Suddenly Veer comes there spoke ” No donations from my side ”
Everyone eyes were wide .
Pari : Why ?
Veer : I’m not sure that if your NGO is actually using this donations in building home for poor or using it for their own purposes.
Pari: Sir please come to my office , We’ll talk there .
______
Pari : Yes , Veer now tell me what’s your problem . Why you always don’t trust on me .
Veer : That’s right I don’t trust on you , So that is why I’m canceling the deal .
Pari in her mind ( No he can’t , How will I build my plan , No I’ve to do something )
Now instead of being rude she said softly .
Pari : Please Sir , Try to understand , Donations are very important . Please sir tell me where I was mistaken .
Veer : No I don’t believe , You’re trying buttering me . I know I’m a businessmen .
Pari in her mind ( Oh this Veer is very stubborn . I’ve to make him agree )
Veer was thinking that his plan is on the right platform.
Pari : Okay Sir you give me one chance , Tell me what I can do to assure you that our NGO IS not corrupt .
Veer : Okay so you’re sure you will do this , If you can’t I’ll change my mind .
Pari : Yes sir , I’m not afraid of challenges , Try me once .
