Shraddha stared at Tara with anger as she shook her head. She felt tears burning her eyes feeling so humiliated after her words. How dare she speak to her this way? She wasn't like this. Where was that girl who was scared to even go with Arjun and now she was answering back to her.

She moved out of the room while Tara sighed. Was she right in answering back? She don't know she shouldn't actually let her anger take over her. She thought before moving downstairs to say sorry to Shraddha. Whatever she did it wasn't her place to taunt her mother-in-law because no matter how ill she treated her husband, she gave birth to him.

She reached downstairs only to find Shraddha crying in front of Aayat, Roshni and Aadya.

"Ma", she called only for Shraddha to look at her.

"I am sorry, Tara for asking too much from you", Shraddha spoke in a broken voice making Tara look at her in confusion. What did she mean?

"What happened, Bhabhi?", Roshni asked her not understanding why she was crying.

"No Roshni it's my mistake that I want to love my son and asked help from Tara for it. After all, it's not her responsibility to bring back my son to me after everything I did", Shraddha cried this time making Tara frown. Why was she making such a big issue of it?

It was her who spoke ill to her, she just answered her in her own language.

"Ma, You never said any such thing to me", Tara told her not understanding what was actually going on.

"Of course, Tara beta, I am understanding I am wrong here. Please forgive me", Shraddha said joining her hands in front of Tara making Tara shake her head before holding her hands.

"Ma, what are you doing? There is no need of doing such things", Tara spoke till that point male members also came there hearing the sounds.

"It is needed, Tara", Shraddha spoke wiping her tears.

"What happened, Shraddha? Will you tell us?", Aadhish asked not understanding what was wrong with her. Why was she crying like this?

"Nothing, Aadhi. I just asked Tara to help me with Arjun but she can't do that", Shraddha said making Tara's eyes widen as she stare at her with shock. She never said any such thing.

"Ma, Why are you saying this? I never said that. I just said", Tara was speaking when Shraddha interrupted her.

"You just said that I am the one who pushed him away from me, you don't care about it", Shraddha said making Tara gasp. She never said any such thing.

"No Ma, I just said that you can't ask me to leave him and I am not going to leave him as well", Tara tried to justify her words but Shraddha just shook her head.

"I know Tara it's me only who behaved wrongly with you", Shraddha spoke making Tara shake her head.

"Ma why are you behaving like I am the wrong one here. You were the one who was telling me how I should know who is in authority", Tara this time spoke in a higher tone because Shraddha wasn't letting her speak because of her crying and soon a tight slap landed on her cheek making her shout.

Her eyes got teary as she met her mother's angry face. Her finger's moved to cup her face which was burning by the sensation.

"Mumma", She whispered not understanding why she was slapped.

"I never thought you would be behaving like this, Tara", Her mother spoke shaking her head holding her elbow making Tara gulp.

"But Mumma", Tara tried to justify when her mother pushed her in front of her mother-in-law.

"Say Sorry", she spoke making Tara stare at her in shock.

"Mumma, let her explain", Dinesh tried to speak when his mother showed her palm to him indicating him to stop.

"Say sorry, Tara", She shouted making Tara shiver. Why would she say sorry when she did nothing wrong? She was a victim here but why her mother slapped her. She didn't even ask her what was going on but chose to slap her.

"Tara", her mother called her sternly making her shake her head immediately. Her father always taught her not to say sorry for something she never did than why would she say sorry. Her mother stared at her in shock before pulling her in front of her slapping her on her left cheek this time.

"Mumma, what are you doing?", Dinesh tried to speak in between till that time even Nagesh came back after parking his car and was shocked to see his wife slapping his daughter again and again.

"What are you doing?", Nagesh shouted at his wife pulling his daughter away from her hiding Tara's face in his chest as she sobbed.

"Please tell her to ask sorry from Shraddha", Her mother told Nagesh as Tara shook her head hiding her face in her father's chest.

"Tara, I am telling you last time", She yelled moving to hold her elbow when she was stopped by a certain hand. She looked up to find Arjun in between looking at her calmly before pulling Tara. He could hear her crying but when her face came in his view, he only saw red.

Her face was swollen with the corner of her lips lightly bleeding. Her cheeks were covered with tears and finger prints as she cried like a baby.

"Arjun", Shraddha tried to speak knowing everything turned in a wrong direction when Arjun showed his finger to her asking her to stop.

"Baby", he called softly as she breathed harshly before pushing him away moving in her father's arms. She didn't want him to see her in this condition.

"Tara tell Papa what happened?", Nagesh asked as Dinesh moved closer to his sister who spoke in a small voice which was only audible for her father, brother and husband to hear who were listening her patiently. After hearing everything, Nagesh's eyes moved to look at Shraddha as he nodded his head before putting his hand on his daughter's head indicating that he was with her.

Arjun looked at his mother with hatred this time knowing how can he behave like this with his baby.

"Arjun", Shraddha tried to speak but this time she was stopped by Nagesh who looked like a wounded lion whose cub was hurt because of the lady in front of him.

"Shraddha Ji, I wish to tell you that Tara is having a good family to take care of her. She is not somebody you picked up from the road and can treat the way you want to treat. Her father is still alive", Nagesh spoke as Aadhish fisted his hands knowing what was to come. He never saw his friend this angry.

"Please don't", When Tara's mother spoke he showed her his finger indicating her to keep her mouth shut. She could see the anger in his eyes which she never saw before.

"What were you saying that you can make Arjun leave my daughter? Is it that easy for you?", Nagesh spoke which made Shraddha look down.

"I want you to remember the day when you came to my house asking for her hand. You said you would treat her like your own daughter. This is how you treat the daughters of your house", he spoke everything calmly but yelled at the end.

"If that is so, I am so thankful this house is not having any daughters", Nagesh spoke making everybody look down for a moment.

"Tara wasn't born with a silver spoon but she didn't get any less in her life. Whatever she asked no matter how expensive is it, she got it without any delay. She was the light of my house and I gave that light to you and this is how you treat her. Mrs. Shraddha Khurana, she is not a thing that you could throw away from your son's life", Nagesh spoke before looking at his wife.

"And you, shame on you. I knew you had this traditional mind set but behaving this way with your own daughter without even knowing anything. I just can't believe it", Nagesh spoke moving back to hold his daughter when Arjun looked at his mother and than every family member with anger filled eyes.

"Mumma, I thought she is safe with you around", Arjun spoke looking at Roshni who was not even understanding what was going on.

"Arjun, I don't know beta what happened. She just went to her room and than Bhabhi came down crying and than her mother just started slapping her. I didn't get time to understand anything", Roshni spoke not knowing what to do.

"You aren't happy ruining my childhood that you want to ruin my whole life now", Arjun asked his mother who looked at him with teary eyes.

"Arjun, I also want my son. Till what time will you continue hating me", Shraddha asked in a broken voice.

"You deserve it, Mrs. Khurana. You think after this drama you started you would ever be able to get the right position in my life", Arjun asked his mother who just shook her head.

"Arjun, just one mistake I did in my life leaving you that night and I am regretting it till date", Shraddha spoke finally.

"From where this class thing came?", Arjun asked as this time Dinesh looked at the lady in front of him. Shraddha remain silent to his words.

"I am so sorry to say this, Aunty. But the day you came to our place, you spoke about this class thing. Let me put it clear in front of you, price of the shares of my company is thrice the price of the shares of your family business, Maheshwari right. We are no where less than you and if you had so much problem after class and everything you should've not came up with this proposal", Dinesh spoke before looking at his mother.

"This was what I was talking about all along. Tara is too young to get married. This age was for her to make new friends, her career, see the world but here she is trying to manage these relationships. You all literally burned her childhood with responsibilities", Dinesh spoke looking at his little sister who was still crying.

"It's enough let's go Tara", Nagesh held her hand ready to leave with his daughter. If it wasn't for the grand celebration of twins birthday, he won't have ever known about all this.

"Nagesh think twice. Arjun and Tara are not even staying here. They are happy together", Aadhish spoke finally making Nagesh look at his daughter who was just looking down.

"Whatever happened here today, I don't think my daughter will ever be able to hold her head high here anymore", he spoke. Arjun held Tara's hand making her look at him.

"Nobody in this world can make her bow her head. She is my wife and she is not going anywhere", Arjun spoke looking in Tara's eyes which were teary all along, her eyes immediately moved downwards.

"Baby, you don't have to", he was speaking cupping her face when he frowned. He touched her forehead and than her neck making his eyes widen.

"Baby?", he called as she closed her eyes falling in his arms making him hold her tight in his arms.

"Tara? Baby?", He called her holding her close to him before shouting loudly.

"Somebody call the doctor", he told as Dinesh immediately moved out to call his family doctor. Her mother tried to come close to her when Nagesh held her behind.

"Don't. Not right now", he told her sternly before moving to check on his daughter whose face was pale. Arjun picked her up in his arms before moving to his car to get her to the hospital. His face showed how much he cared for her. Her family followed them as Aadhish looked at his wife in anger before holding her elbow making her look at him.

"In your thirst to get your son back you pushed him further away from yourself. Why don't you just understand this simple thing. Tara is Arjun's life. She is the sole reason of his happiness. If they got separated, Arjun won't be able to live happily. He would destroy himself from his own hands and than you continue asking him to come back but nothing would be same anymore. Why do you always have to act so dumb and wrong?", Aadhish shouted before moving out to check up on his daughter-in-law. He don't want his son to suffer more than he already did.
