Third Person's POV

Anjali hung up the call with Dhruv and threw the phone to the wall, breaking it into pieces.

Her face contorted in anger and stormy rage started rising within her when she recalled what he had said to her.

Unable to control herself, she took a showpiece from the table and threw it to the floor, breaking the object.

With the anger coursing through her veins, threatening to consume her, she felt like breaking everything within her reach.

She took a vase from the table this time and was about to throw it when Ridvansh stopped her, holding her wrist.

"What are you doing? Have you gone mad?"

"Yes, I have gone mad, Ridvansh. I really have gone mad."

Concerned seeing her condition, he took the vase off her hand and kept it back on the table.

He then walked her to the couch and made her sit there.

"Take deep breaths, baby. Please calm yourself." He kept rubbing her back as she took deep breaths.

After a while, when she calmed down, Ridvansh kneeled in front of her and held her hands. "Now, tell me. What happened that you became so out of control in your anger?"

"It was Dhruv who called me, Ridvansh. He told me to reach Rathore Mansion soon because he is bringing Sikha back there."

"What? How can that happen? Hadn't you convinced Dhruv to keep her alone in that house and keep torturing her to break her? Then, why did he change his mind now?" Ridvansh was perplexed.

"Apparently, Sikha has agreed to give him a second chance," she replied to him, and he frowned upon hearing that.

"Even after Dhruv raped her and tortured her? How?" Ridvansh asked, fear making its way within him.

Their game would be over if Dhruv and Sikha united and if Dhruv started trusting Sikha over his sister because Sikha knew too much about them. Enough to send them to prison for life.

"It is all Vivansh's fault. I knew I should not have trusted that dumb head to execute our plan properly. I had instructed him to convince Sikha to run away with him so we could kill her later. But no, he executed our backup plan instead, making Dhruv believe that she had been planning to run with him," she said, standing from the couch and pacing back and forth, trying to calm her bubbling anger.

"You, too, had praised Vivansh for doing that. And don't you dare call him a dumb head. He is my brother." Ridvansh also stood up from the floor and walked near her.

"I don't care if he is your brother or whatever. I cannot keep any loose ends, Ridvansh. We need to remove Vivansh and Sabita before they expose us.

"I can't help but smell something fishy here. Why hasn't Sikha said anything about me to Dhruv? Why did she suddenly decide to give Dhruv a second chance? And why is she returning to Rathore mansion when she has gotten nothing but humiliation and disrespect from that place?

"I can feel she is planning something, Ridvansh. That is why we need to be extra careful from now. I guess it is time to make Vivansh and Sabita our numbers 31 and 32," she finished, and Ridvansh was shocked, hearing her.

"What the hell? You want to kill my brother? How can you even insinuate something like that?" Ridvansh fumed.

"I already said I don't care if he is your brother. You know me, Ridvansh. I am too selfish. When it comes to choosing between me and everyone else, I will always choose myself." She folded her hands over her chest, looking at Ridvansh in a way as if daring him to go against her.
