Five years ago, Ishani and Rohan were the "it" couple of their university until a misunderstood betrayal tore them apart. Ishani fled the city, leaving her dreams behind. Now, she's back, hired as a lead architect for a massive project in Mumbai. ​On her first day, she discovers the CEO of the firm is none other than Rohan Malhotra. But he isn't the sweet boy she once loved. He is now cold, ruthless, and convinced that Ishani was the one who ruined him. He gives her a choice: quit immediately or survive a 90-day probationary period under his direct, harsh supervision. Ishani stays, determined to rebuild her life, but the more they clash, the more their old feelings begin to resurface.

Prologue When honey turns bitter, even sweetness scars the tongue. Revenge that was the fire keeping Arjun Rathore Mehra alive. An orphan turned billionaire, he learned that love was a lie and trust a blade. Power wasn't enough. For his enemy Raj Malhotra sharma, Arjun needed something crueler: Raj's daughter, Aarohi. Twenty years old. Blue eyes like oceans. A fragile girl who believed in fairytales. Arjun gave her soft words, tender smiles, and promises under the stars. She surrendered her trust, her laughter, her innocence. For her, it was love. For him, it was a weapon. Then her world shattered. "I never loved you, Aarohi. You were just my game. My bed. My weapon." Her father's slap burned her skin, her mother's silence sealed her fate. Alone and disgraced, she left behind two trembling words: "Forgive me." Arjun didn't look back. In his mind, she would heal. Arjun thought nothing of it. The project was his. Revenge complete. Until fate punished him. On a crowded street, he saw her again wearied, rough-handed, whispers trailing her: "Carrying a bastard... no better than a whore." Tears fell. And then he saw her belly seven months heavy. Every insult she suffered, every tear she shed was because of him. His revenge had left her alone with a burden she never deserved: a child without a father's name or protection. And in that moment, his triumph turned to ash. That was when honey turned bitter. The project was his. But the price was her. Some wounds never fade. Some sins never find redemption. Some loves cannot survive the moment when honey turns bitter. Because the cruelest truth is this: once honey turns bitter, it can never be sweet again. ❝Has Arjun already lost her forever? Is he too late to mend what he destroyed? Or is fate already written in poison? Can even the bitterest honey still hold a trace of sweetness... if only she lets him in?❞ ✨ When Honey Turns Bitter a tale of love, betrayal, and a revenge that cost more than it ever

Taking a small breath, she whispers, "Sir... may I come in?" and slowly pushes the door open. Zavian is on a phone call- but not just talking. He is shouting. His deep voice echoes like thunder in the room. "I DON'T CARE! FIX IT TODAY, NOT TOMORROW!" Aylin freezes at the doorway, startled. She steps inside quietly, trying not to disturb him, but the moment she places the cup on the desk- His voice blasts again, even louder: "ARE YOU ALL COMPLETELY USELESS?" Aylin jumps in fear. The hot coffee slips from her hand- the cup tilts- and the coffee spills all over the desk, soaking Zavian's papers... ...and splashes on Aylin's hand.
