Chapter 356 - No More Misunderstanding!

Alexi looked at Martin and he raised his eyebrows at her.

"I am sorry." Alexi said making Martin frown.

"Sorry for?" Martin asked making Alexi take a deep breath.

"I am sorry for talking rudely and... Nonsense." Alexi answered and Martin walked close towards her. He looked into her eyes as kept his hand under her chin. 

"Alexi, you didn't talk rudely with me." Martin said.

"But... I am talked nonsense with you... Didn't I?" Alexi asked and Martin nodded his head.

"Well... You kinda did..." Martin answered. 

"I am sorry for that..." Alexi said making Martin chuckle. Alexi frowned at him making a face. He cupped her face with a smile and kissed her forehead.

"It's fine... Don't worry about it." Martin replied as Alexi hugged him. He smiled and hugged her back.

"I shouldn't have gone out with Nick in the first place... If I haven't gone out then all these wouldn't have happened..." Alexi said and Martin looked at her taking her face in his hands.

"No... I am not stopping you from going out with any of your colleagues, Alexi... Go out with whoever you want... But... Not with Nick, please... I just want you to be away from people like Nick... Yes, you can't find out their intentions so easily... But... In one or another way, you will get to find it somehow... Then, you need to be careful with them... I am scared because, I will not be with you every time to get a hold of you and tell you who is good and bad around you. And who has good intentions and who has bad intentions? You need to try it yourself... Yes, none came towards you until you get into a relationship because this whole world knows that, you were off-limits but suddenly getting into a relationship makes everyone curious." Martin said making Alexi sigh. 

"Yeah... I should have understood it at the starting..." Alexi replied.

"Look, Alexi... There are a few people... I mean, a few guys who are interested in you... And wants to date you... Just because of you were off-limits... They didn't bother you. But... Once this world got to know that you were dating... Everyone started getting curious about you and mainly... About us! You are not a small kid to not understand all these things... You should know that some hate me too for dating you... And some hates you too for dating me. It's normal for public figures Martin said and Alexi nodded her head. 

"Alexi... Look up at me..." Martin said as Alexi lowered her as she nodded her head but she didn't look up at Martin.

He sighed and kept his hand under her chin and made her look up at him.

"I am sorry if I am talking anything wrong." Martin said and Alexi shook her head in no.

"No... It's totally understandable... I can understand you... Don't worry... You are not at all wrong at your place... It just me... Who is wrong... And take everything and everyone wrongly." Alexi replied as tears rolled in her eyes.

"Alexi..." Martin said as he cupped her face. 

"I am really sorry..." Alexi said as a tear falls down from her eyes and seeing that tear Martin couldn't control himself and hugged her tightly and with that hug, Alexi couldn't control herself and started crying in his arms.

Martin took a deep breath as Alexi started crying in his arms. He just let her cry in her arms until she is okay... And didn't talk anything. 

He just caressed her hair as she cried harder on his shoulders.

"I am really sorry..." Alexi again said as she cried on his shoulder. 

"Alexi... Calm down..." Martin said.

"I shouldn't have talked about Mom like that... Knowing about her... I shouldn't have... What kind of a daughter I am when I can't even understand my mom's concern about me?" Alexi asked and Martin understood that her all anger was on her mother than about the society... For whatever they are thinking about Nick and her...

"Did you talk with her?" Martin asked and Alexi nodded her head.

"Did you apologized to her?" Martin asked and Alexi nodded her head making Martin smile.

"Then, that's a good thing... You don't at all have to feel bad when you already apologized to her, Alexi... She is your mother... She will understand you no matter what!" Martin said making Alexi shook her head.

"No, I talked so badly with her... I was so angry with her when she said that she is feeling low because of me in front of her parents... Just because I went out with Nick last night." Alexi replied making Martin sigh.

"Alexi, my parents are not like that... They will try to understand things as much as they can... They will not think wrongly... Don't worry... I will talk with them... Okay?" Martin asked and Alexi shook her head in no.

"No... I will apologize everyone..." Alexi answered.

"Alexi, you did nothing wrong to apologize to anyone... You just went out with Nick as a colleague and nothing else... You had pure friendship intentions... Whatever happened is not at all your fault... I can tell you if it's Nick's fault to not either... I will just say right now is it might be a big misunderstanding between everyone." Martin said and Alexi took a deep breath.

"Thank you so much for understanding me..." Alexi said looking into his eyes.

"Of course, Love..." Martin replied as he again kissed Alexi's forehead. 

"Martin..." Alexi called making Martin raise his eyebrows at her.

"Since... Nick isn't in the country... I will release a statement telling that we have nothing between us and just went out as a colleague... And I am happy in a relationship with you..." Alexi said making Martin smile.

"Are you sure?" Martin asked looking into her eyes.

"Yes... I want to just shut some dirty mouths that are talking wrongly about me and Nick." Alexi answered making Martin smile brightly.

"If you are sure then go ahead." Martin replied making Alexi smile. 

"I will just be back in a few minutes..." Alexi said and Martin nodded his head stepping back a little making Alexi turn around and she walked upstairs. Martin shook his head at her childishness and smiled. His eyes suddenly landed toward the kitchen and saw a scene that made him laugh out loud. 

"What are you guys doing behind the wall?" Martin asked as Samantha and Johnson were peeking from behind the wall looking at Alexi and Martin but they didn't expect to get caught red-handed.

"Don't hide... I already saw you both." Martin said making Samantha sigh and Johnson chuckle.

"I told you, Martin will find us out... But you didn't listen to me and started peeking at them and made me peek too..." Johnson said and Samantha sticks her tongue out in playfulness.

"You need to learn a lesson tonight." Johnson said as he made her lean against the wall making Samantha look into his eyes that made him feel like she is looking into his soul. 

"Your eyes... And looks are worth dying for..." Samantha didn't let Johnson finish his sentence as she pressed her lips against his.

"Don't talk rubbish..." Samantha said after she moved away from him.

"If you are going to stop me like this every time for talking rubbish then I will talk rubbish every minute with you..." Johnson replied looking into her eyes.

"Shut up..." Samantha said.

"Make me shut up then..." Johnson replied.

"I would do that gladly... But your brother might be watching us right now..." Samantha said and Johnson looked at Martin and saw him raising his eyebrows at him.

Johnson sighed as he stepped back from Samantha making her giggle which made Johnson smile.

Samantha turned around and walked out of the kitchen towards Martin and Johnson followers her. 

"Everything settled between you both?" Samantha asked and Martin nodded his head.

"I guess so..." Martin answered and Samantha smiled.

"No guess... It should be." Samantha said and Martin chuckle.

"Alright... It settled... Now tell me... Why are you peeking at us?" Martin asked. 

"It's your brother... Who wants to peek at you both! I don't have any hand in this." Samantha answered making Johnson wide his eyes.

"What?" Johnson asked with his wide eyes.

"What what? Don't try to lie now..." Samantha answered making Johnson chuckle.

"Are you serious?" Johnson asked and Samantha nodded her head.

"Yes... I am. You are the one that told me to let's peek at them... Didn't you? Don't lie now..." Samantha answered making Johnson raise his eyebrows at her. Samantha smirked at him making Johnson to nod his head.

"Yeah... So what now?" Johnson asked and Samantha raised her eyebrows at him.

"Apologies to your brother..." Samantha answered and Johnson looked at Martin.

"Should I?" Johnson asked Martin making him chuckle.

"No... You shouldn't have to, brother... Don't worry..." Martin answered with a smile. making Samantha's eyes wide and she cursed herself for trying to play around with Johnson and now, she knows that he will not let this go easily... Johnson looked at Samantha and shrugged making Samantha look at the other side.
