Nandhini was struggling in his grip she can't even breathe her face turned to red

Manik saw this and left kept her on ground

Manik how dare u he slapped her hard her lips started to bleed

Manik seem u have so much care for him

Nandhini I don't want them to be killed please atleast for the child

Pls maharaj she joined her hands and knelt down in his mercy

Manik who are you mentioning

Nandhini she looked confused may be she is the one took wrong that he wanted kill charu and her lover

She didn't want to disclose it who they are so she kept quiet but why is he angry on her she is confused and fear started to crept on its own to her heart she can never lie how will she pass this moment

She now know he will kill them for sure if he find out she will disclose it to him when he is in good mood

Manik patience reached to level he slapped her with full force her jaw was slightly miss placed

Manik u know I never encourage betrayal now you standing on my pride my trust reveal the truth

Why we're u with madhav and talking inappropriately

Who are you mentioning to save from me who are they

Nandhini gulped she can die but not be reason of some one death she did kept quiet

So they r more important for you than me right

Manik grabbed her hairs she yelped due to intense pain he pulled her towards him

I want you to speak damit speak why r u quiet I know how to make u speak

Your quietness has something to do with madhav right

He pulled her hair and dragged her guards were terrified with the scene they never saw Manik to be like this he never behaved like this that too for Nandhini they can't accept it they can't do anything

Nandhini helped them many times  she increased the salary of them she treats them like family they were happy that Manik gave the responsibility of palace workers to her

Manik took her with him both went to dadi room where dadi cabir chitra and madhav were there

He pushed Nandhini inside she fell with a thud all present in the room were shocked would be an understatement

Manik straightly went to madhav and pulled him and punched him with full force

Manik how dare you

Dadi came and lifted Nandhini she noticed her bruised cheek

Dadi what's happening here Manik why are u behaving like this

Manik I also want to know what happening here these two can only enlighten to us

What's going on between you two I want to know it now

Nandhini was crying continuously cabir all were confused what it happening here

Manik was punching madhav but he is remaining silent from what he heard from Manik he must have misunderstood to protect his love he remained quiet

Cabir Manik leave him he only came yesterday how come u think there was something between them leave them

Manik even I want to believe this but their silent making me crazy I want to hear it from them

Cabir went to Nandhini

Cabir pls say something he was never like this to you

Nandhini didn't speak

Manik  guards come in move them go jail tomorrow morning this two will be executed

Chitra maharaj please give them time they wouldn't dare to do anything against you may be you were wrong pls take back your order

Manik glared her she stepped back

Guards took them to jail Manik were so restless and angry

He went to hi room started drinking cabir too enquired all the guards did they find anything abnormal he found the incident so suspicious because Nandhini can't be like this she didn't spoke one word may be someone is plotting

He went to Manik room he saw him fully drunk he poured a jug of water on him

Cabir get up you stupid tomorrow she will be dead do you not have any feelings

Manik what is she who is she why I must be worried she is nothing to me just another one

Cabir really then why were to drowning urself in these alcohol and see ur face u were crying

Manik because it's burning you know how it feels here he pointed his heart

I saw them speaking they were talking about their love

I thought I must have misunderstood but no she didn't utter a word she took everything by as it is like she is the culprit

Manik I want to speak with her he stumbled and got up

Cabir come with me you will wait outside I will speak with her and know the truth don't enter ok

Here chitralekha was doing everything to protect her brother she send message of his execution and convinced ministers to talk about this to Manik in morning even she convinced dadi to speak with him

But they were scared to stand before him but said ok half heartly because they know he fears nothing

After the news spread to everyone in and outside the palace

Charulatha was devasted she can't help him she wanted to meet him

She sneaked and managed to reach the jail madhav was beaten his face was disfigured with Manik punches and tied to the sealing

Charu madhav she called he slowly opened his eyes

Madhav why r u here please leave if Manik find outs he will kill you

Charu what about you leave from here I will help you to escape go to your land

Madhav what about me I'm happy to give my life protect you I can't go from here Nandhini she was doing this much to protect our child I can't leave some innocent to bear the punishment of what did to bear alone

Charu if u were dead I will kill myself here I spoke with ur sister here she is chitra she called her
