The dark room reeled of blood and fear. A man pleaded for mercy, but his cries fell on deaf ears. The merciless mafia lord, Dev Joshi Singhaniya, stood tall, his cold face unmoved. "Please, sir, leave me..... give me last chance," the man begged. Dev's voice was devoid of emotion. "There's no last chance in my world. You lost your only chance when you betrayed me." The man's desperate cries ended with a gunshot. His head severed from his body, adding to the room's gruesome stains. Dev instructed Ayaan, "Clear this mess. Inform his family it was an accident. We'll take care of them." As night gave way to morning, Ananya Sharma anxiously prepared for her interview. "I know it's my last chance," she said to Avneet. Meanwhile,  Dev emerged from his penthouse, dressed in a sharp black suit. His employees greeted him with reverence. Ayaan briefed him on the day's schedule. "Board meeting, sir, followed by interviews for your new PA." Dev raised an eyebrow. "Why must I interview them? Can't you or anyone else handle it?" Ayaan explained, "Your previous PAs...... had issues sir. I thought it's best you choose personally." Dev nodded curtly and entered his car, Ayaan driving him into the city's bustling streets. Little did Dev know, his world was about to collide with Ananya's, forever altering the course of their lives.
