"This dagger belong to you Aadhya! You can't give it away to me just like. It was passed onto you because of your capabilities to be a Queen. You can't give it to a worthless being like me. Just go away from me. I don't want to end up doing something in anger that I'll regret for the rest of my life. Go away before I do something that'll hurt both of us" Abhyaansh pulled her hand and handed back the dagger to her firmly.

 His tight grip on her hand was enough to show that he was controlling his anger, avoiding to lash out anyone. He was to walk away but she stopped him by holding his wrist, making him look into her eyes.

"Please calm down Ansh, please. And who the hell said you are worthless? You are The King Ansh, The CEO of A.S Empire, The Genius Abhyansh Sooryavanshi, I am so proud of you-" She knew who he was and she respected his journey. 

She was the proudest person standing in the crowd who watched him. She knew how he struggled to create the empire he rules today. He made his own identity despite having a silver spoon ready on his plate. He strived, struggled, survived all of it to be the man he was. The best part she loved about him was that he never showed his tension or frustration on his face, he always had a smile on his face. 

"You think I didn't know why you were trying to challenge me Aaradhya? I always knew more than you think! Alas, sad part... you never understood me" She tried arguing with him but he didn't give her a chance to speak.

"You think I wouldn't have made this empire without you, I would have made it with or without your criticism. All I wanted was that when I felt down, tired and defeated, I wanted this fucking family's support. But guess what... they were busy in seeing me as a failure, a shame to their clan. I might keep the men aside but what about the ladies? They were worst. They were quite indulged in getting taunted by the men. Bhai sa... can't blame him much because he has his own family mess to deal with. But you... Today you are standing without having any pain because no matter how much you criticized me, you were there with me working alongside me through the long painful nights. And I really am grateful to you for it but that still doesn't change the fact that you hate me" Aaradhya took a step back at the burst of emotions.
