Pia knew that this mission would test her limits, but she was determined to see it through.
With a deep breath, she began preparing herself for the undercover operation as a dancer at the club. She came out of the washroom and got to her desk for work over the breaking of the Velvet Gang news, which got published on the blog of SecretZone News and saw the first comment over it by a reader, which was shocking: "This gang is a destroyer and danger for the future of the city for common people. I hope this time the police department takes serious action to eliminate them once and for all. Just read this news exposing the extent of their criminal activities. "
She also noticed comments of concern and mixed emotions typed, plus likes, just a few minutes after the article was posted. It was clear that the Velvet Chase Gang's activities had struck a nerve with the community and she knew that this story would continue to develop in the coming days.
On the other side, in seawater a man on a yacht was smoking and holding a gun, pointing towards a wounded guy who was pleading for life. The man on the yacht seemed unfazed by the pleas for mercy, his expression cold and calculating. The situation on the water was escalating quickly with no sign of a peaceful resolution in sight.
The man fires at him and throws the gun towards his assistant, saying, "Take care of the body; we need to make sure there are no loose ends." The assistant nodded his head silently knowing that they had to clean up the mess before anyone found out about their involvement in the Velvet Gang's activities.
It was Harish a famous goon of the city and he saw his right hand, Bittu coming running towards him holding a tablet. Harsh asked him as he came gasping towards him with a smiling evil feel, "What happened? Did Bittu get lost in business, or did your wife run away again with someone?"
He laughs but as Bittu says with tension showing, "Bhai, see this news? We just a month ago dealt with the Velvet Chase Gang for smuggling antiques. This reporter seems to have the guts to publish this post, as we create an illegal site for selling antiques with this gang. This reporter is anonymous and the SecretZone News channel always trending news, but this news is putting us in serious trouble. We need to figure out a way to handle this situation before it escalates further." Harsh's smile quickly faded as he realized the gravity of the situation and started brainstorming possible solutions with Bittu.
At the SecretZone News office, Vihan saw Roma in tension. Vihan walks towards her and asks, "Roma, what happened?" Roma saw him and hugged him tightly; she cried badly. Vihan got worried and patted her back, asking her to calm down and tell him what was wrong. Roma finally composed herself and said wiping the tears, "Vihan Sir, I'm actually sorry for this hug."
Vihan makes her sit on a chair in her cabin and then asks, "What's going on, Roma? You can tell me anything." Roma takes a deep breath and begins to explain the situation that had been troubling her. She says with a sobbing voice, "Sir, my father just had an accident, and my mother told me about the operation immediately. The doctor gave only two hours to make a decision, but ten lakh for the operation is required and I don't have that much."
Vihan listens attentively, then he says signing a check and giving it to her, "Don't worry, Roma. I'll take care of the expenses for your father's operation. Family comes first, always." Roma is overwhelmed with gratitude and thanks Vihan profusely for his generosity and support during her difficult time. She says by ignoring the check, "You're really important to me and yes, we are engaged, but I don't want your money, as your support is more than enough for me."
Vihan smiles warmly and reassures Roma, "I understand, Roma. Your family is mine too. We will get through this together. Just focus on your father's recovery, and I'll handle everything else." Roma's eyes fill with tears of relief as she hugs Vihan tightly feeling grateful for his unwavering support and love.
Pia came to ask further what to do but seeing them embrace, she quietly stepped back knowing that Roma and Vihan needed this moment together. She decides to give them space and time to comfort each other silently offering her own support from a distance.
Pia came back to her desk and said in her mind with a happy feeling, "Vihan, I am happy you have moved on but still not accepted Roma from the heart, it seems. I hope one day will come when you again can open your heart fully to her."
She smiles to herself, grateful for the love and understanding that surrounds her in the office. Vihan came to her cabin and saw her smile on her face, then said, "Oh, thinking again to destroy my happiness seems but this no harm I will accept or Roma will face. My father is an idiot again on the same mission to catch criminals with your help, which is not good. If this news creates a problem for me, Pia. Then you have to pay for a precious thing that you never thought of."
Pia walks towards him and says with sadness, "I already lost most precious essences, as my own best friend thinks I am an enemy of his life. I never wanted to think about telling the truth to you, but I feel soon you will know the truth, and then your hatred will change to understanding and forgiveness. Please don't let your anger and misunderstanding ruin our friendship." Pia's eyes filled with tears as she pleaded with him to trust her. She hoped that their friendship would withstand this difficult moment and that he would eventually see the truth.
Vihan sees the truth in her eyes but ignores it, as he feels it's a betrayal too deep to forgive. He turns away, unable to process the possibility that his best friend could have deceived him for so long. Pia watches him go heartbroken but hopeful that time will heal the wounds between them.
At Harsh's office, Harsh saw Arjun come with Piyush to surprise him saying, "Harsh, my friend today we will go to the club for the celebration of my song in which I dance in that movie that broke records on the online channel. Harsh yaar your direction in that movie was truly outstanding." Harsh smiles grateful for the recognition from his friend, but a pang of guilt lingers in his heart as he remembers the secret he's been keeping from Arjun about his involvement in the movie's success. Arjun asked him what happened seeing his reaction.
Piyush saw them with a happy smile as they sat on a chair scrolling on a mobile. Harsh hesitates unsure of how to respond to Arjun's question without revealing the truth. Piyush notices the tension and quickly changes the subject diverting attention away from Harsh's internal struggle.
