324 The deadly Viper - 2
Brushing that smile that was filled with hope and excitement from his face, he called up Peter.
"Can you get the papers ready as soon as possible with the newly added clause that we discussed yesterday? I will get them signed from Akira tomorrow".
"It's already done, Mr. Vikram. I just need your signatures on the papers", Peter replied.
"Ok then, bring them into my room right now".
Five minutes later there was a knock on his door.
"Come in Peter".
"These are the papers for the financing with the clauses that you had asked for", saying that Peter extended his hand holding the file towards Vikram.
"Thank you, Peter. I will sign them after going through it again". saying that Vikram picked his pen and started reading through the papers very minutely.
Peter stood there for a second. He could have left as his job was done, but he had a lot of questions in his mind. He deliberated within, whether to ask about it or not. But finally, when he couldn't suppress his curiosity, he said.
"If you don't mind, can I ask you something?"
"Yes, Peter. Go ahead", said Vikram and shifted his attention from the papers towards him.
"Why are you taking such a big risk? This is a huge investment. If the project tanks somehow, due to any forbidden reasons, then our shares will slump like anything. The name of our brand will also go down".
"Don't worry Peter. That's not going to happen. I have confidence in them. Have you ever seen the track record of Delphie with their projects in the last year?"
"I have seen them Mr. Vikram and I know their business model has been very very successful and monetarily bankable, but I would still say, its a huge risk".
"Well more than the risk, you know why I have invested my money in here Peter".
"I know that and that's why I am a bit worried. This new game concept of project MONTREAL is completely new and God knows if it will be as popular as the existing conventional ones".
"That's the whole point, Peter. We are aiming to provide a completely different gaming solution, which I don't think any other company has dared to even think of".
"Maybe they would have, but considering the viability and feasibility, I think other companies haven't pushed for it much".
"That's what we aim to achieve in this project, Peter. Making something that no one has ever dared to. My girl has already procured the tech from Azmer Groups and I think it's just a matter of time that we can have a beta version of this new project".
"I will sincerely pray then that everything goes as per your plan".
"It has to. I will make sure of that".
"She needed the tech and she got that and the next thing that she needs is financing, which I will be providing to her".
Peter stayed silent after hearing that statement of Vikram.
Sensing a bit of contempt from Peter, Vikram looked at him with a stern look on his face and said,
"Anyway's what's mine is Akira's".
Peter heard his last line and he was somehow taken aghast. He wasn't sure if his role model had become so smitten in love that he wasn't able to distinguish between business and personal matters.
With a disappointed face, he turned back and said,
"I apologize if my statements sounded blunt and out of my cadre. I was just concerned Vikram. That's all".
Vikram looked at him for some time and said,
"I think I forgot to tell you one thing more".
"What's that?"
"What's hers is mine as well".
There was an extremely wicked smile on his face.
