Ali: are waah aaj to bohot Accha din hai tum log baitho mein khaana bhejhta hu!
Ali left and messaged Avani

Ananya: mrs .khanna mujhe ye presentation par kaam karna hai but yaha I can't concentrate so give me my space and aaj ye presentation complete ho Jayega

ananya: mujhe meri duty pata hai so it's ok and Maine pehle hi Bola tha mera kaam Karne Ka tareeka alag hai!

Avani left to her apt and she also knew that Amruta is tapping her and so she had all the documents on ananya's name

sun: maam set up ho gaya hai!

Avani: good! Prakash khanna Ka koi info!?

sun: nhi!

Avani: kareena ke papa Ka !

sun: haa vo abhi India Kisi kaam se aane wale hai!

Neil: DD ! ab bas Amruta ko koi bhi nhi bacha sakega! DD sun ne me aaya hai use koi heir chahiye for business koi Mila!?

DD: nhi but shayad sab ko lagta hai koi ananya Karke hai use hi vo banade!

Neil: again ye ananya..! ek vo Avani hai aur dusri ye ananya dono Mera plan hamesha bigad deti hai. but trust me is baar Amruta ko koi nhi bacha payega,na koi kanoon aur na hi baghwaan Uske liye mujhe use marna bhi padega na ..

DD: par tu ek khooni nhi hai Neill.. Tu aisa nhi karega!

Neil: haa ! mein khooni nhi hu par Amruta ke liye vo bhi ban jaunga tu jaanta nhi hai kitni nafrat hai us se mujhe!

DD knew it's useless to make him understand so they went on with their plan and left soon after which Ali also removed microphone.

here Avani was still as if someone has stabbed her heart hard and breathing was heavy she was all the more determined to help Neil and not let an innocent Neil to die in revenge game of his past and let him be criminal

Avani- sun!! kal mujhe tumhari help lagegi and also harleen aunty ki taki mein unke cabin ki talaashi le saku,pata nhi kyu par uske cabin mein shayad Kuch hai!

sun: ok maam ho jayega!
Avani left to meet amruta

Amruta: aao ananya! I hope tumhari presentation ho gayi hai!(smirk)

Avani/ananya: haa! Maine kaha tha ki kaam mujhe mere tareke se karna pasand hai and haa aayinda se agar Kuch jaanna ho to mujhse directly puch lena vo kya hai mujhe paheredaar pasand nhi hai!!

Amruta:(astonished) tumhe kaise pata ki vo...

ananya : jab mujhe ye pata hai Amruta khanna ko kis cheez se threat hai ..I mean aapki secret jo mein Ashish Mehta ko deti but phir Maine man badal Diya to phir mujhe aapki fithrat bhi ache se pata hoga!

Amruta: chalo thik hai! directly puch leti hu... ye batao tumhara aur officer sunheri ka kya rishta hai...ya phir yu kahu ki vo tumhare ghar kya kar rahi thi!?

ananya (shocked but still confident) : vo Kuch aapke baare me mujhse puchna chahte the! shayad ashish mehta ne unhe bataya ki aapne mujhe dhamka kar apni company me rakha hai!
chaliye is baat par mein bhi aapse ek sawaal Karti hu..
aapka beta yani Prakash khanna kaha hai..!? I mean jab uski company itne loss me hai , instability crisis aise time par bhi vo gayab hai!? Kahi aapko phasa kar bhaag to nhi gaye na!?(smiling sarcastic)

Amruta: impressive....! lagta hai bohot acche se jaanti ho mujhe par ek baat batau aag se dur rehte hai aksar khelte khelte khud hi jal jaate hai!

ananya: lagta hai jawaab nhi hai aur haa mujhe ab dar nhi lagta kyunki aag se khelna Mera sawk ban gaya hai aur jalna to achievement hai mere liye!

Amruta:(irritated) I guess aaj ke liye itna hi kal important day hai so leave.

ananya: haa jaa rhi hu par is baar kisiko mat bhejna varna mujhse vo nhi bechenge and aap bhi(warning)

Amruta (to herself) : kyu par tum par bharosa nhi ho rha hai aur tum jarurat se jyaada jaanti ho kahin mujhe phir se Holi na khelni pade  ....bachi door rehna...
