Vikrant's POV:

I looked at her and next second she hugged me tighty and started crying loudly...

Siya the strong woman she is!!! She broke down in my arms like a little child... I consoled her but it looks like this emotional trauma was something she was going through a long time...

"I dont trust anyone Vikrant... I donnnnt" saying she cried loudly...

I looked at her and made her sit on my chair and made her drink some water...

"Look Siya... I see a little sister in you... If I had a sister probably she would just be like you... I know... You havent told Samay about this..And I honestly dont know why...But you can consider me anything like Samay and tell me everything sweetheart...Do you believe in me?"

I asked...

She nodded and said ' I do...I do...That is why I reached you out for agreeing to work with Raghav's new company. And dad also trusts you...He told me that you are someone whom I can trust on.. But I refrained from involving you in this as this is my battle... The situation I am is quite dangerous and complicated... I dont know if you know I and Raghav are married however we both are'

"In a contract marriage of 12 months! I Know!!!" I told her and she was shocked..

'How do you???' she was at loss of words..

'Because I am Vikrant Chadda Siya... I have contacts too... The first thing when you asked me to accept Raghav's offer I started digging details about you both!!! And my contacts it is and I have it all... Twelve months of marriage and your 10 clauses too!!! ' I saw her mouth open widely

I continued... 'I know Abhinas Arora was behind the hotel stunt, that you both married to keep up the family's name and probably the contract too.. But I was shocked when I discovered you were going to plan a mall on the Sehgal Mansion land!!! That is it!!!

I knew there was something creepy here! Vishal Malhotra's daughter a whole owner of 3500 crores!!! A billionaire will run behind a mere 800 crore project? Huhh! Impossible! And working under pressure of that Arora whom Vishal uncle can sell and buy multiple times. That much money of Vishal uncle is involved in Arora's group.

So Sehgal India was a mere nothing infront of Arora's vast empire. You guys could easily take them out of this soup but all this happening around? You trigerring Raghav first and then supporting him staying in a hoodie. Why???'

To which she saw my face and said...

'Because I want Raghav to buy Sehgal Mansion from me at the earliest. Infact before we leave Bangalore. that was my only intension of coming to Bangalore. But looks like I am been monitored here too.. My every move my every step is monitored!!!'

"Who?? Who is monitoring you? Whom are you fearing? You are THE VISHAL MALHOTRA'S daughter!!! Whom are you fearing? You can just hire the best bodyguards and you will be safe!"I said

To which she lifted her head and  said "Well if thats what I dont want to do!! Stay safe!!!"

Whattt??? Is she mad?? She is unnecessarily risking her life?

"And may I know why such a great deed of risking you own life!' I asked curiously

'Because there is a pack of wolves who want me to do like that! ' she said

And I narrowed my eyebrows asking 'Wolves???'

She smiled in pain while tears poured from eyes...

'Yes...wolves... a hungry pack of wolves who want to destroy Sehgals!!!

Thats why I want Raghav to earn money!!! He has to earn it there is no other go!!! That too Soon!

I cant give it him the money although I have all the money in this world!!!

He cant take it as a loan from outside... He doesn't have anything to pledge upon!!! Who will give him a loan of 75 crore Rupees? Without any reason that too?

And the wolves eyeing Sehgal Mansion were desperate to take it away!

I was the shield standing in between them! They are extremely cunning Vikrant!

I had no other way to know their truth.. The only way was be one amongst them!

It all began with the news we got about Ram uncle's heart attack... Everyone thought it was a mere attack but no one knew it was a planned murder attempt!!!'

I froze at the word of murder attempt!!!

'Whattt???' i asked in shock

'Yes... Ram uncle is a type 2 diabetes patient and he was given a drug which worked like an overdose of his daily diabetic medicines. The plan was a heart failure but luckily uncle ended up with a heart attack. If he had silently gone to sleep then probably we would have lost Ram uncle by now!!!'

I was still in a state of shock ... This was a deeper pit than I thought of...

'Dad discovered about this and we got to know the person who planned this shit wanted to simply make sure Sehgal Mansion's CEO be dead!!! They wanted this to be done before Raghav acquires the throne of CEO position...

That is when dad started digging more details on this and we got to know the person who began this dirty game was none other than ...

Abhinas Arora !!!'

She said and honestly i wasnt shocked... I knew that fox was involved in this!!!

He can go to any extent knowing how much his father hated Ram Uncle.

She sobbed more and continued...

'That is when dad decided to play dirty business... we were anyways investing into Arora's business for last two years... Time to milk it!!! Dad joined hands with Arora saying he is interested in the Sehgal Mansion project and infact the mere mall which was a 400 crore project with involvement of my father Vishal Malhotra turned into an 800 crores worth. Big investor you see! And the money hungry puppy that Abhinas Arora was came licking my father's feet.

My dad tried to get more details about how is he planning to take over the mansion only to know Ram uncle had pledged the property too which means Arora's can auction the property.

Dad decided to take over Sehgal India even before Arora's would do it.

Infact marriage was also decided not for the hotel incident! My dad and my family trusts me completely. It was a mere way to have a good reason for merger! Infact Arora himself was shocked when dad informed of the merger but because the hotel incident was the brainchild of Arora himself he believed in dad that the merger was to save the prestige.

But then dad discovered one big reveal that indeed changed the entire game!

We could just get away from Arora and need not have pleased him or entertained him but when you know someone internally is a traitor how will you just let that be ignored Vikrant?"

She said and I was shocked...

"Traitor???" I asked her

 She stood and went near the glass window and said...

"Someone from the Sehgal family themself is the mastermind behind the entire plan!!!"

And that minute my mouth was wide open!!!

"Yes Vikrant... this is the reason dad asked me to not just marry Raghav and take over the CEO position but make sure Raghav or anyone else doesnt ascned the throne of a CEO.

Because who ever the person is thinks I am on their side. Although I am been constantly monitored. The traitor thinks I am on the side of building Mercury Mall over the Sehgal Mansion land and that is why I am still alive.

But I cant let my home.. My Raghav's home been sold na?

Initially I had convinced them about 12 months of time saying, I need that much to plan the mall where as I wanted Raghav that much time for gathering the money!

But now they have come back with a smarter plan to acquire it in mere 6 months! I told them about my marriage contract... not that they didnt know about it! They knew about it from Day1.

Infact They, My and Raghav's dad and Raghav were the only ones who knew about it!!!

But I highlighted the point which told that...

"Bride cannot throw out anyone from the Sehgal Mansion till the contract ends!!!"

Thats when the cunning wolf Abinas Arora told me... "What if Sehgals leave the house voluntarily? "

I was scared ...

He said "All I have to do is pick a loose nerve from that house... Kidnap them/Kill them/Hurt them and voluntarily ask Sehgals to leave the house...Or even better... how about Sehgal Mansion ending up in a sudden fire outbreak??? How is that???"

I was shocked...I was scared for my family...

I couldnt let anything happen to them. It was time to take high jump! Play trump cards!!!

But I was in complete soup situation. I was been followed everywhere... They eyed me everywhere...

I couldn't even discuss with my own father. Even in Sehgal Mansion I wasnt safe!!!

Everytime I was been monitored and hence my tongue was tied...I knew even in office there were cameras and I didnt know whom to trust and whom not to!!!

So the only way left now for me was... provoke Raghav!!!

So he officially buys the Sehgal Mansion from me before these wolves begin churning their brains"

I was actually absorbing every detail she told me... What a mess!!! I thought... This girl is brave!!!

Thats when she broke the big bomb!!!

"Thats why I didnt want Raghav to come to the party today and I used my marriage contract to blackmail him of traveling with him everywhere...

Because Arora called me today morning saying "Mrs Sehgal looks like Raghav is trying his best to buy the mansion back huhh!!! Make sure Vikrant doesnt extent him support he is your friend na??? Else the only way is a newly married Mrs Sehgal turning a widow within 2 months of time' and that literally choked me in fear.. Thats why I was scared of taking him out in public, worried on what he eats or drinks infact his every step. I made sure to taste everything to ensure his food is safe because whoever the plotter is wouldnt want me to die as I am their trump!

There are mics been fit in the rooms too thats why I cant even talk in the room. We are been monitored every now and then. '

I was looking at her face blankly...

"What are you planning to do next?' i asked...

"Simple!!! Raghav buys Sehgal Mansion and this time contract I made says smartly if anything happens to the owner of the property.... the property would be donated to an orphanage! With that Raghav will be safe!!! '

My mouth was wide open!!!
