Everyone was looking between Arti and Riddhima...

"Battameez...you can't even respect elders....what kind of teachings has your father giv-!!" Arti started but cut off by a slap....and she fell down due to its force.... everyone gasped

"Dare you talk about my father...You bitch!!!" Riddhima said gritting her teeth...

"I will speak...but everyone knows what you did and how you made my father beg for mercy and now you are earning unfair profit!!! Don't you think you are the bitch!!!!" Arti yelled back

While Riddhima chuckled darkly saying," from Being a bichaari to being an absolute bitch I'm everything You don't ever wanna see!"

She then grabbed hold of Arti's hair in her fist and dragged her all the way towards the entrance.....and shoved her to the floor.....arti looked at her

"Look at my shoes baby.....You belong there.....down there!!" Riddhima said smirking and turned on her heels and went inside....

"Riddhima...the kind of disrespect you showed towards My fiancee and Abhi Uncle is just unacceptable behaviour! Apologize!!" Ranveer said coldly....while Aliya gasped at his choice of words and tone... Riddhima stood there shocked

"But bhai! I just-'' but Ranveer just cut her off

"What wrong did Abhi uncle say...he tried telling you! That you are being cruel to an old man! Who is almost your father's age!! Not even considerate enough....you made him beg for the deal!what difference is between you and Vansh!??"Ranveer asked with an Angry tone laced with Disappointment

"And you grabbed that girl by her hairs who tried speaking for her father and shoved her out of the Resort Premises...this kind of behaviour is not acceptable Riddhima!??" Angad said and maintained a stern look when she looked at him hopefully...Mayank tried speaking but She signalled him to shut up......and she turned to look at Angre....he just turned his face to the other and stormed out of the room with Ishani following him.....and Ishani turned and gave a apologetic look to Riddhima before running behind Angrey... gulping down the large lump in her throat....

"Riddh-" vansh started to come towards her but got cut by

"It's ok Vansh...I'll do as he said......Sorry...Aliya... Sorry Uncle!" She croaked out between her silent sobs and ran out of the room

When Ranveer and Angad were about to go different ways........But Aliya caught them by their wrist and
"What do you think you were doing Ranvi!!? Who do you think you are!? 'My fiancee' " she said sarcastically..... seriously?? Am I not her bhabhi??? What kind of tone did you use right now!!?"Aliya questioned Ranveer

"How about we put it this way....how can she disrespect both of you when she is actually wrong to make that poor old man beg for the deal!?'' Ranveer retorted

"When elders correct her...she must have a habit of listening to them rather than disrespecting them.....and bhabhi she's turning more and more Arrogant day by day!!" Angad continued

"Oh as if Mr.Sehgal Here isn't much of an Arrogant person"she said pointing towards Ranveer....."And yeah what wrong did she say when it's her company's affair....we were wrong to interfere....." Aliya continued

"But-" Ranveer was cut by

"Oh...if you are intending to tell me it was wrong to say so to me...then let me inform you Mr.Sehgal...You have already done that to me 3 times....and I don't mind because relationship is all about respecting each others privacy...so if you say it's correct....but if she says she's wrong!? Hypocrite much!? Aren't you Ranveer??" Aliya mocked

He and Angad stood there speechless....
"And what about you!? Standing there and glaring at her as if she were fucking criminal?? Can't you even support her when she looked at you with those hopeful eyes...and you just turned her down??" Aliya questioned Angad and he wasn't able to say any reason about his behaviour...

"You know what Ranveer.....just control you stupid temper!! She's hurt...and thanks to you!! You both...made her cry at this special day....not even considering she was sick yesterday..wow!! Three cheers to brothers......the responsible brothers!? Rudra Uncle ko kya jawab dhoge ???And yeah Be ready to face his wrath!" She said and just went off with her parents and Rhea leaving Ranveer , Vansh , Angad , Aryan And Siya , Bani and Veer

While Vansh just gave look of disbelief to Ranveer and went out along with Aryan and Siya following him....

"Unbelievable Ranveer....you hurt your sister whom you once treated like a princess and claimed to love unconditionally.....and Angad!? Highly disappointed....''Bani scoffed and went outside along with Veeranshu....
While Ranveer and Angad stood there in guilt....

_______________Time Skip______________
5pm:

Riddhima's Outfit:

Everyone was at the beach party organised by Ranveer and Angad

(*Deep breath*) I'm currently at the beach precisely at the bar... Little far from the ear deafening music Sipping my Sex on the beach

.....and being aloof....from everyone......what a luck na!? Aaj kitna special day thaa....aur ab dekho! Ekdum irritating......
"Chalo yaar thoda paani mei khelte hai!? " Mayank said....

"Tum jaao...mujhe interest nahi hai!!" I shrugged....

''Okay! You don't know what you are missing!" He said and ran off...but not before throwing his shirt on my face....and giving his phone to me....I just shook my head at his childish excitement...

________________Time Skip_____________

Pata nahi yeh vansh kaha chala gaya....even after a hour he is not here....
So I walked into the crowd bit tipsy....as I neared the centre of the party.....the music became louder......I came across many people and also some known people but I made sure they don't see me....I just used my extra large hat to hide my face......it's almost 7 now...and this guy is nowhere.....that's when I saw him..... pinning someone's hands above her head and pressing himself on a girl as she kissed him....
I neared them to see....Arti and him standing so close.....
I heard something break inside me..... crumbling into million pieces......tears made way through my cheeks.....I just turned and ran off.......

And that's when I hit someone's chest.....I looked up to see....Karthik?? Here?
He smiled softly
" Hi! Riddhima?" He chirped

I said a awkward hi....he frowned and kept two fingers under my chin and lifted my face...
"Yeh-yeh...tum ro rahi ho Riddhima??what happened!? What's wrong??" He asked....I was trying so hard not to break down....but he came forward...and hugged me..... patting my back....that's it I couldn't hold back anymore and just burst into tears......

I was a sobbing mess now..... sniffling and hiccups.... continuously....he took me in a side hug and walked forward and made me sit by a bar counter......

"Riddhima Relax....chalo...aasu nahi Baby....please bataao kya problem hai?!'' he said sweetly....

But I cried more...I don't know I just couldn't stop.....

''accha...accha... Riddhima...let's have a drink first and then we will talk it out okay??!" He asked...and I nodded...
He bought 2 grey goose bottles

I just grabbed that from him...popped it open and gulped it in a go.....my throat burning like it was on 🔥....he...was standing with an open mouth...I was Irritated.....I just stumbled and grabbed the next bottle and started gulping when he just grabbed it from my hand

Riddhima's POV ends

"Kyaa!? Kya kar rahe hooooo.....'' she slurred... stumbling....she's drunk....
This is just the opportunity I needed.....I smirked and
"Riddhima baby ..chalo!? Ghar chale??" I asked
"Haa.....weeee!" She suddenly started screaming...I put my hand on her mouth to shut her ......bit she's wriggling......so I kinda dragged her aside.....and took out the chloroform soaked handkerchief and put it on her mouth....and she fainted
Good! I smirked to myself...and carried her out of the party........

Karthik's POV ends

Other Side of the Party:
Ranveer and Angad were still standing looking at eachother.....
"Babu! Abhi bhi ghusse mei hai!'' Ranveer sighed

"Kya kare ab Ranveer!?" Angad asked

"Mujhe kaise maalum hoga yaar...sab kuch toh try kar liyaa...." Ranveer said

"Door muh pe close kardiya thaa....sab teri vajah se! Kya zaroorat thi usko daantne ki!?" Angad said

"Arre....tu bhi toh vahi thaa...muh mod liya toh mei kya karu?? Tu bhi toh kuch kar saktha tha na!!" Ranveer argued...only to be smacked on the shoulder by Aliya

"Ow" he winced....while Rhea , Siya ,Ishani , Angre sat there sipping Cosmo, Shirley Temple , Blue Curacao , Negroni respectively watching the banter going on between Aliya , Ranveer and Angad

Cosmopolitan / Cosmo (alcoholic cocktail) -->for Rhea

Shirley Temple (non-alcoholic cocktail)--->for Siya

Blue Curacao (light alcoholic cocktail)----> for Ishani

Negroni (alcoholic cocktail)---> For Angre

"Okay guys be serious....she's seriously hurt... because she refused to see anyone and we don't even know she even came to the party or not...." Rhea said grabbing everyone's attention

"Yeah right! Mostly by this time she would have come here.....so why not spread out look for her in this party.....?"Siya Said

"Right! We should go!" Angad added

"But whenever she sees any one of us she just starts crying....I think we have hurt her ! With our behavior...so if Ranveer or Angad or I...found her... We must stand far and just call the girls to talk to her!!" Angre said determined

"Ok" Angad and Ranveer nodded silently and everyone spread out searching for her

30 Minutes Ago(Before kidnapping):
Vansh was standing there upset at the second bar at the heart of the party.....music banging louder...his handsome face is scrunched in irritation...as Riddhima refused to eat anything when they reached the resort....and closed the door on everyone's face.....she only allowed Mayank to be with her....and even he only drove her back to the Beach Resort..... remincsing all of this he was angry and upset....he was drinking Jameson

Taking one glass after another.... remincsing the morning incidents and Riddhima's behavior..he was Angry on Ranveer and Angad for shouting at Riddhima.....his eyes were almost red...his nerves popping....he looked absolutely ravishing in his beach shorts and showing of his toned chest and abs.....surely he had a drool worthy body....That's when.... someone back hugged him... caressing his chest.......he jerked that touch and turned back to see Arti standing there...biting and licking her lips... seductively..she...walked to him...and stood near and placed a hand on his chest and caressing it....

"Kya hua baby....? Kabhi yeh meraa touch tumhe relax karta thaa....aur aaj tum mere touch ko reject kar rahe ho!!" Arti said seductively tracing his jaw line

He just took hold of her hand and just threw it aside and then walked ahead in a random direction alcohol clouding his senses.....he reached behind the Dj....and almost collapsed when a hand slide around his torso....that person made him stand straight and it was arti....
"Arrghh!" He gritted his teeth and jerked off her hands and grabbed them in a painful hold...

"Kyu vansh...kyu mujhe apne aapse door kar rahe ho!!..mei maanti hoon...Akash k saath mene tumhe cheat kiyaa...but I- I was immature back then...I never understood that you only worked hard to reach this position...and Misunderstanding it to be neglect and Anger overpowered my senses...and that Akash took advantage of my immaturity! Baby please...I want you! And I know you want me too.....so please leave that slut-" he cut her off by pinning her to the near by wall..... i.e the backside of the Dj.....she winced getting hurt...

"Don't you dare Arti!! Don't you compare yourself to Riddhima....she's An angel..and you!! You keep whoring around.... don't you think...I don't know anything about you intentions..... you're still that cheap materialistic and gold digger that cheated on me...so shut your mouth and stay away!!" Vansh Said menacingly

She didn't flinch...and "no baby.... you're Misunderstanding me...I want you baby....come back to me...I love you!!! So so much!! The Angel you are talking about is a bitch in disguise!! Leave her before it's too late !!"

"Love!? And you!! Haha nice joke-" vansh started but she just him off
"I'll show you how much I love you!!" And just kissed him on the lips!!

Vansh was shocked...but soon jerked her off..and backed up....while she hit her head on the wall due to the push...and winced.....but looking to the otherside....she saw Riddhima running away....and she smirked
"Damage Done!" She said to herself and walked off

While vansh stood there shocked and completely confused... looking at Arti's retreating figure
