Hey Swati !
From my first few comments not Arnav's affair, but behavior/actions, towards soon to be divorced wife, Khushi, had bothered me.
I have not called or seen it as cheating but disrespectful, self love, entitled...the list is long!
The last chapter covers that how Khushi has also perceived it. In fact much more factoring in Khushi's personality and their relationship with each other.
The chapter also covers how he has cut her off even before the ONS.
As I clearly stated on my detailed thoughts and my many comments before, I have long ago moved on from the ONS. For me just like law, this is mutual without scientific evidences. I hate to say this but this is how law perceives things because Arnav and Lavanya will provide exact opposite statements and there is no third person as witness or medical tests to prove more to it. They did not go to the law and walked away without arguing is another reason to say they took equal responsibility for the mishap and I am waiting for the La chapter. What I feel personally (Viagra or drink spiking happed) has ZERP value.
If Arnav's behavior with his wife was crass since one year (Dec 2014 onwards) but my specific point is that his behavior after Lavanya incident in Pachgani, from Nov 8th - Dec 18th 2015 when he finally first time talked to Khushi about the divorce, Arnav meeting Lavanya because he has sympathy, care for her and he claims to provide emotional support for La is CLEAN BROAD DAY LIGHT EMOTIONAL, PHYSICAL and CYBER CHEATING in worst possible way and there is no two ways about this. Arnav's excuses or his experiences with his sister making him do certain things does NOT change this fact.
Regarding why he bought La stories and ignored many stupid statements of hers in the restaurant and focused on only few...maybe some will get covered in subsequent chapters.

1. Also to me this ONS is not infidelity (irresespective of what really happened) because of the repeated nos of a drunk man ! Is that acceptable to Khushi his wife or many readers..nope.
I totally agree with you, as I said above I have moved on and never called this infidelity. Grave drunken mistake, maybe. Or I am ok with whatever writer calls it or how Khushi proceeds on this. Though for now Khushi has refused to forgive him for Lavanya.
2. To me when "any" woman after a "mutual" drunken ONS with a "stranger" wants to carry a baby to term not abort..the onus/responsibility is on her. This stance of mine may/was unacceptable to many.
This is 200% right across the world. Onus here was only on Lavanya. Arnav claiming responsibility and honor is the worst excuse I have ever heard, when in fact she is his shame, guilt and dark secret that he is hiding from the world.
In reality, the ONS is shameful adultery for any married man / woman, Arnav himself has proved it too by going miles to catch photographer and dispose of his compromised pics with La. If he was so righteous, why hasn't he come out in the open, accept responsibility in public when he is a public figure?
3. Shyam aggressive and forceful behavior in past and today is of the worst kind.
Shyam is pathetic excuse of human being and I have always refrained from commenting, not worth it. I have declared it Khushi's biggest mistake to even opt for seeing him and moved on.
So each one of us reading this fiction based on our beliefs and perceptions. 😘
Let me reiterate, my main concern is Arnav's cheating by meeting Lavanya later in NOv-Dec 2015 timeframe.
If Arnav's behavior with his wife was crass since one year (Dec 2014 onwards) but my specific point is that his behavior after Lavanya incident in Pachgani, from Nov 8th - Dec 18th 2015 when he finally first time talked to Khushi about the divorce, Arnav meeting Lavanya because he has sympathy, care for her and he claims to provide emotional support for La is CLEAN BROAD DAY LIGHT EMOTIONAL, PHYSICAL and CYBER CHEATING in worst possible way and there is no two ways about this. Arnav's excuses or his experiences with his sister making him do certain things does NOT change this fact.
This is a fact no one can deny - The story writer and readers that support Arnav in this story, readers like me who do NOT support Arnav from this story and neutral readers who feel sympathy for both Arnav and Khushi. There is open proof, BLACK and WHITE in the story that Arnav was sympathetic, caring and emotionally involved with Lavanya while keeping his wife in dark about the Panchgani ONS incident, his meetings with Lavanya, phone calls and texts.

I want to know your opinion on Arnav's behavior during Nov-Dec 2015, nothing else.
