed.
