Thank u soo much guys for the great response ❤️❤️❤️❤️
As the response was too good, here's a double update😇

Entering inside his room, vansh was mesmerised to see his sweetheart standing in a golden shimmery saree trying to hook the blouse but failing miserably

Taking slow timid step, he came behind her and held the blouse

Riddhima flinched at his touch

Nuzzling his face in her hair, he slowly whispered in her ear

V: relaxx

Her breaths accelerated as vansh hooked her blouse slowly taking his own time and then slowly brushed his fingers against her bare skin

V: you look beautiful mrs riddhima vansh rai singhania

R: thank u

Walking towards the vanity, riddhima took out her pendent and tried to tie it across her neck but failed

Vansh smiled and came behind her once again

V: main kar doon

R: main kar loon ge

V: okay

Slipping his hands in his pocket, vansh leaned against the vanity

With a mischievous smirk on his lips he saw her struggle badly

Finally giving up, riddhima huffed in annoyance

R: plz

Riddhima pouted while showing him the pendent

V: sure

Taking it from her hand, he made her wear it

V: its really beautiful
Where did you buy this from

R: its...umm...it was a gift

V: i must say that the person's choice is very nice

Vansh said while caressing the locket

R: i think we should go down
The wedding is about to start

Vansh smiled and forwarded his hand to her

Hesitating a bit, riddhima placed her hand over his

With their hands intertwined tightly , both reached the altar

As ishani and angre took the wedding vows
Riddhima clenched her mangalsutra tightly remembering her wedding with vansh

R(in mind): iam here for a mission
I should not forget that
But why do i feel good being near vansh
Why his closeness affects me
Why do i feel jealous seeing him with someone else
Am i falling in love???
Noo
No I can't
I can't

Vansh looked at riddhima whose face was displaying a myriad of emotions

VANSH RAI SINGHANIA was the man who had the power to read people's mind through their expressions but somehow he couldn't read her

SHE WAS A PUZZLE

A MAZE

NO MATTER HOW HARD HE TRIED, HE COULDN'T DEOCDE HER

SHE WAS PASSWORD PROTECTED JUST LIKE HIM

A lone tear escaped riddhima's eyes as the priest announced ishani and angre as husband and wife

Clenching her locket, riddhima whispered slowly

R: i wish you were here to see her getting married
I can literally imagine your excitement
You would have taken the whole house over your head to give her a dream wedding

Vansh was busy checking some last minute files when angre ran into the study perspiring badly with tears in his eyes

V: angre
What are u doing here
And why are you crying
Don't tell me ishani had beaten you or something

An: boss
Iam soo sorry

V: whats wrong angre

An: anupriya
She is kabir's biological mother

Vansh's face paled hearing him

An: here is her account details
She had been transferring money to him since soo long
Her phone records show they were in constant touch with eachother

V: are...are you sure angre
Maybe kabir had lied to her and she fell in his trap

An: DNA report prove their relation
She brought kabir as dev raj in the house
And her motive is to get all the property under her son's name
I even recovered the cctv footage of the day uma maam painting was burned
It was done by anupriya only

Vansh closed his eyes tightly trying to control his tears but they still managed to leak out

A: boss

V: angre, could it be possible that sh...she killed my mumma?

A: I....I don't know boss

Boss, are u okay???

V: leave me alone angre

A: boss plz

V: I SAID LEAVEEE

nodding his head, angre went from there

Picking up a wine bottle from his cupboard, vansh started drinking it vigorously

Hearing the knock on the door, riddhima opened it to see angre standing there

R: yes angre

A: bhabhi
Plz go to study
Boss needs you

Riddhima immediately panicked hearing him

R: what happened to MY vansh

She didn't even realise that she called him HERS

Running out the room she reached the study to see vansh sitting on the floor devastated

She immediately ran towards him and engulfed him into a tight hug

V: why me riddhima
Why me
Why everyone betrays me
First.....
And now anupriya
I loved and respected her like my own mother
But she never loved me
It was all a facade
Everything was fake

Riddhima kept caressing his hair

R: shh vansh
She doesn't deserve your tears
Don't waste them on a women like her

Vansh held her hand tightly

V( asking like a baby): riddhima
Tum mujhe kabhi chor kar toh nhi jao ge na
Hamesha mere pass raho ge na

Cupping his face, riddhima kissed his forehead tightly

R: haan vansh
Kahin chor kar nhi jaon ge tumhe

Pani laon tumhare liye??

She was about to get up but vansh held her tightly

V: tum mujhe dur kyun jaa rhe ho

R: vansh main yhi hoon
Bs paani lene jaa rhe the

V: ek favour kro ge mujh par riddhima
Mujhe aj ki raat akela mat chorna

Saying soo vansh kept his head in her lap and clenched her tightly as if afraid to loose her

Riddhima kept caressing his hair lovingly whole night

Whereas for the first time in his life, VANSH RAI SINGHANIA HAD A PEACEFUL SLEEP
AND WHY NOT
AFTERALL
HE WAS IN THE EMBRACE OF HIS SWEETHEART

Next morning:

Vansh opened his eyes only to see riddhima's angelic face

She was sleeping by leaning against the piano

Her cheeks contained tears marks

She was crying seeing him in pain

She felt his pain and stayed by him

How could he not fall more and more in love with this women

Picking her in his arms, vansh went to their room and tugged her in bed

Washing his face thoroughly, he came back to his study to see angre standing there

A: boss
Me and my men are ready
You just have to order
Kabir and anupriya would have the worst death possible

V: no angre
Death would be an easy punishment for them
I want them both to suffer
Suffer like hell
Do one thing
Send kabir out of the city for some emergency mission
But make sure he doesn't inform anupriya about all this
And call my lovely mother for ransom of 50 crores

A: on it boss

The door knocked and riddhima walked inside with two mugs of coffee

R: i was just leaving for work
So thought to make coffee for you both first

A: but bhabhi
Its 26 October , its a public holiday

R: 26 October

Riddhima's face paled hearing the date and the coffee tray slipped from her hand, making it fall on the floor with a thud

V: riddhima

Vansh looked on shocked he saw riddhima panicking

V: riddhima
Are you okay

Without answering him, riddhima ran back to her room

Closing the door, she fell down on her knees

She felt as if she was choking

She couldn't breath even a bit

R: 26 October
26 October
26 October
That inauspicious day
26 October

Vansh entered inside the room and was shocked to see riddhima's condition

He immediately rushed towards her and cupped her face in his large hands

V: riddhima
Sweetheart
Listen to me
Everything is okay
Iam here with you
Close your eyes

Riddhima closed her eyes

V: good
Now take deep breaths

Riddhima did as he said

V: yes just like that
Breathe in
Breathe out

Riddhima felt her mind relax a bit

V: good very good

Pouring some water in glass, he made her drink it
While he kept caressing her back

V: JANTA HOON BHAROSA KEH KAR NAHI DILAYA JAA SAKTA
BAS ITNA KEH RAHA HOON
AGAR MAIN TUMHARE SATH HOON
TOH KOI PROBLEM TUMHE CHU TOH KYA
TUMHARE AS PASS TAK NAHI AE GE

riddhima eyes got misted with tears hearing his promise

She could feel the sincerity in his words

Picking her up, vansh made her lye on the bed and settled himself beside her

He kept whispering soothing words into her ear while massaging her scalp ultimately putting her to sleep

V: 26 October
Why did riddhima start panicking hearing today's date
What is this mystery???

It was late at night when riddhima sleep broke

She opened her eyes and was shocked too see herself sleeping on top of vansh

She immediately jerked away from him as if stung

Getting off the bed, she immediately rushed to the bathroom

Standing infront of the mirror, She looked at her reflection

Her hairline filled with sindoor

Her neck adorned with mangalsutra

Her finger adorned with vr ring

R: NO
NOO
NOOOO

WHAT AM I DOING

IAM HERE ON A MISSION

HOW DID I FORGET THAT

IAM NOT SUPPOSED TO GET ATTRACTED TOWARDS VANSH

IAM NOT SUPPOSED TO FEEL HIS PAIN

IAM NOT SUPPOSED TO SHOW HIM MY VULNERABLE SIDE

IAM NOT SUPPOSED TO RECIPROCATE HIS FEELINGS

I CANTTT

I BLOODY CANTT

saying soo she aggressively started rubbing her sindoor off her hairline

Clenching her mangalsutra, she pulled it harshly and threw it at the counter

Taking out the vr ring, she aggressively threw it in away

R: IAM NOT RIDDHIMA VANSH RAI SINGHANIA
IAM RIDDHIMA
AND IAM HERE FOR ONE PURPOSE ONLY

opening the shower, she stood under it and tried to relax her mind but it didn't help at all

Stripping her dress away, she wore a black bralette  with a jacket and pants

Taking out her phone, she immediately texted sara

R: Is everything ready??

S: yes

Walking out of the washroom, her eye fell on vansh who was sleeping peacefully

For a second her eyes watered
She felt her resolve breaking
But the next second her eyes became blank remembering her motive

Opening the door, she moved out

Hearing footsteps, she immediately hid inside the adjacent room and peeked out

It was anupriya,

She was sneaking out of the mansion

Once she was sure that anupriya had left, she came out

Pulling her phone out of her pocket, she turned on the flash light and marched towards the study

R: i have to find the key to THAT room

She clenched her forehead tightly seeing a number of keys hanging on the key stand but none was the one that she needed

R: DAMN IT

Not finding it she opened the drawer
And her eye fell on a red velvet box

Opening it she saw a key with a promise sign key chain

A beautiful smile appeared on her lips as she caressed the key chain lovingly

She was about to walk out of the study when her foot stumbled due to the dark and the key  fell down

R: SHITT

Bending down, she started searching for it maniacally

A wave of relief washed over her as she found it under the table

Rushing out of the study, she went towards the lift and entered inside

Removing the locket from her neck, she scanned it on the screen and a 4th floor option appeared on the lift

Clicking it, she waited to reach her destination

As soon as the lift door opened, she ran towards a specific room and tried inserting the key but failed

R: relax riddhima
You can do it

She was about to try again but her phone rang

R: yes sara

S: riddhima hurry up
You have only 15 minutes

R: what??
Why

S: vr mansion's security system is very top notch
It took me 2 months to hack it and that too for only 30 minutes
Out of which 15 minutes are already gone
After the remaining 15 minutes would be over, all the cctv cameras would again be activated and you will be captured in them
And there would be no way to delete the footage

( for all those who would think how did anupriya's footage of painting burning got deleted, she had been living inside vr mansion and knew everything
So it was easy for her to delete the footage)

R: okayy

Inserting the key again, riddhima finally managed to open the door

As she stepped inside a sudden numbness ran across her body feeling the coldness of the room

R: you have to stay strong riddhima

Moving inside, she turned on the light to see everything covered in dust

Her hand slowly caressed the furniture and decorations that adorned the room

R: this room
It has your essence
I can feel you even in your absence

Taking deep breath she moved steadily and tried to search for some clues

10 minutes went by but she found nothing

Suddenly her eye fell on some red scratches on the marble

Sitting down on the floor, she scratched it with her finger and smelled it

Her eyes widened in shock

It was dried blood

R: BLOOD

seemed like someone had tried their best to clean it

S: riddhima leave from there
You have only 5 minutes
Riddhima
Are u listening to me
Riddhimaaaaa

Riddhima jerked out of her thoughts hearing sara's voice

Turning off the lights, she locked the room and rushed towards the lift

Keeping the key back, she entered inside the room just in time before the hacking system disconnected

S: good
You reached your room just in time before the cctv cameras started

R: how come everyone was sleeping like a log
I know vansh
He is a very light sleeper

S: it's because of anupriya

R: what??

S: yes
My men told me that she had bought sleeping pills this morning from the chemist shop
And she was seen sneaking out of the house to meet kabir
So it's possible she gave those sleeping pills to everyone in food or something

R: vansh knows her reality
He would never eat anything from her hand

Suddenly it struck riddhima

R: she must have mixed it in the prasad
Dadi goes to temple every friday
And apparently anupriya sneak out of the house on friday too
That bitch
She drugs the prasad

S: well
It did good to us

R: yaa
I'll talk to later
Bye

S: bye

Changing her clothes, riddhima laid down on the bed but her mind kept wondering back to the dried blood on the floor

So guys,

What do u think

What is the mission riddhima is soo keen about

And whose room was it which riddhima visited

And there was blood there

What is this mystery
