His smile made her heart skip a beat. She knows that he is trying to understand her inner conflict as well and she is the same thing for him. Not everything would be fine in just one day. Maybe it will take on for them to repair the damage that they both did to each other.
But Anna is willing to wait. She is ready to let go of the old things and start anew. Clearing her own mind first before she could process everything further on. Not only that, she saw how sincere he was in what he said.
"Yo..You are trying your level best, Alex." Anna said to which he nodded his head.
"I never did anything wrong to you and tried to love you with my whole heart. I guess that was no crime. We both were young and our trust was broken once. We needed to repair it so that we can take things to the next level." Alex's words did make sense to her.
But they aren't young anymore. They are already old enough and they have a daughter to handle as well. Aside from their daughter, they once were deeply in love. Is that love still present in between them?
She doesn't know for him but for herself, she can guarently say that it was still there. Standing under the skylight, she can only hope that this goes the same for him as well.
Anna lowered her head at this thought but then, she heard Alex's voice, "Anna....I'm sorry for whatever I said before, for being rude to you but I won't be sorry for what I'm going to do now.."
"Wh-" before she could have finished what she was going to say, Alex pulled her into his embrace and held her face from back to bring his lips on hers and pressed against each other.
Not only that, Anna was too shocked because of the sudden kiss that she received. But consciously, she closed her eyes and just let Alex do water to her lips. He licked it like any other soft and sweetest thing in the world.
Biting it slowly, a m.o.a.n escaped from her lips and Alex took this to his advantage when he entered his tongue into her mouth making her almost go crazy. Her legs were going weak and to support herself, she needed to hang onto his shirt.
After five minutes, when he finally recorded after absorbing and draining all the energy from her body, he saw her face from so close proximity that it made him say, "You are beautiful just like before.."
Anna, whose eyes were initially closed, lifted her gaze to look at his face where her mouth was almost touching his nose. Her wide eyes held some surprise but he chucked at her this expression as well.
For him, he can never get tired of her face in his entire lifetime. Even if they grow old and they both aren't able to walk, and when she has the wrinkle, he is still willing to love her in that situation no matter what happens to them.
"Anna… stay for one night. Please?" He requested her what he wished to say. Something that came deep from his heart and he knew that she wishes for the same thing.
"I..i.. have to go back... I can't." Anna broke from his embrace and was ready to go back to where Kiara was but he held her waist from behind. "You just kissed me back, still you look so reluctant?"
He hit her on the deep spot. She never wished to admit that he kissed him back and liked what he did just now. Hiding all her romantic feelings away from him but it looked like that wasn't possible for there right now.
"I...It was just a kiss, nothing more so stop thinking anything else. I know you have Olivia in your life." Anna, whose face was flushed due to embarrassment she felt her heart when she realized that she might have come in between him and Olivia.
But before she could even think something else, he cleared her off, "Anna, how can you even think that I will look at someone else except you?"

Meanwhile in the bungalow of Jack.
It has been almost five days since her wedding but she never stepped out of her mansion. Not because Jack restricted her but he made sure that she doesn't get lost in between.
But deep in her heart, she wished to talk to her father-in-law and clear out those misunderstandings. Even the aunt, the maid of the house said that it was their both ego that stopped them from communicating with each other well.
Yes, if Jack said that his father cheated on his mother but maybe, there is also another side of it. That day, when he told her about this, she was very angry but now, when she gave it a thought in a calm manner, her mind and heartfelt that there was a second side to it.
This time, Jack wasn't in the house. He went out because of his work and also, to handle her family issues.
Alena just saw aunt was in the kitchen where she also was behind and asked her in a favoring tone, "um… aunt, can you please make some tea for father? I guess I will go and serve him."
Aunt, who looked quite surprisingly, just nodded her head, "It will be ready in the next few minutes. I shall bring it out." Alena went outside and waited for some time.
When the tea was ready to be saved, she looked at the plate that was handed over to her, even when she never said that she would formally go to her father-in-law.
Passing her a suggested smile, she answered, "I know what you are thinking, child. Just do as you wish because you are exactly on the right track."
Alena wished to ask more but she kept her mouth shut and only brought the tea along with her to her father's mansion. There, she made her way to the first floor where her father-in-law's study was situated.
Taking a deep breath, Alena kept her one hand to knock on the door, and when she heard a deep cold voice, "Come in."
Opening the door slightly, Alena put her foot ahead and opened the door with one hand while adjusting the tray in another.
When Father saw her, he was not only shocked but also angry to see. "What are you doing here at this point?"
"I'm your daughter in law and that is my duty to make sure that you get proper food and take medicines on time. So, I brought tea for you." Despite the continued glares she was receiving, Alena didn't feel scared at all.
Instead, her will to clear off the misunderstandings and improve the strained relation between father and son gave her enough courage.
"You are my daughter-in-law… you know in this house, there was no lady allowed to be there?"
