Poison

The side Character of Aisha's life was her biggest guilt. The first murder that she had committed and the one she could never escape from. He is the elder brother of her ex-husband, whom she killed by the order of her Mother-in-law.

Aditya Raichand. The rich, stunning, and ideal bachelor of the country. The hier of Raichand group and the most righteous man she had ever seen. Aditya had done nothing to deserve death at the hands of his own family. His only mistake was that he was the heir of the Khurana group instead of Arun.

"Excuse me!" Aditya tucked one of his hands inside the pocket of his hand and looked at Aisha, who had been staring at him since the last minute. "Are you done?" He raised his eyebrow. Aditya was used to women staring at him. Even though he hated it, he didn't have much of a choice but to ignore them all.

"I'm— I'm sorry." Aisha snapped out of her thoughts and said but she didn't move one inch. Aditya simply made his way for himself to the classic section of the bookshelf.

One day Aisha was busy studying about Raichand mansion and finances after finally marrying Arun in her third life. Her mother-in-law, Suhani Raichand dashed into her study room, pulled a chair from the corner, and sat opposite Aisha. Fearsome and young Aisha closed her book immediately to hear what her mother-in-law had to say.

Suhani threw a bag made of jute. Aisha opened the bag to find out that it contained a black powder. "This is?" She asked.

"Poison," Suhani replied, rubbing her fingernails to each other. " Use it."

Aisha jumped out of her seat slamming on the desk and asked, " On whom?" In a loud voice.

"Mind your voice." She glared at Aisha, who sat back down obeying her order. "Use it to kill Aditya."

"What?" Aisha was shocked. She always only saw Suhani acting like a real mother even though she was the stepmother of Aditya. She acted as if she was proud of her stepchild and loved him dearly. Aisha was in a delusion, how did she easily come to believe that the woman who bullied her severely would love anyone in this world except for her own child? She is like a lioness, who cares about no one but her own family. Everyone else is a prey to her.

"You will do this task today itself."

"Why do you want to kill him? What did he even do?"

Suhani got up and brought Aisha's face up by her chin, using the tip of her nail. "Darling, he will be getting the whole business next month according to my dear husband. He told me just today. How can I let that happen when my son will get nothing on the other hand?" She walked towards the door. " Up until now, I kept him alive for the sole reason of letting the business grow. So that it reaches a certain height when it is passed down to my son. "

" This is a murder. " Aisha cried.

" I know. " Suhani opened the door and went out but after a second popped her head through the opened door.

" And you will be the one conducting it. " She laughed and left the room.

How could she kill someone? Aisha had gone through a lot by then but still refused to kill. However, she very well knew if she didn't listen to her mother-in-law she would be locked in her room for days and receive torture from her all day long.

Suhani specifically loved abusing her servants and when Aisha came and found out that she was a weak, quiet, and timid girl, instead of treating her as her daughter, she started abusing her for every flaw she had. Aisha was never schooled and hence knew nothing about how to manage the house. Suhani had appointed a teacher for her who was also very abusive.

"Madam? Shall we proceed to the counter?" The Attendant asked. Aisha nodded her head and moved forward towards the counter.

After buying the books, Maya and Aisha finally left the mall back home. Aisha however, didn't want to return. She didn't want to go back to the hell of a house she had been going back to and then to that villainous House, marrying her murderer ex-husband. All the freedom, she had felt made her more and more weak and unwilling to return and see those assholes again.

'I definitely don't want to marry that bastard again. I have to find a way to run from this marriage. However, no matter how much I manipulate Dhananjay, he will never let go of his plan to eliminate the Raichand family from his route. I'm pretty sure he would have been happy every time I was killed in that house. His route would have cleared effortlessly. ' Aisha thought while staring outside the window not paying attention to the beautiful scenery flashing in front of her eyes.
