Chapter 33

Svetlana was not happy at how things were progressing. Jahnvi had separated her assets from Tej, and was going to start her own business venture. This was not good. 

"How are you Svetlana, darling?" Tej asked, faking normalcy

"How do you think Tej?" Svetlana answered

It was late evening and Tej had come to pay a visit to Svetlana as was his custom. 

"I thought you said things were going to change. That finally you were going to end these surreptitious visits, and get married to me officially. But looks like it was wrong of me to trust you. I think I have had enough." said Svetlana

"Svetlana, calm down. Its just a matter of a few months, Omkara won't last that long. He'll come begging back to be released from that contract, and then I can throw him and his mother out of our lives, and we can get married." said Tej, cajolingly 

"Well, it doesn't look like Jahnvi is waiting to be thrown out anymore. She might just end up leaving on her own." remarked Svetlana

"Either ways, Svetlana, we will get our freedom." said Tej

"Yes, but a high price. You and Jahnvi jointly own shares worth Rs. 500 crore, which are in your name. With Jahnvi separating, she will take away Rs. 250 Crores with her. Out of the remainder of your Rs 250 crores shares, I can claim only Rs. 125 Crores as your wife, after our marriage. That Jahnvi comes out the winner, and leaves you and me as losers." said Svetlana, barely controlling her anger.

"Svetlana, what are you suggesting?" asked Tej shrewdly. He knew Svetlana too well.

"I am suggesting that maybe we should get Jahnvi out of the way. If she isn't there, your shares will remain whole, and you won't lose half your worth." said Svetlana, smiling. 

"Have you lost your mind woman? I am not going to be complicit in causing Jahnvi any physical harm, just for money" said Tej angrily. "I am fine with my share being reduced to Rs. 250 crores. Jahnvi can take her property and do whatever she wants. We are not going to harm her, I'm telling you." and saying so, Tej left her apartment. 

Svetlana was a little stumped seeing the change coming over Tej, but she had expected this. Even last year, for some months, he had seemed to gravitate back to Jahnvi for incomprehensible reasons. 

Svetlana had to put her plan into action. She won't let Jahnvi, of all people, walk away with the sweet cash.

Omkara was waiting for Chulbul at their usual meeting place by the beach. Chulbul came rushing after a while, it seemed like he had just gotten off finishing the show.

  "Sorry Omkaraji,...I'm late" said Chulbul

"You don't have to apologize, the fact that you are showing so much faith in me and are willing to help me out, when we are essentially strangers, means a lot to me." said Omkara, with so much honesty that Gauri felt guilty about keeping the truth from him.

"So, lets get to some brainstorming, shall we?" said Gauri, eager to get away from the difficult topics.

"No, first I want to know about you. You are doing me a huge help, and I don't know anything beyond your name and your drama group. Tell me something about yourself." Omkara said

Gauri cursed herself internally. She was here only to help him and return the favor he did her in Bareilly. All this 'knowing each other' would undoubtedly cause a problem later. But there didn't seem anyway to get out of answering Omkara's questions, without making him suspicious. So she sighed and decided to narrate him her tale.
