My Husband is My Professor and Boss

Avery ran out of there and out of that department.  She went into the hospital garden and stood near a tree.  She put her head on the tree and began to cry silently.  Someone put a hand on her shoulder at that moment.  She knew whose hand it was.  She didn't even bother to look at that person.  But she asked him questions.  "How much more things are you hiding from me?"      

"Ave i..."     

"Alex please.  Alex please answer me.  How did you know that Noah? Her name has already been changed.  Then why she needs to be protected.  Is she in danger from someone? What is the relation between you, brother Max and that do call Noah? Who told his name as Nicolas."     

"Brother Noah." Alex correct her.     

"What?" But she was confused.     

"You should call him brother Noah instead of Noah. He is elder than."     

"Alex Don't try to change the topic.  I want answers to my questions.  Emily's parents and my father died on the same day.  Her parents were murdered.  Did my father not die by accident but by murder?  Please tell me." Alex widened his eyes and there some kind of fear flashed in his eye.  He put both his hands on her shoulders and turned her around.  But Avery immediately jerked his hand and turned her back to him again.      

"Ave, why are you doing this.  I have been watching that you are trying to ignore me.  You don't even look at me." Ignorance of the person he loved the most made him feel bad.     

She also needed him the most at that time but she put her hand on her heart and told him that. "Because I'm crying, Alex. And you are angry with my crying."     

She did not want to hurt him.  But what about him, he also hurt her.     

"Ave. You are thinking wrong about me." He again turned her to him and held her close to his chest.  "My Love.  You can cry. Please don't suppress your emotions. I know I was very wrong with you.  I shouldn't have said to you that." He said her very lovingly.  But Avery was still trying her best to free herself from his arms. "Alex leave me."     

"Shuu....  My Love.  I'm sorry.  I know I shouldn't have reacted like that.  But I was scared.  I was afraid that you might get into trouble. Don't push me because of such small things." There was honesty in his words that Avery could feel.  And that made her stays in his arms.     

But still, she was afraid of him.  And for him, she closed the door of her heart a little which she opened fully for him after knowing the truth.  It was her turmoil that kept her emotions unstable and even small things affected her.     

"You scared me, Alex." She murmured in his arms near his warm chest.     

"I know and it won't happen again." He sighed and tightened his grip on her.  'Ave, I know I scared you. But you don't know how much I was scared after seeing that message.'  He thought.     

He started rubbing his hand on her back and tears began to flow from her eyes. The pain she felt in her chest when she was trying to suppress her feelings in the hospital now seemed to subside after she cried.     

Even though she was in Alex's arms now, she had not forgotten Alex's brutal words and the questions in her mind...     

"Alex You still haven't answered my question."  She asked.     

Alex bent his head down and brought his warm lips close to her ears.  "There is nothing like that.  You are thinking too much." And he kissed her ear.     

'Alex I know you are hiding the main reason behind all this from me.  All these things cannot be coincidental.  I have such a strong feeling that all these things have a connection with each other.  I have to find it.' She thought.     

"Ave." Alex let go of her waist and grabbed her shoulders, pulling her little away from himself.  "Let's go home."      

"But Emily." She asked and he showed his mobile in front of her eyes.  "Look!  Max's message is that her operation was successful and she is out of danger.  Let's go home now love.  You are also tired.  You need some rest." Alex put his hand on her waist.  Just as he was about to take her, she turned around and put her hand on his chest.  "Alex." She looked up and met his gaze.     

"What?"  He muttered and put his hand on her cheek.  She closed her eyes in a moment to feel his warm as she felt his touch on her cheek.  Alex was very pleased to see her calm face with her closed eyes.  He started caressing her cheek and plant a sweet kiss on her forehead after brought his lips near to her face.      

"I want to see her."     

"Not today."     

"But why Alex."     

"Because she is still unconscious.  We'll see her tomorrow."     

" But....." Alex put his Index finger on her lips.      

"Don't be stubborn child little wifey." And with that, they left the hospital.      

....     

Meanwhile     

Emily was shifted to the VIP ward after the operation.  Noah was sitting on a chair beside her bed.  He wanted to hold her hand but he was afraid it would hurt her hand.  Seeing her pale face his hurt a lot.  He placed his palm on her cheek.  "I'm sorry I couldn't protect you." And with that, tears fell from his eyes.      

Max was shocked to see the tears in his eyes.  'This cold-hearted person can also cry.'  Max thought.     

Noah was a cold-hearted person but very patience full man.  Who would take decision with great courage and patience in any situation?  But his patience runs out when things come to Emily and Avery.  He could not see them both in any trouble.     

Raina was standing next to Max.  She was still angry that Noah had refused to recognize Emily that day.  She wanted to crush him.  But she knew that the place was not right for her to express her anger.  She tugged Max's sleeve.  "What happened princess?"  He looked at her.      

"I think we should leave them alone."     

" Hmm."  Max nodded.
