His Beautiful Addiction

Chapter 317 - Honeymoon



As he said those words, tears fell down her face.

\'\'It\'s not true… \'\'

Her voice trembled as she spoke; \'\'Leo would never do this to me… \'\'

\'\'You think I\'m lying, then call him then, call him and ask him if everything I said is true, I won\'t tell petty lies, Claire. \'\'

Claire\'s face turned so red and a river of tears flowed from her eyes.

\'\'All my calls are directed to his voicemail, he doesn\'t pick them anymore. \'\' She cried as her head fell. Mr. Howard smiled and stood up from his seat;

\'\'Oh dear, don\'t cry, don\'t cry. \'\' he walked to her and consoled her;

\'\'I\'ve always told you, I know the best for you. When I saw that man, I knew he wasn\'t the one for you. Don\'t worry, I\'ll find someone good for you okay? \'\'

Mr. Howard patted her back and he was surprised when she didn\'t push him away as always.

Finally, he had gotten her.

A smirk grew on his lips. Leo was very stupid to think he could make such a deal with him and win. No woman would wait for a man that abandoned her that way.

This was just the second month, by the time the six months were over, she would have been long married.

After crying for a while; Claire stood up from her chair;

\'\'I\'m going inside now, I need to rest, I think I have a headache. \'\'

She said and stood up, turning to go back to her room. 

\'\'Sleep tight, I\'ll send some guards over if you want anything,\'\' he said but Claire did not reply, she just kept walking.

A smile broadened his lips as he watched her walk away, finally, he had succeeded. The next step was to get the perfect man for her.

He wouldn\'t overwhelm her with it immediately; he would let her heal from her broken heart first.

There was a lot of time for that; he would take it little by little.

Claire closed her door and the sad look on her face disappeared instantly. 

Her father was such a funny man. She knew she could deceive him easily. When one was driven by greed they would be so blind to things staring right at them.

She walked lazily to her bed and lay down.

Now she would swindle him till the six months were over and before he even knew what was happening, she would be married to Leo.

Leo had come for Tiana\'s wedding but no matter how much she missed him, she tried to hold herself back from talking to him. These days she didn\'t want to see him often so she wouldn\'t be tempted to talk to him.

It was hard, but she was going to pull it through to the end.

Nicklaus zipped up Tiana\'s dress as he placed a soft kiss on her neck;

Tiana smiled and she raised her phone up and took a picture of them in that pose, with him kissing her neck. A beamed as she looked at it.

She took a few more pictures of them and posted it on IG,

They were traveling for their honeymoon, and they were staying up-to a month. Tiana was happy she would have him all to herself for that long because she knew he would be very busy with work when they came back.

Nicklaus\' hand stayed on her back as they walked down the stairs;

Tiana\'s eyes fell on Gwen who just walked in with a towel around her neck, she was wearing her gym clothes and when she saw them she smiled;

\'\'Gwen good morning! \'\' Tiana beamed, she was radiating as she walked down the steps;

\'\'Tiana, how are you, honeymoon already? \'\' she smiled;

She had seen the guards loading their luggage in the car, so she knew.

\'\'Yeah; \'\' Tiana smiled excitedly; \'\'we\'ll be back in a month\'s time. \'\'

\'\'Alright, enjoy yourselves! Get me a Birkin bag when you\'re coming back. \'\'

\'\'I will. \'\'

\'\'Take care of yourself, Gwen. \'\' Nicklaus said and she smiled and waved them bye.

Gwen folded her hands as she watched them walk away, the guard opened the door for them and they entered.

Tiana waved at her as the car drove away and she waved back with a smile, but the smile disappeared as soon as the car was out of sight and a scowl formed on her face.

One month, one month was enough to get everything ready before they came back.

Gwen nodded to herself and turned around, walking to her room to wash off her sweat.

Unknown to her there was someone standing afar off watching her quietly.

The blinding lights from the cameras flashed on Diana\'s eyes as they drove into the venue for the welcome party.

She hated flashing lights. They hurt her eyes.

\'\'Are you okay? \'\' Michael asked, as he stopped the car;

\'\'yeah; \'\' she nodded with a smile; breathing out.

She knew the cast and crew but she hasn\'t met most of them in real life. Even the main characters; the female lead was a popular actress too but she had never been on the same set with her.

\'\'Are you ready? \'\'

Diana nodded, and Michael turned to get down from the car so he could open the door for her but that instant Diana stopped him;

\'\'Wait! \'\'

He creased his brows and turned to her;

\'\'What\'s wrong? \'\'

She turned to him in shock; \'\'I think my zip just snapped; \'\'

Michael\'s eyes looked at her back; \'\'seriously? \'\'

\'\'yeah, seriously. \'\' she laughed;

\'\'Okay, let me see if I can fix it; \'\' he said and Diana turned around, she didn\'t have a choice though. She had a thousand other clothes she would have worn, but she wore this one and it just had to snap. And in front of the venue at that!

If he couldn\'t fix it, then they had to go back;

Diana adjusted on the seat so Michael could see her back, his eyes fell on her smooth skin and he swallowed; he had been trying to control himself from touching her, but seeing more and more of her skin was not making it any easier for him.
