"what?" Arnav jumped from his chair.
"Yes nannav..akash's death wasn't an accident.." nk said.
Arnav was sitting in his cabin when suddenly nk entered and said about the accident .He was literally shocked with what he heard.
"The brakes were failed...Actually it was intentionally failed...And the car went out of control and dashed the truck.." nk continued .
Arnav slammed back on the chair.
"My car brakes failed...Means it was a trap for me..But.. Unfortunately akash fell in it..." Arnav chocked with guilt filled voice.
"Who's behind all this?" Arnav asked turning his guilt into anger raged tone.
"Shyam...." Nk replied.
Arnav fisted his hands in anger and said,"i won't leave him for hurting my family..." And he banged his hands on table.

....

"Payu bhabi... khush bhabhi..It's juice time..." Jiya came with 2 glass of juice.
Payal and khushi was sitting with nani and mamaji.. mamaji came back from US , unfortunately he was not able to attend any of the funeral rites of his son, arnav and nk did the final rites of akash..now he's there in mumbai to look after the ladies...Nani has become a little bit weak after akash death,but still doing fine.... khushi was in her last few days of pregnancy...She tried her best to get back her jeeji normal from the trauma of akash death...And saying about jiya..She  always  supported and loved every family members and took care of payal and khushi during these days...Then coming to payal.. She's in her 2th month pregnancy..She looks so pale ..Her eyes with dark circles indicating the sleepless nights thinking about her husband and hours of cry...But she's happy as there is everyone to suport her... She's happy of becoming a mother...Still she feels a void inside..Missing her husband .. Especially in days of pregnancy where every women craves for her husband's immense care and love.

Payal and khushi gave a smile to jiya when she forwarded the juice towards them.
"Now drink like good babies..." Jiya commented and both her bhabhis took the juice.
Nani and mamaji watched them with a smile.
Suddenly a door bell interrupted them.
"Let me go and check.." jiya said and moved to open the door.
"Aap?" Jiya asked when she saw the person at the door step.
"Hello mrs jiya nandkishore singh raizada..." The person said and moved inside excusing himself from jiya.
Jiya stayed there confused as the person walked in without even asking for a permission.
Everyone inside gasped when they saw the man in front of them.khushi touched her belly protectively.

"Shyam..." All said in unison.now jiya knew whom he was.
"Arrey naniji..Don't u bless ur damadji..." Shyam said in a mocking tone bending down to take blessings.
Shyam:how r u all?I missed u guys... Especially u.. khushiji..(he said turning to khushi).I'm really feeling sad for u khushiji...Ur arnavji's death must have shaken u so badly..(duffer shyam didn't knew that it was akash who died in accident😂😂)
Everyone looked him suspiciously when he said about death.payal clutched her pallu remembering akash.

Shyam continued:don't worry khushiji..I'm there for u..And what about ur baby?(he pointed her belly)

Mamaji:shyam...Stop ur nonsense and get out from here.
Mamaji was a bit furious this time.
Shyam:sure mamaji...I'll go..But khushiji too will be coming with me..
Mamaji:stop ur nonsense..And leave from here.
Shyam: mamaji..Why unnecessaryly raising ur BP?Just calm down..I'll take care of khushi..In fact now she's a widow...So I'll marry her and give her a life...
Khushi (shocked): what the hell are u saying shyam?
Shyam: khushiji...Now there's no one to help u..And nobody will stop me from getting u...

"In ur dreams shyam manohar jha...Her husband is still alive here..." All heard a voice ..Shyam turned to look back and was shocked to see arnav and nk standing there..

"Arnav...U r alive?" Shyam asked in horror.
"Yes...What did u think shyam..That I'll go so soon..Never ...I'll die only after killing u.." arnav said gritting his teeth.
Arnav marched towards shyam and clutched his colors..
"How dare u kill akash?" Arnav roared while shyam chocked to take breath.
Everyone stood there shocked.nk pulled arnav from shyam.
"Killed akash?" It was payal who asked.
Arnav:haa payal...He failed the brakes of my car.it was a trap for me.he thought that after my death he'll get successful in getting khushi and our properties..After the accident he thought that it was me who died.

Shyam was all confused and turned his head  in frustration that's when he saw  photo of akash hanging on the walls with garland..Now he joined all the dots...Now our idiot dumbo duffer shyam knew it was akash who died instead of arnav.

shyam started to laugh like a maniac..
All stared at him with disgust.
Shyam:yes.. it was a trap for arnav..But dont know from where that idiot akash came in between all these.if he didn't come in between all these i would have been successful with my plans ..But still ..Don't worry..I ll get successful with my plans..I'm not gonna back off...
Saying so shyam pulled khushi towards him and kept her on gunpoint.
"Leave her..." Arnav tried to reach him.
"Stop there arnav..Or else I'll kill her.." shyam tightened his grip around her neck... khushi was struggling to get out of his clutches..
"Arnavji.." khushi cried...
Everyone was standing there in horror not knowing what to do..
"""Aaaaahhh"".....Everyone got startled with the loud cry of shyam..Someone hit his head from behind.... khushi pushed him at the very moment and rushed towards arnav.
