If you willfully refused to receive the summons then as you had checked and confirmed the FIR is against you then attend the proceedings on the scheduled hearing dates and fight your case on their merits, regarding sec it should be 498a, mistaken it was written 498 .

Sec 406ipc is for criminal breach of trust, generally in matrimonial cases it is for stridhan, if you had returned her stridhan then 406 ipc is waived off, attend the court you will get the copy of fir read it carefully and then act accordingly.
