The two years that followed Rajesh's financial meltdown were dark days. His restaurant struggled to stay afloat, and he had to pour in more of his own money to keep it running. He argued constantly with Priya, who was fed up with his financial recklessness.

Priya had always been the voice of reason in their relationship, but now she felt like she was shouldering the burden alone. She demanded that Rajesh get his finances in order, but he was too proud to listen.

As the fights escalated, Priya began to feel like she was losing the man she loved. She started to wonder if she had made a mistake in marrying Rajesh. The stress took a toll on her health, and she started to feel like she was drowning.

One day, Priya reached her breaking point. She told Rajesh that she wanted a divorce. Rajesh was devastated, but he knew he couldn't blame her. He had broken her trust, and he didn't know how to fix it.

Rajesh realized that he had hit rock bottom. He had lost his wealth, his pride, and now he was on the verge of losing his marriage. He knew he needed to make a change, but he didn't know where to start.
