"Sign these share transfer documents and handover the forty percent shares of Nanda Group that you have to me and I promise you will have a great life ahead."
The words of Gautami infuriated Praveen because what she has demanded right now was the ambition of his life.
He has used many legal and mostly illegal means to acquire those forty percent shares of Nanda Group.
And now Gautami wants to take this life goal and mission of Praveen from him without giving a single way out for him.
This attack on his ambition made by Gautami hurt the ego of Praveen very deeply that he forgot that his body has already caught the fire.
But for Gautami it was more pleasing to watch because she immediately shot another fire ball on the body of Praveen and made him feel more burning pain.
Gautami waved her hand and soon Neha and Malavika grabbed the neck of Praveen and made him look at his skin which is burning and melting by the fire that is burning his body.
For a moment in his infuriating rage and wounded ego Praveen had forgotten about his pain and burning but when Neha and Malavika showed him the condition he is in made Praveen to realize what fear of death is.
The sight of his own skin and the flesh beneath the skin burning and melting sent the strikes of fear of death and fading away of his life in the heart of Praveen.
The arrogance and ego that Praveen had in his heart and mind just gone in a second like a wind and in place of those now only the fear of death remains.
The fear of death is most liberating and cruel truth of the world that no one wants to face. Everyone wants to run far far far away from this truth while they still want to keep themselves drown in the fantasy illusion of life of theirs.
Praveen was also one such individual who was drowned in his own arrogance and ego that he never faced the real fear of death.
But now Gautami has shattered that illusionary life of Praveen and made him face the real true fear of death that had made many people make shit out of their life.
"Tell me will you sign it or die ?"
Praveen didn't answered this question of Gautami and just screamed on top of his lungs for help and to save his life.
"Fine then you can die peacefully. Cause even after your death I just need your thumb to get what I want. So you can say that in front of your thumb you as a whole have no value for anyone in this world."
In the face of the cruel truth of death, Gautami made Praveen to realize that how he is worth in both living and death.
It was not just a simple realization but it was more than showing Praveen how much he matters to the grander world where the only rule of either you eat or be eaten only exists.
The words of Gautami made Praveen to give up as he now know that his thumb matters more than him.
The surrender of Praveen made Gautami to smile while uttering, "Good choice."
With these words Gautami once again activated her Fire Bending skill and then she sucked all of the flames that was burning the body of Praveen.
Neha and Malavika brought the documents and a pen to Praveen taking which he signed and after which Gautami sent the documents to notarize to begin the effect of the transfer of the shares with immediate effect.
Once Neha had gone Malavika healed Praveen completely in both physical and cellular levels.
Praveen was completely astonished after he found himself to be back in his normal state and the burning marks disappeared.
Gautami took her seat and picked up her wine glass and showing the glass towards Praveen she said, "To our agreement."
Praveen also picked up his wine glass and showed it towards Gautami and took a sip from it.
After both of them finished the wine Gautami called Praveen closer to her and told him, "Tomorrow a man named as Gautham Nanda will pay a visit to you. He is the grandson of Raghu Nanda. He will beat you hard along with your private security guards to get back the shares that have given to me. I want you to record every action of his and then report him to the authorities and make sure that he gets locked behind bars for a good amount of time. I don't care how much money you use but I want Gautham Nanda behind the bars."
Praveen heard and understood what Gautami had told him but the snake of hesitation and revenge lift up its head.
Gautami noticed this and uttered, "Men never do the things that were told them to do easily. Fine then..."
She activated the Loyalty Mark once again turned Praveen her slave just like Ravi while his screams echoed in that place.
