Chapter 246 - Learning About the Truth (9) (2/2)

Lying to him was more difficult.

”Stop dawdling already.” Dad moved beside me and threw the cushion at Arjun.

Averting my eyes, I pondered on giving a chase to Eshan or not. Karan's name had angered him to a great extent. That was given how he had lashed. Though he hid it well, I knew Eshan wanted nothing more than settling scores with him. Leaving him alone in such a condition was starting to worry me. One look at my wrapped up the leg in a cast, and all my desires to chase him died down.

Instead of helping him, I would only add more to his burden.

”Okay. I'll start now,” Arjun said before he abruptly stopped. Turning his head, he looked around, his gaze searching. ”Where's Eshan? Don't tell me he went to find Karan now. Ah! You moron… uncle, wait for me here, let me bring your son here, otherwise, god knows which hospital we would be frequenting,” Arjun rattled on, ready to bolt out of the main door in search of the Eshan.

”Eshan went upstairs,” I said slowly.

”Oh!” Arjun sat back. ”Let's wait for him then. He'll kick a fuss if we start without him.”

”By the way, why did he leave suddenly?” Arjun raised his eyebrow questioningly.

Dad forwarded his right hand before Arjun. ”Give me your wallet.”

Arjun frowned, but he took out his wallet from his pants pocket. ”Uncle, I don't have much cash.”

”Cards will do,” Dad said, still outstretching his palm.

Why would he suddenly ask for a wallet and money? The train of thoughts of these people was too hard to follow. What they would do and what they would say was beyond my imagination.

”What's your bank account?” Dad turned and asked me.

'What? My bank account?' Did not I say, these people were hard to follow.

Before I could decide what to answer, he waved his hand and said,

”Leave it.” Fiddling with his mobile, he sent a message. ”Transfer 5 lac to this account. Do it now,” he ordered Arjun. So, the receiver of that message was Arjun.

”Are you in debt?” Arjun asked carefully.
