Episode # 73:- (Hearts Entwined)
"Dessert?" Caleb asked.
"We'll get ice cream from the nearby parlor, it's within walking distance," Swara suggested, and everyone agreed. After paying the bill, they headed out, walking toward the ice cream parlor.
"Rose, wear your jacket," Sebastian exclaimed and made her wear the jacket.
"Park?" Swara exclaimed, pointing toward a nearby park.
"Sure," Sebastian replied, and the group made their way there while enjoying their ice creams.
Sebastian and Alex walked behind, while Caleb and Swara were ahead of them. Swara, grinning widely, climbed up onto a small sidewall and began walking along it.
"Now you can say you're taller than us," Caleb teased.
Swara stuck her tongue out at him as she finished her ice cream. Caleb held her hand lightly to keep her from losing balance.
Meanwhile, behind them, Alex spoke in a low tone to Sebastian. "Things are getting messier. I've got a feeling Zuri's planning something big."
Sebastian, keeping an eye on Swara to make sure she wouldn't get hurt, responded. "What about his wife? Leo mentioned she's coming to London."
"Our informers confirmed that she'll be arriving later. But where are you keeping Adam Steve? His brother's been handling his business in his absence, and no one knows his whereabouts," Alex said.
"In our hidden location. I haven't touched him yet, so for now, he's just rotting in prison. Once Rose gets her hands on him, though, he'll experience real hell," Sebastian replied darkly.
"Rosina and Aaron?" Alex asked.
"They're still free for now, but I've got eyes on them," Sebastian reassured.
"I haven't had time to check on Dad's hospital in New Zealand. Who knows what they've done to it?" Alex said with concern.
"Don't worry, the hospital is already transferred into your and Rose's names. I've kept it a secret from Rose because I want to surprise her by giving it back once she's fully trained. We'll be heading back to London next week. After that, I'll start her training, which should take a few months," Sebastian said.
Alex paused in surprise. "You've already taken it from Rosina and Aaron?"
Sebastian nodded. "Yeah, I've been planning this for a while."
"You know, Sebastian, you've got a heart of gold. But sometimes you act like a certified jerk," Alex remarked with a grin.
Sebastian chuckled at the comment.
"Rose, is your night walk over yet?" Sebastian asked with a hint of amusement as he watched Swara balancing herself on the side wall.
Swara turned toward him with a playful grin, her eyes twinkling with mischief. Sebastian, already knowing what she was up to, walked over and stood right in front of her.
Without missing a beat, Swara placed her hands on his shoulders, a daring smile playing on her lips. Sebastian chuckled softly, his eyes never leaving hers. "Alright, troublemaker," he muttered under his breath, knowing her antics too well.
In one smooth motion, Sebastian scooped her up by the waist, lifting her off the wall like she weighed nothing. Swara giggled as he made her jump playfully in his arms, her laughter ringing through the quiet night.
Caleb, ever ready for such moments, had already pulled out his phone. "Perfect," he mumbled to himself with a grin, snapping a picture of the sweet moment between them.
