Chapter 162 - Mission Matchmaking.

"Are you serious?" Anthony asked Oliver as soon as they stepped out of the house. 

"About your sister? I am super serious." Oliver answered immediately. 

"Why do you like her?" Anthony asked. 

"Should there be a reason?" Oliver questioned back. 

Anthony let out a snicker. 

"I don't know cheesy answers, Oliver. What attracted you to my sister? What made you realise that it is more than a superficial attraction with her?" Anthony asked. 

"Is this some kind of interrogation, William?" Oliver asked. He calls Kyra's third brother William. They got to know each other while they were attending their respective businesses. 

So, Oliver knows William Anthony Collins as William itself. And, Oliver is relatively close to Kyra's third brother compared to the remaining four brother's of Kyra. 

"It's more than interrogation, Oliver. This is the concern of a brother. I am sure you know how a brother protects his sister." William said. 

Oliver smiled.

"I can't express what I felt for Kyra as attraction. When I saw her for the first time here, I felt oddly bonded to her."

"It can't be a coincidence but a destiny that your sister felt the same towards me. We both felt scared because of those intense yet strange emotions." 

"However, thanks to the time we got to spend with each other. We realised how special we feel towards each other and maybe because of those feelings, we opened up very fast to each other." 

"As time passed, our feelings for each other strengthened and before I even realised, I had already fallen for her."

"Maybe because of her past, Kyra took more time than me to realize and sort her feelings but she did come around."

"Then, we started dating each other." Oliver said. He didn't go into details because he felt like it's not necessary. William can understand. 

"You know about her past?" William Anthony asked, surprised and taken back. 

"Not in a detailed manner but yes, I know. Kyra told me after we started dating, " Oliver said. 

"You are indeed special to her then." William Anthony chuckled. 

"Sophia told me once that Kyra took a lot of time to open up to you guys." Oliver said. 

"No need to bloat." William said, rolling his eyes. 

Oliver laughed. 

"But you guys are very important to her." Oliver comforted his friend who seemed to be drinking tons and tons of vinegar. 

"Of course, we are!" William said. 

"You don't have to worry. I will take care of her properly. I will never hurt her. Even if I had to end up hurting myself I will gladly put her above myself." Oliver promised. 

"I know you are man of your words, Oliver. But doing these things are not as easy as said." William said. 

"I know. I have mentally prepared myself to face anything before I asked Kyra to date me. Right now, she is the most important person in my life." Oliver said. 

"I am happy to hear that. I know you are exaggerating a little but there is some truth in it." William said. 

"Exaggerating?" Oliver asked. He didn't exaggerate. Kyra is and will be an important person in his life. 

"You said that Kyra is the most important person in your life. What about your sister? Isn't she the most important one in your life?" 

"After all, your profession as a doctor and your lifetime research is to help your sister to recover her mobility back." William said. 

"I am not asking you to put my sister first. All I ask is, treat her and love her selflessly just like how you love Nora. If you can do that, I will not have any worries about my sister." he added. 

William has seen how much Oliver devotes himself to be a better brother for Nora. His life for his sister is selfless and so pure. 

If Oliver would be able to love Kyra in the same way, what else can he, as a brother of Kyra, ask for? 

Oliver smiled. 

"My sister is still my first priority. But I am willing to treat Kyra as my first priority too. My sister and Kyra are equally important to me." Oliver sincerely said. 

"For now, I will take your words and trust you with my sister. But that doesn't mean I trust you completely. I will be keeping my eyes on you Oliver. If you even dare to think of hurting my sister I will come after you." William said. 

"I am sure that day won't come, William." Oliver said. 

"I hope so. However, first of all, you must introduce my sister formally to your sister. You won't be able to keep your word if they don't get along." 

"As a brother myself I know that this is a sensitive topic. So, I am willing to give you some time to work on this. But, try your best to do it as soon as possible. Otherwise, it will become complex day by day." William said. 

"I am already working on that. You don't have to worry. I can handle this " Oliver said. 

"Now, it's my turn to ask you. What is your relationship with Jennifer? She is like a sister to me so, I have a responsibility as a brother towards her " Oliver said. 

William smiled. 

"I am a friend who owes her something. I came back to return that favor " William said. 

-------

Meanwhile, Jennifer and Kyra who are sitting in the living room continued to look at the two figures who are standing in the garden, still in a serious conversation. 

"Just a friend? Are you being truthful?" Kyra asked once again. 

While Oliver and William are having a conversation, Jennifer has already narrated her story. 

She hid many things but she has covered the outline of her story. 

"Yes, Ky. He is helping me to convince Nora that's it. He will leave next week and after that we will be as good as strangers." Jennifer said. 

"Do you think that your relationship with Anthony would leave a misunderstanding between you and Nora? I should have seen this coming." Jennifer said, scolding herself. 

Kyra looked at her friend and patted her back. 

"How could you have seen this coming, Jenny? You met my brother in Australia. He was using a different name and it would have been impossible for you to find out that he is from the Collins family. "

"How could you have linked me to my brother without knowing all this? So, you did nothing to blame yourself." 

"As if your dear Nora is misunderstanding you, I have a great solution." Kyra said. 

That immediately attracted Jennifer's attention. 

"What is it? Hurry! Tell me!" Jennifer said, shaking Kyra's arms. 

"Date my brother in real." Kyra said, smiling. 

After listening to Kyra's words, Jennifer's excitement dissipated. 

"What? Is my brother not handsome? Is he not a good person?" Kyra asked. 

Jennifer looked at Kyra and sighed. 

"Both my best friends want me to date their brother. Fate is really playing games with me." Jennifer said. 

"You are a beautiful, kind, good hearted person. Every sister would be more than happy to have you as her sister in law." Kyra said, hugging Jennifer's shoulders. 

Jennifer smiled and hugged Kyra back. 

"So, tell me. Are you agreeing to date my brother?" Kyra asked. 

"You!" Jennifer shouted and started to chase Kyra. Their laughter filled the living room and when William and Oliver came back, they were shocked to see the messy room and the adults fighting like kids. 

"What's happening?" William asked and as soon as Jennifer heard his voice she stopped herself from throwing a pillow at Kyra. 

"Nothing." Jennifer said. 

When she looked at Anthony her cheeks started to become red. Dating him for real? 

It ..it doesn't sound that bad.

"Ky… I… need to use the powder room." Jennifer said and quickly escaped. If Oliver and Kyra see her face, they won't stop teasing her. 

"I will go and freshen up, then." William Anthony told his sister and walked towards the room he is sharing with his twin brother, Walter. 

At last, left alone, Oliver and Kyra smiled and hugged each other. 

"Did my brother say something offensive?" Kyra asked as they sat down on the sofa while they cuddled each other. 

"No. As a brother myself, I understand his concerns." Oliver answered. 

"So, is he okay with us dating?" Kyra asked. Although her brother gave his approval to her, she wanted to make sure he was not lying to her. 

"He is. But he told me that he will keep an eye on me." Oliver said. 

"But he is worried about you and my sister. He is worried that you both might not get along with each other." Oliver said. 

"Jennifer is scared of the same thing too." Kyra responded. 

"Speaking of Jennifer, I am not convinced that she has no feelings for my brother." Kyra added. 

"I am thinking the same, Ky. Your brother seems to have something special with Jennifer." Oliver said and when they looked at each other, a knowing smile made its way to their lips.
