Chapter 25: chapter 25

---Yashvi was furious. She couldn’t understand why Inaya had given up so much for someone like Neil. It just didn’t make sense. The entertainment industry was full of temporary flings – most people just wanted one night of fun and acted like strangers the next day. True love? It was a joke. And here was Inaya, throwing herself into something like that?Pacing back and forth at Inaya’s old flat in Mumbai, Yashvi was muttering curses under her breath. Her anger was boiling over when Ritik Malhotra, Atharv's assistant finally arrived at the door.“If you want to see Miss Inaya, come with me,” Ritik said calmly.Yashvi narrowed her eyes. She didn’t recognize this man and didn’t like his tone either. Without warning, she raised her foot and gave him a solid kick.“If anything happens to my Inaya, I swear I’ll paralyze both you and your boss!”Ritik clutched his side in pain, trying to fix his perfectly styled hair. He winced, “Madam, let's not discuss breaking bones right now. Just get in the car, please.”With a huff, Yashvi gave him a sharp glare and got into the car. On the way, she kept throwing sarcastic comments and threats his way, even pulling the ‘you-don’t-know-her-background’ card. Honestly, all that was missing was a knife pointed at his throat.But when the car entered an elite gated society, Yashvi finally fell silent.The board read *Sky Regency*, one of the most premium landmarks in all of Mumbai. Only 30 families lived here – all top of the top. Even a random resident in this area could silence the media with one phone call.“Yeh...yeh...your boss is who, exactly?” Yashvi asked, her voice shaking now.“You’ll find out in a minute,” Ritik replied, visibly annoyed.Her heartbeat raced as the car stopped in front of a stunning Spanish-style villa with a huge fountain out front. She was taken inside, where everything screamed class – chandeliers, high ceilings, imported furniture.And there, sitting calmly on the plush white sofa, was Inaya. She wore simple white home clothes and no makeup, but still looked effortlessly gorgeous.Yashvi rushed up to her, whispering harshly, “Inaya, what is this? Don’t tell me you’ve gotten involved with some sugar daddy? Please tell me you didn’t sacrifice yourself just because of Neil!”Inaya smiled and pulled her onto the sofa beside her.“Yashvi, I need to tell you something... but promise you won’t get mad, okay?”“Tell me fast – don’t give me a heart attack!”“I’m married.”Yashvi froze.“What did you just say? MARRIED?! Kisse? Why would you mess with your future like this?”Just then, footsteps approached from upstairs. A tall, poised man appeared, walking with quiet confidence. He came up behind the sofa, bent down slightly and whispered something into Inaya’s ear, his voice filled with warmth. She smiled and nodded, “Okay, I’ll wrap up in half an hour.”Yashvi blinked in shock as the man walked away.“Was that... was that Atharv Singhania? CEO of AR Entertainment??”Inaya nodded, lips curved in amusement. “Yes. He’s my husband.”Yashvi’s jaw dropped. Then she yelped, “Inaya, pinch me! I must be dreaming!”Inaya chuckled and tugged her arm gently.“No yaar, are you serious? The actual Atharv Singhania? You married him?”“Hmm, I did.”There was a moment of silence, and then Yashvi exploded in excitement. “Arey wah! No wonder your news stayed on top and Neil couldn't control it, no matter how much money he spent! Inaya, what a masterstroke!”“You’ve made the best decision ever! Marrying trash like Neil would’ve been a disaster. But THIS? This is a proper comeback! AR Entertainment is leagues above Nova! Just imagine Neil’s face when he will finds out this...mazaa aa jayega!”---
