Can You Mend My Broken Heart?

180 The epic reveal - 2

"I am up to nothing but to reveal your true face Mr.Conglomerate Giant".

"I am up to revealing the real version of you that no one is aware of".

"Tonight is really the night that you will remember for I will snatch away the mask of goodness that you have put on your face, for once and for all".

Scarlett said and switched to the next slide.

On the screen, there was a copy of the cheque signed by Vikram Shah which was written in the favor of Scarlett.

She turned back to look at Akira and asked,

"You still think he has nothing to do with this?"

Akira was taken aback. The fonts on the screen had started to become all hazy for her. She felt like the floor underneath her legs has started to crumble. She was unable to find words for she didn't know how to ask.

In one single moment, all her trust was snapped into two.

Tears started filling her eyes for she couldn't believe that of all the people on earth it would be him who was behind all this.

The moment Vikram saw hey eyes clouding in tears he knew he was done and that nothing could repair the trust that has been broken. He moved forward to hold her hand and to explain that he had nothing to do with it, but she took a step back.

"Why did you?", she asked with her words barely audible.

Tears were streaming down her cheeks and she kneeled down on the floor and she asked again,

"Why did you?"

"Trust me Akira I have nothing to do with this I don't know from where they have arranged all these fake papers and videos from. None of this is real. They are just trying to frame me", he said and came forward.

"Stop right there", she said and then looked up to him.

"Tell me for real, why did you have a file of Raymond at your place that day? Did you answer me everything honestly that day? Was it just for the sake of background check?", Akira asked looking at Vikram pining down her last ray of hope for him to say yes.

But he stood there all silent without uttering a word for he couldn't lie to her, not at this moment. The file was never made for the purpose of background check after all.

She slumped on the floor and seeing that Katherine came forward to hold her but she lifted her hand asking her to stop.

She looked at her and said,

"You knew !!! You all knew and you never told me. You all have let me make a fool of myself".

"Don't say we didn't want to, but we had our reasons not to do so", Katherine said and looked at Scarlett who took a deep breath and said,

"Anthony is my cousin brother and the only way I could have bailed him out was to get in between you and Raymond. Trust me I didn't wish for this to happen, maybe a part of me did, but if not for the bail money, I would never have landed myself in this soup".

"Anthony is your cousin brother?"

"Ok enough of all this. can you just stop all this farce of trying to frame me with your bullshit imaginative story !!!", Vikram hissed.

"Frame you??? Really? Did a rouge Dog bite me that of all the people I will frame you, Mr. Shah, for I didn't even know you"?

Said Katherine and switched to the next slide where there was a photograph of Peter meeting Anthony at the Villa where Scarlett was stayed put and was giving him a folder.

Akira immediately recognized the folder for it was the same brown folder which was present in her car containing the disturbing photograph and the contract that she had to sign and give to Scarlett if she wanted to keep the baby alive.

"Trust me Akira I have no idea what Peter is doing there. I don't know why he is involved in all this. I swear to God I will figure this all out", Vikram said and stormed towards the lobby area to take the lift to find Peter,

But to his surprise, the lobby was locked from inside.

"It's not the time to run away Mr. Vikram but the time to explain yourself !!!", Shawn said and went to Akira to hold the poor girl who seemed like had been set ablaze in the pyre of pain.

Vikram stormed back and sneered pointing towards Katherine and Scarlett

"You and you, You can consider your acting career gone now. I will make sure of that and for your brother, only heavens can help him now. And as for you let me see who will save your brother !!!"

"You all end this now and explain yourself because this is the last chance that I am giving you".

"Oh about that !!! So how will you destroy my brother? By tearing away the contract? or by taking away all the funds? Which way will you go?", Katherine asked.

"Do not instigate me for you can never save your brother's company !!!", Vikram hissed but then he heard some one speak.

"Katherine cannot, but she will", and he pointed towards Akira.
