Chapter 72 - Stop Frowning, You'll Get Wrinkles



Nicklaus held his breath until he was downstairs, when he got to the living room; he raised his hands to his tie and adjusted it, breathing heavily.

What did he just see?

He was just halfway down the stairs when he realized that he had forgotten an important file on the table and he turned around to go get it, only to see her with just a towel, standing in the room as though waiting to be devoured.

Does she even know that she was irresistible? How would she come out tying only a towel? What if he wasn\'t able to control himself?

Nicklaus groaned,

This woman! What is she turning me into?

\'\'Why are you looking as though you just saw a ghost? \'\'

Elizabeth, who just walked into the living room, asked Nicklaus with a smile on her face. She was sweating and with the towel around her neck, Nicklaus knew she just came from the gym.

\'\'Oh… Mm.. \'\'

Nicklaus coughed; his cheeks flushed more when he realized \'the ghost\' he had just seen;

\'\'Where is Tiana?\'\'

Elizabeth asked, looking behind him, when she did not see her, she turned back to him,

\'\'She\'ll be down in a bit… \'\'

Just at that moment, the door to the living room flung open, and they both looked towards it;

Diana stepped in, with another lady clinging to her arm. They were giggling about something and when they saw Nicklaus and Elizabeth, they quickly went to greet them.

\'\'Mom, good morning, \'\' Diana greeted and her eyes turned to Nicklaus briefly, he was having an aloof expression on his face as usual; they didn\'t have a close relationship, so she didn\'t know what to say to him.

\'\'Good morning, Diana. \'\' Elizabeth replied, turning to the lady by her side, she smiled;

\'\'Mia, it\'s been so long, how is your mom? \'\'

Mia\'s eyes were on Nicklaus but when she heard Elizabeth, she quickly turned to her;

\'\'Yes, Auntie, Mom is fine. \'\'

Mia replied with a smile. \'\'Is my sister here? \'\'

She asked, widening her eyes a little, and Elizabeth nodded.

\'\'Yeah, Michelle is here, I think she\'s upstairs. Dear, how was your shoot? \'\'

\'\'Arrgh!! Very stressful, we didn\'t even achieve much last night! \'\' Diana groaned angrily and her mom chuckled.

\'\'Sorry dear, freshen up and come have breakfast, okay? \'\'

\'\'Right away \'\'

Diana replied, dragging Mia along.

\'\'Oh Nicklaus, that is Michelle\'s sister, she\'s an actress too; I think she\'s working together with Diana… \'\'

Nicklaus face was dark as he gazed at his phone; Elizabeth took the cue that he wasn\'t interested in what she was saying;

Just at that moment, Tiana walked downstairs.

Nicklaus heard footsteps approaching, and he turned around and saw Tiana and his dark expression brightened instantly.

\'\'Beautiful, aren\'t you going to feel cold? Your clothes are too light. \'\'

He said as he walked to her, placing his both hands on her shoulders, his brows creased worriedly,

Why was he acting as though nothing happened upstairs?

Tiana wondered, her cheeks reddening, but when she saw Elizabeth, she figured he was acting again.

\'\'No, today looks very warm; I don\'t want to feel hot later in the day. Good morning auntie. \'\'

She replied, turning to Elizabeth with a smile;

\'\'Good morning dear, hope you slept well? \'\'

\'\'Yes, Auntie \'\'

\'\'That\'s good. You both have a nice day at work, okay? \'\'

Tiana nodded and Elizabeth walked towards the stairs.

Just when she had disappeared up the stairs, Tiana tried to free herself from his grip but Nicklaus pulled her towards him, his arm around her waist.

Her eyes shot up in shock as she gazed at him.

What was he trying to do?

Nicklaus gazed at her for a few seconds, then he spoke;

\'\'Let\'s have breakfast first. \'\'

He said, leading her towards the dining table.

The table was already set for two and when they approached, Nicklaus pulled out a seat for her to sit down.

Tiana wondered why he was still acting cute when there was no-one around, but still she sat down.

Nicklaus opened the dishes and the aroma of the oatmeal wafted into her nostrils. Nicklaus took a plate and put some of the oatmeal into it and placed it in front of her.

\'\'Eat. \'\'

He said; pouring orange juice from the jug into a glass cup and placing it by her side.

Tiana\'s brows puckered;

Why was he acting nice? Was there a camera here or something?

She raised her spoon half-heartedly and dug into the food.

Nicklaus watched her for a moment; then he raised his hand to her forehead and rubbed on it with thumb.

\'\'I told you to stop frowning, you\'ll get wrinkles. \'\'

Tiana raised her eyes at him, startled.

Was it because he saw her almost naked today? Was he getting lewd thoughts now?

His eyes were calm and loving as they gazed at her;

No, this does not look good.

She coughed and quickly gulped down a mouthful of her drink.

\'\'What was she going to do if he tried to touch her? He was already like this on the second day of their stay; she still had over 12 days together with him!! \'\'

She was still lost in thought, when suddenly she felt her seat shift and she was face to face with him;

Her brows creased as she wondered what he was up-to.

Nicklaus pulled her plate towards him and took a spoonful of oats and pointed it towards her mouth.

\'\'Eat. \'\'

Tiana\'s eyes widened so much that she nearly fainted from shock.

Was… was he trying to feed her now?

She couldn\'t understand what was happening? There was no-one there. Why was he pretending to be a loving boyfriend?

Tiana gulped as she forced a chuckle;

\'\'Mr. Nicklaus, there\'s no-one here, I can eat by myself. \'\'

She said as she tried taking the spoon from him, but he moved his hand away.

\'\'I don\'t want you to call me that anymore. \'\'

Nicklaus said and placed the spoon back on the plate. Tiana\'s lips fell in shock.

What did he want her to call him? Oh, boss. Yeah, she was an employee now; she should probably call him boss.

\'\'I\'m sorry; I forgot I was an employee now, I should probably call you boss… \'\'

\'\'No, \'\'

Nicklaus replied, cutting her off. His eyes carried a fresh glint, one that Tiana had not seen before.

She gulped;

\'\'What… what then do you want me to call you? \'\'

There was a second of silence between them before Nicklaus replied.

\'\'I want you to call me my name from now on. \'\'
