The couples stood in a row expecting to play an entertaining game. Alex stood with Clara while Sandy and Rose were standing opposite to them. "I will tell you something. If you did that with your wife, you can kiss her. If you didn't do that, your wife would slap you" the moment they told the rules, everyone laughed excitedly to do this except for Rose, Alex, and Clara. Kiss or slap, Sandy doesn't mind at all. "You fought with your wife!" Tia exclaimed as all gave a loud clap that there is no way anyone would now slap. The room will be filled with kisses now. Sandy grabbed Rose and bent to her face who was now regretting even planning this party. "Thanks for this party" Sandy smirked at her as he kissed her cheeks. She closed her eyes in reflux as if it burnt her entire body. "Who will find it if we lie? I shall slap you" Clara spoke, breaking Alex's eyes from Sandy and Rose. He should do something to break Sandy's bones one by one. But right now he won't interfere as he promises

Clara was shocked as she sat there with a thud. She looked at Alex and Sandy who were busy fighting with each other and she didn't find it necessary to stop them as she was too startled to even move from her place. "You slept with Sana on my marriage day" Alex's words rang again inside her head. How would he have felt that day? Losing his best friend and at the same time his love is not something she could ever imagine going through. Clara felt her tears rolling down continuously seeing Alex. How can someone be so strong to bear such a thing? Clara felt low in front of him. She on the other hand though pretends to be strong, always falls apart if Elena tries another trick.She is not fully aware of what Sandy meant to Alex. But she knew that he was more than a friend. He was his everything. "What are you doing here?" Jason asked as he came running to her side, seeing her broken state. Thank God he didn't leave the place as he thought he should stay back if something sort of happened

"Why should I do this?" Alex is whining every time they order him to arrange the decorations. "There are people out there to help for such work" Alex is now stubborn."It's your wife's birthday. And it would be special if you do this" Rose glared at her brother as she gave him the tablecloth and some balloons too. Alex was as grumpy as anyone could imagine."I highly doubt she would even like this." Alex mumbled as he somehow could guess that Clara is not like those types of girls who would be happy with expensive things. If they just buy a cake with a candle, she would be happy."Did you buy her anything?" Rose asked, raising her eyebrows. From his expression itself, she knew that he didn't buy anything. Rose glared at her brother with a scoff and the best husband award goes to Mr Alexander."I love you" Before Alex could answer, Sandy came there with flowers and wished Rose with a kiss on the cheeks , making the sibling burn in anger."My Employee is online in WhatsApp. As per your

"Are we going to see her being pampered by all at this party? Or do we have some plans?" Elsa asked her grandmother on the verge of crying. She couldn't take it when Clara was enjoying what was supposed to be hers. "Let her smile and be happy till the end. Just a few more minutes" Elena is very sure of her plan. "Someone is here for you" Robbin, the head servant informed Elena as her lips curved up to a fine smile to have the guest there already. ****** "Thanks. I have never thought of this" Clara mumbled wholeheartedly. "You're welcome. It's August 31" Alex said as Clara looked at him confused."You owe me now. Won't you pay me back on my birthday?" Alex asked, gasping like a kid, making her laugh at him. "Guess I am now promoted from a stranger. Maybe more than a stranger and less than a friend, right?" Alex asked with a smile. He doesn't know why he wants to be acknowledged as her friend."Maybe more than just a friend" Clara replied and looked away instantly as she is too em

The hell silence followed as Clara replied to Alex's question. Sharon and Elena we're as confused as hell. Alex loosened his tie as he gave a long sigh."No one will talk now." Alex spoke after analysing something."What did you say?" Alex asked Noah as he neared him with long strides. For sometime, Noah was badly intimidated by the aura he had. "I love Clara" Noah stuttered and said it again loud and clear for everyone to hear them. Alex rolled his sleeves up as he finally reached Noah's side."What did you say for Clara?" Alex asked again."She loves me." Before Noah could finish his sentence, Alex slapped him hard over his face as everyone gasped loudly. Noah didn't expect this at all. He fell over the floor flat and he couldn't even lift his face to see anyone."Okay, after that, what did you say?" Alex asked, sitting beside him gritting his teeth harder to stop his anger emitting from his breath."S.h.e '' Noah is not sure now what he said after that. He stuttered as he looked a
