Rich Brat: Sweet Revenge Of A Lazy Princess - Chapter 404

Zack looked at Meera who was in a daze. He quietly dragged her towards Akash’s office and closed the doors behind him.

Meera suddenly called him to say that her parents had gone to Shreya to confront her this morning… she was the one who told him that they went to Sri corp to make a scene. And Zack immediately called Anand because Anand had given explicit orders to everyone that anything at all related to Ram and his family should come to him directly and not take it to Shreya.

But the people who had dealt with Ram this morning were bottom-level employees who called up Shreya directly without consulting him. And thus the information completely bypassed him. And Shreya being Shreya had to deal with everything personally without telling anyone.

But thanks to Meera he came to know about it and he called up Anand and Anand reached the office in record time. But it was still a little later than Shreya.

But Meera couldn’t stay still at home and actually came to Sri corp. Zack picked her up and brought her to Shreya’s office. They arrived well before Anand ever came. So, Meera pretty much heard everything that happened in the room.

To say she was shocked will be an understatement.

Her surprise after hearing her mother was more than that of Ram’s shock. After all, Ram at least already knew in hindsight how Anitha was.

But Meera never guarded against her mother. Between her father and mother, at least her mother bothered to talk to her at least sometime… so, a person who was starved for attention like her, that little bit of conversation always meant more than anything.

So, she completely believed everything her mother ever said. She always thought maybe, her mother misunderstood something about Shreya. She always thought Anitha’s bitterness should have a genuine reason. She always thought maybe Shreya could have done something definitely.

After all, she can hear it in her voice that she knew of her responsibility when it came to Shreya’s mother.

Even if she did not know at that time what was going to happen, Anitha seems to have known the aftereffect of her actions for a long time now. So, instead of feeling sorry and guilty towards Shreya, Meera couldn’t digest how Anitha could have hated Shreya…?

If it were her, she would have felt so guilty and sorry for Shreya to even meet up with her. After all, Shreya’s mother had died because of her greed and vain jealousy. She did not know how Anitha could even do that!!

“Hey, are you okay there kid?” Zack asked concerned coming to stand beside her. Meera just stood there where he pulled her without moving a muscle.

“My mom… she… Shreya’s mother!! Did she really do that? Did my dad and brother really do that?” Meera asked in a whisper. Her voice was so low that it was as if she was scared to even ask the question. It was as if every cell in her body screaming at her to not ask the question.

Meera had never really bothered about the spat within her family. She never bothered about anything at all after a while. Because she knew their interests never matched.

But she never imagined they would have done things so low… She always thought they just gossiped and talked shit behind people’s back. Maximum did some crooked things. She never thought it would be so bad to extent of trying to take a person’s life… that too family member.

Zack couldn’t watch her beat herself up for something her family did. So, he gently brought her against his embrace as he said, “It is not your fault kid. What they did, they did it… You do not have a share in it! You did not even know… you are not them. They will pay for their actions… it had nothing to do with you! You do not have to beat yourself up for their actions…” His voice was more gentle than he had ever talked to Meera before.

“So, that means they really did all the things that were said inside?” Meera asked looked up at Zack.

Zack looked at the little girl’s vulnerable eyes. Even when he wanted to comfort her, he did not lie to her.

“I did not know about what happened with your mother and Shreya’s mother. I never knew about it before… but regarding your brother and father… yes, they did it. I was there when your brother’s people tried to kill Shreya… I also saw the evidence. And I saw your father talking to the people who were responsible for the accident just weeks before it happened. He gave them the specs of Shreya’s car and this floor which led to the accident and the office blowing up. Even your mother’s thing… if Anand said it happened, it happened… he wouldn’t lie about things like this…” Zack answered with a straight face. He did not sugarcoat anything. He gave her the fact as she asked for. Because he knew she needed the absolute truth at this time more than ever… And he gave her that.

Meera’s eyes went into a daze all over again.

Zack helplessly led her out. Even though Akash was not here now, he did not know when he will be back. So, he dragged Meera towards his own office. His office was actually several floors down. He let her sit on his couch and let her be. Because he knew she needed the time to process everything. He just made sure she ate on time but other than that… he just let her hang in his office like he always did at his apartment.. He minded his own business as always.
