Hidden Alliance

Chapter 17 *Apology *

Alvira was lying unconscious in Minahil's arms. Asher quickly rushed towards her and held her. He then patted her cheeks to see if she responded.

"Avi, open your eyes Avi. Can you hear me Avi? "

To his disappointment there was still no response. He quickly carried her in his arms without wasting a second and marched towards the medical room. The girls along with jibran, Sameer, Chaudary shahab and Fariha, also followed him. They were all worried for her now. Asher gently placed Alvira on the bed and asked the doctor to check her. He was scared to death now.

"I won't let anything happen to you Avi" He thought.

After checking Alvira the doctor injected her with something.

"She got unconscious due to stress maybe. I can't say anything until I perform her tests or find out about her medical history" The doctor spoke after injecting Alvira.

"Doctor I don't know about recently but she has the tendency to fall unconscious when she can't take any more stress. " Asher replied quickly.

"Alright then, I will give her stress busters and hopefully she will be fine after she wakes up. Please make sure she doesn't take any more stress. She can leave as soon as she wakes up. I have taken her blood sample and soon I will send the report."

The doctor left after prescribing some medicines. Asher then noticed that his right arm was sore and the pain was unbearable but he didn't care about it anymore. He was worried for Alvira only.

"I am taking her to upstairs, in her room. If we all stay here then people might gather around to see what's wrong." Asher then carried her once again and started walking towards the lift. The family also quietly followed him. After reaching the room, Minahil opened the door and Asher placed the sleeping Alvira on her bed.

Asher then walked till the window. He was desperately in need of fresh air after whatever happened. His injured hand was also giving him a tough time. He tried to bear the pain by taking deep breaths. Sameer saw him trying to sooth his arm and he registered that he might be in pain. Without saying a word Sameer went to Asher's room and came back with his pain killers. Maintaining the same aura he passed him the medicine with a glass of water. Asher took the help without any hesitance. He tried reading Sameer's eyes and all he saw there was hatred for him. Asher quickly drew his gaze away. It was unbearable for him to see hatred in his own brother's eyes.

Minahil, Zara and Amara were gathered around Alvira. It was strenuous for them to believe that their best friend was married and she hid this reality from them. They could now understand the emptiness she always carried in her eyes. Alvira left Karachi after her father's death. They didn't want her to leave but for her betterment they thought it was in her best interest that she leaves and stays with her "Bari Maa". They lost contact after she left Karachi. Two years passed and once again Alvira was back in town. She started a Fashion house under the name of "La Rosa". Luckily she had financial support and thus it took her few months to make a vibrant place in the fashion industry. Her friends were happy that she was back but when they asked her the reason she said that she wanted to make her own name and thus she took permission from the Maliks to go back to where she belonged. No one talked about the Maliks since then and that is why they were oblivious of the fact that the Maliks she lived with were actually Asher and Sameer's family.

After an hour of wait finally there was some movement in Alvira. She slowly opened her eyes. The family got Alert and rushed to support her. Minahil and Zara helped her adjust on the bed. After Alvira was seated, Amara passed her a glass of water, which she gulped down quickly. Asher was still standing near the window. His energy was strained after the confession and thus he was left with zero strength.
