Aabi opened her eyes only to see he was not around her. She patted the other side of the bed to feel his presence, but the cold sheets told her he did not even come to bed for the whole night. She looked at the wall clock with her blurry sight. It was striking five in the morning.

Jungkook often worked late nights but still came to sleep beside her for a few hours. It was the first night in the last three months that he hadn't come to her for the whole night... The damn whole night.

"Maybe he has not come due to the workload."  She knew the nature of his work, so she didn't notice much.

"Maybe he's busy somewhere and will come a little later."  Satisfying her own self, she lay back down.

"He might have come into the room, but I might have been so deep asleep that I have not noticed his presence."  Thinking in different directions she again tried to sleep, hoping that he might come in some time.

Poor thing if knew that how much punishment she would get in future for hiding that one truth from Jungkook, she would never have thought of hiding it.

She was thinking that he must be busy doing some office work, and there he was... Sitting on the terrace at that moment busy fighting a cold war with his own heart and mind.

His heart was compelling his mind to admit that Aabi is innocent, but mind was bargaining that if she is innocent, then who was that guilty girl in the video?

He had been sitting here on the terrace for the last five hours, drinking cups of coffee one after the other and thinking about the video he had seen a few hours ago.

His eyes were red because of continuous intake of caffeine. His heart was beating unevenly as he was in a state of complete restlessness.

Such a video reaching his doorstep and that too when he had already announced his marriage to his entire social and business circle clearly meant that there was someone who did not want him to marry Aabi. That was the actual purpose of highlighting her in the video. But the video did not seem to be copied or edited from anywhere.

And after all, who could have a problem with His and Aabi's marriage? The answer was, 'thousands of people...' Which one could he possibly identify out of thousands...? He needed strong evidences to grab anyone's collar...

A few names suddenly appeared in his mind but disappeared immediately because he didn't want to think about going off limit now. But if these were the people which his mind processed, then one thing was sure that not a single one of them was going to survive alive out of his hands.

As for now, he was extremely angry with Aabi that why the hell she hid this part of story from him. If there was such a thing, she should have told him. So that he would have taken matters into his own hands at the very beginning and would not have let it come to this extent.

The whole night passed in this dilemma as to why Aabi hid such a big truth from him...?

Does she still not trust him, or doesn't she think he is capable of handling her affairs, handling her honor?

Rubbing his red eyes, he thought about every possibility that could have happened to her.

Perhaps she had lost her feminine dignity and grace even before she came to him. But this was a point on which Jungkook did not want to think at all.

He had no problem with her previous life and who she had been in a relationship with, in the past.

His own past was also not very crystal clear. Therefore, he believed that he had no right to raise a finger even on Aabi's past.
