Chapter 53 - Alex's wishes to April

"Are you trying to flaunt me now to your subordinates?" April looked at Alex, as the elevator door closed.

"When have I hidden you?" Alex held April's waist tightly, as his other hand pressed a special code. So that the Elevator will go ahead straight to the Penthouse without interruption. The Penthouse had a specific code for the elevator to reach its floor.

"But your wife?" April pursed her lips. It was the first time that she mentioned the name again, ever since she fainted.

Alex turned towards April and captured her mouth. "From tonight on, I'm all yours." He murmured before kissing her again.

"Alex.. We're in the elevator.." She said in between kisses. There were security cameras; For goodness sake!

As if Alex couldn't hear a thing, His hand caressed her bottom as he slid his tongue inside her mouth. He pushed her into the corner, so that she was in the blind spot of the camera. Only his back could be seen.

"Uhmmm." April m.o.a.ned.

Although they kiss here and there like this, Alex had always stopped himself before he could no longer stop himself. Alex then withdrew from her lips and tackled her neck.

April held on Alex's neck, as she felt her knees starting to buckled together. It's different tonight, she thought.

"Alex.. uhhhmm.." She m.o.a.ned as Alex kissed her neck and her collarbone.

"You taste so sweet baby.." Alex lick the top of her b.r.e.a.s.t teasingly.

He then withdrew and looked at April. Just in time for the elevator to reach its destination. April's heart was beating fast. Her lower body was screaming for release.

As if he could read her mind, Alex smirked. "That's your appetizer. Come on, let's eat. I need you to have some energy for tonight." Alex winked at her as he held April's waist as he guided her into his Penthouse.

April gulped. Is the beast back?! Oh no. Although she does want Alex to make love to her, she knew that she couldn't handle him that much. He was too much of a beast in bed!

-----

Inside the penthouse, it pretty much looks the same as Alex's villa. All modernize and luxurious.

Just that, April's mind wasn't paying attention to her surroundings. All she knew is that Alex was guiding her out towards the dining table.

Beside it was a glass window, the night lights of the City of London was show casing it's magnificence. It was as if, Alex had timed it well on when to come here. April could enjoy her dinner while looking outside.

"This place is beautiful." She commented.

Alex was looking at her, her eyes shined as the city lights reflected on them.

"You are more beautiful." Alex lifted his hand and tuck some strands of her hair.

April blushed and smiled. She took a deep breath and asked. "Did something happened Alex? I know that you said you'll take care of everything, but I'd like to know. What happened to you and your wife?"

Alex smiled, he knew that April would be able to see the changes in his eyes.

"I already filed for divorce, almost 3 weeks ago. She didn't want to sign and asked for a chance to get back together. She begged for me not to leave and that she would change for the better."

April was stunned. She couldn't believe that Alex was finally letting his wife go. She gulped. Her eyes became watery, so she looked down. "What happened then?"

Alex sighed and shrugged his shoulders. "Nothing happened, at least for now. I still went forward with the divorce. By tomorrow, she should receive some news about it. If she wants to fight for it, we will have to meet in court. If not, all ends well."

Seeing that April wasn't responding, Alex lifted her chin up. Tears was flowing down her face.

"Oh baby, why are you crying?" Alex wiped the tears on her eyes.

"I feel that all of this was because of me. Because of me, you are divorcing your wife." April pressed her face into his chest and hugged him.

"I'm sorry for ruining your relationship. I just.. I.. I didn't meant to fall in love with you. I didn't plan on it. Even when you brought us here. I just wanted our son to have a father, even if it meant for us to become just friends. It was already more than enough for me." April confessed as she cried in his arms.

Alex was shocked at first and then he chuckled. He patted her back as he hugged her tight. "Silly girl. Nothing is wrong with falling in love. If you say sorry for it, Do I have to say sorry too for falling in love with you?"

April froze and withdrew away instantly. "What did you say?!"

Alex smiled devilishly. "What did I say?"

"You said.. You said.." April pursed her lips.

"That you're a silly girl?" Alex tilted his head as he tease April.

"Alex!" April yelled and smack his chest.

Alex rubbed his chest, acting that it hurt. "Ouch woman! That hurt."

"I didn't even put my strength on it!" April's brows crossed together.

"Hahahah. Alright. I didn't know you could get feisty with me too. I said that, I fell in love with you. Do you want me to say sorry for it too?" He pulled her waist closer to him.

"Do you mean it? You aren't just saying it?" April looked at Alex's eyes. Looking for the answers that he wasn't lying. That he meant everything he just said.

Alex leaned down and rubbed his nose to hers. "I love you and I meant it. Can't you hear my heart beating for you? Since I'm about to be single again. Will you make me the most happiest man ever alive, April? I wanted to wait, to wait till the day I am free.

But the longer I wait, I felt suffocated. I wanted to tell you so bad. That from now on, This heart of mine will be yours. If will be up to you, if you want to cherish it or destroy it. Just be gentle with it though. It had just recently been patched up, my ex-wife had left it get dusty and moldy on the corner of the house."

Alex smiled happily as he looked at April's eyes. Making sure that she understands what he meant. That from now on, He would never let this woman go.
