''Do you tell me that mom doesn't believe you? That too over that girl.''Kiara questions looking at Prachi.

''You need to understand kia di. This is a sensitive matter. Mom is a very strong lady but Rhea is her own child. Even I don't have solid proofs to show mom.''Prachi defends Pragya.

''Solid proofs! When do we need solid proofs to trust you.''Kiara asks.

''Di! It's not like that. I have spoken to mom about Rhea. Mom thinks that because of our constant differences I am believing Rhea is at fault. Once she understands that Rhea isn't worth wasting our time then mom might agree  to leave Delhi.'' Prachi tells.

''Okay fine. But whatever Rhea and that Alia did with you is not fine. They should surely be punished for it.''Kiara says with rage. Prachi looks worried seeing Kiara's hatred towards Rhea.

''Didi, I know your angry at Rgea for framing Prachi in Neckless theft and faking her fall from the hill. But do you seriously think she would have tried killing Prachi?'' Shahana asks knowing very well that Kiara knows more than them.

''Actually Di, when there was a complaint filed against Rhea for attempting to murder me. I didn't believe it and when she humiliated Mom on diwali night I got really angry and told that I suspect Rhea's allegations might be true but then I thought how stupid of me to think something very stupid. Rhea is self centered and arrogant but I don't think she would stoop so low.''Prachi voices put her concerns.

Kiara chuckles in response. ''You think she's childish ah? Even I would have thought the same if I were in your place but no your wrong. I hired private investigators to investigate about her. She has done many scandals against. She was responsible for the drug scandal and she was the one who hired the truck driver to kill you. Apart from that she only brought that guy Rohit Gill AKA Sanju in your life back again.''Kiara says shocking Prachi and Shahana.

''What the fuck!? Rhea joined hands with that Sanju. Was she the one who helped in maligning Prachi's Character. I have not seen such a cheap bitch in my entire life.''Shahana says anger evident in her voice. Prachi had a small soft corner left for Rhea but after hearing about her entire deeds Prachi is ashamed to call her as her sister.

''What about Maya?''Shahana asks already guessing that Rhea is involved in that also.

''Yeah, even Maya was hired by Rhea. But I thought it might not bother you as the case was against a boy named Ranbir Kohli.''Kiara says rolling her eyes.

''Woh, Ranbir is our friend and also Rhea accused me of bringing her into his life and turned his family against me.''Prachi says disgusted by Rhea.

''You guys need to tell me each and every detail. Because I can't find everything using an investigator. What happened inside four walls need to be conveyed by you.''Kiara says looking at her sister.

Prachi and Shahana narrate the whole incident to Kiara. Kiara was furious at the end. ''You love that boy?''Kiara asks Prachi.

There is no secret between sisters. So,Prachi told about Ranbir too. ''But be careful. He is a lot like that spineless man. I don't want you getting hurt.''Kiara says with a smile. Prachi nods. The trio chat for a long time catching up. When it gets late at night Kiara offers to drop them.

At MK Mansion,
