He further accused her of cheating on her diet by eating canteen Pakoras and Aloo Parathas for lunch. Prof. Shastri tried to pacify him by saying that she had been working since morning as she needed to finish checking papers and writing her research proposal by 5 pm that evening. She even had a headache from skipping lunch. Mr. Shastri was not convinced and reminded her that she hadn’t even read the diet book he had sent and was probably using it as a paperweight in her office.
