Abeer left for India with his mother before a week to Shivratri, as he has to clear many things about adhya to his family.
When they reached Shimla,gauri was the only one who was present to welcome them in the Shekhawat mansion as rudra was in Singapore on a business trip, and will be back before a day or two to Shivratri.
Abeer got disappointed with rudra's absence as he want to have a heart to heart talk with his brother. But now he has to wait for rudra's return.
On the other hand in London adhya 's family started their preparations for the journey. Ashish and devrat already discussed that if everything went well they will at least do an engagement to make this relationship official.
The day arrived when rudra came back from his trip late at night. The next day, rudra touched his chachi's feet for blessing and hugged Abeer who bent to touch his bhai's feet. After exchanging greetings they all got settled for breakfast.
S group is going to start their first project in Singapore and rudra was busy with that project for two months ., after breakfast, he went to his study for some important office work.
Rudra was sitting in the study, going through some files before leaving for the office. Abeer entered the study and stood in front of him, Rudra already knows what he is going to talk about ., and he was surprised to see the nervousness on abeer's face." So how is the work going "
"Good bhai "
"Hmm, so when is the khurrana family arriving in Shimla ".
' Ji tomorrow '
"Ok, I have made their arrangement in the hotel as they are just paying us a visit nothing is fixed yet, so I can not make them stay at our place ."
"It's ok bhai,.....voh bhai .. "
"Hmm "
"I want to talk to you "
" yes "
" Bhai adhya is a very nice girl, independent, mature and friendly nature. He respects elders bhai, she is a gem and I don't want to lose her. I love her bhai ."
Rudra was just observing abeer that how much his brother is trying to convince him for adhya.
" We will see that abeer, now if you have done with your talk so I think I should leave ."Rudra left the study taking long strides.
Rudra was not a man who believe in others' opinions he always judges people by himself.,abeer knows his brother but he was confident that rudra will never hurt him in any way.
During the flight, drishti tried to give some brain to her naive daughter.
" What do you think about rudra? "
"Mom why should I think about him ?"
"No I mean dont you find it weird that the elders took permission for him why is that man so important to them ."
"Mom I am warning you dont you use this kind of words in front of any family members of shekhawats. I just know that rudra Singh Shekhawat has earned respect with his selfless deeds. And most importantly abeer loves him a lot. So please I request to you to keep your holy thoughts to yourself "
drishti wanted to laugh out at her stupid girl but she composed herself and tried in another way.
"See beta you are taking me wrong I am just worried for you . You know I mean if this alliance got fixed ."...
Adhya glared at drishti.
"No ...no mean it is going to fix I am sure of that and I have no problem with abeer but are you okay if every decision of your life will be taken with the permission of rudra "
"See you are too innocent, but I must tell you that whoever has the authority over money and business will always dominate in family matters.
what if rudra will dominate your and abeer's relationship than how will you manage dear.After hearing her mother, Adhya's mind doubted rudra's true intentions. Her mother's words were successful in making a great impact on adhya's naive mind.
Devrat who was just sitting behind them understood that drishti started playing mind games with her granddaughter .. he was still hoping that Adhya would not believe her mother.
When they reached Chandigarh, four expensive cars and two SUVs with guards were waiting for them. Abeer greeted the elders and had them settled in their respective cars. As it was already evening when they landed in Chandigarh and it will take 3 hours to reach Shimla by car the very next day they are going to Kasauli where the puja was organised.
Adhya So much wanted to hug abeer as she missed him, but remembering her dadu's advice she kept it for later. The love birds only greeted each other. After some hours they all reached Shimla. They all reached the booked hotel, where the best suits were booked for them.
Drishti was overwhelmed to see how rich is Shekhawat family, which means at the airport when she saw the security guards, Mercedes and Audi cars waiting for them she understood that garima was not bragging that day she was stating the truth only .shekhawat's are rich like Richy rich people.
She cursed herself for playing with adhya's brain she make a mental note that she will convince adhya to forget about what she said before and just focus on abeer.
Dr Ashish Khurrana was impressed to see the suite too. But he also wants to pay for their hotel expenses which he was sure will be over the budget for him but still, he asked abeer.
"Beta why did you take the trouble I mean I should have booked a hotel for my family, "Ashish asked politely.
"No uncle I didnt do this, all these arrangements were done by rudra bhaiya ". Khurrana family was surprised to know this new information.
"Oh then I must thank him please convey my thank you to him but I will stay here only on one condition "
" What condition" abeer asked Ashish.
" I will pay for this hotel bill "
" No uncle its not needed as it is one of our hotels only so "
"See how mature he is, "drishti again started her foolish behaviour.
"Drishti beta they are saying this because we Indians believe in' Atithi Devo bahav' means guests are like god.
But we are here for our daughter's alliance so I think Ashish is doing the right thing ."" ok as you say papa Ji " drishti replied sweetly because she doesn't want abeer to doubt her values, so she acted like a good daughter in law
" Uncle let me talk with bhai because he will be annoyed if he comes to know about this ."
Abir went out of the room to talk with rudra but this action of his made the doubt in their mind of adhya became strong.
Ashish stopped abeer in between and ask politely.
"If you dont mind I want to talk to him"
"Yes sure uncle "
"Bhai Khurana's uncle wants to talk to you'"
'Good evening mr shekawat "
" Good evening mr khurrana"
"Thank you for making such a nice arrangement for our stay but I will pay for these hotel charges "
" That does not need mr khurrana as you are our gues, and overall the hotel is one of our properties".
"No mr Shekhawat I am here for my daughter's alliance so it's not suitable to stay here without paying any charges .please it's a request mr Shekhawat I hope you understand my situation ."
After a minute of silence, rudra answered
' Ok if you insist I will order the manager to send the bill to you, I hope now its fine to stay at my hotel "
"Yes for sure, thank you for considering my request "
" See you tomorrow mr khurrana good night "
" Goodnight mr Shekhawat ".
Saying this Ashish cut the call and gave it to abeer.
"I am really glad that he agreed " Ashish stated in a relieved tone.
"As you wish uncle but trust me it was not necessary "
" It was beta, it was". Devrat stated lovingly to abeer.
' So I take your leave, I know you all must be tired from the long journey, so take rest as tomorrow morning we have to leave for Kasauli"
"How far is it?"
" Uncle hardly 2 hours "
" So I will pick you all up at 8 am is that fine,"
" What is the time for puja, I mean .."
Drishti asked hesitantly."Aunty, it will start at 7 am, bhai and badima will be leaving tonight only, but I and maa will accompany you all .so see you tomorrow. Goodnight ."
Everybody wish him back and he left from there.
The whole night adhya was thinking about abeer's behaviour, as he only wished for her and rudra's authority over everything.
The next morning adhya got ready in a long Anarkali suit with a dupatta Drishti wore a beautiful saree with a sleeveless blouse, wrapped in a pashmina shawl as it is still cold weather in Shimla. Ashish and devrat wear simple kurta pyjamas. Drishti wore a diamond mangalsutra ., she then insists that adhya wear a chain with a diamond pendant. Adhya was not much fond of jewellery, but for her mother's happiness, she didn't refuse. Abeer reached the hotel on time ., garima also accompanied him. After exchanging greetings .adhya touched Garima's feet after giving blessings to adhya garima hugged her. They all started their journey.Garima suggested adhya and abeer come in SUV in the second car garima.And in the third one devrat Ashish and drishtiBefore going to her car garima nodded at abeer who blinked his eyes .only devrat noticed this, But he was sure that abeer wants to talk to adhya about something important, so garima is giving them privacy. The journey got starte
Shekhawat mansion ., Shimla.When they arrived at the shekhawat mansion, the Khurrana family were awestruck by the view of the shekhawat mansionWhen they entered inside they all got surprised by the interiors of the mansion which is having a touch of royalty in it.Every piece of furniture showpiece, chandelier even the carpet and curtain were looking very exquisite. But what impresses them more is the hospitality and down to earth attitude of the family members. Ashish was feeling ease in his heart as the Shekhawat family welcomed Adhya as she is already their family member.Both the families were sitting at the dining table for lunch. The servants enter with trays of different dishes. On the left side, the whole Khurana family was settled and on the right side the shekhawats.On the Khurana's side all the lunch was served but on the Shekhawat's side was all fast recipes, like sabudana vada,sabudana khichdi, sighade ka halwa and more.Devrat Khurrana were surprised to notice this .l
The next day the khurrana family visited the Shekhawat mansion in the morning to talk about their acceptance of this marriage and the engagement ceremony.Shekhawat family welcomed them smilingly, after exchanging greetings. They were all set in the living room adhya didnt come as it was the discussion between elders." Mrs Shekhawat I want to request something, actually we wanted to have an engagement ceremony before we leave for London to make it official .""I think that's a good idea " gauri chimed in excitement."And one more thing if you dont mind I want my granddaughter's wedding like a proper Indian wedding, I mean please come as a barati to London, I want the wedding in London ."Devrat requested hesitantly." Mr Khurrana I know you must have many dreams for your daughter's wedding, but... I hope you already know that... Abeer's wedding will be the only wedding in our house. Many relatives are waiting for this news for a long time. We always wanted a grand wedding for Abeer in
"What will I know adhya ?" rudra asked in a stern voice with a scary calmness that indicates danger.Listening to his cold voice, she was almost on the verge of fainting. The challenging tone in rudra's voice was well received by her .suddenly she noticed the ladies of the house we're leaving for shopping." Coming badimaa" screaming this she makes a run from there.Abeer laughed hard, looking at her girlfriend who was running like her back was on fire .rudra smiles at her antics. Both the brothers hi-fi each other.All the day adhya was cursing herself for doing this blunder at least she should care about the surroundings before speaking. But she was like this from childhood.After a tiring day of shopping, the ladies were exhausted. Shekhawat family insisted the ladies have dinner with them only, so adhya and drishti agreed.At the dinner table, rudra was notpresent as he was attending some dinner party with foreign delegates. This brings more relief to adhya as she was feeling emb
On reaching the hotel suite adhya started crying loudly. Her parents and grandfather got worried about her." What happened adu? Why are you crying beta? Did you fight abeer? should I talk to him? "Devrat got worried looking at her miserable state"Drishti what has happened to her haan You are with her all day did the Shekhawat family tell her something?"Ashish asked in an angry voice to his wife" I dont know Ashish, she was lost all the time while shopping then after dinner she went with Abeer to the poolside ... yes and then she told me that she is having a headache. So we came back and abeer himself dropped us and he was behaving normally. He was also worried about her health, he suggested visiting a doctor too, but Adhya refused"Devrat sat near adhya and started pressing his temple to help her with her headache.Aadya hugged her dadu, "what happened to my doll haa tell me beta? "" Dadu... I am... I am... so foolish dadu Bewkoof hoon mein, why I never care for the surroundings
The seven-star hotel of Shekhawat group was decorated marvellously. The relatives who were already been jealous of the Shekhawat family were more upset looking at the arrangements of engagement.From the decoration to the buffet everything is looking exquisite, and why not rudra himself has been checking the arrangements for his chote 's special dayThe relatives greeted the Shekhawat s with a smile and a burning heart inside. Everybody is just pretending that they are happy for abeer but the reality of the situation was the exact opposite of it.Some of them were frustrated as they were just waiting for a chance to pin out some mistakes in this engagement but rudra doesn't give them a single chance till now.The other Shekhawat family arrived.Rajdeep and rishab 's first cousin Rakesh Shekhawat with his son Veer Shekhawat arrived with their family Rakesh's father was the real brother of Rajdeep and rishab's father and a drug addict too. Because of his addiction, he was not able to fu
Rudra was holding Adhya by her waist, it was not a tight grip but still a firm grip. His other hand was holding adhya's hand in a light grip. Adhya took some courage to see his face, she found him looking everywhere but not at her. Slow music was making the atmosphere romantic, the dance move was slow as usual. But Adhya was feeling so nervous but, at the same time, she thought of rudra as a mannerless man who even doesn't know how to approach a lady for a dance. She just praying for the music to end soon. As already expected Vicky Jaiswal come toward them and asked politely. " May I have the pleasure to dance with this beautiful lady" he forwarded his hand towards adhya. Adhya thought him to be gentleman enough and at least it was better than dancing with Hitler, she wanted to accept his offer but before anything like that happen, the grip of rudra "s hands tighten on her hand. She looked at rudra who signalled her in no, Adhya got more scared she stilled on her pla

Adhya was once again got impressed by rudra's way to handle things. Devrat and drishti were also praising him.Ashish tried to give a hefty amount in tips to the staff before leaving the hotel, which they denied politely.On the way, they stopped at the Shekhawat mansion for bidding goodbyes.Garima and gauri hugged adhya when she touched their feet for blessings, both the ladies blessed her with tears in their eyes.Rudra was talking to devrat at a little distance from them when Ashish told his family that its time to leave.Everybody went out
