Payal marched downstairs fuming, as the entire family, including Mami's parents, who were staying at RM at Manohar's insistence, watched in horror as Payal yanked Anjali from her seat in the dining hall and slapped her.

Everyone stood up, stunned by what had happened, as Payal fumed, glaring at Anjali, who was also stunned.

"Payal, what is going on?" Akash asked getting closer to his wife.

Payal turned to him and shoved her phone into his hands, and a perplexed Akash looked at the screen, where he discovered a paused video.

He watched the video, and his eyes widened in shock before turning angry when he looked at Anjali.

"For the past few weeks, my jewelry has gone missing, and I initially assumed it was Kiki because she enjoyed wearing them and might have left it somewhere...... The ones that disappeared were fake once I bought at laxmi Nagar so I didn't mind but then my diamond stubs which Savita Dadi gave me for our second anniversary went missing and I knew Kiki wouldn't have taken them because she was at Khushi's mansion so I knew someone in this house took them...... I set up a hidden camera to find the culprit, and lo and behold, Anjali had stolen my sapphire diamond clover bracelet, which babuji had purchased for me." Payal explained, and by now the phone had passed through the entire family, who stared at Anjali with disgust.

Siddharth shook his head, embarrassed and disappointed by Anjali's behavior.

"I apologize on Anjali's behalf, but you have my full support if you want to file a case against her." Siddharth spoke sternly, and Anjali appeared terrified by his words.

"Thanks for your support, but I just want my bracelet and studs back...... It was the first gift I received from my babuji after his recovery, and it holds a lot of sentimental value for me...... I just want it back, and I would appreciate it if you could keep your wife away from me..... I will forgive the others because they have no value to me, but I want my bracelet and diamond studs returned." Payal responded with sadness, and Akash rubbed her back to soothe her.

"I did not take those stupid diamond studs." Anjali yelled and was met with a slap from Akash, which shocked her.

"Do not you dare to yell at my wife...... You either return them, or I will file charges against you." Akash yelled, causing Anjali to flinch. She attempted to retort, but Nani grabbed her hand and dragged her to her room, while the others followed.

"Where have you hidden them?" Nani exclaimed sharply as she walked up to Anjali staring her straight in her eyes.

"But I did not take the diamond studs." Anjali defended herself, but Nani was having none of it and forced her to reveal where she had hidden them.

Anjali, humiliated and aware that she was trapped, opened her old safe, where she discovered a velvet black box and a blue velvet box containing the bracelet.
