In Love Again 72: HER ACT OF LOVE
Alvira walked out of the exam hall amidst a crowd of students, all discussing the difficulty level of the just concluded paper with their friends. She only sighed in agreement as those around her complained of how hard the paper was.“Alvira, how was your exam?” Grace, her bedmate asked as she caught up with her.It’s been two weeks since they started their exams and since she had moved into the school dormitory to squat with Grace. Her mother had convinced her to do this the week her exams were about to start, to be precise, she told her to stay in school to prevent distractions. But she knew that the distractions her mother was referring to were simply Simon and any news about him. Her mother had not stopped scolding him since she came home from her dinner date with Jared three weeks ago. She even told her to stop going to work at the Walkers’ mansion and she listened and never went back there. Even if her mother hadn’t informed her to stop, she would still not go back there. She

Barrister Mike Barnes, sat down in the almost empty courtroom staring absentmindedly at the file in front of him, he had been a lawyer for almost ten years now, had started his firm a while back, and up until now, this was the first case he was sure he was going to lose and it was so heartbreaking because he knew what kind of person Simon was, he knew he was innocent, but he couldn’t defend him. All his life as a lawyer, he had never felt this helpless.He looked up at the empty judge’s seat and sighed, the case was a little hard because right from the onset, the opinion of the public had been against him, he knew that even the judge was filled with prejudice, so he was attacked left and right making things difficult for him even during the court session but he didn’t blame anyone, he could only attribute his failure this time to lack of enough time for proper investigation. He was not going to give up here, he was going to file for a retrial if they lost the case. He was going to sav

The day came without many scruples and the world was excited to see how the case would play out, live cameras were stationed in the courtroom and all the required parties were seated present, including Simon Walker who sat in his wheelchair with a bandage around his head as ordered by his lawyer watching the whole case unfold. The case started with Barrister Mike attributing Simon’s absence in the last court session to his automobile accident with evidence and a lot of people breathed a sigh of relief including the netizens watching live who had been bashing Simon for having no sense of respect for the law.Many who were fans of Simon Walker, breathed a sigh of relief. Knowing that Simon Walker did not disregard the court and the law made them happy, the few who were having a hard time believing the news that had been circulating the internet for the past two days that Simon might be innocent began to believe.Maybe he’s not a bad person after all, some people began to think, barrist

Edgar’s face paled at the words he heard Miller say, so he, who had been classified as a just man since the beginning of the case, was here supporting criminals and trying to put an innocent man in jail? He glanced at Simon who was sitting in his box watching the entire drama unfold as if it had nothing to do with him and sighed. There must be nothing new about what was happening right now for this man. He glanced at Mike who was doing the questioning and he felt like he finally knew why Mike was better than himself, it was simple, he had better eyes. He dropped the pen in his hand in resignation and rested back in his chair determined to watch the rest of the court session, he had no other argument.“Miss Miller, no one is judging you, I only asked if you knew the man in the video,” Mike asked again, obviously unbothered by Miller’s weeping, as all the other people watching her were. In fact, a lot of people now felt irritated by her weeping.“Yes.”“Who is he?’”“Mr. Joshua Stone!”

From the top floor of a high-end restaurant, Lana who had been following the whole drama online sighed and put her iPad aside, “What a lively day,” She commented in a bored manner.She had always known Joshua was a scheming person, he had been scheming against the Walkers for a long time and had had his eyes on their family property as far back as when she and Simon were still in college but she never bothered about him because she knew he could not beat Simon. As long as Simon was still alive and kicking, a man like Joshua was not his match. Unlike Joshua who schemed senselessly, Simon was thorough. He was not just born into a rich family, he knew how to make wealth and use his wealth and power for his own benefit.The only thing about him was that he was not ambitious at all, which she didn’t mind when they were together as she was an ambitious one herself, it was not good for two spouses to be ambitious at the same time, if not they would dig out each other’s edges. So in her eyes

An apartment on the 22nd floor of a high-end community was in a mess, Clarisse ran around the house urgently, picking expensive things and stuffing them into her suitcase according to their sizes. When she was done, she hid the things which were too big to pack in a secluded place in the living room. She rushed to the bedroom and continued her frantic packing, she opened Josh’s drawer with force and the flower vase neatly placed on it fell with a crash which startled her. She paused for a second, then began to rummage through the drawer, packing the cash, and gold bars that Josh had into her handbag when she suddenly heard someone inputting the password to the house at the door. Her eyeballs shrank in fear, she shut the drawer, zipped her suitcases, and hid them under the bed alongside her handbag, looked around the room for any evidence of her packing but found none, she sighed and calmed her breathing. She grabbed Josh’s baseball bat as she heard the frantic footsteps of the perso

“Yes, I understand. Thank you for your help inspector.” Asher said and hung up the phone.He glanced at the beautiful garden from the balcony of the private restaurant and sighed before walking back into the room where Simon was having a celebration lunch with barrister Mike and Mr. Gabriel. The room was designed in a medieval Japanese style, with white curtains and a sliding door. The scent of fresh flowers blew into the room from the garden, the white curtains rustling with the breeze, and the three men sat around a rotating dining table filled with various Japanese dishes. This place was barrister Mike’s favorite place and to please him, Simon had invited him here for a ‘thank you’ meal.Simon looked up the moment Asher walked into the room, “How was it?” Simon asked and Asher nodded.“He's been arrested,” Asher answered and Simon nodded with satisfaction.“That’s good. I would waste no time in making sure he pays for every one of his crimes. But before that…,” Mike said with a sm

The ride to Alvira’s home took about fifteen minutes from where they were, Simon helped himself out of the car the moment it came to a stop and stopped Asher who was about to follow, “I think it’s better if I go alone.” He told him and Asher nodded, returning into the car and watching him go to the house himself.The house was dark inside when he looked at the windows but Simon still decided to knock even though he guessed there was no one there. He knocked twice but received no response, and wanted to knock one more time when someone spoke up behind him.“Why are you here?” He heard Emily’s voice and turned around to see her stern unsmiling face staring at him seriously. She was obviously just coming back from her part-time job with the way he saw things.“Good evening aunt….”“What do you want?” Emily interrupted him directly, not caring for his greeting.“I…” He glanced at the dark house behind him, “I came to see Alvira?”“What for? You think you haven’t caused her enough damage a

In Love Again EPILOGUE
In a small town somewhere in Australia, Clarisse walked down the snow-covered street vigilantly, dressed in heavy padded jackets with a scarf covering her face tightly. She had been hiding here since she escaped the country and had been listening to the news of Josh and Lana in the country.Hearing of Josh’s death, she was more than excited, she was even glad that she had left him at the time she did, if not, only God knows what would have happened to her now, as for Lana that delusional bitch, hehe. Serves her right. She rang the bell of her home, a small apartment where she lived with her boyfriend who she had found in her first week in this town. He was handsome and romantic and he just made her happy. She rang the bell continuously wondering why he was not opening the door. She walked to the one place where they kept the spare house key, under a stone slab by the door but the key wasn’t there. She tried calling him but his phone was unreachable, so she knew she had no choice but
In Love Again 95: THE FINAL STRUGGLE 4
It was obvious that Josh had finally lost his mind and was trying to get everyone killed. Lana looked around from her hiding place in search of Simon. In this situation, if she could escape with Simon, it would be great. She thought, forgetting that she was wanted by the law. Just as she saw him and wanted to crawl to his side, Josh also saw her, this woman owed him a blood debt, and she dared ruin his plan. He thought with anger as he saw many of his men fall to the ground dead, he also wanted her dead.He aimed for her head. At that moment Lana felt a sense of crisis, looked behind her, and saw him pointing the gun at her. Her eyes widened in panic. Josh smiled at her, he hoped she would regret ever talking down on him.“No!” Lana screamed before the gun was shot and she was silenced forever, a bullet hole in her head. Even until her death, she was looking towards Simon with longing, failing to realize he was not the perfect man she envisioned. He was a man with flaws just like ev
In Love Again 94: THE FINAL STRUGGLE 3
Minutes before the gunshot, Simon walked into the building flagged by Josh’s men, unaware that they had been followed by Asher and that the police were not far behind. The hideout was an abandoned food processing factory in an area marked for demotion in town, no one could have guessed that criminals were hiding in such an unstable environment. He followed the men into the not-so-tidy office that must have been the director’s when the factory was still functioning and saw Josh who he hadn’t seen in the past three weeks seated there with a smirk on his face.“Hello cousin, happy to see me?” Josh, who was resting back in the chair, his arms spread out and a happy smirk plastered on his face asked.Simon didn’t care about him or the men surrounding him, he didn’t even care if Josh wouldn’t allow him to leave this place alive, all he wanted to know was if Alvira was safe and sound.“I have what you want,” Simon said seriously as he placed the black box on the creaking table before lookin
In Love Again 93: THE FINAL STRUGGLE 2
Alvira felt herself sink to the bottom of the transparent tank the moment she landed in, only then did she notice that the rope tied around her waist was inlaid with sandbags to keep her at the bottom and made swimming to the surface hard.She tried to swim upward but it felt as if she was only expending her energy wastefully, while Lana laughed at her from without.Lana knocked on the wall of the tank, drawing Alvira’s attention to herself, before going to pick up a chalk and a board and wrote, “Didn’t you say you would rather die than let my plans work? What then are you struggling to survive for? If you die, Simon might just be free from me forever.” She wrote with a smile and the struggling Alvira paused.It was true. If she survived, what was she surviving for? Wasn’t it for Lana to keep on playing with her, hurting Simon and causing him to do things that he shouldn’t do? What was she living for if she was nothing but a weakness to the man she loved? She thought and suddenly fel
In Love Again 92: THE FINAL STRUGGLE 1
Detective Peter frowned uneasily as he stared at the location where the van had been seen, which was marked on the GPS map. It was about an hour ride away from the St. Joseph hospital and out of town, he didn’t understand why these men would come to a damaged car garage with Alvira.There was no hidden place to keep her there, so why bring her? Was some kind of exchange supposed to go on there? Why did he feel something was off? He was wondering when he got Asher’s call, when he heard Asher’s question he felt even more flustered and confused, was there something he was missing? He picked up his phone and called Kalvin.“Hello? Are you with Simon?”“Yes sir, he had an emergency, so I went to get the doctor for him,” Kalvin told him.“Okay,” That’s understandable, “But your Lane is with him right?”“...No sir, he went to get Mr. Simon something to eat.”“So you mean no one is with Simon at the moment?”“We…ll, yes sir…”“What!” Peter shouted and the detectives in the same car as him lo
In Love Again 91: TAKEN 2
“Josh! Josh!” Jared walked into the slightly messy but old office with anger just as Josh got off the phone with Simon. “Are you messing with me right now? Why didn’t you tell me when you got Alvira? It’s been five hours.”Josh's eyes flashed with impatience before he turned to Jared with a smile, “What are you so worked up about? I obviously tried to call you but the call was not going through.” Josh said as he placed another call.“Hello? It’s me. I need a huge diversion. One big enough to get those detectives out of the hospital.”Jared's face darkened when he heard the content of the call, “You are planning to send Simon over?”Josh glanced at him but didn’t respond immediately, he ended his call before turning to him, “Calm down Jared, we are all partners now. The least you can do is trust me.”“Trust you? You didn’t even call me over when you got her and now Simon is coming here. How can I trust you when I don’t know what exactly you are planning?” Jared asked unhappily. “If I
In Love Again 90: TAKEN 1
It’s been a week since Simon was shot and life became more peaceful than anyone expected. Josh and Lana disappeared from the eyes of the public and the police investigation was hitting a dead end everywhere. Their whereabouts could not be found and it was obvious that some powerful people were helping them, but those helping them could not be discovered either.For Alvira life was pretty much good, she and Simon were reconciled and they were even more attached than they used to be in the past. She guessed that when people go through challenges together, their feelings for each other get deeply rooted. Simon was still forcefully hospitalized, as his hand was still in the cast, and the new physiotherapist didn’t trust him to be careful with his leg even though it was fine. As much as she wanted to stay with him at the hospital, she also needed to rush back to school to finish her exams.She walked out of a high-end restaurant, with takeout bags in her hand followed by the detectives th
In Love Again 89: A JOINT PLOT

The police, during their investigation however discovered that Joshua Stone, a highly wanted criminal, working hand-in-hand with a woman called Lana Jones, daughter of the millionaire, Mr. George Jones was the culprit in yesterday’s shootout.

You. Shot. Simon? Why did you shoot Simon?! The one you were supposed to shoot was Alvira! That was the plan! That was why I got you out of jail?!”“Stop freaking out! You were there, weren’t you? He took the bullet for her, couldn’t you see that? He took it for her before my man could shoot her down.”“That’s a lie!
In Love Again 88: RECONCILED
The next time Simon opened his eyes, he was in his private ward at St Joseph Hospital. He looked around confused, tried to sit up, and was immediately helped by Sarah who had arrived at one point in time.“Grandma? What are you doing here?”“Silly child, what do you mean what am I doing here? I am your family.”“Yes.., yes, I know. I am sorry.” Simon looked around the room, “Alvira…, where is she?”“She’s fine. She’s giving her statement to the police as we speak and your grandpa went with her, I must say, you did a good job this time. Alvira finally forgave you.” Sarah teased as she nodded towards his casted hand which was hung to his neck.Simon followed her line of sight and sighed helplessly. His grandma was always like this, trying to cheer a patient with the weirdest joke. “Grandma, I didn’t wish to get shot at.”“But it was still a good thing in disguise, wasn't it?” She winked and smiled.The door to the ward opened and Alvira walked in, seeing Simon awake in bed she rushed to
