Rich Brat: Sweet Revenge Of A Lazy Princess - Chapter 335

Shreya went to Charan’s parents’ place for dinner that day. When Charan picked her up from her office, they went straight to his house. As soon as she came in the whole house light up and getting lively.

Mostly, Shreya and Bharath kept bickering for the whole night.

That was of course until Adam and Preethi came back… As soon as Preethi came in, Shreya became a very obedient person. Even when Charan found it odd, he did not question it at that time. And with Akil, Bharath and Akira around, none of the others noticed her apparent change. Or that was what Charan thought.

“What did you do to Shreya? Why does she look, for lack of a better word, scared of you in the reception?” Adam asked suddenly remembering what happened at the dinner just now.

He found it odd at his dinner wedding itself but never got the chance to ask. Using the verb ‘scared’ to describe Shreya felt alien to him but he did not know how else to describe how she reacted that day. Shreya was as shameless and as over-bearing as it can get when she put her mind to it. She yields to very few people without protests. So, he was surprised when he saw Shreya give in as soon as Preethi pitched in while he had been unsuccessfully trying to get away from there for 2 hours that day.

It had been a couple of days since they got married and moved into their new house. They had settled down pretty much. They made it a point to go to dinner at Preethi’s parents’ place so far. And they seem to like it this way… Especially given they had gotten used to having AKil all the time at home for some years now. So, they couldn’t cope if he was taken away completely. And since the place Adam saw was also close by, it was not much of a bother either.

They both got into the car after settling down Akil on the back seat. The little guy was already fast asleep after playing for all this time.

“I just gave her hell for hurting my brother!!” Preethi said nonchalantly with a sinister grin.

She really did not like the power Shreya had on her family. This made her hate her just a tiny bit even when she knew it was petty of her to do that.

She knows the Shreya had brought so much more happiness to her family… especially to Charan and Akira… but that would all mean nothing if she was going to take it away with her as she pleases when she got bored. After all, nobody knows what a broken heart can do to a person and a family better than her. So, her over-protective sister mode got activated when she got to know Shreya and Charan were seeing each other again… So, one of the days, Preethi called Shreya over after they got back from the island and gave her hell.

What calmed her down was the fact that Shreya did not show any arrogance to her that day… she just stood there and took everything she said to her without any sort of resistance. That for some reason made her feel uneasy and complicated whenever she saw Shreya thereon.

Adam looked at Preethi surprised at first but then after contemplating, it did make sense. He had seen the way Preethi got along with Charan. She was protective of him…

“You know, I am not trying to take her side but she really did not have any other choice back then… literally. There was too much danger around her at that time… She could have exposed Charan and Akira to some really bad people if she had been around them at that time…” Adam explained.

“That does not make everything alright. She cannot just come and go as she pleases!” Preethi said stubbornly.

“As I said, I am not supporting her. What she did was not ideal, yes. But she did explain everything to Charan at all times from the moment she started going out with him… he knew exactly what he was getting at. And even their separation was something he had actually agreed to even when it was initiated by Shreya…” Adam explained.

“I don’t care… she is not off the hook!” Preethi said pouting. But then her browns frown in contemplation.

After all, all she knew was what was on the surface. And on the surface, Charan did not explain many things to his family in the fear of scaring them. The explanation they got was that Shreya was going to be pretty busy for a period and she cannot meet up at that time…

They did not know it was something more complicated. But hearing to Adam, maybe there was more to it than what’s on the surface.

But then, as a sister, she still did not like seeing Charan depressed.

“I am not asking you to let her off-hook… I am just asking you to give her a chance. DO not guard against her like a hawk all the time…” Adam said stopped the car in their parking lot.

He then went to the back seat and naturally lifted Akil up.

Oddly enough, Charan had the same question for Shreya about the same time…

“You want to tell me why you are sweating buckets every time you see my sister?” Charan asked. But his tone was light since he knew nothing serious could have happened.

“Nothing happened. It is just, Preethi said she was going to keep an eye on me before I can be with you fullfledged again after our separation. I am still on a probation period. So, of course, I should work hard to get her approval.”

“You do not need her approval Shreya…” Charan said shaking his head. But then he did not plan on interfering with each other. Both were a.d.u.l.ts and his sister is not going to go overboard anyways. And Shreya can handle her.

He just wished they would have a better relationship at the end of it.
