Shreya's people got to work pretty quickly and their efficiency was top notch. While Shreya was bickering with Charan on a daily basis, the outside world was going bonkers.

Yash never even got the chance to breathe. That very morning she went to meet Abishek, Shreya made her first attack. She did not really bother hiding herself this time around. Nor did she trust the legal system.

She straight up took control of the media and released everything to the public.

When the economic crisis was happening, she took advantage of some higher management people falling and took control of a couple of media houses in the country. They were not huge.. but then she took over a couple at a time.. All of them were local news outlets that have a far reach in each of their own states. She did not touch the national outlets. Taking over something like that took a lot of effort and also would give her a lot of publicity.. and Shreya wanted to establish this under the radar.

Individually, the companies she took over did not have much of a market share on a grand scale.. so, they could easily be overlooked. But when you put them all together, Shreya controlled slightly more than half the market share of media in the country, both print, and television.

So, with just some small orders, all of them flashed everything she had on the Prime Minister. From his misappropriation of campaign funds to his under-the-counter dealing of handing over some major tenders of the government to his relatives or taking bribes. And some of the tenders were over quoted by at last double the actual cost.. and he did not pay them with his own money but public money. So, obviously, it gave rise to public outrage.

All these were things Shreya had found in the initial sweep of Yash. But since this was something that is normal and nothing too immoral, she did not take it into account. It was just money.. he just filled his pockets without really stomping on anyone too much.. so, she did not bother. But they came in handy.

The whole country was boiling up.. even when subconsciously people knew this happens all the time, when presented with solid evidence, they couldn't help be enraged.

And of course, Harshad took the evidence to file cases against him for corruption in the court.

And before Yash could even think about setting it right, W corp. pulled their support publicly too..

So, all she had to do was just show them the direction, Yash's enemies rowed the boat through the rivers without her intervention. And without Mr. Walia's support, he became a sitting duck. The very people who had put him on the top of the food chain had worked so hard to pull him back down just for a little benefit.

But Shreya was not finished.. in fact she had just started. The crown jewel of her blow against Naren and Yash was still pending. But she was bidding for some time.

She was just playing a rat and mouse game with them.. Even though she wanted to be done with them as soon as possible, she still kept her patience and waited for the right time to give them the final blow to maximize the effect.

Because of her hands, Shreya was inconvenient to do much of anything. And on a rare occasion, Charan was free today after a week.

Adam and Preethi had taken Akira and Akil to play today and hence Akira was bound to stay over at Charan's parent's place..

That left Shreya and Charan.

Charan had come from work earlier as did Shreya.. Shreya more like abandoned her work and came here but then who is going to ask her? Especially given Shreya was injured.

With a thud, the pan fell down from the counter crash-landed on the floor. Thankfully, there was nothing on the pot. Shreya was just trying to help by washing them for Charan but then for a person who was already very clumsy with the kitchen, washing proved to be very difficult with one hand.

Shreya stopped to stare at the pot as if it had committed an unforgivable crime to her. Her lips pouted and her cheeks puffed up.

Not that he hadn't tried before.. but Shreya being the stubborn person she was insisted that she was going to help him saying she still had one fine hand to work with. And seeing as she was not going to listen to him, he just let wash up the veggies and pots he needed while he prepped the other thing. But just as he turned his back, he heard the crash.

"You sit here.. and don't move from here.. I can handle it just fine as long as you do not get in the way!" Charan said sternly pointing his index finger at her seriously.

Shreya's eyes looked at him pissed. She really couldn't resist biting down on his finger when he was she was getting in the way.

"Shreya.." Charan pulled out his fingers and exclaimed in pain.

"You do whatever you want.. I won't 'get in the way'" Shreya sulked turning her face away from him.

Charan just chuckled as he pecked on her cheeks and said, "You just wait a bit.. dinner is going to be ready in no time!!"
