21 bab Bersambung Title: When Rivals Fall
In the glittering high-rises of Mumbai's legal world, two brilliant minds collide-each ambitious, determined, and utterly opposed. Ira Mehra is a disciplined, no-nonsense corporate lawyer determined to prove her worth in a male-dominated industry. With her sharp intellect and unwavering drive, she's built a reputation for never backing down. Her life revolves around one goal: living up to her father's legacy while carving out her own.
Enter Aarav Dutt-charming, audacious, and dangerously competitive. Known for his unorthodox methods and effortless charisma, Aarav has made a name for himself not just as a top-tier lawyer, but as Ira's fiercest rival. Every courtroom battle, every boardroom deal, has become a game of one-upmanship between them. Sparks fly every time they're in the same room-most often fueled by irritation, but laced with a tension neither is willing to admit.
But when a high-stakes merger forces them to work side by side, the walls they've built around themselves begin to crack. What starts as begrudging collaboration slowly evolves into reluctant respect, and before long, undeniable attraction. Beneath their banter and ego wars, both Ira and Aarav begin to uncover parts of each other they never expected-vulnerability, passion, and a shared desire for something more than professional glory.
As lines blur between rivalry and romance, the two must decide if risking their pride-and their hearts-is worth the chance at something real.
"When rival fall" is a slow-burn, hate-to-love Indian romance that explores ambition, identity, and the healing power of love in the most unexpected places.
