His Beautiful Addiction

''Not only an acting CEO, after he is confirmed dead, I also want you to support me to become the chairman.''

Tiana stared at him for a minute and then she smiled; '' I will support you. '' She paused; ''Douglas, I don't want to fight with you, I just want peace. If it's the company you want, then you can have it. ''

She said with a sincere smile; ''Is that all, can I go now? ''

Douglas didn't believe a word she said, what he was sure of was that Nicklaus must have told her about him, so saying she supported him now, was quite hard to believe.

''what do you want? '' He asked, there was no way she would be that stupid and gullible, maybe she wanted something in return.

''Your head on a platter; '' Tiana said looking serious but suddenly she laughed, ''Oh don't mind me, I just want peace. ''

Douglas was confused for a brief second, this woman… she was a little strange.

''How do I believe you? '' He asked and she smiled;

''Because I know you killed my husband. '' Douglas was quiet; he didn't accept it but he didn't refute it either.

''You killed him and I don't like you, but I don't want any more bloodshed either, if it's what you want then you can have it, as long as you don't shed another innocent blood. ''

Douglas adjusted his tie on his neck; ''I killed him because he didn't know his place, if he had just reasoned with me, then he would not be dead now. But it's good that you're more understanding than your husband, people who love peace, never get into trouble.''

Douglas smirked, and then he stood up from the couch; ''I would have let you go but Catherine Wills might come to you with a more enticing offer, so you're going to stay here till next tomorrow, rest assured you would be treated well and no harm would come to you. I'll send a guard over to take you to your room. ''

He said and turned around walking out the door. Tiana kept the pitiful look on her face till he closed the door and then her gaze turned deadly;

She never thought he would be so stupid as to fall for a few words, too bad she got what she wanted but the thing is, she couldn't stay here for two days, she might be caught if she stayed for too long, she must leave now. ''

Tiana stood up but just when she was about walking to the door, the door flung open and Michelle walked in with elegant steps. When Tiana saw her she smiled brightly, just the right person she was looking for.

''Why are you smiling? '' Michelle seethed as she walked to her. Her husband just told her the outcome of their discussion and she came to laugh at her that the only man who gave her a voice was gone, and now she would return to the slums where she came out of, but Tiana just smiled when she saw her, did she take her for a fool?

Tiana walked back to the couch and sat down; ''Michelle, were you always this loud and a trouble maker? ''

Tiana asked with a hint of mockery in her words, Michelle's face turned a shade of red;

''How dare you? ''she blared with anger, fume seething through her nose. She never liked this woman, right from the first day Nicklaus introduced her to the family she hated her. Douglas told her to watch her tongue in order not to make her change her mind, so she closed her lips and forced a smile;

''Well, that loose tongue of yours would soon be cut off as soon as your so-called husband is confirmed dead. I thought he was strong? I thought he had a lot of guards around him? But a simple accident sent him to his grave; he died like a puppet, haha, what a shame! '' She laughed; ''you rejected my son, right? You're going to watch him take over the company while you are tossed out of the family like the piece of trash that you are!''

Michelle wanted to see her cry, she said all manner of hurtful things to break her, but Tiana right now was looking at her as though she was a clown.

"Are you done? '' Tiana asked; ''I mean you stopped talking, so I wanted to know if you were done? ''

The anger brewing inside of Michelle increased so much that she instantly raised her hand to slap Tiana;

''Uh uh, stop there; I wouldn't do that if I were you. '' Tiana didn't move from her position but she exuded an aura of fear that made Michelle stop;

''You seem like a tigress but you go around screwing your brother-in-law like a loose cat. ''

Michelle's face drained of all color and she shook on her spot, all the elegance she had walked in with washed away and she looked like a wet puppy;

Tiana laughed; ''Oh, weren't you going to slap me just now? Did your hands get broken? ''

Michelle couldn't utter a word; she just stared at Tiana like an obedient grade 4 student.

Tiana shook her head as she laughed at Michelle scornfully; ''I know right now, what must be going on in your head is_ how am I going to kill her to shut her up?

I' m going to kill her before she leaves this room and tells my husband, haha '' Tiana laughed and turned to Michelle with an authoritative glare;

''If the tiniest hair gets missing on my body, your sex video would be released to the whole world and even before Elizabeth hears of it, you would be torn apart by the devil you call a husband. ''

Tiana smirked intimidatingly, making Michelle shudder. 

She had underestimated this woman, lord, she had underestimated her. Nicklaus did not just marry a woman; he married a tigress who was going to tear them all down with her bare hands.

Michelle's eyes watered; ''what… what do you want? '' she asked, stuttering. Her husband was a devil, if he hears of this she was as good as dead.

Tiana beamed like a sweet girl as though she did not just break Michelle's legs with her words;

''I want you to sit down. ''
