MEDIA SCORE.
"You can leave.", Anan spoke as Rishi left the office.
He carried the little girl's photo and walked towards the large glass window.
"It's been more than 15 years and I finally found you. Anvi...I Found you.", The words left his mouth as a little drop from his left eye rolled down his cheek.
No matter what happened his mouth was shut till now...he was an introvert from start but after going back to New York he befriended Karan, his search didn't stop...he realized that the matter wasn't as simple as he imagined it to be. There are forces hiding behind, and there is someone hiding and protecting Aditi...the one person who erased all her records of her being Anvi and made her Aditi...but why? He understood his only option was to become stronger...the strongest to make sure no other person can be his opponent other than he himself.
His thoughts were interrupted by a phone call.
Anan's lips turned upwards as he clicked the green icon.
"Let's meet.", A woman from the other side spoke.
"Sure, I am curious and have few questions too.", Anan spoke in his low deepened voice.
"Meet me in the café in front of your office, I have to go back soon and prepare lunch for sunny.", The other spoke.
Anan walked out of his room and entered the café she asked.
Anan saw the woman who's sipping coffee with at most ease as he walked towards her and sat in front of her.
"Why did you do it?", She spoke.
"I'm sorry Ms.Jane I'm afraid I can't understand what you mean?", He sipped his coffee. The woman in front of him was the dearest Aunt to Aditi, but seeing her like this he had his opinions on her.
"Why? You met her and married her, everything you wanted is happening right...why did you open the Pandora box? Why? Why are you causing troubles?", Her anger was reflected in her words.
"Her fate isn't in your hands to control. Why? Because I hate seeing her in pain, She shivers and crumbles every time it rains...she thinks she's abounded, while she has a family who's weeping for her every day.", Anan countered back at Jane which made her speechless.
"She was not abounded...they abducted her, Her mother is still living like a dead person, her father is seeing his dear daughter in his paintings, her brother is going throw hell and you are asking why?", His voice was rough bringing chills to the other person.
"She can't return, She shouldn't. Once she recovers her memories that person will not leave her alone, Anan I beg you...We can't save her, so listen to me...My boss asked me to pass this to you.", She handed him the paper and left the café.
Anan opened the letter-
"Anan, Thankyou for everything...I tried to check on you...but you are more mysterious than I imagined you to be. Now that you found out about her despite all my tries to stop you, I agree my defeat. But listen to this Old Man...The enemy is more dangerous than we think. Anvi has to stay dead and Aditi has to live in this world for everything to remain peaceful. Once they know that she is alive...they will not let her go. She is the reason for my past, present, and future. Protect your wife."
The letter ended. Rishi walked into the café as the guards followed from behind.
"It has been 10 years, he started to believe me now.", Anan placed the letter in his pocket and walked out of the café.
At Wendy's apartment.
"Sunny I'm back.", Jane spoke as she walked in.
"Grandma...why did you go for too long?", Sunny spoke as he passed her water.
"Had some issue to take care of.", She smiled as patted his head. Both smiled at each other.
Jane was Aditi's caretaker and dearest Aunty so Sunny liked her too.
''Let's go in.", She smiled as they entered the kitchen.

HOPE never took an extra member but seeing your skills we five unanimously decided to let you enter the team.", Mr . Dharma spoke.
"Sister Aditi your achievements in a year are very admirable.", Gary spoke.
"Yes, they were in the level of an experienced professional nothing like a rookie.", Ruby added.
"Hope to have a good corporation.", Mike smiled.
"Welcome, Let's be good friends.", Stephany hugged her.
"You...You guys are nothing like people spoke.", Sandy spoke out.
"Haha...what did you hear about us?", Ruby smiled and questioned.
"There are rumors that you guys are cold and unapproachable. Some said you guys hate someone disturbs you guys team built and also some said if someone harms one of you remaining all will be bullying that person without any mercy.", Sandy replied.
"Haha...We are not that complicated, but the last sentence is correct if someone touches one of us other 4 will take revenge. That's because we are one unit, The team HOPE.", Gary spoke this time.
"From now on you guys also belong to The team HOPE.", Stephany spoke as she warmly smiled.
Dharma smiled and walked out of the room leaving space for the youngsters.
Anan's office.
Door opened. As Rishi entered along with Dharma.
Dharma walked towards the sofa, Anan who was on call hang up the call and walked towards him.
"I don't doubt or question your choices and she is really suitable for THE HOPE, but can I ask why you wanted me to recruit her into Team HOPE. I'm pretty sure you know everyone in TEAM HOPE knows the other Identity that you've been hiding from the world. Anan Team HOPE is the only team that works for MEDIA SCORE. It also works for DESTINY.", Dharma spoke as he sipped his coffee.
Rishi turned on the T.V, The news reporter started to report the news...
"DESTINY, the brand which started by an anonymous head 10 years ago, breaking all the records of the coding world it stood as a top-notch AI company to this age...All the world organizations are trying to find the opportunity to get on their good side, yet some couldn't succeed to date. The company's representative just released the surprise news that it is signing the contract with MEDIA SCORE. The business world is praising the Newly Appointed CEO, Mr. Anan Mishra, for being able to sign the contract with the International company.", The news reporter reported.
Rishi pressed the off button.
"Uncle, I found her.", Anan spoke as he sipped his coffee.
"You...you found Anvi?", Dharma widened his eyes.
"Hmm, not only Anvi but also found out that our guess is right, someone is protecting her and someone with high power is trying to harm her too. It took me 10 years to find her. It took me 10 years to become more powerful than my enemy, now I can protect her.", Anan spoke.
"Where is she? What is she doing now? Is she married ?", He asked.
"It's Aditi, my wife.", Anan replied with a smile.
"Adi...Aditi? Good no wonder when I saw her I felt that I saw her somewhere...but why couldn't she recognize me?", Dharma spoke.
"She doesn't remember us and we still can't tell her about the past. We still have to be conscious about our Enemy.", Anan spoke.
"I know, leave her in my care. With her In my team...She won't face any difficulties.", Dharma spoke.
"Hmm...she was your student from start, With you by her side I don't have to worry.", Anan smiled.
"Does Karan know?", Dharma spoke.
"Not yet, it may take some time...there are still things that I have to figure out about.", Anan spoke.
"Okay.", Dharma nodded.
