Chapter 258 - I'm afraid that decision cannot be made

Hazel drove out of Leo's house, her face expressionless. It was hard to tell what she was thinking. After a few minutes, a derided chuckle escaped her lips.

He took her to be a fool. Too bad he just messed with the wrong person. She didn't want this to happen that was why she asked him over and over again if he had any relationship with Claire but he denied every single time.

And now they were back together he wanted to toss her out like some used trash? Haha, he must be ridiculous to think that she would let him go just like that. Right, she didn't complete the story of her ex who cheated on her, he was found dead in an abandoned reservoir. Too bad, she actually began to like him.

She picked up her phone and dialed a number, it rang for a few seconds before the person on the other side picked;

''baby, where are you? I want to come over. '' She said in a cute tiny voice that was impossible to resist, the man on the other side made a mumbling sound;

'' I'm at work; let's meet later in the evening. ''

Hazel groaned; ''No, it's important, please… '' the man paused for a second;

''Alright, ''

''Thank you, baby, I'll be there in a minute, love you,'' she said and ended the call.

Dropping her phone on the seat, a smirk tugged on her lips, she would teach him a lesson, so next time he wouldn't mess with people's feelings.

When she got to the company, she walked straight to the elevator, the guards already knew her so they allowed her in when they saw her. They only stopped her when perhaps their boss's wife was around.

Hazel pushed the door open without knocking, a brilliant smile on her lips;

''Baby, I've missed you! ''

Douglas rolled his eyes; she never had manners, ''why don't you ever knock, what if I was with someone? '' he asked, trying to look angry, but he couldn't since his eyes were fixated on her b.o.o.b.s which she had purposely propped up.

Hazel bit her lip as she walked to him, kissing his lips;

''You would have told me if there was someone here; '' she grinned and turned his seat, then squatted to her knees;

Although Douglas had a son, he got married quite early, so he was still young, and he took care of himself, so he looked in his thirties, although he was in his forties.

Her hands came to his zipper and she pulled it down, taking him in her mouth.

His head fell back in pleasure as he held her head and guided her, she knew how to work with her mouth, that's why he took a special liking to her, and she was also very cute, quite impossible to resist. Douglas groaned as he jerked on his seat, his climax washing through him.

Hazel stood up and took some tissue paper from his table; wiping him clean, she tossed it into the bin.

Douglas sighed as he buckled himself; his eyes peering at her as she leaned on the table with a smirk on her lips. He knew her; she wouldn't be here like this without a demand.

''What is it? '' A light chuckle left her lips when she heard him;

''Baby, what do you mean; I cannot come to visit you without a demand? '' she asked with a coquettish grin;

Douglas leaned back on his chair, ''well, you can't be looking at me that way without a demand. ''

Hazel laughed; ''Oh well, you know me a little too much.'' The smile on her face disappeared instantly and was replaced with a wicked glare; ''the thing is, I want you to kill someone for me.''

…

Two weeks later…

Tiana was discharged a week ago. When the workers saw her, they all gave her a sorry look, but they were surprised that she wasn't looking sad; rather there was a smile on her chin. Strangely, she didn't lock herself up as they had expected, she even went for a swim and ate to her heart's content.

Some started gossiping, they said she might have planned the accident, and she was happy now since she would inherit all his wealth. Others said that they loved each other too much and that people dealt with losing a loved one differently, maybe this was how she dealt with hers.

Nicklaus hadn't been confirmed dead although there were speculations that he was since his body had not yet been found. The company needed to be overseen in his absence, so a meeting was called in the family house and they were to decide who to oversee the affairs of the company prior to when Nicklaus's body was found;

''If he has not been found after so long it would only mean that he is dead; ''

Tiana's eyes flashed at Douglas when he said that, and her eyes brimmed with hate;

''why are you so sure that he's dead?''

Douglas turned to her, a little surprised that she had the effrontery to cut him off, his eyes gazed at her up to down and he smirked;

''If he isn't dead, then he should be home by now, I know it is hard to take in…''

''and how is that a thing of joy? ''

She cut him off, anger flashing through her eyes; Diana was sitting beside her, so she held her hand, as though telling her to stop. Tiana gulped, coming back to herself,

''She's mourning; I understand the pain of losing someone you hold dear, now back to why we are here…'' Douglas was eager to get to the point, he knew he was the next in line, he didn't know why they were wasting time about it.

Grandma shut her eyes briefly, taking in a deep breath;

''Douglas, you'll oversee the affairs of the company for now, till Nicklaus is found; ''

The room was cold, although he was the next in line to the inheritance; no-one wanted him to have it.

Suddenly, the door barged open and a woman walked in with a smile on her lips;

''I'm afraid that decision cannot be made Mrs. Howells. ''

She chuckled lightly as she walked into the living room and sat down without any invitation.
