He wanted to talk with Preet but they took his phone. He knows very well someone is trying to defame him.
Preet served water to Damini as she just come back from her maternal house. Damini nodded at her in acknowledgment and drank the water.
Suddenly Urmila came there with her mother. She touched her feet.
"When did you come, Ma? You didn't inform me," Urmila asked, giving her a small smile.
"Abhi Aye hein. I think this is my home and I don't need to tell anyone to come here, right," Urmila's smile fell but she quickly gave her a tight smile and nodded her head.
"Of course, Ma,"
Preet went inside the kitchen. As she entered, Sumitra was already there doing something. Seeing Preet, she smiles at her.
"Arre Preet, have some juice dear. See how tired you are looking. Take care of yourself," she said, forwarding a glass of orange juice.
"Thank you, Nani Ji. But I am full," she politely denied it and turned off the gas switch.
"I insist. I am really sorry for my previous behavior. I am really wrong about you. I am sorry,"
"It's okay, Nani ji,"
"Still, I am genuinely sorry. You are such a sweetheart, Preet," she smiled at her feeling weird at her sweet nature toward her.
"I heard Veer come back last night," she asked.
Preet opened her mouth to say but her phone ring cut her off.
"Okay, I am coming. Till then keep the clients busy. Show them our luxury menu," she cut the call and went out in a hurry.
Sumitra scoffs at her, seeing her going upstairs in a hurry.
Urmila was talking with Damini as they were having their evening snacks. At the same time, a maid came running to them.
"Madam, the Police are here and asking for everyone," Damini frowns, then looks at Urmila who is also as confused as her.
They walk out of the dining room. The police officers stood up seeing them.
"Ji kahiye, officer. What made you come here?" Damini asked in a polite yet powerful voice.
"We have a case filed against your family, Mrs. Rajvansh. You have to come with us to the police station for further investigation," as the Police officer told her. They become shocked and too stunned to react.
Urmila looks at Damini with shock and a scared face. While Damini herself is terrified at the information.
"What are you saying, sir? Why does anyone do this to us? And you filed the case against us?" Damini felt humiliated and angry but she kept her calm.
"You will get answers to every question in the police station. Just cooperate with us. Please," Urmila felt tears in her eyes as one of the lady constables gestured to her to come with them.
"Ma.."
"Don't worry. Nothing will happen. Let's see what's the matter," Damini assures her, seeing her scared face.
When they are going with the police, Sumitra is looking at them with a smirk but seeing Urmila's fearful expression she feels pain.
"I am sorry Urmi. But don't worry I will make everything alright,"
She whispered.
As they reached the police station, Veer was already present there talking with the inspector.
"I just want to know who filed the case against my family, sir," Veer asked, looking angry as they were annoying him by asking stupid questions and forcefully accusing him and his family for doing violence and assaulting his wife mentally and physically.
And he told them he had not done anything like this for a thousand times but they were not ready to hear him.
"Veer, What is happening? Who is behind all this?" Veer turns and looks at his Dadi and Choti Ma.
Now he felt furious seeing his family in the police station when they were innocent.
"How dare you bring my family here without any solid proof. They are innocent. Nothing is proof yet," he said angrily to the inspector.
"I suggest you to control your anger, Mr. Rajvansh or it won't be time to put you behind bars. Instead of feeling guilty for abusing your wife, here mister is showing his arrogance," Damini still for a second hearing the officer.
"What nonsense are you babbling, officer? I know my grandson, he can never think about hurting Preet. And you are accusing him of abuse," Damini told him, glaring at the inspector.
"Of course you would support him after all the whole family is involved in domestic violence. I will make sure you all will stay behind bars as long as possible," The police inspector said while eyeing them.
"Don't worry your remaining family is coming to join you soon,"
Urmila sat on the bench while crying silently. She turned numb. Her brain stops working in fear. Don't know what will happen to them.
"We didn't do anything. Stop accusing us for such horrible crimes," Veer said, gritting his teeth.
"On what basis, you keep us in the police station," Damini asked.
"We have a witness, Mrs. Rajvansh. They must be here- they are here,"
They turned to see but looking at them their eyes widened. Damini looked at them in disbelief.
"Why did you do this?" she asked in a hard tone as her cold gaze fixed on them. While Veer is in shock.
Urmila glares at them and looks at them with her hard gaze. Feeling her inside burning in anger.
