"Just what Akira?"
Dr . Nelson asked again, getting all impatient .
"Just that, I think you deserve someone better than her . "
Saying that she beeped to unlock her car door .
Dr . Nelson stood there all taken aback . He had no way to make her understand that he had no interest in Dr . Oshana but the weird circumstances around them weren't helping him much .
So taking a deep breath he said,
"I loved my wife from the bottom of my heart . And even now also I am truly, madly and deeply in love with her . I cannot give that place to anyone, not even . . . "
Saying that Dr . Nelson took a step back and started walking back towards his door .
Seeing him walking back like that Akira realized that probably she over assumed about things . So cursing herself she got inside the car but then again came outside, for she didn't want to carry the weight of massive guilt on herself .
"Jaby, wait !!!"
Dr . Nelson stopped and turned the moment he heard her voice . To think of, it was certainly weird that even though she had just now bombarded him with allegations, he was somehow not able to be mad at her .

"You still have seventeen minutes left for your birthday . Do you want to celebrate with me?"
Suddenly that out of the blue switch in the topic brought a smile on his face and he said,
"I thought you would never ask . "
"There was an ice-cream shop which was still open . It's just a couple of blocks away . We can . . . "
"It's really not needed Akira . I am just happy that you asked . I hope one day we can be just more than acquaintances . Maybe that day you will understand that I was always sincere . I always have been . "
"I am sorry for thinking that way . "
Akira said and hung her head for a while . Then after much deliberation, she extended his hands towards him and asked,
"Friends?"
He looked at her hand and then looked at her . For a moment he was unable to decide if he was going to make the right decision by giving her more access into his life .
"I don't make friends anymore . Ever since I was stabbed in the back by the one whom I trusted more than my myself . I am making an exception for you . Don't make me regret it . "
He extended his hand and then held her hand softly at first but then all firmly and said,
"Friends"
With a smile on her face, Akira said,
"Happy birthday Jaby . "
"I guess this is the best birthday gift that I have received, in the last couple of years . "
Saying that he released his hand and said,
"Now leave . My emotional threshold is damn low right now . I don't want to shed away tears now . "
He said and opened the car door for her .
But to his surprise instead of getting in, she hugged him again and said,
"I can't tell you how happy I am right now . Thank you for being the ray of hope for me and Raymond . "
He wanted to hug her tight, just for once but he kept the thought to himself and just smiled . Taking a deep breath she detached herself from him and then started the car .

After reaching her place, even though it was dead in the night, Akira called up David .
"Hello"
"Hello David"
"I got the proof against Oshana . "
"That's really amazing . I guess it's time to leverage that . Should I ask my guy to call her up now?"
"No use . She is out like a dead log . Wait until tomorrow . "Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
"Shouldn't we tell Raymond about it?"
"I think we should, but will it not worsen his relationship with his father?"
"It was all because of Sebastian?"
"Yes . Partially you can say . "
Even though David knew that it was all Sebastian's doing, he didn't want it to be true . He didn't want Sebastian to emerge as a villain in the end .
"Send me over that video . "
"I have placed the pen drive in your apartment letterbox . "
"You went all alone to get the video? It was too risky Akira . You know that people are following you these days . "
Akira paused for a while and then said,
"Well, that's something that I need to live with . "
"I know how much it hurts to lose a parent . I would do anything in the world to have them back . I don't want him to lose his father right now . If he knows about all this, I think there would not be any way in which it will ever be possible for Raymond to forgive him . "
"So what do you have in your mind?"
"Why can't we do what Sebastian did with Raymond?"
"I do not understand Akira . Be specific . "
"I want to strike a deal with the devil . "
