After he leaves, he writes a letter to Rekha saying that he still loves her. Rekha hides the letter from Vinod. But Vinod finds it causing her to start doubting Rekha. Vinod and Rekha go shopping and Rekha misplaces her handbag. Knowing that the handbag contains Ajith's letter, Rekha rushes to retrieve it and finds another letter asking for 50000 Rs in return for the letter. Rekha leaves the money in a lift as told in the letter. But does not get her letter back. After this incident, Vinod confirms Rekha's affair. He hires Robert again to kill Rekha by showing him the pictures taken when he killed Menon. Robert enters the house on New Year's Eve when Ajith and Vinod go to a party.
