Can You Mend My Broken Heart? Chapter 199 The demon has resurfaced – 1

After their lunch was over, Akira and Vikram returned back to the office.

As they were about to enter the lift, they saw Peter coming down in the same lift, with all his stuff packed inside a box. He hung his head low and greeted them both discreetly.

After getting out from the lift he somehow summoned some courage and said,

“I am really sorry Akira for everything that I did. I know that no amount of apology would be enough to make up for the issues that you had to face because of me, but still, I will try. Trust me, whatever I did, I did thinking that you will stay happier with Mr. Shah. I didn’t want to inflict any physical harm. All I wanted was for you to unite with Mr. Shah at any cost. Anyways not that it matters anymore now. And Mr. Shah, I am really sorry for using your resources behind your back. I don’t know what to say. It’s just that working with you was a great opportunity and I will be always grateful to you for that”.

Saying that he moved out with all his stuff.

Akira looked at Vikram and she could clearly see a cloud of sadness spreading on his face for he was losing out on one of his best employees.

So she went ahead and pulled Vikram’s arm and said,

“You told me that you would reconsider taking him back. How is this re-consideration?”

“Somehow my conscience doesn’t agree with it Akira. Not after all that has happened. My trust has been broken and I don’t know if that will ever be repaired again”.

“No Vikram. Think logically. He really had no fault. He did what he was instructed to do by your mom. He didn’t do it because of his own whims. Plus you really need a helping hand in the office. I know the guilt is eating you up and because of that only you have fired him, but I am myself telling you to hire him back. I trust you. I know you will never harm me and won’t let anyone harm me either. Plus he has already learned his lesson. How much more do you want to trouble him?”.

“Just think about all the times when he did his best for you. Was it not good enough?”.

Vikram pondered for a while and then after much deliberation he said,

“Peter !!! Wait !!!”

Peter heard him and immediately returned back,

“Yes, Mr.Shah”.

“Well can you do one thing for me?”, Vikram asked.

“Anything sir”.

“Then pull yourself back in the company right now. I think my judgments were way too harsh for you”, Vikram said and smiled looking at him.

At first, Peter couldn’t believe what he heard and his mouth opened in surprise, but he immediately gathered himself and said,

“I am so so grateful to you for your kind reconsideration sir. I will not disappoint you”, Peter said and followed them back upstairs.

Next Akira signed all the documents which were pending for her resignation and then Vikram went down to drop her.

Raymond was in his car waiting for her to come. But when he saw Vikram also coming out with her, he came out of the car.

After their last cordial talk, Raymond knew that Vikram meant no harm. He wanted to forgive him completely but the possessiveness within him didn’t let him do so.

He went ahead and exchanged a handshake with him.

Vikram looked at Akira and sighed.

“I sent her to your company the first time and I am doing it for the second time too. I just hope I don’t regret it again”, he said and smiled looking at Raymond.

“You won’t. Because as promised I will train her well”, Raymond said looking at Akira.

“She is very fragile Raymond, but she will always try to show that she is made of iron, so just be aware of that”.

“Yes, I know that very well indeed”.

“You guys !!! A night before you were mortal enemies and now you are bitching about me and that too in front of me”, Akira said all irritated.

“Well jokes apart, my team will be visiting your office tomorrow for just a regular status update. Let’s make sure that everything is all set for us”, Vikram said looking at Raymond.

“Sure we will try our best to have a winning shot in the GCG event”.

Saying that Raymond opened the car door for Akira and then they drove off.

Vikram looked in the direction where the car went for a few seconds and then opened his phone which was buzzing with a newly received message.

“She saw the papers and even took pictures of it !!!” – Peter

.

.

A devilish grin spread on his face after seeing the message.

“That’s Swell” – Vikram instantly replied.
