"What? I need to make it again?" Seeing the guy nodding his head Avery clenched her fists and blew into her hair. She kneaded the back of her neck and then gaped at the clock. 'It had been an hour already, is he doing this on purpose?'"Forget it, I will keep quiet and make another set one more time. If he orders me to make it again, he will see the worse of me. Humph!"Leaving all the other works behind, Avery focused on fighting against Apollo. He was not letting her work peacefully.There, Noah walked into the office, put the documents on the table and uttered, "Mr Wyatt, Miss Knight is making a new set of delicacies again.""Didn't she ask if I was in my office or something like that?"Noah responded. "No, she did not.""Good. I will see how long she can keep doing it. She will give in soon." He had a smirk on his face as he said so. The very devilish smile that does not usually appear on his lips.Noah scratched his head in confusion. He could not understand what exactly Apollo
"Are you apo... Apologizing to me?"Apollo nodded his head, brushing his fingers against hers as he let out, "I wanted to apologise to you but you didn't come to me. So I made you overwork purposefully." "It's ok. You don't have to apologise."Upon hearing her, he glared at her in astonishment. "You already forgave me?"His eyes seemed to be so filled with emotions, unlike other times when they seemed to be emotionless. He was staring at her as if he was hoping she would say yes.'I was angry at you yesterday night but I can understand why you did that. Why would I be angry at you then? And especially when you are saying sorry...'"Yes, so don't worry." She put on a happy expression.Apollo grinned and when she thought it was all over, unexpectedly he pulled her close.He embraced her in his arms, gently patting her back."Thank you." He said in a genuine voice.Without knowing the reason, she felt so happy. Avery stared at her fingers. 'Can I hug him too? Do I have the right?'Ave
"Apollo. Apollo." Seeing Avery gasping for breath, Apollo was about to say something when his eyes caught on the view. He was dazed and stared at her.Her hair was left open on the back but it was in a ponytail when she left, she added a little more lipstick and she seemed like she pulled her dress a little. When she came here, she didn't even bother to put on a little makeup."What happened to you?" He questioned.Avery took a seat and then drank a whole glass of water. She inhaled a deep breath and then asserted, "It's a long story. I have a favour to ask, can I?""Sure."She looked kinda excited, he couldn't help but wonder what have changed her mind all of a sudden.**"They will be here in a minute. Are you ready for it?" Apollo cutting the steak on his plate asked her in a calm tone.Avery put on her earrings and answered with a grin. "Yes, I am. Today, I will teach them a good lesson." She was so enthusiastic.Apollo was mesmerized by that smile of hers, he couldn't help but s
Liam was sitting opposite Apollo. They both stared at each other bitterly."You seem to have fun," Liam added.Apollo smiled coldly, and said, "You too."So many years passed, and Liam could still find that cold personality in him though he noticed around Avery, Apollo behaved somewhat differently."Of course, because I am not showing off. I am real." Liam sounded so proud of himself. There was no guilt showing on his face.Apollo could understand of course what he meant. Apollo drank a sip of his wine, staring at a far distance from where he was sitting he uttered, "Of course, fake ones like to boast. So you can easily know a braggart by just one look." Liam gritted his teeth and Apollo showed him cheers."You might be acting with Avery just to make me jealous, I know her very well. She will do stupid things to get me." Liam asserted so in a proud tone, sounding so certain as if he knew her.For some reason, Apollo got so angry the moment Liam said so. He hated to hear her name fro
The next morningStretching out her arms Avery didn't even stare at the mirror. She wiped off her face and headed downstairs just like that. She was wearing a baggy black t-shirt with her blue oversized pant. "Good morning, Eve.""Good... morning." Suddenly hearing the familiar voice and hearing the name 'eve' Avery turned around in a daze. There was nobody else except Jessy who called her by that name.As Avery turned her head towards the sofa, a wide smile spread across her lips. She ran to Jessy and hugged her, "Granny, I missed you so much.""Aww, dear. I missed you too." Jessy patted her back as she hugged her. "When did you come? It's so early morning." With a pout, Avery asked her so. Jessy smiled and answered her, "I came here this morning. Apollo sent the car to pick me up.""He?""Yes, he called me yesterday night and told me that you were missing me so much. He asked me if I have time to see you. How could I deny it? I missed you too na." Hearing her Avery widened her e
"Mr Wyatt, Mr Knight is here," Standing behind him, Noah reported to Apollo. They were in a meeting."Tell him to wait.""Ok, Mr Wyatt."Not long ago, he just said he would make them suffer and they were down to dead now.Sitting on the settee for an hour, Paul got so frustrated. If not because his company being at financial risk and needing Apollo's help, he would never have come here. "Excuse me. Is Mr Wyatt free yet?" Seeing the guy who informed him that Apollo was not free, he asked him. The guy didn't bother to answer him but ignored him.Angered, he clenched his fists. Now, even Liam couldn't help him. The only one who could help him was Apollo.**'This is so troublesome. I can not move it around, if anyone here sees this ring on my finger then they will certainly think that I am in a relationship. Then they will ask questions which I the most want to not happen.'Trying to turn her wedding ring around on her finger Avery bitterly failed. When she left home, she didn't know th
6 pmGrabbing her purse and phone she bid goodbye to her colleagues. Today she was more tired than any other day.Rubbing the back of her neck Avery looked at her phone screen. "It's 6.05 pm, I will call a cab."Thinking so as she was about to do it, all of a sudden she saw the familiar car stopping just right in front of her eyes.Avery looked away as she saw her husband staring at her from inside the car. She was standing on the street just in front of the office building. And not many people were around but still, she wanted to be careful, especially after what happened today.She didn't tell anyone anything about her rumoured rich boyfriend but she knew soon, she would have to say it."Get in the car."His stern voice came to be heard.Avery looked away and answered in a serious tone, "I will go in a cab.""Don't be stubborn."Upon hearing him she looked at him annoyed, they both didn't blink their eyelids as they were having eye contact as in having a war.Then not saying anythin
"Wow, so many delicacies." Avery was so happy as she saw the dining table was filled with so many dishes. Food was what made her happy the most.It was surprising though how he could be a good cook aside from being a businessman. Back in school she never knew he was good at cooking.Seeing her smile Apollo pushed her to sit on the chair as he uttered, "Yeah, now let's eat."While eating she kept changing her facial expression and he enjoyed seeing her smiling like that. "Uhmm, you are such a skilled chef. I don't see you usually in the kitchen though." She asserted, taking a bite on the muffin she was eating.Apollo handed her a tissue, she was eating a bit messily. "I used to cook for myself when I was in abroad. I learnt new recipes. Now, I don't get the time so you didn't see me.""Ahh, that's why." She smiled and focused on eating again. The dinner went peacefully, she enjoyed the food so much but more than that, spending time with him made her happy.After dinner, as he wanted t
