............"No... no, it's just a dream, but...!" Elara tried to shake off the lingering unease, but her eyes kept drifting back to the contract file on her desk, a tangible reminder of the recent conversation with Astrid.As she pondered the changes in her husband, a sudden shout from her sister Bella, and a knock on her door jolted her back to reality."Sister... Big Sis, knock... knock... come down, someone is here to meet you!" Bella's urgent voice echoed through the room."I'm coming... Right away!" Elara responded, her heart still racing from the remnants of her dream. She quickly made her way to the bathroom to freshen up before leaving her bedroom, her mind swirling with thoughts and emotions.After getting dressed, Elara descended the stairs and entered the hall. She saw her sister chatting and laughing with a young man, piquing her curiosity about the guest."Oh, Sis! You're here, come over... He's been waiting for you!" Bella waved at Elara and gestured for her to sit b
............"Um... Elara, I'm sorry if I ever caused you trouble because of my incompetence in the past. I apologize for any pain I may have caused you. As I'm leaving the city, I don't want there to be any bad blood between us. I hope we can still be friends like we were before," Aarav began, expressing his regret for his past mistakes. He knew all too well the scorn she might have faced because of him.Despite enduring humiliation and abuse from her friends and family, he didn't want to harbor any resentment.He had already cleared his heart of such feelings, now seeing them as mere clowns making a mockery of themselves."Huh... no, why are you apologizing? It should be me who needs to ask for your forgiveness," Elara said, her voice soft with regret. "It was my selfish wish that dragged you into the mud with me. How could I hold ill feelings for you?" She glanced at Aarav, a hint of sadness flickering in her eyes before she masked it behind a composed facade.Aarav felt a mix o
............"What brings you here, Mr. Veridian, to our humble home?" Allen's tone was filled with curiosity, his eyes studying Aarav intently. He couldn't fathom Aarav visiting without a purpose.In Allen's perception, Aarav didn't fit the mold of someone who made casual visits. He remained a mysterious presence, leaving them intrigued and unable to fully grasp his intentions."Nothing much, I thought I should pay you guys a visit as I am leaving this city indefinitely," Aarav replied in a soft tone, observing their surprised expressions."Huh... you mean, you are moving to another city?" Maya asked, her voice tinged with shock."Yeah, I am moving to another city along with my sister," Aarav confirmed, nodding."But... but... isn't this too sudden?" Maya muttered quietly before Allen intervened, stopping her from pressing for more details."So, Mr. Veridian, is there a problem in our city that you are moving out?" Allen asked, concerned that Aarav might have encountered some troubl
............"Ah... really? How did you find out?" Aarav nodded, but he was surprised because he hadn't told anyone about leaving the city, except for a few people."Forget that, when are you leaving and why? People here are concerned that they might have upset you and your sister!" Elder Bhagya asked, her tone filled with concern."Maybe tomorrow, and no... no one here has caused any trouble for me and my sister. Instead, you all have been very kind to us," Aarav said, shaking his head with a reassuring smile."Then why are you moving?" Elder Bhagya inquired."Well, Aria has recovered, so I was thinking about her education. I recently found out that my sister is very smart, so we're moving to a big city where she can attend a university with the best facilities," Sarah explained, her words reflecting Aarav's affection for his sister, making Elder Bhagya smile."Alright, everyone. Make some space. Aarav's leaving with a clear heart, so no need to worry. Just give your well wishes to
............"Wow, there are so many people ready to travel!" Aria exclaimed, her voice filled with excitement as she took in the bustling scene.As they settled into their seats after the passport and ticket check, Aarav, Aria, and Aeliana opted to wait together until it was time to board the plane."How much longer until our flight?" Aria asked eagerly, her impatience evident in her tone."Not much, just ten more minutes until our flight arrives," Aarav replied, glancing at the departure board."Aeliana, you really don't have to stay with us. You can go back to your duties," Aarav insisted, motioning towards the bustling airport."No, it's fine," Aeliana shook her head with a gentle smile, feeling a tug at her heart to savor a few more moments with her Lord before their departure. She cherished these precious moments in his company, knowing they would be apart for potentially months ahead.If it were just a few months ago, Aeliana wouldn't have believed that she could feel so atta
............"Mmmn," Aarav halted in his tracks, turning around to locate the source of the call."Who is this man? Do I know him?" Aarav muttered, observing a four-eyed man rushing towards him, trailed by security guards."Stop...wait...let me talk to Mr. Veridian, I meant no harm, please..." the man pleaded as the guards intercepted him, preventing him from reaching Aarav and pushing him to the ground."Mr. Veridian, do you remember me? It's me... we met at the Vasu Family Estate. I am Earl Hughes," he hurriedly addressed Aarav, hoping to jog his memory as Aarav regarded him with a puzzled expression."Oh, it's you. That arrogant prick!" Aarav's words cut through the air, causing Earl to wince at the harsh memory."Guards, I know this man. Don't worry, he won't cause any trouble. He's a reputable doctor. You can check his ID," Aarav assured the security guards, turning to them and urging them to verify Earl's identity before allowing him to go."Oh, he really is a doctor," one of t
............"Kyaaaa....Help...help, my grandpa, someone, Please...!" Aarav's attention snapped to a young lady standing beside the old man, her voice filled with panic as she called out for assistance."What...what...happened...!" The other passengers who were resting or chatting with each other, got startled and quickly turned their attention towards the source of the noise."Hey...calm down, Miss. What happened with the old man?" A few middle-aged men who were sitting nearby rushed over to help, trying to soothe the distressed young lady before asking about the old man's condition."I...I don't know, he's not waking up, and his body is shaking like crazy!" The young lady replied tearfully, her voice trembling with worry.Just then, three hostesses came running over, their faces filled with concern as they assessed the situation."Is he okay? What happened?" one of the hostesses asked, her voice filled with compassion as she knelt beside the old man, who seemed to be in distress."
............"Oh, please, do whatever you can!" the Captain urged, his voice tinged with desperation as he implored Aarav to intervene and help the old man.The Captain, anxious about any potential blame for the old man's fate staining his career, observed nervously.Meanwhile, Aarav made sure his sister was settled comfortably before turning his attention to the old man.He carefully checked his pulse using Divine Energy and looked into the old man's eyes for a bit.Then, Aarav placed his hand over the old man's heart and turned to the Captain, his expression grave."He's been poisoned, Captain," Aarav declared, his words sending a ripple of shock through the passengers. Some leaned in with heightened interest, sensing that there was more to the situation than met the eye."Poisoned? How could I have missed someone poisoning him when I've been sitting next to him this whole time?" The young lady looked at Aarav skeptically, doubting the validity of his claim.Aarav met her skeptica
