" and the winner of youth icon of business industry award goes to none other then Ayaan Thakur, " loud claps throughout the hall.
With a smirk on his face Ayaan got up from his chair with his coat sleeves folded looking so hot with the hair studs falling in his forehead.
Many were jealous many were admiring and mostly many were afraid, why not? A man who can make your life turn upside down within twenty four hours is ofcourse a man to fear.
A name which holds a power in the business industry. A fear that creeps on everyone's face when they make an eye contact with him.
Ayaan took the award and came forward to talk on mic.
"I always try to understand that how can this thing in my hand can decide that I'm the winner?," Ayaan started to talk without any self introduction, his voice was so cold and husky which made people Shiver.
Ayaan continued speaking on the mic, exuding confidence and attitude.
"You see, this award is just a mere validation of what I already know. I am the epitome of success in this industry. My determination, my vision, and my unmatched skills have brought me to this stage today," Ayaan declared, his voice dripping with arrogance.
"But let me tell you, this is just the beginning. I won't stop here. I will conquer new heights, break boundaries, and leave my mark on this world. So, watch out, because Ayaan Thakur is here to stay!" Ayaan concluded, leaving the audience in fear.
Ayaan's words echoed through the hall, sending shivers down the spines of his enemies. They knew that challenging him would be a grave mistake.
Ayaan Thakur, a name that strikes fear in the business industry, not just due to his intimidating presence, but also because of the cunning tricks he employs to get what he wants.
Ayaan Thakur, the son of Prakash Thakur and Nyonika Roy, has a brother named Advik Fridrik Roy who resides in Germany with their mother, her boyfriend, and their half-sister, who is a sibling to both Ayaan and Advik.
Prakash and Nyonika got divorced when Ayaan was 12 and Advik was 10. Ayaan was deeply attached to his mother, but after the divorce, Nyonika gained custody of Advik, which shattered young Ayaan's heart.
Prakash, being occupied with running his company, struggled to handle the situation. He couldn't take care of Ayaan on his own, so they relied on babysitters.
However, Prakash loves his sons dearly and tries his best to spend time with Ayaan. Unfortunately, time alone isn't enough to teach his son about love and respect.
Ayaan hates his mother for leaving him and feels hurt that he wasn't important to her. He's jealous of his brother, but he knows it's not his fault. Nyonika, his mother, now has a 5-year-old daughter with her boyfriend Alexander, whom he loves very much.
Ayaan deeply loves his brother, half-sister, and his father. They mean everything to him.
Ayaan has gone to Germany to meet his brother and Joanna many time in name of business meet. And sometimes if he wanted to stay long and spend time with them then he takes a vacation their.
When ever he goes to Germany he finds his mother trying hard to talk with him she talks with him like he is a stranger to her she only ask formal questions, and he hates it.
He spends his time with Joanna and advik in his stay in Germany.
Joanna loves both the brothers equally but she is very possessive of her brother advik. They video call eachother when ever they want.
After reserving the award, Ayaan got in his car and headed home. On the way, he received a call from his younger brother, Advik.
A smile automatically spread across his face as he answered the call.
"Hey there, famous football player! What made you call me on your busy schedule?" Ayaan asked as he drove.
"Oh, come on bhai, I'm not as busy as you. And guess what?" Advik replied.
"What?" Ayaan asked, curious and slightly worried. Whenever Advik said something like this, it usually meant he had either done something mischievous or gotten into a fight with the football team.
"I'm at Mumbai's airport!" Advik's sentence made Ayaan park his car on the side of the road in shock.
"Tell me, what did you do that made you come to India, you little troublemaker?" Ayaan wasn't concerned about why Advik came to India, but rather what trouble he had gotten himself into, because Advik and trouble are practically synonymous.
"Well you know me better, but to know more information come and pick me up from the airport," he said and ended the call making Ayaan sigh. He turned his car and drove to the airport.
Ayaan goes to the airport to pick up his brother Advik.
As Advik spots his brother, he excitedly shouts, "Bhai!"
Ayaan sees him and smiles, but as Advik gets closer, Ayaan playfully punches him in the stomach.
"Damn bhai," not too hard but just enough to make Advik pretend to be dramatically hurt.
It's been almost three months since they saw eachother. Last time they saw eachother was on joanna's birthday.
Ayaan was having an important meeting but it was joanna's birthday, his princess's birthday so he cancelled his meeting and went to Germany to attend his princess 5th birthday.
"Now tell me what made you come to India?" Ayaan asks as he sat in his car along with Advik in the front passenger seat.
"Well..."
F L A S H B A C K
"Goal!" the opposite team shouts as they score, and Advik, frustrated, kicks the grass in the air.
The opposite team comments on how Advik is losing his temper, and they know that he's losing it too.
And just like that, Advik and his team lost the match. Advik was angry at himself for letting anger take over him.
He went to the changing room, and the opposite team was also there.
Advik ignored them and went towards his locker, ignoring the opposite team.
"Look who's here, the loser," the opposite team leader Mark comments.
"Poor guy, his mother's boyfriend is our owner, and his stepson is a loser. Frederick, do you want your daddy to help you?"
This was the last straw for Advik.
Losing control, Advik walked towards Mark and beat him. All the team members tried their best to make Advik stop, but no one could.
Finally, the owner of Mark's team, Alex, who is Advik's stepfather, and other officials came and stopped him.
After hours of meeting, the board decided to punish Advik. He walked into the board meeting where Mark and a few other players were also seated.
"So, Advik Frederick Roy, due to the violation of beating up the opposite team captain Mark Sebastian, we are suspending you from the football team for the next six months," they announced.
Advik has difficulty controlling his anger, especially when it comes to his mother's boyfriend. He completely loses it in those situations.
Advik chose to add "Frederick" to his name because he likes the German style, and his mother's name is Nyonika Roy. Unlike his elder brother, he decided not to keep his father's surname and instead kept his mother's surname, Roy.
After his parents' divorce, Advik always believed that his father was at fault. He thought that because of his father, he lost his father's presence and was separated from his brother. He also believed that his father was the reason why Alexander came into his life as his mother's boyfriend.
Alexander is now Nyonika's current boyfriend, and they are the parents of Joanna. They have been in love for a long time and are planning to get married soon.
Alexander is doing his best to be a good father to Advik, but Advik is not ready to accept him, at least as a human. Things have gotten worse since Alexander became the owner of the opposing team that Advik plays against.
This has only fueled Advik's hatred towards Alexander, and the opposing team has used this as a tool to distract him. However, despite all of this, Advik still loves his sister, mother, and of course, his big brother. They are the ones who keep him sane.
After getting suspended, Nyonika suggested Advik to stay with Ayaan, which he immediately agreed to. He decided to spend his time with his brother. Unfortunately, little Joanna couldn't come along as she has school.
"I want to see my big brother too!" Even her big, beautiful, cute crocodile tears didn't work. Joanna calls Ayaan "big brother" and Advik by his name.
F L A S H B A C K E N D S
"You really messed up, troublemaker," Ayaan exclaimed as Advik explained why he came here. Ayaan knew that it was nothing new, but getting suspended for this long was something different.
"But for how long? How long will you hate Alex? Look, I'm not a fan of Alex, but that man genuinely cares. He deserves a chance," Ayaan said, causing Advik to glare at his brother.
"Look who's talking! At least I have a reason to hate Alex. What about you? Do you hate our mom just because she divorced Dad?" Advik stated his point, causing Ayaan to grip the steering wheel.
Ayaan glared at Advik, silencing him. Advik realized that he had touched on something he shouldn't have, so he stayed quiet.
"Fine, anyways!"
Boom!
They crashed into something, or something crashed into them.
Advik turned to check on his brother. After confirming that they were both okay, Advik got out of the car followed by Ayaan.
When Ayaan got down he noticed that his brother started to flirt with a girl.
His eyes then moved to the girl next to the girl.
Ayaan was completely mesmerized by the girl standing in front of him.
She had an undeniable beauty that took his breath away. Her radiant smile, sparkling eyes, and graceful presence made him feel like he was in a dream.
Ayaan couldn't help but be captivated by her, unable to take his eyes off her. It was as if time stood still in that moment, and he couldn't help but feel a strong connection to her.
But he knows beautiful things are always dangerous he can't judge her just by beauty can he? He decided to come back to his cold self.
"Keep your sorries to yourself and pay for the damage," both the girls turned towards Ayaan.
"Ohh bhai, why so serious?" Adivk said, walking towards him to calm him down.
"Stut up, advik! You're new here, people do this to gain money. First, they wanted to dash and ask for money, and these women are no less than that," ayaan says with a cold voice.
"I swear if any more words come from your mouth, then believe me, it will be your last day on this earth. Who the f*ck are you to judge anyone? Did we say that we won't pay you? Or did we ask you to pay?" The girl says.
"Did your parents teach you how to talk with others?!"
"Look, miss, mind your tongue," Advik comes in between.
girl glared at Advik.
"Here," the voice made everyone turn towards the person. The beautiful woman, forwarded a check and smiled towards ayaan.
"I think this will be enough for the damage that happened? If it isn't, then here is my card. Contact me," she said, staring directly into ayaan's eyes.
Ayaan was a little awestruck, seeing her talk to him in such a gentle voice
He had to accept that for a brief second, he was distracted by her beauty and calm personality.
"Naina? Really?" The other angry girl jumped back into the conversation.
Naina, he likes it, he likes the name.
"Now it's your turn," Naina stated, leaving the cold man confused.
"You need to apologize for your rude words and behavior. Yes, there may be people like that out there, but you should know that not everyone is after money. Fortunately, we are not, so you're in safe hands," Naina said.
"Well, it seems like you're not the type to apologize, huh? No worries, but I do have a suggestion for you," Naina continued.
"That tongue of yours needs some treatment," she said, grabbing her scooter and heading back to Advik.
"I'm sorry about the accident and the words my friend said,"
"I am not," said the angry girl, hopping onto the scooter and riding away, leaving both guys staring.
"India sure has beautiful ladies, doesn't it, Bhai?" Advik tried to get his brother's attention, but Ayaan was still lost in thought, watching the girls go.
"Bhai? Bhai? Mr. Ayaan Thakur?! Wake up!" Advik yelled, snapping his older brother back to reality.
"That angry bird is mine," Advik said, glaring at him, thinking that his brother was impressed by her.
"Don't worry, I was thinking about something else, and no, I'm not interested in anyone. What made you even think that you would meet them again? Mumbai is a big city," Aryaan says and gets in the car followed by his brother.
"Yeah, but that card in your hand will make it easier," he said and grabbed the card from his brother's hand. Ayaan was about to get it back, but Advik's question stopped him.
"What do you want it for? You said that you were not interested?" Advik teased his brother but shut his mouth when he saw him glare.
"Okay, I'm shutting it," he said and turned towards the front.
"Naina, " it rolled out of his tongue like honey drop in wisper
