Vedika Verma? Tejas repeated the name as told by Gaurav. You mean to say that you have chosen a female bodyguard for me? His brows shrunk and he examined her profile that Gaurav had emailed to him.

Gaurav, it’s a serious matter, Maharani Minal Devi said, throwing a sharp gaze at Gaurav, one of the most trusted employees of the royal family.

Someone has tried to take Tejas’s life by shooting a bullet at him. Thank god, he escaped the bullet. Now, we need a bodyguard who can protect him from all kinds of dangers.

I can see through her profile that she had been an air-hostess and later on, after her father’s death she took over her father’s company. So basically, she is an heiress who is forced to run her father’s business. Tejas sounded a little skeptical.

Vedika runs Alpha Security Solutions which is the most sought after company for security services. Vedika herself has been a bodyguard to several high profile people through different assignments, Gaurav said. She is high in demand. People say that her alacrity, intelligence and presence of mind are unmatchable. Tejas, I think you should meet her once.

Mita, Tejas’s elder sister who had been a mute listener to their conversations till now, said, I don’t think somebody’s caliber should be dismissed off just because she is a female.

I think Mita is right. I would like to meet Vedika and then decide whether she should be hired as my bodyguard or not. Also, I got a call from inspector Khurana. He has expedited the investigation to find out who wants to take my life and why, Tejas said thoughtfully.

This is really shocking for me to even imagine that Tejas could have enemies with such a serious grudge that they are willing to murder him, Mita said and took a deep breath, lines of worries creeping over her forehead. Mita, Tejas’s elder sister who was ten years older to him, looked deeply concerned about her brother. He was very close to her since his childhood.

When is Vedika supposed to come and meet me? Tejas asked, turning to Gaurav.

She must be on her way. I have told her that you would be busy in the evening, so you would prefer to meet her in the afternoon itself.

That’s perfect! Tejas said. Is everything set for today’s celebration?

All set! Gaurav replied.

Had Raja sahab been alive today, he would have been the happiest man to see the golden jubilee celebration of our company, Rani said in a broken voice as her eyes turned moist while remembering her husband.

Seeing their mother look emotionally fragile, Mita and Tejas came close to her and lovingly wrapped their arms around her.

Papa would be happy wherever he is. His blessings are always with us, Tejas said, planting a gentle kiss on his mother’s head.

"It’s all because of his blessings and Tejas’s hard work that our firm is setting
