Diana burst into laughter as she took in Mia's heinous expression.
''Wait, do you mean you're prettier than me? '' Mia's eyes flashed open; she could not believe what she just heard, or more exactly, she never believed that anyone was prettier than her.
Diana was beautiful but Mia had attractive eyes, which highlighted her features.
''Don't mind me; we both know you're sleeping beauty, but Tiana is stunning, you need to see her. ''
Mia rolled her eyes and fell back on the bed;
''Whatever, I'll still chase him, anyway. ''
''Ha-ha, change into something comfy and stop daydreaming, let's go down for breakfast, I'm famished.''
…
Nicklaus sat in the board meeting, the clerk read the minutes of the former meeting but his eyes were fixated on Tiana, who was sitting beside him. He was staring at her, as though he was in the cinema and she was an interesting movie. The board members shot them weird glances, wondering what had gone wrong with him.
Even when the clerk finished reading the minutes, Nicklaus did not budge; it was as though there was something on Tiana's face that he couldn't stop staring at. Tiana was so red that she was finding it hard to breathe; everyone in the room was staring at her as though she had given Nicklaus a love potion the previous night.
The board members feared him so they could not call his attention; they were just looking at Tiana as though it was her fault.
Tiana turned to Nicklaus, her eyes locking in his. He had a tender gaze in his eyes as he stared at her, one that she had never noticed until now. For a split second, her heart skipped a beat, but she quickly blinked;
He was just being controlled by his desire. If he had his way with her, he would surely toss her away. There was no way someone like him would be truly interested in her.
She shouldn't be carried away.
Forcing a smile, she leaned closer to him;
''Nicklaus, they are waiting for you. ''
She whispered loud enough for him to hear her;
''Mmm… ''
Nicklaus replied; his lips slanting into a smile, but his eyes were still on her as though he did not hear what she just said,
Tiana's brows creased;
Why was he still staring at her even after he heard what she said? She turned to the board members, and they were all still watching her as though she just killed a lone cat.
What! Why are you all staring at me like that? I've done nothing wrong!
Tiana whined internally, and she turned to Nicklaus again.
''They are waiting for you, they. ''
She emphasized, pointing towards the board members. Nicklaus traced her hand slowly, and he saw his employees staring at him like they just saw a horror movie; his brows furrowed and his cold glare returned instantly.
''begin! ''
He spurted coldly, sitting upright in his seat.
He didn't know why, but he had been staring at her since they entered the office. After she forgave him that morning, he found everything she did very charming, her smile, her voice, everything.
God, he was going crazy!
Tiana heaved a sigh of relief when Nicklaus looked away from her; this was just the beginning, but she was already suffocating. How was she going to pull this through?
After the meeting; she arranged the file and followed Nicklaus into his office.
''These are the files from today's meeting. '' She spoke, dropping the files quietly on the table;
Nicklaus nodded as he sat down on the chair; seeing that he would not tell her anything, she turned around to leave.
''Beautiful… ''
Tiana's feet stopped moving forward when she heard him speak and she turned around with a sweet smile on her cheeks;
''Yes? ''
''I want you to move your things here; you'll stay with me in my office from now onwards. I'll call some workers to move your desk ''
Tiana chuckled;
''Why? Don't you think you'll get obsessed with this pretty face? ''
She showed by cupping her cheeks with both hands, her eyes curving into crescents.
Nicklaus face reddened instantly; he wasn't expecting her to reply to him in such a cute manner. Coughing, he adjusted his tie;
''What? No! I'm not telling you to stay here so I can watch you; I just… I just don't want to have to call you whenever I need you. ''
Ok, that came out wrong.
Nicklaus only realized how ambiguous his words sounded when it came out of his mouth; he cursed internally and quickly corrected himself;
''Ahem! I mean, whenever I need you to do some office task, I don't have to call you to come into the office, you'll… ''
''Okay, okay, I understand. I will really like to stay here with you too. ''
Tiana cut him off with a beautiful smile; Nicklaus words stopped on the tip of his lips as she spoke. His heart suddenly started racing. Does she always have to be this cute with everything she did?
Nicklaus swallowed hard as he stared at her.
If only she knew how long he had waited to have this type of conversation with her.
''I'll go pack my things now, okay?''
Tiana concluded with a beautiful smile. Turning around, she walked towards the door and at the same time, the smile on her face disappeared like a flash.
She didn't believe it when people said it before, but now she thought about it, women were really men's weakness.
How the great and mighty had fallen, Ha-ha!
She never believed that one day Nicklaus would speak to her in such a tender manner, and stare at her without glaring. But he shouldn't worry, she wouldn't deal with him yet, she would let him enjoy this fleeting moment and just when he had fallen too deep to come out, she would crush him.
He should just wait.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
