Manan ff : Shining Armour

chapter 69(C)

Is this some kind of a sick joke.

It's...it's Dilip Patil.

I looked at him with wide eyes, no no this can't be true. Ayyaippa this isn't true right I'm dreaming, just dreaming.

"You shouldn't concentrate on others movement when you're pretending to be asleep" he said with a creepy smile on his face while his thumb caressed my knee making me wanna throw up.

This asshole is in front of me for real.

"Aren't you a pretty thing ?, let's just remove this" he said and removed the  plaster off my mouth. Damn ! It hurts like bitch. Nearly clouding my eyes with tears.

I still couldn't bring my mind together, this person after all these years is in front of me. The one who ..ra..raped Naira and killed her. Oh my god.

"I can see why Manik Malhotra is interested in you" I looked up at him to see him eyeing my cleavage due to crop top. Asshole.

I feel like I'm on display. I gritted my teeth as anger arouse through my veins. How many time have I killed this man in my mind ?. How many time have I tortured him in my mind ?. But now he is standing in front of me for real and I can't even form a word.

Wait a second, did he just take manik's name !! How the hell does he know manik ?

"Are you dumb or too afraid to speak ?" He asked with a nasty smirk on his face. Man! How can a person be this creepy ?.

I gritted my teeth. Its obvious that he doesn't recognize me and that's a plus point. How badly  my hands are itching to beat the shit out of him ? But sadly I can't act impulsively as he's way too bigger than me. But I need to get my shit together and answer back. You can do this Nandini.

"Neither , I'm just confused " I said giving him a hard stare.

"Ooo kitten can speak , not bad " he said caressing his stubble. Though he's more than 40 , still his facial features are same.

I rolled my eyes.

"As I can see even you can speak, tell me what the hell am I doing here " I said gritting my teeth. I don't understand why he kidnapped me when he doesn't even recognize me.

"You're kidnapped darling " he said with an amusement smirk.

"Oh shit Sherlock ! I can see that but why ?" I said trying hard not to remember those days when he raped Naira or when she died.

"Ahan ! Kitten got its claws ha, I like it and as far your answer is concerned it's all about the damn project " he said stepping near.

"Singhania's project " I voiced out loud.

No No this isn't true, manik wouldn't do this to me. If Dilip patil had anything to do with this project he would have told me right

"My life is at risk ...how am I even involved in this ??" I asked scratching my head.

"That what I asked him and got no answer " Cabir said giving ridiculous look.

Okay this is why manik was reluctant to reveal anything about his plan, even to Cabir. He knew Dilip patil was involved and he kept it to himself. I so want to kill him right now. I want to kiss him and then kill him.

"Oh you know about that and you should also be knowing that I'm Harshad's partner" he said with a smirk.

I starred at him wide eyed. He is Harshad's partner. Woah Ayyaippa ! Truly a small fucking world.

"I didn't know that nor I know who you are ? And why the hell did you kidnap me when you don't even know who I am " Ayyaippa what should I do to get out of here ?
