Next morning.

At MM mansion.

Everyone come out for breakfast... Even karan , koel and faizuddin too come.

"Morning everyone," Karan wished them as everyone gathered in the MM mansion for breakfast. Karan, Koel, and Faizuddin were already up and appeared ready to leave.

"Morning Karan. Are you guys going somewhere?" Ram replied, seeing their preparedness.

"Arre, without having breakfast you guys can't go. It's not good. Have something then you all can go," Priya said kindly, emerging from the kitchen.

"Mrs. Malhotra, we already had some juice and fruits, so it's okay," Koel replied with a straight face, maintaining her professional distance.

"Arre, but..." Pragya started to insist, but a look from Ram stopped her from pressing the issue further.

"Mr. Mehra, you guys can... we need to check the..." Karan began, trying to speak in code due to the nearby servants, but he stopped when Koel signaled for him to check his phone.

"What??" he mouthed at her.Koel signaled again.

Karan pulled out his phone and read the message.

"Mr. Mehra and Mr. Malhotra, we will talk in the bureau," Karan announced, looking at the two men who were waiting for his instruction.

The trio walked out hurriedly without another word, only to bump into Ravi Dubey in the hallway.

"Hi man... Long time. How are you?" Ravi said, greeting Karan with a hug.

"Good," Karan replied after they broke the hug.

"And how are you, Koel, and what about you, Faizuddin?" Ravi asked, giving Koel a friendly side hug."I'm fine," Koel said, hugging him back.

"Ravi, we will talk later. Actually, we are in a hurry," Karan said, checking his watch impatiently.

"No problem. Bye... take care, see you soon," Ravi replied, understanding their urgency.

"You too," Koel said, turning back and winking at him before she left.

"Damn, lady, that wink was something. But mind me if you do this in front of my lady, she will kill you. My wife is so possessive for me," Ravi yelled from behind, then murmured to himself, "Damn... She is still crazy sometimes."

Ravi shook his head and turned toward the Malhotra and Mehra families, only to see them staring at him in shock. Ravi muttered a curse under his breath, put on a straight face, and walked toward them.

"Good morning, everyone," Ravi wished them after clearing his throat.

"Good morning, Mr. Dubey. You here this early morning?" Ram replied in a formal tone.
