Chapter 23 -- Parineeti Working Hard
"I can't thank you enough, Parineeti." Nargis said as she was putting on her shorts and bra back on "I was so down when I was leaving Kansal's and this has been the most amazing day of my life! All thanks to you."
Parineeti smiled "You are welcome."
"Listen, how can I get another date with the boss?" Nargis asked, following Parineeti out to the lift.
"He is married, dear." Parineeti said "He doesn't date."
"That's fine by me." Nargis said casually "By date I mean, just ending up on his desk like today. Oh my god, he is mind-blowing. I mean, you know already but for me it was the best of my life!"
Parineeti didn't comment on that but asked "Has he asked you to come again?"
"No, he hasn't, but I really, really want to." Nargis got in the lift and turned to face Parineeti "Please, can you do anything?"
"I will try." Parineeti nodded "I will see if I can put you on his calendar later this week."
"Thank you, I owe you big."

Parineeti left Nargis in HR and came back to Vikas's office.
"I did notice she was walking a bit funny after her audition." She smiled at Vikas.
"Pari, what's on the other side of that wall?" Vikas said pointing to the far wall of his office, on the other side of the conference area.
"Not sure, Sir. I think there are storerooms or maybe a small office or two. Why, Sir?"
"I am thinking I need an attached bathroom there. We will see if it's possible." Vikas said "Sometimes after a good audition a girl needs to fix herself up before going out. The ladies' room in the corridor is not a good option for that."
"Awww, you are thinking about your model sluts, so sweet."
Vikas chuckled "You look very hot when you talk dirty."
"Well, there's an email from the LA agency we have been talking to," Parineeti said "would you like to answer that now or are you too tired?"
"Tired from what?"
"From the...you know...audition."
"No, we just talked." Vikas fibbed "I don't get tired from talking. Let's look at the email."
"Okay, great." Parineeti walked around his desk and calmly planted her butt in his lap "Let me find it for you."
Her white skin tight dress had a deep cleavage and no back. The two noodle thin straps that went over her shoulders went straight down instead of crossing in the middle of her back. Parineeti had beautiful, full breasts and the dress was doing a great job of pushing them up for a lovely, mouth-watering cleavage.
"Sure." Vikas wrapped his arm around her midriff and kissed softly just below the base of her neck "Take your time."
"Mmmm, you are a horrible boss, do you know that?" She leaned back and kissed his cheek "Here is the email."
As Vikas started to read the email, Parineeti took his hand from her belly and placed it on her breast.
"What's that?" Vikas said.
"Nothing, just keep reading." She held his hand on her breast. In the deep cleavage half his hand was actually resting on her bare breast. He let it be there and fondled her breast slowly as he read the email.
"Click on the attachment." He said, leaving his hand on her breast, and his left hand on her leg.
Parineeti took the mouse and clicked on the attached file in the email. It was a project plan.
"Okay, so they have filled out half of it and want us to provide the rest of the information." Vikas said "Seems fair. If we do this deal they will need to know about the Indian market just as they have told us about their LA operations."
"Yes, Sir. Do you want to send a reply now or after we make the full plan?" Parineeti leaned back on his chest.
"Let's send a holding reply for now so they know we are working on the plan." Vikas said.
"Ok, I will type," Parineeti slipped her left strap off her shoulder and placed Vikas' hand on her naked breast "why don't you keep me motivated?"
"Really? I am your assistant now?" Vikas said, but he didn't take his hand off her breast.
"Yes, and you are doing very well," Parineeti leaned back again and kissed his jaw "I might give you a bonus."
She boldly rubbed her ass on his dick before she pulled the keyboard to her and started to type. Vikas contributed some words and told her to use certain phrases, but mostly he watched her type and slowly kneaded her hot, bare breast, feeling it soft and firm in his hand.
Parineeti moaned as he kissed her neck. She could feel hot currents flowing from her breast to her fingers, but she kept typing.
"Send?" She said finally.
"Send." Vikas said. Parineeti clicked the Send button.
"Anything else or should I go back to my office?" She asked.
"Let's make a list of all the people I need to talk to in order to get that information." Vikas said "Then arrange meetings with them as soon as possible."
"Ok." Parineeti turned her face up and kissed him on the lips. He responded easily by sucking her bottom lip into his mouth. It was not a long kiss but had the easy intimacy that Parineeti wanted to develop.
Then she turned to the computer again and started typing "First one will be Rohit Sir, I am guessing?" She said.
"Yes, I need to talk to him, anyway." Vikas said, still playing with Parineeti's warm, soft breast "He's been letting the ball drop lately."
Parineeti moaned as he squeezed her breast but she kept working. She kissed him again after the list was completed. Then she went back to her office to start making the calls for those meetings. She was soaking wet when she walked out of his office.
Chapter 24 -- Vansh is Summoned by the CEO
Vansh was just picking up his bag to go home when the desk phone rang. It was Parineeti Chopra, the CEO wanted to see him. He said he would be right up.
He had been waiting for the boss' email reply since the moment he sent that email yesterday morning. Now he got the response in the way of a phone call and a summons to his office. It was either very good or horribly bad. He stopped at Parineeti's office. She was gorgeous and she dressed so sexy and bold that the whole office stared at her. He tried not to stare at her legs in her beautiful short dress as she walked up to him and led him to the door that said "Vikas Malhotra -- Private."
"Sir, Vansh Chaudhary is here." She said as she opened the door.
"Thank you, darling. Bring him in."
Vansh entered with trembling legs and was thankful when the boss told him to sit down. Parineeti went back to her own office.
"So, you work in our IT department."
"Y...yes, Sir." Vansh said.
"Not for long." Vikas said in a strict tone and Vansh's throat dried even more "I need dedicated people who love what they are doing not someone who is riding in two boats."
Vansh didn't know where to start defending himself. He had shot himself in the foot with his own hand. Everything was in his email. He could not deny anything.
"It's not...Sorry, Sir...no, Sir..." He tried.
Suddenly Vikas smiled. "I will transfer you to Still Photography." He said.
"Really?" Vansh was flabbergasted. He did hope that his email would lead to something good but he didn't expect it to be this good and this easy.
"Did you take these pictures? Really?" Vikas asked.
"Yes, Sir. Every one of them."
"Come here, bring your chair around."
Vansh pushed the chair around to Vikas' side of the desk and looked at the pictures with him.
"They are good. Very good." Vikas said "Not that there's not room for improvement, but you have talent."
A smile lit up Vansh's face "Thank you, Sir."
"Your email shows you have passion for it." Vikas continued "You did really risk your job for it."
"It was a risk worth taking, Sir." Vansh said.
Vikas nodded "I am a photographer myself, you know, or used to be." He looked at Vansh "And now I sit behind this desk and write emails."
The silence that followed was uncomfortable. Vansh didn't know how to handle this particular situation with his super-rich, super-powerful boss complaining to him about his life. He would have thought any man would love to exchange places with him.
"But you don't have to do that." Vikas said "When you have a passion for something, go for it with all you have got."
"Photography is my only passion, Sir." Vansh stated.
"Good. Give me a few days, we'll find a replacement for you in IT, you will do your knowledge transfer to them and you will be transferred to Still Photography."
"Yes, Sir. Please take your time, Sir."
"Actually, I will see if we can have you wrap up in IT and start ramping you up in Photo in parallel. Are you open to do some extra hours so your work doesn't suffer in IT, if I can manage that?"
"That would be great, Sir. I will stay as long as needed."
"Ok, leave it with me, I will see what I can do. I will try and move you into Photo within this month."
"Wow, that would be awesome, Sir." Vansh enthused "I can't tell you how grateful I am!
"No worries, mate. I am happy to help." Vikas said "Oh, before I forget, who's the model you have used," he pointed to the screen where one picture was still open "is she a professional?"
"Kind of, Sir. She is my girlfriend." Vansh felt guilty that he had forgotten to ask about her completely in his excitement for his own opportunity "She's trying to get into modelling."
"What's her name?"
"Hina Khan, Sir." Vansh tried to make up for his previous oversight "She is absolutely fantastic, Sir. Very good with her own make up, amazing fashion sense, and a great model, Sir. She just needs a break. She is working as a waitress right now but her passion is modelling."
Vikas nodded "She looks promising. Can you get her to come in and talk to me?"
"Oh, yes, Sir. Any time you want, Sir." Vansh was really excited now.
"Good. Let me see." Vikas pressed the intercom button "Pari, can you come in?"
A moment later Parineeti was peeking in the door "Yes, Sir?"
