"Nandini ji I will come to the point, I can't risk my son life anymore & I think Maya is the case of all the problems in our house, first someone poisoned Rudra food then fire in his room but you see Rudra is the only one who got hurt and his accident now it's enough. I can't see my son hurt anymore" Antara said. Nandini feel fear for Maya now understanding Antara is right on her place.
"So I will say you can take your daughter back to your home, I will send divorce papers in five days" Antara said shocking Nandini.
"Please don't do this" Nandini beg in front of her after coming out of shock.
"There is no use of your begging now, so please go to Rudra room Maya is there, pack her bag so you can take your daughter away from my house & most important away from my son life" Antara said. Nandini has tears she don't know how much her daughter would hurt after knowing about her divorce.

"For how many days?" she thinking its just for some days.
"To never return here again" Nandini said. Maya happy face turn pale soon.
"Maa what are you saying?" she ask confused, Nandini grab her hand.
"Antara ji tell she will send divorce papers in five days" she tell shocking Maya.
"She can't do this, how will I live without Rudra" she murmur last line but Nandini heard & she feel sad that her daughter again lost her happiness. she saw how much Maya is happy after her marriage and she know all thanks goes to Rudra!
"Maya" Nandini shake her seeing her lost.

"You said you love me then how can you give me divorce" she looked him with her moist eyes.
"What?" he hold her arm in shock.
"Your mother, she tell maa to take me to her home & you are divorcing me" told everything what Nandini told her.
"I think you lost your mind, why would maa say something like this?" he can't believe what she just told him, because it's Antara only who make him marry Maya then why would she think of their divorce.
"Yes I had lost my mind the moment you come into my life, do you got it just because of you Mr. Roy" her hate filled eyes stunned him, until now he thought she don't love him but now he witnessed her hatred for him.
"Maya" he try to touch her but she yank his hand away.

"Just stop it Maya do you even know what are you talking?" he made her face him holding her shoulders.
"Yes I know very well what I'm talking and you know what I think you are bored of me now because in name of marriage you are just using me for your body pleasure" she blabber anything in her hurt and anger.
"Maya" Rudra shout in rage.
"I hate you" Maya broke into tears.
"How can you think so low about me?" he takes two step toward her.
"I just hate you" she is hating everything around her.
"Maya" he shake her seeing her murmurings something.
"You don't love me" she looked up to his face still crying.
"How I make you believe I love you" he stroke her cheek, she move close to find solace, Rudra hugged her close dearly. she hold him tightly fearing for something that she herself don't have idea.
