\'\'I trust you\'\'

Nicklaus heaved a sigh of relief when he heard her; he just realized he needed to hear those words. He was very grateful that he had her by his side now; he didn\'t know what he would have done without her.

\'\'You didn\'t have breakfast, let\'s go eat? \'\'

Tiana raised her head from his chest so she could look him in the face; Nicklaus swallowed.

Eating was the last thing on his mind at that moment.

\'\'I don\'t want to eat... \'\'

\'\'I know you don\'t feel like eating, but you need to eat something, today would be very hectic, I don\'t want you fainting from stress. \'\' Tiana raised her hand to his cheeks and caressed his chin; her eyes staring at him lovingly; she continued;

\'\'And I couldn\'t eat without you this morning, so I didn\'t eat at all. So if you won\'t eat, I will not eat too. \'\' She pouted, staring puppy dog eyes at him, knowing that he would not let her starve. That was the best she could do for him. She would help him in any way she could.

Nicklaus pinched her cheeks lightly, a weak smile forcing its way to his lips.

\'\'Silly… \'\'

Tiana grinned, seeing that he had fallen for her tricks;

\'\'Let\'s go, my tummy is grumbling! \'\'

She smiled as she pulled him along, leaving the meeting room.

…

\'\'Mr. Nicklaus likes the miss a lot, Sir \'\'

The old man who sat on the large cushion creased his brows, taking off his glasses; he dropped it on the table by his side and breathed out heavily;

\'\'What do you mean? \'\'

He asked; if this news came a few weeks earlier, he would have been glad,, but the situation was different now. He needed to save the company he had taken years to build.

\'\'The miss stayed on the first floor and had been treated like a mere servant in the first weeks of her stay, but recently, he got her moved up to his floor. He lets no one stay close to him, but from the information I\'ve gathered, they sleep together in his room. A few days ago, he had prepared her meal himself!

Sir, to be honest, the young miss has him around her fingers now. \'\'

The man explained and Grandpa sighed. He really liked Tiana but his hands were tied now. He had no choice.

\'\'Alright, you may take your leave. \'\'

The young man bowed a little before he turned around and left the room.

Grandpa massaged his forehead with his fingers, his eyes closed in deep thought.

Everything was good until now. Why would this happen now?

…

\'\'Mr. Nicklaus, what do you have to say about the issue at hand? \'\'

The reporter asked with a professional smile; Nicklaus was sitting elegantly on the chair, his legs crossed. His face sculptured like a fine masterpiece and his emerald eyes piercing. For a split second, the reporters in the room wondered if he was really the CEO or he was a model paid to act as one.

Such a waste of beauty!

He would have done so well in the entertainment industry.

Nicklaus gaze rose from the paper in his hands and he looked at the reporter in front of him;

\'\'This matter has been a great cause of concern. I have always ensured that the beverages produced under our name are of the topmost quality, I am as shocked as you are that this nature of damage could occur, but I assure you we are doing our best to look into it. \'\'

The female reporter creased her brows;

\'\'Mr. Nicklaus, several victims have sued the company, do you accept that this injury was caused by your company, and are you going to pay for the damages?\'\'

Nicklaus was quiet for a second;

\'\'Well, the Lorries has produced one of the best beverages in the whole of USA for over a decade now, if something like this happens in a company with such a good name, I\'ll do my possible best to investigate properly and if these damages weren\'t caused by my company, I\'ll take legal actions against the persons involved. \'\'

The whole place erupted in muffled whispers;

Is he saying that it wasn\'t a Tee drink that was contaminated?

Ha! How could he say such when it was clearly a Tee drink that got almost a hundred people affected? Who is he trying to push the blame to?

Tiana swallowed hard as she listened to the surrounding gossip, her ear aching.

If Nicklaus could say something like that, it meant that he was sure that the contaminated drinks weren\'t from his company.

But who would be interested in tainting the image of the company in such a manner?

\'\'Mr. Nicklaus, are you saying that the Lorries and Co aren\'t responsible for the injury caused to the victims? \'\'

Nicklaus slanted his lips,

\'\'Like I said, we are looking into the matter closely, and we\'ll let the public know of any improvement. Thank you. \'\'

He completed and stood from the chair, walking towards the exit. A swarm of reporters raced after him, but his guards did well to block them off from getting to him.

Once he was outside, he turned around, his eyes scanning for Tiana.

When he didn\'t see her, he became apprehensive.

Was she still inside?

He wondered as he watched the security stop the reporters from going after him. They had completely blocked the entrance; there was no way she could leave.

\'\'Baby… \'\'

Just when he was about walking back into the building, he heard a voice call him and he paused;

Turning around, he saw her panting lightly, and he heaved a sigh of relief.

He walked to her and his brows creased when he noticed she was breathing quickly;

\'\'Did you run a marathon? \'\'

He asked as his brows rose in surprise;

Tiana looked behind him and saw that the security was doing their best to hold the reporters back because he was still there;

Pulling her eyes back to him, she smiled;

\'\'Let\'s get into the car first. \'\'

She said and started walking forward, Nicklaus following.
