MAIN STORY:

Ava says to Suresh, "Do you have even the slightest idea who I want to kill, Suresh?"

"This is your last day. Sir had already told you that if you ever came into anyone's sight with the intention of killing Ruby, it would be your last day. And what did you do? You brought Ruby all the way here. If she recognizes me in this Joker mask, Sir's entire plan will be ruined. I am Sir's last weapon, who has come to destroy you and your entire family."

Suresh is shocked after hearing Ava's words and asks, "Your Highness, is that you?"

Ava laughs and says, "Finally, you've recognized me. I am Your Highness, the true heir of Taj Palace. Taj Palace is mine, it was my father's dream, and you people snatched it away from him by cheating."

Suresh falls to Ava's feet and begs for his life, asking for another chance. Suresh tells Ava, "Ruby is still in the car, shall I kill her now?"

Ava angrily says, "If you kill Ruby now, my plan will be ruined. Your family will ask me to return to England, and anyway, you're of no use to me now. But I won't kill you now. Your death will be accidental. First, we need to take care of Ruby."

Ava then orders the guards who were standing there to keep Suresh captive until Sir arrives. Suresh starts begging Ava again, but she doesn't listen to him.

With a heavy heart, Ava tells Ruby that Suresh has escaped, and she couldn't catch him. Ruby tells Ava, "It's okay, we'll tell Grandpa about what Suresh did." Ava agrees and says, "Yes, you should talk to Grandpa about this."

Ava creates a tensed face, starts the car, and leaves with Ruby. While driving, Ava recalls her past when she was just 12 years old. Ava was sitting in front of Mask Man, crying. Mask Man tells Ava, "You don't need to cry. Those who did wrong to you will have to pay the price."

Ava asks Mask Man, "But how?" Mask Man replies, "Ruby." Ava looks at Mask Man and smiles, saying, "I had forgotten about her. Please tell me what to do now."

Mask Man says, "I've heard Ruby is in England. I'm sending you there. I've also heard that Johnathan is in England, who is a good friend of mine. He has no children, so I'll ask him to adopt you. You'll live with Johnathan and his wife Emily. They'll take good care of you and get you educated in a good university."

"Remember, you have to take revenge, but don't just focus on revenge. Live your life to the fullest. After many years, you'll meet Ruby again, and you'll need to be prepared for that." Ava determines firmly, saying, "Yes, sir, I understand."

Mask Man tells Ava, "Ava, I consider you like my own child. That's why I want you to take good care of yourself." Ava gets emotional and says, "Yes, sir, I know. Thank you, sir."

Ava recalls the time when she was 15 years old and attending classes. Suddenly, a song plays in the school, causing Ava to experience severe headaches and pain. She screams in agony, and her eyes turn red. Her condition worsens, and she faints.

When Ava regains consciousness, she finds herself lying on a hospital bed. Emily is standing beside her, and as soon as Emily sees Ava awake, she rushes to hug her, tears streaming down her face. Ava sees her mother in Emily and hugs her back, crying.

Emily tells Ava, "If you scare me like this again, I'll...". Ava apologizes and says, "I'm sorry, but you and Dad lied to me. That's why, until I complete Sir's task, I won't call you Mom and Dad."

Johnathan arrives and tells Ava, "The doctor said you need to avoid stress, so I'll arrange for your studies to be continued at home, where you won't be disturbed by loud noises." Ava looks at Johnathan with tears in her eyes and says, "Thank you for adopting me and for lying to me."

Ava looks at Emily and hears Ruby's voice, calling out to her in fear. Ava returns to the present and sees a car approaching from the front. She quickly turns the steering wheel and avoids the collision, stopping the car in the middle of the road.

Ruby asks Ava, frightened, "Ava, what happened to you? You weren't responding to me for a long time. If you hadn't reacted on time, do you know what would have happened?" Ava angrily replies, "I would have died, what else?"

Ruby calmly places her hand on Ava's and says, "Ava, you can tell me anything." Ava's eyes well up with tears as she asks, "Can I really tell you anything, Ruby?" Ruby assures her, "Yes, anything."

Ava reveals, "I like Dipti, and Dipti likes me too, but Dipti said her uncle, Mr. Mukherjee, won't agree." Ruby's heart aches upon hearing this, but she smiles and says, "Don't worry, I'll talk to Grandpa, and he'll convince Mukherjee. I'll also talk to Anurag."

Ruby asks Ava, "But how did you fall in love with Dipti? You just met her today, didn't you?" Ava places her hand on Ruby's and says, "Dipti and I studied at the same institute. We lived in the same area in England. That's when I fell in love with her."

Ruby interrupts Ava, struggling to hold back tears, and says, "Okay, stop now, Ava. I'll talk to Grandpa about this." Ava's eyes are filled with tears as she smiles and says, "Thank you, Ru. I'll never forget this favor."

Ruby turns her face away, trying to hide her tears, and says, "It's okay, I can do this much for my friend." Ava starts the car and heads towards the palace.

After reaching the palace, Ruby walks inside without saying a word to Ava, hiding her tears. Ava watches Ruby leave, looking tense, and says, "I don't know why I'm feeling so much pain in my heart after lying to Ruby and causing her trouble."

Ava places her hand on her heart and tells herself, "Ava, don't think too much. They're all your enemies."

"Now that I've added Dipti to the plan by telling Ruby a false story, I need to talk to Dipti about it," Ava thinks to herself. With a devilish smile, Ava looks towards the palace and says, "You're all nearing destruction."

Ruby goes to her room and cries uncontrollably, telling herself, "If only I had met Ava before Dipti, if only Ava was my friend, not Ava, but my friend... if only Ava loved me."

Ruby recalls the engagement ceremony when the lights went out, and she took Ava's hand to talk to her. But Dipti intervened, holding Ava's hand, and Ava recognized Ruby, saying, "I know you're happy, but this isn't the time. Go and get engaged."

Ruby asks Ava if she's happy about her engagement. Ava replies, "Why wouldn't I be? It's my friend's engagement." Ruby quickly takes a deep breath and says, "Okay, I'll go get engaged."

Ruby returns to Anurag's side, and when the lights come back on, she behaves normally, as if nothing happened. Despite being heartbroken, Ruby composes herself and calls Suresh. However, Ava has Suresh's phone, and when she sees Ruby's call, she slams the phone to the ground, breaking it. Ruby's call gets disconnected, and despite her repeated attempts, she can't reach Suresh.

Ava enters the palace and calls Dipti to her room, asking, "Will you support me in this task? If you try to betray me or Sir, I'll kill you." Dipti smiles and assures Ava, "Your Highness, don't worry, I won't betray you or Sir."

Dipti adds, "Can I say something? Why don't you make me your lover instead?" Ava looks at Dipti with a smile and an attitude, saying, "Complete the task you're here for. As for being lovers, I don't trust love. Just like friendship can be fake, love can be fake too. That's it."

Just then, Ruby arrives outside Ava's room to discuss Angel, but Ava notices Ruby approaching and pulls Dipti into a hug. Seeing Ava with Dipti, Ruby becomes sad and returns without entering the room. Ava's face also falls, seeing Ruby's pain, and she tells Dipti to leave.
