The four of them greeted the guests before walking to the king and queen who smiled looking at them and greeted the father son duo politely who returned their greetings before Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta said "We're just talking about you. Let's go and dance" to which Hima frowned but nodded putting her palm in his.

Once on the dance floor he put his left arm on her back as she held his shoulder with her right hand gently asking "What were you all discussing?"

"You'll know soon" Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta replied before twirling her on the dance floor slowly and moved with the song lyrics.

"It seems like you already knew Deva before you came here" Hima stated more than asked.

"We went to same school in Texas" Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta answered making her say "You never mentioned that".

"You never asked and there are a lot of things that I didn't mention before" Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta stated making her nod.

"The paternity results are out" Hima informed.

"And?" Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta asked making her nod "It's true, you and Siva are related. I don't know how but that's your job to find out".

"I already started my investigation and soon will be meeting Ms.Sivatmika's family" Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta said.

"It's just.. don't hurt her much, her family is so messed up already" Hima softly said making him search her eyes before slowly nodding.

The hall suddenly turned cold and everyone turned silent as if someone commanded them and heard footsteps and turned their heads in the direction of the sound to see Deva walking inside in a suit like a model from one of those famous model magazines.

"Holy shit!" Hima gasped making Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta roll his eyes at his friend's dramatic entrance from the shadows as the spotlight followed as he walked inside.

"Brother..." Gayatri said happily and side hugged Deva making him pat her shoulder.

"How is Siva?" Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta asked.

"Noel shifted her home. There's a change in her condition but it's not enough to say when she'll be up" Deva explained.

"If it isn't for her we don't know what would've happened to our Hima. We'll always be in debt of her" Rani Meenakshi Devi said making the king nod.

"I hope she gets well soon" The king said it like a prayer making the others nod and continued "Thankyou so much for coming. I thought you wouldn't make it today".

"Oh! I wouldn't miss it even if it's the end of the world you see" Deva mocked making them a little confused.

" You had to make that dramatic entry?" Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta asked as he stood beside Deva who's alone after greeting the royal family.

"Don't get jealous now dear friend" Deva said and clinked his glass with the prince and drank the Champaign in one gulp.

"Jealous? Anyone could tell I'm the most handsome among us both" Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta smirked and took a sip of his drink.

"And yet I'm the most eligible bachelor am I not?" Deva joked as he looked at Hima continued "So..you and Hima huh?"

"Seems like it. But I'm sure she'll hate me once she knows that I'm on your side" Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta said making Deva look at his branded wrist watch which has diamond inside the dial with the arrows attached to it.

"Have you turned blind in love that you are forgetting yourself?" Deva snorted.

"Well! Some of us actually care for the people we love unlike you" Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta pointed giving a look to Deva who inturn glared at him.

"You shouldn't involve in my personal matters" Deva reminded him warning clearly evident in his voice.

The noise from the mike made the both of them face forward to see the royal secretariat holding a mike and smiled lightly before starting his speech "Good evening everyone. Firstly! I would like to thank his royal highness for the graceful charity event arranged tonight for the welfare of the people" making everyone clap looking at the king who nodded once while he continued "Now, I would like to invite his royal highness to speak few words".

The king walked forward and took the mike from the royal secretariat while he looked over at everyone once before strated talking "Firstly, thankyou all again for making this event such a big success. The donations reached forty million and it wouldn't have been possible without you all. But tonight is not just about the charity. As you all know there were rumours that the Rayala groups is collaborating with the ASR empire. I wanted to clear that it's not just a rumor and we are going to be partners in the pharmaceutical industry" which made everyone clap as the Raayala family has a proud look on their faces.

"Now I invit Mr.Agasthya Singaraju to talk a few words" The king invited making everyone curiously look around for the king of the business world who keeps political, industrial and economical power in his fist playing the people with his single sign.

The hall turned dark and suddenly the spotlight landed on the entrance to see a person in the suit with his face void of any expression as he looked at the king in the eyes and walked forward towards him as everyone looked at him as if they are seeing a god.
