As the day drew to a close and the clock struck 9 in the evening, Viyansh had yet to return home. Earlier, he had informed Vaidehi that he would be attending a small celebration for the finalization of a deal in London, as Shruti and her boss were returning the next day. He assured her that he would be back by 8, knowing that Vaidehi preferred not to have dinner without him. However, despite his plans, Viyansh had not returned home by the agreed-upon time. Restlessly pacing around the living room, Vaidehi's eyes remained fixed on the door, her heart heavy with an unspoken fear that something was amiss. Sensing her unease, Vikram approached her, concerned by her troubled demeanor.

Vikram: "Ladoo, have your dinner. Viyansh might be running late, and he did inform you, right?"

Vaidehi: "Popsy, I'm not feeling good about this. unhone kaha tha 8 baje tak aa jayenge 9 baj Gaye hai. Mujhe fikr ho Rahi hai, call bhi pick nahi kar rahe hai mera."
(He said he'd be back by 8, and it's already 9. I'm worried, you know. He's not answering my calls either.)

Vikram: "Maybe he's driving and can't pick up. Just have patience."

She nods, and just then she gets a call from Raj (An intern).

Vaidehi: "Why is he calling me now?"

She picks up the call, and as soon as she hears his words, she becomes tense.

Vaidehi: "Please, Raj, send me the live location, and see if you can do anything."

She abruptly ended the call, her expression displaying the worry that gnawed at her insides.

Vaidehi: "Ahaan bhai, Raj , veer, please come down fast."

She was extremely tense.

Vikram: "What happened, Ladoo?"

Vaidehi: "Popsy, we need to go right now."

Vihaan, Viraj, and Virat came downstairs.

Vaidehi: "Ahaan bhai, she drugged him. We need to go now, and please call Eklavya bhai as well."

Vihaan: "What?"

Vikram: "What are you guys talking about?"

Viraj: "Who is drugged?"

Vaidehi: "Popsy, let's go for now, and we'll tell you everything."

As they settled into two different cars, with Vaidehi and Vihaan in one and Viraj, Virat, and Vikram in the other, they began heading toward their destination. However, their journey was interrupted when a few men suddenly appeared in front of their car. Vihaan swiftly applied the brakes, bringing the car to a sudden halt. In an instant, the situation escalated as a gun was pointed directly at them, with Vaidehi specifically targeted. Shock washed over both of them as they realized the gravity of the danger they were facing. Meanwhile, Vikram, Virat, and Viraj emerged from their own vehicle, ready to assist, but they were quickly apprehended by some of the assailants.

Vihaan: "Kuch bhi ho jaye dahi bahar mat nikalna."
(No matter what happens, don't step out of the car)

As the man approached Vaidehi's side of the door, a sudden gunshot rang out, causing her to instinctively cover her ears in fear and shut her eyes tightly. Vihaan's eyes widened in surprise as he looked in the direction from where the gunshot had originated, only to see Eklavya in his police uniform, accompanied by his team. Without wasting any time, the police engaged in a swift and decisive confrontation with the men, resulting in their arrest.

Vikram: "What's all this happening, Eklavya?"

Viraj: "Bhabhi maa, are you alright?"

Vaidehi stepped out of the car alongside Vihaan, her eyes glistening with tears of fear. Vaidehi approached Eklavya and clasped his hand firmly, her gratitude evident in her expression as she spoke.
