"W-what....are you being serious?...she...she was there?...she is here i-in India?" Farhan asked with shock. Vicky nodded with Sona on his lap, hiding her face in his neck. Farhan ran his hand through his hair and smiled. "After 10 years....10 years of trying to find her, we suddenly find her in India as one of the top lawyers? " Farhan gasped out. 

Farhan then looked at Ezhil who was sitting on the sofa with silence. His face blank, lost in his own thoughts. "Ezhil" Farhan called out, placing his hand on Ezhil's shoulder but he didn't react. "Ezhil" Farhan shook his arm making his jump. "Huh...what?" he blinked a few times. "Did you...did you talk to her?" Farhan asked in a quiet tone. Ezhil stayed silent but nodded his head. "W-what...what did she say?" Sunny spoke for the first time, his voice sounding weak. "She hates me" he muttered with pain.
