In the Sharma Mansion.

Everyone was in a festive mood.

Because today, the daughter of the head of the Sharma family, Isha Sharma, was finally getting married to her beloved fiance, Deepak Verma.

The reflection in the mirror showed her finely carved features. She was like a masterpiece drawn by God on a canvas.

She was wearing a strapless wedding dress that enhanced her collarbones and made them more eye-catching.

The carefully tailored wedding dress hugged her slender figure tightly. And its beautiful, full-length ruffles made the eighteen-year-old Isha Sharma look more feminine.

In S Country, the legal age to get married was eighteen. So after her eighteenth birthday, Isha Sharma decided to marry Deepak, the man she had loved for several years.

Although she had drunk a lot at her bridal shower last night, she still got up early to freshen up.

The day was breaking, and the sky was just turning bright outside as the sun was beginning to rise slowly from the east.

“Miss Isha, everything is ready now. It’s still early. Why don’t you rest for a while? We will come back for your makeup in two hours,” suggested the staff who was helping her dress up with a smile.

“Okay.” Isha Sharma looked at the dark circles under her eyes in the mirror and nodded.

She still felt a little groggy because she drank too much last night. So she picked up the glass on the table and drank two mouthfuls of water.

When the staff left, a maid came in with a pot of soup and put it in front of Isha.

Isha filled a small bowl with the soup, and gulped down two mouthfuls of it. Maybe because she drank too much wine last night, the tip of her tongue was bitter. The soup tasted a little strange to her.

After finishing the soup in the small bowl, she didn’t eat more. She just sat on the sofa and closed her eyes.

A few minutes later, the door of her room was gently pushed open, and someone came in quietly.

Isha didn’t fall asleep. She secretly half-opened her eyes and glanced around. She found out that the person who came in was Himanshi Sharma, her half-sister.

Isha’s stepmother was the one who had broken her parents’ marriage, so she despised her stepmother and Himanshi. She had never bothered to get along with them. So she wondered what Himanshi was doing in her room right now.

Himanshi took a quick glance at the empty bowl. Her mouth curved into a wicked smile as she lowered her head to look at Isha. “Isha, do you really think you can marry Deepak? I am the real daughter of the head of the Sharma family. You will never know what is in this bowl of soup. But I will make sure that you enjoy your wedding night in advance.”

She then took out her phone, and dialed a number. “Are the two bodyguards I have arranged especially for Isha ready? Tell them to come here now.”

Isha opened her eyes wide in shock upon hearing what Himanshi had said. She knew that Himanshi had never liked her. But she didn’t expect that Himanshi was this vicious.

It seemed that Himanshi wanted to drug her and found someone to rape her. Such a vicious woman!

Isha stood up and sneered. Himanshi heard some movements, so she turned around. Seeing Isha standing in front of her, she took a few steps back. “You... you are not asleep?”

“Himanshi, it must have been very hard for you to pretend to be a good daughter in the Sharma family for a long time. Do you feel comfortable now that you have finally taken off your mask?” Isha said with a hint of mockery in her cold eyes.

“I don’t understand what you mean.” Himanshi’s face turned deathly pale. She was so scared to be exposed that her nails dug into her palms, and she couldn’t dare to meet Isha’s eyes.

Isha grabbed Himanshi’s wrist. She was taller than Himanshi, so she blocked the way, not giving Himanshi a chance to run away.

Isha used her other hand to pinch Himanshi’s chin, forcing her to open her mouth wide.

There was a rare coldness in Isha’s lazy voice when she said, “No matter what’s in this soup, it’s yours now.”

She then let go of Himanshi’s wrist, picked up the pot of soup, and poured it into Himanshi’s mouth.

Himanshi struggled desperately, shaking her head. But she couldn’t break free from Isha’s grip, so she had no other choice but to let Isha shove the soup into her mouth indiscriminately.

“I didn’t... Isha... You... Let go of me!” Himanshi was choking and coughing nonstop. With a pitiful look on her face, she shook her head vigorously.

The door suddenly opened, and a handsome man strode in. Seeing the scene, he immediately grabbed Isha’s wrist and pulled her away from Himanshi.

He was utterly surprised. “Isha, what are you doing?”

Deepak, you’re just in time. Himanshi put some drugs in the bird’s nest soup. She has also asked some bodyguards to rape me. Good thing I’ve seen through her soon. Now, I am letting her eat up the soup,” Isha replied calmly. A trace of contempt was visible in her beautiful eyes.

The gentle look on Deepak’s face changed when he heard what Isha said. “Is it true?”

Himanshi shook her head pitifully. “No, it isn’t. How can I do such a thing? Isha, I know that you don’t like me, and I can tolerate that. But how can you frame such a vicious thing against me? Mr. Verma, I really didn’t do that...”

Looking at her pitiful face, Deepak felt a little sorry for Himanshi. He then turned to Isha and said, “Isha, you are already the precious daughter of the head of the Sharma family. No one can take that position from you. Why do you have to do this to Himanshi?”

Deepak’s words sounded so harsh in Isha’s ears, and she also felt uneasy upon hearing him calling her half-sister only Himanshi. When did they become so close?

“Are you suspecting that I am deliberately framing her?” she asked, looking at Deepak in disbelief.

“It’s okay for you to be willful at times. But you have to know that there are things you can’t just joke about,” Deepak said to Isha. He then looked at Himanshi with pity in his eyes and added, “Himanshi always puts up with you. But enough is enough.”

Isha stared at Deepak’s handsome face. Seeing his self-righteous look, she felt so ridiculous.

She then asked in a sarcastic tone, “You believe her instead of me?”

Deepak turned his face sideways, his fists clenching in his pockets. He didn’t answer her question.

“What is going on here? Why are you fighting again?” Jigar Sharma, Isha’s father, and his wife, Zuhi, rushed into the room together.

Himanshi immediately threw herself into Zuhi’s arms and cried aggrievedly, “Mom, I really didn’t drug Isha. I also did not find someone to rape her. How could I do such a thing to her?”

The expression on Zuhi’s face slightly changed. “Isha, there may be some sort of misunderstanding here, right?”

“I’ve heard everything she said with my own ears. She even called someone to tell the bodyguards to come to my room. How can it be a misunderstanding?” Isha said.

Himanshi cried bitterly. “How can I do such a heartless thing and ruin your life? Doing such a thing will also ruin my own life. Do you think I am not afraid of being in jail?”

Zuhi’s voice was full of pain when she said, “Hubby, I believe that Himanshi will never do such a thing. But it seems that we can’t reconcile."
