Instincts
He is all ready to meet girls now? Will that really get her out of his system?
Finding Feisty
Mom is very interested in Taruni. It will be funny if she ends up liking her.
Teeny weeny win
She spent the next week turning the store and home upside down searching for the conveyance deed. She had multiple meetings with her lawyer and accountant, slept in the store, didnāt go home even one time. Her mother brought her nephews over after work when she brought dinner and was confused and shocked her daughter had turned into this person she absolutely did not know any more
āchhod de beta, next week taq kaha se laayegi deed?ā Nidhi panicked
āI have to do everything possibleā
An idea came to her when she was talking to her mother
The next morning she was her lawyer Kareen Sethās office after spending two hours drafting an appeal they drove to the municipal courthouse and paid their way through to get an appointment for August 31st, with a judge
Two days from now
She spent those two days figuring out how to get a copy of the conveyance deed of a sale that happened almost 30 years ago from the government records office
She wept when she was alone
She panicked why the idea did not come to her even a month ago
To have a government clerk go through 30 years of records to find the deed registration and agree to issue a duplicate was going to take months if not years
She secretly talked to two moving companies to see how to vacate the place, she knew the battle was lost
She had nothing, the money in her bank would keep the loan going for 10 months
After that?
There was no plan
She sat in her fatherās reclining chair by the front of the store, after locking up at night with the radio playing on her phone and with a book unable to read thinking about how else she could have hurt Pradyut Munjal
The first couple nights after returning she spent the evenings looking up the company and every person associated with them
Their social media and their family events published in society pages
She didnāt pay any attention to the man, too filled with rage
She also wrote a long objective paragraph to Sharma & Purohit that she will resort to legal and judicial action if they ever ventured to Bhushan Kunj
The morning of 31stā¦ the Gods were kind, the rain poured like a river
The judge Ravi Kapoor gave Kareem and Taruni exactly 12 minutes between two hearings
She stated her case without tears
He grunted and sifted through the stack of pages
āBeta aap unke daughter ho?ā he mumbled looking at her removing his glasses
āYes Sirā
āHmmā
Kareem explained moreā¦.
They were asked to wait outside, and just like any legal process around 9 PM at night a clerk from the judgeās office found Kareem and Taruni by a tea stall outside and handed them a signed order
The demolishment had been stayed for two months
She collapsed to the ground in tears, Kareem Seth dropped her off at Tusharās house, ate dinner and left
Her mother cried with her, so did Tushar
He offered to go sleep at the store
Pallavi his wife agreed
Taruni reluctantly slept well the whole night after sending the image of the order with the link to every relevant website to Ajit Singh, Sharma-Purohit, and the generic email ID of Towers Partners
Pradyut got in his car and started driving toward Chandigarh
He was expected to be in person at 2 PM to over see the demolotion after a quick ceremony tomorrow
But he started driving at 2 AM
Furious with Taruni Bhushan
Nisha, do we get treat coz of your long weekend? Or would you be going for some weekend trip and we have to wait till you are back?
What a strong person Taruni is! And if Pradyut didn't know till now, he'll now realise it is not over till Taruni says it is over! š
She knows she is fighting a losing battle but is still keeping some hope in her.
