ASR stood infront of Narsimha Raayala buttoning his jacket and looked at the mike before meeting the king's eyes saying "I'm just here to sign the contract for the pharmaceuticals if it's done I'll be on my way".

His words made the whole situation awkward making Raja Chandra Pratap Gupta shake his head and completed his drink in one go as he mumbled "Tell me! why are we friends again" looking at Deva who smirked.

"Because we are weird and make people awkward" Deva answered looking at the exchanges between ASR and Narsimha Raayala.

The king turned to the royal secratariat nodding at him making him go inside and bring the documents and the royal stamp on a silver tray and stood infront of ASR and the king forwarding his hands with the silver tray.

ASR took the pen and signed the papers then the king was about to sign the contract papers when ASR took the papers from the tray saying "It's not you who should sign these Mr.Raayala" making the king and everyone confused.

"The contract is between the king and you Mr.ASR" The ex-king Veerabhadra Raayala reminded walking forward with his stick.

"You are right and the king himself is going to sign our deal" saying ASR walked towards Deva handing him the papers making Deva look at the papers.

"I'll offer you better deal ASR. Give me the rocketry deal and I shall give you Veerapuram" Deva offered making ASR expression dark which made Deva smirk.

"You drive a hard bargain your majesty. Fine! I'll give you what you need" ASR said making Deva shake his hand.

"What the hell is going on?" Veerabhadra Raayala raised his voice.

"Right! You see your son the so called king is no longer a king. His reign has ended didn't it?" ASR said.

"Yes! 20 years but it's not ended because the next in line to the throne is not of age yet" Narsimha Raayala explained.

"Prince? But the next in line to the throne is already a king by birth and age" ASR said.

"Listen Mister the next in line to the throne is my grandson Maharudra Raayala who's still nineteen years old and not only that you are here as our guest so don't interfere in our family matters and call someone unknown the king" Veerabhadra Raayala warned.

"I'm not. But if it's about any deals of my company I'll make sure everything is alright and in order" ASR said and continued "Tell me your majesty why is your second son the next in line to the throne when the real heir is alive?"

Everyone widened their eyes while Veerabhadra Raayala laughed out loud "Stop joking Mr.ASR. If he's really alive he'd have contacted us long back unlike waiting for you to disclose" trying to dismiss the topic.

"May be he has a threat from your family" ASR stated making everyone whisper.

"Listen Mr. ASR stop talking rubbish. If my son is alive I would've bought him here and made him a king already" Narsimha Raayala said a bit sadly thinking back to his first son.

"See! This is what I am taking about. Are you usually blind or don't care about your family? Just by looking at Deva I can tell that he's your son and you...you just tried to turn blind!" ASR turned serious making everyone look at Deva shocked.

"What nonsense are you talking? He can never be a heir and the king. He's not my family" Veerabhadra Raayala roared.

Deva laughed out loud but it has a dangerous edge to it "See. I told you we would need proof didn't I? I know this family would do anything to get rid of me" making everyone confused.

"Prem.." Deva called making Prem walk forward and took out papers from the file showing it to everyone.

"This is the birth certificate of Mr.Deva and the adoption certificate issued from Asha foundation twenty years back. Finally,this is the DNA results of Mr.Raayala and my boss which proves that he's the biological son and the heir of Raayala family" Prem explained showing the certificates one by one to everyone.

"There is no way, you are going to get anything of ours. That result and certificates might be fabricated" Veerabhadra Raayala yelled "You won't be the king until you prove that you are really the dead prince and if you are gonna be a king you should be married in the first place".

"And why do you think that I'm not married?" Deva smirked making everyone look at him confused even his employees.

"Oh! New drama again? Fine when did you get married? Why didn't you bring your wife with you?" Veerabhadra Raayala asked but still seemed panicked.

"He did bring her" They heard a voice and turned towards the entrance to see Siva looking pale with her arm in Noel's.
