''I don't know. '' Nicklaus sighed; at that moment, that was one of the hardest decisions he had been faced with. He was torn between telling his Auntie about her cheating husband and holding onto the information in case he needed it in the future.         

Tiana took one look at him and saw he looked troubled, she knew he was faced with indecision; his auntie Elizabeth was a good person and she deserved to know the truth but was it the best decision to take?

Thinking for a moment, she rubbed his arm; ''we can keep the information, for now if Elizabeth knows about it now, we would have given up any shot we could have had against Michelle and Douglas, and I'm sure she would support your decision when she finds out. ''

Tiana said, trying to make his decision easier. Nicklaus sighed; ''I could never have thought that he was capable of that. ''

''Me too, he's the quietest of all, he didn't seem like he could hurt a fly,'' she said.

There was a moment of silence between them; ''let's go have lunch, okay?'' Nicklaus said, trying to change the topic.

Tiana nodded; ''give me a second, let me call my friends back, they must be really worried. ''

''Alright, ''

Michael sat in his office, his eyes reading the news over and over again; the news was about the death of the Chairman of the Howells Corporation, but that was not what caught his fancy. The fact that Diana smith was related to him came like a shock.

He could not believe his eyes. She was the chairman's granddaughter, how had he missed such an important detail?

Michael wondered as he scrolled up, reading the news over and over again.

After some seconds, he flipped to her IG page and he saw that she had posted about his death already.

He withdrew into his chair. Even though he was not Catherine Wills' biological son, he was the current CEO of Warren Corporation and both companies had a strained relationship; he never thought that the only woman who finally caught his fancy was a part of that family. Yes, strangely, he had not stopped thinking about her ever since that day. He found himself going to her IG page every single time he was less busy, as though that was not enough, he binge-watched her movies and TV shows, just to see her laugh, smile or cry. He wanted to see how she looked when she did those things, and without him knowing, he was slowly falling for her and now he could not get the thoughts of her off his head.

He had been with a lot of women, but with this woman, he felt something he had never felt before, a strong connection that he could not ignore.

He wanted to stop thinking about her, hell, they just met once, but his mind would not give in. And right now, knowing that she was from the Howells family, he should finally crush all thoughts of her, but surprisingly, he felt drawn to her more.

Michael ran his hand through his hair; this was pathetic;

He had a lot of issues to worry about, why was she invading every single aspect of his thought?

 He forever regretted not taking her contact when she asked, now he was going to rely on luck to meet her again.

Michael groaned tossing his phone across the table, laughing at himself.

Why was he killing himself over a woman that might have forgotten him?

Or has she not?

Diana lay on her bed, her eyes staring at the pictures of a man named Michael on IG, her face scrunched up in disappointment.

She couldn't even place what made her think she could find that Michael in a million other people with the same name. She wished he had told her his last name; it would have made her task easier.

Diana sighed. Ever since that day, she had not stopped thinking about him, she thought it was something temporal until she realized he occupied her mind almost every single moment.

She did not realize that Greg was slowly seeping out of her thoughts and getting replaced with Michael until she found out she did not think about him once for three days straight! It came as a shock to her. She had loved Greg for the most part of her life, she even got wasted in a bar because of him, how she could forget him in a blink of an eye was baffling. Well, the saying, getting over a lover is made quicker by getting another was true all along. But wasn't she crazy?

How could she not stop thinking about a man who clearly didn't want to have anything to do with her; he had rejected her number as beautiful as she was, and didn't even offer to give her his. Diana pouted sadly;

Maybe he had a girlfriend who he was heads-over-heels for?

She felt her heart sink at that thought. Maybe that was the reason why he had made no advances at her and didn't bother with her number.

A sad sigh left her lips;

His girlfriend must be really lucky to have someone like him, a perfect gentleman.

She should stop thinking about him now, thinking about him this way would push her back into the pit she had struggled to come out of, the difference was just the person involved. Besides, he must have forgotten about her by now, it was stupid having these thoughts for a total stranger.

Diana thought, her eyes closing briefly.

Suddenly she heard a knock on her door. Standing up, she opened the door, it was Richard and he had a glare on his face. Diana bit back her laughter;

''Come downstairs, the lawyer is here. '' He said and turned around to leave. Diana's grin faded and her mood dampened instantly.

Even though she had pretended not to see, it was clear that her family was in a mess.

If grandpa's will was read today and it didn't go in favor of anyone, there would be great chaos. They had been fighting a silent war, pretending that everything was fine because of Grandpa and now he was gone, she knew there was nothing that would hold them back anymore.
