Avery had now fully opened the doors of her heart for Alex and now she was craving for him just like he for her. She was sitting at the dining table having her breakfast but she was missing Alex's company. She didn't want to have breakfast alone but she had no other option. She was thinking about Alex when she heard the main door open and she hurried into the living room. Her guess was correct because it was her husband. She hurried to him.

But before she could get close to him, her eyes fell on his face, which was very furious. His dark expression stopped her feet on the track. His hair was messy and he was wearing a simple black shirt with his sleeves folded up to his elbows paired with blue jeans. His presence was dominant and authoritative. In his hand, she saw a roll of a bunch of papers that he had clenched in his fist causing the veins on his hand to poke out.

She was thinking about whether to go near him or not, he looked at her and held one of his hands out. " Love. Come near me."

Not only he was angry but his eyes were also in pain. Avery silently walked over to him and stood in front of him. He raised his hand. And cupped one of her cheeks. He started rubbing the rough pad of his thumb on the side of her lips.

"Did you have breakfast?" His expression changed 180 degrees like he was not angry at all a few moments ago.

"I had my breakfast but I didn't eat much because you weren't with me." She genuinely shared her feeling. "Where did you go You told me nothing but didn't leave a message. I also called you but your mobile was out of reach. When you came in, you were angry. Is everything ok or not."

"Everything is all right little one. You don't have to worry." He wrapped both his arms around her waist and pressed his face into her crook. He began to inhale the jasmine scent of her body.

After holding her small frame in his arm for a full two minutes, he released her and placed his forehead on her forehead.

" Wait for me in the dining room. I will return in twenty minutes. Let's have breakfast together and then go to university."

"Okay. " She said in a timid voice. She had eaten very little and she didn't even have to face Morning Sickness this morning so she wanted to eat with Alex again.

She went into the dining room and sat on the chair on the right side of the head chair. She decided to serve the plate until Alex arrived. She first served one plate and then another, but she stopped. Because whenever they have to breakfast together, Alex always allowed the maid to serve only one dish. She was in her thoughts when Alex approached her like a thief and kissed her temple. Without giving her even a moment's notice, Alen pulled her chair back and immediately lifted her into his arms. He took her in his arms and sat on the head chair and put her on his lap too.

"Alex...."

" Hmm...." He responded while pouring orange juice into the glass.

"I have to leave in the morning after one day."

" But where and for what." his face frowned, he forgot about her cousin's wedding.

" For cousin's wedding." Hearing this, he tightened his grip on the glass filled with juice and closed his eyes to calm himself. He did not want her to go to her cousin's wedding. But he knew he had no choice. He opened his eyes and looked at her.

"Okay. I will take you and your mother there."

"Alex It doesn't need. You don't have to bother yourself."

"How can I allow my little wife to travel in this condition without me? And this is my duty."

" Okay." Avery was now annoyed by Alex's over-protective nature.

He had imposed a lot of restrictions on her after the pregnancy which made her very bored now.

After breakfast, they both left the mansion.

Avery was on the campus of the university and was going to her class. The picture of the university had changed since the shooting of the movie started at the university. Although the student was barred from going to the shooting area. Still, some students would bunk their classes and go to see the shooting hidden from everyone's view.

Auditions were also held to hire some new artists in which many students were selected. Violet and a boy were selected from Avery's class. The students were hired for very small roles but still, they were all happy. Out of all the students, two students were selected for the important roles and one of them was Violet.

Also, some rumours had reached Avery's ears. The same roll for which Zid Brothers had offered her has been given to Violet. The students were not allowed to enter the shooting area but the screw member was moving around the university.

Unaware that someone was observing her from afar, Avery went to her class. When she set foot in class, she noticed that Emily was already in class.

She quickly approached Emily and sat down in her place.

"How is brother Noah?" She asked this question first.

"Much better than before. His wounds are healing now.

"Oh, that's very good. But you look very tired. Your face looks very dull and the dark circles under your eyes also look darker than before. Looking at you, I can say that you have forgotten about yourself while taking care of him."

"Yes, you are right, but seeing him in that state really hurts my heart. I can't even imagine what would have happened today if Alex sir hadn't pulled him out of that situation." There were tears in her eyes.

" I can understand." Avery put her hand on his shoulder. "But still, you have to take care of yourself."

" I will...." And there came their dashing professor who gained everyone's attention and immediately started teaching.

Lucas joined the class immediately after Alex's class ended. He had a test report in his hand today. Today he was going to declare everyone Marks. And soon he began to tell everyone about Marks.

Avery and Emily's faces were pale as he told everyone's Marks.

And finally, it was Avery's turn. She had very low marks on the test and was followed by Emily. She had lower marks than Avery. Avery's test result shocked the whole class. Because she was a star student. Lucas did not expect this from her. He asked Avery and Emily to come to his office before leaving the class.

During the lunch break, Elly and Avery both went to Lucas' office. He was already waiting for them.

Lucas asked the two of them to sit down and started asking questions. From his dealings, it is clear that he is a Disappoint and especially from Avery. He thought that there was a problem in Avery's life that made her neglect her studies. But there was no such thing that made him furious from inside. They both made it clear to him that they had both forgot about the test because of that they got such low marks. And they both left saying that we will get good marks in the final exam but before leaving, Lucas had reminded them that they are both scholarship students. So they need to maintain their credit score and especially Avery. Because Emily was a sportsperson.

Lucas also came out of his office after the two of them left away.

He turned to go somewhere but, " Lucas." Hearing that someone called his name, his feet stopped automatically. He turned in his place and saw the person standing in front of him and a smile formed on his lips.

"Yolanda." He said cheerfully and walked over to her. She also crossed half the distance and reached Lucas. The two gave each other a tight hug.

"I didn't expect you here today. " He said breaking the embrace.

" I also did not expect you here too. I think everything is fine between you and Alex now."

"No, it's not. I can never forgive him for what he did."

"Please. Lucas. It's been a long time. And I don't think there's was Alex fault in that matter." Hearing this, Lucas's eyes darkened. " Don't forget Yolanda that Alex caused her death."

"Okay. I can understand your feeling for her. But why are you here?"

"I have another purpose for coming here."

"Care to tell me."

" Not Right now."

"Okay. Never mind." The two talked to each other for a while and then Yolanda left to meet Alex.

She was missing her old friend very much. She knew that this university belonged to Alex, but she did not expect Lucas here. And the bad thing was that Lucas hadn't come out of the past yet.
