Pragya entered one of the unused rooms of Mehra Mansion where a dark figure was waiting for her.

"Why did you summon me here?" Pragya asked.

Alia turned around, her face glistening with malicious intents.

"I don't like speaking in a round about way, so let's get to the point directly." she began. "Leave from here if you want the well being of your daughters."

"Why will I leave my own house due to your empty warnings? I will stay here with my family." Pragya replied.

"Be ready to loose your kids then." Alia threatened and Pragya's eyes widened. "Stop acting like you don't know me. Who do you think is behind sending one of your daughters to hospital and the other one to jail? If you don't leave, I'll frame Rhea in cases that will lead her to a lifetime imprisonment or death sentence and it's a child's play for me to permanently remove Prachi from the face of this earth with that Shahana too."

"You! You are behind all these!" Pragya exclaimed. "I have had enough of you. This time I'll ensure that it's an end to you and your evil deeds forever."

Alia laughed evilly. "How will you do it? Bhai believe me as usual and I'll be victorious again."

"I was a lover at that time, but this time it's a mother who will bring justice to her kids." Pragya challenged and walked away.

"The patient has gained consciousness. Any one of you may go and meet her." the doctor announced.

The three people currently present there looked at each other and conveyed a silent message among themselves. Ranbir got up and went to the ICU.

Prachi was lying on the bed. She tried to get up as soon as she saw him. Ranbir stopped her and sat beside her, holding her palm softly.

"Is it still paining anywhere?" Ranbir enquired with care.

Prachi smiled at his concern and shook her head in negative.

"Where are others?" she questioned feebly.

"Aryan and Shahana are waiting outside, Pragya aunty has gone to the temple and chief had some important work." he answered.

"Where is Rhea?" Prachi wondered if Rhea had cared for her even a bit.

"You shouldn't talk too much. The doctor has advised you to take rest. If you keep asking questions, he will drive me out of here." Ranbir changed the topic as he didn't want to stress Prachi by revealing the deeds of her devil sister.

Prachi shut her mouth immediately as she didn't want Ranbir to go from there.

They sat there together for a long time, him assuring her that she will be discharged soon and they would go on another date and her giggling softly at his antics. Even the doctor didn't have the heart to remind Ranbir that the visiting time was over.

-----

Shahana hid behind car when she saw Pragya coming out of the police station. She waited in her hiding spot till Pragya left.

Aryan had sent her to bring the essential things for Prachi from their home. As she was bringing those, she had heard Pragya instructing the driver to take her to the police station. Curious, Shahana had taken a taxi and followed her.

She's was just in time to hear her maasi promising Rhea to get her a bail and prove her innocence. It was indeed a shock for her. However could Pragya support the one who tried to kill Prachi? Angry, she marched into the police station when Pragya was gone answer demanded to have a talk with Rhea.

"Wow! You have manipulated maasi so well, but I won't let your plans succeed. You will serve you're punishment for trying to harm Prachi." she gritted her teeth.

"Please listen to me. This time I'm not at fault." Rhea pleaded.

"Your tricks won't work on me. I am not an emotional fool."

"I swear by my dad." Rhea said.

Shahana stopped. She knew that inspite of everything, Rhea loved her dad very much and wouldn't give a false swear on him.

"What do you have to say for yourself." she decided to give her a chance.

Rhea narrated everything from the beginning to her realization and how Alia had betrayed her.

"I still can't believe bhooji did this to me. I had loved her more than anyone else my entire life." Rhea repented.

"I will help you to unfold the truth but I if you are found guilty in the process, you must bear the punishment." Shahana warned before helping her.

"You need not to worry about that." Rhea assured.
