Vikram held Manik's both shoulder.

Vikram:- Forget about marrying Veebha. Only Nandini will be this house's daughter in law. I don't know how will you do it. I want her to be your wife that's it. Then I will show Murty whom he mess with.

Vikram had a smirked on his face. Manik just forgot to talk.

Manik:- Are you serious Dad?

Vikram left him.

Vikram:- Of course my son. Tomorrow we are going to Murty's house with your alliance.

Nyonika also couldn't believe her ears.

Nyonika:- I must be dreaming now.

Vikram:- No dear you are not. If Murty's daughter become my son's wife. Murty will be always afraid of me and most important my son loves his daughter. I should see my son's happiness first.

Manik's happiness had no bound. He hugged Vikram.

Manik:- Thank you so much dad.

Vikram smiled and hugged him back. Nyonika almost had tears in her eyes. Vikram was not just a father of Manik. He was best friend of his son. He never went against his will. He gave him everything he want. But after Manik and Nandini's relationship came out they didn't mingle like before. But seems like everything fall into their own place. They broke the hugged.

Vikram:- Tomorrow is a big day. Go fresh up and have some sleep.

Manik nodded his head and left for his room. Vikram wiped his corner of eyes.

Nyonika:- I saw that.

Vikram chucked. He side hugged her.

Vikram:- Feeling like I got my cheerful Manik back.

Nyonika:- You are going to Murty mansion with alliance tomorrow. Then what about Mr Anand? Veebha?

Seems like Vikram got his sense now.

Vikram:- I totally forget about them.

Nyonika rolled her eyes.

Nyonika:- Just like I thought.

Vikram:- Don't worry I will talk to Mr Anand. It's not like Veebha and Manik got married. They didn't even get engaged with each other. I will make everything alright. You don't have to worry much.

Nyonika:- OK..

They also went to their room. Next day at morning in Murty's house everyone having breakfast.

Yeash:- Nandini don't go alone in hospital. Arya will drop you.

Nandini:- But dad I can go of my own.

Arya:- Yeah you can go but what if again some emergency come and you forget to inform us.

Nandini was feeling irritated.

Nandini:- I am always not careless. It only happens one in a lifetime.

Abhi:- Dad is right Nandini. We can't take risk.

Nandini:- Fine.

Nandini got up from her sit.

Nandini:- I am done. If you want me to come with you then. Make it first.

Nandini started walking towards the exit. Arya took a bread and run after her. But he collided with Nandini's back. Arya looked at the door and saw Samrat was there with his parents.

Arya:- Samrat you are here? Early morning?

Samrat came inside with his parents. Yeash, Vandita and Abhi came towards them.

Yeash:- Aman what a pleasant surprise!

They both shake hand with each other.

Aman:- We heard about Nandini so thought to cheak on her.

Yeash:- That's great. Come have breakfast.

Aman:- No no we had it already.

Yeash:- Then Come have a sit.

All sat down in leaving room. As Nandini's in laws were there so Nandini couldn't leave now. Nandini was also with them. Aman looked at Nandini.

Aman:- Nandini how are you? And where were you?

Nandini about to say but Mrs Rajput spoke between.

Mili:- Where you with your lover?

Nandini was shocked so does Murty's.

Mili:- I heard it from Samrat you have a lover. Was you with him?

Nandini didn't know what to say. She looked down. Yeash didn't know how to react.

Aman:- Mili what are you saying?

Mili:- Aman you keep quiet. Listen Mr Murty I don't know why your daughter still with her lover. We have a reputation in this society. So pleased hold your daughter horses. Otherwise not only she will destroy your name but also our name.

Vandita was hell angry. She was feelings like slapping that woman and show her place same with Arya. Abhi was holding Arya's hand to stop him. They couldn't say anything because they were Nandini's soon to be in laws.

Samrat:- Mom let it be I don't have any problem with her having lover. After marriage everything will be end anyway.

Mili:- Of course it had to be. Otherwise I will make her.

Looking like Mrs Rajput have so much hate towards Nandini. Nandini had tears in her eyes. Yeash's eyes were spitting fire. He was about to answer. But Suddenly some people entered inside the mansion and they had some gifts on their hand. Murty's were confused. Yeash got up from his place.

Yeash:- What's going on in here?

Voice:- Let me explain it.

Yeash looked at the door and saw Malhotra's were there. Vikram entered inside with Manik and Niyonika behind him. Yeash was already angry seeing Malhotra's there his anger have no bound. All got up from their sit.

Yeash:- Malhotra!!

Vikram smirked.

Vikram:- Good morning to you too Murty.

Vikram looked at others and saw Rajput's were also there.

Vikram:- Ohh looks like everyone is here. So we won't have any problem.

Yeash:- Why are you here?

Vikram:- Will say there is no hurry.

Vikram went and sat on a single sit couch.

Vikram:- Why are you all standing sit down. It's your house only.

Nyonika and Manik about to sit. But Nyonika's eyes fall on Nandini who had tears in her eyes. Nyonika came to Nandini.

Nyonika:- Nandini what happened why you have tears in your eyes? Who made you cry?

Listening this Manik also by her side.

Manik:- Who made you cry? Tell me the name.

Manik was angry. Seeing someone by her side more tears fall from Nandini's eyes.

Nandini:- Manik!

Manik cupped her face.

Manik:- Yes love what happened share with me?

Nandini hugged him and started crying. Nyonika was caring her hair. Mili eyes filled with more hate.

Mili:- Only this thing left to see. Mr Murty you didn't teach your daughter how to behave in front of others. Characterless girl.

Manik(shout) :- Shut up.

Manik's voice was so loud that everyone jumped on their place.

Vikram(murmured) :- That's my boy.

Manik:- You! (pointed his finger) Who the hell are you questing about my Nandini's character?

Mrs Rajput was too scared to say.

Samrat:- Manik you can't talk to my mother like that.

Manik:- Then tell your mother keep her voice shut. She can't talk to Nandini like that.

Mili:- A characterless girl should be called characterless. Infront of everyone she is hugging some other guy. Her marriage is fixed but she don't have any shame.

Nandini held Manik more tightly. Manik was going crazy in anger.

Arya:- We are quite doesn't mean you will say whatever you want.

Abhi:- We respect you don't cross your limit.

Manik:- There is nothing worng to hug the person you love and so what her marriage is fixed. She loves me. I think you forgot your own son did. How many girlfriends he have. How many girls he made pregnant.

Samrat:- Manik!

Manik:- Don't make me open my mouth Samrat. I know something which you don't want others to listen.

Nyonika:- You shameless woman don't make me open my mouth.

Vandita also came forward.

Vandita:- If you don't talk about Character that will be good for you.

Mili:- Mr. Murty what kind of behaviour is this.

Yeash:- Get out!

Mili:- What?

Yeash was shaking in anger.

Yeash:- I said get out. I don't want my daughter marry in your house.

Samrat:- Uncle this is a misunderstanding. These Malhotra's are providing you. It must be their plan.

Yeash:- Abhi call the security and throw them out. This marriage is cancelled.

Abhi nodded his head. Mr. Rajput moved from his place and came in front of Yeash. He joined his hand.

Aman:- I am really sorry Yeash. (to his family) Come let's leave.

Aman dragged his family with him. Manik looked at Nandini and wiped her tears.

Manik:- Everything is good now.

Yeash came towards Nandini. Nandini let go Manik. Yeash kept his hand on her head.

Yeash:- I am sorry my child. I was blind I couldn't saw that you will not be happy in that house. I am sorry.

Yeash hugged Nandini. Nandini was crying.

Yeash:- I am sorry my child because of me you have to heard so much.

Nandini broke the hug.

Nandini:- Thank you Dad for taking my side.

Yeash kissed her forehead. Everyone was smiling looking at father and daughter.

Vikram:- Finally peach. Everyone sit down please.

Everyone sat down on their place. Nandini sat with her father. Manik and Nyonika sat down.

Yeash:- Why are you here?

Vikram:- Good question! I came with alliance of my son with your daughter.

Yeash raised his eyebrows.

Yeash:- Why should I accept it?

Manik:- One minute I have something to convence you. It might help you.

Manik took out a file and handed over it to Yeash. He took it and read the papers careful.

Manik:- I got Mr. Shah project. Now you need to fulfil your promise father in law.

Nandini's eyes was wide open. Others were confused. Yeash after reading kept the file on table.

Yeash:- I accept your alliance. Let's our children get married.

Everyone was shocked. Specially Murty's.

Arya:- Dad how is this possible? How did you agree so easily?

Yeash:- Like 2 months ago Nandini took some promise from me.

Yeash looked at Nandini.

Yeash:- Mr. Shah's project is very important for us. She told me if Manik got the deal I have to accept their relationship. So here it is Manik won the project and Nandini. Now....

Yeash got up. He took Nandini's hand and came to Manik. Manik got up.

Yeash:- I have nothing to say. Just keep my daughter happy.

Manik had a bright smile on his face. Nandini had tears of happiness. Finally the day is here which she dreamed of.

Manik:- I will.

Yeash came to Vikram. Vikram got up from his sit.

Yeash:- Let's forget this rivalry and star fresh.

Vikram smiled and hugged him.

Vikram:- Now we are big family.

Vandita:- I will bring some sweets.

Nyonika stopped her.

Nyonikq:- Not now. The celebration is still not done yet. Let's start the engagement first.

Vandita:- But we didn't make any preparation.

Yeash:- Yeah we have so much to do.

Vikram:- Don't worry. We made all the preparation. Just need to set up. Let's make small arrangement.

Nyonika:- Yes. Manik!

Manik came to her.

Nyonika:- Manik bring all those thing we brought.

Manik nodded his head about to go but Vandita stopped him.

Vandita:- He is the groom don't make him work. Let him rest and others do the work. Come here.

Vandita took him to Nandini and made him sat beside her.

Vandita:- You both sit down. Let others arrange everything.

Arya:- Yeah we are here to do all those. I am sorry Manik for my behaviour.

Manik smiled and hugged him. Arya also hugged him back. Abhi came there.

Abhi:- At last you made your place in this house. Welcome to family.

Manik:- Thank you.

Friends:- We are here.

Cabir, Navya, Mukti, Dhruv and Alia were also there. Everyone started the preparation. Manik and Nandini were talking to each other.

Nandini:- How did you manage all this? How did you got the project?

Manik:- Dad did everything. About project I told you project was pending because of my sudden police station visit. So at morning I went to Mr shah and clear everything. He told me he liked my project and want to give me the project. Then he handed over the official papers and then we came to your house.

Nandini:- What about Veebha?

Manik:- I don't know. Dad talked with her father. Everything is good now maybe.

Nandini looked around everyone was busy in preparation. Manik held her hand.

Nandini:- Am I dreaming Manik? Or this is actually happening?

Manik bendown and kissed her cheek. Nandini was shocked and looked at Manik. Manik rises his right eyebrow.

Manik:- What do you think?

Nandini's cheek became red.

Cabir:- Ohh lovey dovey couple let's start the ceremony.

Then with their family and close friends present they exchange their ring. Everyone was happy. Happiness was clearly visible in Manik and Nandini's eyes. Seeing their children happiness Yeash and Vikram's eyes because little wet. They understand now how their children were made for each other. Their happiness laid with each other. Yeash and Vikram hugged each other. So does Vandita and Nyonika.
