Chapter 34: chapter 34

A man walked into Surya’s cell and called, “Surya!”Surya was surprised looking at him and said, “Gowtham? What are you doing here?”“I have to ask you the same! What is this Mess? They are accusing you of being a fraud! What’s happening, brother?”Surya’s cousin, Gowtham, is a CID officer in Mumbai. Meenakshi called Gowtham and explained the matter. He was blown away by his cousin’s arrest. He couldn’t bear Meenakshi’s sorrow. He instilled confidence in her and promised her that he would bring Surya out safely.Surya did not answer Gautham. “Tell me, What is your crime? What actually happened? Why are you damaging your reputation by yourself? Surya, as if he had come to a decision, firmly said, “I have committed a crime. I hacked Arun’s system and quoted less than him every time. I have hurt him and I have grown well in business and become number one. I should be punished for doing this. Don't get involved in this!" "No, brother. You are making up everything and you expect it to be true? We are here for you, don't you know that?”Sorry, Mr CID Gautam! You came by your duty and I gave my statement. Go and submit it in court, that's it! Discussions between us are unnecessary. Go on,” he said seriously.”Gautham was furious and said, “Oh! Okay.”“Now this CID officer will talk to you and interrogate you.“Answer the questions then!”What is your name?Surya looked at him and said, “Surya.” Full name?“Surya Pratap Varma."“Were you born into a middle-class family?”Surya smiled slightly at his question and said, “No, I was born in a Zamindari clan.”“So you must have inherited so many properties, right?“Yes!”“Why did you get into the construction business then?”“I didn’t want to use my inheritance. I want to grow on my own with my willpower.”“Are you married?”“Yes!”“How many days have you been married?”“Eleven months.”"So, it’s a second marriage for your wife, right?"Surya looked at him angrily and said, “She is your sister, do you realise that?”“I’m well aware of that. Answer the question!"Surya restrained his anger and said yes.“Well, describe your relationship with your wife?"“She is a good woman."“Good woman? Does she like you?"Surya thought for a while and replied, “Yes!”“Oh! but will she do anything for you?"“Definitely, she would sacrifice herself for me!”“Seems like a woman of values! But why isn’t she here for you?”Surya was shocked by his question. "Tell me, Surya. She hesitated to come to you in this situation. She might have chosen someone else ignoring all of this!’He provoked Surya. Surya couldn't bare it anymore, “What the hell are you saying? I’ll burn you to ashes if you speak ill about her! She is a hostage because of Arun or else she’d have come running to me!” Surya bursted.Surya realised that he spilt the tea. Gowtham said, “I got what I needed to know. I’ll take care of it!”Surya screamed, “Gowtham, don’t act smart! Sandhya is his hostage, he might kill her. Please!”Surya screamed as he watched Arun walking away.Â
