His Beautiful Addiction

Chapter 124 - Love Was Stupid



Tiana went to her room to brush, after which she put on shorts and a loose shirt. When she returned, Nicklaus was already done dressing. He was just buttoning up when she stepped in.

She smiled and walked to him, helping him to finish buttoning up;

Nicklaus watched her with affection in his eye, his hands going around her waists; Tiana smiled when she caught him staring at her.

''We look like newlyweds, don't you think?''

Nicklaus asked, his arms going around her waists; Tiana's blush deepened and she slapped his chest before getting out of his hold;

''Don't get wild thoughts, get going now, you're already late!''

She scolded, her blush deepening;

''So, I don't get any kiss? ''

Nicklaus pleaded, pouting cutely; Tiana glanced at him before she tiptoed and pecked his lips;

But just when she wanted to let go, Nicklaus pulled her in, deepening the kiss for five seconds, then he ended it with a peck, making Tiana's face hot red.

This man…

''I'll come back soon, okay? ''

He whispered against her ear, and she nodded.

''Make sure you eat something, okay? ''

She pleaded, he wouldn't eat at home, and if she wasn't there, she wasn't sure he would eat. Nicklaus sighed;

''You know it's hard to eat without you now, ''

''Try, I'll be sad if you don't eat. ''

She pouted, and he nodded; she had really mastered the skill of making him do whatever she wanted and sadly he couldn't even resist.

Tiana smiled and pecked him for the last time;

''let's go. ''

She watched them drive out of the compound, it was just a few minutes but she was already missing him.

Argh! This was bad.

He had enveloped every inch of her senses. Could she even live without him at this rate?

Tiana had just finished having breakfast, and she lay on her bed, staring at her phone. She really wanted to text Nicklaus, but knowing that he would be very busy, she decided against it.

She was missing him to death already but she would wait, it was just a few hours and she would see him again. She shouldn't be an obsessive girlfriend.

Tiana thought as she clicked on YouTube and started watching makeup tutorials.

She might get a chance to go back to doing what she loved most; she had given up on make up when her sister wanted to pursue it too. And because of the limited funds, she let her sister go, but now things were a lot better, she had a lot of money now, and she had him.

Suddenly Tiana's eyes shot open as a realization dawned on her;

With a flash, she scrolled down and her eyes fell on the date.

Her heart raced rapidly;

Five months ago_ yesterday, she had made a deal with him to save her sister, it was already June 17th, how did things change so fast?

Not only had she saved her sister, she had fallen in love with the devil himself.

It was crazy!

Never in her wildest dreams did she imagine that she would fall for him!

When did it even begin, her love for him?

Now she thought about it, she didn't even know when he started to grow on her, and without even realizing it, she fell in love with him.

Could she have been stupid?

Well, love was stupid.

Without a blink, she had forgotten everything he had done to her, and throwing caution into the air, she flew into his arms.

Without even a second thought, she had given her all to him.

What if she regretted it later?

Tiana sucked in a deep breath and shook her head immediately;

Love was a risk, and that risk she will take with him.

Even though it sounded crazy, she will trust him no matter what.

She will trust that he would never break her heart.

Never break her heart…

Tiana woke up to a knock on her door, her eyes glanced at the wall clock, it was just past one. Was he back already?

Jumping up from the bed, she ran to the door with smiles on her cheeks and pulled it open. But the smile dwindled when she saw who it was.

''Veronica? ''

Her brows creased, and she looked behind her and her heart sunk when she didn't see anyone.

''Tiana, guards from the ancestral home are waiting for you outside, get dressed quickly. ''

''The... the ancestral home? Is Nicklaus with them? ''

She asked and Veronica shook her head,

''No, he isn't. ''

Tiana smiled; ''Okay, let me wear something, I'll be down in a minute. ''

Veronica nodded and Tiana shut the door.

Why was she having a bad feeling about this?

Tiana was downstairs in five minutes; as she stepped out, she got a more chilly feeling.

Hope everything was fine…

''Ma, the Young Master asks us to escort you to the ancestral home. ''

They were four guards standing by the two black cars; and the first one spoke, pointing towards the car.

Tiana swallowed, why was she having a bad feeling about this?

If Nicklaus wanted to see her, he could have sent his own guards. Why must he use the guards from the ancestral home?

She hesitated a little, but then, it wasn't as though she had a choice.

If they could get into the house easily, that means the guards from the first gate recognized them;

Taking in a deep breath, she walked forward and entered the car.

When they reached the ancestral home, she scanned around for Nicklaus' cars but she didn't see any and she became worried;

''This way Ma'am ''

The guard, who had spoken earlier, pointed towards the house and she forced a nod.

She really didn't feel good about this, but she didn't have a choice either.

The guard took her to a room at the far end of the hall way on the first floor.

Her brows creased as she realized it was a study. There was a little library stuffed with books, a table and three sofas.

There was an open newspaper on the table and a half-finished herbal tea in a cup;

Was this Grandpa's study?
