Recap: Vikram and Sana weekend time at beach house

********************

Vikram's unwavering love and gentle care gradually helped Sana break free from her insecurities. Though the shadows of her past still lingered faintly, she had begun to feel lighter—happier. Vikram, despite being burdened by office pressure and the relentless hunt for the person who aided Sam, always made time for Sana and their daughter Sara. He made it a rule—whatever storm raged in his mind, it would never touch the peace of his home. For his angels, he was all smiles.

With Sara becoming more active, their private moments were rare. But stolen kisses, long night talks, and quiet touches wrapped their lives in a soft, magical glow.

Meanwhile, Pugazh and Rakshat were assisting Vikram in finding the mastermind behind Sam, but so far, there were no leads—not even from Sam or Priyanka.

Vikram, increasingly frustrated, decided to visit the prison. Accompanied by Pugazh and Rakshat, he sat in the cold confession room, waiting.

Sam was escorted in, smirking slightly as he saw them.

"Why are you men here?" Sam asked, voice laced with sarcasm.

"We're here to gift you something," Vikram replied, calm yet firm.

"Wow, a gift? Fine, go ahead."

Vikram leaned forward. "Who is the person who helped you with everything?"

Sam shrugged. "I won't reveal anything."

"I'll give you one chance. Tell me who it is."

"No."

Vikram turned to Rakshat and gave him a silent signal.

Rakshat stepped forward. "Do you want to watch a live video?"

Sam frowned. "What video?"

Rakshat played a clip. It showed Priyanka tied up, panic in her eyes, as another female prisoner held a knife close to her neck.

Vikram's voice was low, threatening. "Just one call... and your so-called bitch wife loses her life. I won't even flinch about breaking the law for my Sana."

"You won't do that..." Sam hissed.

Vikram's eyes darkened. "How do I look to you? Do I seem like I'm kidding? For my Sana, I would go to any extent. And she," he pointed to the screen, "is nothing but dirt I'd wipe off without a second thought. Pugazh, call her."

Pugazh called the woman holding the knife.

"Give us a short play," he instructed.

"Seri sir," came the response. The woman made a small cut on Priyanka's neck and a deeper one on her arm. Priyanka whimpered, her mouth gagged with cloth.

"Leave her!" Sam screamed. "I'll kill you guys! Leave her!"

"You'll kill us?" Vikram laughed coldly. "Funny. Now, if you don't tell me who helped you, be ready to lose her. You've got ten seconds."

Pugazh began counting down. "Ten... nine... eight..."

At two, Sam broke.

"Fine! I'll tell you... just leave her!"

"First, talk," Vikram snapped.

"I don't know who he is. I've never met him. Even Priyanka hasn't."

Vikram slapped him hard across the face.

"Believe me!" Sam cried. "Nothing matters to me more than Priyanka."

"You don't know him, but you worked for him?" Pugazh asked.
