Chapter 1 - :Tragic Tale of Pride, Pain, and Unexpected Love

• The_ Boss's Daughter:Ananya Roy was known across the city as the powerful daughter of Arindam Roy, the founder and CEO of Roy Infotech Pvt. Ltd. She was elegant, intelligent, and carried an aura of authority that made employees straighten their backs when she entered the office.Every day, just like any other day, she arrived at the glass building at exactly 9:00 a.m. Her heels echoed sharply against the marble floor as she walked to her cabin. She believed in discipline, perfection, and control.That morning seemed ordinary.She opened her laptop, sipped her black coffee, and began reviewing reports.But fate had already written something unexpected for her.

•The_Sudden Disaster:Suddenly, a loud voice echoed from the IT department.

"Ma'am! Something is wrong!"

Within minutes, chaos spread through the office. Every computer screen turned black. Red warning signs flashed everywhere. Files were disappearing. Systems were crashing.

A virus attack.

Panic filled the air. Employees whispered anxiously. Some tried restarting the systems. Others called technical support.

No one could fix it.

Ananya's patience snapped.

She stormed out of her cabin, anger blazing in her eyes.

"You all are useless!" she shouted. "You can't even fix a simple virus? What are we paying you for?"

Her words cut through the room like a blade. Silence followed. No one dared to reply.

•The_ Cleaning Boy:Just like every other day, a young man named Rohan entered the office quietly with a cleaning cart. He wore a simple uniform. His head was slightly lowered, and his presence usually went unnoticed.

But that day, he noticed something different.

The office wasn't filled with the usual keyboard sounds. Instead, there was fear.

As he mopped the floor, his eyes accidentally glanced at a computer screen.

His face changed.

He recognized the virus immediately.

He hesitated for a moment… then gathered courage.

He slowly approached Ananya.

"Ma'am… may I try to fix it?"

The entire office burst into soft laughter.

Ananya looked at him with disbelief.

"You?" she smirked coldly. "You're just a cleaner. What will you do?"

Rohan swallowed his pride but stood firm.

"Please, ma'am. Just give me one chance."

There was something in his voice — confidence mixed with quiet pain.

Ananya, half amused and half desperate, said sarcastically, "Fine. Go ahead. Let's see your miracle."

•The _Miracle:

Rohan sat at the main system.

His fingers moved swiftly across the keyboard. Commands ran rapidly. Codes flashed on the screen. He isolated the infected files, removed malicious scripts, restored backups, and secured the firewall.

Within thirty minutes…

The screens came back to life.

Systems rebooted.

Files were restored.

The office gasped.

It was impossible.

The virus was completely gone.

Ananya stood frozen.

"How… how did you do this?" she asked, her voice no longer proud, but curious.

Rohan slowly stood up.

"I'm a Computer Science Engineer," he said softly.

Silence filled the room.

"I graduated with distinction. But I never got a job. My father fell sick. We had debts. I had to earn money… so I took this job."

There was no bitterness in his tone. Only quiet resignation.

For the first time, Ananya felt something unfamiliar.

Shame.

•The _Change:

That night, Ananya couldn't sleep.

His words echoed in her mind.

'I had to earn money… so I took this job.'

She remembered her harsh words.

"You are useless."

The next morning, she called Rohan to her cabin.

"I'm sorry," she said gently.

It was the first time in her life she had apologized to an employee.

"I want you to join our IT department as a senior analyst."

Rohan's eyes filled with tears.

Days turned into weeks.

They began working together. Late-night meetings turned into long conversations. They discovered shared dreams, shared struggles, and hidden fears.

Ananya saw his intelligence.

Rohan saw her kindness beneath the pride.

Love slowly bloomed — not dramatic, not sudden — but deep and real.

Against society's whispers and family objections, they stood together.

They married.

•The _Tragedy and the Forever:

But life does not spare happiness without testing it.

Years later, when Roy Infotech had grown into a multinational company under their joint leadership, a car accident changed everything.

Rohan was returning home after securing a massive international deal.

The rain was heavy.

The road was slippery.

The call came at midnight.

Ananya's world shattered.

The man who once fixed her broken systems… could not survive a broken fate.

The office screens were bright.

The company was successful.

But her heart was empty.

She kept his chair untouched in the IT department.

Every year, on the day of the virus attack, she told new employees his story.

Not about love.

Not about marriage.

But about respect.

And humility.

She never remarried.

Because some loves are not meant to last long —

they are meant to change you forever.

*MORAL OF THE STORY: Talent can exist in the most unexpected places and Success means nothing without kindness.
