"You'll hear from my lawyer." Alex snapped
Alex said that he chased after his wife, who had left his side.
Avery held her dress as she climbed the stairs to their room.
" That bitch. Talking trash in my face. I should have done more than slap her." She said under her breath. She slammed the door in Alex's face.
She made her way to the bed and flopped on it, and her arms folded against her chest.
"Avery -"
Alex paused midway when Avery looked at him with cold eyes.
"Since your wife is here, you stopped using nicknames?" She scoffed.
"No!, I mean. Babe. How can I be stupid not to call you that?" Alex said as he moved closer to his wife. He knelt in front of her and held her hands which were resting on her knees.
"I made it clear to Tonita that she will be hearing from my lawyer baby," Alex explained.
"Hmm." Avery looked at him. She rolled her eyes at him. " I'm still not forgiving you, yet. But you can earn your forgiveness."
His eyes lit. A sigh of relief left her mouth. He didn't know what he would have done if she refused to forgive him.
"I will do anything, baby. Anything."
"Careful of what you say, Alexander. At this moment I just need a massage."
"Really?" Alex said with a smirk.
She knew that look. Her face flushed from redness. What was going on in his head?
Alex rose to his feet. His hands are clasped together.
" Lie down mon chéri. And lemme start my work."
Avery nodded at him and lay on her tummy. Alex helped her unbutton her dress. Her skin looked soft and delicate. He traced his finger on her spine. A moan left her lips. Alex threw his head back, his eyes half closed.
"Babe. Unless you wanna get into something please don't moan like that." Alex insisted.
His cock twitched against his zipper.
"Like what?" Avery asked in a hoarse voice.
A dark chuckle sounded in the room. Her traced finger on her back again and Avery couldn't help but moan.
"Like that."
Without thinking she turned to face him, forgetting about her bottom. Her dress dropped exposing her breasts.
Avery's breath got caught in her throat. He wet his lips with his tongue.
Her eyes widened. Her hands flew and covered her breasts.
"I'm sorry." Avery apologised
Alex shook his head at her.
"You don't need to apologise, baby. After all, I've seen and touched every part of you."
"ALEX!"
He chuckled and shrugged his shoulders.
"What? That's the truth. Tell me you didn't enjoy it."
Avery intended to roll her eyes at her but her gaze landed on his zipper. Her gaze made his cock twitch, making him uncomfortable.
He groaned at her. Alex landed his forehead on hers.
"Please don't look at it like that."
"Like what? Do you need help?"
Alex was tempted to agree to her, but he rejected the offer.
"But you're in pain."
"We can't. The event is still ongoing."
Avery scoffed at him and pulled herself away.
"Hannah is taking care of everything. I can help you. You know. And I have greeted those I had to. Lemme help you. Please"
With conflicting emotions, Alex agreed to her. He didn't want to, but he couldn't excuse his wife's feelings.
