Prerna came downstairs, hoping to fix herself something sweet. She was expecting ice-cream in the fridge, and just the thought of some delicious chocolate ice cream had her mouth watering, and her eyes shining.

"Baby loves Ice-cream it seems", she kept her hand over her stomach and talked to her unborn child, a genuine smile spread across her face. Rummaging the fridge, she settled on a huge tub of ice-cream, and was about to exit the common kitchen and go back to her room, when Mohini Basu's shrill voice reached her. Frowning, she walked out to the drawing room, more than surprised to find her mother and sister standing, and Mohini shouting at them.

"Who allowed them to come? It's my house and I don't allow betrayers to enter here. All they do is eat up my family's happiness!", Mohini threw her hands in air and yelled loud, shooting draggers at Veena Sharma, who stood rooted, looking down.

"Maa!", Prerna called out, and keeping her ice cream down, she walked in fast steps to reach her mother, happy to see her here for she had been missing her family so much.

"Sure, only you were left, Mrs. Gold digger", Mohini snickered, "The entire family has sworn to ruin my peace. God knows what did I do to invite such vile people in my life, I can't even stand the sight of these low life creatures!", Mohini Basu continued to scream, and insult the Sharmas, and when Prerna reached near her to cross over to her family, Mohini pushed her, wanting to throw her out to.

Veena gasped at the audacity, and Shivani stilled, but before Prerna could fall down, Rishabh's hands held her steady, helping her stand on her feet, making the Sharmas release the tense breath they were holding. Prerna stood mortified, tears in her eyes, the fear gripping her. What if the fall hurt her baby?

Protectively pulling Prerna behind his back, as if protecting her from all the negativity, Rishabh stood like a wall in front of her, his eyes glaring at the Basu lady, his hands fisted by his side

Protectively pulling Prerna behind his back, as if protecting her from all the negativity, Rishabh stood like a wall in front of her, his eyes glaring at the Basu lady, his hands fisted by his side.

"Mrs. Mohini Basu, I think you are getting really old. Memory issues, yeah?", Rishabh's smirk made Shivani smile, and Mohini a bit more angry.

"You-", she pointed a finger at him, but was cut off by his shaking of the head.

" Don't. You have already made a huge mistake by handling Mrs. Prerna Rishabh Bajaj in the wrong way, and to say, she is the lady with much more money worth than you, for that's the language you understand", Rishabh's words took Mohini by surprise, but Prerna and her family weren't any less astonished.

" I had told you this very clearly before, and I am repeating again. Do not manhandle my wife, or her family. If you are going to see monetory worth, Prerna, being Mrs. Bajaj stands at far more worth than you do or your family does. Her family, are my people, and I don't tolerate disrespectful behaviour towards my family. I will file a case against you, trust me, if this is ever repeated, Mrs. Mohini Basu. Prerna has a heart of gold, I don't. Remember that and now apologize!", Rishabh's voice sent chills through her, his eyes raging fire at her.
