"Ma'am, You got three mails, One from Ms Sheshadri, Others from the core team, Ma'am" - Aru's assistant informed her through the phone while she was driving. Arushi's least cared about the Core team as she's going to reach there soon.

"Ms Sheshadri?" - Arushi asked her to explain her. 

"Ma'am it's the proposal for the new project about some ancient Tamil peoples... VANKA'S "- Her Assistant said to her and she stopped the car in an instant when she heard about Vanka's in someone's mail. It became very difficult for her to speak anything further, But she acted calm and asked her to forward that mail to her personal mail. She cut the call when that mail reached her. 

"Siri, read the mail from Ms Seshadri..." - Aru ordered Siri from her i-phone.

"You mean the mail from Anika Seshadri..." - Siri asked her and started to read the mail aloud. 

"Anika..."- Aru whispered in shock. And the mail Siri read shook her to an extent. when she explained clearly about vaanka's in a positive way, Tears started to flow across her eyes. Her concentration in the road was completely gone. The eagerness towards meeting that person touched the peak. She immediately called her assistant to get her contact details. But everything happened unexpectedly when some car hit her car from the back and Her head hit on the steering wheel with all force, And she lost her consciousness. 

**************

After Jahaan's entry in his life, he stopped travelling abroad and established the headquarters in the Bangalore. Over these three years, Jahaan played all the most important role in his life, In short, He stopped missing his mom because of Jahaan. Whenever he was there with her, His whole world revolves around her. His happiness lies in her smile. He couldn't get how he became too attached to her. Now when the Oberoi mansion came to an auction, He couldn't resist himself from going to that auction. He always heard a lot about oberoi's and now one of their properties came to an auction. He travelled to Mumbai purposefully for that. He came to the auction but when he saw Ritwik at the same place, He came and sat next to him. 

"Hey, brother-in-law" - Avinash greeted him. Ritwik passed a smile and sat comfortably on the chair.

"Started...?!?" - Avinash asked him. 

"About to start, The family having a very bad time after Tej Singh Oberoi, Sentenced to a lifetime in the jail, For Plotting against His brother's family and killing them in a car accident..." - Ritwik said while pointing his finger towards the tej's wife standing numbly in one corner. 

"Why someone would kill their own brother?" - Avinash exclaimed in shock. 

"Money bro... Tej always had an eye on his brother's talent... The time came, He dragged him out of the mansion with his wife and seventeen-year-old son before ten years... After that, His brother started to raise on his own support and became a huge threat to the Oberoi industries, So he plotted the accident and tried to kill all the three in that accident but fortunately their son, Shivaay Singh Oberoi rescued" - Rithwik said and the name shivaay Singh Oberoi stuck inside his mind. As he shares the same name with his father.

"Sir, It's the same Shivaay Singh Oberoi, who saved us from getting hacked by that company... He was an intern in our firm... You remember!?!" - His assistant who stood next to him asked him. Avi's eyes went wide with the new information. 

"What, Avi? You know him?" - Ritwik asked him. 

"Yeah, But i didn't get an opportunity to meet him...  Before five years, My firm started to get hacked by some MNC's, Over that time, i was in Kolkatta and the technical team couldn't even hack the IP address of that person... It was a life or death situation for our company... And the data are transferring in 3gb per second speed. That boy sent the virus along with our data which retrieved as well as deleted the files... Now my company is there because of him... But when i came back to Bangalore, He left the firm already..." - Avinash explained everything to Ritwik who became curious like Avinash, But Avinash had some gut-feeling over him. 

"Auction started..." - Everyone announced. Upto everyone's surprise, Avinash bought the Oberoi mansion which was not his plan. He more concentrated on the land which oberoi's own. But After hearing about shivaay, He really wanted to buy the mansion as an act of revenge but he didn't know why he was doing that. But he wanted to gift this mansion to shivaay and welcome him to this house from where he dragged outside. 

"Oh my god, What's happening to me? why i am thinking like this? why the hell i want to take revenge for him?"- there were many questions running here and there in his mind but his heart did that. 

"Rishab... Try to find Shivaay's contact information, I am going to gift this mansion to him..." - Avinash announced to his assistant. 

"Are you okay, Avi? 120 crores..." - Ritwik asked Avi. 

"If he was not thereby that time, My dad's dream, His office would have gone to auction... So he deserves this... I am gifting this to him, behalf of my father... He would have done the same if he is alive" - Avi said. 

"But..." - Ritwik started but Avi held his shoulders. 

"Ritwik, Your wife will become mad if we both didn't reach within three hours... So stop thinking about this, Come, We have to hurry up..." - Avi said. 

"And Rishab... Make it asap..." - Avi said to his assistant. 

***********

Aru tried to open her eyes but her head hurt her to the core. And her stomach started to hurt, she moved her hands towards her stomach And shocked to find, she was wearing no clothes. She opened her eyes in an instant. She found her in her inner clothing and nothing was there. Her instinct covered her breast and she cocooned herself. In one hand, her head hurting to the core, Where on the other hand, she couldn't get anything, What was happening around her. 

"If you mess with me, This will happen..." - She heard a familiar man's voice, She opened her eyes, which was half open and saw the MLA whom she exposed in her channel stood in front of her while gazing her from head to toe with a winning smile. 

Tears crossed her eyes, She couldn't do anything. She tried to cover her whole body. Over that time, She only heard her father's words when she resisted going the school when they were in Italy. 

"I will stand right here... don't worry and go... My aru is brave, right" - Shivaay said to aru while caressing her cheek, but she held his finger tightly and cried. 

"No tears, Baby... please..." - Shivaay wiped her eyes and kissed her forehead. 

"What if anyone teased or troubled me?" - Aru asked in a low tone. 

"Call your Accha... I am right here... with you" - He said. 

Recalling the past, Aru closed her eyes, Tears crossed her eyes, Thinking about her helpless condition. she wishes she could have physical powers like her om uncle. But nothing worked there.

"Acchha..." - she whispered and closed her in tiredness, She gave up everything. But soon she had to open her when she felt the most connective touch over her. Shivers in her body went nowhere when she felt someone making her wear her dresses. She felt the same when her father made her wear her dresses when she was a kid. When her hair grouped by that person, Her heart recalled the moment when her father combs her hair. When he held her in his arms, Her heart recalled the moment when her father takes her in his arms and made her sleep in his shoulder when she was little. She didn't open her eyes. But Her heart said it was none other than her father.

"Acchha..." - she cried without opening her eyes. Rather than getting any reply, she felt his teardrop on her cheeks and a kiss in her forehead. She confirmed it, It was her father and without any hesitations, she placed her head on his shoulders and wrapped her arms around him,  Her lips widened for a smile when she again felt a kiss on her forehead.
