My Husband is My Professor and Boss

"No everything is fine. She is just in the daze and yes brought Avery's bag from the room."     

"Ok." She bowed little and excused herself.     

Alex picked up the spoon and started feeding her. Without saying anything she started to open her mouth for every bite.     

He fed her and himself with the same spoon. She had only eaten a few bites that she nodded her head negatively and refused to eat any more. Alex looked at her with narrowed eyes but she was looking at her lap and playing with fingers nervously.     

He placed the spoon on the plate then placed the index finger under her chin and tilted her chin upwards. Her face was upwards but her eyes were still downcast. He brought his face closer to hers and began to rub his thumb on her chin.     

"Look at me " but she shook her head and refused.     

She was in impact when she looked at him a few moments back but now she was normal and images of their intimacy were dancing in her eyes. It was hard and even though Alex had put ointment on her stomach, the mark on her stomach was started to hurt.     

"All this is because I kissed your belly." He asked in a sweet voice to which she nodded without looking at him.     

"Is that so. But Darling The two of us have been married for more than six months and in this whole period time, from starting I have not exceeded my limits except for that night. I gave you space even though our marriage was not in the right term and I also admit that sometimes I was aggressive but there was a reason behind that and now you know it all. But dear, I am a normal human being who has a desire. Who wants to make love with his wife."     

She defended herself even though her heart ached when she felt the sadness in his voice. "But it hurts." She lifted her eyes and looked at him. She didn't want to cry but her eyes were watery which she blinked to prevent them from flowing.     

"Oh, dear don't cry. I can understand and it will not happen again." He placed his lips on her forehead and kissed her.     

" Now eat my darling." She shook her head again.     

"I am full."     

"But you ate very little."     

"Please don't force me. Eating too much can make me nauseous. Please understand." She placed her head on his chest and closed her eyes.     

"Okay, but at least drink strawberry juice." Being a die hear fans of Strawberry, she drank a full glass in one go.     

After placing the lunchbox in Avery's bag, Mrs Kim took the bag to the living room.     

Alex also finished his breakfast. He looked down and put his hand on Avery's cheek. " Are you ready for a day Love or want to stay at home.     

"I am ready." She answered softly.     

"So you want to come."     

"yes." She answered and was about to get off his lap he grabbed her waist. "Don't." He said.     

He picked her up and walked through the living room. one of the young maid from the living room grabbed Avery bag and Followed him to maintaining a particular distance.     

After approaching the main door, Maid handed Avery's bag to a bodyguard and walked back.     

Alex hopped into the car and held Avery closed to his heart on his lap. As the chauffeur start the engine he pulled the partition which separated them from front seats and gave them the required privacy.     

Avery lifted her hand from her lap and brought it close to the button of Alex's shirt. With her little and thin fingers, she started playing with his buttons. It was like she wanted to say something to Alex or she wanted his approval for something. And that's what Alex understood because she had become accustomed to doing things like this for the past few days to convincing him for anything.     

For the past few days, she has been mastering how to butter Alex but even if she hadn't done anything still he would have ready for anything as long as she was safe.     

"Ave what you want?" He looked down and asked her directly.     

He knew there was no point in denying it because Avery would have persuaded him.     

Shutting down her playing mode, she lifted her head and looked at him. "Your permission." It happened just as he had hoped.     

Narrowing blue eyes he pulled his eyebrows together, "For what?"     

" Hmm." She bit her lower lip. She was hesitating. Probably she had guaranteed he could say 'no' to her because he wasn't ready to leave her for a single day and she needed full three or four days. She put both her hands on his shoulders and straightened her back, but still, she could not reach his level.     

"I got a call from my mom this morning. She told me that my cousin sister is getting married from my mother side and I have to go for that." Upon hearing this, Alex first asked, "For how many days."     

"Three days." She showed her fingers.     

Because her cousin sister was from her mother side, her mother's cousin sister's daughter. So she was Indian, which means the wedding ceremony can take more than one day.     

"No." He replied curtly.     

"You are not going to leave me for three days."     

"But it is necessary." She argued making an annoying face.     

"I will talk to Mrs Miller about this."     

"Alex," she took his face in her delicate and small hands. "Please try to understand. Mom didn't pressure me to go but this is my wish. They will not miss a single chance to mock her at the wedding. They will tease her and hurt her heart. I don't even want to but I'm just doing this for Mom."     

"But why? If you don't want to attend the wedding, why would they tease your mother? What does this mean? There is no point. It is up to you whether you want to go or not."     

"But that doesn't apply there." She replied.     

"But why. You are a student and this marriage is in the middle of the academic year."     

"Oh, Alex Please don't give me this excuse for not letting me go."     

"Ok, but they need to understand. Your mother is their family member."     

"But they don't consider her their family member. My aunt just wanted to make fun of my mother and only for that she invited my mother to the wedding and asked her to bring me and Liam along. But still, Mom wants to go."     

"But why." He was a little angry now.     

She took a deep breath and said, "Listen from the beginning.     

My mother went against all the family members and married my father. But Luckily my grandmother and my mother's cousin sister helped my mother who was the daughter of my grandmother's older sister. I didn't see her and in fact, my mother didn't see her after her marriage Primarily before I was born but my mother always told me that my eyes are exactly like hers and our thoughts also match. And because my grandmother and her sister were twin sisters, there was a lot of similarity between my mother and her cousins, except their eyes."     

"Hearing this, Alex tightened his grip on her waist."     

"And back to my mom's story. After my mother's marriage, everyone broke up with her except my grandmother, but luck was not on my mother's side as she died within a few months due to a serious illness. She wanted to see me but she was not allowed to come here from India. Mom used to say that Grandma always treated her like a friend. My grandmother had fulfilled all the duties of a father in my mother's marriage. After my grandmother died, my mother's family never contacted her.     

And one day, suddenly, on my birthday, a woman came into our home with her husband. Out of blue seeing her at our door my mother became happy and shocked too. That woman was my mother's cousin from my grandfather side means the daughter of my grandfather's brother, whose daughter is going to get married in six days.     

Mom's shock went away when Dad said that the man who came with her was a good friend of my father and neither of them knew about each other's wives.
