At Rudra's Farmhouse

Rudra stormed into the mansion, dragging Siya along by her arms, his grip tight and furious. He pulled her toward his room, slamming the door behind them with a loud bang that echoed through the quiet house.

Rudra: (breathless with anger) Why did you go to him? Were you that desperate to be touched, huh?

Siya: (stammering) N-n-no...

Rudra: (cutting her off) Just shut the fuck up! Today, I'll show you what happens if someone messes with Rudra Singhania.

Without another word, he yanked open the balcony door and marched her outside, where the moonlit swimming pool glimmered ominously.

Rudra: (shouting) Now you'll stay here for the whole night! If you dare to come out, you'll face the consequences!

He threw her into the pool, and the cold water enveloped her, making her gasp. As she splashed around, she clung desperately to the edge, panic setting in.

Siya: (crying) I don't know what I did in my past life to deserve this torture!

She didn't know how to swim, and even though the pool wasn't deep, the fear of drowning consumed her. She remembered when Rudra had come with the marriage proposal, thinking it would free her from her hell, but here he was, making her suffer even more.

Meanwhile, Rudra stormed back inside, fury boiling inside him. He grabbed his phone and called Nivyansh.

Rudra: (gritting his teeth) You were following him, right? Did you catch him?

Nivyansh: (panting) No, I'm running behind him!

Rudra: (furious) Catch him as soon as possible, then hang his body in the jungle. How dare he touch my wife!

Nivyansh: (shaken) Okay, Bhai!

Rudra hung up, his heart racing. He headed into the bathroom, turning the shower on, hoping the cold water would help cool his temper. But as the water washed over him, his mind was still reeling.

Rudra: (frustrated) Why am I still thinking about those things?

After a long shower, he finally decided to sleep, but rest didn't come easy. In the dark, he was haunted by visions of that moment, the image of Siya with Rivyansh lingering in his mind.

Rudra: (thinking) I married her for revenge, but she's my wife. How can she betray me like this?

He tossed and turned, unable to escape the anger boiling within him. Finally, he couldn't take it any longer. He stormed back to the balcony, flinging open the door.

Rudra: (seeing Siya crying) What the hell!

Siya's eyes widened in fear as she saw him, and she panicked, releasing her grip on the edge of the pool. She started thrashing about, arms and legs flailing, thinking she would drown.

Siya: (screaming) Help! I can't swim!

She had held the edge once, but the terror of Rudra and the water made her forget everything.

Rudra: (furious) Stop acting!! No one can drown in this pool!!

He stormed over, grabbing her by the arm, pulling her out of the pool with a rough yank.

Rudra: (breathless) You think you can play games with me?

As soon as he pulled her out, he dragged her back into the room and pinned her against the wall, his mind racing with anger and confusion. Thoughts of what Nivyansh had said about her betrayal echoed in his head.
