Pratha enters in the office. There's a tilak on her forehead because she's directly coming from temple. She finds out something is fishy. Everyone is staring at her weirdly. She ignores and going towards lift. While she heard two girls are talking.

Girl 1: hmm...... And she always pretends to be innocent and helpless.

Girl 2: yeah, and her those behavior made Veer sir please on her

Pratha feels like land has moved from her beneath. The lift door opens but she turns back and leaves from there. Tears made their way through her cheeks. She comes out of the office and gets into a taxi which she finds as soon as she came out.
