~~~ Shivaay's POV~~~

I woke up in the morning. Well I slept just few hours ago but some noises disturbed me. Finding them I walked to the other side of bed to see my Annie sitting on the floor and enjoying her cold Malai Kofta.

"You... What are you doing Anika?" I asked sitting beside her and she passes me a sheepish smile.

"I was hungry so thought to eat it." She replied and I smiled.

"Atleast heat it up?" I asked trying to get the bowl but she pulled it back.

"No! I'm loving it like this. Okay?" She glared me and I nodding walked to the washroom leaving her to enjoy her food.

It's her stubborn hormones!

Taking a quick shower I came out covering myself with the towel and she was still enjoying her food.

Such a foodie!

She didn't even realised that I was literally standing naked in front of her.😒

Taking my clothes I returned to the bathroom and came out once I was ready.

"Anika... You had your breakfast! So now Join me in the garden after getting freshen up. Okay?" I said and she nodded walking to washroom.

Definitely some dangerous prank is going on in her mind. She obeying me like this! Hmm...

I thinking walked down and our breakfast ready already. Sending back her breakfast I took mine and walked out in the garden.

Khanna was having tea there.

"Hey." I greeted and sat on the chair.

"Have you arranged the venue? I mean press conference is today only." I asked and he nodded.

Such bossy styles he have.

I finished my breakfast and called mishra to tell him about the conference.

I was talking with Mishra when Anika arrived.

"Mishra be there on time. Get all the proofs you've." I dropped the call and looked at anika who was checking me out with suspicious eyes.

"You're planning something shivaay." She raised her brows and crossed her arms.

"No. Just come and sit here." I made her sit beside me.

"Have you passed their investment request?" She asked me and I looked away.

"Anika. What if they are sent behind bars. Will you be still scared?" I asked her and she looked down in deep thoughts.

"Annie..." I shook her and she looked at me...

"They know my weaknesses. They won't let me send them behind bars." She reasoned.

"I'm your support. They can't use your weaknesses." I assured her.

"My family is still my weakness." She jerked off the tear drops from her lashes.

"Your real ones?" I asked and she nodded.

"I know they're not good parents but are my parents. I won't be able to see them dying. I just can't ..." She finished with a heavy voice and I patted her shoulder.

"I'll make sure they're safe. Will you now help us in sending them behind the bars?" I asked and she nodded with thoughts going on in her mind.

"Okay. Then let's go. We've a conference to attend." I hugged her and she smiled.

After two hours we were sitting in the venue filled with media and every news portals. It was the biggest announcement day. I never wanted to humiliate someone like this but only media can help me in getting them nabbed. Police here will not help me till I make it a big issue. It's also very much important for others to know what such Big named people really are. I come along. Even I wasn't good but I never killed someone. And will NEVER do that.

"Shivaay..." I came out of thoughts as Anika called me.

"Okay." I passed her a smile and started to speak but voice, My voice was stuck in the throat only.

"Shivaay... Are you sure you want to do this.?" She asked me clutching my hand.

"Yes, It's the only way out Anika." I passed a smile to her and looked straight at the media.

"Hello everyone." I clearing my throat spoke in the mic.

"Today its going to be a biggest day for everyone here. You'll be getting so much spicy news today. So... You can ask me whatever you want to but... But, You will not cross your limits otherwise I'll walkout without telling anything. Just telling...!" I cleared out to them so they don't make it impossible for us to tell them anything.

"Okay. So, what's this press conference about?" One of the reporter asked.

"Its about naina's death. It's about me and anika. Our marriage." I held Annie's hand and she smiled.

"So... Are you going to send Mrs Oberoi to jail? After all she was the one who killed naina. We've little information of this matter." other reporter asked.

"Yes, Culprit will be jailed today, but she's not the culprit. She's the reason real culprits will get behind the bar." I stated. "Before you ask something more I would like to tell you guys something. The core reason of this conference. It's about anika being not a raichand." I told them and there were gossiping sounds in the hall.

"Anika not a raichand? Is she adopted or is she..." The repoter asked and paused at the end.

"Yes. She's probably adopted to hide the truth. Hide the crimes of Real anika raichand." I looked at anika and squezzed her hand as she shivered.

"So you mean replacing kind of thing?" Well, this media is very much intelligent you don't have to tell things in details sometimes they understand it very easily.

"Yes, She was the daughter of their driver. As you've all the information, I know. So, Yes, Anika raichand was the murderer. She pushed our sister in the pool." I paused as the matter of naina came.

"Its okay shivaay. Be strong" Anika whispered in my ear placing her hand on my shoulder.

"Her dad was also there but he didn't saved her. They both were the reason behind her death. As Anika real anika is no more so her parents will be facing the jail." I announced.

"And about replacing matter?" Asked the reporter.

"O well, This is the real reason this has been delayed till this date. She..." I placed my hand on my Annie's shoulder.

"She was sold to raichand's by her parents. You all very well know money can destroy anything so her family gave her away to them as they needed money. After killing naina, Anika ran away and her parents wanted to stay out of this mess so they adopted her mean Koel the daughter of driver and named her anika. They injected her to make her sleep. The coma which they showed the police to escape the jail. In this way they got saved from jail and their name fame stayed intact. Koel has been through hell all thanks to Raichands. As you all know that I had my very own reasons to take revenge from the Anika and her family. So, I married her. I didn't know this whole story at that time and I have regret of marrying her against her wish as she just suffered more because of all this. But I don't regret marrying her as she is the most precious gem of god and I'm very grateful to have her as my wife. All this is told to you guys so the real face of raichands could come in front of you. I could've just got them arrest but I wanted to reveal their dirty secrets so that no other rich figs do this." I sighed completing and a smile of relaxation appears on her face seeing which my lips curves up automatically.

"But why you think we will believe on what you're saying? I mean this whole incident and all looks so filmy. Seems like a cooked up story to frame Raichands." One reporter asked and I smiled.

"Well, I expected this question. Actually I don't know why people refuse to believe on something saying it looks filmy story and blah. Guys, Just tell me one thing! Who are behind the film making? Human? Right! Then why this cannot happen in real life after all what you've to do is use your cunning brain and destroy someone in reality and not in imagination. This whole matter is what has happened with her and me. I'm not a victim though but she is. Why would she lie when all she is getting is pain? Some logical peoples are required to understand this. We've proofs to prove that she's not real Anika as real one died. For that we will be conducting a test, DNA test. For now they'll be going to jail as I don't want to risk her life." I stated and the gossiping starts again.

"Mr Oberoi. Did you come to India just to get them arrested? Or their is some other reasons?"

"O! I forgot to tell. I've to deal with few bussiness issues here. I didn't wanted to leave my love alone there as she needs me all the time. We can't stay away for long so that's why we both shifted here for few months after that we'll be travelling back." I answered hiding her health issues as enemies are there along with friends.

"But we heard that you are here because of your wife's health problems." One reporter asked and I looked at him suspiciously.

"I never said anything like that. Who paid you to ask this question? Definitely you've sold yourself." I wanted to say this and rip him apart but controlled myself.

"Absolutely not. She's perfectly fine and healthy. You've been given the wrong information." I stood up.

"For now, It's over. You can go and cover the arrest of raichands." I smiled and held Anika.

We both walked out me holding her by her shoulders as she was shivering with fear. She wasn't able to calm down herself though she was convinced that we are now safe.

"Shivaay. I don't trust them. They will harm us." She looked into my eyes and I smiled cupping her face.

"No. They can't. Police is at their place and we will see their arrest on all the channels. Just get in the car." I made her sit and walked to the driver seat.

Buckling her belt and mine I started the engine when their came the knock on the window.

"Don't open the window Anika." I stopped her and she shook her head.

"Shivaay. It's a begger, giving them money will not harm us." She smiled and rolled down the mirror.

While giving him the money she dropped few in her feet and she unbuckled her belt and bent little to pick them up.

I was about to tell her not to do this but the next moment my breathes stopped as I looked out of the window...
