As Abhay entered the auditorium, Mr. Saxena's face lit up with a warm smile, and he hastily stood up to greet him. Harsh, seated beside Mr. Saxena, remained frozen in shock, his eyes wide with a mix of pain and disbelief.

The bodyguards instinctively moved to shield Abhay, but he gestured for them to step aside, allowing Mr. Saxena to approach him. "Thank you so much, AS...it means a lot that you're here...please come," Mr. Saxena said, his voice filled with genuine warmth.

As Abhay's face came into view, Yuvraj -"Wasn't he supposed to be in London???Phir yaha kya kr rha hai ye...idhar aane se pehle tu baat kr rha tha na isse"

Rishi-"Abe toh mujhe sapna aa rha hai kya...usne bola tha woh London mein...ab yaha tapak jaayega woh bhi idhar...mujhe nhi lga tha"....

Yuvraj taunted-"Aaya bada Abhay ka best friend...sb pta hota hai Abhay ke baare mein ye kaise nhi pta chala ki woh India wapas aa rha hai"

Rishi-"Mein..."

Ruhi-"Chup ho jaayiye aap dono...kya choti se baat per jagadh rhe ho..."

Yuvraj-"Mujhe kuch bolna hi nhi hai..."

Rishi-"Wahi aacha hoga tere liye"...

Yuvraj muttered cursing words under his breath, but Rishi wisely chose to remain silent, receiving a gentle elbow nudge from Janhavi to keep quiet.

Meanwhile, Abhi and Ishu, who had returned after hearing the commotion, stood at the place equally shocked and surprised by Abhay's sudden appearance.

The room was filled with an air of tension and unspoken questions, as everyone struggled to process this unexpected turn of events....

As Abhay made his way towards the stage, the security guards, armed and alert, cleared a path through the throng of reporters and camera crews. Mr. Saxena followed closely behind, beaming with pride, as they navigated through the chaos.

The reporters, eager to capture a glimpse of the elusive AS, pushed and shoved each other, their cameras and microphones at the ready. This was, after all, the first public appearance of the world's number one businessman, and they knew that getting a shot of him would guarantee a boost in ratings.

As Abhay approached the area where Ishu and Abhi were standing, they instinctively moved forward, eager to greet him. But Abhay's sharp gesture halted them in their tracks. He subtly signaled to Rishi and Yuvraj to hold them back, his eyes locked on the two young boys.

Rishi and Yuvraj immediately understood the unspoken warning. They knew that Abhay's enemies were numerous, and any hint of a connection between him and the kids could put them in grave danger. With the media present, even a small mistake could lead to a viral news story, compromising their safety.

Without hesitation, Rishi and Yuvraj gently grasped Abhi and Ishu's hands, restraining them from approaching Abhay. The two boys looked up at their brothers in confusion, wondering why they were being held back.

Then, they followed Rishi and Yuvraj's gaze to Abhay, who was still gesturing for them to wait. His eyes locked onto theirs, and he mouthed a silent message - "Be patient, I'll meet you after the ceremony."

Abhi and Ishu nodded, though still looking perplexed, and reluctantly stayed back, their eyes fixed on Abhay as he continued towards the stage...

Abhay's eyes met the gentle gaze of Ruhaan and Aarav, their soft eyes sparkling with a warmth that made his heart skip a beat. But he quickly averted his gaze, reminding himself that he wasn't here for them. He couldn't afford to fall for their charms, not now, not ever. With a masked expression, he climbed the stairs to the stage, followed closely by Mr. Saxena.
