Chapter 171 - Bungalow Number Zero

The moment Om's car reached the gates of Indraprastha Bungalows, one of the gatekeepers immediately walked toward the vehicle and politely asked,

"Sir, may I know why you're entering? Are you here to meet someone or for some other reason?"

Hearing him, Om quietly took out a card and showed it to the guard.

It was a black card with golden borders and elegant golden detailing over it.

The second the gatekeeper saw the card, his expression changed instantly.

He straightened himself and saluted Om respectfully.

"Welcome, Mr. Om. Your bungalow is fully prepared. We had it completely cleaned yesterday, and all the things you requested have already been placed inside."

Then with a smile, he added,

"Welcome to Indraprastha Bungalows."

As soon as he finished speaking, the massive gates slowly opened.

Om and Harsh drove their cars inside the enormous island-like residential area.

And the moment the Ahuja family entered…

Everyone was stunned.

The place looked breathtaking.

There were around twenty-one luxurious bungalows inside the entire property, and every single one was built like its own private island.

A narrow canal flowed around each house, separating it from the roads and pathways. On the other side of the water stood beautiful modern bungalows filled with every luxury imaginable.

Private gardens.

Swimming pools.

Open terraces.

Beautiful lighting.

And countless other facilities.

From Bungalow Number 20 all the way till Number 5, every house had been designed beautifully in the same style.

But from Number 5 to Number 1…

The bungalows became larger, grander, and even more luxurious.

By now, the entire Ahuja family had become completely mesmerized.

None of them could believe they were actually going to live in a place like this.

Far away from the noise and chaos of the city…

A place where they would wake up to the sounds of birds instead of traffic.

A place surrounded by greenery and fresh air.

And just behind the colony, a dense forest began, making the entire area feel like nature itself had wrapped the place in its arms.

And honestly…

In today's world, where technology had swallowed almost every peaceful part of life, a place like this felt priceless.

As the cars moved deeper inside the colony, the family noticed even more facilities.

A massive gym.

A huge sports hall.

A kids' play area.

A theme park.

A beautiful central garden.

Even a private theater.

Seeing all this luxury together left the entire Ahuja family speechless.

Even Vijay, despite being a successful doctor, knew very well that a place like this was beyond what he could ever afford.

But today…

He felt proud.

Proud that his nephew had achieved something this massive in such a short time.

Suddenly, Riya excitedly shouted from inside the car,

"Wow, Om! This place is so beautiful! Living here is going to be so much fun!"

Her eyes sparkled brightly.

"It feels like one of those doll palaces!"

Everyone laughed softly after hearing her excitement.

Meanwhile, Om continued driving past Bungalow Number 20… then 15… then 10…

And still, he didn't stop.

Soon they crossed Bungalow Number 5…

Then Number 4…

Then Number 3…

Finally, Soumya couldn't control herself anymore.

"Om! We've already reached Bungalow Number 3, but we still haven't reached our house!"

She looked at him suspiciously.

"Tell us already—which one is ours?"

Om simply looked at her and smiled mischievously.

Then slowly…

He drove past Bungalow Number 3…

Past Number 2…

And finally stopped near Bungalow Number 1.

The moment the car halted there, Soumya almost jumped in excitement.

"Number One?!"

Her eyes widened.

"That means this is our house?! Wow, Om!"

But Om was clearly enjoying teasing her.

Because the next second—

He smiled again…

And slowly drove the car forward.

Instantly, everyone inside the car froze in confusion.

Because ahead of them…

Only one bungalow remained.

And that wasn't just any bungalow.

It was the most expensive and luxurious bungalow in the entire Indraprastha property.

Bungalow Number 0.

A place so exclusive that even its price alone was enough to shock people.

A few moments later, the cars finally stopped in front of Bungalow Number 0.

And the entire family stepped out in silence.

Because the sight before them was unbelievable.

The bungalow was far larger than all the others combined.

A massive entrance gate stood proudly outside, with elegant security cabins built on both sides.

Even from the outside, the bungalow looked so stunning that anyone seeing it for the first time would instantly fall in love with it.

At that moment, the gatekeeper from Vijay's old residence—Vibhu Kaka—walked out from one of the cabins.

Seeing him there, Riya and Soumya instantly shouted in surprise,

"Vibhu Kaka?! You're here too?!"

Meanwhile, the rest of the Ahuja family stood there staring at the mansion in complete disbelief.

Compared to the other bungalows, this place looked entirely different.

The others felt like small private islands…

But this one—

This one looked like the king of them all.

As if dozens of tiny islands stood before one massive island ruling over them.

Or like a commander standing proudly before his army.

Everyone stared at the bungalow with shining eyes.

But the most excited among them all was Soumya.

She simply couldn't take her eyes off it.

Then suddenly, realization hit her.

Her eyes widened dramatically as she looked toward Om.

"Wait…"

Her voice almost cracked from excitement.

"You bought Bungalow Number Zero?!"

Om smiled softly and nodded.

Then looking toward his sisters lovingly, he said,

"Yes, my little sister…"

A warm smile spread across his face.

"Welcome to your new home."

And the moment those words landed—

Soumya screamed in excitement,

"Oh my God!!"

At the same time, everyone's eyes slowly shifted toward the elegant black-and-golden nameplate fixed beside the gate.

And written on it, in beautiful golden letters, was just one word—

"Sukoon."

Peace.
