Annika's eyes blinked a couple times to find herself in the bed, she slowly sat up when Gauri came to sit next to her. Gauri was very upset, a frown on her face appeared shortly. Then Annika remembered why she fainted, she was suddenly full of fear. Her heart beat sped up and she was sweating. Her throat was dry, she quickly wiped the sweat off with the back of her hand. "Dee, I cant believe you hid such a big thing from me!" She was very angry, Annika was confused. "K-kyaa? Everyone pretty much knows..."
"I can't believe you never told me you were married before because you were drunk!" Annika's eyes widened, she was full of anger. She jumped out of the bed, "T-this can't be happening.. no this can't be!" Before Gauri could question anything, Annika had run off to the bathroom. Omkara entered the room immediately after she left and sat beside Gauri. 

"Gauri, I'm sure there is something missing from this. Bhabhi wouldn't have hid such a thing from you, you said she shared everything with you." He was puzzled, he decided to become a detective.

"This doesn't match up Omkara Jee! Dee never hid anything from me, something is definitely wrong and we need to find out." Gauri finally understood and starting to think in depth. Gauri and Omkara went out of the room to find information.

"Whatever we do, we mustn't tell Shivaay! I don't know how he will handle finding out Annika has a 'so' called ex husband." Omkara warned.
"Exactly, we can't tell a word or it might affect their relationship more!" Gauri walked to the main hall to find Daksh on his phone. She stood in front of him with a concerned face, trying to find any hints to clues.

Daksh: Can I help?

Gauri: How did you know my sister?

Daksh: Annika? We went to the same high school!

Gauri: Name of the high school?

Daksh: XYZ high school.

Omkara: Bhabhi doesn't drink so how was she drunk at the time when you guys got 'married'?

Daksh: Yaar, people don't realise all the time what they are having!

Suddenly, Jahnvi ran into the hall. She was shock. "ANNIKA ISN'T IN HER ROOM!"
"She's in the bathroom! I saw her 10 minutes ago." Gauri explained. Rudra rushed in after a while and said, "I've checked every room and she isn't to be seen anyway!" Rudra started to panic while Daksh was very happy. He was delighted in fact, Gauri gasped. Tears were rolling down her cheek slowly. "FIND MY SISTER NOW!" She screamed as she fell to the ground crying in horror. Omkara bent down beside her and comforted her trying to stop her from crying.

Meanwhile, Shivaay was at a very important meeting with his Japanese Delegates. While he was discussing his ideas and thoughts to them, his phone started to ring. He glanced at his phone, it said 'ANNIKA'. He declined the call and put his phone on silent but one after the other calls from her kept coming in. His phone was vibrating when he had enough, he grabbed his phone and excused himself for a while. He answered the phone in anger,

Shivaay: YOU KNEW I HAD AN IMPORTANT MEETING SO WHY ARE YOU CALLING ME!?

Annika was crying, you could hear her sulking through the phone.

Shivaay: Annika.. hello?

Annika: S-Shivaay, please help me.

Shivaay: What happened Annika? Are you alright!?

Annika: He is going to k-kill me, he's there!

Shivaay: Khon?

*someone hung up*

Annika turned around, her stomach felt twisted and her face was red. It was Daksh, he was wickedly laughing. He caressed her arm, she backed away. She was struggling to breath, taking a step back every second. "Annika? You thought that I'd let you go escape so easily? This isn't the end my love!" He pulled her hair as she screamed in pain. "STOP! PLEASE!" Her tears were unstoppable, her hair was being tugged and she was thrown onto the floor. "No.. please! STOP! JUST STOP!" Daksh bent down beside her and was about to misbehave with her again. She looked away in horror kicking him but before he did anything, he was hit on the head by a pole. The world was spinning before his eyes and he fainted, she was still looking away in horror.

After a couple of seconds, she realised Daksh wasn't doing anything so she immediately turned around to see him lying on the floor with blood in his hands. There was a shattered piece of glass next to him and she looked up. She was relieved, she stood up and hugged Shivaay tightly. Tears were rolling down her cheek, both fear and joy. Shivaay pushed her away, his eyes were fuming and he was angered. "HOW COULD YOU HIDE SUCH A THING FROM ME? YOU NEVER TOLD ME YOU WERE MARRIED!" He looked away in disgust, Annika was far beyond speechless. She couldn't believe what he was saying, she covered her mouth in shock but finally got the word to speak up.

"Why should I? I was forced into this relationship! If you have secrets then so do I! And for your information, I can't believe you think that about me? I would never get married to such a cheap guy!" She was angry, her heart was sore and she was glaring at Shivaay. "Why would I believe a disgusting cheap women like yo-" before he could finish his sentence, Annika had slapped him across his face. She couldn't bare it anymore, too much pain and too much to suffer so she ran. He placed his hand on his cheek, shocked that he got slapped by her, however he wasn't mad.

His phone rang after a while.

Pinky: Shivaay, did yous finds Annika?

Shivaay: Yes mom, and I found out something disturbing and I'm lucky I came on time.

Pinky: Kyaa? Did anything happens to Annika?

Shivaay: Daksh tried to misbehave with her but I've sorted him out and taught him a lesson.

Pinky: Can I talks to Annika?

He took a deep breath

Shivaay: She's currently afraid and isn't willing to talk to anyone right now, we will be home late.

Pinky: Ok beta, takes care.

*hungs up*

"Where has she gone.. I can't be bothered to look for her after what she's done. She deserves to suffer." He massaged his forehead in pain. "I can't believe I cancelled my meeting just to stop this when Annika wanted that. She's so cheap!" He glanced at his phone looking at all the messages the clients had left. Rushing, he left to his office again to deal with the delegates.

Annika was lost, she wasn't in the right state. Her head felt really light and she was feeling very dehydrated. Her throat was dry and she had no tears left, they all dried up. She wasn't giving a darn about anything and carried on walking until she heard people shouting but she still payed no attention. Seconds later, she was hit by a car that was coming full speed. She lay on the floor with a pool of blood as she lost consciousness and everyone approached her immediately. "Call the ambulance! Quick!"
"She's hurt badly, is there any doctors here?"

Meanwhile, in the Oberoi Mansion, everyone was quite tensed and was very shocked on finding out that Annika was a divorcee. Gauri's phone rang and she looked over and it was Annika, a smile appeared on her face and she answered rapidly. On hearing the news, she dropped to the floor crying more and was screaming. Everyone had sat next to her and asked what happened and she explained, they couldn't believe she met with an accident. Rudra and Pinky rushed to the hospital while the rest stayed at the home to look after Gauri. Shivaay had no clue what was going on because of all the bad thoughts he had of Annika and Daksh.

They arrived to the hospital searching for the room where she was admitted, asking each doctor where she was. They finally approached her room as the doctor came out, he didn't seem happy. "I'm sorry, the patient has lost a lot of blood and therefore we need someone do donate blood."
"WHAT BLOOD TYPE?" Rudra shouted as tears formed in his eyes and rolled down his cheek. "Anyone who is o negative?" Pinky and Rudra looked concerned as they didn't have the same blood type however, Shivaay did. "My son... Shivaay has that blood type!" She exclaimed but the doctor was impatient. "I'm sorry but we need it now so you will have to pay for the blood someone else has donated!" He rushed to the hall to get some blood delivered to the room so they could operate on her.
"Shivaay bhai... why isn't he here? CALL HIM CHOTI MAA!" He was crying, Annika was like his big sister and she could be gone any second.

Shivaays phone vibrated in his pocket as he answered. "WHAT IS IT MOM? IM IN A MEETING!" He was angry and annoyed already. This made her even more furious, "I CANT BELIEVE YOU SHIVAAY! HERE YOUR WIFE IS STRUGGLING FOR LIFE AND YOUS AT BUSINESS MEETINGS!" Shivaay was confused, Annika was struggling for life? "What.. what do you mean?"
"Annika met with an accident! Come quickly!" She hung up immediately in disbelief. Shivaay was shocked, he ran mid way through the meeting to the hospital.

PRECAP

"I'm sorry Annika... please don't leave me." Tears we're unstoppable rolling down his cheek. He held her hand tightly regretting everything he said to her. She suddenly starting to struggle for oxygen and he was confused and called a doctor straight away.
