"Because...Oh, Yeah... Sorry. Guys, Some introductions are pending. This is Khushi's Sister-in-law. Her brother's wife. Dr. Ashima Diwan." Arnav Introduced
"But... Khushi is a Gupta" AnjalI said confused
"First, She is a Raizada! She WAS a gupta. That's because when Garima Gupta adopted her, she chose to change her surname. Garima aunty is Khushi's Masi" Arnav explained
"So... She's is an orphan?" Anjali said in an edgy voice
"So are we... What's wrong with that??" Arnav said growing impatient
"But how come we never heard about her family, Or the fact that she has a brother??" Anjali asked
"Blame the fact that you never tried to initiate a proper conversation with her. You were way too preoccupied with your husband. And your perfect little universe where everyone is happy" Arnav supplied
Anjali looked at him shocked
"Khushi has a brother who's name is Arjun Diwaan. They were settled in London. Now they're here because of business " Arnav explained
"Arnav... Bhai Khushiji kaisi hain?(How is Khushiji?)" Akash asked entering the scene
"She's fine Aakash" Arnav said
"Who had mentioned Arjun Diwan?"
"Me... He's Khushi's brother" Said Arnav said and explained everything.
"Are you by any chance talking about the multibillionaire Arjun Diwan? Isn't he the owner of DREAM DESIGNS? The biggest fashion-house of London?" Akash asked
"No... That must be som-" Anjali said but was interrupted
"Yes, The Multibillionaire Arjun Diwan. But he's not the owner of DREAM DESIGNS. That's Khushi's establishment. Though it comes under Diwan group... But Dream Designs and Dream Textiles are Khushi's companies... It's not the biggest fashion house in London" Arnav said
Anjali smiled sarcastically
"But it's the biggest fashion house in the whole world... She, My Khushi Rules the Fashion universe" Arnav completed with a proud smile

The smile on Anjali's face wiped in an instance
"What!!!" All except Arnav and Ashima exclaimed shocked
"Ashu Di.. This is going to take time... Would you mind going upstairs... So that I can explain everything to my sister and family" Arnav whispered to Ashima
Ashima nodded
"We're not shutting you out Di... Please don't be " Arnav explained
"Didn't even occur to me Arnav... Its Okay" Ashima said and went upstairs
"Haan... She's the owner of DREAM DESIGNS. So what?? Can't she be the owner of a fashion house?" Arnav was confused. But then he remembered Di's words "She's a bloody Gold-digger and nothing more than that"
"But Bhai... That's Dream Designs, It's more than huge" Akash said
"I know that Akash... What's there to be surprised for?" Arnav asked
"B-bhai... Dream Designs is our biggest overseas investor... It's the reason we're living overseas! How come I never knew?" Akash asked
"She told you once... When she reached India for Payal's wedding... Though she twisted her words really cleverly... But you did give her your opinion about Dream Designs... I thought you caught up" Arnav said
Akash was shocked, He never realized that Khushi was indeed the owner of DD
"So... Khushi ji.. Is the... owner... owner of... Dream... Designs, Wow!! And SHE IS in a tie up with AR?" Akash asked
"Tie Up? I thought she dropped the plan? I thought she was doing it individually" Arnav said
"Every company needs some support in the beginning bhai... She needs to understand the market first Right?" Akash said
"She knows the market more than me Akash, Every market research of AR in it's initial days was made by her... She's the Backbone of AR if you didn't know" Arnav said
"Well then she's still acting like one... The tie up rocketed our profits, She gave away the Malhotra Deal, Her PR said she's not into this, We bagged that deal because she didn't compete, You know I didn't see a reason why anyone would let go of such a fantastic offer, But she did... She just pulled AR out of an impending disaster" Akash said

"Yeah, 1 month back, We were losing stocks... Damn Raizada!! Damn!! She took the biggest risk of her life, To save you... Your company, And you didn't even acknowledge it." Arnav said cursing himself
"Arnav..." Anjali barely whispered
"She's just 8 months old in India, Dream Designs could collapse... But she didn't care, And you said she's a gold-digger, Di... Open your eyes! Everything isn't about money and fame! She owns the Fashion world Di... And she's still with me, She's more powerful than the Mighty ASR Di... And still, She bears with my every tantrums... My every rudeness... I made her go through hell di... But she stood by my side... Like a rigid support" Arnav said
"Arnav... Chote"
"You know what Di?? She is an angel... You and me... We can't even match up to her qualities. I can't thank God enough for sending her into my life" Arnav said
"Oh, Really" Anjali muttered
"First thing... She knows how to mould herself according to the situation... Saamne waale ko pehli nazar mein judge karne nahi baith jaati woh! Aur agar koi opinion banati bhi hai... Toh sach jhoot ka pata lagne par woh opinion change bhi karti hai... Stubborn nahi hai (She doesn't judge people on the first meeting itself, Even if she does make an opinion about someone, It can change with changed situations... She's not stubborn)" Arnav said
Anjali stared at him shocked. Did he just, Indirectly or directly chided her
Yes he did!!-Vinny
"Anyway... I should probably go... Ashima Di must be waiting
