A few moments earlier,
Arya had just ended an urgent call from the office. Even though Rohit had confidently claimed he could fix the server isue within an hour, but her experience told her otherwise.
She quickly looped in her team for remote work-from-home support and even scheduled quick video interviews for two backup candidates, just in case he failed.
She glanced at the time. 7:30 PM. The banquet was scheduled for 9:00 PM, so there was still room to breathe.
She checked herself in the mirror, and smiled, then recalled Rohit. 'Let's check on that loser and see if he's as good as he claims.'
The villa was quiet now. Everyone else had already left for the venue. Only the maids remained downstairs and Rohit was still holed up in his room.
Perfect opportunity to tease him a bit while checking his progress.
She gave her reflection one last approving glance and stepped out.
But when she reached Rohit's open door, the sight stopped her cold.
He wasn't alone.
