“Kiara?” Milan was astounded to see his daughter standing in front of him. He turned to Samanvay who gave his father a warning glare. Milan kept his mouth shut but decided to talk later about Kiara’s presence here with Samanvay. “Yes, Dad. How do you like my surprise?” She asked with a broad excited smile to her face as she went and hugged her father tightly. “I like it a lot but you should have told me before coming here.”Kiara looked at her father. “Where would have been the surprise in that, Dad?” she asked with a duh Look. “And anyway I have decided to stay here from now on. I am over with London’s climate.”Milan’s eyes snapped to Samanvay again in question who ignored his gaze and pulled Kiara to him. “Come let me introduce you to Manya and your nephews. The smile on Kiara's face widened but her eyes turned sharp and threatening as she asked: “Have you named your kids?” “No,” Samanvay answered, although he was frightened inside thinking about Lisa’s wish to name one of the b
“I don't understand Dad. Why are you saying Lisa could break Sam Bro’s marriage?” Milan Goenka took his daughter’s hand in his hand and let out a deep sigh. “You know Samanvay has a protective instinct about the people in his life. Lisa is obsessed with Samanvay, she considers Viraj and Dylan as her own children. It was good that John called you here or she would have created a scene to name one of the boys as Jacob.”“But why? Lisa is a friend, she can't demand such things from Sam Bro. I know they are very close to each other. He loved Lisa as much as he loves me but still, Dad, Lisa needs to understand her limits.”“Samanvay needs to set some boundaries for Lisa too. If he keeps treating her with kid gloves she would act like that,” Milan said sharply, Kiara frowned at his words.“Talk to Samanvay if you can. I want Lisa and John to live in a separate house from this,” Kiara gasped. “Dad, Sam Bro would never agree to send Lisa away. You know him.”“That's why I am asking you to do
“Bark again!” Samanvay lashed at John who looked down towards the floor. He knew that if he said something, Samanvay’s anger would only spark further. “I am asking you something, John!” He commanded brusquely. “Five casinos are sealed here and three in Goa. Two more liquor licences were cancelled by the government, this month.” John informed him again and Samanvay’s eyes turned livid. “Have you called the Chief Minister?” He inquired, his voice tight with barely controlled rage. John blew out a breath and shook his head, “Not accepting the call. As per my sources, He gave free hand to Niam Sehgal to ruin your business and reputation.”Samanvay’s eyes went as hard as stones as his anger reached the boiling point. “Manan Raj!” He seethed out as his fingers clenched tightly into a fist. “Samanvay, I think you should leave the country for a while. As things proceed, I can see an ugly faceoff. Niam has political power in his hold. He is dangerous for us right now.”Samanvay’s eyes went
“The proposal I am suggesting is beneficial for both of us, Niam,” Samanvay expressed his belief for the partnership He was offering to Niam Sehgal, the man who owned a chain of hotels around three continents, Asia, Europe and North America.And Samanvay Goenka wanted partners like Niam Sehgal to expand his casino and liquor business around the world. He already had an established Casino and Liquor empire in Asia and Australia but now he wanted to enter the markets of North America and Europe. He had been trying to reach this man for the last two weeks but he kept rejecting Samanvay’s proposal and meeting him. However, Samanvay Goenka was known for always getting what he desired, be it money, power or woman but Niam Sehgal was a hard nut to crack. Finally, two days ago, His another business ally, Mr Merchant told Him that he could arrange Samanvay an informal meeting with Niam Sehgal. True to his words, Mr Merchant invited him to this charity event in Niam Sehgal’s hotel. Although S
Chapter 2"My boy looks agitated today? May I know the reason behind your sour mood, son?" Samanvay let out the breath he was holding and glanced at his adoptive father, Milan Goenka who had a curious look on his face. Samanvay knew he was not going to stop pestering Him until he knew the reason behind His anger. Milan glanced at John, Samanvay’s friend and right-hand man in question even though he knew that John would never tell him anything. He might be their adoptive father but John was loyal to Samanvay not him. He was here for Samanvay and Lisa. "Sam?" Milan asked again, Samanvay straightened in his chair and gave him the happy news. "I have found the woman I want to marry."Milan blinked, for a moment he didn't understand how to react. “You have found a woman to marry?" He asked one more time to make sure he heard him right. Samanvay nodded at his father. “Yes, I have.”"May I know who this lucky girl is?""Manya Sehgal." Samanvay answered and Milan Goenka stiffened. H
Chapter 3"I am waiting for the day when you and Neel will get married just like this," Niam said with a wistful look in his eyes as he watched the wedding ceremony of a client's daughter in the grand hall of his hotel. Manya turned to her father."Neel said he will talk to his father about us, soon. I hope that Mr Oberoi agrees to it." Niam glanced at his daughter. "He will agree. Who can say no for my My daughter?" Manya gave her father a small smile. She knew how proud her father was of her. At the age of twenty-five, even after being a having a law degree, she was working in her family business and successfully handling the post of General manager of The Sehgal group of hotels and resorts around the world. But She was eagerly waiting for the big promotion next month when her father would announce her as the next CEO of The Sehgal group of hotels and resorts. It was one of her dreams, to take over her father's legacy and take it to the new heights of success. Manya had only t
John and Milan watched Samanvay pacing around his room. He was seething in rage. "She called me an Orphan, she called me bad blood, father,” Samanvay snarled. Milan's eyes met John's. Both knew how dangerous Samanvay could get in this mood. "I can take care of this woman. I can punish her if you want." John stated and Samanvay stopped pacing around the room. He snapped his eyes to his friend and sneered, "Come again!" John swallowed his saliva to wet his throat at the intensity of Samanvay’s angry gaze. "She insulted you for the second time, Sir. I just thought… ""You thought wrong, John. She is going to be your queen. Take her name with respect or I won't warn you next time,” He stated and pointed a finger to his chest. “This is my revenge. My war against those snobs. Killing or hurting them is not the right punishment for them. Especially for Her!" He whispered, His eyes and tone darkened automatically at the thought of Manya Sehgal. "She called me a disgusted swine. She is dis
Samanvay lightened His cigar and took a puff as He eyed Anthony through His peripheral vision. "You don't understand Anthony, this is my city now. I rule over ‘The Syndicate’ now, not Milan Goenka. What understanding you had with him, it ended with his rule. Now, you have to pay taxes like everyone else does." He said taking another puff of cigar and blowing the smoke on Anthony's face.Anthony's face tightened in fury. He glanced at Milan with anger-filled eyes. "Your son is insulting me, Milan. We have a twenty-year unwritten arrangement. You can't change the rules just like that. Don't forget who helped you when you were in jail."John's eyes were on the man standing behind Anthony. His restless eyes were telling him that this meeting could soon turn into a bloody one. John was ready to spread blood too."I returned the favour to you, Anthony. As my son said, He rules over ‘The Syndicate’ now, not me. You should have taken His permission before bringing your goods to His docks."
