Some truths can be hidden… some feelings can be denied…
But what happens when love refuses to fade, no matter how hard you try to bury it?
Elina sat beside David and said softly,
"Look, David… there was a time when I loved you, when I was your wife. But today, everything has changed. You are about to marry Sharlin… and I am going to marry Jack. The path of our relationship has already turned. So it would be better if you forget the past and move forward in life. Stay happy… and keep Sharlin happy too."
David looked at her, his eyes filled with pain.
"If you truly don't love me… then I promise, I will never come into your life again… not even stand in front of you. But first, answer a few questions."
Elina looked at him calmly. "What questions?"
David's voice grew intense.
"When you heard about my accident… why did you come running to me like a mad person? Why were you crying so much? And why did you keep saying 'I love you'? Wasn't that love?"
Elina looked away, avoiding his gaze.
"No… I don't love you. I was just acting at that moment… so that you would react honestly."
She turned to leave, but David suddenly pulled her closer.
"You can fool the whole world, Elina… but not me," he said firmly. "I know you inside out. You love me… and only me. And you always will. Do you know why?"
Elina fell silent. Her voice softened.
"Why…?"
David leaned closer and whispered,
"Because without loving me… you won't even be able to breathe for a second."
Elina looked at him… but said nothing.
Their eyes locked… the distance between them disappearing.
Just then, Jack and Sharlin arrived.
Jack's face burned with anger, though he said nothing to David.
Elina immediately went to Jack and said,
"Jack, please don't misunderstand… I just came to meet David… to ask how he is."
Jack nodded. "It's okay."
At that moment, Elina received a call from Robert.
She left immediately to meet him.
Robert handed her a drive and said,
"This is the footage. Do you want to watch it first… or go straight to the police station?"
Elina called her lawyer and asked him to come home.
When Robert and Elina reached the house, they began watching the footage before the lawyer arrived.
The moment Elina saw the face in the video… she froze.
Before the footage could even finish, the electricity suddenly went out.
Robert asked, "Do you know this man?"
Elina replied coldly,
"Yes… I know him very well. He's the one who pretended to love me… promised to marry me… and then betrayed me. His name is John."
Her voice trembled with anger.
"I never imagined he could do something this disgusting to me."
Just then, the lawyer arrived and asked for evidence.
Without hesitation, Elina handed over the footage.
After taking the evidence, the lawyer left.
Robert frowned.
"You didn't even watch the full footage… why did you give it to him? Maybe there was something more."
Elina looked at him.
"Did you watch it before?"
Robert shook his head.
"No… that's why I'm saying, we should've watched it completely."
Elina sighed.
"Forget it… we just needed to know who that person was. Now that we know, what else is left?"
Outside the door, Arohi had heard everything.
Elina noticed her and immediately opened the door.
"What happened, Arohi? Do you want to say something? You had left the house… when did you come back?"
Arohi replied nervously,
"I didn't come back… I just came to take some of my things."
She left immediately.
Elina understood everything.
Arohi was innocent… and John would definitely try to take advantage of her.
She and Robert looked at each other and said together,
"We have to protect Arohi from John."
Meanwhile, Arohi went to meet John.
John smiled and asked,
"Arohi… will you marry me?"
Without thinking, Arohi said yes.
He took her to a party… and secretly mixed something into her drink.
Without realizing, Arohi had already fallen into his trap.
As soon as she lost consciousness, John carried her to a hotel room… and began trying to fulfill his filthy intentions.
But at that very moment—
Elina and Robert arrived.
They saved Arohi just in time.
Looking at the police, Elina shouted loudly,
"Arrest him!"
John tried to run… but the police caught him.
Arohi wasn't fully conscious, but whatever she saw was enough to understand the truth—
John was a disgusting man.
Elina and Robert brought Arohi out of the hotel.
She was terrified.
Elina said,
"Robert… it won't be right to take her home right now. Everyone will panic seeing her condition. It's better if you take her with you to your hotel. I'll be able to relax knowing she's safe with you."
Robert nodded. He could never refuse Elina.
They placed Arohi in the car and drove away.
After dropping Elina home, Robert took Arohi to his hotel.
Arohi hesitated and asked,
"Your name is Robert… right?"
He smiled. "Yes."
He took good care of her and said gently,
"You sleep on the bed. I'll sleep in the drawing room. If you need anything, tell me. Good night."
Meanwhile, David called Elina.
"Elina… I'm not feeling well… I can't breathe properly. Which medicine should I take? I can't find any nurse here…"
Hearing this, Elina rushed to the hospital.
She ran into his cabin, breathless.
"What happened, David? Doctor! Doctor!" she shouted.
Suddenly, David got up from the bed and covered her mouth.
"Shh… I'm fine. Nothing happened to me."
Tears filled Elina's eyes.
It was clear how deeply she loved him.
She hugged him tightly and said,
"Stop it, David… don't test me like this anymore. Yes… I love you. I love you so much. But I have my own compulsions… because of which I can't be with you. Love doesn't always mean being together… sometimes it means someone else's happiness too."
Her voice broke.
"From today… I will never come in front of you again."
Saying this, Elina left the hospital.
That very night, she called Jack.
"Jack… can I stay at your house… in the guest room… before the wedding?"
Jack immediately came to pick her up.
Elina packed her belongings and left with him.
Will Elina really erase David's name from her heart… and marry Jack?
Will Arohi's life finally change… or is she still somehow connected to John?
And what other secrets were hidden in that incomplete CCTV footage?Sometimes, the truth isn't what you see… it's what gets hidden before you can see it completely.
