Inside the abandoned warehouse, shadows danced across crumbling walls, illuminated only by the faint moonlight seeping through grimy windows. Dust-coated crates and rusty machinery littered the space, remnants of a long-forgotten industry. The air reeked of decay and neglect.

Eshana was tied to a chair, her mouth gagged with a strip of cloth. She struggled against the restraints, but couldn't move. Hardik stood before her, his expression cold and unforgiving. Her muffled voice echoed through the silence of the night.

Hardik clicked his tongue and kneeled on the ground with his one knee folded to match her level.

"You know......You're just a stranger to me," Hardik said, his voice low and menacing.

"I never saw you nor heard about you before , but now one emotion is very vivid in my heart for you. Do you want to know what?"

Eshana's eyes widened as Hardik leaned forward.

"Hate," he spat. "I hate you so much. I hate a person like you who is lucky enough to have a younger brother, unlike me, who loves his brother with his life but...... I didn't get a chance to save my little brother when the car ran over him, taking him far, far away from me."

Hardik's eyes blazed with fury.

"But you... You fucking tried to kill your brother, ruining his life. How the hell could you harm someone innocent like Ishan? You're his fucking sister, damn it!"

Eshana closed her eyes due to Hardik loud voice . Hardik forcefully removed the gag.

"Answer me, damn it!" he shouted.

Eshana trembled, her voice barely audible.

"What do you want? Why did you abduct me?"

Hardik stood up, his towering figure looming over Eshana.

"You'll know soon enough," he growled.

Just then, footsteps echoed outside the warehouse. Hardik's head snapped toward the sound.

Shubman stepped into their path, his dark gaze landed upon Eshana's.
Eshana got a ray of hope after seeing Shubman. She knew Shubman is a soft hearted person. If she cries infront of him , Shubman might let her go.

Eshana's eyes pleaded , desperation creeping in.

"Shubman, remember our past? Our love? You loved me once . I'm the real mother of your child. Help me please. I know you'll never let them do anything worst to me ."

Shubman's expression remained unyielding.

Eshana's voice grew shrill.

"I know , I did so many mistakes. But everything I did because I was jealous that you fell in love with another person. You can't forget that we had something special between us. You told me that you can't bear to see tears in my eyes . Can you not forgive me? After everything we shared?"

Shubman was still silent. His eyes were still focused on her .

A figure emerged from the darkness behind Shubman.

"Nice try, Eshana, but your manipulation won't work anymore," the voice said.

Eshana's eyes widened in shock.

"Nehal..." she whispered, her voice trembling.

Nehal stepped beside Shubman, a resolute look on his face.
