CHAPTER 96
Mohan is shocked to hear his words, and the biggest thing is that Jagdish is not ready to accept that the person he is talking to or who is trying to blackmail him is not Shivam.
"This is not an illusion; I talked to him. He is Shivam."
Mohan is in deep thought. Jagdish looks toward the front, where Mayil and Mrityunjay are standing, while hiding from Mohan's sharp gaze. Looking at them, he starts talking to Mohan continuously.
"He is Shivam; only he has the motive to kill me... He is the one.... I am afraid... Mahi is my daughter; he can't take her away.... Shivam will kill me."
Mohan is getting very upset because of his constant shouting, and seeing all this, Mrityunjay starts smiling as he knows what Jagdish is doing, and suddenly, as Mohan loses his temper, he immediately tells him.
"He can't be Shivam... We killed him many years ago.... Shivam has died. "
This is the only thing they want to listen to here. Jagdish folded his arm across his chest and asked.
"What do you mean by we?"
Mohan suddenly realizes that he has said something very wrong, and the way Jagdish is looking at him here, he can't even stand his gaze. He immediately comes and sits in front of him and tells him.
"Jagdish look, my son... It is not like that."
"Then... what it is... You knew very well that Sweta is very much in love with Shivam, and she wants to marry him. Then how did you make such a big mistake? Have you not seen that girl's condition? .... She was searching for him everywhere...."
"She is crazy... She was absolutely stupid; she didn't know anything. How could she fall in love with any guy, or Shivam? The biggest mistake she made was that she was about to become the mother of Bastard Shivam's child. How did he do that? I couldn't punish that girl because she was my blood. I could not permit the man who tried to make her pregnant with his tainted blood to continue living; she has developed feelings for trash, notwithstanding my longstanding determination that she would solely enter into matrimony with you. You know that I have always considered you my son, but I have loved you more than Sweta, and she was cheating on you for the boy who was living on your favors."
Hearing his words, Mayil is also very angry, and Jagdish also sees Mayil coming out of there. But Mrityunjay holds her tightly in his arms, as there are many things he needs to know, including whether Mayil will go there and ruin everything. Jagdish angrily shouts at Mohan loudly.
"Cheating….. Your mind is completely messed up. Cheating would have happened when I loved her or she loved me. We both did not love each other. We were just friends. She was in love with Shivam, and I was in love with Sunaina."
After listening to Jagdish, it was as if Mohan had completely lost his remaining balance of mind. Mohan shakes his shoulders well in anger and says,.
"How can you both decide this? Prakash said that you are my son and will always be mine. If you had married someone else, that girl would have snatched you from me. How could I let this happen? You are my son. I have considered you my son since childhood and have loved you like my own son. How could I see you doing anything wrong? I raised my daughter with love so that she could become the bride of your house. Become your perfect wife, who will only love you. I was making her a good wife for my son."
"Are you mad?" What are you saying? Are you even listening to yourself?"
"Yes, I am listening... Yes, I am mad... You and no one else will be able to understand my point or the fact that I have loved you so much. I can do anything for you, son. You are my son; you were born somewhere else... You are my only child, and you will always be mine. If I have to destroy the whole world for you, I will do that too. If anything wrong happens in your life, I will remove all those things and that person. Whoever it is, whether it is Sunaina, Shivam, Mahi, or your father,... Well, that day Sweta died after falling from the stairs... Otherwise, I would have killed her myself because she was about to tell you the whole truth."
"What do you mean by this? And why do you say this about my father? What Sweta listened to..."
Mohan feels as if his tongue is slipping now and again. Mohan had no idea that since the birth of Jagdish, he had developed an obsession that he was his own son and that he was just born somewhere else. And he did not want to come out of his web of illusion because it had completely captured him. Often, our mind puts us in a situation where we are not ready to listen to anything from anyone else. And in such a trap of our illusion, we never refrain from harming anyone, but we have realized that the person in front of us "Person is only mine, I can do anything just to keep him with me." He doesn't, and he keeps the person forceful while making mistakes after mistakes.
He is telling Jagdish many things that can be harmful to him, so he sits beside him, lovingly holds his hand, and tells him.
"Listen, son. Try to understand... I love you... And all these people together wanted to take you away from me. That's why all this happened. I didn't want to kill anyone, but I did it by mistake because these people would have taken you away from me."
(AUTHOR'S NOTE: If the obsession with something goes out of bounds, then the person in front feels right about everything he has done, and the obsession can happen with anyone. Mohan also had a great desire to call Jagdish his son, due to which he did not even know when this desire turned into his obsession.)
Jagdish immediately looks at Mrityunjay, who can understand very well what he is pointing at. He is telling him to proceed with the conversation very calmly so that everything can be understood easily, and Mohan himself should tell the whole truth on his own.
"Dad, what are you saying? Why do you think I don't understand you? I am your son... But what are you saying? First, you tell me everything comfortably, because I can't understand anything. I know that you love me very much, and no one can love me more than you, the man who forgets his daughter and loves her husband like his son—more than his biological kid. How can a person love someone more than that? You love me so much that maybe even my father has not done this much for me."
Mohan smiles and calms down; he is smiling like he gets whatever he wants from age. Jagdish didn't want to lose the chance to speak.
"You are saying that you killed Shivam, but how can this happen? Shivam ran away with our money, right?"
Mohan is overjoyed that Jagdish is treating him as his father, and at this time he is sitting comfortably by his side and loves to hear he considers him his father. So he becomes very confident and starts telling him everything very comfortably.
"It was all a false story. I came to know that Sweta and Shivam have started liking each other. I could not let this happen because I had to get Shweta married only to you; otherwise, you would have married someone else, and she would come between us. Shivam spoke to me on the phone; he wanted to talk to me in person with his family... I knew what he wanted to say. So I asked him to come to my house to do whatever he wanted to talk to me about. He said that he wanted to come to my house with his parents as soon as possible, so I knew what the matter was, but when he told me that Sweta was going to be the mother of his child, I lost my temper. I immediately called him to my house and called your father before that. Because he was the only person who could help me... I told him how Shivam is following Sweta and wants to defame her around the world by blackmailing her with Jagdish's private photos. Just so you know, your father loved Sweta exactly like his daughter and considered her his daughter-in-law already. He got very angry. It was his plan to give leave to all the servants of the house, and together we will kill Shivam today because anyone who tries to defame us cannot survive. He himself came to the house with Shivam as soon as Shivam took the first step at my house. I hit his head very hard with a bat."
On hearing this, Mayil hides her face in Mrityunjay's chest, and Mrityunjay angrily looks at Mohan. Jagdish is very shocked at this act by his father and Mohan. but he asked.
"You killed him."
"No, my powerful blow rendered him unconscious. His head was bleeding profusely, but that bastard was breathing. I had already dug a pit in the garden because I could not leave any evidence at all. We both buried him alive in the ground and planted cacti on his grave. Because he deserves thrones only... I pick only flowers for you.... only for my son.... For years, I wanted to see Shweta as a good wife, and that too only for you."
"You are also involved in killing Sunaina's family along with Papa... Did you guys kill Sunaina's family first or later?"
"The very next day, when we decided your wedding date, we met them too... We were both happy that there was no trouble left in the lives of our daughter and son. Then the girl called, and she told Prakash that she was going to be the mother of your child. Prakash was very angry that a girl from a small house could become his daughter-in-law. I convinced him that the way Shivam was using Shweta to defame us... In the same way, this girl is also taking your support. All these people will be in collusion because Shivam and Sunaina knew each other. We went to her house and absolutely tried to convince them. We tried to shut their mouths with money and try hard to convince her family to have an abortion, but that girl's brother was adamant that he would meet you first, and if he had met you, then everything would have been shattered. Respect was very dear to them, and her brother said that he did not have any problems. If his sister wants to marry a boy of her choice, all he knows is that first he wants to meet the boy and ask him everything himself. We killed them and burned their respect and stubbornness with them."
Mritunjay's eyes turn dark, but suddenly Mayil's body starts shivering, and she holds Mrityunjay very well in a weakened state. He looks at her and lifts her face to look into her eyes, and with tear-filled eyes, she looks at him with tears in her eye. He clenched his jaw to witness her vulnerability. He knows that all is not well for Mayil. So he immediately turns her over, holds her mouth tightly so that no sound comes out at all, presses a point well below her ear, and within a few minutes, Mayil hangs in his arms unconsciously. Hold her well and look at Jagdish.
