Rajveer stood outside Abhimanyu's office, his nerves on edge as he prepared for what was about to unfold. Taking a deep breath, he knocked firmly.
"Come in," Abhimanyu's voice called out.
Rajveer stepped inside, shutting the door behind him. Abhimanyu sat behind his desk, the calm professionalism in his posture betrayed by the flicker of tension in his eyes. He gestured toward the couch opposite his desk. "Have a seat, Bhai. What's this about Siya?"
Rajveer sat down, his hands gripping his knees. He met Abhimanyu's curious yet cautious gaze. "There's something you need to know," he began, his voice low but steady. "Something I should have told you a long time ago."
Abhimanyu's expression shifted, his body tensing. "Go on," he said, his voice tight with apprehension.
Rajveer hesitated for a moment, then spoke. "The letter that tore you and Siya apart... it wasn't real. Alia forged it." Abhimanyu's eyes widened, shock flashing across his face. "What?" he said, his voice barely above a whisper. "What are you saying, Bhai?"
Rajveer leaned forward, the guilt evident in his tone. "Alia was consumed by a terrible misunderstanding. She thought you were responsible for Rishabh's death, that you... that you killed him to take control of the mafia business. She was blinded by grief and anger, and she used that lie to manipulate both you and Siya."
Abhimanyu's face contorted with disbelief. "Rishabh? He was like a brother to me! How could she think I'd ever—" His voice broke, and he buried his face in his hands, overwhelmed.
"I believed her too," Rajveer admitted, his voice heavy with regret. "She convinced me she was seeking justice. That's why I helped her. I thought I was protecting Siya, but I was wrong. So wrong."
Abhimanyu's hands trembled as he looked up, his eyes filled with a mixture of pain and fury. "She destroyed my life," he whispered, his voice raw. "She took Siya away from me. And you... you helped her?"
Rajveer swallowed hard, his own eyes brimming with tears. "I can't take back what I did, Abhimanyu. But I'm here now because you deserve to know the truth. Alia's mother... before she passed, she told Alia everything."
"What do you mean?" Abhimanyu asked, his voice laced with uncertainty.
"Rishabh didn't die because of you," Rajveer said softly. "He sacrificed himself to save you. He believed you were more important to their world. He gave up his life so you could live."
Abhimanyu's expression crumbled, tears spilling freely as the weight of the revelation hit him. "Rishabh..." he choked out, his voice filled with anguish. "I thought I lost him because I failed him. But all this time..."
Rajveer placed a comforting hand on Abhimanyu's shoulder. "I'm sorry, I'm sorry for everything. Alia regrets what she's done, but she's too ashamed to face you. I had to come and tell you myself."
