Neil is looking for a chance to escape from the moment to follow Mr Birla and Badi Maa.

However, he knows Aarohi, she will have a close eye on his moments. Tricking her is the challenge among the rest.

Thankfully Akshara and Shefali pull Aarohi inside the mansion while chit-chatting.

Assuring he is out of Aarohi's sight, Neil turns around to follow them but is stopped by Abhimanyu --

Bhai kah jaa raha hain, aaj teri hi sagaai hain. Hum sab tere khushi mein shamil hone ke liye yah ek jut hain.

Neil smiles hearing his bhai's voice after so long. He hugged him and said --

Thank you, Bhai! Wo bas meine Amyra ke liye jo gift laya thaa wo bhool gaya, usse hi lene ja raha hu.

Abhimanyu -
Mei drop kardu?

Neil --
Nahi bhai, pass mein hi mein jaldi se le aata hu. Aap bass ye baat kissi ko bhi nahi batyega ki mein bhar hu.

Abhimanyu nods in a positive reaction and moves inside the mansion.

Without giving a glance at Amyra, he walks out of the main gate.

Trying to know their whereabouts he begins to ask nearby shops and guards if they have seen Harsh or Swarna.
Finally, after 10 minutes of searching, he sees Harsh car in front of a flat.

While running towards the gate he takes out a handkerchief from his right pocket of the kurta and masks his half-face.

There was a security guard at the main entrance.

Keeping his phone on silent -- rolling both of his sleeves up into half --- walking on his toe --he grabs the guard's mouth from his back and to refrain him from dodging he holds his hands in a tight grip.

Dragging him to the corner of the building he ties him against the pillar.

Turning around Neil calmly said to the guard:

Sorry Kaka, aapke saath zabardasti nahi karna chahta thaa par mere aur mere maa ke beech jo bhi ayega usko toh hatna hi hoga.

He then starts rushing towards the staircase. It was a two-floor building. Neil first tries to listen to the vague voice of Harsh screams and Swarna's cry.

Then opening his shoes he climbed to the second floor. His traditional shoes had heels and he did not want them to have any faint idea about his presence.

Keeping the shoes aside he goes towards the door and leans his ear trying listening to their conversation.

Harsh furiously:-

For the past 30 years you have made my life miserable.

A glass break sound suddenly echoes the room --

You're are the reason I had to marry Manjiri forcefully. Neil ki bhi galti tumhari dokhe ke wajah se hua.

Par tumhein toh Manish ji ke saath kiya hua wada nibhana thaa.. Kyun aayi thii uss raat mere office cabin mein..

Neil could not believe his ear what he was hearing. His so-called dad and Aarohi & Akshara's Badi Maa had a gruesome past.

To calm himself, he sits on the floor parallel to the door and listened.

Swarna cry increases --

Harsh please meri ek baar baat sunle phir jo chahiye wo saza dedena.

And then multiple pot breaking sounds come from the room.

1994 ki wo raat mein aaj tak nahi bhula paya.. kyun meine tumhari madaat ki, aur badle mein kya mila mujhe? Asa dhoka..

Swarna retreated in anger --

Dhoka ek tarfa nahi thaa Mr Birla ye baat yaad rhakyega. Mein kuch bhi sunlungi par ye izlam nahi.. jah apko apni patient ki jaan bachani thii wah apne sharat rhki thi.

'Apni dost ke ilaaz ke liye aayi thi mein..'

Swarna cries remembering that horrifying night.

Aur ussi ko dhoka dediya 6 saal baad? Simran ko uss raat apni jagah mere kamre mein bhej diya?

Harsh taunts her with a sarcastic smile.

He warns her in low voice -

Tumhein jo thik laga tumne wo kiya, ab mujhe jo thik lagega Amyra ke liye wo mein karunga. Himat hain toh rok ke dikhana tum maa-beti mujhe. Itne saalo tak avai hi nahi bada kiya hain ki wo Birla khandan ki bahu ban kar aaye.


Hearing Harsh footsteps coming close to the room's gate. Neil hides himself behind a dustbin.

Neil was about to get upwhen he heard Swarna's slow footsteps and faint voice.

Aarohi ye sab tumhari wajah se hua hain, iska hisab toh dena hoga tumhein.. Tadapa tapada ke badla lungi..

Neil in utter shock and disbelief -

Tumhein pata thaa inn sab ke baare mein Aarohi?

He screams,

"Aur kitne dhoke dogi Aarohi.. Kon hain ye Simran.. Sab ke sab dhokebaz hain.."

He throws the dustbin with his leg.

"Mujhe ye ceremony khatam hote hi The Ray of Hospital join karna hain, wahi mere sawalo ka jawab mil sakta hain.. Simran jo bhi hain, wahi admit hain.."

He walks towards the mansion with eyes red shot, his hand veins are visible because of anger.

All he wishes is to destroy every person involved in his mother's death..
