Its Too Late To Forgive

Henry, Jason and Martin were shocked to see Alen standing at the door. His eyes were swollen and deep red in colour. It seems as if he can burn everything or everyone who comes in his way today.

He held a dangerous aura around him which was very much unlike his sobar and solved personality. Henry saw another figure who was standing behind Alen and he could see that Sophia was trying her best to control Alen from doing something wrong.

None of three were able to understand the reason of his anger.

'This anger, ofcourse, can not be for not attending the wedding ceremony' , thought Henry.

'And this anger cannot be for the stunt he did in his marriage,' thought Jason.

Both the men were engrossed in breaking their brains to find out about the reason of Alen's anger. Martin who himself was oblivious regarding any matter involved, involuntarily left the pendrive on 'on mode' and very respectfully greeted Alen.

The projector was giving some connectivity issue hence he was not able to play the pendrive contents when he entered first. But before he could take some action, Alen busted in.

"Young master James, welcome back to the country and congratulations for your wedding."

Hearing Martin, all the three leading men came back from their respective trance. Henry and Jason also got up from their seat to greet Alen and Sophia.

Alen did not respond to two of them but surely did to Martin whereas Sophia held Alen's arms tightly to control him and respectfully greeted Henry and Jason both,

"Young master Jackson... Young master Morris.. Thank you for your wishes."

She bowed to them with all her respect. Henry noticed that since Alen has barged into the hall, his burning gaze has not even left Henry for a second also. Henry was confused as he really doesn't remember offending Alen or James industries in any form, then why this angry gaze? He thought.

But before he could reach upto some conclusion, Alen pulled his arm from Sophia's hold and marched towards Henry and punched him hard on his face. Henry was caught off guide and he fell on his chair, butt first. Jason and Martin could not resister what just happened and within seconds Jason's butt's and face also faced the same fortune. Alen was a strong German built man, his single punch was enough to cause stream of blood flow from Henry's and Jason's cracked lips.

Martin came closer to Alen and stopped him by becoming a human shield for his young masters. Henry stabilized himself and so did Jason before getting up from their respective chairs once again.

Henry cleaned the blood with his right thumb and stared angrily to Alen for a second. He then twisted his head, clinched his jaws so as to hold back his anger and asked Alen,

"Well.. That's a good treat for not attending your wedding."

Just then Jason spoke who was trying to bring his jaw back in position,

"But I did.. Then why did you hit me?"

Alen was least bothered by their words. He came forward, pushed Martin on a side and held Henry's collar tightly. They were almost of the same size and same built. Alen was dangerously looking into Henry's eyes. Now Henry understood that something was seriously wrong and Alen is here for some answers.

Jason tried to come forward and remove Alen's hold but both Henry and Alen showed him their hands in gesture to stop at his place.

"Stay where you are Jason, I will deal with you later."

Jason could not register this rude attitude of Alen and he barked out in anger.

"What the fuck do you think you are doing Alen?"

Even after hearing Jason's loud and angry voice also, Alen did not flinch. He punched Henry again but this time Henry had already anticipated Alen's action and he could dodge it but Alen still held his collar.

Alen grabbed the color with both his hands and shouted on Henry's face while bringing his own near him.

"WHERE IS MY BELLARINA?

What the fuck did you do with her that she became like that??

Tell me, where is my Elina... Henry.."

Alen almost screamed. And pushed Henry back.

"Fuck... Fuck.. Fuck..

I should have taken her away when I had a chance. I shouldn't have let her stay with a mother fucker monster like you...

Shit.. I messed up..."

Alen held his hair and pulled them while cursing himself. He took a seat and bent his head in defect. It was clear that he was crying.

Sophia, who was standing a little away from them, came close to Alen and held his shoulders softly.novelbin

" What have you done to my Elina Henry?

Where is she??

Please tell me where is she...

Please...I beg of you.... P.. Please. "

"Elina!!!!"

Hearing this both Jason and Henry spoke in unison.

"It's she the woman you have been looking for so many years?".. Asked Henry.

"It's Elina your childhood sweetheart?"

Asked Jason.

Alen simply nodded and turned his head to the opposite side and wiped his tears.

"How am I suppose to know about her wearabouts?

I don't even know who she is??"

Hearing Henry's question, Alen fisted his palms and stood from the chair while banging the table hard.

"You don't know who she is, you mother fucker?

Yes.... Yes...

ofcourse you didn't know. None of you knew her.

If you did na, then I dare you to even harm a single strand of hair of hers' and see what I can do to you."

"Relax Alen, tell us who she is? And how are we connected to her."

Jason tried to reason Alen. Alen clenched his Jaws tightly and fisted his palms. Henry, who was trained under military for 3 years, could easily sense that Alen is about to attack again. Before Alen could do anything, Henry signalled Martin and latter caught Alen from behind and held him tightly and made him sit on one of the chairs.

Sophia, rushed towards Alen and stood on her knees in front of him and held his fisted palms tightly in her hand. Alen cooled a bit with Sophia's touch but tears didn't stop flowing from his eyes.

"Why? Why??......"

Alen looked at Sophia and started crying more, questioning himself again and again. Sophia felt heart broken seeing Alen like this and quickly took him in her embrace. All the 3 men standing were equally disturbed by seeing Alen like this.

Henry couldn't stand this anymore. He wanted to know the reason for Alen's behaviour. He had always considered Alen as his younger brother and seeing him like this was almost heart breaking for him too.

"Sophia, what's going on?"

Henry knew that Alen is not in any condition to answer so he asked Sophia instead.

"Who is Elina?

What's her identity??

What has happened to her???

and how are we involved with her????"

Henry asked all the questions that was running in his and other's mind in one go. He wanted to know everything right now.

"Young master Jackson sir...."

Sophia looked at Alen then got up while taking a deep sign,

"Bella is Elina.. boss."

Henry, Martin and Jason looked at Sophia with their eyes wide open. It was one of the biggest shock Henry has ever faced.

"Bella is Elina.... How can that be possible! "

Henry spoke in soft voice but it was clear enough for others to hear.

"It's true boss....

Bella is Elina. Actually her real name is Bellarina and Alen's mother used to call her Elina and hence Alen also started calling her by the same name."

Henry was looking at her with confused expression.

"How can that be possible?

How can my Bella be Alen's Bellarina! Plus her name is Bel..."

Before Henry could finish his sentence, Alen marched upto him with his long strides and again grabbed his collar.

"Dare you take her name by your filthy mouth."

Alen gave him a dangerous stare.

"And she is not yours Henry. She is mine. She is mine. Do you hear me.

SHE ALWAYS BELONGED TO ME. SHE IS ONLY MINE."

Alen roared on Henry's face. Seeing that Alen has once again lost his temper, Sophia rushed over and held his right hand tightly. Alen who was breathing heavily, calmed a little bit.

" Alen relax.. And please someone tell me what's really going on here!

How can Bella be Elina or Bellarina? Her family belongs to country A, the Evans, and if she really is your Bellarina then why didn't she recognise you? Ya tell me.."

Jason interrupted and questioned Alen. Alen himself didn't know the answer for Jason's last question. He, himself, was confused that when Bella can write a letter for him then why can't she remembers him.

" I do.... Don't know... Why? Why my Elina was not able to recognize me??"

Alen spoke in his broken tone. Jason could not take this anymore and asked Sophia in a firm tone.

"Sophia please explain this whole natter. It is not making any sense."

Jason was continously looking at Henry who seems to be now roaming in his own world. Finally Sophia explained everything what she knew from Bella's mother's death to Alen and Bella's bonding and separation and about Bella's uncle and finally her broken pendant.

Hearing about the pendant, something clicked Henry and he rushed to Sophia and asked for it.

"Is it a broken doll's pendant? Let me see it please."

Jason and Martin looked at eachother in surprise that how does Henry knows about that thing. Sophia turned towards Alen and gestured her palm asking for the pendant. Without saying a single word, Alen placed the pendant in Sophia's hand which she handed over to Henry.

Ofcourse Henry could recognise it within seconds in it's very first glance. He has seen the similar pattern half broken doll's pendant as a bracelet in Bella's wrist since her childhood. Initially Bella used to wear it daily but then it reduced when she started socializing and hanging out with Henry and the group.

Henry remembered very well that he offen asked her what's so special about this bracelet? And Bella always replied with a smile that her grandpa told her that it's very special and is gifted by someone who loves her the most.

There were quite a lot of memories with this bracelet. Since childhood Henry often told her that it was not given by him but Bella always believed that he was lying and Infact it was his gift only.

At age of 14, Henry promised 10 years old Bella that once she becomes 18 years old, he will marry her and make her his wife and then shower her with lots of pendants like this. Poor Bella believed in everything Henry said and agreed to reduce wearing it. But Henry knew very well that whenever they were not together she always wore it.

It really bothered him to see someone else's gift in his Bella's hand and for the same he even went and spoke to her grandpa, to know who gifted her this thing. But her grandpa didn't answer him clearly and left the topic in between. After assuring for years that nobody claimed to be the gifter of the bracelet and Bella being his, he forgot about it and it just became a memory.

But today after so many years now he finally knows who gifted her this bracelet. And it would be a lie that he was furious with anger and jealousy. He wanted to beat Alen black and blue, but he knew he

can't do it. Not now at least because he still wants to know lots of stuff from Alen.

"This pendant alone doesn't prove that Miss Evans is Bellarina."

Martin approached Henry and saw the pendant in his hands.

"I have seen Miss. Evans since her childhood and her mother is Mrs. Evans - Mrs. Margaret Evans. And she is very much alive and hail and hearty. Her father.."

"Wait..."

Henry stopped Martin in between and turned towards Alen.

"That time what was her age.. You said?"

Alen looked at Henry with broken emotions and replied,

"She must have been around..."

"5 or 6! Am I right?"

Henry said while thinking aboit something. Alen nodded. Jason and Martin were looking at the duo in confusion.

'Wasn't Bella Henry's childhood sweetheart then how can she be with Alen? " thought Jason.
