SOULMATES OF PARADOX : A PARADOXICAL LOVE STORY OF FATE, FORTUNE AND HEART (#3)

CHAPTER 10 WHO IS HE??

"Love need not speak volumes. It need not demand proof. It never has a happy ending - simply because it doesn't end as long as love is pure and true."

After they left, Niranjana frantically tried to call Rakshan, but his phone was busy. She tried calling everyone else, but their phones were either busy or switched off.

Mani noticed her distress and asked, "What happened, Niranjana?"

Niranjana replied, "No one is taking calls. I'm getting worried."

Mani suggested, "Then call the receptionist."

Niranjana nodded and quickly dialed the receptionist's number.

"Hello! Niranjana this side!" she said, trying to sound calm.

Rithika, the receptionist, replied, "Hello, Ma'am! How can I help you?"

Niranjana asked, "Can you forward this call to Ashwin?"

Rithika apologized, "Sorry, Ma'am! I can't."

Niranjana pressed for a reason, "Why? What's the reason?"

Rithika explained, "Ashwin sir already left from here after an important meeting with clients."

Niranjana's concern grew, "When he left? Did he leave alone?"

Rithika replied, "A few minutes ago, Ma'am, with Rakshan sir and the others."

Niranjana thanked her and ended the call.

Mani asked, "What happened?"

Niranjana shared, "They already left from there."

Mani's eyes widened, "They left?"

Devi chimed in, "They should reach by now... where are they?"

Shreya :, "What we thought about Anna... he's totally opposite of that."

Devi ma's face was etched with worry as she turned to the group. "We need to act fast. We can't let them force Sivaangi into a marriage she doesn't want."

Everyone nodded in agreement.

Devi: "I'll talk to Ashwin. He needs to know what's happening."

Mani suggested, "We should go to the police.."

Niranjana hesitated. "But will they believe us? Krishna is a powerful man."

Shreya's voice was firm. "We have to try. We can't just sit back and do nothing."

As they discussed their next move, Sivaangi's teddy bear lay forgotten on the floor, a poignant reminder of the innocence and childhood that was being torn away from her..

Meanwhile, in the car, Sivaangi's tears fell silently as she realized the gravity of her situation. She was trapped, with no clear escape from the forces that sought to control her life.

Adi's voice was cold and detached. "You'll do as you're told, Sivaangi. You'll marry me, and you'll be grateful for it."

Sivaangi's heart sank, but she refused to give up hope. She knew that her friends and family would do everything in their power to save her. She just had to hold on to that thought until help arrived.

Sivaangi's eyes welled up with tears as she whispered, "Ashwineyy... I want Ashwineyy..."

Adi's expression turned cold. "You'll forget about Ashwin. He's not good for you."

Sivaangi's voice trembled. "No... I want Ashwineyy... He takes care of me... He makes me feel safe..."

Krishna sneered. "You're a child, Sivaangi. You don't know what's good for you. We'll decide what's best for you."
