Chapter-2

It’s Ezhil’s fifth birthday!

They were celebrating in a restaurant without Nishimura. He hag gone to deal a project issue that showed up suddenly. Magi and Sumire were there with some office friends.

All were enjoying the food, interesting games and karaoke. At the end of the event Ezhil cut the birthday cake and Magi was serving the pieces to everyone.

By chance at the time Akil who stayed in the same hotel for a business deal came to the restaurant to have his dinner. There a glittering billboard welcomed him as “Happy birthday master Nandhan”.

He was surprised to see a name like his second name on the board. When he took a swift turn to reach the dining area, he felt a flower bouquet kind of thing bumped into him.

Akil looked down to know about the thing that he dashed with, where a tall lean boy was lying on the floor as he dashed on Akil. He helped Ezhil and asked about his safety in Tamil as his usual habit.

Then only Akil realized that the boy may not know Tamil and asked in English, ”Are you alright baby?”

Ezhil smiled and replied, ”Yes, I’m alright mister and I could understand Tamil too”. He winked at the concern looking Akil and ran away.

Akil was shocked and moved by his mischievous gesture.

Moreover the boy exactly looked like him which made Akil stunned. Akil had the same facial features like the boy he dashed, during his childhood. The boy has the same face and bone structure except the skin tone. The boy looked little bit fair than Akil.

Akil felt giddy and took a nearest seat in the restaurant area. He clenched his teeth in anger. The reason was none other than the boy he dashed before.

“Mummy”, the boy called.

“What Ezhil darling?” replied the most beautiful looking Magizhi and she came to Ezhil. After seeing her Akil’s anger shifted onto her.

Now he confirmed his suspicion since Magi looked beautiful.

It’s his womanizing brother Anil’s work!

Anil was his younger brother. Both Akil and Anil didn’t have any similarities in appearance, character and in behavior too.

If Akil was Lord Rama who was known for his fidelity among Hindu gods, then Anil was the Dhuriyodhana who was known for his antics towards helpless woman.

All the Japanese ladies were shining as impeccable Porcelain dolls in the party. Among them Magi was shining as a moon.

Even the small pinkish pimples in her face were shining as a precious elegantly cut ruby stones for Akil. She didn’t aware of the fact that all men were looking at her and ready to fall for her.

Akil usually treated every woman as his sister but this woman Magi was playing with his manly needs. She attracted him like magnet towards iron. So Akil thought that because of her external beautiful appearance, his brother had done anything for her to share bed with him.

Akil was still wondering what’s in her that was so special and attracting all men around her including him to fall for her in a wink.

Even though Akil doubted her as his brother’s mistress something in him didn’t let him to think so low of her. That’s why he assumed that the girl was cheated by his brother and the child belonged to his brother Anil.

Akil Nandhan came from a well-established business family in India. He had born with silver spoon. But others didn’t know the amount of his hard work, sleepless nights and stresses he was bearing to keep his family in that position. He’s the only person in the family who took care of all the businesses single handily now.

Akil’s father ‘Vijay Nandhan’ was the only son to his father ‘JeyNandhan’.

JeyNandhan loved his wife very much. So he suited half of his wife’s name Vijaya to his son.

When Vijay Nandhan was 17years old, his mother died due to terminal illness. His father buried himself into businesses to overcome his life partner loss and earned a lot. He sent Vijay abroad for his studies, as he couldn’t take care of him, where Vijay spoilt beyond repair.

Vijay had fun in father’s money, while all the other students were working hard for their studies.

JeyNandhan was very upset with Vijay because he knew Vijay was unfit to continue and handle his business.

When Vijay returned to India, he loved a girl called Kamala. She’s from a poor family background but lousy and greedy girl. She wanted to present herself as a rich noble woman in front of others. For that she took loans as advances in salary to have parties and bought loans from friends to buy makeup things and accessories. What a perfect match to Vijay?!

The genuine version of this novel can be found on another site. Support the author by reading it there.

She got pregnant to get hold of Nandhan family assets. So using that pregnancy as a reason, Vijay and Kamala registered their marriage legally.

When they told these things to JeyNandhan, he was fully collapsed.

Already Vijay was a useless fellow. Now his wife too joined with him. Jey could guess the unfortunate future of the great Nandhan family very well.

When Akil was born Jey had gained some confidence. Akil resembled his grandfather much in both physique and actions. So Jey decided to make him as his soul descendant. He brought up Akil in a strict way.

Within three months of Akil’s birth Kamala was pregnant again with her second baby. So Jey took total care of Akil.

Kamala delivered a twin baby Anil and Anila and she was busy with these two and with her husband Vijay. So Grandfather was the only person in the family to whom Akil was so close and shared everything.

Vijay and Kamala took care of the twins, so the twins behaved like their parents.

Akil multiplied his grandfather’s hotel business. The three star hotel chains of his family became a five star hotel chains. His parents and siblings were surprised to see his enormous growth in business. They showered loads of pretended love on Akil. But as a genuine person Akil loved them whole heartedly.

Akil gave money to them whenever they asked. He bought properties in their name that made them even worse. Akil didn’t know about their greedy intensions well, since he didn’t have time to spend with them. His grandfather Jey was watching all these family dramas silently in the background.

One day when everything went out of hand, Jey warned Vijay, ”Why are you all cheating Akil? He is buying properties in your name but you are selling those for a low amount without his knowledge. It’s wrong. You should not cheat your own son.”

Vijay tried to interrupt him. But Jey continued as,

“Wait till I complete. Last week he registered a property in Kamala’s name. Its value is one crore in Indian money. But before three days you & your wife sold it for 75lakhs with Anil and Anila. Again yesterday Akil bought the same property for one and a half crore. Why are you all making him fool?”

Vijay was annoyed and said, ”Why are you always instructing me what to do and what not to do dad? Don’t you have any affection on my other kids, Anil and Anila? You’re always concerning about Akil only. You don’t even like me dad. You love only Akil. What’s this dad? We are your blood too”.

Jey was shocked to see his son’s emotional drama and stupid confession. He found that his son was a perfect criminal and diverting him very well by emotionally black mailing him. Jey replied furiously

“Don’t talk too much. I’m not a fool to believe your blabbering’s. Are you really my son? I don’t like to see your face. The greediness towards money of your mind covered your eyes. It’s not letting you in the correct path. Just remember a thing. Akil will be married soon. If he gets a good talented wife, then through her he will understand what real love is. After that you couldn’t coax him with your fake words.”

“My grandson is called as black cheetah in his business circle for his fierceness, do you know that? If he realizes your mistakes, then you will see that face of him one day. Try to correct your mistakes before it happens. Else you all will be in the streets for begging.”

When Jey finished his advice, Vijay was really shaking in fear.

After that incident too, he didn’t correct his mistakes. He did the same thing but secretly.

Kamala said to Vijay, ”Suppose if your father finds a suitable match for Akil, then we will be affected. So let’s select a bride who will dance to our tune before him.”

So according to her advice Vijay selected a soft natured girl Shruthi for Akil.

Jey too liked Shruthi as she seemed well mannered and good-natured girl. Hence Akil got married at the age of 25 in a grand manner.

But the marriage didn’t long last. Shruthi died within four years of marriage life.

To console Akil, his grandfather sent him to a world tour. That’s how Akil came to Japan during Magi’s delivery time.

He saved that infant in her womb and his mother. When Akil touched the newborn baby, he had realized his mistake of deciding to live an aloof life and leaving business world due to his wife’s loss. But the newborn baby taught him a lesson for life. Yes, Akil realized that how the baby depended Akil during the delivery, many workers were depending on him for their food and other necessities. So he changed his decision to continue business for them. The baby Ezhil gave his father some confidence in life.

He saved two lives during that accident in Japan that made him happy and content. So he decided to do help others till the end of his life.

He got many ideas from the japan trip and implemented those things in his hotel business that made his grandfather brimming with happiness.

But his happiness didn’t exist for a long time because of Anil and Anila.

Anil had relationship with many girls simultaneously and became a womanizer that spoiled their family name.

Anila was always getting money from Akil even after her marriage. Her husband was a gentleman. His self-respect didn’t allow him to get money from Anila’s family. But she didn’t understand her husband genuine nature and broke with him.

Now Anila was staying with Akil with her two male children.

Vijay and Kamala said that if Anil got married he would be in correct track. So they chose a girl and did marriage for him.

But fate played its part and Anil’s wife was a perfect replica of Kamala! She didn’t care about Anil. They had a son and now she’s telling that her son would be the successor of Nandhan group.

Akil refused to do marry again after his wife’s death. His grandfather felt very bad for him since Akil was alone. It suffered him a lot.

Grandfather had been bedridden for the past three months.

Anila told Anil’s true colour to Akil. She wanted her sons to be the successor of Akil’s properties.

So this was the reason for Akil’s misunderstanding about the boy Ezhil. He knew about Anil very well now. Also Magi looked very beautiful. Hence it’s quite natural to think Ezhil was Anil’s son.

Akil came to Japan this time for a business deal.

He wanted to showcase the Japanese traditional tea making process in his hotel. Also he liked to introduce Japanese masalas and medicines in food festival.

Recently he bought a palace in auction for 10years lease, in that he wanted to do interior decoration with Japanese traditional things and put a stall to sell Japanese tea, medicines and spices in his five star hotels. These were the plans he had to improve his hotel business.

He had done his research about this work here. Now Akil wanted to find out whether this boy belonged to his family or not. If the boy was part of his family, he planned to bring this child with him to India.

He called a detective service working for him and told them to find about the details of Ezhil.

“This’s an expensive star hotel. Regardless of that, if she is celebrating a birthday party here means, she has very good background. Why she didn’t come to meet Anil? Either she may be angry? or she doesn’t need any form of support from Anil? How can I handle her?”, Akil started to think about this matter as a business man.

What happens if the black cheetah knows the truth? Wait and see!
