Chapter 55 - Mad



\'\'See you soon, Mr. Park. \'\'

Nicklaus answered; ignoring his question. He stood up from his chair and without thinking held Tiana\'s hand and walked out of the house pulling her along.

Tiana couldn\'t believe her eyes.First, she was shocked that Nicklaus had terminated the deal with that man instead of giving her to him but most importantly is the fact that he was holding her hand!

He was walking so fast that she had to run a little to meet with his pace. He didn\'t let her go until he was outside the house.

Tiana was stunned beyond comprehension. Nicklaus was so frosty that she felt that he would explode any minute. Was he angry because he had to lose the deal because of her? She wondered.

When the driver saw them, he stepped out immediately and opened the door for them; Tiana stepped in quickly and Nicklaus followed, slamming the door after him.

The car was eerily quiet; the driver didn\'t know what happened but he knew better than to say a word.

Nicklaus knuckles were so white; it looked like it would pop any minute.

He wanted Tiana. He fucking told him that to his face!!

Nicklaus couldn\'t contain his boiling anger; he raced his hand angrily through his hair.

At that moment when he heard him sprout those words, his first impulse was to pull him out of his chair and knock off those words from his mouth, but on a second thought, he restrained himself. He was not with any guards and doing that was going to endanger Tiana\'s life; he could not risk harming her.

But that doesn\'t mean that he would let him go free. No, he would make him regret ever making that statement so much that he wished he had not woken up that day!

Nicklaus was still boiling with rage when he suddenly heard a still voice call him;

\'\'Young Master… \'\'

Tiana called, her voice quivering. Nicklaus froze for a second; then he turned to her;

Her eyes were red and moist and she looked scared as she watched him; the moment Nicklaus saw her face, he felt tranquility wash through him and he suddenly became calm.

\'\'Your hand… \'\'

He didn\'t realize that he had broken the screen on his phone from how hard he gripped them until Tiana called him. He looked down on his hand and he eased his grip; some of the glass shards had pierced into his palm and it was bleeding;

He stared at his hand for a moment, dropping his phone on the seat; he took out his handkerchief and wiped the blood from his hand.

Some of the shards were still in his hand and he clenched his jaws when he dabbed the hankie on it.

Tiana watched him in shock; what was really wrong with him? She wondered. There were beads of sweat on his forehead and his eyes were gazing at his hand. Her eyes looked to his hand and she saw the tiny shards of glass on them.

She didn\'t know how to feel; was the deal so important to him that he had hurt himself when he lost it? And because of her… he had lost the deal because he didn\'t give her to that man?

Right, he had shown her to his family, if they knew that he had given her to another man, what would they think of him? That would make him lose the trust of his family even more. That was the only reason why he would help her in exchange of such an important deal.

Nicklaus did not say a word till they got back to the hotel, and even when they reached the penthouse, he just entered into his room. Tiana watched him walk to his room without a word;

Was he just going to sleep like that without attending to his wounds?

Her brows creased with worry; even though she had revulsion towards him, she was grateful this time, although it was for himself, he had not given her to that man.

So, she turned around and walked out of the room and back to the first floor; she walked to the receptionist with a smile;

\'\'You\'re welcome ma\'am… \'\'

\'\'Do you have any first aid here?\'\'

The woman was speaking but Tiana cut her off impatiently; the receptionist paused then continued;

\'\'yes ma\'am but it is for the occupants of the hotel, can you tell me your room number please? \'\'

The woman asked professionally; Tiana thought for a moment,

\'\'I stay in the penthouse. \'\'

Tiana replied and the woman nearly burst out laughing; the only person that stayed in the penthouse was their boss, was this woman joking or what?

Although she knew that, she couldn\'t tell her upfront that she was lying, she still had to reply professionally.

\'\'Ma\'am, I\'m sorry, but we need to see your ID to confirm what you just said.

Tiana rolled her eyes; she knew that would happen and, she didn\'t even look rich enough to afford the penthouse. But what would she do? She couldn\'t go back up without the first aid! Thinking for a second, she inched closer to the table and narrowed her brows;

\'\'Listen, the occupant of the penthouse is injured and instructed that I get a first aid box; do I go back up and tell him that you asked for an ID? Never mind, I\'ll just go back and tell him that the receptionist… \'\'

\'\'Wait! \'\'

Tiana pretended to be leaving but the woman quickly stopped her. She thanked her stars because she knew there was no way she was going to get a first aid if she had let her leave.

The woman\'s glare was intense when Tiana turned to her. She was not certain that the woman in front of her was lying but she didn\'t want to take chances; there was no wrong in giving a first aid box after all.

\'\'I\'ll order someone to get it. \'\'

Tiana smiled at her;

\'\'Thank you, please be quick. \'\'
