Love or Revenge

Chapter 23

In the cab way back to their apartment, Grace asked, "What is your plan now? Are you going to deceive Aditya that you married him to help him and back-stab him for the rest of his life?"

"Grace, I told you, this marriage is important to me to get into Hooda Mansion to execute my plan to get to the rest of them. Then why are acting like you don't know anything", Zoya said.

"Zoya, I didn't say that I don't know, but why did you deceive Aditya by saying you're helping him from the marriage and then you back-stab him by marrying him", Grace asked in little high tone.

"Tone down your voice, Grace. I did help Aditya from not marrying Pooja. Didn't you see how desperately he married me when he saw Pooja at the hall again? I kind of helped him to help me to get into Harshawardhan's life. And why are you keep on saying that I'm back-stabbing him?", Zoya said.

"Oh yea... you didn't... Just tell me what are you planning to do after you get your revenge? Are you planning to be in this marriage with Aditya? Are you going to make babies with him? Oh.. Yea.. what do you think he'll do when he comes to know how you deceived him to kill his own father? Do you think after that he'll come to you happily and say well done or come let's move on and have a happy family?" Grace stacked up the question that Zoya doesn't want to think as of now.

"I don't know... and I don't care about anything that happens after I get my revenge. Can you please shut up for some time and I don't want to talk about anything now", she said furiously in low tone. "You don't want to or you don't like to talk about those things", Grace asked gritting her teeth.

"Grace, please can you please stop talking. My head is aching and seriously I don't want to think about anything now", Zoya said. And Grace didn't respond, she looked away from Zoya and Zoya can clearly see that Grace is angry with her for taking this step to exact her revenge.

At the apartment, Grace was packing their important stuff and they had informed the house owner that they won't be staying there but they want to retain the house and they would require the house. 

Zoya has told her that she wanted Grace to be there with her in the Hooda Mansion till she finds a way to get her married to Arjun and she may need her help in the next plan too. Grace didn't respond but started off with packing their stuffs to move to Hooda Mansion.

After changing to Salwar Kameez and she safely folded Aditya's mother's saree and packed it in her bag. Zoya started off packing her office things and her mind drifted off to the night when Harshawardhan destroyed the evidence against Pooja. She scolded Aditya was being naive and stepped out of the house. She expected that Harshawardhan can go to such extent to make this marriage happen. She thought if she stops this marriage then it would create a big dent in his business. To come out of such damage he has to sell his share and has to face a huge loss.

She knew that he would go to any extent but she didn't expect that her plan would fail. She scratched her head, and then realized that she has to execute her plan B. She had planned it when she found the videos from Aman's phone but she didn't want to execute it because it would hurt more than one person including her. But with no other choice she has to execute that plan to bring that damage in Harshawardhan's life.

Next morning, she called Pooja at first she didn't answer the call but then she took it at second time. "Hello, Pooja here..." she said after answering. "Hi Pooja, it's me, Zoya", Zoya said hoarsely. "What do you want? Why did you call me at this hour?" She asked.

"Well... before I tell you that I want you to know that I know you're behind my abduction and I have proof to prove it", Zoya said. "I know it got destroyed too. Harsh Uncle told me about everything and I don't have to worry till Harsh Uncle is with me", Pooja said angrily. Zoya clicked her tongue and with smile she asked, "Oh yea... do you think he can save you from what I'm going to tell you?" She heard Pooja's harsh breathe but she didn't respond. "Pooja... I want you to meet me in another one hour at Starbucks, off link road", Zoya said. "What made you think that I would come?" Pooja asked.
