The war was nearing its climax, but Aarav knew that taking down Rudra Seth wouldn't be as simple as winning a courtroom battle. This was a war fought on multiple fronts—law, power, and force. He had already crippled Rudra financially, but now came the final blow.
Aarav sat in his study, his eyes scanning the map of Rudra's operations spread across the table. Ishani stood beside him, watching as he planned his next move.
"Kya soch raha hai?" she asked softly. ("What are you thinking?")
Aarav leaned back, rubbing his temple.
"Ab tak humne uske financial roots kaat diye hain, uske political alliances tod diye hain. Lekin jab tak woh khud gira nahi, yeh kahani khatam nahi hogi." ("We've cut off his financial roots, destroyed his political alliances. But until he himself falls, this story won't end.")
Ishani nodded.
"Phir agla kadam kya hai?" ("Then what's the next step?")
Aarav smirked.
"Uska asli chehra duniya ko dikhana." ("Exposing his true face to the world.")
By noon, multiple legal cases were filed against Rudra Seth and his close associates. These weren't just accusations—Aarav had made sure every case had rock-solid evidence.
News channels were flooded with headlines:
"Business Tycoon Rudra Seth Exposed—Links to Illegal Activities Revealed."
"Political Leaders Caught in Criminal Nexus—Mass Resignations Begin."
The police raided his offices, confiscated his properties, and froze his accounts. By evening, his empire was crumbling.
But Rudra wasn't a man to go down quietly.
Inside a heavily guarded hideout on the outskirts of the city, Rudra paced back and forth, watching the news on a giant screen. His jaw tightened as he saw his empire fall apart.
"Malhotra..." he growled, smashing the glass in his hand. "Tujhe jeene nahi dunga." ("I won't let you live.")
He turned to his most trusted men.
"Aaj raat, ek aakhri khel khelenge." ("Tonight, we'll play our final game.")
Aarav knew Rudra wouldn't sit idle. He was planning something. And Aarav had to move first.
Gathering his closest allies, including his parents and Ishani, Aarav laid out his final plan.
"Rudra ek jagah chupkar baitha hai," Aarav said, pointing at a map. ("Rudra is hiding in one location.")
"Uske personal guards wahi hain. Police usse easily nahi pakad payegi." ("His personal guards are there. The police won't be able to catch him easily.")
Rohit Malhotra, Aarav's father, nodded.
"Toh kya socha hai?" ("So what's your plan?")
Aarav's gaze darkened.
"Main khud jaa raha hoon." ("I'm going there myself.")
Ishani's breath caught.
"Aarav, yeh kitna risky hai tujhe pata hai na?" ("Aarav, you know how risky this is, right?")
Aarav turned to her, holding her gaze.
"Mujhe yehi karna hoga." ("I have to do this.")
She swallowed hard but nodded. She knew there was no stopping him now.
Night fell as Aarav, Ishani, and a team of trained operatives approached Rudra Seth's hideout—an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city. The air was thick with tension.
Aarav's team moved silently, neutralizing the outer guards before they could raise an alarm. Inside, the factory was dimly lit, shadows flickering against the steel walls.
Then, the doors burst open.
Gunfire erupted. Aarav took cover behind a crate, his pulse steady as he returned fire. Ishani, crouched beside him, clutched a small handgun. Her hands trembled slightly, but her eyes were fierce.
"Pehle kabhi gun chalayi hai?" Aarav asked, smirking. ("Ever fired a gun before?")
Ishani exhaled.
"Aaj seekh loongi." ("I'll learn today.")
They pushed forward, moving through the factory in sync. Aarav took down another guard, while Ishani managed to hit a man's shoulder, making him drop his weapon.
And then, they reached the main office.
Rudra Seth was waiting.
"Malhotra," he sneered, stepping forward. "Mujhe laga tu sirf courtrooms mein ladta hai." ("I thought you only fought in courtrooms.")
Aarav smirked, rolling his shoulders.
"Kabhi kabhi battlefield change karna padta hai." ("Sometimes, you have to change the battlefield.")
Without warning, Rudra lunged. Aarav was ready.
Fists flew, each punch landing with brutal force. Rudra was older but still strong. Aarav, however, was faster. A hard punch to Rudra's gut made him stagger back. He snarled, wiping blood from his lip.
"This isn't over," Rudra spat.
Aarav smirked.
"Haan, abhi ek cheez baaki hai." ("Yes, one thing is still left.")
With one final punch, Aarav sent Rudra crashing to the ground.
The doors burst open again—this time, it was the police. By the time they arrested Rudra Seth, his entire empire had already crumbled.
As the dust settled, one final truth remained.
Ishani's mother, known to the world as a simple housewife, stepped forward. But to those in the intelligence world, she was known by a different name—Agent Nira.
Aarav's parents recognized her instantly.
"Kabhi socha nahi tha ki tumse aise milenge," Rohit said. ("Never thought we'd meet like this.")
Nira smiled faintly.
"Maine bhi nahi socha tha ki ek din tumhare bete ki jaan bachani padegi." ("I never thought one day I'd have to save your son.")
Ishani stared at her mother, realization dawning.
"Tum... RAW ke liye kaam karti ho?" ("You... work for RAW?")
Nira simply nodded.
Everything had changed.
