As they reached home, Varshini ran towards Malathi Aunty, exclaiming in delight, "What a surprise! I missed you so much, Aunty!" She gave her a warm hug. Nalini smiled at the scene and said, "Go get freshened up, Varshini and Rooh."

As they headed to their room, Vihaan said, "Mom, I have some work. I'll be back in an hour. Love you, bye," and left.

After Vihaan departed, Malathi held Nalini's hand and said, "Nalini, I wanted Vihaan to marry Varshini." Nalini refused, but Malathi persisted, "You know how much Vihaan's father loved Varshini, and it was his last wish for them to get married."

Saying this Malathi's eyes moistened and Nalini replied, "But we're not on the same level as your family, and I don't know what Varshini thinks." Malathi said, "What we have today is all because of you. Please, I want to fulfill this wish. Don't let me die with guilt."

Nalini's expression softened, and she agreed to consider the proposal, saying, "I'll talk to Varshini, but I won't force her." Malathi nodded and left.

Nalini went to Varshini's room and discussed the marriage proposal with her. Varshini hesitated, unsure of what to say. Nalini understood her daughter's dilemma and said, "It's okay, Varshu. Take your time and let me know."

As Nalini left, Varshini's thoughts drifted to Karthik. "Why would I think about him?" she mumbled to herself, trying to shake off the distraction. She immersed herself in her phone to clear her mind.

After an hour, Rooh came and sat beside Varshini. "Karthik is so handsome, right? And I don't think he's that rude," Rooh said.

Varshini shared the conversation about the marriage proposal with Rooh "What are you going to say?" Rooh asked.

"I don't know," Varshini replied. "I don't love him, but I don't hate him either. Mom likes him a lot, so maybe I'll consider it."

Rooh looked at Varshini with concern. "You can't marry someone just because Aunty likes him. Do what your heart says."

Karthik's POV

After reaching his office, Karthik called Ajay and demanded, "I told you to get every detail about her. Didn't I ? ".

Ajay looked intimidated and replied, "Yes, I gave you all the details."

Karthik's anger escalated. "Then why the fuck is Vihaan with her?"

He stepped closer to Ajay, his voice low and menacing. "Find out everything about the relationship between Vihaan and Varshini. Now."Ajay nodded hastily and left.

Vihaan's POV

Vihaan found Karthik's intentions with Varshini and learned about the product launch event. He also found out that Karthik had canceled contracts with all the popular flower agencies to work exclusively with Varshini.

Then Malathi came to Vihaan's room and talked about the proposed marriage, a sinister smile spread across his face. "I'm more than happy to marry Varshini," he said. "In fact, I've always loved her."

Malathi's face lit up with joy, and she left the room. Vihaan's smile grew wider as he muttered to himself, "I'm going to snatch your love," and he let out a maniacal laugh.
