His Beautiful Addiction Novel

Chapter 32 - Never See Her Cry Again


Tiana closed the door quietly behind her; she waited a moment before she continued downstairs; she knew he wanted her to oppose or maybe cry like before but she was no longer that person who cried at the tiniest peeve, he made sure of that.

There was one way to tame a devil, and it was by denying him the satisfaction of seeing his prey in pain.

And as far as she was concerned, Nicklaus would never see her cry again. Never!

After what happened in his room, she knew he was very mad and he would surely get back at her, but she was never going to let that happen.

This was the first time she had defeated him, and she knew she hurt his ego and he would get back at her, but she would ever be prepared for him.

She would always be one step ahead; she would make sure of that.

That night, after dinner, Tiana searched her wardrobe for some good work clothes; she selected a silk blue shirt and high waist suit trousers, with heels. After trying them and seeing that they were her size, she quickly ironed them.

After ironing, she took her bath and lay down on the bed, just when her eyes closed, they shot open immediately and she rolled to the side of the bed to her alarm clock on the drawer and she set the alarm to 6 am.

After that afternoon, she didn’t want to take chances. Nicklaus always went to work by 8am, but after what happened; she had a feeling that he would come out earlier just to find a reason to punish her, so she would be out by seven waiting for him on the front porch.

The next day, she woke up to the alarm clock; she had not had a decent sleep in a while so her eyes were still groggy but she struggled to pull herself from the bed. Hurriedly, she took her bath and applied her cream and wore her clothes.

Just when she looked at herself in the mirror, she realized that the clothes were so fitting that it showed a sumptuous amount of her curves.

Her cleavage was even peeking out of the blouse.

She didn’t even apply makeup, but she was already too beautiful.

No, she didn’t want to look like this, drawing more attention to herself; but it was too late to change clothes, so she thought of what to do.

She stared at the mirror and her eyes fell on her hair, which was falling down her back, and a thought entered her mind. She immediately took a band and packed it up into a tight bun.

But she was still too pretty; the hairstyle had exposed her neck and defined her round babyish face. She bit her lower lip as she thought of what to do but then her eyes looked towards the wall clock and she saw that she was already a few minutes to seven, so she quickly hurried out of the room, she would plan well for other days when she comes back, because there was no time for that now, she was already late.

She sat on the couch in the parlor, going through her phone and peeking at the stairs once in a while. At exactly forty-five minutes to eight, she heard some footsteps on the stairs. Quickly, she stood up and walked out of the house and to the front porch.

The guards were already waiting for their boss, and when they saw her, fully dressed, walking towards them, they were surprised.

Tiana didn’t speak to them; she just stood by the side as she waited for Nicklaus to approach. Nicklaus was putting on a suit with his jacket in his hands, and his prodigious coldness etched to his face.

His eyes scanned his guards and when it fell on her, it stayed there for two seconds before he looked away.

A guard quickly held open the car door for him to enter, and he hopped in without a word. Tiana was puzzled;

He had not said a thing to her. Did he want her to trek on her feet to the company?

Tiana felt anger rising in her throat;

Well, she wouldn’t be surprised if he let her trek to the company; there was nothing he would do that would surprise to her anymore.

She folded her hands as she watched him enter the car.

The guard closed the door and opened the driver’s side to get in; Tiana watched without saying a word. She wanted to know what he was up to.

The other guards walked to the other cars and got in; but just when they started the ignition, Tiana saw Nicklaus hands come out of the window and order her to come to him.

She stared at the car for a few seconds then swallowed her rising anger, before walking to the car;

Nicklaus gaze was on his tablet and without glancing at her, he said;

”Enter the car behind. ”

Tiana did not reply to him, she just walked to the car behind his and entered the back seat.

She really hated his guts. But she just had to put up with him for four months.

Just four months more.

When they got to the company, Tiana walked behind Nicklaus, taking her steps slowly, one after the other.

The employees in the company were shocked when they saw him with a woman.

They gawked at them, shock written all over their faces.

They held their gossips in their throats as they waited for him to walk past; and immediately he entered the elevator with the woman; the whole place exploded.

Who is she?

Why is she following the boss?

The boss is gay, right? Or is he not?

Is she a client? Or his girlfriend?

They asked a million questions that none of them had answers to, and when they were tired, they returned to their posts, but the shock of that morning never left their minds.
