Sara's heart was beating fast as she sat down for THE dinner. Nisha was as shocked as her. They all just sat in silence. The maids came and served the food. "Help yourselves" Stacy said breaking the ice. They started eating. The seating felt oddly arranged—Rishabh and Stacy sat at opposite ends of the table. Zade was directly across from Sara, Elena sat facing Nisha, and Khushi was seated across from Sebastian. The air held a strange tension. "You all may leave now" Stacy ordered the maids and soon they left the house. (Glass clinks ) "May I have your attention, please," Stacy said, drawing everyone's eyes. Rishabh stood beside her. Then, in their own languages—Stacy in Filipino, Rishabh in Hindi—they announced: "Ikakasal na kami!" "Hum dono shaadi kar rahe hain!" "Wait... WHAT?!" Jaws dropped around the table—except Khushi, who burst into tears, and Sebastian, who looked betrayed. Zade and Elena immediately confronted their mother, while Sara and Nisha turned to their father. "Papa, are you serious?" "Please tell me this is a joke!" Chaos exploded in the room. Then- "Everyone, silence. Let us explain—" Rishabh began, then shared how three months ago, during his first trip to the Philippines, he had a huge fight with Khushi over the phone. To cool off, he went to a club, met Stacy—who'd also just fought with Sebastian—and they ended up drinking, talking… and eventually dating. "You've been cheating on Mom for three months?!" Sara shouted. "I told her the day we planned this trip," Rishabh replied. "She even saw Stacy this morning." "And all of you better start packing," Stacy added, "we're flying to India for the wedding as per his rituals, then returning for mine." Sara felt like she couldn't breathe—anger, betrayal, and heartbreak flooding her all at once. Elena looked crushed, Zade ready to explode as he saw his father being sad like never before. Nisha sat in shock, and Khushi sobbed uncontrollably. Rage boiled inside Sara. Before Zade could react, she slammed the table. "Do you have any shame?! You haven't even divorced Mom and you're planning a wedding?!" "Sara! Watch your mouth!" Rishabh snapped, pulling out documents. He tossed divorce papers to Stacy, who did the same."Here sign it." Khushi suddenly stopped crying. Calmly, she took a pen from her purse, signed the papers, walked up to Rishabh, threw the papers at him and slapped him hard. "That's for humiliating my daughter," she said coldly. Without another word, she walked out, got in the car, and drove off—before Sara or Nisha could stop her. * Where is Khushi going? What is going to happen next? Stay tuned for the next part.
