Mehta calls her and tries to bribe her but Aastha tells him that its impossible as her loyalties would always be with ranawat group. Vanraj appears from behind and we realize all this was arranged because vanraj was testing her integrity. Now that he's convinced..he gives her the job back and also the money that she desperately needs. Shubh watches all this from a distance (maybe suggesting that he had a hand in all this). Later shubh asks aastha casually that what would she do if she found out he was lying to her. Aastha tells him that if that's the case, he will stop existing for her. Shubh is shocked. freeze
