Hello!

"Also, I forgot to tell you one thing. " He said and I looked at him with teary eyes.

"Your dearest sister passed out and immediately had to get operated. " My eyes widened at his words and I got up immediately.

"Nimmi, where is she? How is she? What happened? " I asked panicking.

"Nothing much, operation is over and she's in coma now. " He said in a very casual tone as if talking about the weather.

"What? When did this happen? I need to go to her. " Before I could run he held my wrist and pulled me to himself.

"It's my house, you can't leave without my permission. " He told me and I looked at him in disbelief.

"My sister needs me and you cannot stop me. " I yelled at him, trying to wriggle out of his grip.

"The operation charged a bomb, you know right? And I've paid for it. " He told me and leaving my hand.

"And since she's in coma now, they'll charge a lot of money everyday. I've paid for today, but what about tomorrow and day after tomorrow and after that? What will happen to your sister and her treatment? Can you afford it Miss. Murthy? " He asked and I looked at him blankly.

"Of course not, am I right or am I right? " He asked tilting his head and I looked down breathing deeply.

"Go, go to your sister now, she needs you. Go see her, she's just alive till today, tomorrow when the hospital staff will throw her out, she won't be able to survive. " "No. " I yelled immediately and a smirk came on his lips.

"Yelling will do no good to you and your sister, now what are you waiting for? Go. " He mocked and I looked at him helplessly.

"What? Why are you still standing? A minute ago you wanted to leave because your sister needs you, didn't you? " He mocked again and I looked as tears came out of my eyes.

"To be very honest Miss. Murthy, she doesn't needs you, she needs money to be alive, the money that you don't have. " He told me and I closed my eyes.

"Now what will you do? Where will you go for help? The charitable trust that you had applied in? " He asked and I looked at him in shock. How does he know every freaking thing?

"I don't think they'll be able to afford such a costly treatment. " He said faking a sympathetic face.

"Chacha chachi? " He asked mocking.

"No no no, they are middle class people, I don't think they'll be able to help you save your sister's life. " He said shaking his head.

"Aditya Mudhaliar? The guy you met that day or that Rahul, your lover boy? " He asked and I wanted to punch him.

"I don't think so, I mean again they are both middle class fellows, so now who will you go to? " He asked faking pity making me cry even more at my helplessness.

"I know who can help, me. " He pointed his index finger at himself.

"The one and only Manik Malhotra." He stated with a wicked smirk.

"But why will I help you when I hate you so much? " He asked faking innocence.

I looked down again and wiped my tears.

"What do you want from me? " I asked directly, looking at him.

I was fed up already!

"You know Miss. Murthy? I really like this thing about you, you prefer coming to the point directly. So I have an offer, that can help you save your sister's life. " He told me shrugging.

"And what is it? " I asked him and he looked at me raising his eyebrows.

"Not like this Miss. Murthy, you are in need not me, don't ask like you are doing a favor on me. " He told me and I exhaled deeply.

"What is it Mr. Malhotra, please tell me. I really need your help. " I pleaded and he made a face shaking his head.

"Not like this Miss. Murthy, this is no fun. Beg for it. " He asked smirking.

"I beg you Mr. Malhotra, please it. " I pleaded and he clicked his tongue unsatisfied.

"No no, not like this. Do it properly, get on your knees, forward your hands and then beg, that's how it's done. It's so basic. Do it now. " He asked and I looked at him in disbelief.

"Oh don't give me that look. Just do it. " He asked and I closed my eyes breathing deeply.

Sitting on my knees, I forwarded my hands in front of him for my sister.

"I beg you Mr. Malhtora please help me. " I begged and now he looked satisfied. I broke down in tears and held my forehead.

"That's how you do it. Good job." He smirked and held my hands before making me get up.

"Now, here's the offer, I'll take care of all the expenses of your sister's treatment but in return you'll have to do what I'll ask you to do. No questions asked, no answers given, you'll just have to do it." He said and even though I had no option but I was still hesitant before saying yes.

"We don't have the whole day for you to decide. " He said and I looked at him.

This offer is risky but my sister's life is more precious.

"I'm willing to do this Mr. Malhotra." I told him and he looked happy and satisfied.

"Great, you'll get the contract tomorrow. " He said and I gave him a nod.

"Now I think you should head to see your sister because in her case, we never really know whenโ€”" "Please Mr. Malhotra. " I cut his sentence in middle and he shrugged.

"Fine I'm not saying anything, now take the driver with you and I'll see you tomorrow in office at sharp 7 am." He told me and without wasting another second, I ran outside the small room, to his room and then outside.

The house was huge and I was confused as to where the main door was.

"Take the stairs and go down then walk straight, you'll find the door. " I heard him speaking and followed his instructions but I was met with a dead end instead.

Frowning, I looked around and saw him coming from behind, smirking.

"Oops, may be I gave you wrong directions, I'm really bad at giving directions. " He faked guilt and I looked at him in disbelief.

"My sister Mr. Malhotra! Please have mercy on me for once. " I pleaded with tears again forming in my eyes.

"Follow me. " He said after shaking his head and finally I got the main door.

I ran out and met with his driver who took me to the hospital in his car.

The whole drive I was dying deep down. I can't believe all this is happening with me. What have I done so wrong? I just hope Nimmi gets consciousness soon enough, I just want her to be alright.

We reached the hospital and I ran to the reception where I got to know that Nalini was still in ICU. Chacha Chachi were sitting outside the ICU and I straight way went to them.

"Nimmi?" I asked and they looked at me.

They got up and Chachi immediately hugged me, crying.

"She just passed out, we were in the train. Your Boss got us here and told us that you've been sent out for work. He even got Nalini treated but..." Chachi began crying hysterically and I just wanted to see Nimmi.

"Can I see her? " I asked and they pointed towards the ICU.
