Rich Brat: Sweet Revenge Of A Lazy Princess - Chapter 347
Just as Srinivas sighed in relief, the silent corridor was filled with footsteps.
Everyone came back at last.
Because Shreya had been drilling everyone with work, they couldn’t come back sooner. And Shreya never informed Anand or Bhagya about what had happened. They did not want to scare them in the middle of the night.
So, her uncle and aunt came to know about the accident only in the morning when Akash told her parents. As soon as they came to know of it, they first scolded Akash before making their way to the hospital.
Akash and Zack accompanied them obviously. Pritham is still buried in his computers. Without the server and access to all the data they had collected so far, it was getting tedious to get any sort of information. He had been hitting brick walls at every turn trying to figure things out.
Anand first went into the room Shreya was in and saw her state. As soon as he saw her banged-up state, his heart twisted.
Bhagya let out a shocked whimper as she approached the sleeping Shreya.
“What the hell happened out there Zack? How did things get to this??” Bhagya asked looking around ice cold. While Anand went to sit beside Shreya.
He could not take his eyes off of her as tears spilled down uncontrollably.
Zack let out a sigh before briefly explaining what had happened the night before.
He did not know the full ins and outs of the matter but he had a hunch that Shreya had figured out something from all the instructions she gave. He also knows she probably has a plan in her head already.
Even when he was smart, he still couldn’t figure out what she had figured out. After all, he had been with her from the start of this mess… so, he knew almost everything about it as much as Shreya does. But he still couldn’t figure out what had happened today.
He knew one of the culprits was Naren… But he could not pinpoint his motives for breaking into the office. And personally, Naren did not seem smart enough to make such an elaborate lure. And even if it was only a lure, there was still something very sketchy about the way they had handled Abishek.
“We found a very small charge detonator in Shreya’s car. It caused the brakes to fail at a very precise time and the car crashed into a truck. Zeenath must have turned the car just in time taking most of the damage.” Zack explained what he had found out about the crash itself after the police had investigated.
But he did not tell them about how Shreya had shot and killed 5 people on sight. And as far as the police were concerned, they were killed by their men and not her. And since all of them were fully geared up and armed, it did not lead to many complications either. Because Shreya had asked him to tell that she was almost on the verge of dying, he could only tell that his men had to shoot them while they came to rescue Shreya.
Even without the story, even if the police figure out it was Shreya, it wouldn’t much matter since it was a legitimate self-defense move. If Shreya hadn’t done it, Shreya and Zeenath wouldn’t have been able to walk out of their alive.
Because when they were looking around, they found that they had prepared a backup team hiding just minutes away from the crash site. If Shreya had let any of them alive and one of them called for backup, things could have gotten worse. His guys found them hiding away waiting for them to clear the scene.
By the time they figured out something was not right with the scene, his guys have already arrived and all they could do was hide.
So, he was really really glad that Shreya did not hesitate and did what she ought to do to protect herself.
As soon as Zack finished saying about the accident, she looked back at Anand. Even when Anand did not say anything, she could see him make a fist. “And what about Sri corp.?” Bhagya asked next.
Zack once again explained what had happened. He did not know how much Bhagya knew about what was happening and the server… so, he explained the in and outs of the security system in place and how the whole thing went down.
“How are Zeenath and Anne?” Bhagya asked. She did not just ask this for herself but she also asked this for sake of Shreya… she could already imagine what it would do to Shreya if anything happened to any of them.
“Zeenath is in ICU next door. They had put her in an induced coma… she was hurt pretty hard on her head. But they said she was going to be okay!” Srinivas answered this time.
In the time Shreya was getting her treatment, he went in to see Zeenath… he really wished he hadn’t. The whole of her left side was fractured. She was wrapped up like a mummy.
Her face was pale with masks and tubes all over.
Srinivas had always seen her so wild and being reckless… after getting used to seeing her like that, seeing her injured, it broke his heart into million little pieces. He did not even dare to touch her fearing he might break something more.
“Shreya asked us to publicize the accident without including Zeenath into the picture… She wanted to say to the police that she is in critical condition and she was the one driving the car!!” Zack added. The driver’s side of the car was so crushed that nobody will think twice when he said Shreya was in a critical condition.
Zack told this mainly to remind Anand to be prepared. Because once this news broke, the company is going to be chaotic.
Comparative to other companies, Sri corp. is actually more disciplined and smooth running. It was mainly self-sustained.
Even when Shreya had played a major role… it had always been behind the scenes. She always made sure the company can run pretty much the same without any glitches.
Only in the past few months did she take personal actions in the company.
“Akash, you go to the company and take care of the situation… I will send John and Adam to help you… I am going to stay with Shreya…” Anand at last spoke. But he still did not look away from Shreya…
