Chapter Twenty Six
She confessed that she was marrying Ahmed only for his money and the power she’ll get as his wife.
Yaqub thanked God for saving his son’s future from that vicious woman.
His heart is happy for Ahmed. God is gifting him with an angel. But he just hopes his son doesn’t do anything foolish and cherishes the gift he is going to be given by God.

Ahmed paces here and there in his room, like a raging bull. Earlier, he went to his mother's room, but she didn't open the door.
He’s burning in anger. His anger was completely directed towards Sahaan. He tries to control himself because he doesn’t want to do something he might regret later. He’s not himself when angry. But he promised himself to teach her a lesson she’ll remember her whole life.
he sits on the bed and drinks a glass of water to calm down his anger. But his phone rings. Tanzeen's name flashes on the screen and he picks it up. He opens his mouth to say something, but she starts talking. His words leave him shocked. All kinds of emotions swirl in his eyes as he drops his phone on the floor.

Ahmed is shocked beyond disbelief. How can Sahaan do something like that? He keeps pacing around his room. Is it true? He ponders over Tanzeen’s words.
Ahmed bangs the door as he leaves.
The three of them jump in surprise, looking at his retreating back in confusion. Ahmed goes towards his grandmother’s room and enters after knocking on the door.
"Grandma, what did I hear? Tanzeen called me and she said Sahaan-" He’s interrupted by his father who is also sitting with his grandmother.
"Yes, you heard right. You’re getting married to Sahaan tomorrow. Your mother is not aware of this and don’t tell her about it,” His father leaves no chance for argument.
"But dad… I can't marry her. We can't do this… It’s... It’s..." He stammers, not knowing what to say, this was the third time he was speechless because of Sahaan.
