Calling off the engagement
1063 Words
"Ouch, that hurts, but you deserve it Aunty." said Advaita, biting her lips to control her smile."
Advit also controlled his smile and gently whispered in Shivansh's ear, "Did you enjoy it? Well, I was not expecting this but Bhavishya Uncle did it right."
While grinding his teeth, Shivansh said, "It was good that her husband did this, otherwise I would have strangled this lady. If I told a real fact then it means that I am having an affair, what a poor mentality these people have. If Naksh had not shown his true face and the drugs incident had not happened, then poor Advaita would have had to face many things."
Namrata was shocked when Bhavishya slapped her. She was surprised because this was the first time that Bhavishya had raised his hand to her. Bhavishya had entered the room at the same time when Shivansh was defending Advaita but Namrata's back was towards the door, hence she did not see Bhavishya. Hearing Namrata's words, Bhavishya became angry and slapped Namrata without thinking.
Bhavishya said angrily, "You realize what you just said? Look at your son before you question someone else's daughter's character."
Namrata did not pay attention to what Bhavishya had said because she was still stuck on the fact that her husband had raised his hand at her. He slapped her just because of some words.
"Dad, how can you raise your hand on Mom?" asked Naksh."
Bhavishya glared at him and said, "It would be better if you didn't say anything in between. You haven't left me anywhere to show my face. What did I think of you and what did you turn out to be? I am ashamed to even call you my son, your actions are so bad and your mother is questioning Advaita's character instead of paying attention to your actions."
Hearing Bhavishya's words, everyone looked at each other in confusion. They didn't know what was going on.
Namrata cried and asked, "May I know why you raised your hand at me? What did our son do to make you so angry?"
Bhavishya took out his phone and handed it to Namrata.
He said, "Please take a moment to review the recent news regarding your son. It has been reported that, despite his commitment to one girl, he is also involved in a relationship with another. This news has already led to questions being raised about my reputation, less than an hour after it was made public. "
Shivansh took out his phone and asked Advit, "Do you know what Uncle is talking about?"
"I have no idea but let's see what news Uncle is talking about" replied Advit, shaking his head in no.
Anshika pulled out her phone and began checking the news. Meanwhile, Advaita watched everyone with a blank expression, unable to comprehend what was happening. She wondered who had leaked the news about Naksh so suddenly. There was no one in the room who could have done it, as everyone present had been equipped with clues at that time.
As soon as Advit saw the news, he said, "What the hell? Here my sister was calling for you to help her and there you were romancing your secretary in the hospital? And now you're coming here and brazenly lying about it?"
These were the pictures of the day when Naksh took Samriddhi to the hospital, leaving Advaita alone. It is not known who released the news that Naqsh was in the hospital with his secretary, leaving his fiancée in the arms of danger.
Both of them had gone to the gynecologist and it was speculated that Samriddhi was pregnant. In some pictures, both of them are seen kissing each other and Naksh's hand was on Samriddhi's belly.
Shivansh asked Namrata, "What are your thoughts on the news, Mrs. Namrata? Let's set aside the questions you had about my relationship with Advaita and comment on your son's infidelity."
She stood expressionless and silent as Naksh, with his head bowed, confirmed his relationship with Samriddhi.
Bhavishya told Anshika, "I remember the conversation we had a few days ago about Advaita and Naksh. Initially, I didn't believe that my son could be involved in something like that, but you presented me with some evidence that changed my mind. I feel terrible that Advaita was put in danger because of Naksh's actions, and I want to extend my sincerest apologies for any harm caused."
Anshika said, "Let's set aside our plans for the future and focus on the sudden turn of events. Our clients were supposed to sign deals with us, but their families were attacked, which prevented them from coming. Then somebody gave drugs to Advaita through which my business and reputation could be ruined, and now suddenly, today you are being targeted by using Naksh's affair. What's going on?"
Bhavishya replied "I am uncertain about what the future holds. However, I will take some time to consider the situation and conduct an investigation. As of now, only the engagement between Naksh and Advaita has been canceled, but our friendship will remain unaffected. I apologize for any inconvenience caused."
Anshika calmly said, "It's okay."
Bhavishya put his hand on Advaita's head and said, "Dear Advaita, I hope you are feeling better soon. Please know that I am sorry for any trouble I may have caused you."
Advaita held his hands and said, "Why are you apologizing, uncle? You haven't done anything? Stay calm and focus on your goals. Sometimes your close person can also be your hidden enemy, so be careful."
Bhavishya nodded his head and said, "I will."
Advit said to Shivansh, "This Advaita has changed a lot. My sister doesn't do such sensible things."
Shivansh nodded and then said, "Well, we both have also changed. Why are we standing in the corner like gossiping aunties today and judging people?"
"I don't know," he said, shrugging his shoulders."
Advaita said to everyone "I have to rest. Can you leave me alone for a while?"
Anshika nodded yes and said, "Absolutely. If you need anything, call me and I'll be right there."
Everybody came out of Advaita's room so she could rest. Advaita picked up a newspaper and started flipping through its pages. Suddenly, something caught her attention and she stopped.
"This is not possible. It's a joke." came out of Advaita's mouth."
