Pov:Arjun

The bride entered the mandap, adorned like a porcelain doll in her royal red wedding lehenga.

Meanwhile, I sat with Sid, savoring gulab jamun instead of feeling nervous. Sid couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked, "What are you planning, boss?" I took another bite, savoring the sweetness, and replied, "Just wait and watch, Sid..." The priest called for the groom.

Ignoring the summons, I continued to eat, with Sid's anxious eyes fixed on me

Ignoring the summons, I continued to eat, with Sid's anxious eyes fixed on me.

My name was called again... but I didn't move.

Suddenly, the large LED screens displaying the live mandap scene flickered and abruptly switched to a different video. The room fell silent as the recording began to play-Mr. Biswas, my soon-to-be father-in-law, was meeting with one of my rivals.

The moment Mr. Biswas recognized the footage, his face paled, his eyes wide with panic.

I smirked, finishing the last piece of gulab jamun as the video revealed the chilling conversation:

Mr. Biswas : So, he's really going to marry my daughter.

Rival: What's your next move against him?

Mr. Biswas: I'm going to destroy his shipments to Australia.

Rival: You've tried that and failed. What makes you think this time will be different?

Mr. Biswas : That Arjun found my spy in his group and killed him, but he won't see this coming. On the day of the wedding, another shipment is set to dispatch. I'll have it seized, but that's just the beginning.

Rival: Bold move. But what about your daughter? She's set to marry him.

Mr. Biswas chuckled darkly, his smirk more sinister.

Mr. Biswas : That's the beauty of it. Once he marries my daughter, he'll be bound by that wretched inheritance clause-unable to escape. And when he's at his weakest, I'll strike. I've made arrangements for his downfall to be swift and brutal, both in business and in life. By the time I'm through with him, he'll be begging for mercy... but there won't be any. His marriage will be the noose around his neck.

 His marriage will be the noose around his neck
