Bab 44: Resilience

Aayat had transformed. The lively girl who had once thrived on laughter and friendship was now a shell of her former self. After Hamza's sudden betrayal, she had become numb to emotions, shutting herself off from the world. Her trust had been shattered, and the scars of his deceit ran deep.

She threw herself into her work, her focus razor-sharp. Her laboratory became her sanctuary, the place where she could hide from the outside world and its complexities. Ayaan, her nephew, was the only source of warmth and comfort in her life now. She poured her love and energy into him, determined to provide him with the best upbringing she could.
