SUBSTITUTE BRIDE CHAPTER 69 UPDATED ON WEBSITE.

Pankhuri is driving fast, and she is completely lost in old memories. She is not able to understand why all this is happening to her. She reaches the hospital as soon as possible and stands in front of her mother, who was calling her repeatedly. Upon seeing her daughter there, Pooja immediately stands in front of her and expresses her anger.

"I don't understand anything you kids say. What do you want? You both have become so careless. I have been trying to talk to Pravesh since morning. He is busy somewhere, and you are here but not here. What is happening after all?… Your father is in the hospital because of your decision, and you both totally forgot us."

"Pravesh bhaiya urgently needs to travel to Paris for an exclusive, confidential project. Due to this, he will be unable to contact or disclose any information. It is crucial for us to fulfill large contracts at this time."

Upon hearing this, she immediately smiles, thanks God with folded hands, hugs her daughter, and shares the news with her.

"I knew that this boy would understand his responsibilities very well someday; your father has never given him any importance. That is why he gets a little angry; otherwise, you also know very well that your brother is no less intelligent than you.”

Pankhuri just smiles and nods her head; she just wants to be with her father at this time; that is why she tells her mother.

"You go home; you have been feeling very upset the whole day, and you do not need to be scared. There is no problem; everything will be fine; we will both make everything fine together. If your brother is not here, it is okay because he is also doing everything for our family.

"No, I will stay here; you go home. You were also feeling upset the whole day… I was so upset; that's why I scolded you. Did you eat something?"

She simply nods her head, while Pooja sits beside her and begins to explain.

"Everyone always misunderstands Pravesh. I don't know why your father treats him like a stepchild. My son is very nice. See, he is aware of his responsibilities. That is why he did not tell me anything after thinking about the project. While you know very well how much he loves me, he just keeps following me for everything."

Pankhuri's eyes fall on her mother, who is very worried for her son, and her words reflect her love for him so much that she just wants to cry loudly after hearing this and hug her mother and tell her how bad the condition in Pravesh is right now, but she cannot do that at all because she knows very well how much her mother loves Pravesh. She just shakes her head and sits there quietly. After some time, Pooja starts feeling sleepy, so she lies down on the sofa. Pankhuri's eyes are only on her father, who is still unconscious. She approaches him, sits down, and gently grasps his hand, pressing it between her palms and placing it on her cheek as she softly speaks to him.

"Give me courage, Papa; I still have to fight a lot."

She loses herself in very deep memories as she looks at her father.

6 YEARS AGO

RUDRANSH AND PANKHURI'S PAST STARTED FROM HERE.

Mangesh is very angry, and at this time he shouts very loudly in anger and says to Pravesh,.

"Do you have any idea how much loss I have suffered because of your stupidity? You thought that if you did all this to trouble them, they would get troubled. There is no one more foolish than you in this world. Shrivastav and Rajput Industries were doing this work by merging together, so in such a situation, Saraansh Thakur will not have to bear this loss alone, but we will also have to bear it. You cannot even imagine how much loss I have suffered because of you."

Pravesh stands up, filled with anger, and addresses his father.

“You want me to work under Saraansh, whom I hate. You constantly draw comparisons between me and that boy, a comparison I find offensive. Yes, I wanted to trouble him. It does not matter to me that our company has also suffered a loss because of this. What about the loss? There will be compensation for the loss. After all, why are you working so hard?”

Mangesh raises his hand on him in anger, but Puja immediately holds Mangesh's grip, and Pankhuri right away stands in front of him to save her brother. Pravesh is looking angrily at his father, then Pankhuri takes her brother away from there and starts explaining to him.

"Bhaiya, why do you always start fighting with Papa? You know that he only wants our good."

"You are my younger sister; you don't need to explain to me. Listen to me very carefully: Papa is going to give you this work now. I know that you are capable of doing every work, but you don't need to listen to anything from Saraansh Thakur; I hate that man. You are going to lead this project at my place tomorrow, so keep telling me what else he wants to do."

Pankhuri starts looking at her brother because this project is her father's dream, and he wanted to do this merger for a long time. He wanted to work with Adhyay Thakur at any cost, and this is happening after a long time. She had been hearing all these things for many years, and it had always been her dream to work with Adhyay Thakur. When she learned that because of her brother he was going to cancel this project, she was extremely sad. She was thrilled after hearing about this project because she was sure that someday she would get a chance to work with Adhyay Thakur. However, the current environment has completely shattered her happiness. She knows that her brother is completely wrong here, and her father was trying to make her understand the right thing, but as always, her brother got very angry, and he just tried to argue with his father. While explaining to her brother, she says.

"Bhaiya, why are you getting so angry? You are so intelligent; then why are you doing such a thing? You know very well how much difficulty Papa has had with everything, and when he has suffered so much loss, then he will get angry. You also try to understand that you did all this to harm Saraansh, but we have also suffered loss."

Pravesh calms down a bit on hearing his sister's soft voice, and sitting on the stairs, he starts looking at his father, who is walking to calm his anger, and Pooja is trying to calm him down by taking a glass of water. Pravesh looks at his sister and says to her, while spreading her hair on her forehead and smiling slightly,.

"I think you are not my younger sister but my grandmother. Whatever you say, I understand it very well. Whatever it is, you have been looking after this project since yesterday. I have nothing to do with it now, but keep telling me what is happening there. In addition, there's no need for me to interact with those individuals excessively, as I don't have a strong affinity for them."

Pankhuri is thrilled that her brother's anger has calmed down, so she smiles and nods her head.

The next day Pankhuri reaches the office with all her files and preparations and immediately tells her father.

"Papa, you did not need to come here specially to drop me off; you know that I know Saraansh."

I am aware that you are familiar with Saraansh, and I can assure you that he is a genuinely good boy. I would like you to learn the work very well under him; both his brothers, Abhiyank and Rudransh, have also started doing such a fantastic job while working with him that how much praise can I give to those boys?"

On hearing the names of both the boys, Pankhuri looks at her father very carefully and smiles lightly. She takes the file from her father and speaks to him.

"You go to your office and work well; you know very well that I am not going to have any problem here."

Mangesh smiles as he places his hand on his daughter's head, kisses his forehead, and speaks to him.

You know this project is going to be my last because I want to retire and hand over my company to you and your brother, but your brother forces me to rethink my decision by showing his failure every time, but looking at you, I am sure you will take this company to great heights, so I am not sad about my retirement, but with this merger I want to give you that position where I see myself."

"You do not need to be afraid at all; this is going to happen. Let me go now; it is important for me to go inside because they would be waiting for me, and till now I am only chatting with my father."

Both of them start laughing. After that, Mangesh leaves from there, and Pankhuri quickly comes towards the elevator and presses the floor mentioned by her father; while reading the file, she waits for the elevator to reach the right floor. Soon the door opens, and she slowly starts moving forward, looking at the floor carefully. Then suddenly a door opens, and a boy comes out quickly and collides with her. She immediately holds the file tightly to save her file from falling, and the next moment she realizes that the boy has held her very well in his strong arms to save both of them from falling down.

“Who has set up this poll here?"

She hears a very masculine voice right near her, due to which she looks at the man in surprise and immediately says.

"Hainnnn.”

Perhaps the man did not even know whom he had bumped into, due to which he started looking at her. Pankhuri's eyes kept looking at him only because, after seeing him, she did not feel like looking anywhere else. He smirks and looks at her properly and instantly says.

“You don’t need to worry; I know the best food from every region of the world, so I will make you fat by feeding you.”

Hearing the man's voice, Pankhuri immediately realizes that she was staring at him and also that the man had made fun of her thinness, which is why she right away speaks louder.

“Hmmmm…”

Upon hearing her voice again, he bursts into laughter, causing Saraansh to clear his throat loudly. In response, he rolls his eyes and looks at her with a sad face and turns to them with a strange face and reluctantly leaves her waist to gaze at her and speak to her.

“Hey beautiful, who are you…”

As soon as that boy gets separated from her, Pankhuri feels a different kind of emptiness due to which she does not like the fact that he has gotten separated from her. She begins to scrutinize him more intently, and as a result, he bends slightly towards her and confides in her.

"Am I handsome..."

"Very handsome..."

She instantly responded, and all three of them burst into laughter, capturing her attention. As soon as she sees Saraansh, she immediately comes forward and gives him a file and says,

“Hello Mr. Saraansh, I am Pankhuri Srivastav; my father, Mangesh Srivastav, asked me to meet you.”

“Hello, Pankhuri….”

As soon as he calls her by name, she turns to look at Rudransh; she looks at him innocently again and keeps staring at him, causing him to fix his gaze on her. It's then that he hears Abhiyank's voice loudly.

“Hello, miss. Srivastava... You know my brother, Saraansh. I am Abhiyank Thakur, and he is our younger brother, Rudransh Rathore…”

Pankhuri smiles slightly at Abhiyank and looks at Rudransh, who immediately extends his hand towards her and smilingly says to her,.

“I love meeting beautiful girls like you.”

"Rudra…"

Pankhuri was extending her hand to shake it to him when Rudraksh immediately pulled his hand back due to Saraansh’s hard voice, and Pankhuri looked at Rudransh, who was smilingly looking at Saraansh. His smile is not allowing Pankhuri to take her eyes off him. All three of them are engaged in a conversation, but Pankhuri's focus is solely on Rudransh, preventing her from hearing anything else around her. Suddenly, all three of them enter the room, and Pankhuri, feeling her heartbeat, places her hand on her chest.

“What happened to me suddenly, and what is there in it that I am reacting like this, love at first sight…?”

Pankhuri abruptly closes her eyes and shakes her head; the door opens again, and Rudraksh emerges and speaks to Pankhuri.

“You were left outside, but I am sorry for that. Now I am not going to leave you alone again at all; come inside with me.”

Pankhuri nods her head slightly after seeing him, and to divert her attention from him, she immediately walks straight, looking ahead. With a smile on his face, Rudransh slowly begins to follow her. He stands in front of her, leaning on the table, and speaks to her.

“Let's start a good, beautiful bond….”

After hearing his words, Pankhuri smiles slightly and looks at Saraansh and Abhiyank, who are also smiling lightly at Rudransh. She just maintained her smile and looked at him with unknown emotions because, for the first time in her life, she found someone whom her eyes wanted to look at regularly.
