Chapter 17
Days after her aunt's birthday, she kept to herself, even when not attending classes, primarily worried she could not keep her hands off him. How much of a conflict her mind and body were in was unbelievable. Despite being perpetually pissed about her situation, it was hard not to feel the pull toward him. It almost felt like she constantly felt his eyes on her, but the more she thought about it, the more she imagined it all.
Aadhya pulled herself out of her thoughts as she sat beside him in the car. All she was told was she had to accompany him for a meeting. Like every other time, he didnât tell her where they were headed like he didnât trust her. She was on a mission to get him out of her life and the region, but she had no idea how. Other than getting him to break the contract rules.
If he thought she had a way other than what she was accused of earlier in the week, and thatâs why he wouldnât trust her, she needed to figure a way. âWhere are we headed?â she asked, and he looked up from his phone. She wondered how much coverage he had with what looked like a satellite phone.
âTo a clan meeting.â
She was a bit taken aback that he quickly offered the information. âWhy am I going to this one and not to the other meetings?â
He looked at her for a long moment. âHow do you know I have had other clan meetings?â
She didnât, and it was a wild assumption that he had been meeting with people in the region. She wondered if something changed and if he was trusting her more. âYou are a businessman and I think you are meeting people of the Singoor region.â
âYou think Iâm meeting the other clans for business purposes?â His tone was surprisingly casual.
âYes.â She saw no need to beat around the bush about what she thought of his intentions. âYou are leveraging your ties to this land for your benefit.â
He nodded. âAnd why do you think Iâm taking you to this clan meeting?â
âBeats me!â She held his gaze as he looked at her, trying to read her thoughts.
He pressed his lips together. âYouâll see why.â
His nonchalance set her off. âWhy canât you just tell me? Why this façade of surprise like you care how I feel about what you do?â The filter lifted on her annoyance. âOr just let me be. Donât pull me into whatever you plan to do here in Singoor.â
He didnât say anything for the rest of the drive, and she felt sick to the stomach. She had not only fallen prey to an excellent master plan but also pulled her clan and other clans into whatever mess the Thakvar brothers were creating in Singoor.
The rest of the trip passed by in utter silence, and she kept her eyes away from him. She looked out of the window but did not process any of the details until her eyes caught something familiar.
