"Why did Siddharth say this?" Shreya was thinking about the same thing all day long.

When she returned home, she saw Siddharth happily playing with Nidhi.

Siddharth said,"Did you go to Nidhi's daycare today?"

"Yes," she replied.

"I heard about Sohel."

"Who told you?"

"Maya obviously."

"You and Maya are close."

"Yes. We are. We are kind of in the same page. Both are married to people who don't love us." He said in a taunting manner

Shreya observed something. Siddharth's tshirt was a bit messy so she could see some part of his back.

"Is that a tattoo? ..."Shreya thought.

Siddharth caught her staring and quickly fixed his t-shirt.

Shreya asked,"Did you get a tattoo?"

"No...no..I did not. Why?" Siddharth replied. He was clearly nervous.

"I think I saw.."

He didn't let Shreya finish her sentence. Rather, he gave his daughter a quick hug,"Nidhi, go inside please."

Nidhi went inside.

Siddharth stood and looked at her. He said in a serious tone,"Shreya, we need to talk."

She was shocked to hear that,"What?"

He picked the file from the table and handed it to her.

"Take these papers. I have signed."

"What is this?"

"Divorce papers."

"I know these are divorce papers. But why?"

"Why? Are you kidding me right now? Come on, shreya! You love Daya, right?"
Siddharth almost shouted.

"No, I...." . Shreya tried to defend herself.

Being frustrated, he ran his fingers through his hair,"I have had enough. I tried everything for you. We also have a child but you still love Daya. I cant do this anymore."

He sat down and said slowly,"I really can't do this anymore. I am tried of being the only one involved in this relationship."

A drop of tear fell from Shreya's eyes,"What about Nidhi?"

" I don't know.... If you don't want her, I will keep her to myself. I love her, she's my daughter. But you are her mother too, we can have share custody or something. "

"I don't have any kind of relationship with Daya sir. I have been with you all this time"

He slammed the table,"What are you trying to do? Acting like a great person or something? If you had told me before the wedding, I would have done something. But, now you told me the day after Nidhi was born that you loved Daya!"

Shreya stayed silent.

He was on the verge of tears,"I was happy that our child was born but at that moment you confessed you loved Daya. How many times have you called me Daya, Shreya? I will tell you at least 100 times. I am fed up. I cant..."

"Please, listen to me , Da- I mean Siddharth I....". Shreya mentally cursed herself. She was about to call him Daya again.

Siddharth was hurt. She almost called him Daya again.

"See, you were about to call me Daya again. "

Nidhi slowly opened her room's door.

She said,"Dad... are you crying? Did mom make you cry?"

He quickly wiped his tears,"No,dear. Mom and Dad are just talking about old things. These are happy tears,princess."

Shreya said,"Go back to your room, dear. We are coming."

However,Siddharth never went back to the room. He slept in the couch that day. In the middle of the night, Nidhi joined him too.

Days went by, the search of Clover's identity continued and Shreya's married life was a mess.

Siddharth was hundred percent sure about his divorce. Nowadays, he gave Nidhi some signs too. Nidhi was now spending more time with Shreya because Siddharth told her to.

Kavin and Purvi grew closerthey went to drink coffer together and often had lunch. Moreover,Dushyant-Ishita's closeness was also increasing. Ishita even met Kunti and helped her in her cooking.

Clover,on the other hand, kept helping CID indirectly in their cases.

CID knew that there were three main leaders of Clover- Shadow, Hunter and Phantom. These three were the ringleaders.

Daya and Abhijeet,on the other hand, found Aishwarya a force to be reckon with. Her network was really strong. So,whenever they needed inside information Aishwarya would help them.

Sree would help them in tech related stuff. Aishwarya and Sree both became an unofficial part of the team.

Everything was running smoothly.

But ,then something happened.

Famous lawyer, Prateek died in a plane crash.

Both Abhijeet and Daya instantly thought about Aishwarya and Sree. They knew that Prateek was precious to them.

But, The most important part was-

Intelligence has informed that Prateek was the founder of the notorious group, Clover. However, due to power and succession issues, it is being speculated that Prateek was killed by the Clover members.

Abhijeet thought of Aishwarya as his sister. He got worried about her. She would be devastated hearing this.

ACP Pradyuman got information from the headquarters that they had caught a small fry. Now it was time to ask him questions.
