Radhika ran out of Samudra she didn't even look back...she kept running till her legs gave up... she got up and took a taxi to Bird Song she needed her friend right now...she had been trying Neil for very long but he wasn't answering....Radhika quickly paid the taxi driver and without taking the change she ran inside...she messaged Teji to come to the reception soon...but before Teji Radhika collided with Sam...Sam was shocked at Radhika's dishelved hair ... dirty clothes ...and her scared eyes... Sam moved forward; ''Chashni ...what's wrong ...why are you like this.... '' But before Sam could utter a single word more Radhika leaped at Sam hugging her tightly Radhika broke down...Sam felt calm when Radhika hugged her...she lifted her arms and hugged Radhika tightly....she rubbed Radhika's back...Radhika was shivering ; ''Chashni please calm down ...you are scaring me...tell me what happened ''

Teji who just saw Radhika in a miserable condition ...just ran towards the board room where Arjun and Neil were busy in an important meeting... Teji just barged in inviting a frown from Arjun and Neil....Teji gulped and looked at Neil...and spoke in broken words ; ''Neil...Chashni....reception...'' Neil jumped and ran hearing Radhika's name... Arjun was stone ....his breathing turned heavy...he could make out it was somthing serious and Bonnie had already told him about morning...Arjun's POV ' Anuj if you have hurt my Radhika even a bit ...I will show you hell on this earth' Arjun walked out to see what made Teji panic...

When Neil went out he couldn't find Radhika at the reception...the receptionist told him that Sam took Radhika to a meeting room...when Neil entered Radhika was drinking water with the glass tightly gripped in her shivering hands ....Neil noticed something..he caught radhika's wrist...it had deep finger marks...Neil sat on his knees he cupped her face; ''Chashni who did this? Radhika just looked at neil and broke down...Neil hugged her ''Chashni...I am with you..tell me if Anuj did this...''

Radhika between her hiccups; ''Anuj proposed me...and w ... when I refused he tried to....'' She broke down again...; ''Neil I want to go back.... I will not stay here...''

Teji who had turned volcano wiped his tears and asked ; ''Running away is something my Chashni will never do...that to because of that pervert....no you are not going anywhere ''

Neil; ''Chashni....you are safe tell me what happened ...'' Radhika looked up and Neil squeezed her hands....Sam rubbed her back...and teji kept a hand on her head...Radhika gathered her strength ...but something which gave her the real power was Arjun standing in the corner...he never spoke a word...but his eyes spoke a tons of them...he had care affection...support and love for Radhika...Radhika narrent what happened...and hour back

Flash Back

Radhika entered Anuj's cabin after he called her.... ''Yes Anuj''

Anuj who facing the window replied without turning ; ''it's a beautiful morning...and now it has become more beautiful because you are with me''

Radhika was shocked... ''Excuse me''

Anuj turned and smiled he slowly walked towards Radhika and stopped a safe distance ; ''I have been trying to tell this for long... I have fallen for you...I want to spend my life with you....your simplicity...down to earth nature and your intelligence is a lethal combination...please be mine''

Radhika was angry; ''Are you kidding me?? I am married...I am still Radhika Arjun Mehra...and I don't have any feelings for you and I never will''

Anuj little irritated; ''But you are separated...getting divorce is easy...if you prove that your marriage was not a happy one and Arjun tortured you''

Radhika; ''Mind your business Anuj...its my marriage whether I should keep it or not is my decision...pls stay out of it''

Radhika tried moving out of the room but Anuj grabbed her arm... '' You are my business...do you know I just wanted to use you against Arjun.. but I fell for you...and that day at the awards you looked breath taking... I wanted to confess there ... but Neil cam in between...''
