Nandini was ready for her revenge... not knowing that Manik is the one who's actually helping her indirectly...
Nandini reached Scotland...along with Aryaman.. and exclaimed, " wow!! It feels so good to be back... With a vengeance"
Aryaman kept his hand on her shoulder and supported her by saying, " Nandini, you have suffered so much... And now its their time to go through the same pain that you have gone through..."
She smiled proudly and said, " and this time Aryaman , I'm gonna show them their standards...come let's go to the hotel..."
"Why hotel? You have taken an apartment here also right...?" Asked Aryaman while Nandini replied, " yes... But it's not clean, I called some house helpers... They said that the apartment should be clean within three days.."
" till then mr. fiancé... We have to stay in a hotel" spoke Nandini by lifting her eyebrow...
He smiled and they settled into Hotel Peninsular Grand which is One of the most expensive hotels in the city of Scotland...
"Life is so much weird sometimes... this hotel gave me my first ever job... As an assistant chef, a couple of years ago...and i wanted to live in this presidential suite but couldn't back then... And then I landed a job aryaman's company... and then Manik's.. oops.. that cheater's company.." thought Nandini to herself smiling sarcastically Where is sipping a cup of hot coffee... In the hall of her presidential suite...
" now look at me.. I have everything... I have money, i have a successful company and i am getting married to aryaman... but am i happy? no i am not happy... all my happiness got snatched by that one person... manik malhotra..." with anger in her eyes....
Aryaman knocked on her door... And she opened it after some time and asked, " what happened aryaman? Anything important..."
He smiled and replied, " nothing important... Nandini, I came here to spend some time with you... As in I want us to go to a restaurant and have lunch"
"You know that we are getting married to each other, so we should kind of spend some time with each other..." spoke Aryaman sheepishly...
While Nandini nodded in yes and replied , " give me five minutes... I'll just get ready and come" and closed the door... while Aryaman was looking at her loving eyes...
In the same hotel, Manik has a meeting, he went there to discuss business deal with investors... but he was having no idea that... He's going to meet his past... that he's dying to make his future...
Nandini got dressed up in a short dress...Looking decent yet hot... She came there along with her fiancé and sat in a table... Unknown to her, Manik was also sitting kind of near to her table...
He was able to see her properly... But she couldn't see him..
The moment manik saw Nandini, time has stopped for him..
He was looking at her eyes... That once shined for him, but now it lost its Shane... He was looking at her lips that once smiled for him ~a real smile, but now it has adorned a fake one.
She's looking so modern he thought... But she wasn't happy with this change... She wanted her old self back
But it's really not possible because her old self is brutally killed by Manik.. his mind was totally on her... He was seeing her after seven months
Manik didn't even care that the investors were calling him repeatedly...one of the shook him and asked
Investor: what happened Mr Malhotra? Are you OK?
Manik: oh yes... I'm good thanks for asking, but please can we have this business meeting tomorrow... Actually I have to do something important... Just now I realized it... I'm sorry for the trouble...
Investors smiled and said OK for tomorrow's meeting after which they left the hotel...
Manik just wanted to look at her.. till eternity.. Yes seven months was eternity for him... He missed her terribly.... he loved her like crazy... He never wanted her to leave him at all
But he had to pretend betraying her... Because of some very strong reason...
Nandini also felt that Someone is watching her... She tried to look into that direction... But she couldn't find anyone...
"Why do I have a feeling that someone was watching me? Someone very close to me... Someone wait! Was Manik watching me?" Thought Nandini.. And again look into the same direction... Unfortunately she did not find anyone this time also
Manik stood besides one of the pillars and thought, " thank God Nandini, did not see me... otherwise she would leave this place... Getting angry which I don't want... I really want her to see... It's been a while, I just want to watch her for sometime, don't know what God has in store for me"
