Chapter 68 - Averys heart
The female officer stood Avery in front of that man and went back to their place. There were tears in Avery's eyes. She did not know what to say. Avery had come there with the help of those female officers but now she was standing there alone. Her legs were already completely numb and she had no support to stand on. Due to numbness, her legs could not bear her weight and she collapses. But before her body could fall on the floor, two strong hands pulled her towards a warm chest.
The person who saved her from falling was the one who had ordered to officers for brought her out of the room a while ago. His hands were on her waist and her face was hidden in his warm chest. Grabbing his coat, she began to cry loudly.
"Take me home, I want to go home. I don't want to stay here." Avery was crying in his chest and he was treating her like a little boy. He was trying to make her calm by using words, which was sweeter than sugar.
The man who had been cold as ice now he was melting like a candle in the presence of that girl which made everyone amazed.
Everyone was stunned because no one could even dare to speak in front of him and Avery was calling him by using his name directly.
"Alex take me home." Yes, the person who came for Avery was none other than her husband.
"Tell them that I didn't steal."
Avery was annoyed to see that he was not answering her question. In next second she parted herself from him and grabbed his collar in front of everyone.
"Alex I'm talking to you." Instead of answering her question, he cupped her face with his palm and asked. "How your cheeks turned red?" His eyes became dark and there was an anger in his calm voice.
Because of his sudden question, all the officers and other staff members trembled in fear. Sweat dripped down from their heads due to fear.
On the other hand, Nora had never seen a person like Alex before in her life. Ever since she came, she had been looking at him without blinking. Alex was the first person who didn't even look at her beauty. She liked his tough nature and she fell in love with him at first sight. But seeing Avery in his arms, she was pissed off. She felt like Avery had snatched everything from her. But she didn't know that Alex was Avery's husband.
With one hand on her waist and the other on her shoulder, Alex pulled her more closer. She was looking at Alex with her wet eyes. Whenever he was taking her closer, every time forgetting everything she was melting in his strong arms. This was the effect that made her unable to hate him and that effect was like magic for her.
She was trying to hide her face from him like a stubborn child. Grabbing her silky hair he held her face in place. His one hand was in her hair and other hand on her cheek. "Avery, I'm asking you one last time. How your cheeks turned red ...."
Just as Avery was about to answer his question, a voice came from inside her. 'Avery what are you doing? You are falling into his trap again. Don't forget he doesn't love you. Don't forget what he did to you. He called you bitch. He has raised a question on your character.' And with that, the pictures of Alex and Clara started moving in front of her eyes. Because of all that, the magic that Alex had cast on her came down and she started laughing like crazy.
"Why are you laughing like crazy? I think I asked you something."
"Why? Do you care about me?
"Absolutely" Alex answered without a moment's delay.
"Really." It was her first time treating Alex like that.
"Why do you have any doubt?" After these words came out of Alex's mouth, Avery did something that made everyone put their hands over their mouths.
"To hell with your doubt Alex Hillllll" Shouting this, she pushed Alex away with her whole power.
Avery's power was nothing in front of Alex, but his grip slipped from her body because he was unaware of what would happen next.
"Avery what are you doing, don't act like crazy. Come here." He stretched his hand towards her.
"I'm acting like crazy and what about you Alex." Alex's eyes widened toward Avery.
Avery, who always feared him, now she was out of his control. "Avery Don't create a scene here." Alex's voice was louder than before and his anger was evident in his eyes.
"I am not creating scene Alex, you have created the scene of my whole life." It was the first time in Officer John's life that someone behaving like this in his station.
If there were other persons at that place, the officer would have put them behind an iron bar.
But in front of him was Alexander. So he could do nothing but remain silent like the rest of the officers.
"Avery listens to me I have come here to take you...." Before Alex could say anything more, Avery stopped him in the middle. "Shut up Alex, just shut up." All the officers could not believe in their ears after hearing Avery's words. Because they had never seen anyone talk to Alexander in such a way.
"These people have brought me here from six o'clock on charges of theft, and you have come to take me now. Eight hours Alex eight hours. You came to take me after eight hours. You haven't thought about me once in these eight hours."
"I was in stuck in work Ave." He said in little low voice than before.
"I know the name of that work. Clara! Am I right. What could be more important to you than her? Your love of life." She again shouted.
"Don't say nonsense." This time he yelled at her very loudly because it was all going beyond his limit. He never thought that his wife would talk to him like that.
"You can't stop me today. Today I am going to tell here what you want to hide from everyone. Listen to everyone present here." She said in shaky voice.
"No No No Answer my question first." She approached the officers. "All of you know the relationship between us." First, she pointed her thin finger toward herself and then Alex.
No one there knew about their relationship but no one answered her question because Alex the devil was in front of them. They all were looking down at the floor with their heads down. But, Nora wanted to know about Alex and Avery. She was remarking every single word of Avery in her head.
"I know all of you are afraid of Alex. But all I know is that you know nothing about our relationship." She pauses for a moment to suppress her emotions. And begins to say back. "He is my husband." Her words dumbfound everyone. Because no one knows about Business Mafia's wedding. "I am Avery his wife. But he doesn't love me." These words raised a question mark in front of everyone. And on the other hand, hearing about their marriage, Nora's temperature was rising.
Avery couldn't stand it because there was no energy left in her body. She suddenly sat down. Alex stepped forward to get closer to her but Avery's words stopped him. "My husband doesn't love me because he has a mistress." These words were like lightning for everyone. " Can anyone believe that young business tycoon Alexander Hill has a mistress?"
Streams of tears began to flow from her beautiful eyes. She kept shouting that her husband did not love her and he has a girlfriend. "Let me tell you one more thing. He came into my life on my eighteenth birthday. The main thing is because of him my brother's life was saved. I fell in love with it in one day. And in just twenty-four hours we got married. Everything happened very quickly but I was awfully happy. But the next day I realized that my husband doesn't love me and he has a girlfriend. And that's I found out when I was going to show him my the wending chain. Because I had to surprise my husband. But my husband gave me the biggest surprise in the world."
Avery was sitting down crying. Her words had broken everyone's heart. Nora also felt a little bad about her but still, she had a place in her heart for Alex. Everyone was angry with Alex but no one could speak in front of his power. The look on Alex's face did not change when he saw this. Avery was crying like a crazy girl. After a while, she started having trouble breathing. Her throat was completely sore. She was crying and coughing.
Finally seeing Avery completely exhausted, Alex approaches her and takes her in his arms. He patted on her cheeks.
"Bring water." as the words of Alex brought life back to all .All the officers began to run.
