Avery had been sitting under the shower in the bathroom from last two hours. Coldwater was flowing through every inch of her body. Her body, her clothes were completely wet. She had rubbed her body very hard to separate the touch of those two men.

Her body had turned red due to rubbing and there were bruises on her body in many places. Her fare cheeks had scars because of her nails that were completely bloody. Her eyes was swollen. Her lips were trembling.

Even after talking to Clara and watching the video footage, she had a little sceptical. Somewhere she thought Clara was lying and that's why she checked up once again before coming back to the mansion. But her bad luck was her side and her report was positive again.

Her heart already ached. But it became even more when she returned to the mansion. Her pain was exacerbated when she saw Alex's celebration.

Sitting in the bathroom, he was now thinking about Clara's advice. Because she knew how terrible Alex was and she had no guarantee for what he would do when he found out about her pregnancy. She had already turned down Clara's offer but now she was thinking about her offer. Because she had no other choice.

The worst thing for her was, Clara had Alex's baby in her womb and she didn't even know whose baby was in her womb.

Just like life was playing a cruel game with her.

She remembered the conversation between her and Clara.

FLASHBACK

"I just want to help you."

"What is Your reason for helping me."

" Your miserable condition. There is no doubt that I hate you. And in your case there is nothing different. I know you hate me. I also know that no matter how badly Alex treats you, your love for him does not decrease. You loved him more than you loved yourself."

" How you know that I still love him."

"Avery your eyes. The way you look at him. The love for him is clear in your eyes. And the sadness about not loving you is clear in your eyes."

"..." Avery said nothing because everything Clara was saying true.

"Avery I feel more pity for your pure soul that is trapped in Alex's trap. Do you know why Alex married you?"

"No."

"Just for the land."

"What?"

"Yes, Alex wants the area where your mother's house is right now. Other CEOs are also eyeing on that place. I don't know what's special about that area. I told Alex many times to give up on that location but he never listened to me. He even ruined your life for that area."

"What is connection between me and that area."

"He needs your mother's signature for that place."

"What?"

" He knew that your mother would not sign for that place because there are other people's houses besides your mother's house. And that's why he held you in his hand. That's why he did not marry me but marry you. Because of that I hate you."

Avery couldn't believe that a multi-billionaire person could be so cruel just for a piece of land.

"What should I do now." Avery never dreamed that she would seek advice from Clara.

"Get away from him."

"He won't let me go. And I can't even imagine what he would do with my mother and my brother if I left him."

" What do you think?" If you stay with him, he will not harm your mother and brother. Have you ever think, what would happen if he found out that you have been raped and so you are pregnant?" Avery panicked.

"Avery, He doesn't love you, but he doesn't like to be touched by another man. You are his wife only for name but still you are his wife, you are holding his name."

"How you know all this?"

"He loves me and everyone know that we tell everything to the person we love."

"You are right" Avery said thin voice. "But how did you know that day my r .... Oh God, I can't even take this word out of my mouth."

"I found you that day. You were unconscious so I told Alex. The doctor told me when we both took you to the hospital. I told the doctor not to tell anyone. Because I am also a woman." Whenever the word 'rape' came out of Clara's mouth, Avery felt that the earth should swallow her.

"I can help you get out of this situation."

" How?" Clara placed a paper bunch in her hand and tells her to read. Avery's mouth stays wide open as she reads that paper bunch.

"I can't do this." Destiny was already played a dirty game with her and now this Clara. How can she?

" I don't force you. But if you want to get out of all this mess, call me tomorrow morning."

FLASHBACK END

...

Avery didn't know when she fainted in the bathroom, while thinking about Clara's words. When Avery opened her eyes, the sun had already risen. She was on her bed and her clothes had already changed. She got up and called Clara.

"I agree with you."

"Okay. I'll send you an address. Reach that address in two hours. And yes, don't bring anything with you."

"Hmmm.. Okay."

Avery ended up her morning routine and went to see Mrs. Kim. When she asked Mrs. Kim about who took her out of the bathroom and who changed her clothes. Mrs. Kim told her that she did it all herself. After talking to Mrs. Kim, Avery left the mansion to meet Clara.

...

It had been two days since Avery had disappeared, but Alex still didn't get any information know anything about her. He had combed whole country. He was sitting on his chair in his office. Clara was sitting in front of him. Seeing the anger on his face, she did not dare to say anything.

That's when his assistant came in. "S....Sir" Words were not coming out of Ethan's trembling lips.

"Speak Ethan." Alex shouted and Ethan's train started non-stop.

"Sir, there there is a dead body in the local hospital. The face of the dead body is not recognisable but it is speculated that the dead body may be sister Avery's"

"WHAT?"

...

Local Hospital

Ethan put the report in Alex's hand with his trembling hand. He had already seen the report. There were tears in his eyes. This is the first time since he started working with Alex that he has done any work without Alex's permission. Alex opened the report. After opening the report these six words came out of his mouth. "Rest in peace my little wife." Avery was dead.

...

It was ten o'clock in the morning. The sun was shining. In front of the big mirror, a beautiful girl was sitting in a bright red lehenga. She was a bride.

Her dream was to have an Indian wedding. Which was today but still she was not happy. Because she did not love the person she was going to marry. And the person she loved she was far away from him. She had no hope that the man would come for her. She was missing him so much. There were tears in her beautiful eyes and his name was on her lips.

"Alex, I miss you so much." She was missing Alex Because she was his wife Avery. It was fifteen days since Avery's fake death. She had listened to Clara's words to save her family from Alex. She had fully supported Clara's plan for her own fake death. She had been living in an Ashram in a small village in India from last fifteen days.

She had changed her name. The renaming was also a part of their plan. She knew Hindi very well so no one suspected her. In those fifteen days, she had missed all the people she had left behind. There was not a day in these fifteen days that she did not cry. In these fifteen days, she had understood what motherhood is. She herself was an unopened flower. But still, there was another life in her womb.

The day before, everything was fine until six o'clock in the evening. But her interaction with Raghav Thakur at six o'clock changed everything. Her life took a U-turn.

Raghav saw her in the market for the first time and fell in love with her.

Raghav had asked her for marriage in the morning which she had rejected. But she had to accept the demand when Raghav threatened her with a five-year-old child.

Since Raghav was a big gangster, no one could raise a voice against him. The police were also scared of him

Avery was lost in thought when suddenly a voice came from behind which brought her back to normal.

"Are you ready " It was Raghav's sister Rina Thakur who used to be his partner in everything? Avery turned her face. "Please listen to me. I can't do this. I am already married." Avery began to plead with her.

"Shhhuuu. Just shut up little girl. My brother doesn't care if you married or not. He is the King here. Here only his will prevails."
