Mira’s Return Chapter fifty seven
I woke up at 11am on Kaira’s bed. It was the first time since I arrived in Dubai that I had slept in peace. I tossed with a yawn and found a mini notepad under her pillow. I fell back to bed, still dizzy and tired from the long day I had. Curiously, I opened my eyes. I was desperate to know what it contained. My eyes itched to see everything. As I sat up, my neck notified me I had slept without caution all night. I hissed slightly in pain as I gently massaged my neck. I opened the front page and I was disappointed. It was all of Gerald’s meeting days and preferred lunch dishes. These were notes from weeks ago. I flipped over and I saw a list of all the things that got me jealous. This was a personal schedule between Gerald and herself. My ego and feelings were ruined and my heart bleed. I saw different exciting things that I wished I was doing with her instead. This was the reason she couldn’t remember me. If I had given her those memories, she w

He rolled his eyes and it defined how aware he was about his physic. “Don’t think about anything”, he playfully poked my head gently. “You should rest”. He said trashing the pack of food. I pouted at him and he let out a sigh. I looked at him carefully and noticed his dark circles. “You haven’t been sleeping?” I asked gently. He kept the bouquet away and adjusted my bed. “I said you should rest, don’t think about me or anything “. It was like an order but I didn’t listen. “Why haven’t you been sleeping? Were you scared I was going to die?”, I asked with a cracked voice and a watery eye. He softened immediately. Slowly, he touched my hand. “You don’t have to cry, don’t do that”, he whispered. I nodded like a child and he wiped under my eyes. “You were right. I was scared, the sight of the acci….accident traumatized me for days. I am glad you fought through it”. I couldn’t hold back my tears. He had gone through so much because of me and it caused

A week later, Kaira and I were on our way to the airport. I checked my phone and as always there were numerous messages from Rubby. They were the least of my worries. I informed the manager through a text to get everyone at work the next day and get an acting secretary for me. I had called our family doctor to get a nurse through to Harry. He was to take her to Kaira’s apartment and get cleaners to clean it up for her. “Baby, are you ok?”, Kaira lifted her head from my shoulders. “Em. Yeah! I am fine, don’t worry about me”, I smiled and looked away. The accident had made Kaira extremely sensitive. She cared about every emotion, every word and everything. She asks questions about everything and anything. I wouldn’t deny how tiring and exhausting it was for me most times. We got down and we were led away from the usual route. “Why aren’t we waiting here like others?, she asked, clinging on to my sleeve tightly. “That’s because we are taking my per

Harry’s POV. “That will be all Elizabeth. Supervise the cleaning team and take care of things around here before they arrive”. She nodded and I walked out. I needed time to put my head in order. Since the incident at the hospital, my mind hasn’t been tamed. I knew seeing both of them together was going to mess things up more in my head. I drove back to my chamber where I resumed work. Lately, work has been the best distraction I needed. I flipped the pages of the file and a picture of Gerald cuddling Kaira popped fiercely in my head. My head tightened against itself. I shook my head to let it off but it didn’t feel any better. “Harrison, ignore!” I repeated it twice and over again till I felt better. I had consulted a doctor and a therapist on Kaira’s case and in all hopes she should start getting better in two or three months. That was my hold and reassurance. I wasn’t ready to let her off my life. I booked a therapy session for her once a week

Gerald’s POV. I leaned closer and she extended her lips. Before I could breath, her lips landed on mine. My mind and my lips had no conscience and minds of their own. I kissed her back, savoring every inch of her soft, plum lips. She moaned softly in my mouth and it was the most beautiful sound I have heard all day. “Knock, knock,knock “. The sound from the door distracted us. I quickly pulled away from Kaira as the nurse opened the door. “Ma’am, dinner is served”. Kaira tried to hide her embarrassment with a smile. She nodded and the nurse walked out. The awkward silence between us lasted for five seconds before I ended it. “You should go now”. Kaira nodded and walked out, she paused at the door to smile sweetly at me before walking out. As soon as she was out of sight, I punched the wall. “Fuck! Damn!! What the hell!”, I cursed loudly. I couldn’t explain how it happened but it happened. It was another form of guilty pleasure. I enj

Rubby’s Pov “I am going insane. Oh this is not fair”, I cried using the fifth paper towel. “Don’t say that Baby. You just have to be patient”. There again my mom is preaching her peace and patience movement. “Mom please”, I sniffed my nose. “I am tired of everything! I want to leave”. This was nothing but a lie. I wouldn’t leave my Gerald for any woman in this world. He had deliberately ignored me for weeks. “Why isn’t he at home, mom? Why?” I hugged my pillow and sobbed more. “His convoy left yesterday. It only means he is in town”. I wept more. “Baby, you have to come off it. Be strong and….”. The door cracked open and a maid stood by the door. “Good morning ma, Your husband is home”. I flew out of bed in a rush and almost missed my steps. I pushed the maid out of the way and rushed downstairs. I ignored the voice of my mom begging me to be careful. I rushed downstairs and to confirm my doubt, Gerald was sitting and having breakfast. T

Gerald’s POV. “Good evening boss”, Peter ran towards me to help with my bag. I looked around and noticed that the cars were parked the same way for two days. “Have you been here?” I asked, walking towards the driver's seat. “Yes boss, we are all waiting for you “. I smirked and tapped him on his shoulder. “Keys”. He handed over the Range Rover key to me and my bag. “Go home”. Peter nodded at my instructions and called out the team members. I zoomed off before they did. On my way, I stopped by a random barber shop and it was as expected. The tension and ovation was too extra. “Can I get a haircut in 20?” I asked anyone who cared to answer. A young man nodded and fixed a seat for me. “Thank you for coming here sir, it is a privilege and I appreciate it”. I smiled softly and in no time, he got working. The sound of camera clicks and giggling among his staff was the music in the room. I almost regretted not coming along with Peter. People a

“You can call me, whenever you miss me”, I added after typing my phone number on her phone. Kaira laughed and I was Surprised. “What?” “You would be getting calls every second. That’s whenever I miss you. Every second “. She whispered softly and bit her lower lip. I would be a liar to say she didn’t look sexy and tempting when she did that. Kaira was a candy bar I couldn’t wait to taste. “How are you?”, she asked, keeping the phone away and giving me full attention. It was comfort. She cared about me. “Why don’t I tell you that outside”, I winked. She was confused but I had a perfect evening planned for us. “Do you trust me?”, I asked, extending my hand. Kaira took it and followed me outside. I opened the car and helped her in. I got inside and turned on the car’s engine. “The last time you were riding with me, you almost smacked your head on the dashboard “. I sighed softly with a smile. “Really? Why?” She looked at me curiously. I leaned over a

“Can’t you do anything?” Mira wiped her eyes as she watched Gerald escorted by the wardens into prison. Harry squeezed her hand and sighed heavily. “He made his choice, he struck a deal in court and I hate how helpless I am”. His voice, filled with pain as he watched his brother out of sight. “It is funny” Mira laughed bitterly. “You always have someone who you share your day and wins with. Somebody who is willing to listen and make you feel better”. She sobbed softly. “You don’t realize how much they mean to you till the day they leave you”. Mira’s word struck Harry to the bones. He looks at space and memories of Elizabeth filled his mind. “Mira, I need to go” he announced, running back to his car. Mira stood outside the prison’s facility till Craig showed up. “How is he?” She asked him curiously. “He is fine. He asked me to give you this”. Craig handed Gerald’s bracelet to her before walking to his car. She held it closely to

Rubby hung her hand around me and hugged me tightly. “I am sorry”. She sniffed in my arms. I looked at my mom, she had a pity face on. I signaled her to come over. She rushed to us and we shared a group hug. “Baby” she hugged me and wept softly as we refrained. “Gerald plead guilty” I said coldly. “He already won but He stood up for me and….” I broke down in her arms. “Shhhh. I am here” my mom stroked my hair and it felt comfortable and peaceful. “I thought I wanted him to suffer, but now I can’t bear to see him being put away”. I cried loudly. “He still loves you, Mira” Rubby said dryly. I raised my head and looked at her. “Yes. I have seen how miserable he looked this few days and he still loves you”. She nodded at me. My eyes poured more tears down my face. “I… I don’t know what to do”. I confessed in tears. “Baby, has 46 hours left. Talk to him once. You will feel better”. She assured me. My mom was right

“Mira, you wanted him to suffer, so this is just revenge for you?” He asked. “Yes! You are right. It is revenge for everything he did to me. He abused me and….”. “Is there a report of this allegation?” Craig interrupted her again. Mira was speechless, she opened her mouth and there were no words, just tears. Gerald battled with my grip on him. His hands were shaking. “Did you make or file a report?” Craig asked again. “No but…Harry….” “Oh you mean his brother you were sleeping with also abused you?” Craig blocked her words before it even left her mouth. “Enough! Stop! Stop!” Gerald stood up and yelled. He walked towards the stand and pushed Craig. “Stop. Enough of this madness”. He yelled. “Mr Lead, return to your seat”. The judge commanded. “No, I will not”. Gerald responded. “He has gone mad,” I whispered. “Your honor, isn’t this obvious. My client is in love with the same woman who is bent on ruining h

My sitting room became a mini courtroom. It was the second time Harry was preparing me for the stand. “Harry, I got this” I sighed weakly. Harry looked at me and walked towards me like he was about to punch me. “No you don’t, till I feel you are ready, you are not ready”. I swallowed my pride. “The trial is in twelve hours and Naira has never lost a case and she is a blood hungry woman. She won’t rest till she breaks you on the stand! Got it?”. I nodded and took the stand again. Harry went over possible scenarios and prepared me for my response. “Harry, Naira doesn’t have witnesses”. Craig walked up to him. “Does that mean that she bluffed?” He asked. Craig pulled him aside and from the look on their faces, my guts knew something was wrong. “What?” I asked, getting off the mock stand. “Mira is the only witness she has”. Harry said weakly. I fell on the couch with a headache. “This means she will testify against him no matter what w

Harry’s POV. As soon as I heard their plot, I spoke up. I have been standing for the past two minutes and none of them could tell. They were all filled with range and revenge. “Harry” Craig walked forward but I pushed him out of my way. I went to Gerald and he looked away. “I told you not to do anything! What are you thinking?” I fired at him. “He just lost his company to a woman and you are here beating him for trying to stand for himself” Rubby hissed. “I knew you would be here. A snake trying to get an opportunity to strike! Aren’t you ashamed? Do you have a conscience?” I yelled at her. She looked away and sat down shamelessly. “This is your sister who you never cared about, at first glance you married her husband and now you are here to do what?” I lashed out at her. Craig looked lost and confused. “This is all a means for you to get Gerald, but I will not allow your selfish nature to tear my family apart!”. Rubby looked at me and bat

Gerald’s POV. Nothing prepared me for the moment I saw Mira in her office sipping coffee. I thought I was prepared but I wasn’t. She looked pale and I couldn’t help but notice her eye bags. “Boss”, Craig opened the door and I walked in. At first glance, my heart sank. I hated the feelings I was getting. The urge to walk forward and hug her. “You don’t have an appointment”, she fired at Craig. Craig laughed and took a seat in front of her. I stood by the door, unable to move an inch. I missed her. “My client and I have a settlement offer for you”. Craig presented a settlement document he suggested would cease the fire before it even started. He signaled me and I walked forward and sat next to him. She picked the document and looked at me. “Really?” She smiled coldly. Her smile frightened me. She slipped through the pages and her facial expression changed. “You can’t depose me as CEO ” she said aggressively.

Flashback. I stood under the drizzling rain with a coat as I waited patiently for Craig. He was my trump card to get through Gerald. “Hey”, I walked after him as he walked out of his apartment in gym clothes. “What?” He blasted at me without slowing down. “Can you be polite”, I almost lost my patience. He paused, turned around and raised a brow at me. “I am not your lawyer and I have no intention of becoming one. Even if I loose my job, you can’t afford me”. He was a proud asshole and I felt like walking out on him but I couldn’t. I needed him. “This is not about me. It is about your client, your money bank, without him you would still be an associate in a law clinic”. I fired back. He looked around and walked closer to me. “What do you want?” He lowered his voice and adjusted his tone. “You saw the news. Your client’s wife reappeared after two years and that means trouble”. Craig looked at me like he had no choice. “Follow me”.

Rubby’s POV. I came back from the gym to meet my parents standing in front of the tv like they have seen a ghost. “Mom?” I walked closer and caught a glimpse of the screen. “Abj’s new CEO reveals her true identity. Mira Greg”. I cleaned my eyes to make sure I was seeing properly. Like a wind, it struck me. “I have waited for this,sister”. “What in Free city is this manipulation”. I yelled. “Mom, she is Mira”. I almost lost balance. My mom was motionless. She looked lost as tears rolled down her face. Dad couldn’t lift his face. He walked back upstairs slowly. It all made sense at once. “It was all a plot. She never lost her memory. She sneaked her way in through pity”. I muttered in spite. “Gerald. She manipulated his feelings….. I must warn him”. “Rubby, he is aware” my mom’s voice stopped me halfway. “What?” I turned back and she nodded. “He was at the board meeting when she revealed her identity. She revealed he

Kaira’s POV. “I am Mira Greg, the daughter of the founder Abj venture. The wife of Gerald Lead. And it is a pleasure to be back home”. The board members stood up and clapped. It was the first time I ever I had the urge to breakdown in public. My heart was satisfied and my eyes shared tears of joy and fulfillment. Clara walked forward and hugged me. “You are a strong woman and I am proud of you “. She wiped the tear that escaped from her eyes. I hugged her back and it felt good. The clapping and cheering of the board members increased. It was my moment and I enjoyed every bit of it. “Mira, you are a great woman. Welcome” Mr Khoki tapped my shoulder. I got the the sympathy and respect of my board members and it was going to be a new dispensation. One at a time, the congratulated me and exited the board room. It was time to face my husband. We stood at the ends of the table in an empty board room. I had no words, my heart was rai
