She had caught feelings for some of her "clientele", like she likes to call them because they are customers to her but those feelings can't measure to the future she foresee for herself so she leaves them within the blink of an eye when she sights a bigger fish. Some have suggested marriage to her and she knows that is them trying to ground her so she flees far far away.

Her thirst for wealth keeps moving higher and men's thirst for her grows as well. She has never gone to a man, they mostly meet for business and become blown away and she's a master in keeping things low key, so Arshad is her first here too.

With him, she is willing to drop all her weapons and dream of a happily ever after. So, enough of tangling with trust fund babies that can't bite a finger if put into their mouths. It's time to be called Mrs. Arshad Tambari.

.....

"It's taking a toll on her but she won't admit it", Arshad chided.

"That's because she likes you, she only wants the best for you", Laura answered through the screen clipping her nails out with a nail cutter.

   "I'm also looking out for her, it may affect her health-

  The office telephone snatched his attention from the screen, he excused his sister and answered the call.

  "Yes..... Let him in", he said and returned to his sister.

   "I should leave you to attend to...... to work", she raised her hands surrendering.

"Hello Mister COO", his brother said cooly entering into the office.

  "Hey. Is that my bruh? " Laura asked.

"Of course it's me", Aryan said and walked behind the mahogany table, facing the screen and smiling whole heartedly.

   "You've forgotten your brother"

"How can I? " she said and shifted slightly adjusting her sitting position "It's your nephew here", she points to her stomach "He's making me forget everything".

   "Hey Champ! Make mummy forget everything but not your favorite uncle, okay".

Arshad just rolled his eyes while Laura laughed out loud.

   "How's the contest at home? ", Laura brought back the topic.

"It's getting hawwt", Aryan hover over the table "Mummy said they've started playing dirty. So much craziness to win my brother ", he raised his both hands up dramatically as if praying to God.

  
   "God. Mum needs to do this for me, but in my case she should leave all the girls for me. I want a harem full of women".

  "Typical you" his brother gave him a pat at the crook of his neck while he scratches it making faces. Laura laughs to her fill enjoying their banter.

   "Where's Hinaya? " Arshad asked out of the blue.

  "Obviously in school", Aryan replied.

"Why are you keeping Baba and Hilal to yourself. You have your family with you let our people go".

   "I'll like to keep them for eternity but it's your mother that wants them pinned down here".

"why? ", the two brothers asked at the same time.

  "She said and I quote I do not want any girl seducing my husband, you know men when they are old they get enticed easily by young girls and the girls are so hungry for money that they don't mind hooking up with their grandfather's agemate, so unfortunate". Before she was done, the two brothers were laughing hysterically.
