Indu returns home. Sunita immediately questions her about leaving the jewellery behind. She asks why Indu did not bring it back when Ritesh himself told them to take it. Indu snaps and asks what exactly Sunita wants to know. She questions whether Sunita was so obsessed with the jewellery that she failed to notice what actually happened there. Indu reminds her how Ritesh insulted them by calling them beggars and even threatened to snatch Zoon from her. Vivek and Asha are left shocked. Sunita coldly replies that Ritesh can do whatever he wants with Zoon, as that will end the story. Indu screams that Zoon is her daughter, not a toy.

Sunita loses her temper and asks how many times she must repeat that Zoon is not Indu’s daughter. Indu firmly says that a lack of blood relation does not make Zoon any less her child. She explains that because of a promise she made, she never legally adopted Zoon. She adds that despite years of struggles, sacrifices, and arguments, Sunita never truly accepted Zoon as part of the family, and now everything has been ruined. Indu then questions why Sunita went to Ritesh’s house despite being told that she would handle the matter herself.
Sunita shouts that she went to take what belonged to her and insists that the jewellery was meant for Indu’s marriage. Indu yells that she does not want to marry anyone. She says marriage will not make her happy and declares that Zoon alone is her happiness. Sunita questions why Indu cannot think about anything beyond Zoon. Indu counters by asking why Sunita cannot drop the topic of marriage. Sunita walks away angrily, leaving Indu to sit silently on the couch.
At the Malhotra mansion, Sameer and Vivaan enter Kaamna’s room and praise her. Vivaan admits he was terrified when he was asked to call Jignesh. Kaamna smiles confidently and reveals that she anticipated this situation, which is why she had already explained the plan to Jignesh. Both Sameer and Vivaan admire her cunning. Kaamna declares that the game is far from over and vows to send Zoon back to the streets while destroying Indu’s happiness. Sameer and Vivaan are pleased.
Ritesh tells Rahul that Zoon does not deserve such suffering and deserves a much better life. He says he is ready to go to any extent to give her what she deserves. Rahul asks what he plans to do, but Ritesh admits he has not figured it out yet. At the Raina house, Zoon excitedly asks Indu to watch her new dance steps. Indu tells her to go away, saying she will watch later. When Zoon insists, Indu suddenly shouts at her, shocking everyone. Asha immediately takes Zoon away.
Outside the house, a masked person secretly records the incident and leaves. Indu breaks down, blaming Ritesh for her harsh behavior toward Zoon. Vivek tries to console her, saying that Ritesh acted out of anger and cannot separate her from Zoon. Indu cries and says Vivek does not understand Ritesh’s influence and determination. She clutches Zoon’s photo frame and declares that no matter how powerful Ritesh is, she will never let him take Zoon away.
Ritesh shares his worries about Zoon with Rahul, who urges him to calm down before taking any step. Kaamna receives the video of Indu shouting at Zoon and informs the sender that he will be paid. She smirks with satisfaction. Sameer notices her happiness, and Kaamna shows him the video. Sameer is surprised and asks how she predicted this. Kaamna explains that she sensed it the moment Indu stormed out of their house, so she sent a man to follow her. Sameer praises her and asks her to proceed with the next plan. Kaamna agrees.
Rahul again tries to reason with Ritesh, saying their understanding of Indu and Zoon’s relationship is incomplete. Ritesh refuses to listen and insists that Zoon deserves a better environment. Kaamna supports him and shows him the video, claiming she sent the driver out of concern for Zoon. Enraged, Ritesh decides to take Zoon to his house immediately. Kaamna stops him and warns that it would be illegal. Ritesh argues that if Indu could keep Zoon for five years, so can he.
Kaamna advises him to act legally and introduces the idea of contacting the Child Adoption Authorities (CAA). She explains that Zoon can be placed in a care center until she is given a proper home. Rahul pleads with Ritesh to think about Zoon, but both Ritesh and Kaamna scold him. Ritesh instructs Kaamna to contact the authorities. She does so, introduces herself as Ritesh’s PA, files the complaint in his name, and smirks triumphantly.
Later, Indu apologizes to Zoon for her behavior and promises to fulfill all her wishes. Zoon asks her to dance, and they happily dance together. The doorbell rings. Indu opens the door and is shocked to see Ritesh standing there with officials. Ritesh lifts Zoon and declares she will not stay there and suffer anymore. Indu desperately tries to stop him. Sunita arrives and coldly tells Ritesh to take Zoon with him. Ritesh pushes Indu aside and leaves with Zoon. Indu tries to follow, but Sunita shuts the door.
Indu suddenly wakes up screaming. It is revealed to be a nightmare. Asha and Anjali comfort her and assure her that Zoon is safe. Indu holds the sleeping Zoon and kisses her lovingly. The next morning, Ritesh performs aarti, recalls his moments with Zoon and Indu, and prays to God to guide him on the right path.
Precap: The Child Adoption Authorities arrive at Indu’s house and demand that she hand over Zoon. They ask her to pack Zoon’s belongings. Indu tells them Zoon is in the room, locks them inside, and runs away. She is then shocked to see both the authorities and police officers searching for her. Holding Zoon tightly, Indu wonders how she will escape.
