Shweta,

What a brilliant update. Your Khushi is such a resolved character. She is girl next door, simple, humble and grounded, yet her thinking, her concern for others, adapting to situations and being strong no matter what, is really endearing. I am so glad she didn't get lost in the whirlwind of royal family, elite social life and politics.

About Lavanya, this is the kind of reaction I was expecting from, Khushi. She is very practical and not judgmental. So, I wasn't anticipating a big show down with Arnav or even tears. Jealousy and hurt would happen if she had feelings for Arnav but she and Arnav do not have any emotional connection right now. "What matters is no one ridicules me, pities me, or has a little fun at my expense, especially for the deeds that I didn't play a role in. Pride is all I have and pride is all that I want to keep." This sums Khushi for us. For her pride is of utmost importance and it would hurt her more if she loses her pride or if somebody pities her or makes fun of her. Having said that, when Khushi heard about, Lavanya and saw her pictures, she did feel a tad bit jealous and insecure and hence the question "What if he was in love with her?". This also explains the unknown and changing feelings of Khushi for Arnav.

I wasn't waiting, Arnav to give clarifications to Khushi about Lavanya or justifications about his flings in the past; because for him Lavanya or any other girl meant nothing. Plus he's been fighting tooth and nail to move away from his past, so why waste time discussing them.

However, with changing emotions and equations between Arnav and Khushi there will come time when Khushi will need assurances and Arnav will give them.

Khushi will not let Anjali compromise on her choices or dreams. She won't budge if she has to have a face-off with Maasaheb or Akash. I am sure between Khushi and Arnav, Anjali will be protected. And then there is Aman, I am sure he has Anjali's best interest too. I am really intrigued by their story and can't wait to read it.

Aah! Saved the best for the last! And we get another intimate moment!! The attraction and pull they have is so potent, I wonder how long they can keep away from each other. Few more such encounters Khushi will kick her pride and Arnav will screw the guards he set around him and just do the deed.

I love how well you are writing these scenes, it's raw because there are no emotions involved and it comes that way clearly.

Couple of other things that I have to mention:

1. Anjali said "Love..? and dada? Not in million years" wonder if this had something to do with Arnav's past.

2. Khushi says "Arnav would be upset if he comes to know that Anjali is forced into a life that she doesn't want." This shows how well she understands and knows, Arnav, despite their not so ideal and conventional marriage.

What I missed reading:

In last chapter so much happened, especially at the function and the way Arnav and Khushi left the place, I was hoping to see some conversation between these too. I was even hoping to see them share a moment, like they shared in Ujjain at the pond.
