I lost interest in her mystery man, but I'll admit I'm curious why she is doing all this. If it's just about his money then any man successful rich man will do, but it has to be him. Why?
We know for certain it's the opposite for Shivaay. Tia isn't special or the only option for him. If it wasn't Tia it would be some other rich upper-class woman. We know he wants a trophy wife, but it's still a drastic shift from Mallika the smart high-profile architect to the tarot card reading socialite. It would be nice to see their backstory, which I doubt will happen at this point in the story.
Given what we have seen Shivaay isn't the "marry for love" type.
He makes no effort to hide his views about love and relationships. He is looking for a business relationship not love. Mallika, who given by their interactions was treated with more respect and affection than Tia has ever experienced in 100+ episodes but she still left. He never dismissed or treated Mallika like a doormat, but she knew she deserved to be loved so she moved on with her life. No self-respecting woman would tolerate his behavior, but yet Tia is still here. It could be revenge or for money, but whatever the reason she needs this marriage to happen, period.
1. Money.
- The constant mention of his personal wealth in recent episodes isn't a coincidence. It may be to highlight Tia's motive or for the aftermath of the Shivika wedding (Anika is after his money crapfest).
- Financial trouble. Her entire family is involved, which could mean they are in trouble financially. Its possible that he doesn't know about their failing business. A CEO mishandling funds and hiding their misdeeds isn't new. If Shivaay marrying her will benefit him financially then it works both ways.
2. Revenge
- Personal revenge. He might have done something in the past that affected her or her family, but he doesn't remember. The action might not have been directed at her so he has no reason to suspect her.
- Sins of the father. Senior O's have a lot of secrets and maybe her family wants to get revenge. He may not have anything to do with all this, but he is guilty by association.
3. Gold digger with a conscience.
- Her guilt is fleeting. She felt bad about blackmailing him but not bad enough to actually stop. She wants to marry him at any cost.
I agree everything she has done so far was a defense tactic. However, now that she is close to her goal whatever it is so she can't take any chances. Her actions aren't out of jealousy because she doesn't love him. She is removing the obstacles in her way to get what she wants, this marriage. If done right this could make for some amazing drama 😆
