That woman was back again. I did not know her identity, but watching her strutting inside as if she owned our house was enough to scare me. She haughtily entered carrying the evil intentions with herself.

Ayesha's eyes twinkled with excitement before she rushed to that woman. ”Mom.” She threw herself at that woman's arms, complaining like a child who had been wronged, ”Eshan is blaming Aunty when his wife is at fault. He's cutting his relationship with aunty because of this s***.”

Mom? She was Ayesha's mother. She should be in states right now, how could she be here? Moreover, how she had come with Eshan's mother that day?

S***? Did Ayesha dare to degrade me like this?

I had enough. I could not say anything to Eshan's mother, but this girl— she played dirty. I stood up, quivering as I did so. I moved one step at a time.

Coming before mother and daughter pair, I did something which I did not expect myself.

Slap.

A sound of palm connecting with the human flesh echoed in our living room.

I looked at Ayesha with a challenging look, though I might not look that intimidating with my current state of the sorry figure. My palm felt numb, but I felt quite good after landing a crisp slap at her face. I had my eyes fixed on Ayesha's shock filled eyes. She had not expected that I would slap her.

I could tolerate Eshan's mother's words for she was related to Eshan. But, I did not need to even think for this girl. I had been tolerant for so long because I thought she was his friend. However, after realizing her relationship with the woman, I knew she was nothing but a vile snake in a disguise.

She knew everything.

She knew about our marriage, yet she feigned surprise.

It was all an act. She played her character very well. She wasn't here to meet her childhood friend. Rather she was here to snatch him away. I could not stand her hypocrisy. What a double face woman or she had any face at all?

”How dare you slap my daughter? I'll make you pay for it,” her mother roared. She raised her hand, wishing to pay me back.

At that moment, I was pulled back into a warm chest. ”I dare you to try,” Eshan spoke through gritted teeth. He retreated a couple of steps, and again pushed me in the chair.

What was with him and the chair? Maybe, it was the presence of Ayesha's mom or my limit of taking things was crossed, but I did not cry anymore. I did not want these two women to take satisfaction in hurting me. I would not give them a chance. All these days, I had kept quiet because I wanted to save Eshan from hurt, but he now knew everything. Why should I keep quiet now?

That was the reason; I dared to lay hand on that girl when she degraded me with that word.

”Mom!” Ayesha aggrievedly cried, holding the side of her face. That must have hurt her for I did not hold back. I had used all the force and because of what had happened earlier all my emotions transformed into the rage and used it to show her what I could do if wanted.

Ayesha's mother patted her back. ”Don't worry Sha… I'll make sure that she pays for laying a hand on you.” She glared at me and Eshan.
