He called his bank, his wealth manager as he raced through smoggy Mumbai traffic....
She was heavily in debt, he wondered HOW the next month's instalment would be paid.
If this was orchestrated, thats the only thing he needed to dig into.
He called Citibank, the SVP answered the call "Hey dude... you missed that golfing gala at Saturday"
Shaan:I did didnt I
Shaan formed his thoughts in his mind.... he knew how to ask questions without revealing a thing....
"Hey Rahul, my wife's account, do u have a minute"
"Sure man"
"Can you tell me what the balance is, she MAY have asked me to make sure the Punhe Foundation loan was paid for this month... I forgot"
"Oh her Uncle's surgical thingie?"
Rahul looked as Shaan paused at a stop light, urchins begged and rubbed themselves against the gleaming VW Toureg windows...
He turned away disgusted... He was in NO mood for charity tonite....
"Life sucks for you?" Too bad dude... mine aint no picnic either" he cursed
Rahul: Hey looks like the whole thing got paid off in full and the lien released
Shaan: There was lien?
Rahul: What are you smoking? (incredulous, "dont you know your wife's finances?" tone)
Shaan was furious... the fact that she even AGREED to meet with the Gujral family wealth mgmt team was an achievement
It took months of convincing to transfer her loans all to one place....
Shaan: And your point is? (furious)
Rahul backed off "Looks like it was all paid in full two days ago"
Shaan: Dadi was mentioning something... but I wasnt sure (Shaan covered)
Rahul: Yep, its a transfer from a J Tripathi's account. Pune I think is the wire code...
Shaan breaked, screechy noisy... trying to avoid a lady trying to catch the 7 :30 Best to Worli
OMG..Did Dadi payed Khanak's debt? And she was ok with it..So much mystery..At least Shaan thinks well rather than being confused of all the situation around him..:)
ReplyDeleteLooking forward and thank you for writing a superb update! :)
i thought Shaan would do this.. now who is J Tripathi?? waiting..
ReplyDeletehe is smart and has all the people for connectivity........did dadi pay it off by the trust account? as pune is connected to the trust....its the only way......thanks aditi :-)
ReplyDeleteomggggg!!! she clearedher debt n did she allow it? its so shocking plus who is J Tripathi now lol! this is gettin so interesting :D
ReplyDeletegod he must be more angry now for so many reasons but ek baat sahi thi ritu said when she had a baby khanak will be willing to share the gujral wealth n if dadi has helped then she kinda accepted the money :))))
thanks aditee for back to back updates they are so interesting!
ooohhh so shan is going on right track :)
ReplyDeletewhat ? dadi paid it off its no surprise but Khanak agreed to it is a BIG surprise :P
she quit her job she agreed to pay all her loans by dadi but ofcourse by trust WOW she is sacrificing soooo much for this baby bcoz she loves the baby :)
wen will shan sacrifice for khanak or baby ? :P
waiting for this too
update soon
Khanak's loan has been paid off from another person's account must have been a shocking revelation for Shaan..........what is he going to do next? loving this a lot Aditee!! wonder what his reaction will be like when he comes to know why Khanak had taken these extreme steps!!
ReplyDeleteI too thought he would find out about her bank loans and call the bank and wealth manager.
ReplyDeleteDadi helped her come out of her debt she accepted to it as they planned together!
Its interesting how Shantanu is trying to figure out what is going on i want him to go to Khanak though Dadi might tell him if he asked her. Is Khanak planning to comeback on her own or will he find her & make her come..
She quit her job due to work pressure and since Dadi has cleared her dues she need not be too much worried about her debt.
Eagerly waiting for next part!
Thanks & Loads of Love <3 <3
Aditee lovely update
ReplyDeleteWow Shantanu is going on right track :=)
J Tripathi is Dadi I guess and she paid Khanak'a full loan 2 days back and I surprised Khanak accepted Dadi paying her debt
Will Shantanu go and talk to Dadi
Eagerly waiting for next update
wow love this update, Shantanu is gonna explode
ReplyDeleteso Dadi was a Tripathi before Gujral.. loving it...
