Nani and Mami were fuming looking at Arnav who sat on the couch in a relaxing manner.

"What nonsense is this chote?..... How can you allow that monster in this house left alone trust the stupid excuse they gave..... Why are you doing this?....... And how can Anjali blackmail us like this after everything we have done for her. " Nani cried out and Mami consoling her and threw a murderous glared at Arnav who was taken aback by her angry avatar but composed himself knowing he had poured salt on their unhealed wound and their reaction was normal and didn't hold it against them.

"Hello hi bye bye ,Akash,speak some sense into your brother because it seems he doesn't care about out words. " Mami said looking at Akash who was standing behind Arnav with Aman completely silent. "Aman? "

Mami looked at them disappointed and turned her attention to Nani who was crying uncontrollably.

"Maa..... Manu..... Come with me to our room. " Manohar voiced out calmly and Mami helped Nani up and they walked into the room leaving Arnav and the others behind.

Aman, Arnav and Aman walked out of the house pretending they didn't see Anjali, Dadi and Shyam ease dropping on their conversation.

"Anju and scared that Arnav is plotting something against us..... He is too quiet and way too accepting of us staying here. " Dadi voiced out her concern and Shyam nodded as Anjali rolled her eyes.

"Stop reading too much into things..... They all want to be in my baby's life and look at how Arnav refused to allow us stay here but immediately I said I will never let them see my baby after he or she is born, he caved in...... He is helpless and now my baby is our ticket to making the family one again so relax. " Anjali assured them and yearned. "Am tired, I am off to sleep. "

She walked away leaving a sceptical Dadi and Shyam behind.

"Arnav is way to calm for someone who just saw his dead father come back to life and yes he was angry but that calmness in his eyes didn't much the anger in his voice....... It's as if he knew Arvind was alive....... Could it be that Arnav already knows and is preparing to avenge his mother. " Shyam shuddered as this thought.

They knew there was calm before the storm and it scared them especially seeing how the three As were silent.

Mami and Manohar's Room.

Nani won't stop crying and Mami condition was no different.

"Hello hi bye bye from now on I will never love Anjali the way I use to love her any more, she is dead to me and  I will reserve my love and care for her baby. " Mami said in a serious tone and Nani nodded.

"I love her more than Ratna and all of you and see how she rewarded me and as much as it hurts, Arnav's silence hurt even more. " Nani said.

"It's a shame after all these years you don't know Arnav. " Manohar said and both women looked at him confused. "You two were so busy with Arvind and Sudhadra's presence that you forgot to read Arnav's body language but I did and that is a man planning revenge...... I was worried at first but now I am not and with Akash and Aman behind him, I don't have to worry and I know he is planning something big but I will also get my revenge against Arvind mentally and you two will apologize to Arnav immediately he gets home understood but be prepared for his disappointment and one more thing you better not end up raising another Anjali when it comes to her baby because one is already enough."

Manohar walked out of the room leaving Mami and Nani behind.

"Sasuma, do you think Manohar is right? "

"He is Manu and I don't think I can face Arnav after my harsh accusations and he is right about Anjali,we won't make the same mistake we made made with her in terms of her baby....... This time I will raise a strong and independent great grandchild because I know Anjali is like this because of my over pampering and you have no idea how much I regret it. " Nani said remorsefully.

Mathur House.

Khushi sat down in shock looking at Aman and Akash and she turned to Arnav who was standing by them and stood up, moved closer and cupped his face.

"Why didn't you tell me all this? " Khushi asked and Arnav knew she was hurt and he moved her hand from his face and kissed her knuckles.

"My love I didn't want you to worry and please believe me it was eating me up for hiding everything from you...... Am really sorry. " Arnav apologized and Khushi sighed and nodded.

"So what now? " Khushi asked as she wrapped her hand around Arnav's waist looking at Akash and Aman.

"We make him regret ever stepping into our lives again. " Akash replied with pure disgust in his voice.

"Count me in if you need any help and I don't want to hear any no from any of you and about Anjali's baby it's not going to be easy to take away the baby because you will need more than video and audio evidence to do that but it will be easy to protect the baby from her if she can me proven to be mentally unstable to raise a child. "

They all knew she was right because Mr Roy had hinted about something like that.

"Aman? "

A voice called from behind and they all turned to find Suhani and Aditya behind them.

They both walked up to Aman and kneeled in front of him shocking all of them and they were also relieved their conversation wasn't heard.

Aman turned to leave but Aditya held his hand.

"Please son. " Aditya cried out and Aman's eyes teared up. "Maa told us everything and please give us a chance to fix our mistakes..... I really love you Aman and so does your mother and we admit we prioritized our ego over you..... Please forgive us. "

Aman turned and looked at his father, he has lost weight and had dark circles under his eyes a clear indication that he was sleep deprived and so was his mother.

He help his mother get up and Aditya also did the same.

"I forgive you two but I still need time and we can get to know each other better until I can decide to call you my father and as for mum you have to be patient with me, it will take time for us to go back to how we were in the past. " Aman said and they both smiled and hugged him taking Aman by surprise and he reciprocated.

"Aww..... You three look so good together. " Khushi gushed making them break the hug.

She walked up to Suhani who looked down ashamed thinking the good image Khushi had of her was now broken.

"Am happy you are my aunt and I know you think am going to judge you but I won't and I want you to know that because I know it's the reason you have been avoiding me. "

Suhani cried and hugged Khushi who reciprocated.

"Promise me you won't let your ego hurt my brother again. "

"I promise my dear. " Suhani cried out as she pulled out of the hug and Khushi glared at her uncle.

"I also promise. " Aditya said and smiled at his niece.

"Can we all go out for dinner? " Aman asked out of the blue.

"I can't, I promised to have dinner with Payal at her apartment. " Akash revealed and Khushi smirked as an idea binged in her mind.

"Sorry bhai, I and Arnav have to go shopping. " Khushi lied and Arnav looked at her stunned and Aman frown at her because she and Suhani had gone shopping two days ago.

"Khushi dear don't you like the dresses we bought at the mall?...... And why are you at this time?" Suhani asked innocently not caughting her ruse just like Aman.

"Suhani there is nothing wrong with shopping with your fiance and Khushi wants to and if they are going at this time then it's because they want to avoid prying eyes..... Isn't that right. " Aditya asked and Khushi nodded with a pouted lips and an innocent look in her eyes. "But I won't mind having dinner with you and Suhani. " Aditya looked at Aman who nodded and Suhani looked at him stunned.

Aman waved at Arnav and Khushi and Suhani and Aditya followed but Aditya turned and winked at Khushi who smiled and gave him a thumbs up.

"And the Oscar for the best actress goes to Khushi Kumari Gupta. " Arnav teased and Khushi punched his chest playfully making him laugh. "So what do we do now since today is a public holiday. "

Khushi smirked and went to the door and closed it as Arnav looked at her walking up to him totally confused.

She took his hand and led him to her bedroom and Arnav smirked as she closed the door and slammed his back to the door.

His pupil dilated knowing what was about to follow next and he loved every bit off their intimate and passionate love making.

After two hours of nonstop love making, Khushi laid on Arnav's back as both fell asleep exhausted and totally forgetting their troubles for a moment.

RM.
Midnight.

Arnav entered the house to a silent atmosphere.

He knew by now everyone was asleep and walked towards his room but halted and watched the door on the opposite side and smirked.

He walked towards it and entered to find the devil sleeping alone and he locked the door behind.

He walked to the bed and slept on it and poked Arvind's cheeks and he gradually opened his eyes and Arnav smirked seeing the fear in his eyes.

"Welcome to hell Papa. "

The evil glint in his eyes sent shivers down Arvind's spine as he remembered what Arnav did to him some days ago.

Flashback.

Arvind shuddered seeing his ex best friend walking up to them with some men behind him.

His head snapped back to Arnav who smirked.

"You see my dear father, when your wretched mother showed up at RM my security knew she was trouble and had you followed and voila, my suspicion about your supposed death not being true was confirmed...... So I made them investigate you and find out you had betrayed him by planting drugs in his house so that he goes to jail and you will end up not playing him the money you own him. " Arnav revealed shocking Arvind.

"I helped you when you had nothing and unknown to me you were a pimp who was hurting innocent women for money and framed the friend who took you in all these years and not only that you were sleeping with the shore I call a wife....... You also stole my money and run back to Delhi thinking I won't get out but thanks to your son, I am out and free forever but I won't forget your betrayal and am here for my revenge. " the man yelled  making Arvind flinch.

He signalled the men who rushed up to Arvind and held him up.

Arnav stood up and smirked at Arvind who looked scared.

"Arnav please save me from Suresh...... He is a dangerous man. " Arvind begged but Arnav let out a sinister laugh and turned to Suresh.

"I don't want him dead at least not now..... Make sure he is not capable of hurting anyone again but I want him alive. "

Suresh nodded and Arnav walked out leaving Suresh to finish his job.

They all started punching Arvind until he was bruised all over and after he was down, Suresh kicked him in the back so hard that a cracking sound was heard.

Arvind didn't remember what followed next until he woke up in the hospital unable to move or speak.

Flashback ends.

Tears streamed down his cheeks as Arnav sat on the bed facing him.

"Poor you...... Now you can't have sex which unfortunately for you, you are addicted to and I will help you increase you sex craving with this. " Arnav said pulling out an EpiPen. "This EpiPen is filled with an aphrodisiac which increases sex drive and if not released can cause excruciating pain and increase your body temperature...... You see you will be boiling inside and only sex can relief you  of it unfortunately for you can even do it if you want to. " Arnav laughed as Arvind tears kept on falling uncontrollably and Arnav injected it into his neck.

He stood up and moved to the door but turned.

"This is just the beginning. "

He walked out leaving Arvind behind and within seconds, the medicine started taking effect and he was trying to scream but not a word or sound could be heard and even his grunts of pain wasn't loud enough to be heard in the room left alone outside.

"Maa please help me. " Arvind cried helplessly.

Arnav went into his room and changed to sleep remembering his moment with Khushi and totally forgetting him torturing Arvind.

RM.
Next Day.

The doctor stood in Arvind's room checking him.

Dadi woke up and entered Arvind's room to find his eyes red from crying and he was hot.

She immediately called the doctor and now he was checking him as Anjali and Shyam stood with them.

"It's a normal occurrence in patients like him..... He just needs free air so please take him outside and if his temperature doesn't go down, call me again. " The doctor said and Dadi nodded.

Anjali escorted the doctor out as Shyam helped Dadi clean Arvind up and took him outside into the garden.

Garima who has decided to make Payal pay for abandoning her entered RM but halted in shock seeing Dadi, Shyam and Arvind in the garden leading into the mansion.

She run out of RM and Shyam looked up to find Garima leaving RM.

"What is Garima doing here? " Shyam thought and he looked back to find Arvind with is eyes widened in shock looking at the gate. "Do they know each other? "

Outside RM, Garima was hyperventilating at the shock of seeing Arvind Malik.

"My Arvind is alive!....... It's impossible. "
