Randhir's p.o.v:
"Take care of Sanyukta ,randhir. She is new here. Help her to adjust" my aunt was chipping these things and I was just nodding my head. My uncle also thinks she's not like her father. How can people trust so easily? I can never do that after what happened with my father.
"Okay bye maa. Take care" I said hugging her. I don't know what would happen to me if she was not there. She loves me like her own son and I too love her like my mother. We broke the hug and she kissed my forehead .
"Sanyukta! Come here" she called her. I turned around to find her coming in our direction. I looked at her face. Red nose, swollen eyes and her face was washed. Her face, devoid of any expressions. The glow on her face was missing. She was just forcing a smile which was not reaching her eyes.
"Okay bye beta, bye Randhir" maa said and left with uncle.
Looking at her I remember her father and then it strikes me that today is a very important day. I'm going to get all the things I've lost. I went to our room and freshened up. I looked at the clock and realised that I was running out of time. I dashed out of the house.
I reached office after a few minutes. I reached on time. The press has still not arrived. Today, i'm going to tell the whole world about my real identity. After sometime the press arrived along with them there was Aggarwal smiling thinking about this rich he is going to get today. But, he doesn't know what I've planned for him. I've never seen a greedy person like him. Always in the thoughts of money that he did not even care about the human relations.
Yesterday immediately after the marriage, he sent me the joint venture papers . I've got them exchanged and put the papers I wanted. He even signed those papers without reading them. I bloody knew that he wouldn't care to read. After the signing of the papers I left to office to inform Avinash about what we were going to do. After that I again went back to those thoughts and I ended up myself in the bar. Avinash informed me that everybody has arrived breaking my trance.
"Thank you guys for coming. I've never revealed my identity. So, first of all let me introduce my self, I'm Randhir Singh Shekhawat son of Harsh and Renuka Shekhawat" from the corner of my eyes I could see Aggarwal's shocked expressions. "Today the son-in-law of Kishore Aggarwal. I've called up this summit to make an important announcement. My father-in-law i.e Mr. Kishore Aggarwal is transferring his three fourth property on my name. Here are the papers " I showed the press the papers. Aggarwal's forehead had sweat beads I could easily sense the tension on his face. He couldn't speak a word against me, nobody is going to believe him. As everything is in my favour. I smirked looking at his helplessness.
The press noted down eveything. I gestured Avinash and the press was called off.
I was sitting in my cabin when Aggarwal dashed inside. I knew something like this was going to happen.
"How dare you do this?" He asked in rage. "What did I do?" I asked him acting innocent. "You've cheated on me" he said. "I just trapped you in your game" I told him controlling myself to not strangle him to death. I think it strikes him. "You are eharsh's son right? Just like him, you are also a bloody cheater" this broke my chain of control. "Dare you speak anything against my dad" I said holding his collar." You are the traitor not my dad. You cheated my dad then and transferred all the property on your name and now also you were trying to do the same thing with me. What did you think ? I will not know? You thought that everything was going according to you when everything was going according to me. You didn't even care about your daughter got her married to me, for your profit" I said and left his collars with a force that he stumbled back. "I will not leave you like this", he said and left. I closed my eyes sitting on my chair.

Sanyukta's p.o.v:After the morning conversation with Randhir I was totally broken. After sometime sharmila informed me that they are leaving and maa has called me. I wiped my tears and washed my face to wipe away the traces of my smudged kajal.
I found Randhir and maa hugging each other as I came down. I bade a bye to them as they left. Randhir was standing beside me all the time. I did not even look at him for once as I was trying to absorb everything that was happening with me. I saw him go back to our room. I wanted some time alone and so I left to the garden . I was just wandering in the garden when I heard a cars noise. I went inside and asked Sharmila. She informed me that Randhir left to office. I chipped an okay and asked her to make one coffee for me.
I was sitting in the hall and was flipping some news channels when the door bell rang. I went and opened the door to see an elderly man, who must be my father's age. He smiled looking at me. "Are you sanyukta?" He asked me.
"Yes" I said and gave him space to enter as I thought him to be some of randhir's relative."I'm sorry but I don't know you" I said hesitantly. ",It's okay beta. You never met me before how are you going to know me? I'm Harsh, Randhir's father" he said. I immediately touched his feet to take his blessings. He blessed me with a loving smile on his face."your eyes are like kishore" he said . He knows my father? But how?
"I know what you're thinking. You are thinking how I know your father right?" He asked me and I nodded with a shy smile."Come I'll tell you" he said and we both walked towards the sofa. Sharmila brought us two cups of coffee and put it on the table before us. We sat down and I forwarded the cup towards him and saw that his eyes were fixed to the television screen. I turned and glanced at the screen. I still couldn't understand what was happening. I turned towards Randhir's dad and he was also trying to do the same thing. The news headlines said " Mr. Kishore Aggarwal to transfer his three fourth property on his son-in-law's name"
"The Shekhawats back to power after 17 years""I told him not to do anything. I knew he would do something like this" he chipped and I shifted my gaze on him. "What is happening dad?" I asked him sitting before him. He looked up at me. " Please tell me dad what's going on? I want to know everything" I pleaded him. He was the only person who could tell me what's going on.
"Kishore and I were friends from college. We were best friends. Our friendship continued even after college. I started my own company and became successful in less time. I got married to Renuka one of my father's friend's daughter. When it was my sister Malini's time to get married I suggested Kishore as I knew him really well. Everybody agreed but on the engagement day Malini eloped and got married to the person she loved. She left a letter for us. I was really disappointed with her as she hid that from me. I apologized to Kishore, he became really upset. Then later he got married to your mother. He forgave me. I was really happy that our friendship continued. Years later, kishore's business was running in losses. He asked me for help. He wanted to merge our companies. I first denied but later agreed on renuka's insistence. I trusted him but he cheated on me. He transferred all my property on his name. At the same time, Renuka was suffering from cancer last stage.
FB:
"Kishore what is this?" I asked him.
"You were easily fooled harsh" he said I was shocked seeing his new behaviour. "But we are friends right?" I asked him. "Haha...friends my foot. I never considered you as my friend. You were always ahead of me in everything. I just hated you since college. You always tries to show me down. Fixed my marriage with your sister and embarrassed me. I was still play with it. When I asked you to merge our companies you denied. You wanted to show me you were always above me. So, I thought I deserved this" he said. I couldn't react . My best friend had cheated me.That day I was broken . As I lost my everything, I couldn't do anything for renuka's health . I was not able to pay her medical bills. I always tried to ask kishore for help but he avoided me all the time. . I don't know how Randhir knows about this. He always told me he will take what was ours. He believed that Renuka couldn't live any longer because of Kishore. I tried make him understand about his mother's situation . Nothing helped. Today he did what he wanted to.
I was numb after hearing to this. There were a lot of emotions running in my head. I was trying to absorb everything, to be more precise the truth.
"Dad" we turned towards the source of voice. It was Randhir.
