In Love Again 52: A SEALED KISS
Simon sat silently in the car that drove him back to the Walkers’ mansion as he went through a series of documents on his iPad. Asher who had made it his job to drive him, glance at him from time to time through the rearview mirror but didn't say anything. He had noticed how oddly silent Simon had been since he got to work that morning, and as much as he wanted to ask what had happened, he knew to restrain himself. If Simon wanted him to know he would have told him. At least he knew that much from following him all these years. Simon let out a sigh and looked out the window at the bustling city as the car rode by and he suddenly felt slightly irritated. In fact, he had been feeling this irritated since breakfast this morning. He was too irritated to involve himself in the drama that had ensued that morning. He couldn't stand seeing schemers pretending to be innocent. "Take me to Alvira's home." He suddenly said and Asher was a little shocked, but he still obeyed turning the car a
In Love Again 53: IN LOVE AGAIN
Alvira's eyes widened with shock and her whole body stiffened when she felt the soft lips press against hers. His lips were softer than she imagined and even though she had fanaticized so much about kissing him, she was still shocked that he would voluntarily take the initiative. Did he just.... kiss her? Does this mean he also felt the same as her? She wondered as she blinked continuously. Before she could come back to her senses, Simon pulled away and looked at her as if nothing had just happened. "Stop being stubborn and let me treat your injury." He said and Alvira's mouth dropped open. She was being stubborn? Was something wrong with this man? How can he call her stubborn in this situation? How can he act like nothing just happened? He clearly just... Her other hand went up to touch her lips which still felt warm and a little swollen from the invasion, as she stared at Simon who was back to wrapping her injury with the bandage, his face looking serious. If not for the warmth
In Love Again 54: CERTAINLY SOMETHING THERE
Alvira couldn’t calm her breathing until she entered her home and shut the door behind her. She rested her back on the door and held her hand to her chest as she claimed her breathing. This man was going to be the death of her.The day had started out terribly, at first, she had thought it was one of the worse days of her life, but now she wasn’t so sure she could still term it as that. It had ended in a way different from what she had expected. First, she had thought he would scold her for the morning drama but instead, he had kissed her, twice and confessed that he loved her! The first kiss was still okay, one could assume it was something that happened in the spore of the moment. In fact, that had been what she had expected him to say when he claimed he was in love with someone else, but then he claimed to love her and had kissed her again, and the moment he did that, she seem to have lost all her reasoning, and since then even until now that she stood in her home, she still did
In Love Again 55: FORMING AN ALIANCE
"Do you really think Clarisse would go as far as poisoning Simon?" Sarah suddenly asked and the happy atmosphere suddenly seem to become gloomy. "I am not sure, but she seemed rather enthusiastic about sending Alvira away," Ben said with a frown, Sarah thought of all that had happened that day and felt unhappy.“You’re right. It was almost as if they had some personal argument of their own. Clarisse kept on accusing and pushing us to fire her continuously.” She commented and Ben nodded in agreement.At the time when Alvira had broken the teapot, Clarisse had been the first person to react. Even while everyone was still stunned wondering what had happened, she seem to have been more mad than shocked and even after that, she was still the one who accused Alvira and pointed out the fact that she had a reason for doing such a thing and had stated what her reasons were.Now that she thought of it, it was obvious, that Clarisse had taken advantage of the fact she and Ben hated indiscipline

Just as Clarisse and Lara agreed to become a team, a knock resounded on the door and they shared a glance.“It is time,” Clarisse said happily then strolled to the door and opened it, but didn’t let the maid come in like she always does, instead she stepped out.“How may I help you?” She asked sweetly and the maid blushed.“Good evening Mrs. Stone. Madam Sarah, request your presence in the living room.” She said and Clarisse nodded.“I would be there soon.” The maid nodded and left, Clarisse stood on the spot and watched her leave before she returned to the room where Lara sat listening to her conversation with the maid silently. She looked up at Clarisse, "Listen to me Mrs. Stone, you have to tell her the truth and be ready to leave the mansion. If you do, then they would be less suspicious and I would be able to not only get but also give you the information you need easily." She said and Clarisse giggled.“Oh, of course, I do plan on telling them the truth. My own version anyway
In Love Again 57: DISCOVERING THE WALKERS' SECRET
Alvira woke up to a call from Madam Sarah the next morning, she frowned slightly as she walked out of the bathroom with her toothbrush still in her mouth, she looked at the caller ID and picked it up. "Hello, madam?" "Hello Alvira," Sarah greeted as she glanced at Ben who gave her an approving nod and she sighed, "Can we meet? I would like to discuss something with you." She informed and Alvira frowned as she couldn't guess what they would be talking about. It was most likely that Simon already told them about the poisoning, so there wasn’t really much for them to talk about. "Should I come to the mansion?" She asked. "No, I would send you the venue and the time. Please be there on time." She said and Alvira sighed. "Okay, Madam." Madam Sarah hung up and turned to Ben, "It's done. Do you think it would work?" She asked with enthusiasm and Ben nodded."We have to try our best and leave the rest to fate," Ben said and Sarah nodded. She picked up her phone again and sent a messa
In Love Again 58: A SET UP 1
Alvira stood in front of the sky-high restaurant and frowned. When she had gotten the text from Madam Sarah that they were to meet at Lakeview restaurant, she had been a little confused. Why Lakeview? The restaurant was a place frequented by elites of all kinds, it was the one restaurant in the city where one could find celebrities, rich businessmen, and children of business tycoons all at the same time. Apart from the cost of food which was as high as the building, their customers were attended to according to the amount of money they were willing to pay. Thus one can say, the more you pay, the better the service you were rendered. That was the most popular slogan of Lakeview restaurant after all.It was a place that people like her could not even dream of going to, rather they would settle for hearing of it in adverts or online gossip. Now that she was standing here, set to have dinner here with Madam Sarah, it was more like a dream and she wasn’t sure if this was going to be a
In Love Again 59: A SET UP 2
No one bothered to speak during the elevator ride, Asher only looked at Alvira who was mad at Simon, and Simon who was lost in thought as he tried to wonder who would dare steal Alvira from him. In his opinion she was not like Lana. he wasn't going to let her go even if she loves someone else. He was going to cling to her until she falls head over heels in love with him. And if he doesn't succeed he was going to keep trying. After all, the only thing hindering him was his leg. That was the only thing the other party could have that he didn't, and didn't the doctor say he still had a chance at walking again?
