My Stand-In Groom Is A Secret Tycoon (Audrey) novel Chapter 95

On the way back to the hall, Alistair remained silent.

Audrey was also a little flustered. After some hesitation, she gently shook his arm and said, "Don't be angry, okay? I don't like him anymore."

Her eyes were sparkling, and her voice was sweet. She was acting coquettishly like a seductive demon without herself knowing it.

Alistair's Adam's apple bobbed up and down as he asked, "Who do you not like?"

Audrey tilted slightly and said playfully, "Dominic, of course. I promise to stay far away from him in the future. Next time, don't believe whatever he says. Just listen to me."

"Listen to you?" Alistair raised his eyebrows, his eyes filled with curiosity.

Audrey's expression was sincere as she slowly promised, "I am your wife. As long as you don't abandon me, I will never leave you. Other than you, no one can affect my determination."

Alistair's heart, which was already beating fast because of her coquettishness, seemed to have been stirred up by a huge wave at that moment.

He looked at the charming girl with a bright smile beside him and finally couldn't help but pull her into his arms.

His embrace gradually tightened, as if he wanted to melt her into his bones and blood.

Audrey felt pain in her waist but did not retreat. Instead, she raised her hand and hugged his lean waist.

Sensing his trembling, she patted him on his back like coaxing a child.

Alistair hugged her even tighter.

Audrey felt slight pain from being hugged, and a hint of hesitation surfaced in her heart. 'What is going on with him? Why is he still so uneasy?'

Audrey did not know how to comfort him. She could only let him hug her silently.

But gradually, she felt that she was almost suffocating from the strangulation, so she could only gently push his chest.

Alistair suddenly came back to his senses and let go of her. For the first time, he asked nervously, "I'm sorry. Did I hug you too tightly?"

"No." Audrey smiled and shook her head.

Alistair did not believe that. His eyes were filled with guilt.

He wondered why he always couldn't control himself in front of her.

Audrey's heart ached. She could not help but raise her hand to stroke the creases between his brows. She said gently, "I'm fine, Alistair. You don't have to be so careful.

"I'm not a porcelain doll. I won't break because of a hug. But don't hug me for so long next time. It's awkward if others see us."

Alistair came back to his senses. He held her hand and kissed her tender fingertips. "I promise that in the future, with me around, I will never let you get hurt again."
