Extremely late update...I know. So don't waste your time and start reading the update.

Three days later...

Quite a few things happened right after this Arjun-me-confrontation-divorce-shit-nonsense-incident. I was officially divorced or lets say free from all the ties associated with him. I used to wonder why my heart was still stuck with that man. Maybe because, we were still somehow together? But now, it was over and it gave me a kind of uncomfortable satisfaction. If someone would have asked me if I was ready to go through this divorce shit seven to eight years back, I would have laughed it off but now, I feel this was imperative and it should have happened.

Okay so back to the things that happened...

After leaving his home I went straight to see my children who were with Meera. They were already asleep and I couldn't help but wonder for the first time in six years, if I was doing it wrong...keeping them away from their dad. It was my choice to have them stay with me. Arjun just abided by my wish. Everything was going the way I wanted but I was somehow feeling selfish and also scared.
Scared because I didn't know if I could raise two children all alone. Ofcourse, I've managed until now and that too so well but the point here is that the father always plays a very crucial role in a child's life and in our case, they'd always live with this thing that their parents parted ways even before they were born.

He didn't show but I knew he terribly wanted to be with our children. It was kind of making me guilty for keeping my children in dark and Arjun too for all these years. He deserved it but still, it was not all his fault. Not that I'd started having feelings for him but I just can't put the entire blame on him too, right?

Yes, he indeed was an asshole but I could never hate him and now I just feel neutral towards him, just trying to weigh the things as per they should be and not based on my personal or emotional feelings towards him.

I kept myself awake and smoked all night. The things that Disha Neil and Preet did were all I could think about. I just couldn't contemplate why they did this? Just because I married Arjun?
And Arjun? Why did he have to behave in such an immature way? For he thought this was the best thing for both of us? Arjun should have talked to me. Atleast once. But who cares now. It's all over.

Okay so, the following day, I got a huge surprise. The news channels were flooded with Neil-Disha news. The clips were circulating widely.
Neil's forty minute long audio clip was in my inbox, sent to me by Arjun with no message but just an attachment and it had all her confessions. Neil's license as a practicing lawyer was on boards for cancellation. What got my spine on frost was the content of the pendrive which was about to be leaked to the Malhotra's rival companies. Preet was such bitch. Neil's firm was taking care of all the legal requirements of the company and she fucking used this as an opportunity to fuck with the sensitive information of one of his most ambitious projects till date? His hardwork could have been ruined within seconds.

But why did Preet give Arjun the pendrive? Well I got the answer to this very soon when Mahira told me it was Preet's way of letting Arjun know that his company would be destructed and these were the confidential informations she was going to leak. She had the copy of all of them and she was going to release them the very next day.

Now later I got to know what Mahira was exactly doing there. She was trying to crack into Neil's system to get his firm's details and Arjun wanted that to use it against Neil! She had called me because she couldn't contact Arjun at that moment and she was stuck and god forbid if that bastard Neil would have found out, he would have killed the poor soul and I literally wanted to slap both Arjun and Mahira for taking this up and since when Arjun and Mahira became such good friends? Like she was there in every fucking plan of Arjun? Helping him out! And I was clueless. Okay I need to stop ranting about them now.
