It was the day before Purab and Haniska's wedding.  Everyone was at Veena's Mansion for the Haldi ceremony when Mukul and Thapki walked in.

"Wow!  So nice!"  stated Thapki.

 "Mukul!  What are you doing here?"  said  Anjali nervously

"Papa!"  said Haniska excitedly

"Don't!  Don't call me Papa!   When you have no values of relationships, then why call me Papa!"  stated Mukul

"Mukul, Beta.  What's going on?"  asked Dadi

"Nothing, Maji.  Just ending some relationships."  stated Mukul

"Mukul!"  yelled Anjali

"Oh wait!  I want to do this!"  stated Thapki   

Everyone looked confused.  Thapki didn't look upset, in actual, she looked happy.

"Oh, I forgot!  Purab, here you go!  As of now, there is no relationship  between us.   Any favors you had done for me and my family.   Balance is complete.  I owe you nothing.  This is 5 lakhs.   This should cover everything:  My mothers surgery, and for rent and food, for the days I had stayed here."  stated Thapki

"Where did you get all this money?"  asked Purab

"You have no right to ask me anything, but for old time sakes, I will say this.   I am the new voice for MCD Records.     So sorry Haniska, I won't be able to sing for you now.  But it shouldn't matter anyway, you are getting married so no need for your fake career!"

"What!"  stated Purab

"So as I was saying.   I owe you nothing.  And you, my sister, Papa has your gift"  stated Thapki

"Papa what's going on?"  asked Haniska

"Well, Hansika, since you and your mother, love to play games, I have decided that I am done.  So as of today, I have divorced your mother and disowned you.    If you can play games with your sisters life,  don't think to lie to me.  The reason you came into Veena Mansion was to take her place.  Well, you have done it, so now she will take your place."  stated Mukul

"Papa!"  "Mukul!"  yelled Haniska and Anjali.

"You can't do this!"  yelled Anjali

"It's already done.    You can stay here with your daughter.    You helped your daughter in her schemes, now I will help my other daughter.  I had blackmailed her so she would sing for Haniska, now I have released her from her promise.  And I also, got her a new start!"  said Mukul

"Thank you for your time!   I hope to never see you people again.   And Anjali Auntie, your belongings should be arriving shortly."  stated Thapki as she left the house.

"What have we done?  cried Anjali

"Mom, what happened here"  cried Haniska

"This is all your fault Haniska!"  yelled Anjali "You were stubborn about Purab.  You wanted Purab.  Now you got him.  But I lost everything.  All your tricks lost me my life.  Your dad left me!"  cried Anjali

"So all this was your doing?"  yelled Purab

Haniska looked scared nodded.

"There will be no wedding."  stated Purab

"Purab"  

"Enough!  And you better tell me everything, because if I find out from someone else, there will be no place for you to hide.  And trust me, now that you don't have your dad's support, where will you go"  yelled Purab.

Finally, Haniska told the truth.  From before the wedding to Sargum's accident.   Purab fell down in shock.  Thapki was telling the truth the whole time.    He didn't believe her.  Veena went to pull him up, and he shouted, "Don't!  Mom, this is your doing.  My Thapki hates me now.    I didn't trust her.   She will never forgive me!"  

"Mom, let's go home.  Try to convince Papa, all this is a misunderstanding.  We get Papa to forgive us."  cried Haniska, as they left Veena Mansion

"Dadi, I was a bad husband.  I trusted the wrong person.  I tried to be a good brother and I ended up being a horrible husband!  She hates me, she doesn't want to see me.   She gave me money, like she was returning a loan.  She turned us into strangers."   cried Purab.

"Purab, shanti.  Thapki is angry.   She loves you.  She will be back."   said Dadi

"No she won't.  She doesn't want to see us"   cried Purab

"Veena, this is all your fault"  yelled Dadi.

"All this is your fault!"  stated Vinod

"Vinod, take Purab to his room." said Dadi as she left the room.

Soon everyone left, and Veena was left alone.   Veena tried calling Thapki but she wasn't picking up her calls.   Then she called Jaya.  Jaya had answered.  

"Jaya, where is Thapki"  asked Veena

"She is with her father.    She will be staying with her father, while she builds her career."  stated Jaya coolly

"I am so sorry.   Please forgive me.  I misunderstood Thapki.  I have made a mistake."  stated Veena

"What is done is done.  We can't change it now.  Only thing we can do it go forward.   I thought their marriage would last, but it didn't.   I can only pray to Mata Rani that she can guide Thapki the right way."  Jaya said as she hung up the phone.

"What can I do now"  said Veena

"Nothing!"  said Vinod  "You are the cause of all of this!  You couldn't see past your hatred.  Why?  All because Thapki had a stammer.    But she made Purab happy.  I saw it, Ma saw it.  But you, Purab's mother couldn't see past your ego.   Was your ego worth Purab's tears.    Thapki was slowly fixing our family but it took you just seconds to destroy it!   Our daughter is in the hospital, yet you were trying to get Purab married.   You didn't care that our daughter was in the hospital or the Purab was suffering.  All that matters was that you got rid of Thapki.    Well, you won!   At what price?  Your daughters suffering.  Your sons heartbreak.    And even the company will suffer since Thapki isn't singing for it.   You thought that Thapki was going to take your son away from you, but you did that all on your own!"  

"I know!  I am sorry.  I made a mistake!"  cried Veena as Vinod left the room

The next morning, Purab was in a better mood.  Angry but not defeated.   He was on the phone non-stop.   All he did was give out orders.  Finally, hours later, there was a smile on his face.  Vinod looked at Purab and wondered what was going on.

"Purab-"  asked Vinod

"Papa.   I figured it out.   I got figured out a way to get back Thapki."  smiled Purab.

"How?"  asked Vinod

"I bought MCD Records.   Thapki is under contract with MCD Records, and now we own it.  She can't leave without breaking the contract."  stated Purab smiling.
