Rich Brat: Sweet Revenge Of A Lazy Princess - Chapter 376

Naren and Yash were arrested that very afternoon and were sent to the maximum-security prison straight away. No matter how much they tried to explain that they were not foreign terrorists, it went into deaf years.

After all, none of their enemies can leave such a good opportunity to go to waste. So, even when they knew Naren and Yash were in fact telling the truth, nobody came forward to help.

Yash knew too many secrets about the political party and its members. So, finishing him off as early as possible will benefit everyone. So, this time, Shreya did not even have to push or say anything to anyone… the whole government worked tirelessly and very efficiently. Yash never even got a chance to fight back… any and all communication with the outside world was blocked. Terrorists do not have the normal privilege other prisoners get.

The verdict for the case actually came out at record speed. Even the public opinion fell drastically as the people started to speculate that Yash had worked so tirelessly to eliminate the syndicate, not because of the good but because he wanted to get rid of the competition.

Not only Rudra… even Dhruv had testified against Naren this time… With all the evidence he gave and his testimonial, it was proved that Naren was absolutely behind the bombing.

Just before the day of the verdict, Shreya went to visit them.

In the tattered gloomy-looking room, she sat there opposite a chained and battered-looking Naren.

“Do you really have to push me to no return?” Naren asked the question looking frustrated.

“Well, you were the one who tried to kill me and you had killed my parents… so, there is no reason why I should show mercy to you!!” Shreya shrugged off.

“Your dad was the reason why my dad died… So, killing your parents was justified. I cannot just sit back after seeing my dad die…” Naren flared up. His eyes went red with the chained clinked as he tried to pull on them.

Shreya was slightly startled when she heard that…

“My dad never even came near you dad.. do not sprout nonsense.” She replied indifferently once she came out of her shock.

Naren let out a sneer before saying, “I am not the one who is spouting nonsense. Your dad died because he was being a nuisance. He just couldn’t let it go… it had been years since Girish died… why did he have to dig it all up all over again after so many years… if only he hadn’t done something like that, my dad wouldn’t have gotten afraid and killed himself… if only your dad had let it go, none of this could have happened… If my dad hadn’t died like that, I wouldn’t have even joined the syndicate in the first place and killed him. So, don’t say your dad is innocent… he is not. I will never forgive him…”

If Shreya was startled before… she was absolutely speechless now.

She couldn’t help let out mocking laughter as she said, “You cannot keep blaming others for your ignorance… your father’s suicide never had anything to do with my dad… ever.” Her voice was confident and absolute.

“Liar… my dad committed suicide just when Adithya started investigating Girish’s death all over again after so long… So, it is he who killed my dad.” Naren justified. You can see his emotions on point. Agitated and wronged.

Shreya said looking at him sharply, “Your dad did not die because he was afraid of being convicted… he died out of guilt.”

But she can see that Naren was not going to believe her with just the sarcastic look he was giving her. So, she started talking.

“I know you are angry with me because I brought down the syndicate… but the first person to start the whole process was actually your dad… Have you ever wondered how in spite of all the secrecy, How Girish was able to know about the syndicate in such great detail…?” Her brows arched with her question.

Naren looked up surprised for the first time… because this was something he never could find out. How at all Girish was able to infiltrate into the syndicate so accurately. Because their structure is such that there was no specific place or specific location with which they were ȧssociated. So, nobody can get in touch with them so easily unless they themselves want to.

Shreya gave him a mocking smile all over again before continuing, “It was your dad who sent him all those information anonymously. Even though he wanted it to stop, he did not have the courage to fully come forward in public… He did not want to be called a traitor. He wanted to share the same fate as his friends and not be able to get away with it by being a witness. He was the one who gave Girish the information needed to infiltrate the syndicate!”

Naren looked at her utterly shocked. He was speechless for the longest time when he tried to digest the things Shreya was saying. But when he did comprehend what she was saying, he shook his head frantically as he exclaimed, “No… you are lying… my dad would never do that… He is not a traitor… he would never betray his friends like that. Do not spout nonsense here just because you can say anything.”

“I am not spouting nonsense. And he did not want to betray his friends but he wanted to put a stop to all this… he could not continue doing this… SO, he did the one thing he could… he gave information to the outside… to someone who had the power and the integrity to bring them down. He gave it to Girish.” Shreya said sitting back.

“He would never do that!!” Naren repeated all over again.

Shreya said looking straight into his face, “He did… and he did it because he cannot live with the guilt anymore… one of the operations he had brought forward had gone wrong… terribly wrong. He was the one who proposed the job… but because of technicalities, a bus full of kids were killed by accident… from then on, your dad couldn’t bear the knowledge of it and tried to take responsibility by sending Girish the evidence… But he did not have the guts to say this to his partners and they got Girish killed. So, when Adithya started digging up again, he took his chance and actually helped my dad get some of the evidence…”

She paused before continuing, “He was holding on for so long because he wanted to make sure Adithya had everything he needed to bring down the syndicate before he took his own life… the day he died was the 5 year anniversary of those kids.”
