Abb dusro ki nazdeeki ka ehsaas bhi kya kare
Zaroorat jinke kareeb hone ki hain wahi anjaan hain mere khayaalo se

"Everyone knows he will win in Uttarpradesh, after all he pretends to be a good Politician infront of the world. But I know that Karthik Malhotra is wicked bai sa." Anika couldn't speak for a few minutes. And couldn't understand what was happening.

Karthik Malhotra? The man she agreed to be the personal lawyer of. She was finding it hard to believe, Karthik might be the most wicked man possible on this earth but he is not a Rapist. Not after how he treats his daughter. But being a good father doesn't mean he is a good man, does it? No, he can't be a rapist! He fucking stood against his own brother because he was a rapist.

"Kaka, aap, aap sure hain? Like Are you hundred percent sure it was Karthik Malhotra?"
"Ji Bai sa, Meri beti mujhse jhooth kyon bolegi bhala?" Anika nodded her head and looked at Diya who sat across the couch, Diya blinked her eyes indicating Anika to agree to whatever Mukesh is saying at this moment.

"Aap fikr mat kijiye kaka, The wrong person will be punished. I promise you."

"Thank you Bai sa. I will take my leave now, Veronica is alone at home." She nodded and kept her head on her father's shoulder looking at Mukesh who stepped out of the Haveli.

"Karthik Malhotra? You think he can do something like this?" Ridhima asked with a frown. The whole rathore family was confused, with what Abhimanyu, diya and Everyone told them about Karthik he seemed like a good Politician and an even better father. Then how come he is a rapist?

"Nahi badi ma, He can't be a the rapist, there is more to the story than we know." Diya spoke, looking straight at anika who nodded her head. "I am going to freshen up, you all don't have to worry about it my lovely people. I am Karthik Malhotra's personal lawyer at this moment. I will handle it."

Avinash looked at his daughter as she stepped out of the living room and Asked everyone to get back to what they were doing, he is sure she have something on her mind already.

Anika on the other hand walked straight towards her bathroom, Slipping out of her attire she stepped into the shower. The droplets of hot water fell on her body letting her nerves relax. She could see the scenes replaying in her head. How he didn't saved his brother, how he is so loving and caring towards his daughter and then all the things that Mukesh spoke. "Ugh, I need to read those files!"

She took a deep breath and hoped out of the shower turning the nob off. Wiping off the water from her body she walked to the cabinet and took out her Hair dryer. Standing infront of her mirror she tried to make her choice wisely. Three life's are dependent on her one decision. If she chooses Veronica, and she turned out to be wrong, She will ruin both Karthik and kavya's life. And if she chose Karthik without thinking, she will be ruining Veronica's life and kavya will also not be able to meet Her mother.

Walking out of her bathroom she sat on her bed and dialled viren, Her colleague's number. "Hello?" Viren spoke when he picked the call after three rings.

"Viren, are you still at the firm?"
"Haan, Why?"
"Great, I need a favour actually. Can you drop the files from Mr. Malhotra at my home please?"

"Oh, sure. I will don't worry about it." Anika thanked him and hanged up the call before opening the soft copy of Karthik's basic information list on her phone. She copied the phone number on her clipboard and went to the call logs. Dialling his number.
