Her Bidder (Savior or Villain)(Book 1)✔

Episode# 31: King of Kings

Episode # 31:- (King of Kings)

Moving forward, I will add 1 year to all the years mentioned in previous episodes. This adjustment reflects the passage of time since Swara came into their lives, which has been approximately 8 to 10 months. For example, if a previous episode mentioned an event that occurred 25 years ago, I will now refer to it as having occurred 26 years ago. This change is intended to avoid any confusion.

Sebastian, who was laughing wholeheartedly, looked around with teary eyes from the excess laughter. His gaze turned towards his father, who had tears in his eyes and a beautiful smile on his lips.

He then looked at Swara, noticing the smile on her face. Shaking his head with a small chuckle, he opened his arms for her without a care for their surroundings. Seeing this, Swara immediately hopped into his arms, wrapping her arms around his neck.

Sebastian picked Swara up from the ground and twirled her around, making her giggle softly. He smiled again and, while kissing her head from the side, gently set her down. "Thank you," Swara heard Sebastian say. She looked up and found him already gazing at her with a soft smile.

"Thank you for making me laugh. I had forgotten what it felt like to laugh like this after so many years. It's an amazing feeling," Sebastian said. Swara said nothing in response, simply hugging him again.

"Wow, cousin, I never knew you'd look so good laughing like that. I always thought you'd look like a chimpanzee if you ever laughed like this," Vidhant's voice rang out, causing Sebastian, who was smiling, to make a face. Swara, on the other hand, fumed with anger and turned toward him with a glare.

"If you're a giant animal, like a hippo, it doesn't mean everyone else looks like you," Swara shot back, putting her hands on her waist. The room erupted in laughter at her retort, while Vidhant fumed in anger and stepped toward her.

"You tiny mouse!" Swara screamed playfully as she saw Vidhant coming toward her, and she quickly ran away like a bunny. Vidhant chased after her, determined to catch her. Sebastian shook his head, amused by their childish antics, and turned toward Harry, who was looking at him with pure fatherly love.

Without saying a word, Sebastian hugged his father, who hugged him back warmly. Sanjeev, Lavanya, and Alex stood nearby, smiling as they watched the heartfelt moment. The other guests discreetly dispersed, giving them some privacy.

"Okay, okay, I'm sorry," Swara said to Vidhant after stopping in front of the gigantic window in the hall, trying to catch her breath. Vidhant also took a deep breath, calming himself down as he looked at her.

"Only because of you, we get to see this side of Sebastian, Swara. Thank you so much," Vidhant said, to which Swara shook her head before hugging him.

"If doing silly things brings him back, then I'm ready to do them every day," Swara replied, her voice filled with determination. Vidhant gently patted her head with affection and said, "I'll help you too."

Just then, Lavanya called out to Vidhant from behind. He excused himself and left to join her. Swara took a deep breath and turned toward the window, watching as the sky gradually darkened with the setting sun.

She was gazing outside when she suddenly felt a pull, and in the next second, she found herself on the floor, someone's arms wrapped around her securely.

"Little sparrow!" Seb's voice called out from a short distance, and Swara, momentarily shocked, heard footsteps approaching. She looked at the person who had pulled her down and was surprised to see it was Alex, who was now looking elsewhere.

Following his gaze, Swara's eyes widened in fear as she noticed a bullet lodged in the sidewall of the window. "Bull...et?" she stammered, her voice trembling. At that exact moment, Seb rushed over to help her up from the floor.
