Vipul Shah smiled and said "Your plan is flawless and exceptional and we really like it. Father says that all the creative points you included are liked by him but he has some concerns about their planning and feasibility. We need to discuss them with our business development managers and check those points. We want to keep those points and that is why we need to do this step."
Varsha heard Akash sigh and then looked at his expression and found him thinking something. Then she turned toward father and son and found each having a different expression. Mr Shah is calmly looking toward Akash and waiting for his response. Vipul Shah is looking toward her with a snicker on his face.
After a few moments, Akash looked toward Mr Shah and smiled and said "No issue Mr Shah. I can understand. I also know that my plan is outstanding and it's not easy for any less experienced team to implement it. Please check with your team and confirm to us if they have the means to be able to work on my proposal. Later we can have our final meeting once you have decided."
The reply of Akash proved that he is a good business person who is able to prepare an outstanding business plan. At the same time, he questioned the competency of the team of Mr Shah saying they have never worked on such type of creative implementation and it is still to be seen whether they can handle it or not.
The reply of Akash was too calm. There was no hint of anger or sarcasm but the meaning is obvious. Father and son both got surprised on the response of Akash but they have nothing to retaliate because they themselves said that they have to check with their business development managers. Even Varsha laughed internally and thought "You yourself invited for such type of response. Enjoy it now."
Finally, Mr Shah laughed trying to recover from the embarra.s.sing situation. Then he said trying to divert the discussion "Haha. As expected of the young talent of the Patel family. I am very hopeful about this collaboration." Then he looked at his watch and said "Oh, it's almost past noon. How about we do lunch together?"

Varsha is feeling depressed and doubtful. The deal was supposed to be signed but she felt like her aloof behaviour might have offended Vipul Shah. She remembered the expression of Vipul Shah when he has asked her 'Are you sure?' She could understand that invitation of lunch or going out of meeting hall with Vipul Shah while Akash was busy in the discussion might have been a plan to make her meet Mahat Pawar. Now when she rejected him, this is his way of retaliation. She even wondered whether they really wanted to sign the deal. Father and son both have been scheming and they can not bring it up as reason and making up a different reason to delay the deal signing.
When Mr Shah proposed for lunch, Varsha looked toward the smiling Mr Shah and could not believe that Mr Shah is also involved in this thing. She thought he was a good person and seemed quite genuine. How can they both help Mahat Pawar do such a perverted thing? Now she thought both father and son are the scheming and bad people.
Varsha felt repulsed by the thought of going to lunch with these people. She looked toward Akash and found him looking toward her. He gave her a slight smile when their eyes met. Varsha thought "I have already annoyed the father-son duo. So, why would it matter again?" and then brought her face near to Akash and whispered, "I am on fast." Akash laughed seeing her shy expression making father and son both look toward them.
After this Akash turned toward and smiled at Mr Shah and said "I am sorry Mr Shah. I can not have lunch with you today. My wife is on fast and she has already been getting bored for more than one hour. It's best that we return home early so that she can have some plain fast related food there. Anyway, we are going to meet again after you will confirm whether your team can work on my proposed plan or not. We can have our due lunch at that time." His expression is calm and his smile seems so flawless that even Varsha felt like he does not care about the deal.
After saying this Akash picked his laptop bag and stood up. Then he looked toward Varsha who is looking up from her seat toward him and smiled and said "Let us go now. We should not hold up Mr Shah and Vipul from their lunch." Varsha also smiled hesitatingly and then stood up to depart with Akash. Akash picked his laptop bag and supported Varsha at the waist by one hand to guide her toward the door.
Mr Shah is could only smile and nod. Vipul Shah smiled at Varsha who is looking toward father and son only and then toward Akash and said "Then Mr Akas.h.!.+ We will meet sometime soon in future."
Akash laughed and said "Why not? Please do let us soon whether your team has the competency to work on my business proposal. See you then." And then he nudged Varsha gently at her back to make her walk with him. Varsha turned her gaze toward Akash and then smiled at him and turned and walked with him. Both husband and wife walked out of the room while Father and son looked at their back which is moving away.
While walking out of the meeting room, Akash and Varsha have different type of thoughts in their minds. Akash looks calm while Varsha is anxious. She still can not believe that she could be the reason for this outcome. She looked toward Akash and asked hesitatingly "Why did they not sign the deal today?" She is afraid he might be feeling down and rebuke her. She hardened her heart to hear whatever he will say.
But to her surprise, Akash looked toward her, smiled and said: "This is how the corporate world works. The oral promises does not hold any value, only signed contracts do. They must have found some cheap deal somewhere or maybe having some second thoughts. In any case, I have tried my best and that is all we can do."
She thought what would have happened if she would have accepted to have lunch proposal of Vipul Shah. What could go wrong? She started thinking that she overdid it. Calm expression on the face of Akash is making her feel worse. She knows how hard he has worked to prepare for this meeting and has seen him working on the plans and doing meetings from home to prepare the best plan for this proposal. She is somehow blaming herself for being too cautious. What could go wrong in doing lunch at a public place? At least deal will be signed and her husband's efforts will not go to waste. More she though, the more she blamed herself and felt sad. She thought that she lost a chance to show her love and care toward her husband. She looked toward Akash, her eyes tearing and said in a whisper "Can I hold your arm?"
Akash felt surprised and then looked at her almost red eyes and felt his heart go soft. She is sad because his efforts didn't give any result. He smiled and nodded. Varsha wrapped her hand around his right arm like hugging it. Akash can understand her sadness and found those protective feelings again rising toward her. He turned to her and said softly "Fool! Why are you feeling sad? We can only try but we can not control the thoughts and actions of others." They kept walking through the lobby.
Varsha felt surprised hearing his soft scolding and it made her happy. She stole a few glances at his face and kept walking with him while holding his arm. Feeling her inclination on himself, Akash felt deal would not be this much delightful. Although the deal did not go as expected Akash still felt like it was worth the joy of feeling her care and concern.
Both husband and wife are thinking differently. Varsha saw Akash smiling and thought that he is trying to look normal by forcing himself to smile and it made her sadder and her hold tightened on his arm making Akash almost laugh.
They waited on the entrance and shortly valet brought the car. Akash carefully helped Varsha sit at the pa.s.senger seat and then sat on driving seat. He then started the car and husband and wife drove toward their home.
Two pair of eyes watched from the window of the meeting hall as Akash and Varsha drove out of the gates of the hotel. They were Vipul Shah and Mahat Pawar. He had arranged a lavish lunch today which could not serve its purpose.
Vipul Shah turned toward Mahat Pawar and said "You can not blame me. I tried everything but she dodged it all. At last resort, I convinced my father to withhold the deal signing."
"That girl is simple and innocent but she does not trust people just like that and that is her strong point. If she would have accepted so easily, she won't deserve my attention. Well, stopping the deal signing is good, I will still have some ways. I will fulfil my promise to you and your father about the hotel deal." Mahat Pawar said with a sly smile.
Vipul Shah is looking at Mahat Pawar with changing of expressions of susceptible, admiration and confused sometimes trying to gauge his thoughts. He smiled hearing that Mahat Pawar will fulfil the promise he has made and then said "We did trust you on that. Let us go have our lunch." And he turned to go out of the hall.
Mahat Pawar also turned and followed. He laughed and said, "Why not?"
