Episode # 44:- (Never mess with them)

"I made you strong enough, Swara," Sanskar murmured inaudibly. But it was as if Swara heard him, because, in the next moment, she composed herself, took a deep breath, and opened her eyes. With her head held high and confidence shining in her eyes and voice, she said,

"I'm Swara Sanskar Maheshwari, wife of Sanskar Maheshwari, younger sister of Karan Gadodia and Rithvik Shergil, who is the trustee of this university, and also the daughter of I.G. of police, Shekhar Gadodia," Swara stated in a dead-serious tone, looking straight into their eyes.

Gasps filled the air as the crowd reacted to her words. The girls who had been accusing her with such confidence moments before now turned pale with shock.

"Never judge a person or accuse them if you don't know anything about their background," Sanskar said, stepping forward to stand beside Swara.

"Because there's a possibility that person is capable of eliminating your existence from this world," Karan added, coming forward to stand beside Swara on her other side.

Swara held onto her husband's and brother's hands for support, feeling her energy drain after hearing their voices. Sanskar and Karan gripped her hands tightly, sensing her hands had gone cold as ice.

"And never try to place allegations on those who are pure and innocent. If you do, be ready to be cursed for hurting an innocent soul," RV said in a dead-serious tone as he joined them, his meeting had gone long, delaying his arrival at the university.

The trio turned their heads and found RV standing there, his face etched with pure rage. Sanskar and Karan exchanged a worried look, while Swara, letting go of their hands, ran towards RV and hid in his embrace.

RV patted her back, easily feeling her shivers. "I'm proud of you," RV said as he broke the hug, gently caressing her head before turning toward the girls.

Karan stepped closer to Swara, wrapping her in a side embrace. Meanwhile, RV, trembling with anger, walked up to the girls, but Sanskar placed a steadying hand on his shoulder, calming him down. RV took a deep breath and called out to the principal, who had been watching from a little distance.

"I want their names and details now," RV shouted in anger, and within ten minutes, their details were in his hands. All the while, the girls stood there, shivering in fear as they awaited their fate.

RV opened the file, and Sanskar also glanced at the names and their fathers' names. A smirk appeared on his lips, as he recognized that two out of the four girls' fathers worked with Maheshwari Companies.

"I told you, never judge a person without knowing their background, because now your fathers will pay for your deeds. What a child does outside reflects the upbringing of their parents," Sanskar said calmly, though his voice held a trace of barely contained rage.

"You're right, sir. These four are some of the most arrogant, ill-mannered, and rude girls in this university. Even their parents are the same way," a few students commented, relieved to finally express their grievances.

"They always insult students, especially those from middle-class families or on scholarships."

"Why didn't you tell me this before?" RV asked the principal in a stern voice, making him lower his head in shame.

"Sir, our principal is the uncle of one of these girls. He's her father's brother, which is why he's ignored our complaints," another student said, as it was the first time they'd had the chance to speak openly with the university's trustee.

Sanskar and Karan exchanged a look of horror and immediately turned their gaze to RV, whose eyes had turned red with anger.

"If anything had happened to my sister today because of your favoritism towards these four, believe me, you'd be lying somewhere, praying for death," RV said in a dangerously low tone to the principal, who shivered in fear.

"Since they didn't physically harm my sister, I'll spare their lives. But they will pay for trying to damage her self-respect," RV said, looking toward the girls, who were now sobbing in fear.

"Your fathers will receive a notice from our company within the hour," Sanskar said to two of the girls, watching as the color drained from their faces.

"Not just those two, Sanskar—all four of them. The other two have projects with Gadodia Company," RV added with a smirk, glancing at Karan, who nodded and called Shekhar. (Karan ran an engineering firm, but after Shekhar's arrival, he made his father the head, allowing him to make official decisions in his absence.)

"Besides this, all four of you are expelled from this university, and I'll ensure you're barred from admission anywhere, especially in India," RV declared, turning toward the principal.

"Sir, please, we're sorry! Don't do this; our fathers will kill us. Please, sir!" the girls pleaded in front of Sanskar, who, looking at RV, said,

"I can't do anything. You tried to harm his sister's self-respect; he would die before letting anyone hurt her."

"You made a mistake by messing with his sister and my wife. Now, bear the consequences," Sanskar added, his anger barely restrained, as he fought the urge to strike them.

He then approached Swara, who was leaning against Karan's chest, tears in her eyes. Sanskar gently wiped them away, shaking his head in reassurance.

Swara hugged him tightly, gathering her composure. Sanskar broke the hug and kissed her forehead, and the trio headed toward the parking area.

"Karan, you know we're so proud of you, but you just slapped those girls. If I were in your place, I would have made their lives hell," Karan said, gritting his teeth. Swara, wiping her tears, replied with a smirk,

"Who said, bhai, that I only left them with slaps?"

Sanskar and Karan gave her a confused look but soon understood her point, and they pulled her into a bear hug.

"That's our girl," they both said happily, and Swara's laughter echoed around them. RV, who was approaching, smiled brightly, feeling a weight lift from his shoulders seeing her safe and happy.

Suddenly, memories from past events flashed in his mind, causing a pang in his heart, but he quickly composed himself and plastered a smile on his face as he walked over.

"What are you guys up to?" RV asked. The trio broke their hug, turning toward him with smiles, but one look told Sanskar that RV was not fine.

Swara hopped into RV's arms, thanking him with a wide smile. RV chuckled at her antics and walked toward his car, Swara clinging to his arm and chattering away.

As for the principal, RV spoke with the other university board members, and they decided he would be terminated immediately for his unprofessional behavior.

Sanskar was about to step forward when Karan grabbed him by the collar from behind, pulling him back.

"Hey!" Sanskar exclaimed, stumbling before noticing Karan's serious expression. "What happened?" he asked.

"Rishi bro will find out about everything that happened today," Karan said. The confused look on Sanskar's face turned serious as he stared back in horror.

"What will we do now? This is something we can't hide from him by any means," Sanskar replied, watching RV and Swara's retreating figures with concern.

"What kind of gang leader are you? People fear you, and here you are, afraid of your elder brother," Karan teased, making a face. Sanskar smacked his head, saying,

"Big B is like a father figure to me, don't forget that. I think the time has come to bring their past in front of Swara because she's the only one who can calm them down." Karan nodded in agreement.

Both walked toward their cars and found Swara sitting on Sanskar's car bonnet, playing a game on her phone.

"Swara, where is RB?" Sanskar asked, looking around. Swara explained that RV had some work and left. After hearing this, Sanskar exchanged a look with Karan.

"What's going on? What are you both hiding?" Swara asked, noticing their worried expressions.

"Um, Swara, there's something we need to tell you," Sanskar said, glancing at Karan, who gestured for him to continue.

"What is it?" Swara asked, climbing down from the car bonnet.

"But first, you have to promise us that you'll be there to handle them because only you can calm them down," Sanskar said. Swara looked at him in confusion and replied,

"Who are you talking about? Whose names are you mentioning?"

"We're talking about Rishi bro and RV bro," Karan explained, clearing his throat. Swara frowned slightly and said,

"Will you please be clear? You're taking forever to explain."

Sanskar sighed and said, "What happened today has connections to something RV faced in his past."

Swara's eyes widened with shock. "What?" she shouted, before a thought struck her, and she asked,

"If this is about RV bhai's past, why did you bring up Rishi bhai? Did he face something similar?"

"Not just something similar, Birdie," Karan replied, glancing at Sanskar, "They both experienced the same thing. There's something we haven't told you until now."

"What haven't you told me?" Swara asked. Sanskar responded,

"Big B and RB are actually cousins; their mothers were real sisters."

"What the...!" Swara exclaimed, placing her hands on her cheeks, and staring at them in shock.

"Why didn't anyone tell me this before?" she asked. Sanskar explained,

"Like us, their past is painful. You already know we don't like to recall our past, but we opened up to each other when something triggered it. They, too, avoid bringing up those memories, but today's events will undoubtedly stir them deeply."

"Revealing their relationship to each other means digging up their past."

"Did they also lose their sister?" Swara asked quietly, her eyes filling with tears.

Karan shook his head. "Today, RV bro saw his sister's self-respect at stake. But years ago, he and Rishi bro watched their mothers face humiliation in front of society, despite being innocent."

"Today, you protected your self-respect. But years back, their mothers couldn't protect theirs. For years, they've carried the guilt of not being able to save them."

"How old were they?" Swara asked tearfully.

Sanskar told her, "Rishi was 17, and RV was only 14 at the time."

Swara put her hand over her mouth to stifle her sob, feeling their pain as if it were her own.

"I want to know everything about their past," Swara said, and Sanskar and Karan nodded.
