I read your comments saying anika should have told shivaay. So, she hasn't told him because she thinks he doesn't know and she is worried about how hurt he would be when he finds out that omkara is not of oberoi blood.
NO PROOF READ so I apologise for any mistakes.

A week, That's all the time she had and she had to utilize it so that she could parda faash tia and mrs kapoor.
The next day
There was a pooja held for tia. This was the best opportunity to do what anika had planned.
Anika approaches dadi who was talking to a servant. "dadi? anika calls out and dadi turns and smiles at anika. "anika puttar, bol beta kya hua?
" dadi aaj ghar mein pooja hai aur main mandir gayi thi, devi maa ka ashirwaad hai iss dhaage mei. Mai chahti hun ki aap ye tia ko dedein. Ye raksha dhaga uski aur aane wale bacche ki raksha karega she gives a dhaga to dadi "aur dadi ek baat aur, aap tia se yeh mat kahiyega ki yeh main layi hun, aap toh jaante ho na, vo nahi pehenegi ise
"haan puttar, tu chinta na kar, main nahi bataungi use dadi smiles and leaves for tia's room.
"tia dadi calls as she enters tia's room and she sees her standing by the window. Tia turns to look at her and smiles "grandmom aap yahan? she asks and goes to dadi. Dadi makes tia sit on the bed and she herself sits beside her.
"puttar main tujhe yeh raksha dhaaga bandhne aayi hun, isse tere aur hone wale bache ka koi baal bhi baanka nahi kar payega.
Tia doesn't believe in all this but for dadi, she accepts the dhaga and daadi ties it on her arm and tells her not to remove it.

"saumya tujhe sab dikh raha hai na? anika asked through the Bluetooth device she had put on. "haan di, mujhe sab dikh raha hai aur sunai bhi de raha hai, tia tayyar ho rahi hai saumya informed anika.
Anika had put a camera cum microphone in the dhaga (its thick as a band to hide the thing) so she could see and hear everything.
During the pooja nothing happened, tia never did anything suspicious and even mrs. Kapoor didn't go anywhere. And also anika couldn't concentrate because of the way shivaay was staring at her, his gaze not wavering from her. In her nervousness she didn't realise that both mrs.kapoor and tia were missing after the pooja.
Getting into action she went to dadi and asked where they were. Apparently tia was not feeling well and so she went to her room. Anika called saumya to know what was happening. Saumya quickly sent her a video clip of the footage.
In that footage she could see mrs.kapoor talking to tia. "tia tum sab bhool gayi ho, yeh oberois acche nahi hain
"mom you know ki main aisa kuch nahi chahti hun, sirf aapke kehne par hi main shivaay se shadi kar rhi hun but main shivaay aur anika ko alag nahi karna chahti. Unn dono ke beech jo rishta hai vo mere aur shivaay ke beech kabhi nahi hoga
Mrs.kapoor gets angry an holds her arm tightly, enough to hurt her " tumhe lagta hai ki I care about that. Ye jo accident hua hai na tumhara, vo maine karvaya tha tia was shocked "how could you mom, mere baare mein nahi but mere baby ke baare mein to socha hota? tia yelled at her. "chillao mat tia, main toh chahti hun ki vo mar jaye toh dushyant naam ka bukhar uttar tumhare sar se
~
Anika was stunned to see this, this was terrible and this also meant tia was not at fault. She could show this to shivaay now and this will be the end of Mrs.kapoor but still there was one thing needed to be proved.
Anika called khanna "khanna ji kaam ho gaya kya? she asked "haan kal tak reports aa jayengi and they cut the call after she thanks him.
Bas ek din aur fir shivaay aur unki family se mrs.kapoor ko dhakke maar kr nikalungi.

At night anika went to shivaay's room to get some of her things from there. Shee peeked in and saw that shivaay wasn't there and breathed a sigh of relief. She enterd and went towards the closet. As the opened it she heard a door closing, startled she looked at the room door and found shivaay standing there. Her heartbeat increased and she didn't know what to do.
"shivaay? she said "haan, tum mere kamre mei kya kar rahi ho anika? he asks as he comes close to her "vo she hesitates and steps back as he comes closer "mai kuch kapde.. lene aayi thi and her back touches the wall behind her. Shivaay keeps coming close and cages her between his arms.
His face comes really close as he moves his face near her ear. "anika? he speaks but anika spoils the mood "yeh thik nahi hai... humara divorce. But before she could complete her sentence, shivaay jerks his head back and punches the wall. Anika winces at that "kuch papers mujhe tumse door nahi rakh saqte anika, I don't care about these papers he tells her in a determined and firm voice. "aapko manna padega shivaay, kyunki main manti hun aur jo app kar rahe hain vo galat hai she says and pushes him back,it barely makes him move.
"I don't know ki yeh tum kyun kar rahi ho, but obviously you have a reason. Maine sign sirf isiliye kiya kyunki main hamesha tumhara saath dena chahta hun hearing this melts her heart and she is about to give in but stops herself. "I'm sorry she says and runs away before he could make another move.
Next morning
Anika couldn't be more nervous. Today was the day she would present the truth infront of the oberois. The only thing needed was the reports and now she had then but couldn't find the courage to open it. She had given the samples of tej, jhanvi and om for dna test and now this will tell the future of her plan.
If the reports were positive then there was nothing to be worried about but if they were negative then this situation will be out of her hands in seconds. Praying to god, she handed the reports to saumya as she didn't want to be the first one to find out.
Anika waited, counting every second as it passed. "positive saumya said and anika couldn't react for a few seconds, then she turned and looked at the reports. Happy, she hugged saumya. "ab iss mrs.kappor ko toh yahan se jana hi padega.

Later
Everyone was gathered in the hall when the lights went off. And then as everyone wondered what happened, a voice could be heard. It was the same recording that saumya had sent anika. Lights came on to see everyone's shocked faces.
"what is this? mrs.kapoor yelled as she held the papers. "aapki sacchai anika said and came infront of them. "tum yeh kya keh rahi ho? mrs.kapoor raised her phone to show it to anika.
"anika, stop it shivaay stopped her by holding her hand but she looked at him "aapko mujh par bharosa hai na shivaay? she asked "haa par.. "toh bas. Saumya? she called saumya and everyone was shocked to see her but didn't say anything.
Saumya came and gave a copy of the file to mrs.kapoor. mrs.kapoor already knew the truth so she tore them away. "shivaay, yeh anika kya kar rahi hai? she warned shivaay without saying the exact words. That's when anika realised that maybe shivaay had known, that's why he was stopping her. She interrupted shivaay before he could say anything "shivaay rukiye, yeh dekhiye she showed him the file and also explained him everything that happened with her. The other's couldn't keep up with them.
"puttar ye sab kya ho raha hai? dadi asked. Shivaay answered her and told them everything.
How mrs.kapoor had blackmailed him first and then anika and told the lie about om being illegitimate son. How mrs.kapoor was responsible for tia's accident and that tia already has some man in her life, everything.
"toh ab, isse pehle ki main police ko bulaun, get out of my house shivaay tells her in a calm but firm voice.
As mrs. Kapoor leaves, oberois start talking "oh my mata Shakti ji, mujhe toh kabhi pata hi nahi chala ki yeh sab plans bana rahi thi mrs.kapoor pinky said and dadi came to anika "puttar, tune itna sab kuch akele hi kar liya? Tu kitna kuch karti hai iss parivaar ke liye. And dadi hugs her. "akele kahan dadi, saumya aur khanna ji the na mere saath. And they laughed. "chalo jo hua accha hua, tia puttar tu chinta mat kar, tu hamare saath rahegi dadi declares.
All the while shivaay didn't say anything as he realised that divorce was a show for mrs.kapoor. Without saying anything he held anika's wrist and took her away.
"shivaay chodiye mujhe, yeh kya kar rahe hain aap? she struggled to get out of his hold but he didn't let go. He took her to his room, closed the doors and pushed her to it. "tumne mujhe kyun nahi btaya anika, agar tumhe kuch ho jata toh? Yeh divorce mrs.kapoor ki condition thi na? he asked but anika didn't know how to answer him.
"mujhe laga aap nahi jaante the iss baare mein aur aapko pata chalta toh aap she nhi pate, isiliye nahi btaya aur ye divorce mazaak nahi hai shivaay. She finished and shivaay was stunned. "tum kahin nahi jaa rahi ho he declared "mujhe jana hai shivaay please, aapko meri kasam aap mujhe nahi rokenge aur naahi aap mujhe dhundenge. As she said these words, tears slid from her eyes. "main nahi manta iss kasam ko and he hugs her. "please shivaay, mere liye, mujhe jaane dijiye she cries but doesn't let him go and he tightens the hug.
Anika breaks the moment and says "aap bahot acche hain shivaay par hum dono ka saath bas yahin tak tha, mujhe jana hai she says.
It wasn't easy for her to leave but om and rudra had been very understanding and they held shivaay as she left.
"accha hi hai, bala tali pinky says after she leaves. "pinky, chup kar. Tujhe shivaay ki halat nahi dikh rahi? dadi said as she saw him storming off to somewhere.

Anika cried so much that day and she remembered the day she got married and stepped in the OM as Mrs. Anika shivaay singh oberoi.
Now she was just Anika.
