Rich Brat: Sweet Revenge Of A Lazy Princess - Chapter 405

“You did not have to come, you know? I could have handled them… you needn’t have torn your face with him!” Shreya mumbled to Anand as soon as Ram and Anitha left the office.

“Yes, I did kid. I should have done this a long while ago instead of letting you take the blame. I stayed behind because I did not want to make things between us… after all, your dad still considered him his brother… but I never thought my silence would lead to such an extreme situation. I never thought my silence would lead to you being in harm’s way!” Anand said looking at Shreya with a sad smile.

He still couldn’t close his eyes at night thinking of what could have happened to Shreya!! That thought still sents chill down his spines… He would have never been able to forgive himself in this life if something had happened to her.

Anand walked towards Shreya and pecked on her head as he said, “Now… get out of here. I know it is your day off. It is over now… you don’t have to think about anything anymore…”

Anand left after saying it.

Shreya did not move from her place. Her face was not good obviously. Charan couldn’t even see any trace of all the laughter from the morning.

“Are you okay there?” Charan asked coming to stand in front of her.

Shreya could help lean on his. She looked exhausted. Anyways, she did not get much sleep and she worked all night. So, she was tired obviously. But more than that, this one conversation was also mentally draining. More than being physically exhausted, she felt emotionally drained.

“I am sorry, you have to see that!” Shreya mumbled against him.

“Well, not everything was bad!!” Charan answered smiling slightly. After all, he also got to see her defend him and Akira like a mother cub!! “Did I ever tell you? You look sėxy when you are pissed!!” He continued thoughtfully after a pause. His lips twitched into a teasing smile.

Shreya unconsciously blushed.

“Stop talking nonsense!!” She blurted out scolding him.

“I am not talking nonsense… You look extremely sėxy when you get angry with your cheeks puffed up and flaring eyes.” Charan said with a straight face.

Shreya did not bother answering him this time. She just snuggled more against him without letting him see her ripe cheeks. Shreya was not a shy person… or maybe she hadn’t had the chance to be shy before. But being on the receiving end of Charan’s comment made her slightly embarrassed. And with that embarrassment, she completely forgot about her previous heavy mood.

“Do you want to get lunch outside?” Charan asked rubbing his hands behind her head.

Shreya pulled away and nodded her head beaming at last. It had been too long since she went out. Anywhere she went, reporters followed her around. But the fervor should have reduced considerably by now.

This was the one point that she regretted the most about going back into the limelight. She could no longer roam around as she wished. Even when she was not particularly an outgoing person, she was not used to being holed up either.

So, she was pretty excited when she entered the Mc Donald’s near her office. She immediately ordered the largest cheesiest burger there was. Her lips grinned ear to ear as she looked at the burger served to her.

Charan couldn’t help chuckle at her antics.

Shreya couldn’t really be bothered about anything now. She opened her mouth to the widest extent possible and swallowed a huge chunk of the burger into her mouth. Cheese obviously dripped down the corner of her lips.

Charan shook his head resigned. He still reached out to clean up the mess she made around her mouth very naturally as he said, “Eat slowly… nobody is going to steal your food…” At that time what they did not know was that they were being photographed. Because she was with Charan, Shreya let go of all her vigilance and Charan was not camera sėnsɨtɨvė person.

But it did not deter their lunch. They got along harmoniously as ever and were out of the door once they were done.

“Can we go to pick Akira from school?” Shreya asked looking at Charan expectantly. It was almost time.

So next, they went towards Akira’s school.

“Madam, someone is following us!! They seem to be having a camera!” The driver reported to Shreya after a few turns.

Shreya let out a groan. Because her own car was too eye-catching and since she took Charan with her today, she took one of the company cars thinking she can be inconspicuous. But it seems it was just her fantasy.

If she was going anywhere else, Shreya would have let them be but they were going to pick up Akira… she did not want to make a scene in front of Akira’s school.

“Pull over and politely ask them to fall back… If they don’t listen, tell them they will be hearing from my lawyers tomorrow! Tell them I do not need to read any nonsense about me in newspapers tomorrow!” Shreya instructed. She also gave her visiting car to substantiate herself a bit.

Thankfully, the reporters had enough sense to back off. So, picking up Akira went without any hitch after that.

“Shreya!!” Akira exclaimed as soon as she saw her.

Shreya had to wear huge sunglasses to cover most of her face. But Akira still recognized her at a glance and sprinted over.

Thankfully, the rest of the day went on without any more drama.

Shreya went over to Charan’s house and the whole family had a nice dinner. Between Bharath, Shreya, and the kids, the dinner table did not have a single boring moment.

Adam was also present and the little puppy he bought was the new center of attention for kids. The puppy actually stole all the attention and became the star of the show.. It was pretty late by the time everyone disbursed to their own respective houses.
