Someone Will Snatch You Away!

Perhaps Isha did not have any hopes, so she did not have many expectations. Suddenly knowing that she had parents and family, she felt distant.

She thought of everything she'd been through since she was a child. The good and the bad had gradually dissipated with the wind.

And now that she had a nice little family of her own, she was suddenly sent another family...

In her memory, Chanchal, who had been good to her, had already left long ago. Meanwhile, her relationship with Sunaina Rathore seemed too ordinary. She had never thought of treating Sunaina Rathore as her mother.

On the other hand, when she was with Riya Rathore that day and was suddenly hugged by Riya Rathore, she couldn't refuse for a moment. She vaguely didn't hold any resistance toward Riya Rathore. That very subtle feeling at that time made her almost addicted.

Riya's appearance appeared in her mind, and Isha really couldn't just ignore her.

It was a strong feeling, a very different feeling from her past experiences... She was a little shaken.

"Isha?"

Shivam's voice rang in Isha's ears. She blinked. The man's face was already in front of her. Then, her body was lifted into the air.

"You didn't hear me calling you several times, but I don't mind carrying you upstairs." Shivam picked her up and strode toward the elevator.

Isha blushed and felt warm in her heart. She put her arms around his slender and sexy neck, burying her head in his chest.

...

Jayesh Chauhan did not manage to acknowledge his daughter tonight and was obviously disappointed. After getting into the car, he did not say a word.

Jay Chauhan followed him into the car and remained silent as well. His father had been very strict with him since he was young. Usually, when his mother was not around, they spoke very little to each other.

After a long time, Jayesh Chauhan said, "Do you know what's going on between Isha and Shivam Pratap?"

"They're married," he said honestly.

"..." Jayesh Chauhan clenched his fists slightly.

The anger in his heart rose, feeling as though his treasure had been snatched away by another. He felt extremely stifled.

"Who allowed them to get married?" Jayesh Chauhan's tone was unfriendly. His thick eyebrows were almost knotted together. It was impossible to smoothen them out.

Jay Chauhan asked calmly, "Did they need anyone's permission?"

"..." Jayesh Chauhan felt stifled again.

His daughter had been living outside for more than 20 years. He had already carefully read through Isha's experiences over the years. Every time he read the report, he couldn't help but feel a sharp pain in his heart. The word that appeared the most was actually 'orphanage'.

She had no family before this, so she naturally didn't need anyone's permission to get married.

His daughter, the daughter who made his wife's heart ache for more than 20 years, had actually been left in an orphanage since childhood!

He hated the Sharma family to the core and immediately sent people to cause trouble for them.

Unexpectedly, the Sharma family had already gone bankrupt. Now, the three of them were even worse off than ordinary people. He really had nowhere to vent his anger.

The only thing he was looking for now was the identity of the person who carried Isha away back then!

...

Isha thought about many things that night and fell asleep in a daze.

When morning came, the sun shone through the windows and filled the room with warmth and brilliance. Gungun started running around the room early in the morning. Abhay was beside him, occasionally helping him clean up the mess.

Shivam was wearing beige casual home clothes and watching the financial news.

Isha's mood improved instantly, and the depression she felt from last night completely disappeared. The bright light in her eyes returned.

After breakfast and sending the two little kids to the class, Shivam didn't go to the company. Instead, he accompanied Isha at home.

Isha frowned slightly and said, "According to Director Chauhan last night, I was taken away after I was born. Then why wasn't I the one who died but another child? They also ruled out the possibility that Riya Rathore had twins. Who took me away back then?"

This was also a question that Shivam was thinking about. He said, "Do you have any other photos in the Sharma family's house?"

"No. My adoptive mother passed away early, and I was often sent back to the orphanage. I can't find any other photos. You mean, if we can still find those photos and prove that I had really lived with Sunaina Rathore... Then it's possible that Sunaina Rathore was the one who carried me away?"

"That's very likely. Didn't you say before that Sunaina Rathore and Riya Rathore were pregnant at the same time? If there was something wrong with Sunaina's child, it was possible she exchanged her child with you to get a healthy child. After all, one more child means one more inheritance."

Isha thought of Sunaina Rathore and her interactions with her. She said in a low voice, "I really can't remember any details about my interactions with her. It seems that she really doesn't have any feelings for me. When Yami needed to donate her kidney, she was the one who objected and stopped her the most..."

"In other words, she should have known long ago that you don't share her blood. She was afraid that if you were to donate Yami a kidney, your blood would be checked for problems, so she tried her best to dissuade you. Therefore, you were indeed the lost child living in the Tiwari family back then. It's just that Sunaina Rathore took you away from Riya Rathore's side." Shivam put everything together and analyzed the pieces of information one by one before summarizing these words.

What he said made sense and touched on the truth of the matter.

Isha approved of his analysis.

However, it had been so long since the incident, and they still lacked strong evidence.

If Sunaina Rathore was really that vicious and would do anything to gain benefits, then it was no wonder that the Rathore family had always had a grudge against her and were unwilling to truly accept her.

Shivam took out his phone and called Hari, asking him to go to the hospital where Isha was born to look for information.

As more than 20 years had passed, it was a little difficult to find out many things. However, since there were already clues, it was impossible to hide anything anymore.

"I want to see Riya Rathore," Isha said after he finished instructing Hari.

"I'll go with you." Shivam didn't object. He could feel that the family of three's feelings for Isha were sincere.

Although he was unwilling to share Isha with two more men, if that love was from the bottom of their hearts, he didn't mind Isha getting more love.

Isha called Jay Chauhan.

Jay Chauhan picked up the call the first second it rang.

"Hello, Isha."

"It's me, Director Chauhan. I think—"

The phone on the other end was obviously snatched away, followed by Jayesh Chauhan's voice. "Ishi, it's me. Is there something you want to say?"

Isha couldn't help but put her hand to her forehead. She had taken a good look at this man last night. He was elegant and very refined. He carried a power but also gentleness that came with age. Young people couldn't be compared to him.

But why was his personality so different from his appearance?

"Ishi? Ishi, are you still listening?"

"I'm listening."

"Okay. Ishi, what can I do for you?"

"I'd like to meet... Mrs. Chauhan." Isha felt a little overwhelmed by the enthusiasm on the other end of the line.

Even through the phone, she could feel how deeply urgent the other party was.

Jay Chauhan stood at the side and was speechless. He had only seen his father treat his mother like this and thought that he would never treat anyone else like this again. Now that his sister was back, it proved the fact that his status in the family was really at the bottom.

"Sure, sure. Then I'll arrange for a car to pick you up." Jayesh Chauhan's voice was slightly hoarse on the other end of the line, but his volume was raised and he was obviously excited.

Isha could only agree.

She put down her phone and looked at Shivam helplessly. Shivam had also heard the overly loud voices on the phone. He rubbed his eyebrows and said, "As far as I know, the head of Chauhan Consortium has always been clean and strict. Did we get the wrong person?"

Isha laughed. "Maybe."

"Why do I feel like I'm in a very dangerous situation?"

"Hmm? Why?"

"I feel like someone will snatch you away at any time." Shivam looked serious and sighed softly.

Isha reached out and hugged his strong waist. "That depends on whether I agree or not. I'm not a baby anymore. If someone wants to snatch me away, I'll hug you and not let go."

Pleased, Shivam's eyes lit up. He reached out and pulled her into his arms. He kissed her deeply, making her breathless.

...

Although Jayesh Chauhan said that he had arranged for a car to pick Isha up, he actually personally came with the driver.

It was rare for Isha to take the initiative to see Riya Rathore. As her father, he was also happy.

He adjusted his clothes. His mood was probably similar to when he first went on a date with Riya Rathore. Although his expression was calm, his heart was already surging.

His usual coldness and seriousness were probably established after his daughter 'died young'.

"Don't go overboard when you see your daughter. Don't scare her," Riya Rathore reminded him over the phone.

"Of course. When I saw her last night, I was quite natural and normal."

Riya Rathore smiled. "I don't know what she likes to eat. I didn't prepare anything at all."

"I'll send her preferences to you immediately."

"How would you know all that?"

"I searched online, and her fans all know her preferences," Jayesh Chauhan said confidently.

Riya Rathore was in a particularly good state of mind. It was just that when she found out about this that night, she cried too much and her body was a little weak. That was why Jayesh Chauhan did not allow her to come out. She had to stay at home to rest. He did not want his wife to fall ill again after they had just acknowledged their daughter.

Riya Rathore smiled and said, "I'll get Jay to buy the groceries now. Also, our daughter might still feel awkward. Don't ask too many questions and interfere in her personal matters..."

"I understand," Jayesh Chauhan replied calmly. "I can sense that she and I will become close very quickly."

"Where did you get the confidence?"

"I was with her for the 10 months she was in your womb, talking to her every night. This kind of bond won't be buried with time." Jayesh Chauhan's voice was filled with emotion but not without strength.

Riya Rathore was stunned, and her tears almost came out again.

At this moment, Jayesh Chauhan's confidence collapsed when he saw Isha and Shivam snuggling up together while waiting for his car.

Isha was wearing a mask and stood beside Shivam. He put his hand on her waist and hugged her protectively.

The car stopped beside them. The driver got out and opened the door. Shivam and Isha got in together.

When they got into the car, they realized that Jayesh Chauhan had also come over.

"Mr. Chauhan," Shivam greeted him first.

"...Mr. Chauhan." Isha didn't know how to address him, so she could only use the same form of address as Shivam.

Disappointment flashed across Jayesh Chauhan's cold eyes, but he didn't say anything. He sized up Shivam's face and couldn't help but frown.

'I'm not too happy with this son-in-law.'

If Isha had grown up in the Chauhan family all along, Jayesh Chauhan would not have been willing to marry his daughter so early and insist on her staying in their family for a few more years.

Moreover, a big family like the Pratap family was full of trouble. Jayesh Chauhan could not bear to see his daughter marry into the Pratap family and suffer.

His serious face was very similar to his usual appearance. It was as if the person who answered Isha's call earlier was a fake Jayesh Chauhan.

Seeing that he didn't say anything, Isha found herself having an easier time. She didn't quite know what to do around warm people, but she was experienced in dealing with serious and cold people. There was no need to start a conversation. They could just maintain a tacit silence. Everyone would be comfortable.

Shivam stroked the back of Isha's hand gently to calm her down.

They arrived at the Rathore family's courtyard in silence.

Compared to Jayesh Chauhan's previous enthusiasm, Riya Rathore was much calmer. She did not personally welcome them. When Isha and Shivam arrived, she was brewing tea.

Today, Riya Rathore, who had changed into a dark Suit and was wearing a tasseled shawl, was in a very good mental state. There was a look of faint joy on her face. Her appearance was classic and dignified.

Unlike Isha had expected, she didn't come straight over and hug her. Instead, she got up and politely ushered them in to sit down at the table under the trellis.

Jayeah Chauhan and Riya Rathore sat together. When their gazes landed on Isha, they became gentle and doting.

Jay Chauhan leaned under the trellis, holding a teacup and sipping occasionally.

No one said anything, but the atmosphere was not awkward. It was as if the silence was comfortable and normal.

Riya Rathore looked at Isha gently, and Isha looked back into her eyes. Isha felt that it was really different facing Riya Rathore than when she faced Sunaina Rathore.

In the Tiwari family, other than Old Master Tiwari, Isha always felt that she was just a passerby and did not blend in.

Here, she felt different as if she'd been born to belong. She didn't feel repelled. On the contrary, she felt that her presence here was normal.

Riya Rathore continued to stare at Isha just like this. As she looked, her eyes turned red, then tears kept falling.

Isha stood up, walked in her direction, and gently hugged her. A look of pleasant surprise flashed across Riya Rathore's face.

...

After lunch at Riya's place, Isha went to see Old Madam Rathore, Hans Rathore, and the others.

Compared to when she was Sunaina Rathore's daughter, their treatment of her was completely different.

Even Shivam was interrogated for a long time. No one in the family could bear to see Isha get married just like that.
