A single call made there lives ups and down...A Single call made to turn him to the stranger to his family..What made him to call off the marriage, what made him to break with lover.
"Did you ever try to find out what happened to Abhimanyu Takkar?" he asked her.
"No, later I got busy with my studies," she said with a sigh.
"Mukti, if you really loved him, I will help you find him. I will search for him," Manik offered, thinking that something seems suspicious and there are missing pieces in the story, and he wants to support her in any way he could and help her connect the missing dots and know the truth.
Really, Manik?" Mukti asked, surprised and looking at him with amazement. She couldn't believe that she never thought of searching for Abhimanyu.
"Yes, I will," Manik replied, "But you should keep this a secret from your uncle.
But why should we keep this a secret from my uncle?" Mukti asked, curious as to Manik's reasoning.
"It's just that we don't want to trouble him," Manik explained, and we don't want to add any more stress to his life as was busy with his business."
Yes, if we find Abhimanyu, it would be a nice surprise for him, otherwise it's okay, if we won't find him" Mukti said, understanding Manik's reasoning and agreeing to keep it a secret.
Manik dropped her with friends and told her security to look after her and went to Resort
★★★
Manik, while at the resort reviewing files, checked his secret mobile and noticed a missed call from Nandini. He quickly sent her a text message, informing her that he would be able to meet with her later in the evening.
She replied to Manik's message, saying "I will be waiting for you in the library. It's very important, I want to talk to you."
As Manik walked out of his office room, he casually looked around the resort and came across Navya with someone. He recognized the person as one of his friends, that they seemed very close and were behaving affectionately towards each other, such as feeding each other in a loving way. Seeing them together made Manik feel a sense of relief, as if the guilt he had been feeling for leaving her,
As Navya caught sight of Manik, he could see anger in her eyes
Manik's friend looked at him with a sorry expression on his face.Ignoring them, Manik walked to the supervisor and began to talk with him.

The library is well-organized, with books neatly arranged on the shelves and plenty of space for readers to sit and peruse their selections. The atmosphere is quiet, with people reading in hushed tones. Nandini is among them, flipping through book pages aimlessly while keeping an eye on her watch, waiting for Manik to arrive.
She hears her name being called and looks up to see Manik approaching her. She gets up from her seat and walks towards Manik. She looks upset and says "Manik, I'm in a mess, I need to talk to you."
He sees the distress in Nandini's face and tries to calm her down. He says "Relax, let's go for coffee. We can talk about it over there."
She agrees and they both walk to the coffee bar. Once they have their coffee and find a quiet table, Manik looks at Nandini and asks "What's on your mind? What's troubling you?".
She starts to tell Manik what happened yesterday and her conversation with his family. She explains the situation in detail and how it's been causing her stress and anxiety.
As Nandini finishes telling her story, Manik was surprised and happy to know that she had confided in him.He knew that it was a big step for her
Manik looked at Nandini with a smile and said "Nandini, there is no wrong in becoming a partner in our company business. In fact, I am really happy that you are willing to become a partner.
Nandini looked at Manik and said " But I have to be honest with you, I don't know anything about business, and I only suggested this deal to try and get your family to take the money you gave them back. My intentions were good, but I didn't anticipate the situation turning out like this."
"Don't worry Nandini, I will guide you to run the business. At least in that way, I will get a chance, indirectly, to help my family. Nandini don't say no" Manik reassured her that he will be there to support her in learning the business and that they will work together to make it a success and in this way they can help his family financially.
Nandini said to Manik "I need some time to think about it. This is a big decision and I want to be sure that I am ready for it. I appreciate your offer and support, but I need some time to weigh the pros and cons and consider all my options." Manik understood and respected Nandini's decision, he said "I understand, take all the time you need. I'll be here to support you no matter what you decide."
He replied "I'll be waiting for your call tonight to hear your decision. I have a feeling that the answer will be yes."
She asked him "How can you be so sure that the answer will be yes?"
He smiled and said "I can't be sure, but I have faith in you and I believe that you will make the right decision for yourself
Nandini felt reassured by Manik's words and promised to call him tonight with her decision.
