They walk into a branded store after trying a few casuals., After a few fittings and consideration, she selects a dress and walks towards the counter to foot the bill.

The person returns the card with the receipt when Aditi sees the receipt her mind goes blank.

She just glares at Anan. They walk out of the store and enters the car.

After a minute of silence, the car starts.

"Explain.", Aditi breaks the silence.

"What?", he acts innocent as he does a U-turn.

"Why do I have so-much money in my card?", She questions him again.

"Ahh...I just sent my salary to you. Isn't that what every household husband do?", Anan spoke.

Aditi was speechless.

"You don't have to send it. I don't spend money usually.", She replies.

"That's what my grandpa and dad do.", he explained.

"Oh."

They reach the Mishra Mansion. The gates open and they enter.

He sees her worried expression and smiles.

Then he walks out of the car and goes to the other side and open her side of the door. She looks at him nervously.

"It's fine I'm here.", he bends and kisses on her forehead.

"Aditi is here.", A voice is heard. When Aditi walked out of the car she sees the legendary singer Suhani AKA chairwoman coming out as the Chairman was following her.

Seeing them coming her Aditi's legs gave in. Anan interlinked his arms with her's. Seeing the confident little woman nervous he felt good.

"Oh dear, Finally you are here.", Suhani pushes Anan to a side and holds Aditi in her arms.

"Chair...Grandma Hello.", Aditi nervously greets her.

Hearing Aditi calling her grandma. Suhani's eyes lit up.

"Mrs Rajesh we can lit the fireworks with the sparks from your eyes.", Elder Mishra spoke.

"Bad joke Old man. Just admit you are jealous that she called me grandma first...", Suhani rolled her eyes at him.

"Grandpa hello.", Aditi greeted him too.

"Good. I got acknowledged too.", Elder Mishra spoke to Suhani.

Aditi saw the old couple and felt they were really cute. She wanted to hack the online articles which said that The Chairman and Chairwoman were cold and extremely hard to get along.

She swore that she wouldn't believe the online articles anymore after realising she was fooled twice.

Meera and Bhargav also walk out to welcome Aditi.

Seeing then coming out.

"Hello Aunty, Hello Uncle.", Aditi greets.

"Don't be so nervous and you guys are married call me Maa.", Meera walks towards Aditi seeing her left hand is linked with Suhani she walks to other side and holds her other side hand.

Bhargav sees her poor son doesn't get any attention and simply smiles and reminisces his memory when Meera and Henna[karan's mom] first married into Vastav's and Mishra's.

He and his friend Varun lost all attention from both of their parents and had to see the new daughter-in-laws getting all the love.

"Let's go.", Suhani walks along with Aditi. Everyone walks in.

"You must be tired let's eat.", Suhani pull Aditi to the dining hall.

Aditi was helpless she was speechless. She was still not ready to believe there can be such a sweet mom and grandma while someone who gave birth to her abounded in the middle of the market.

Her eyes where little bit teary. Anan simply walks towards Aditi.

"Grandma...Maa... don't scare her. You giving her so much attention this will only make her more nervous.", He simply smiled and pulled Aditi to his side.

"I...I'm not...it's just I never had a family or I never had a mom.", She quickly explained.

Suhani simply laughed...

"What nonsense are you spouting? aren't we now your family?" She smiled and caressed Aditi's hair.

Aditi heartfelt the warmth...She nodded as the tears she held back till now burst and her lips moved upwards. Seeing the girl who was so tough crying like a little girl who never received her mom's warmth...Suhani heart began to pain.

"Alright let's eat.", Anan took the tissue from the table as he wiped her tears. She simply smiled at his thoughtfulness.

Everyone took the seat. The servants began to bring and serve the dishes.

When the servant was about to put some starter in Aditi's plate.

"Don't Aditi has an allergy of nuts. Didn't I tell you to before?", Suhani loud voice makes the server step two steps back in fear.

Aditi was also startled she couldn't help but stare at Suhani.

Aditi stares at Gautham who was staring at her and smiling at her startled face. He bends towards her.

"Why are you so surprised? Didn't I tell you they are your stalkers?", Anan shrugs his shoulders.

In Vastav's Villa.

"Karan I made this especially for you. Have some.", Henna passes a big bowl of soup towards him.

"Maa, it's good.", Karan smiles.

"You Idiot get someone home like Anan. He got married and you are still eating your mom's dishes.", Lilly[wife of Mukesh Vastav] is furious about the fact that her best friend who always complained about Anan won't do it and she has to alone feel about her grandson.

"Grandma, I just came back. Let me enjoy my single life for a while.", Karan spoke as he was busy eating his mom's soup.

"You've been single for your whole life. Get someone brat.", Mukesh came in support for his wife.

"Yes Karan listen to dad and mom.", Kyra[adopted daughter of Mukesh] spoke.

"I'm done. I'm going up.", Karan seeing Kyra and her daughter walking towards him stood and went upstairs.

When Henna was about to stop him.

"Leave him alone. He was never friendly with them.", Varun[son of mukesh] stopped his wife.

"I'll get some soup.", Henna walks towards the kitchen.

She burns her hand while pouring the soup into bowls.

[flash back

"Mama can I get one more bowl?", Little Anvi was pulling Henna's dress.

"No, you already had two bowls.", Henna objects.

"Here take mine.", Varun who couldn't bear to see her daughter's face gives up his soup.

"Take mine too.", Little Karan also passes his bowl to Anvi.

"No need I'll get one more for her. You guys are spoiling her too much.", Henna walks in a bring a bowl of soup.

"She is the princess. Princess has all the power.", Varun laughs seeing his daughter.

"What am I then?", Henna pouts a bit.

Varun smiles at Henna's childishness as he walks towards her

"You...The queen.", He kisses her on the forehead. When they saw the twins staring at them. Henna buries her head in Varun arms.

"Daddy mama...we are fine, you guys can carry on.", Karan teases them.

"Henna are you fine?", Varun who just walked in saw his wife's burning hand and quickly hold on to her.

Henna who just came to reality suddenly felt the pain of hot soup as her tears started to drop her but her heart was more hurting than the burning hand.

"Let me put on some ointment.", Varun pulled her out and did the immediate first aid.

"What were you thinking? See you've burnt your hand to this extent.", Varun spoke as he was in the last step of first aid.

"Anvi...she used to like this soup very much.", Henna eyes were teary. She was clearly holding back her tears.

"Henna I'm sorry if I was there with her that day. she wouldn't have eaten that nuts cake, she wouldn't have to go back to the mansion to get her medicine and that accident wouldn't have happened.", Varun spoke.

"It's a known fact that she has an allergy of nuts. Why did that person have to feed her that cake with nuts?", Henna spoke in her raspy voice.

"It was your brother and he didn't know they were nuts in it. Don't blame him. He's still waiting for you to forgive him.", Varun replied.

"If not for him...*after a moment of silence* Not in my dreams, I will never forgive him."
