RECAP: The investigation of case, leads Viren and Bulbul to Jay's wife Rosie in Mahabaleshwar, who reveals another side of her husband, that she once witnessed.
Now further.....
Both the cops are returning back to station and are busy in discussing the case when something strikes Viren's mind. He looks at Bulbul.
"Are you thinking the same what i am thinking!!" Viren asks Bulbul as he reads her expressions while Bulbul just fixes her gaze at him puzzled.
"If you're thinking that Mr. Jay may be the culprit, then yes." Bulbul replies back after a small pause.
Viren nods with a smile at which she further adds,
"But we can't ignore the fact that when he fired that butler for such a small reason, maybe he(butler) is the one who is behind all this! afterall he was fired because of Mr. Suraj only." She says making her point.
By now, they are already back in station.
Viren nods and takes out his phone, "We can get to the bottom of truth once we know to whom did Mr.Jay use make calls back then." he says seriously.
He then makes a call to phone call operator,
"Hi this is senior inspector Viren from Thane station.
.
Yeah i want to know call details of a number from some 2 years back!!
.
.
I know it may be difficult for you guys but please its really important.
.
.
.
Yeah! ok so the number is **********. Please make it fast and asap.
.
.
Thankyou.
.
.
He hangs up the call and finds Bulbul talking to a junior officer who brought her a file.
"Shivam i need full details of this man and do it as soon as possible." She orders the junior officer.
Officer Shivam smiles lightly, "Mam!! And about the task you gave me earlier! Here, all the information that you asked for." He says handling over a file to her.
"Thanks Shivam! Now get your new task done asap." She says with a light smile.
"Right away mam!" Says Shivam before he leaves.
Viren looks at her in confusion, "What's in that file! Any lead!" He asks.
Bulbul nods positively, "Yeah i hope. It contains all the information of Mr.Suraj and Jay's rival companies. I hope we get something from this file." she informs him looking at the file.
Viren nods and asks, "But when did you assigned this task to Shivam!! I mean i was with you most of the time from last 2 days." he asks astonished.
"Actually unlike you, i don't want to waste any minute during this case, so as soon as i got time, i gave this task to Shivam. Now please! if you're done inquiring me, can i read this file without further ado!?"
she utters sarcastically.
"Okay okay easy lady!!" Viren raises his hands up in air, shrugging his shoulders.
She gives him a final glare before getting busy in reading that file while he murmurs,
"Always like bull at a gate! God!" He says in a funny tone before getting back to work.
.
.
Here in Suraj's office....
He is doing some work on his laptop when one of his employee opens the door after knocking it, making Suraj literally jump at his place in fear.
This does not go unnoticed by the employee.
"Umm...i am sorry sir to startle you like this. I didn't mean to scare you. I am sorry." She says awkwardly.
Suraj grabs hold on his breath back and nods positively, "Thats....thats alright!. I am just so freaked out of all this threatening. I am sorry. You please come in." He says to comfort her.
She smiles lightly and moves in, "Sir your signatures are needed on this file." She says forwarding a file to him.
He manages to smile lightly and nods. He then grabs a pen and signs at all the places she asks him to. After this she mumbles "Thankyou sir" to him, at which he nods positively with a light smile.
As soon as she leaves, he sighs deep, "I really need to talk to Jay again. I hope this time he agrees with me. I don't want him to get hurt."
He says to himself in a determined tone.
.
.
Here Jay's office.....
He is looking at photograph clicked in his mobile phone, holding it in his hands. It is his and Rosie's picture clicked a long time before.
They both seem happy. He smiles a little maybe recalling a memory of his with hers. It is then he gets a call that brings him out of his memory central. He takes the call the next moment.
"Yes!!"
.
.
Alright! But i don't want any delays. Please make it fast and make sure nobody gets to know about it. Not even Suraj!Got it!!
.
.
He then hangs up the call thinking something.
.
.
Police station....
"I read the whole file, only two persons seem to fit the frame." Bulbul says after she competes reading the file, that Shivam gave her.
Viren looks at her keenly at which she further speaks,
"One is this Anish Sinha and other, this Tia Raichand!" she tells pointing at file, at the details of the two persons, she named.
He holds the file in his hands and speaks, "Hmm!! So these two have the motive to stop partnership between Mr. Jay and Mr. Suraj. This Anish has lost his tender to Mr.Suraj's company last year and this Tia!! She snatched Mr.Jay's business deal worth Rs. 50 crore recently. Sure these two persons are the ones we're looking for."
He says seriously to which Bulbul too nods.
"Alright then you go for Tia and i'll go for Anish!!" She says and turns around to leave.
But before she could place a step further, he blocks her way.
"Woah woah woah madam!! Hold your horses. You're not going anywhere alone. We'll both investigate them together. Remember Acp sir's order." Viren asks reminding her.
"We're assigned a same case, that doesn't mean we have to investigate "together" where ever we go."
She says emphasizing on word 'together'.
"Alright!! I didn't want to bring this, but sir also said that if during this case, if i doubt your skills as an officer at any point, then i can take over the whole case myself. Then you will have to assist me with or without your concent."
He says reminding her again about their senior officer's orders.
Bulbul closes her eyes in frustration and frowns, "God!! Where am i struck?"
She sighs.
"Fine!!! But i warn you! Don't interrupt or interfere when i am in middle of an investigation. Got it!!" She asks him grumpily.
He shrugs his shoulders quietly like asking her "When did i do it!!"
She doesn't say anything further, just moves out in frustration while he nods negatively smiling lightly,
"I am sorry Bulbul. I really didn't want to hurt you by saying so. But am afraid, you might end up putting yourself in some trouble because of your agression and seriousness. So its really important for me to be around you the whole time. I just don't want to loose you. I hope someday you'll understand this."
He thinks to himself and then leaves following her to the parking area.
Soon enough they drive to Anish Sinha's office, to talk to him as he was 1st suspect of case because of business rivalry. They investigates him about the case at which he finally utters,
"Officers i assure you.! I am not behind all this. Its true that this partnership between Jay and Suraj could not do any good to me and i am the last person who would want this to happen. Because i know i would be the first suspect, if i do something like that, so why would i do it?"
He asks smirking.🙄
"And still you say you don't have to do anything about it!!! Are you sure Mr. Anish! You're clean in this case??" Bulbul asks him looking straight in his eyes.
He gives her a determined look, "Officer!! Like I already said! I don't have to do anything about it. But i wonder why don't you ask Tia about it!! She has a perfect motive to do this all." he says.
Viren looks at him, "Tia! You mean Tia Raichand!!" he asks.
"Yes officer!! I am talking about her. Afterall Jay left her and married someone else and even denied to do any sort of business alliance with her, so why wouldn't she be behind all this!!!" says Anish.
"What!! You mean Jay and Tia were together before his marriage!!" Viren asks shocking.
Anish nods positively,
"Yes officer. Its true. Jay is very good in ladies department. His style, frank and flirty attitude towards ladies makes them drool over him. Tia and Jay were together for long. But one day he left her and after a short while he married someone else. Afterall no one can tell how dangerous a girl who is hurt in love can be!" he says smiling evilly again.
Bulbul's pov, "Huh!! First this Jay not only shouts at a poor butler for such a small mistake but raised his hand on him too before kicking him out of his job. And now! here is another side of him!. That he's a flirt and when he got married, his actions provoked his wife to leave him. Such a bastard he is." She thinks to herself with hatred towards Jay.
.
.
After a while, Viren and Bulbul leave from there. They already know that Tia might be involved in this case but after what Anish just told them, they are more sure about Tia's involvement in the case. Soon they reach at Tia's office to meet her.
.
.
.
Tia's office.....
As both the cops steps inside Tia's cabin, she flashes a smirk-full smile.
"Ah!!! I was expecting you two. Come! Please have a seat" Tia offers them to sit.
"So you already had information about our arrival!! Seems like you're blessed with good sources." Viren says taking a seat opposite Tia.
Tia scoffs,
"Oh please officer! Its not like that. Since the media and news channels revealed about this case, i always knew being Jay's ex and that business deal that i snatched from his company lately, i am the most easy suspect." She shoots.
"Well they say 'Beauty with brains', and now i see why!"
Viren says complimenting her intelligence.
Bulbul rolls over her eyes and sighs. She now looks at Tia,
"So why should you not be suspected?. Afterall there are two strong reasons for you to be behind all this." She says sternly.
"I know whatever i may say to prove myself innocent, it's all going to be vain."
Tia says with a sarcastic smile.
"Well that is not true. Maybe you can convince us only if and only if you're innocent"
Bulbul says emphasizing on "only if" while looking at Tia intently.
"Anyways why did you two broke up!! Was Mrs. Jay the reason!!" This time Viren asks Tia.
"No! it was his attitude and ego. I wanted him to merge our business but maybe being a "Man", he didn't want his business partnership with a girl. This must had hurt his man ego. I tried to convince him but he was adamant. After going through a long discussion or shall i say, arguing over it, he broke up with me in one single moment. Everything was over in just one last meeting."
she tells a bit sadly.
Viren afterwards keeps asking her some other important questions needed for inquiry while Bulbul is feeling both sad and anger.
"How could that man do it!! He's such a big businessman and being a victim of man ego, doesn't suits such a man. Poor Tia. Though she might be the real culprit but still what Mr. Jay did to her is not acceptable! atleast not to me. Every now and then a new aspect of his personality is coming to light, negative mostly. I hate you Mr. Jay Verma. I so hate you."
Bulbul thinks to herself.
After inquiring Tia, both officers leave from there after getting some more necessery information about the case.

Somewhere in same city.....
It is some dark place with not much lighting. Old cartons are placed all around. Seems like some abandoned warehouse. Some goons with guns are positioned in different corners. Some are just playing carrom board and some just goofing around. It is then a goon gets a call from someone.
"Yes boss!!..." he says as he picks up the call.
.
.
.
Don't worry boss, it'll be done.
.
.
Ok boss!!"
And with this he hangs up the call and turns to his fellow goons.
"It's Boss. We are ordered to shoot that man in one go. Just one bullet and right place(body part)." he informs.
Another goon asks, "But when!!"
1st goon answers, "Soon boss will tell us that too. It was all going great untill those two officers put their noses in the matter. Now to stop them, it has to be done as per boss's order or you know boss very well." He says a bit scared of their boss.
.
.
Here, both officers reach Jay's office for further inquiry....
.
.
To be continued.....
