It was around 8 o'clock in the morning. Shristi was getting Akshara ready for school. She was then escorted to her own private Rolls Royce. Yes within the past years, the Luthras had gotten more richer and could afford anything. They were even featured in Forbes magazine as one of the richest families. Karan promised to pick up Akshara after school and go to visit all the most luxurious hotels in the city.
On the other hand, Preeta and Sonia successfully run away without letting Shiv know. Since Shiv and Preeta did not live together. Preeta told him that she was not well and did not want to be disturbed.
The two took one of Preeta's luxurious cars and packed all their belongings.
Immediately , Preeta entered Mumbai she had unclear flashes of her past , from her father's death and selling their house and moving to the city to find their mother to bumping into Karan and meeting the Luthras.
A strange feeling started to rise in Preeta's heart. She suddenly felt dizzy and requested Sonia to take her to the hotel. That was the same hotel Karan and Akshara were to come to.
Preeta's meeting went well. She even met many young, dashing and successful doctors who were head over heels for her. They even requested to take her out on a date. But she was just not interested and denied all of them. Sonia could not understand why.
At around 4 pm, Akshara closed from school and Karan left his club. The two visited all the ice cream trucks and finally as promised, Karan took her to the same luxurious hotel Preeta was in.
Akshara was dumbfounded and very mesmerized with the decorations . She took pictures of every part of the hotel so she could show her friends. Karan on the other hand, was very busy with his fans . Everywhere he turned he heard," OMG Karan Luthra, I am a huge fan of yours. Can I have a selfie and an autograph. ".
Realising that her father was busy with his fans, she wandered off to explore other parts of the hotel. At that time , Preeta was done with her meeting and was coming from the conference room.
She sat in her car and was driving out, Akshara was also coming from the other side passed infront of the car and was almost hit by the car .
Preeta came out to check on who had been hit by her car. She got down and saw a cute 6 year old girl sitting on the floor crying . Akshara had been hurt on her knee. Preeta immediately felt a connection with her. She could feel her pain in her heart .
Preeta: oh no!! Are you alright dear?
Akshara (crying) : no aunty, my knee hurts a lot. I am in a lot of pain.
Preeta: oh my god I am so sorry. Come let me help you. Don't worry , I am a doctor okay. Don't cry okay, you are a brave girl.
Anshara: okay aunty.
Preeta carries her inside her car. She gives her a lollipop. She starts cleaning her wounds with disinfectant and bandaged the wound. She then gives her pain relieving medications .
But something snapped, whiles Preeta was busy with her treatment, Akshara studied Preeta's face carefully. She realised that she was the same woman whose pictures were all over Karan's room. She then understood that the woman infront of her was her mother. She had already seen a huge portrait of her's with a garland in the hall. Preeta was still busy with the treatment until Akshara shouted...
Akshara : MAA!!
Preeta stopped and looked up," what did you say?"
Akshara: you are my mom, you are my mom.
Preeta (Shocked): what are you saying dear? How can I be your mother? I am not even married and I have never given birth.
Akshara: wait you are my mom, let me go call dad. He has been waiting for you for a long time. You wait here.
Preeta: but I am not your mom. What is your father's name.
Akshara:'the Karan Luthra'.
Saying this she ran out to call Karan. Preeta started getting flashes after hearing the name Karan Luthra. She started feeling dizzy and uneasy. She immediately called her driver and left for her apartment.
Meanwhile, Karan was still busy with his fans when Akshara pulled him aside.
Karan: what happened sweetie pie? I was busy you know.
Akshara : papa, I have to show you someone. Please come with me now or else she will leave.
Karan: okay I will but wait how did you get hurt. Who did this to you? I won't spare the person tell me .
Akshara: maa.
Karan: What?
Akshara tells him everything that happened. Karan remains speechless and follows Akshara with a thousand thoughts on his mind .
They reached the place but found no one and no car.
Karan: baby are you sure of what you are saying?
Akshara: yes papa, I am very sure. I think she left when I came to get you. Wait papa I see something.
Akshara picks something from the ground. It was an anklet with the name 'preeran' and heart symbols. She showed it to Karan.
Akshara: Look papa, it's an anklet . I saw it on mama's leg. See papa I am not lying.
Karan looked at the anklet and looked at the one on his leg. They were the same. He realised that only Preeta could have it since he had specifically made it for them with their ship name 'preeran'. He started thinking about the possibility of Preeta being the one. He smiled and said to Akshara...
Karan(smilingly): haan princess it was your mom. I told you she is coming. I promise you within the next month your mom will come back to us. Because I am the Karan Luthra and I never break my promises.
Akshara: yes papa , I know and I trust you.
Karan: yes dear. Tell me something did you see the car number and do you remember?
Akshara: yes papa, it's xxxxxx.
Karan: thank you dear you have made me very happy today. Thank you and I love you a lot.
Akshara: I love you too papa.
Both hug each other and leave for their home.
Preeta reaches her apartment and goes straight to her room. She freshens up and have her dinner. She keeps thinking about the name Karan Luthra. She picks up her iPhone 12 pro max and asks Siri to search for the Karan Luthra. She sees his pictures and feels like she knows him. She then goes to sleep with an uneasy feeling.
Precap: Karan traces the car number and meets with Preeta's PA . He finds out the truth.
