Ruhi and Kavya, are sitting in the auto, and both are going to Raja saheb palace as they don't want to delay more.

"Ruhi, I hope Raja saheb will help us," said kavya.

"Belief in God, Kavya Raja saheb will help us certainly, as he is a very kind-hearted man."

Both of them reached Raja saheb palace.

"Ruhi, let's go," said Kavya.

She hummed and went with her, and they saw a guard was standing there.

"Excuse me, please open the door as we want to meet Raja saheb," said Kavya to the guards.

"Sorry, But you can't go as there is not appointment today to meet Raja saheb," Said one of the guards.

"Sir, we want to meet the Raja saheb today, we have urgent work with him so pls let us go...please," Kavya said in a pleading tone.

"Look Madam, sorry once again but you can't go," said the same guard again.

"You don't understand a single thing we want to meet Raja saheb today, so let us go," Kavya shouted at him.

Kavya was arguing with them for a long time...then another guard comes towards them and said to Ruhi, "Madam, pls take her away from here otherwise we will take action against her as she creating commotion here."

Ruhi pulls kavya to herself and whispered, "Kavya, have some patience, dear, let me talk with them...wait here."

Ruhi went towards the guard and said, "could you pls send a message inside, a girl has come, who had made Former queen Portrait,"

"Wait here," said the guard.

After a while, they permit them to enter the palace, it seems, Raja saheb has recognized Ruhi.

"when both of them entered through the main gate they saw a huge elephant idol on either side of the gates, there was also a big fountain just in front of the gate which was decorated with different kinds of stones, after that their eyes fall on the palace, the palace is a four storey stone structure made with fine granite and the walls of the palace decorated with colored stones which were looking breathtaking beautiful...

When they reached the main hall, they saw the floor of the palace decorated with black and white marble and a large chandelier hanging in the middle of the hall, and then they noticed Raja Sahib coming down the stairs with a man.

Ruhi and Kavya bows their head in the honor of Raja saheb and Said, "Greeting(Namaste),"

He becomes glad as seeing her, and said as smiling, "How are you, Ruhi?" and sat on the big luxurious couch while that man stood beside him.

she got shocked to hear her name from his mouth as he remembers her name yet, "I'm fine, sir."

"Ruhi, what makes you come here abruptly?" asked Raja Saheb.

"Sir, we want your help in something," then she told him everything.

After few minutes,

"Sir, pls help us, because of him, my father has tried to commit suicide." said kavya.

"Wait, child." Raja saheb asked from a man who was standing near him, "Subhash, What the world is going on here? why didn't you tell me anything regarding this matter?"

"Raja Saheb, Chote Raja Surya Pratap is looking into this matter that's why--"

"Let it be, call that Sonu landowner here, Right now!" said Raja Saheb.

"Glory to the Raja Saheb," said Sonu landowner as coming towards him and bowed his head and looks towards Ruhi with lustful eyes.

Ruhi hides behind her friend after seeing him.

"Sonu, why did you do this to poor farmers? Huh?" Raja saheb asked furiously.

"Raja Saheb, I haven't done anything wrong," he replied.

"Well, if you didn't do anything wrong then why didn't you return all property papers and Gold which you had taken from those poor farmers when you had already sold your land to that businessman," kavya screamed as looking towards Sonu.

Sonu stared at her angrily.

"Tell Sonu, why didn't you return their papers and gold yet? When you have already sold your land," said Raja Saheb.

"Raja sir, as they have not returned my full money yet, if they really want their property papers then return my full money and take their papers and gold," said Sonu while smirking towards Kavya. "But they were giving you little by little, wasn't he?" said Ruhi hesitatively.

"Raja Saheb, their debt was collecting twice while they were paying every year to me because their crop was not doing well due to lack of rain for few years, so they mortgaged their papers and gold with me because they also knew that they would not be able to repay their loan. So not seeing any profit for few years, that's why I sold my land."

Rajasaheb agrees with him because he was also not wrong so he nodded his head but yet he said, "can that businessman give your land back, I would like to buy that land for these farmers because that land is very fertile and we will try to solve the water problem soon there. So call him right now. I will talk with him in person."

Ruhi and kavya become happy to heard Raja saheb's words.

"Raja Saheb, he is a well-known businessman, so I don't have his number but his project assistant Mr. Noah's number," said Sonu.

"Ok, call him quickly."

He dialed Mr. Noah's number.

"Hello Mr.Sonu," a voice comes from another side.

"Sir, could you pass your phone to your Boss, our Raja Saheb, Mr.Dev Pratap want to talk with him in person," said Sonu.

"Sorry, Mr.Sonu, but now our Sir is busy in a meeting, so it's not possible for now," said Mr.Noah.

"Ok, when he would be free pls call me back," said Mr.Sonu.

"Ok."

and then Sonu hangs up the phone and said, "Raja Saheb, he is not available for now, but they would call us after some time when he would be free."

Raja Saheb nodded and said, "Ruhi and Kavya, you both go as it got too late."

They nodded and went from there.

"Sonu, you also go from here, if they call you back then tell them that I want that land back, if they don't agree then I will not allow them to start their construction work," said Raja saheb in a stiff voice.

He hummed and went from there.

Outside the palace, he again calls Noah and tells him everything that Raja saheb had told him...

Then he went towards the guard and asked, "where did those two girls go?"

"They have left in the rickshaw a while ago," replied the guard.

*Ernest Office*

"Mr.Ernest, Thank you so much for investing," said Mr. Aaditya while stretched his hand towards him with a smiling face, and Edwin was glaring at him continuously like he will pierce him in apart with his eyes. He nodded, stretched his hand, and shakes with him with a stern face."But I would like to come there to see it, after all, how will you invest my money.

"Of course, Mr. Ernest, I will be delighted if you come to India," said Aaditya.

Ernest hummed after heard him.

Aaditya shakes his hand with Edwin too, with a smile, but Edwin was staring at him continuously.

Outside his Office

"Sir, is this your decision right?" asked his assistant.

"Means?" Aditya asked.

"That ... Is it right to ask Mr.Ernest to invest money in our project? If we lose it, he will not spare us because he is known throughout England for his brutality," said his assistant with disappointment. "Don't worry, Naman, don't think negatively, nothing like this will happen, and I want to show my dad also that I can do business like him," said Aditya in an excited tone." I don't think he will come to India so soon because he will be busy with his other projects too, so don't take too much stress and let's go to the hotel as we are getting late for our flight."

He nods and thinks to himself, "I hope so, otherwise that ruthless man will not spare you and me at all."

In Ernest Cabin,

"Ernest, Why are you investing in his lame project?" Edwin asked inquisitively to Ernest, who was working his work on Laptop.

Ernest devilishly smirks to see him and said, "You will know soon, Edwin."

Edwin stares at him with a confused look.

"Knock-Knock"

"Come in," said Ernest.

"Sir," said Noah, bowing his head, but Ernest did not look at him because he was engrossed in his work.

"What happened to you, Noah?" Edwin asked, looking at him who looked very tense.

Ernest also stared at him while lifted his brow.

"Prince Ernest--"

"DON'T YOU DARE TO CALL ME PRINCE, I HAVE ALREADY TOLD YOU NUMEROUS OF TIMES, WHY DON'T YOU UNDERSTAND F**KI*G SIMPLE THING, DAMN IT," Ernest roared in a very loud voice. Noah was scared out of his wits and his body was trembling in fear.

"Ernest, Calm Down, this room is soundproof so why are you shouting?"

"I know very well, but I can't let these thoughtless morons call myself, prince. Don't know when and in front of whom they call me Prince," said Ernest while gritting his teeth in anger.

Noah stuttered, "S-ir, I-m v-e-ry So-o-ry, It w-il-l ne-ve-r h-app-en a-gai-n."

"Don't say your damn sorry, but be careful next time otherwise --"

"No, Sir, Seriously, It will never happen again, I swear," Noah said in one breathe.

"Noah, tell us, Why did you come here?" Edwin asked to divert Ernest.

"Sir, Mr. Sonu had called me some time ago and said, their Raja wants to buy that land, and if Ernest Sir did not agree to sell that land then they will not allow us to start our work there," Noah replied. "What? How dare he? I will not sell that land to him at any cost," Ernest said as standing from the chair while slamming hard his clenched fist on the table.

Edwin frowned to see Ernest and said as looking towards Noah," but what happened suddenly to him? He didn't say anything before, Didn't he?"

"Sir, actually Raja Dev Pratap was not there when Sonu had sold his land to Ernest Sir and now two girls came to him to ask him for his help to get the paper of their property from Sonu. But he will not return their papers to them until he gets all his money back from them, so the king has decided that he will buy that land for the farmers so that they can repay their loan quickly, and he was telling too, one of the girls was special to the king because, at the behest of her, the king has taken this decision."

"Who the hell is she? Who wants to ruin my plan, damn it?" said Ernest who was now raging in anger.

"Noah, tell that landowner, I'm coming there tomorrow, and I will deal with the king and that girl in person," snarled Ernest.

After hearing him, Noah went from there in a blink of an eye.

"Ernest, why are you going to India suddenly? you can manage from here as well then why? and we have an important meeting with Mr.Oliver too, bro," said Edwin while gazing at him.

"I'm not interested in any meetings right now and especially with that Fu*k*r and his bi*ch* daughter." he said with intense anger, "Because now, I'will definitely show that girl her place who is becoming very dear to the king."

Edwin got disappointed to hear him as he was calling Diana with absurd language.

"What happens to you suddenly?" Ernest asked.

"Nothing... You say, What are you saying?"

"I'm going there anyway, there's a lot of projects out there too, that I'll have to see, so it will be right if I go there now... Edwin, take care of everyone here, especially Elena."

"Ok Ernest, If you have decided, then go, but please control your anger in front of him, after all, he is your maternal Grandfather."

He hummed and said, "you don't tell anyone that I am going to India, otherwise you know, what will happen?"

"Ok, but Bruno?"

"I will take him with me this time, don't worry," Ernest headed towards the door and holds the knob.

"Ernest,"

he turns towards him, "Huh?"

"Don't know why? but I think this trip will make the slightest change in your life," Edwin said while looking towards him."

Ernest stares at him and doesn't say anything to him and goes from there while Edwin stared at him until his figure disappeared from his eyes.
