Can You Mend My Broken Heart? Chapter 427
Advertisement
The courage with which Raymond had grabbed onto Dr. Nelson's phone to watch the video, slowly started falling down. His own brain went all numb, unable to believe what he just heard.
He didn't have any more courage left to watch it any further.
He paused the video and returned the phone back to Dr. Nelson.
"Raymond talk to me. Raymond, look at me just once. Please !!!"
Akira begged, but Raymond's blank eyes were unable to display any emotion. He started walking towards the door and then turned back and said,
"I need some time alone Akira and do not follow me now. Someone might get suspicious."
"Raymond please don't go, talk to me. Please. I told you not to watch it."
A desperate Akira, held his hand to stop him from leaving in such a disturbed state.
"I really need some time alone Akira. Please understand."
Saying that Raymond left the room and Akira slumped on the chair. She wanted to go behind him, but the Raymond that she knew, would not like to shed tears in front of her.
Dr. Nelson looked at her and her broken state and he wasn't able to understand if he did the right thing or not. He was scared for Akira's safety and given that he was aware of his capacities, he thought it was better for Raymond to know about the whole issue.
He looked at Akira all apologetically and said,
"I know you must be mad at me, but it's for the best. Trust me."
Akira lifted her tear laced eyes up and looked at him. The way she looked at him, with accusation filled in her eyes, was extremely painful for Dr. Nelson to bear.
And before he could say anything, tears started pouring from her eyes, like pearls of rain. So he knelt down in front of her and said,

"Let me tell you about something Akira, he is a strong man. He already knew that the reports were all faked by Dr. Oshana."
"What?"
"Yes, he somehow got to know about it. He knew that she had duped him. He was aware that it was all done by his father. He knew about it yesterday itself. But he decided not to tell anything to you because he was respecting your discretion Akira. He was respecting your decision of keeping the whole thing away from him. He would have happily kept it that way if today would not have happened."
"He knew it all yesterday itself?"
She was lost in the thoughts of yesterday. The way he was calm even after knowing it, the way he hid his pain underneath his smile. God knows what courage it would have taken to embrace it all. She couldn't even fathom in the wildest of her dreams of the pain that he was going through right now.
"He is way more strong than you give him the credit for Akira. He has every right to know about it not because the man who did all this was his father, but because the person who was at the receiving end of it was he himself. So don't you think he has the right to know about it."
"But I broke him."
Akira said and looked at him.
He wanted to hold her hand and tell her that everything was soon going to be ok. But he didn't have the courage to do it.
So he just looked at her in a comforting way and said,
"Hang in there Akira. Give him some time to process it. It's one thing to know that your father is an evil man, but it is whole another thing to know about the brutal realities."

"I understand it all, I get what you are saying, but are you realizing what I am doing? I am turning a son against his own father. I should be the one who should be patching things between them, but instead of that, I am destroying any chance of them getting together. You know right, how severed their ties are?"
Saying that Akira covered her face in guilt and embarrassment.
"I should have destroyed the video. I should have."
"Akira, get hold of yourself and think of what next can be done. Crying here will not solve any of your problems. Think about the next strategy. Think about how to use it in your favor Akira."
Akira looked at him and said,
"Will he be disappointed with me for doing all this."
Dr. Nelson let out a sigh and then said,
"You have got your man all wrong Akira. He was actually happy to see that you were so concerned about him. He was happy to know that you were the one who tried to figure out this whole fiasco."
"Really?"
"Just hang in tight for him to come back Akira. Because I know he will. You are his home Akira."

The Mischievous Mrs. Maxfield
***The wrong girl is sometimes The Right One.*** Charlotte Samuels thought she'd be stuck waiting tables at Marlow's until all her debts are paid off-in about ten thousand years or so. She definitely didn't expect a marriage proposal from the arrogant Brandon Maxfield who was blackmailed by his father to make her his wife if he didn't want his least favorite cousin to run Maxfield Industries. Charlotte's instinct was to say HELL NO! but she's stumped by a few obstacles: 1.) His old man Martin Maxfield is dear to her heart and has been recently deteriorating in health. 2.) She gets a million dollars if she stays married to Brandon for a year. 3.) She would rather like the opportunity to teach the attractive but awfully rude man a few lessons he didn't think he needed from a 'teenage gold-digger' which was his term of endearment for her on their first date-er, business meeting. So what's a girl got to do, right? Sure, she's young and a little rough around the edges but there's something her would-be husband didn't know about her yet-she's nothing like he ever expected. Thrust into the glitzy world a standard-issue Mrs. Maxfield would fit perfectly and rule with impeccable social grace, Charlotte will either have to force herself into the mold or break free of it, risking what little she has left for everything that she can gain.*** Copyright © 2014 by Nina Tippett.
