Rage began to overshadow Armaan's rational mind as the different thoughts began to filter into his thoughts

His son's mother had deceived him and his staff from day one and now she was dead and as such untouchable.

A surrogate mother doesn't have any rights over the child. So the honorary aunt has even less

So naturally Janani had not owned up to the truth

After all, her only way of making profit through Advi was by pretending to be his birth mother ,the part of him deeply ingrained with mistrust poked its head and reminded him

No...he refuse to believe that.

Didn't he just an hour ago tell Inder that there are two sides to a coin.

And didn't Janani tell him she wanted to talk something important

What if she was going to tell him everything

He will give her the chance to tell him the truth!!

Inder smiled relieved. So the woman he saw today is the better twin. Not the evil twin he had known a year ago.

"Good! Now everything is fine. I will leave you to it" Inder said and Armaan nodded forcing a smile

He hope everything will be fine

****

He reached home at the same time Janani and the kids came back

Advi was asleep nestling trustingly in his momma's chest

No...not momma!!

"You are early??" Janani asked as she spotted Armaan

"There was nothing important to do at office ,so I thought I would just come home" he said stiffly

Although Janani was trying hard not to stare at Armaam when they walked in, she is convinced that something unpleasant had happened

His handsome face is frozen into rigidity

Had he received bad news? Some business setback? Or something of a more personal nature?

"You said you wanted to talk?? About something very important??" Armaan asked icily and Janani involuntarily shivered

Now is not the time ,she thought

He is already in a foul mood. The truth will only aggravate him. She will have to wait for him to calm down.

"Oh nothing important" Janani said adopting a non chalant shrug without looking at him and failed to see his face darkening in rage

"I'll take him" Armaan told her hoisting the sleepy baby against his shoulder in a blatantly protective movement that left Janani confused

They saw Mrs Seth coming down and Armaan settled the baby into her arms and instructed her to take both the children to the nursery and feed them and put them for their afternoon nap

Janani looked on in confusion

"So we were talking??? Armaan prompted again and saw her squirming

"As I said ,nothing important Armaan" she said

"It sounded very important in the morning"

"Oh.Its just ,I was missing home. I just thought I could go over and pay a visit during the weekend. Maa would love to meet Ava and they are really missing Advi too" she chuckled nervously

"You can go if you want. My children stays here" Armaan declared

She has no intention of owning up the truth. She is still keeping up the ruse, Armaan thought bitterly
