Obsession

Chapter 21

The incident of Ishan's betrayal was talk of the palace for the past four weeks and now the arrangement of Shubman and Sara's Sangeet was going on the whole palace was decorated with flowers, curtains and the expensive candles but this day was going to be long, Shubman's office room was in a mess there were several files on his table he was arranging them , Shubman's white shirt and waist coat were crunched as he was working constantly without any break

"Mayank call Sara here..." Shubman said as he puts the arranged files on the table and mayank lefts the office ofcourse he too didn't get any rest because Shubman will always send him to collect informations , It's been like ages since Shubman has seen his Ishan and for him this was a torture but soon it'll be end to all , a knock disturbed his thoughts but Shubman smiles looking at Sara who was scared but masked her fear by a confident smile

"you've called me here ...do you have to tell me something before our marriage" Shubman chuckles at her bold behaviour, he stands up from his seat and lights up his cigar half sitting at the edge of the big wooden table of his office

"first you should sit down because the things I am gonna show you will may snatch your consciousness" Shubman's voice was raspy and deep he didn't sleep well for weeks and the longing feeling for Ishan wasn't helping either, Sara sits on the visitor chair and Shubman hands over her files

" wha...how... how did you get this all " Sara's World crashes in front of her eyes as she reads the files , those files contain every single evidence about the black business her family and she herself runs , they were literally selling their motherland in the hands of the Britishers and if this information leaked maybe the Britishers will forgive them but the people of India will never it will be a shame

"how is the gift of our marriage Sara Tendulkar...." Shubman said sarcastically as he puffs out the smoke from the half finished Cigar , Sara was trembling in anger she stands up banging ger hands over the table

"what.....what do you want from me " Shubman smirks at her words and hands over her a letter, Sara looks at the letter and takes it again she was shocked

" Naman Dev Deshmukh, the prince of Maharashtra he asked me to break off our engagement because he loves you" Shubman said and sara now understand what Shubman wants, it was a bigger game of politics that Sara wasn't able to notice, Maharashtra the biggest port market of India being in a good relationship with this powerful state will make Shubman more powerful than he is right now , Sara chuckles

"huh... I have seen many players but you, you are always ontop of them I thought you'd be restless after losing your love but no , you started to prepare your cards and now that you've showed me your true cards let me tell tou one thing Shubman I was just a helper the real player is still playing " Sara said a warning tone but Shubman's just smiles

"No matter who is the real player is at the end I am the winner, Shubman Gill is the King who dominates " Shubman said looking at Sara who was smiling at the her loss but was happy that now she didn't have to chase a emotionless beast

"Go pack your things and go back to Chandigarh, Naman will talk to your father you have to accept him and I will reject you as now me and Naman are business partners , and don't worry your father is king first he won't argue much this game will end smoothly.... you just have to play along " Shubman's words were true the politics is much more important than a mere marriage she didn't know how and when this Naman guy fall for her but this guy is the prince of a powerful state that no one can reject

" I am happy we didn't get married, you are cunning so i am and we will actually just held meetings not feelings ........I hope you'll live with your love happily and thanks for giving me a chance " Sara said with a smile and hurriedly left the office room, Shubman smiles viciously and smashed the cigar into the smasher bowl

" Dumb bitch..." Shubman smirks looking at the files poor Sara didn't have any idea what will Shubman do after she will left for Chandigarh, Naman really loves Sara and will protect her with his life because he is capable of doing that but Shubman also has to make sure that Sara's chapter will be closed permanently

"Mayank gave this file to Commander Rohit Sharma after three days and made sure that only he would get this letter , take this too it's my letter I've written the instructions about what he has to do you just gave those files to him " Mayank nodes who was standing infront of door all this time

"Now now let's prepare for the drama..."

" I can't believe it, Sara cancelled the wedding.." Lakhwinder said as he sits on the sofa of the royal family hall where only the members of family were allowed, Keart sits beside him consoling him

"It's okay, she said that she doesn't love Shubman and wanted to marry Naman Dev Deshmukh, you know I think it's good just think if she would marry our son and then cheat on him how shameful it will be for our family" Keart said as Lakhwinder was still upset because of the whole situation

"Oho please leave this all, Papa don't panic and get yourself sick please" Shahneel said with a worried tone she was standing beside the sofa where her parents were sitting, Shubman was just looking at them he was feeling sad about his father's disappointment but now he has to plan about the next step he will take, Shubman comes closer to his father and sat on his knees infront of him taking his hands on his

" Did I failed as a son..." Lakhwinder gasps and firmly grabbs Shubman's hands and looks at him with all the love he had for his son who has been always perfect prince, son and human Lakhwinder loves Shubman more than his own life

"Never....you can never fail..in any subjects of life my son you are my pride my everything " Shubman smiles sadly and hugs his father's waist as he was still on his knees, Lakhwinder smiles and hugs his son Keart and Shaneel also hugs Lakhwinder and Shubman by side

"Oye di uth ja menu saas ni aa rhi.." Shubman complains making everyone laugh as they broke the family hug and Shubman looks at his small family with a smile on his face and he was determined to add his Ishu in this small world of his

"Muma Papa, I want a break.... I want to go on a tour " Shubman said and Lakhwinder nodes as he understands that Shubman really needs a break his son has constantly been suffering from the people and work

"Ofcourse you can take a break, but yes bring mayank with you please " His father requested as Shubman smiles and nodes , he left the royal hall when his father and mother started to joke about random things to forget about the drastic change that occurs today, but his naive family was unaware of his evil deeds

"Mayank prepare the car tomorrow, I will drive it alone and you, you will do what I've told you" Shubman said as he reaches the corridor ordering Mayank who was following him and stops at the door of Shubman's room, Shubman walks in his room and opens a drawer taking out the silver payal that he has keep with care

" I am coming for you my love, and this time i will close every single door that can make you leave me, it may hurt you a little but trust me it'll be fine soon " Shubman smirks and kisses the payal which jiggles in melody he keeps the payal inside the drawer again and then looks at the table where there was photos of Kishan family

"Pranav panday , Shuchitra panday , Raj Pandey hmmm... it's going to be a little hard I think but it'll be fun " Shubman looks at photos and throw them on the table only one photo was in his hands which was Ishan's his eyes were filled with a dark need of Ishan's presence his eyes were predatory and furious

"I will have to cage you now my love..."
