I am not a gentleman by Harshavardhan C (top 100 books of all time checklist TXT) 📖

are in your custody Mr. Raj; and if necessary to provide protection from you and from your henchmen also.

But in fact they expected warm welcome from you; and to take your blessings only; and now I request you to be polite and don’t be emotional with them.

It will be most welcome if you are pleased to acknowledge them or if you are not convinced with their marriage, kindly return their academic certificates and passports so that they will never appear before you forever; and leave India once for all Mr. Raj?” Mrs. Jasmine finally requested him.

“Shut up you mad lady. I am not emotional and in fact it is you perhaps; and you do not have the qualities of an ideal mother; and you just behaved quite emotionally and mislead my daughter”

“Mr. Raj perhaps you couldn’t make out the difference between human values and your selfishness”

“You dirty lady, you don’t understand human values; and he is a bloody bustard, born to a bitch; and how dare are you to accept him into the life of my only daughter?”

“Mr. Raj, still you are speaking quite irrationally, forgetting your wisdom. Please try to understand emotions make us demons, while feelings make us divine. Now you decide by yourself as to which one you suit the most?”

“Nonsense, don’t I have a right to take a decision about my daughter’s bright future?”

“Who said Mr. Raj? Who objected you? And please don’t forget the fact that I gave birth to her after carrying nine months; and the rest of the things, my love, affection and hopes on her future are known to everybody” She retaliated.

“Knowing full well also you have performed my only daughter’s marriage in registrar’s office, as if she was an orphan against my will and wish. And you have made me fool before others; and created a very poor opinion against me in the looks of the people of aristocratic society.

Don’t think that I am a buffoon in the family; and do you claim and monopolize that you have every right to take your daughter stealthily and perform her marriage with a bustard? And do you think that you only know law, seeking the interference of the court to take away my daughter from me Mrs. Jasmine?

Now I have understood that all this is well planned in your direction only; and it is a bloody shame on your part that you have just behaved like a pimp, arranging bed for the boy and the girl” Dr. Raj lost his temper and abused Mrs. Jasmine.

“Mr. Raj please stop your accusations; and don’t forget that he is our son in law; and please don’t lose your tongue anymore”

“I am not speaking anything wrong you gentle lady. Is it not a fact that he is born to an unmarried spinster?”

“Are you guessing Mr. Raj? Or is there anybody, who said so?” Dr. Jasmine questioned him.

“Nobody needs to teach me Mrs. Jasmine. It is as simple as the stay dog, which gives birth to its off springs, but their pedigree is not known. Now I am asking you straight; is it not a fact what I said about the birth of Mr. He-man?”

“I am sorry to remind you to recollect our past. Don’t you know the fact that I am the daughter of an orphan woman? Do you know who my father is and of course his religion is? I suppose to love and marry me, you never asked me these things nor do they come in your way for our marriage. For your information you never asked me about my father and his religion. But now whether you like it or not I am revealing certain facts for your kind information.

My father is a foreigner and mother was in dating with my father, who was her professor and guide when she was doing her higher studies abroad. He is certainly not a Hindu, or a Christian, or a Muslim, but a Zoroastrian.

And didn’t we marry against the will and wish of our parents? And in the same way our daughter did. But for your daughter you are thinking quite narrowly; and what a wonderful justice for the first time we are hearing from you Mr. Raj” She put him in quandary by quoting her personal example.

“You are mistaken Mrs. Jasmine our issue is different. We both had definite parentage and social status and the society accepted us, but in the case of Mr. He-man public will laugh at us”

“Mr. Raj please don’t try to create a gulf in between them. It is for your kind information, Mr. He-man has an excellent lineage” She said firmly.

“Then tell me, who his parents are?”

“Without any reservations, I can say that he is born to Miss. Hasina and to Mr. Gentleman” She replied confidently.

“What! Another concocted story”

“Sorry Mr. Raj. It is not a story, but it is a fact cum truth” She said firmly.

“Is it not a fact that Miss. Hasina didn’t marry Mr. Gentleman? And is it not a fact that she conceived       Mr. He-man only after the death of Mr. Gentleman? Then how could it be possible to confirm the parentage of Mr. He-man my gentle lady?”

“It is quite possible Mr. Raj. And I put it to you that are you not born posthumously to your soldier father? Why don’t you think in that way that Mr. He-man also born to Mr. Gentleman posthumously like you?”

“Then where are the proofs my gentle lady?” Mr. Raj questioned the legality of the birth of Mr. He-man.

“Shit! No wonder even if you ask me to show proof for the birth of my daughter; and also whether I have conceived her through you or not?”

“Yes of course, I may suspect you also, if there are no answers from you for my quarries. Anyway, there is a lot of change in your attitude and behaviour; and you have developed in yourself self proud; and have become headlong Mrs. Jasmine; and that is why you have been cross questioning me, isn’t it?”

“Sorry Mr. Raj your accusation is quite wrong. In fact there has been a lot of change in your original identity since our marriage, but not in me; and for your kind information I am not telling anything new to this world; and I am trying to unearth the facts which have been buried in their hearts; and they have been great friends since their childhood and continued it for more than fifty years and more specifically till the death of                     Mr. Gentleman” She spoke about their relationship with highest regards towards them.

“Sorry I am not interested to hear your story, which is irrelevant for me, my gentle lady”

“You are mistaken Mr. Raj. It is quite relevant; and please be patient hearing; and it is my duty to tell you everything about them.

 

Chapter: 37

“Don’t take me on ride as if I am a toy in a showcase Mrs. Jasmine” Mr. Raj retaliated.

“Never and never I have taken you on ride Mr. Raj, but it only reflects you. And what I finally request you is please don’t curse our newly wedded daughter. If you have really love and affection towards her, kindly bless the couple and send them happily with your feelings and not with any emotions” Mrs. Jasmine advised him gently.

“Shit! How can you expect me that I will accept the son of a bloody criminal, who involved in the most heinous crime into the life of my only daughter? And as a mother of the only daughter are you not ashamed to perform an unholy alliance?”

“Sorry Mr. Raj, again you are trying to corner his dad. Please don’t belittle the pious and the noble man”

“Whom do you call pious my gentle lady? Is it not the Gentleman, who raped and killed the minor girl?

Is it not a fact that the spinster lady conceived and delivered the bustard, Mr. He-man without marrying Mr. Gentleman during his life time; and then what is her status in the society if not a bitch my gentle lady?” He pounced upon her with pungent words.

“Mr. Raj please mind your language. And learn at least now how to respect women?”

“You dirty woman, I know you are highly talented, or otherwise how could you trap the old man being in the guise of a personal secretary and got all his properties simply transferred in your name? Any fool could understand your strategy.

I still doubt that how could it be possible for you to grab all his properties? Oh! I have forgotten the fact that you were a princess of beauty; and didn’t you make him enjoy the heaven of joy with your company? And then how can you call yourself a pious woman my gentle lady?”

“Shut your mouth Mr. Raj; and don’t talk rot. After leading thirty years of marital life with me, how narrow minded you are to belittle your wife in the presence of your daughter and son in law? I haven’t thought that you are so cheap; and less than even that of a mad dog on the streets” She fired at him as she was seriously hurt.

“I am not wrong Mrs. Jasmine as you are the most sexist women; and why should not I doubt your antecedents as everybody is fond of you damsel? And how come you are just left un- attempted by the quite smart, beautiful and youthful sons and son in law of your MD, if not by the latter my gentle lady?” He again tried to corner her.

“I say stop it Raj. You have crossed your limits. Don’t try to test my patience. For you kind information I was subjected to medical examination about my virginity, conducted by a team of two lady doctors every month, while paying me monthly perks, till the chairman and MD of the GM Group of Companies died.

Mr. Raj, roughs only used to treat noblemen and generous ladies as roughs. You are even less than that; and now I could not find any menial words in oxford dictionary to name after you.

And this is the medical certificate of Mr. Gentleman, conducted by a team of experts who certified that he was a confirmed bachelor before he was hanged to death.

Mr. Raj I know pretty well that you never have any feelings; and that you couldn’t understand the humane heart of my MD, who always viewed me and treated me on par with his daughter, but your mind is polluted Mr. Raj; and anyway it is time for me to clarify all your silly and childish doubts.

And for your kind information Mr. Laxman, the youngest son of Mr. Gentleman, soon after the death of my MD tried to molest me. And you know that I am a doctor by Profession and I made him eunuch by doing castration”

“What! It is a heinous crime do you know? And how cum you forgot professional ethics you mad lady?”

“I am not mad nor have I forgotten the meaning of crime and punishment Mr. Raj. In fact Mr. Laxman deserves to be hanged for raping the daughter of the servant maid; and when the poor minor girl conceived and demanded to marry her, he did not hesitate to kill her by pushing her from the balcony” She unearthed the mystery of the crime, after thirty years.

“Then why should your MD became a scapegoat? Why should he confess before police his involvement in the most heinous crime? How could his DNA match with that of the still born child?”

“My MD is a nobleman and a perfect Gentleman; and it was perhaps to save the reputation of the two reputed billionaire families only he sacrificed his life. He knew that Mr. Laxman and Mr. Rahul managed the police and the Director Forensic Lab, and got the DNA tallied. Unfortunately this information I came to know through his diary only after he was hanged to death.

Mr. Raj and I still remember that you asked about the part of his son in law. Of
