Rich Brat: Sweet Revenge Of A Lazy Princess - Chapter 380

“Ungrateful brat!!!” Srinivas spoke scaring the crap out of Shreya. Even when his words seemed to criticize, he actually had an almost teasing mischievous look in his eyes when he said it. You can clearly see he did not mean his words literally.

“You scared me!!” Shreya whisper exclaimed. She couldn’t help wonder how did she not notice him when he sat down so close to her. Her brows frowned inexplicably. But when she comprehended what Srinivas had just said, she couldn’t help but glare at him.

“And she did what she did to save you… instead of scolding and grumbling about it, you can just say thank you. She did it because she cares about you… and it was her choice and she did it for your sake! So, it was not your fault whatsoever!” Srinivas continued not giving heed to Shreya’s sarcasm or glares.

Shreya just snorted as she said, “Who asked her to do anything for my sake!! Hmph!! See if I pay her for this month… she actually dared to defy a direct order!” She pouted looking angry.

This was Shreya by the way. She never faced her grief head-on because it has the ability to paralyze her. So, she always delt it by diverting it… she channeled it as anger. She did not mind if she looked conceited or petty while doing so…

“Like I said, ungrateful brat!!” Srinivas repeated himself but did not add to it. But he couldn’t help flick his fingers on her forehead earning himself another glare from Shreya.

“I am not ungrateful!!” Shreya stubbornly pouted rubbing over her forehead. Not that it hurt in the first place. Srinivas flickered very lightly. But subconsciously, she still rubbed over the place.

Srinivas rolled his eyes but then asked, “So, you are agreeing you are a brat then?” He couldn’t help smirk at his own question.

Shreya just gave him a dry look and did not even bother to respond this time.

“Doctor said the swelling in her brain had reduced completely… they can pull her out of the coma in a couple of days… if she obediently accepts treatment, she is going to be good as new in a few more months!!” Srinivas said after a long time of staying silent sitting there.

Shreya actually already knew of this news. Obviously, the doctors contact her first when they have any update on Zeenath… so, she already knew of this news as soon as the doctors knew of it.

Part of her was really glad and relieved. But another part of her was scared shitless… because doctors said that after such a long time, there is also the risk of Zeenath going into an actual coma.

“I know… I am just scared!” Shreya whispered resting her head over her knees while her eyes lost their focus just the way he had found her in the first place.

“She is tough! And she is not going to miss the chance of gloating to you anyways. She literally saved your sorry ȧss… you think she is going to miss the chance to flaunt it?” Srinivas asked sarcastically.

Shreya knew he was trying to lighten up the atmosphere a little and distract her and it worked too.

“She did not save my ȧss!!” Shreya said resolutely.

“You can keep telling yourself that!!” Srinivas rolled his eyes.

Shreya once again pouted and turned her face away from him.

“I met with my sister last weekend!” Srinivas said out of the blue.

Obviously, Zeenath’s accident not only affected Shreya but also Srinivas…

He realized how much fragile a person’s life can be. Not that he did not know of it… he knew that better than anyone when he was still in the army. That is what drove him crazy in the first place… He had seen one too many lives perish meaninglessly while he was on a mission.

But he had forgotten it for a while when he had started living a more stable life. With Zeenath and everyone around, he had been looking forward to living his life actually. But this accident actually brought him back to the time when life gets lost with a snap of a finger.

Facing things like that, he suddenly had the courage to face things… he did not even know where the cowardice had actually come to him all this while.

And like Shreya had said. At most, he is going to get punched in the face. And in this line of work, it will not be the first time it had happened nor would it be the last time! But death is something absolute and you do not know when you might lose the battle of life… it is not in your hands… and he did want to be with his family before he lost it.

“Did she punch you in the face?” Shreya asked completely forgetting everything else for a second. You can see the gleam and excitement on her face when she asked it.

Srinivas just stared at her speechlessly for a while. He couldn’t really say anything about her interests.

“That is not the main point here, Shreya!!” Srinivas answered sarcastically rolling his eyes at her.

“For me, this is the main point!! Did it hurt??” Shreya asked once again…

Srinivas chuckled helplessly.

“She did not punch!!” He answered.

Shreya’s face fell instantly which actually left him speechless once again.

“I should call your sister and teach her some things first… If I were there, I would have first beat you blue and purple before even letting you into the house!!” Shreya mumbled under her breath.

He once again flickered his fingers at her forehead earning a glare from her.

“Don’t teach her bad habits!!” He scolded her.

“This is not a bad habit… this is standing up for oneself!!” Shreya said self righteously.

“Standing up for yourself does not have to be violent like you said…”

The bickering continued until the doctors came and interrupted them. But because of Srinivas, Shreya’s mood was not as heavy as it was when she first came in.. Except for her red eyes, it is hard to tell if she had cried.
