After 18 long years Parvati has met Suyash, in her college which she runs as trustee. After the meeting she cannot stop thinking about him. She is in her room, in the Janki mansion, lost in thoughts.

Yeh aadmi aaj bhi uss aurat ke saath rehraha hai.

She snaps out of her thoughts by Narayani's voice.

"Kya hua Janki kis khayalo mein khoyi hui ho koi baat hai?" Narayani asks, entering the room, and sits beside Parvati on the edge of the bed.

"Haan maa, aaj main Mr.Mehra se mili..."

Narayani interrupts her, "wahi Mr.Mehra jo tumse..."

Parvati is annoyed. "Maa woh sirf mujhe paana chahta tha aur woh aaj bhi meri dushman Rajeshwari ke saath hai agar maa woh aadmi itna saccha hota toh meri madad karta, usne madad nahi ki, bas pyaar ke daway karta tha."

Narayani listens calmly, feeling sad about Parvati's misunderstanding regarding Suyash.

Parvati continues, "maana maine galti ki uske baat par bharosa na karke ki woh khooni nahi hai, baad mein mujhe sacch pata chala woh bekasoor hai lekin woh bhi jaanta tha main bhi bekasoor hoon phir bhi meri madad nahi ki, kyu maa? Aur aaj itne saalo baad usay dekha."

Her anger resurfaces, recollecting about Suyash.

Narayani heaves a sigh and puts on a smile on her lips. "Abhi tumhare do dushman Rajeshwari aur Trishna undono se pehle badla lena hai baad mein Suyash Mehra ko dekhenge, chalo ab so jao."

Parvati smiles as Narayani runs her hand over her cheek affectionately. "Haan maa, good night. Aap bhi araam kijiye."

Next day in office, Parvati is still thinking about Suyash. "Yeh aadmi meri zindagi mein wapas kyun aya hai aur itne saalo tak yeh aur Rajeshwari..." She is disgusted, she closes her eyes and leans on her chair. Suddenly her eyes flutter open when she gets an idea. She makes a phone call to someone and says, "abhi mere office aao."

Later on, a person is standing in front of Parvati. Parvati throws bundles of money and Suyash's photo on her table. "Yeh lo paise, mujhe iss aadmi ke baare mein sab khabar chahiye kahan, kisse, kaise, kyun sab kuch."

"Yes ma'am, theen din mein sab kuch mil jayega," man replies.

Parvati smiles.

In the evening Parvati goes to Rajeshwari's party and she bumps into Suyash. ParYash converse, one conversation leads to another, and Suyash says, "Parvati ji iss duniya mein nahi hai lekin unn jaisa koi nahi hai."

"Mr.Mehra, uss so called Parvati ke liye aap ke dil mein soft corner hai shayad huh?" Parvati asks, with a tone of sarcasm.

A soft smile appears on his lips, does she still need proof of that? Anyway he walks away after saying, "enjoy the party, Ms.Janki."

Baar baar Parvati ke baare...Parvati thinks, glaring at Suyash while he is busy talking to some guests, yeh aadmi kya hai samajh mein nahi aa raha hai? Mera shak sahi hai yeh mujhe Parvati sabit karke Rajeshwari aur Trishna ko bata dega.

Three days later Suyash comes to Janki mansion to buy Agarwal house because Parvati wants to turn it into a casino.

"Mr.Mehra, aap ko kyun woh ghar chahiye kya hai usme? Aur na aap ka koi rishta hai uss ghar se..." Parvati says, maintaining her attitude.

"It's personal, uss ghar mein buzurgh hai woh kahan jayenge?" Suyash says.

"Vrudhashram!" Parvati says with a sarcastic smile.

Suyash fakes anger and leaves from there. He knows she won't do anything to that house and he won't let anything happen to that house either as it's very special to her.
