Fear over the Q word

Kritika pulled Prithvi to an empty table as she couldn't find her family, "Mumma aur baki sab Kaha hai?"

"It's okay Kriti, they are probably busy doing something, "Prithivi said and sat down. He looked around to find Abir hugging Preeta as she glared at him. He cleared his throat, "You didn't tell me Preeta Ji was married."

"Oh, actually na Prithvi Ji," Kritika said with a sad look, "When I got to know about it, the situation was very volatile. You know how Karan Bhai is..."

"Hmm," Prithvi nodded, "by the way this farmhouse is beautiful and extremely large. Maybe we will have our wedding here, what say?"

'Wah, Luthras have a property that I don't know about, I must make my detective recheck everything,' Prithvi seriously considered.

Kritika laughed, " Then we will have to ask Preeta for her permission." Seeing Prithvi frown, Kritika elaborated, " This is Preeta's house."

"What?" Prithvi asked in shock.

"Yes," Kritika affirmed, " She isn't just a doctor now, I searched her on the internet. She is a rising businesswoman with a chain of hospitals."

"Really... That's great, she deserves all that," Prithvi said but the gears in his head were working. "But..."

Ring Ring

"Umm Prithvi Ji Bhabhi ka phone hai, I will come in a while," Kritika said and left. Prithvi nodded, as soon as she left he searched for Preeta on the internet.

A rising businesswoman in the UK, with several business awards achieved in just four years.

Preeta Raishinghania is said to have a net worth of 5 Billion USD.

Her husband is awarded the most successful businessman of the year.

Abir Raishinghania has a net worth of 60 Billion USD.

'Preeta Ji has become very rich and her husband is a billionaire,' Prithvi thought to himself, 'I can't use my previous methods, because even if Preeta can't use her connections that kabab mein haddi would. I have to think of other ways...But Preeta Ji yeh kya, if you wanted to marry someone I was here. Your Prithvi Ji, but no worries, I will think of ways to make you mine.'

"Kiu Di!" Neel said with a pout, " Where are you?" He moved backwards and stepped on a stone just as he was about to fall someone caught him.

"Are you okay?" Karan asked him. Neel just looked at him blankly. 'Kuch toh bol,' Karan sain in his mind. "You didn't get hurt anywhere, right." Neel shook his head, Karan patted it and pulled some of the hair.

"OW!" Neel cried out in pain. "What are you doing! Badman!"

"No, no" Karan tried to calm him down. However, hearing the commotion Kiara came out of the bushes and hugged Neel. Seeing this chance, Karan turned around and placed the hair into a ziplock bag labelled kid.

"What happened Neel? Did you fall?" Kiara asked him as she patted his back.

"Di, this bad man pulled my hair," Neel cried. Kiara turned towards Karan and glared.

"MASI!" Kiara yelled, catching Abir and Preeta's attention.

They walked towards them, Preeta noticed Karan stood right next to the kids and her eyes turned murderous, "Kya Hua, Kiu?"

"Masi, this man pulled Neel's hair," Kiara said, causing them to glare at Karan. Preeta immediately bent down towards Neel and hugged him. She tried to calm him down by assuring him that she was here now.
