Abhor & Amour

CHAPTER - 2

Singhania House

New Mumbai

India

Akshay Singhania - The business machine, recieved a phone call from his mother and she was sprouting some nonsense about meeting his potential bride. As long as she does not stretch the issue to marriage its fine. If she wants she can scrouge every single woman on planet till she does not ask him to meet her everything is fine.

After ending the call, his secretary entered the room and informed him of his upcoming meeting with Mr. Rehman Abdulla- Owner of Rehman Oil Inc.- one of the biggest oil field in Dubai. 

Akshay owns many oilfields in Arab Countries but till now Dubai was only restricted to construction, hotels & resorts, finance, advertisement & manufacturing. He wants Singhania Oil to be untouchable, so he needs to acquire this deal.

When you are rich everyone scamper around you like bees on honey and this is what he enjoy. It is totally opposite when you are poor. It is a lesson which he has earned very early in life. When everyone follows his order in a blink of eye- it gives him a sense of power and he thrives on the same. He does not care whether it is out of fear or respect.

His secretary again reminded him of his meeting. He would have fired her if she was not so good at her work.

Meeting Room

Singhania House

All the other interested buyers in the oilfield had decided to negotiate at Singhania House. 

Everyone present there was aware that it will be Akshay Singhania buying it but they just want to try it for their self- esteem. Some older businessmen were not able to digest their defeat in previous bids.

All were waiting for THE AKSHAY SINGHANIA and he did arrive in all his glory followed by his secretary, security chief and CFO- Singhania oil. Akshay Singhania was way too good looking with hieght of above 6", silver eyes, aristocratic nose, high cheekbones and razor sharp jaw. He was what you call the epitome of beauty.

Without greeting anyone he sat on the head of table and signalled his secretary to start the meeting.

The best priced offer till now was $700 million dollars and when it came to him - he stated $250 million dollars.

Seeing the shocked faces of all the delegates he generously offered an explanation. "I am not finished yet. -directly addressing Rehman- I will let you have 20% ownership for upcoming 2 years. 20% ownership means a significant part in profit of Singhania Oil, what say, Rehman?" 

Akshay was aware he did not want to sell full field as he wants to retain some shares in his family legacy.

"Yes, I agree. In 2 years if I managed to buyback it from you at future market price will you give it back to me?"

"If then, yes." 

Bloody fool businessmen blinded by emotions, this idiot does not even know that 20% shares will only fetch him $200 million dollars of profit in 2 years and thus making him being unable to buy it from him.

Once something is his: he does not lose it at any cost. His 20% shares will be acquired at the end of 2 years by Akshay that was given.
