After a brief silence, Ira said: "We want the rock quarry at Reo Hills that is in your name as a compensation . "
Just as he heard about the quarry, Ak's brows wrinkled in a tight knot .
'How did she know about it?' he pondered .
It was supposed to be a private secret project . No one! Not even his grandpa had any idea of the project . He was shocked by the fact that Ira knew about the project .
Keeping all his doubts bottled up he regained his calm expression .
He fell silent for a while before coming with the reason .
He tried to explain Ira: "It is an abandoned rock quarry . We are planning to donate it to the government for using it as a landfill for waste . " He lied .
"Yes, I want the exact wasteland," Ira responded calmly and chuckled .
Her laugh was refined like silver bells, it echoed in the room .
However, when it fell on the ears of Ak Jain, it contained an unrecognizable chill . The corner of his lips twitched hearing her reply .
Ak was contemplating over enticing them with something different .
"Kirat mountain would soon be developed into a private planned city . It is an imitation of an Italian hillside town . You should consider your options again . " His gaze turned to Vivan .
He knew Vivan was an architect and he surely had an idea of the grandiosity of the project .
But he was left disappointed as Vivan's eyes did not show any light of excitement that he had expected . They were fixed the entire time on Ira's face .
The rock quarry on Reo hill was emptied out many years back . It had become a wasteland from years of mining and quarrying .
However with time due to ignorance by the government, the place soon birthed some vegetation .
A huge majestic waterfall was formed on the hill . The quarry got filled with natural water making a pond .
The place became a site for many species of small animals . The water reservoir got many aquatic life forms . Exotic fishes with distinct colors filled the pond .
Losing a piece of land holding such beauty was a pain!
He wanted to develop it into a tourist location .
At the thought of this, his heart still could not help but burst into anger . Ak invested a lot of money to buy the land from the government . He also had to pay some bureaucrats
The quarry was one of the hidden property he decided to make a hotel on .
The Kirat mountain project was of Jain group, so the loss wasn't much . But this project belonged to Ak solely . So he would lose everything he invested if the quarry was given to Ira now .
He inwardly rolled his eyes: 'Ira, Your ambition can really not to be underestimated . You directly stepped on my dignity today . I will soon procure everything back from you?"
Ira wanted the quarry back this life . When last life they cheated Vivan by taking all the credit for his work, he was sad . The project was his child that he spent a lot of time and effort to make . The construction itself lasted for five long years .
The Underground hotel, the Earth scraper!
This life, Ira was determined to get it back for Vivan .
