Siva sat on the couch as Rani Meenakshi Devi bought the taambulam with a new saree on it and put kumkuma on Siva's forehead and applied gandham on both sides of jaw line and Siva took the free end of the saree she wore and held it in her both hands as the queen handed the taambulam.
Siva got up and touched the queen's feet as she blessed throwing a few akshintalu on her head "Seegrameva kalyana praptirastu" making Siva groan and stand up where all the ladies laughed whenever they saw Siva's expression during the marriage topic.
"Gayatri the day after tomorrow is an auspicious day so it's better if you start the marriage works soon. We'll take our leave then" Deva said politely and gave a namaste before walking out followed by the guys and Siva. Before going out he once again turned to look at Hima who widened her eyes and turned around as Deva walked towards the car as she smiled to herself.
"Uff.." Siva sighed and leaned her head back onto the seat making the guys look at her "I don't understand why everyone was eating my brain today" which made Prem and Noel chuckle as Prem asked "Why did you change the dress? Did you spill something?"
"No since it's a traditional festival we've to wear traditional clothes and attend pooja if not ammavaaru will not bless you with a nice husband " she quoted the aunty's words making the guys chuckle at her antiques as she fell back on the seat tired.
She started taking her earrings slowly as Prem was driving the car towards villa when Noel said "But you look beautiful in this dress so there is perk to changing it don't you think?" which made Siva nod as Prem raise his eyebrow at Noel.

"Did you check the equipment? Are there any burned one?" Deva asked making Noel nod answering "I did but there was no large damage to them so it's fine" making Siva say "You are hurt and had to do all the work sorry I should've been there".
"Who asked you to go then?" Deva countered making her look at him saying "I went so my boss wouldn't be low infront of the invitee" and leaned her head to the glass window making Prem say "Deva you really need to stop being angry towards her" as he stopped the car at the villa after a few minutes.
"She's asleep" Noel said and clicked a picture of hers making Prem say "What are you doing idiot?" making Noel shrug as Deva suddenly raised his voice "Ms.Siva wake up" startling her and jolted up in her seat and looked around to see the car stopped and Deva getting out calming herself.
After freshening up everyone came down to see Prem arranging bowls out of a carriage box as Deva asked "What's all this?" making Prem smile and say "You can't cook daily after your shift you'll be tired so I decided to bring a carrier from the hotel" which made them nod and took their seats.
"Hmm...nice work Prem" appreciating Prem she munched on her food making him smile looking at her tired face saying "You really are exhausted girl" making her nod sadly as she said "I have something to tell you guys" gaining the guys attention.
"I think it's someone from palace who planned the fire accident in the factory" Siva said making them look at each other's faces then at her as she continued "When I went to change I heard someone outside the window speaking to someone about the fire accident and bringing all the documents related to the boss".

"Have you seen him?" Deva asked making her shake her head as she said "No the window was locked and the voice was low but it was someone old" which made Deva think a bit and say seriously "You better stay away from that palace and do the work alloted to you" before getting up to wash his hands.
"I know you don't trust me but atleast let help in things I can help you" Siva said turning towards him which made him say "There is no need of that" as he washed his hands making her angry "May be you should put your ego aside and let a girl help you or are you embarrassed because I found out it was not a fire accident but a planned one".
"There is no ego in it do you understand? Just don't involve yourself and this is my order as your boss" Deva strictly warned walking towards the stairs but stopped when he heard "You seem like you really care but you don't you are scared because something will happen to someone because of you" making him pause.
"May be you should put your imagination aside and think to stay alive atleast for your so called loving family" Deva snapped making her throw the glass at him which he caught in his left hand before it could hit him which made the guys widen their eyes.
"Low blow BOSS" gritting out she went upstairs to her room in anger and shut the door loudly making the guys cringe at the sound as they looked at their boss who put the glass on the tea poy hardly before going to his room.
