Her Mysterious Life – In love with her secret savior - Chapter 154

“Your girlfriend is my best friend from high school for whom I am still mourning and yet, you decided to hide it from me, Oliver?” Jennifer demanded.

Oliver froze when he heard Jennifer mentioning Kyra as his girlfriend.

“How did you find out that Ria is my girlfriend?” he asked as he sat down across from her.

“You mean Kyra Collins?” Jennifer asked, giving another surprise to Oliver. So, Jennifer found out that Ria is Kyra Collins.

“How? How do you know so much about her?” he questioned Jennifer again. He couldn’t help but worry that their relationship and her identity leaked.

“I overheard you both, stupid. Who forgets to close the door when romancing with their lover?” she mocked him in the midst of her sobs.

Oliver brushed his hair helplessly. He was in so much tension and he had so much in his mind that he forgot to check if the door was closed. Naturally, he orders the guard stationed outside not to allow others when Kyra is with him but this time, he forgot.

Seeing Oliver helpless. Jennifer could only shake her head.

“I wanted to introduce her to you but we decided to wait.” Oliver told Jennifer.

“I know. You are being cautious. I overheard that too.” Jennifer said.

“So, does she know?” Jennifer asked.

“She found out a few days ago at the LK group’s party. Kyra’s friend Sophia heard a conversation between you and Kyra’s step sister Melissa.”

“Sophia told Kyra about you the next day.” Oliver added.

Jennifer nodded her head.

She remembers the day she attended a party hosted by LK groups. It was after all the first time she met that bitch Melissa after many years.

“So, you were there with Al – sorry, Kyra that day, upstairs?” Jennifer asked.

“I was. You don’t know how much Kyra struggles whenever she encounters that family, Jenny. I had to distract her and divert her focus to cool her down.”

“Whenever I see her in that condition, I feel like I want to crush Robert’s family.” Oliver told his best friend.

Robert’s family is nothing compared to the power he can yield. He can make them disappear from this earth if he wants to, however, he knows that he can’t do it.

This is something his girlfriend had to take care of, all by herself in order to fight her trauma. He can only support her emotionally.

“I want to know what happened to Kyra and how she ended up in the Collins family. I want to know how her life has been in the past eight years.” Jennifer said as she pursed her lips with concern.

After listening to Oliver’s words, her heart started to hurt for her friend.

“I can’t tell you all these, Jenny. Although Kyra is my girlfriend this is something you have to ask her by yourself.” Oliver replied.

“But, will she be willing to meet me?” Jennifer asked as she casted her eyes down in guilt.

If only she would have insisted a little more, Kyra wouldn’t have suffered this much.

In addition to this guilt, they have ended their friendship on bad note and she doesn’t know how Kyra would react.

Moreover, Kyra didn’t make any contact even after finding out that she. Jennifer is Florence, her best buddy from high school.

“You both are truly the best friends. She asked the same when she found out about you.” Oliver said, chuckling.

“So, Kyra is willing to meet me?” Jennifer asked.

“Yes, she is more than willing! She is hesitating to come clean with you because she is guilty that she took your words lightly and sided with her good to nothing family.” Oliver said.

“Oliver, can you set up a meeting? I want to reconcile with her as soon as possible. God, I can’t believe that Alex is alive and she was in front of me all these days.” Jennifer said and started to sob.

Oliver chuckled and ruffled her hair affectionately.

“I am so happy.” Jennifer said as she wiped her tears.

“I am the happiest one.” Oliver said.

Jennifer raised her eyes and looked at him with a question mark face.

“Who wouldn’t be happy if his best friend and girlfriend are best friends?” he asked.

“I didn’t approve of her yet. I know her eight years back and she would have changed a lot in these years. I need to observe your relationship to approve of her.” Jennifer said but Oliver could see that she was joking.

“So, what do you think of her now? Leave the friendship you had with her eight years back and tell me what do you feel about her now?” Oliver asked.

“As a doctor, there is nothing I can criticize about her. She is passionate about her career and is very diligent and sincere. As for her personal life, I don’t know much about her and I don’t know how she is after she leaves the hospital.” Jennifer said.

Oliver nodded his head. He is sure Jennifer would love Kyra’s character and attitude.

“Enough of your questions and tell me how you both met and how the spark has started between you both. And, who proposed first and till which stage have you guys gone in terms of intimacy.” Jennifer fired the questions.

“I met her around four years back in London during the uncle’s grandchildren ( twins ) birthday. But we haven’t introduced ourselves and I didn’t even know how she looks and the same goes for her as well. But that interaction left a deep impression on me.” Oliver said.

“Later, we met in the hospital itself and she became the fellow under me. The spark between us has ignited the first time we met itself and thanks to the opportunities we got. We were able to meet each other outside the hospital as well, due to her connection to the president and the Collins family.”

“Even before we could realize, we were falling for each other and I was the one who took the initiative as Kyra is a little hesitant about forming a relationship with a new person. She eventually said yes and we started dating.”

“As of the state we are currently in, we have started to spend night together but didn’t go far than cuddling and making out.” Oliver said.

He didn’t hesitate to answer. Afterall, he was waiting to boast about his girlfriend.

“Routine love story… but it’s okay.” Jennifer said in a teasing manner.

“But, you, my friend, have a lot of rivals to look out for.” she added.

“I know. Matthew and Luther.” Oliver responded.

“Luther? Dr. Luther Smith?” Jennifer asked, incredulously.

“He was Kyra’s senior when she was attending med school in Oxford. They have been best friends for almost seven years but I am sure he has feelings for her.” Oliver said.

“Luther is such a handsome, successful and lovely guy. She must have had higher requirements for her boyfriend.” Jennifer said.

“It’s not about expectations and requirements, silly. It’s about feelings and trust. How many times should I lecture you about this.” Oliver chided her.

“Kyra trusts Luther. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be friends for this long. As for feelings, I don’t understand why she didn’t develop feelings for such a great guy.” Jennifer said.

Oliver rolled his eyes.

“It looks like you admire him a lot.” Oliver teased his friend.

“I admire him as a doctor.” Jennifer said but she blushed.

“You are blushing. Tell me the truth, do you have a crush on him?” Oliver asked.

Jennifer glared at him and as a response to his question, she threw a pillow at him.

“Text me the meeting venue and time. I will be there.” saying so, she stood up and left the room.

After she left, Oliver phone called Kyra.

Oliver didn’t tell Kyra about Jennifer and only asked her to meet at tea house near her house.

He just told her that he has someone important to introduce to her.

—–

Kyra went back to her house in Crescent Gardens and freshened up quickly before donning herself in a simple yet elegant jumpsuit. As Oliver said that he wanted her to meet an important person, she has put a little more effort than usual to doll herself up.

First impressions are a crucial moment after all.

She reached at 8 pm, the exact time they scheduled this meeting. However, when she entered the private room Oliver booked, there was no one inside.

Although she is confused, she walked inside and sat down before making a phone call to Oliver. But her anticipation increased when he didn’t pick her call.

“Is he busy?” she thought.

She was about to call him again but the door opened, making her turn her head to look at the person who entered the room.

“Jennifer?” Kyra called. Although she sounded normal, her heart started to beat so fastly. After all Jennifer is her best friend with whom she is about to reconcile.

“Yes, it’s me. The important person he mentioned is none other than me, Alex..” Jennifer said, stressing on the word ‘Alex’ which is Kyra’s nickname during her high school times.
