Chapitre 118: CH-118: Truth came out: part nine

Avery's head was on Alex's chest and his arms were wrapped securely around her waist.  Her eyes were closed and she could hear his heart beating.  Which was providing her with a relaxation?

"Ave." She heard Alex's Husky voice and opened her eyes while looking upward. 

"Yesterday I slapped you very hard."  He put one hand on her cheek and started caressing.

"Why are you saying this now?"

" Because I am feeling guilty."

" You shouldn't have done that in the first place."

"  I know my wife."

"Then  Why did you do that?"

"I didn't want to hurt you because I already hurt you so much. But at that time you said something that caused my hand to be raised automatically. I can't imagine my life without you.  Don't say what you said yesterday."
