FAMILY COMES FIRST

 

 

Anirudh was a rserved  person and after the rude behviour from Anjali and Philip he became aloof , distant and avoided everyone ,  never disclose anything , But  David's frequent visits and the disguised men asking for Anirudh's wife ...  made Neel and Sumit curious ....

 

Crown court .... 

 

Philp  came for his own submission when he heard  Donna Acharjee ....  talking to one of the jury , she was taking Anirudh's name . Philip couldnot stop but eavesdrop  what they were discussing . 

 

Philip drove directly to Davids chamber , he stormed inside . David ws with a client , both of them looked towards the open door Philip was red and having difficulty in breathing ...  David picked up the glass of  water and helped him sit on the extra chair 

 

After some time when the client left , David came and took the seat near Philip , he looked  relaxed ,as compared to when he first reach here . 

 Before David can speak .... " tell me everything ....  from the start ..." Philip demanded , leaning back  on the sofa ,with eyes closed . David told everything , about Anu and her false case , he also made Philip  aware of Donna and her reach out . 

 

" Donna  Acharjee   ?   ....  I think , I  can handle her , took her down in many cases , just let me help you , Anirudh is family , not less than a son , just let me in ." David was more than happy . Philip was one of the best and a senior  ,and to have him in the case  means half battle won . 

 

 

Donna was very happy with the progress in her clients case , the jury told Anirudh to produce his wife ....  if she was still alive . Anirudh clenched his fist in anger how dare they call his wife to face this shame , he tried all the ways , but the only way out of this mess was to produce Runi , which he will never do .... never .  

 

 

Anu look  full of innocence .... 

On the first day of her appearance Anu fainted when Anurudh was describing the scene , infront of the jury .  Anirudh looked at her and smiled , remembering how he was fooled many a times with her acts . 

 

Today was their third  appearance ....  and the town of media  was aware of the hot topic that was going inside the  Court room ...  They left no way out ... waiting for the billionaire to come out .

 

First it was Anu and her  lawyer Donna , they just stepped out of the court building ,  climbimg down the stairs , a dozen of journalist with camera rushed towards them . Donna never was a fan of paparazi , she reminded Anu again and again ...  not to look up , not to answer any of their questions . 

 

 Donna pulled her along avoiding as much as she can , to reach the police escort and put away Anu safely inside the van , but to her surprise ,  Anu broke down infront of the whole media , there was like hundreds of flash lights ....  capturing the scene ,  ....   a helpless younger sister  crying for her lost sister ...  or feared dead . 

 

Anirudh and David was watching all these from above the building through the closed window ,Anu's act made it more difficult for Anirudh to come out . They thought to wait for sometime , with a hope that the media leaves them alone .

 

But no ....  they were still waiting for the  most intrigued   handsome , billionaire under thirty . 

 

Anirudh went out ....  as there was no other way but to face them ....  he looked no less than a model in his black suit ... his rayban was a compliment  that hid his dark circles , his jaws were sharper  now , lost some weight and sleep  in this past week ...  because wifey was not here .  Everyone knows hat he was a reserved person ...  knows that he was married ,  it was an arranged marriage ...  but no one have a  single  photograph of his wife .... no name nothing .... 

 

Anirudh took  her to only those family parties where the media takes no interest . He was ready to accept any punishment and fine , but never bring his Runi to face all these vultures . 

 

Media went crazy , all of them rushed towards the  debonair ......

"  Mr Anirudh ....  can you tell us something about the case ...  or atleast about your missing wife ".

" Mr  Billionaire ...  is it true  that you had an affair with your own sister in law '

" Please tell us something about about your secret affaIr ..." . 

 

David was correct and Anirudh was thankful that he hired some bodyguards ....  

 

His body guards made way for him to reach his  latest  Tesla  Y  .... otherwise  passing  through these paparazzi was next to impossible , one of his guards opened the door for him , David went inside with Anirudh ...   The  driver started as soon as one of the guards entered the front seat . Other followed then in a different car , The flash from their canon  was unstoppable ....

 

" Anirudh ....  you became a celebrity from a businessman ...  " David chuckled 

 

" Now I'm more determined , I'll not bring Runi here ...  she better  in her own safe heaven . " Anirudh looked out of the dark glasses , some of them were stll running after his ride with camera ....  

 

 

His home was not safe either , a number of journalists were seen outside , some were taking photographs of his villa ....  when his Tesla came  to a halt , just minute before the iron gates open ....   flashes  of camera and their knocking on the black glass window was a scary scene . 

 

Anirudh don't know , if he must inform about all these happenings to Runi and his own  parents , he miss all of them ....  specially his Pari , but his nights are only for Runi , her dreams and  their long talks .

 

Anirudh calls her everynight , talks for hours , tells her everything what he did from morning till night ...
