His Beautiful Addiction

Chapter 288 - Rot In Hell



Her chest heaved painfully as she turned to leave again;

\'\'Choose wisely Claire, his life is in your hands. \'\' Claire\'s heart skipped a beat as his words filtered into her ears. Did… did he just threaten to kill Leo?

\'\'You wouldn\'t dare… \'\' she stared brimstones at him as the words left her lips like daggers.

\'\'You forget that I am the president, he\'s going to die and no-one will say a word about it. But it is up to you whether you want to save his life or not, you have one week to decide. \'\'

Her lips filled with bile as she watched the monster sitting with a grin on his lips;

\'\'ROT. IN. HELL!! \'\'

Claire didn\'t know how fast she ran, all she knew was that she got to her room and began changing her clothes. She couldn\'t stay here, no, not even an extra second, unless she wanted to go crazy. Running out of the house, she asked the guards to take her back home and they complied without asking questions, she knew that man must have ordered them to let her leave.

She did not want to cry but the tears were welling up in her eyes. She didn\'t want to think about it, but her thoughts were flooded. Maybe it was a dream; maybe she would just wake up and see that everything was just a terrible nightmare;

\'Claire, wake up, wake up please!\' Claire pinched herself as she prayed silently but nothing happened. It wasn\'t a dream, damn, this was real.

Hazel looked at her watch, her flight was in a few minutes but she wanted to be sure that her plans succeeded before she left. He should call her anytime soon now; she thought and right as she thought about it, a call came in.

\'\'Is it done? \'\' Hazel asked and the person on the other side replied affirmatively;

\'\'The president threatened to kill him if she doesn\'t leave him, she doesn\'t have much of a choice.\'\'

Hazel smiled; \'\'good, I\'ll transfer the money to you once I get down. \'\'

\'\'Yeah, have a safe trip. \'\'

She ended the call and switched off her phone. She didn\'t have much left in this country, Douglas was dead and the gang dispersed already. If Leo had liked her, she might have started a new life here but he clearly didn\'t, so it was time for her to leave. She had made a lot of money working for Douglas, so she could live anywhere in the world.

Right now, she was happy. At least she left them with a gift, even if they would be together at the end, they would have gone through hell and back.

Smirking to herself, she came down from the car and walked into the airport.

\'\'It\'s beautiful. \'\'

Diana exclaimed as her eyes watched the ocean waves, she thought of a thousand places Michael wanted to take her but she didn\'t think he would bring her to the ocean and in the night at that. There was no-one, just the two of them and it felt romantic.

\'\'I\'m glad you like it. \'\' He said, a smile on his lips.

Diana took off her slippers and buried her feet into the soft sand,

\'\'what are you doing? \'\' Michael stared at her puzzled,

\'\'we came to the beach; don\'t tell me you\'re going to go back without feeling the water. \'\'

Before he could say a word, she started running towards the ocean;

\'\'Diana! Stop, you don\'t have spare clothes if you get those wet! \'\' 

Michael laughed as he watched her run, her legs almost touching the back of her thighs,

\'\'Come on! It\'s great! \'\'

She exclaimed and Michael sighed; rolling his trousers, he ran towards her.

Diana laughed as she ran further into the ocean, letting the waves push her backward.

\'\'I\'m free! \'\' Diana screamed, and her voice echoed in the distance. She laughed when she heard herself; this was so fun.

\'\'Hey! What are you waiting for? You are going to be very busy from now on; we might never come here again! \'\' She said as she sprayed water on him with her hands seeing that he was just standing and watching her.

\'\'Diana, we are going to get all wet, and you are an actress, do you want to make headlines? \'\'

Diana laughed; \'\'who cares!! \'\' she sprayed him the water again, laughing as she ran.

Michael smiled, he had not seen her this happy and jovial so he let her have fun.

Diana sprayed him water till he finally gave in and played with her. She laughed as she ran towards the ocean and he chased her. The water was on her thigh area when she saw the water waves rising; Diana\'s eyes widened and she turned back and sprinted towards Michael.

\'\'Stop! \'\' He shouted, the best thing to do now was to run towards the water, so the waves would push you out when it falls, but he didn\'t have time to explain it to her as she was already sprinting towards him.

Just when she was about the run past him, he caught her in his arms and hugged her tight as the water fell speedily on them, sending them crashing to the floor.

Diana\'s eyes shut tight as she lay on top of him, she waited a few seconds and when nothing happened she opened her eyes, and that moment, they locked in his smoldering ones.

Ba Dum!

That moment, she wasn\'t sure whose heart it was that was beating that loud, all she knew was that she could hear nothing else but intense racing of hearts.

Blink!

She didn\'t know how long they lay there staring at each other, but when she saw him blink she came back to her senses and stood up from him.

Her cheeks flushed when she realized she had laid on him for a little too long.

\'\'Ehem, we should go now. \'\'

Without looking at him, she began walking towards the car.

Michael stood up and followed her silently, a grin on his lips; did she blush all over that easily? \'\'
