Familiar

''Hmm, very interesting. ''0

Catherine exclaimed as the man in front of her gave her the details.

''Let me see the pictures you have. ''

Catherine spoke, stretching out her hand to the man, and he handed a file to her;

She dipped her hand inside of it and took out a few pictures; they were pictures of Nicklaus and Tiana in the company property. Her brows narrowed when she saw the picture of the woman beside Nicklaus.

''I think I've seen this woman before… where have I seen this face… '' Catherine shut her eyes and thought trying to recall when she had seen her face. Suddenly, the door to the study opened and Liam walked in with a towel around his neck. He looked like he just finished a run, as he was sweating all over.

His steps dilated when he saw that there was another person in the room.

''Mom? ''

''Son, come over here, this face, have you seen it before? '' Catherine spoke when she noticed Liam walk in; he strode over to where she was standing and peeked at the photo and he froze instantly;

''I don't know, but I feel I've seen this face somewhere… '' Catherine continued still staring at Tiana intently;

Liam felt a painful tug on his throat as he stared at Tiana together with Nicklaus,

''How did you get the picture? '' He asked, avoiding his mother's initial question.

''I made someone capture them, Nicklaus is going out with this woman, and I wonder who she is… have you seen her before?'' She asked again, raising her eyes at her son.

Liam waited a moment and then he shook his head;

''No, I don't. '' He replied, forcing himself to appear cool.

When did she start going out with him?

He felt his heart squeeze so painfully;

Since that day he had met her at the coffee shop, he had not gotten her out of his mind. Sometimes, he would intentionally drive past Howells Corporation to know if he would see her again, but his attempts had all been futile.

To think she was seeing Nicklaus!

Would he fight with him over a woman too?

Liam wondered in his head but he did well to hide it.

''Mom, I'll be heading out for a while, won't be back till late in the evening. '' He said and began walking towards the door, not wanting to remain there for another second.

''Alright, drive safely. ''

She spoke as she watched Liam walk through the door,

''is he serious about the relationship? '' She asked the man after Liam had left, her eyes scanning through the many photos.

''I don't know, but I think he has a soft spot for her. '' 

''You know or you think? Investigate properly and report back to me, I don't work with uncertainties. ''

''Yes Ma'am '' 

The man replied, bowing a little before he left through the door.

As the room returned to a still quietness, the woman on the couch smiled wickedly;

It seems Nicklaus did not realize that his enemies were out to destroy everything he cared about. It would have been better he had never looked at her because once his affection for her is confirmed; she would forever be in danger because she would become his downfall.

But Nicklaus barely talked to people, it might just be a mere assumption but then, she can't let it slide without investigating. 

If the investigation turned positive, then her success might not be far from achieving after all.

A wicked laugh left her lips, and she stretched her limbs happily.

Her skin was still brilliant after so many years; if only his foolish father valued what he had!

Well, it was too late now. He chose that stupid woman; I hope they enjoy the rest of their life in the grave!

She fisted her hand angrily before laughing out like a maniac.

Soon, they should expect their son too, it's been so long; they must have missed him so much.

''Oh my God, Ha ha '' Tiana laughed as she watched the movie, she never knew a movie could make someone laugh so much. Her eyes were already teary from so much laughter.

''The Trip to Greece, she didn't even know how they went from looking over horror movies to selecting such a laughter filled movie, and she wasn't regretting it one bit.

Half way into the movie, she turned to look at Nicklaus and saw that he was resting on the seat and staring at the large screen, his lips stretched into a smile; it seemed she wasn't the only one enjoying the movie.

She thought as she turned back to the screen, dipping her hand into the bucket of popcorn that was already half empty.

''Did you enjoy it? ''

Tiana asked as they stepped out of the theatre, her eyes wide as she waited for his reply.

''Yeah, I think so. ''

Nicklaus replied as he scratched the back of his head;

''Aish, can't you just say I loved it, what is 'Yeah, I think so?' '' Tiana asked, mimicking his tone. ''I literally caught you laughing a few times!'' She continued, her lips forming a slight grimace.

Nicklaus gaze turned to her and he smirked;

''That means, you were watching me? ''

He leaned closer to her such that their lips were almost touching; Tiana's eyes widened and she inched backwards instantly;

''What?! How could I be watching you, I just noticed a few times when you laughed?! '' She replied embarrassedly and Nicklaus laughed, his eyes forming crescents.

''Ah, I only laughed a few times, and you caught them, that means you were watching me throughout. ''

He replied with a grin, making Tiana glare at him.

''Fine, we're not watching a movie together again! ''

She exclaimed and began walking forward,

''Ha ha ha, wait Beautiful, I'm sorry. I was only joking, don't take it to heart. ''

Nicklaus laughed as he walked after her, catching up to her steps; he put his hand around her arm, holding her to him.
