Chapter 35: Chapter 35

Author's pov

Ranvijay came to the police station to meet that man who attacked Niyati. He entered the police station having a suspicious expression on his face.

He reached the Inspector's room and requested the inspector to let him meet the attacker.

" That man is insane. What will you do by meeting him, Mr Mehra?" The inspector told Ranvijay with his boring voice.

Ranvijay replied," I just wanted to ask him why he attacked my wife? What's enmity he has with her?"

The inspector said with his pissed off voice," I don't think he knows why he attacked Mrs Mehra because he is insane. 'I will destroy VR'. Apart from this one sentence, he isn't saying anything more. We have already started an investigation to know more about him and very soon we will send him to any mental hospital."

Hearing the word investigation, a little frown appeared on Ranvijay's face. He became a little bit worried about this investigation thing and he knows he needs to stop this as soon as possible. If the attacker opens his mouth then he will be in trouble.

" Inspector, I just want to meet him for once. If you want I can give you a little gift. You just have to let me meet that attacker," Ranvijay told the inspector and placed a few notes under a file.

The inspector smiled cockily and permitted Ranivijay by winking his eyes. Ranvijay just smirked after having the approval.

The attacker was sitting in the jail and chanting only one thing 'I will destroy VR'. He doesn't have any idea about his surroundings nor he is understanding anything. He is lost in his own world.

" ACP Roy," Ranvijay called the attacker and the man became alerted immediately.

He looked frontwards and found that Ranvijay is standing outside of jail having a hard expression on his face. ACP Roy gritted his teeth in anger and came running to hold Ranvijay's collar. But, due to the metallic jail, he couldn't touch Ranvijay.

" Bastard! Murderer!! I will kill you," ACP Roy growled on Ranvijay's face.

Ranvijay didn't react to his cursing. He only sighed looking at ACP Roy.

" I am sorry Mr Roy. I am sorry for my misdeeds," Ranvijay apologized genuinely.

ACP Roy replied roaring like a lion," Stop this drama bastard!! A simple sorry can't cover up your sins! Why you ruined my life like that? Why? I was just doing my duty of saving an innocent teenager."

" That's the mistake you did that led you to your destruction. You tried to snatch my wife from me!!" Ranvijay retorted back angrily.

This time ACP Roy made a disgusted face and spatted back," Wife!! You fucking married a teenager without her consent and you dare to call that marriage!!"

Hearing ACP Roy, Ranvijay was silent sometimes. For a few moments, he lost his words to say something. His mind went back to the previous time and he felt guilty.

Suddenly, he started laughing like a psycho which startled ACP Roy. He looked at Ranvijay with rage-filled yet shocked eyes.

Ranvijay stopped laughing and started saying very dramatically," Brown eyes, long hair, curvy body, beautiful skin.....You know what ACP, my men enjoyed fucking your wife!! Tsk....tsk....tsk....the only thing I feel bad about you is that my men have to kill your child and you are responsible for their death."

Ranvijay told the last part in such a tone that ACP Roy started feeling guilty remembering the day he lost everything. Tears started forming in his eyes and he burst into tears.

" I am not responsible for the.......Ahhhhh..." ACP Roy couldn't complete his sentence and screamed holding his chest.

He fell on the floor and some kind of white froth started coming out of his mouth. He looked at Ranvijay with wide eyes holding his chest and found Ranvijay smirking.

" Goodbye, ACP Roy. Oops former ACP Roy," Ranvijay told sarcastically and came out of the police station giving some more money to the Inspector so that he shuts his mouth.

Coming out of the police station, he looked at the sky and said," Sometimes we have to be bad to save ourselves."

After some time, Shivansh came to the police station to know about the attacker. But, he was shocked beyond the level when the inspector informed him that the attacker has died of a heart attack.

He wanted to know more about Ranvijay from this attacker but to his utter disappointment, nothing happened like that.

Shivansh is still worried about Niyati and Neela. There is no guarantee that another enemy of Ranvijay won't attack Niyati or try to harm her. He is always concerned about her and his daughter. He just hopes they remain safe.

Shivansh's pov

" She is so cute," Dad said smiling looking at Neela's picture.

I replied chuckling," She is cuter in real. You won't believe how cutely she talks."

Well, I have called Dad here to share the good news that he has a grandchild. Ma was already here so I thought to call him also. Moreover, I needed them for suggestions about Neela's custody.

" Have you done a DNA test? How can you be so sure that she is your daughter? Is there any guarantee that that characterless woman hasn't slept with another man?" Ma asked with her annoyed voice.

Before I could reply anything, Dad told her showing Neela's picture," There is no need for the DNA test, to be honest. Just looking at her face anyone will understand that she is Shiv's daughter. She is like a photocopy of her father. Just a baby girl version."

Ma looked at the picture and mumbled," But, still you should have done a DNA test. What if that gi.............

" I have done a DNA test and it is confirmed that Neela is my daughter," I informed interrupting her.

Ma just sighed and asked me curiously," So, what's your intention about this girl now?

" I am going to have my daughter back," I declared and she looked at me widening her eyes.

Before I could say something more, Dad held my hand and suggested to me," Shiv, I don't think you should snatch her from her mother. I mean it will affect Neela's little mind if we suddenly snatch her from her mother. So, I will suggest you to think about this matter again."

This time, I fell into a total dilemma. He is also right. But, how can I just let my daughter live with a criminal? What if someone tries to harm my daughter?

" But, Dad. I want my daugh........" I couldn't complete my sentence when he said resting one hand over my shoulder," I know you are concerned about your daughter. But, you have to think about that little girl's mind also. If we suddenly snatch her from her mother, it will leave a bad impression on her about us."

" Then, what I should do, Dad? I want my daughter," I told him desperately. I wanted to say that one part of me still wants Niyati but I composed myself thinking about her betrayal.

He replied assuring me," There is no need to worry. We should talk about this matter with Niyati first. If she is Neela's mother then you are Neela's father. You have right on Neela. But, still, we can't decide anything without Niyati's consent. First, we have to discuss with her about Neela."

" Yes, Dad. You are right. First, we need to talk with Niyati," I agreed with him and he gave me an assuring smile.

I looked at ma and expected some words from her. But, she was like lost in her own world. I can clearly notice that she is thinking something deeply.

I asked catching her attention," What's your opinion about this matter, ma?"

" Whatever is good for you son. I will always support you," She told smiling.

Then, she said chuckling," So, when am I going to meet my granddaughter?"

" Very soon, Ma," I told her.

Dad said excitedly," I can't wait to meet that cute doll. She is my first grandchild and I will love her a lot."

" Yes, Dad. We all will love her a lot," I told him excitedly just imagining my daughter in my house.

After two weeks

Author's pov

Niyati was discharged from the hospital yesterday and now she is a little bit fine physically. But, mentally she is depressed about Shivansh's threatening.

In these two weeks, she didn't saw Shivansh nor he tried to contact her. It's like he has vanished in the air. But, in reality, Shivansh was always having his eyes on her and Neela. He was actually giving some time to Niyati so that she can recover.

Right now, Ranvijay and Neela are in the living room. Neela is watching doremon where Ranvijay is busy braiding her silky hair and Niyati is in the washroom taking a shower.

Suddenly, the doorbell rang and Ranivijay went to the door to open it. He wonders who came here early in the morning.

" You!!" Ranvijay exclaimed with anger after opening the door.

His good mood became sour seeing Shivansh early in the morning. He looked behind Shivansh and found that a middle-aged man and woman are standing. They are looking aristocratic by their clothes. He also noticed some bodyguard type people who were holding huge shopping bags.

Ranvijay ignored all this and tried to shut the door when Shivansh stopped him from shutting the door.

" Don't create any unnecessary drama, please. My parents want to meet their granddaughter and I want to talk with Niyati casually. After that, we will leave on our own," Shivansh told Ranvijay with an icy cold voice.

Ranvijay thought for some time and decided to let them in just considering Shivansh's parents age.

" Daddy, who are they? Why this bad uncle is here again?" Neela asked innocently noticing Shivansh and his parents.

She hid behind Ranvijay like a scared kitten. She is scared in real after seeing a lot of people suddenly. She is also angry when she noticed Shivansh.

" Neela baby. I am sorry," Shivansh apologized and tried to touch her.

But, she flinched backwards holding Ranvijay's pant and replied angrily," Don't touch me. I don't like you. You scolded mommy and made her cry. You are bad."

Shivansh looked at his parents helplessly who has concerned expressions on their faces. Specifically, Satya is very concerned about Neela and Shivanah.

Ranvijay noticed all this and thought to step forward. He kneeled in front of Neela and held her hands gently.

" What did I teach you, beta(dear)? If someone is genuinely guilty then we should forgive them. Shouldn't we?" Ranvijay asked Neela affectionately and she nodded her head in the positive.

Then, he said softly," Your uncle is sorry for behaving rudely with your mommy. Now, he is apologizing to you genuinely so you should forgive him. Right?"

" Yes," Neela told to Ranvijay.

Then, she said looking at Shivansh," I forgive you."

" Thanks, dear," Shivansh said getting overwhelmed and pulled her chubby cheeks a little.

Then, Satya came forward and said smiling," You are the cutest baby girl I have ever seen. Look what I have got for you."

Saying that, Satya showed some toys and dresses to Neela very excitedly. He tried to touch her but she flinched backwards because of fear. She is afraid of strangers.

Ranvijay noticed it and told Neela pointing his finger at Shivansh's parents," They have come here after a long journey just to meet you. So, I want you to talk with them politely. Shouldn't we show respect to our elders?"

" Yes, Daddy," Neela replied and went towards Satya.

She touched his feet to take the blessing and this thing just touched Satya's heart. He immediately picked her up and kissed her forehead along with her fluffy cheeks.

Seeing all these, Lalita just rolled her eyes. She is less interested in Neela but she has an evil plan inside her head. She is just waiting for Niyati's entry.

Very soon, Neela became comfortable with Shivnash's parents. Specifically, she started liking Satya more because he got so many dolls and chocolates for her. But, she didn't like Lalita that much because she felt this woman a little bit scary.

" Thanks," Shivansh told Ranvijay keeping his eyes on Neela.

Ranvijay replied sternly," I didn't do it for you. I did it for your parents because I have some soft corners for elderly people."

" Whatever," Shivansh mumbled rolling his eyes.

After that, Neela started laughing and talking with Satya and Shivansh very comfortably. She told them the poems she learnt from her mother, she told them about her friends, her favourite foods and everything. And, very soon she started thinking of them as her good friends.

Neela is still talking with Satya when Niyati's voice echoed through the whole room like a thunderstorm," What the hell is happening here? How dare you all enter my house?"

Everyone became startled by the sudden voice and looked at Niyati with perplexed eyes. Niyati didn't have any intention to behave rudely. But, remembering their humiliations she just couldn't help herself from getting angry.

Before anyone could say anything, Niyati told Ranvijay," Ranvijay, go to the bedroom with Neela right now."

Ranvijay didn't say anything further. He just picked up Neela in his arms and did whatever Niyati commanded her. He knew that a big fight is going to happen between Niyati and Shivansh.

" May I know why you all are here?" Niyati asked with her hard voice.

Shivansh replied grinning," First, calm down. Ok. We are not here to rob your house."

" We are here to talk about Neela's cus...... " Satya couldn't complete his sentence when Niyati's voice boomed through the whole room.

She screamed anger dripping from her voice," Can't you guys see me in peace? Huh!! And about What custody you are talking? Hmm!! I am not going to give my daughter to you. I am not going to give my daughter to a coward and a manwhore like him."

Niyati told the last part looking at Shivansh. He just clenched his jaw tightly after hearing her. How dare she call him a coward!!

" Bit....Niyati..we are here to talk peacefully. So, don't ruin the environment," Shivansh warned her.

He almost cursed her but controlled himself immediately understanding that he needs to talk with her peacefully.

She replied angrily," There is nothing to say and discuss. Just leave my house. Neela is only my daughter."

" You have hidden the truth from us and kept us in darkness about your pregnancy. And, now you are claiming that Neela is only your daughter!!! We are not going to let our grandchild live with a characterless woman like you. I don't want my granddaughter to become a prostitute like you," Lalita spatted on Niyati's face.

She told every word by putting extra pressure to make Niyati angrier. And, that's it. Niyati couldn't control her anger anymore. She just glared at Lalita but didn't reply back to her.

She noticed the gifts Raichands got for Neela and her anger exploded. She looked at them and picked up these gifts. She threw away the gifts outside which was very insulting for the Raichands.

" Leave politely before I throw you all out of my house like these,"Niyayi told them pointing her fingers at the gifts which are now scattered on the ground like some kind of filthy dirt.

Satya couldn't tolerate this insult anymore. So he just left the house without uttering any word. Shivansh called him from behind but he didn't turn back.

This time, Lalita started doing her drama. She started crying having a painful expression on her face.

" That's why you brought us here. Right, Shiv? To get us insulted. Good. Very good," Lalita said shedding some crocodile tears.

Then, she left the house wiping her tears though Shivansh called her multiple times.

" Now, will you do the favour of leaving or do you want some special kind of treatment?" Niyati asked him mockingly.

And, the next time moment Niyati started thrashing her hands and feet like a slaughtered animal. She started struggling for breath because of Shivansh's tight grip around her neck.

" You are going to pay for this. Do you understand?" He growled on her face.

Niyati replied struggling," L....ea....ve.....me.."

" You have to give answers for every drop of my mother's tears. I will make sure you pay for this behaviour," Shivanah whispered in her ear and she can feel the destructive promise in his voice which just created a shiver in her whole system.

Shivansh didn't say anything further and left the house angrily. But, before leaving he gave Niyati a look that shook her from the core of her heart. She saw a fire in his eyes and she is sure it will burn her.
