ArShi SS: Reversed Ch.16 B updated, page 22, 12/11 - Page 5

The day following Arnav's consent Khushi Gupta found herself a married woman, though her name or her appearance indicated nothing of it. She didn't believe a mangalsutra or a streak of red could represent a relationship, a relationship she never wanted any part in. Who has ever been given what they wanted, anyway? She did what she had to do. For her firm and to keep it as hers. She had known she has made enemies over the years of her reign but she didn't think the one to strike first would be one of their own- Shyam Manohar Jha, the best lawyer in S&G, the one she trusted enough to make him a senior member.

She wouldn't be Khushi Gupta if she didn't figure out Shyam's game before he could play his cards. But much to her shame what she didn't know was Arnav Singh Raizada, the one person she had ever come to have feelings for, was his card, his right hand. Arnav Singh Raizada was as much of a traitor as her heart had been.

Oh so they did have a thing between them before the whole contract marriage. Sounds like board is wanting to give him Khushi's job which he isn't aware of. And like she said, her career comes first so she'll do anything to save it like he will do anything for his sister. Btw using his sister's health as leverage is a different kind of low so damn Khushi! So far it's all very superficial and I can't wait for you to divulge the deeper meanings and reasons for all of this, aka feelings...

Arnav Singh Raizada married the woman he loved with all his heart... after she threatened him with his sister's life. He knew, Khushi Gupta would cut a hole size of an universe in Anjali's life if she doesn't get what she wants. And not bat an eyelid while doing it. She could gift him a Doctor's favour from the other end of the world for his Di, because his billable were outstanding and she could ask her Doctor friend to go back to where he came from. Even after knowing Anjali's would be in-laws have a problem with her limp. Especially after knowing Anjali's would be in-laws have a problem with her limp.

As for himself, Arnav is lost. He had lost control of his life somewhere in between becoming a lawyer and Khushi Gupta's dirty secret. On the way things went wrong and he could only watch, helpless. He couldn't let Khushi destroy Anjali. Neither could he destroy Khushi. Because Arnav Singh Raizada loved her and sometimes she loved him too.*

*I know, I know. As an incorrigible sucker for Neruda's poetry I deem this line perfectly fit for the ending of this part.

I am having too much fun writing this one. Though by the looks of it, not everyone is. Those who are still reading it, thank you 🤗

What a twisted story. Love it.

Loving khushi on the upper hand😊

Ok so feelings are mutual but more so from Arnav's side since he's in love whereas Khushi may have been on her way if this didn't happen. It seems as if Shyam is using Arnav without the latter's knowledge. I want to know where exactly Arnav fits in his ploy and how close those two are.

So how does Arnav's family feel about his sudden marriage? Initially I had thought that it'd be a secret arrangement but Khushi asking him to discuss with his family hints otherwise. Does he live with her now?

Very much enjoying this different take of yours.

Oh I see you already wrote few parts. I didn't notice. So they had some sort of relationship and now Khushi forced him to marry her because this way she wants to keep the firm in her hands. It's really interesting.

You are updated this real quick! Thanks a lot for this. Be back with my comments!

Loving this one.
