"Just be very careful now and move around with guards. I have a plan on ground on how to catch him but for now, stay safe."

"What are the doctors saying about Tiana?"

Diana asked,

"She is in a coma, as a result of the injury she had on her brain, I don't know when she's going to wake up."

Diana sighed. Just when she thought everything was about to become perfect. Why now?

Nicklaus remained quiet for a while, lost in thought. Diana imagined what he must be going through, given how much he loved Tiana.

"I'll be going now, take care of yourself."

Nicklaus said, standing up from the chair,

"You too, we'll come see Tiana when he's a little better."

Diana said as they walked him to the door.

After he left, she turned around and hugged Michael,

"We'll be fine." He said, patting on her back.

Leo and Claire sat beside Tiana, looking crestfallen.

They couldn't believe that someone who was so full of life would be lying on a sick bed the next second and struggling so hard not to die.

No one was speaking, the only sound in the room was from the machine helping her breath.

Claire held her hand, as tears fell from her eyes.

"she'll be fine, she just needs to wake up and everything will be fine."

Leo tried to console her but it did little or nothing to stop Claire from crying.

Nicklaus was sitting in front of them, not saying a word.

He didn't talk much but right now, he seemed like a shadow of himself.

His eyes were empty as he stared at her.

Leo and Claire stayed for a while before they finally left. 𝒇𝘳𝐞𝚎𝓌𝑒𝑏𝒏𝑜𝙫ℯl.c𝚘𝒎

The room grew cold and quiet. His eyes remained on her unwaveringly,

It was already dark, but he had been sitting in the same position since morning and barely speaking to everyone that came by to see her.

For a moment, he wished he was the one who had gotten into the accident, and in comatose, because the pain he was going through was unimaginable.

Nicklaus leaned forward and took her hand, pain spread through his back from having sat at a place for hours but he didn't wince.

Taking her hand, he kissed it. It was cold. Very cold.

If not for the machine signaling she was still alive, she looked dead.

Nicklaus closed his eyes as he prayed earnestly,

Beautiful, please… wake up…

Tears fell freely from him eyes. His lips parted as he heaved a sigh, letting out the pent up pain tearing through him.

Liam…

He would never forgive him for hurting her. He was going to get him and make him pay dearly for messing with Tiana and this time, he would make sure he remained dead.

"Boss, we've located him."

Gwen's eyes turned to the guard who had just walked in.

Her heart banged against her chest…

Was it Liam? Did they find him?

Just as he said that, Nicklaus flung up from the chair and ran out of the ward.

Gwen stood up instantly, walking towards the door,

A few guards remained to guard Tiana while the rest followed him out.

Gulping, she turned to one of the guards and asked,

"who did they find?"

"Oh, Liam, the man that tried to hurt the boss's wife."

"Oh, okay, that's great."

Gwen forced a smile, which she tried so hard to make real, turning back to the room, she closed the door.

Her eyes wandered around the room in fear and she dashed for her phone,

She had to tell him now, she had to tell him that Nicklaus was coming for him.

Picking up her phone, she wanted to dial his number but she stopped,

What if Nicklaus goes through his phone and finds out that she was communicating with him?

If he finds out, he would also know that she had helped him cause the accident.

Her hand shook as she quickly dropped the phone. Brushing her fingers through her hair, she paced around the room.

What would she do now?

What would she do?

Her eyes turned to Tiana on the bed and rage filled her.

Even on your sick bed you're still ruining my life!

She cussed beneath her breath as she gritted her teeth.

If Nicklaus found out then she was done for.

She prayed earnestly that Liam doesn't tell on her.

Or even better, Nicklaus should kill him before he did that.

Nicklaus stepped out of the car and loaded his gun,

He didn't think Liam would hide in his own house.

"Let's go."

He said to his guards as they walked stealthily towards the house. As they approached, the front door was open,

The guards looked at themselves,

They were sure he didn't know they were coming. Was it a trap?

Nicklaus hesitated for a moment before he walked in, his guards followed behind.

As they walked deeper into the house the front door jammed close.

The guards turned to it, surprised. Did he know they were coming for him?

Before they could comprehend what was happening, they heard a voice from a large speaker

"Hello, brother. What took you so long?"

Liam asked with a mocking laughter.

Nicklaus stopped at a spot and listened,

"You know, I stayed in the easiest place to find me and yet it took you a whole week, one whole week, come on, I thought you were smarter than that."

He said, laughing hysterically.

"Why don't you come out of your hiding spot, and face me, don't tell me you're still the weak little puppet of your mother?"

Nicklaus said, and the house grew quiet.

A smirk formed on his lips, he had succeeded in getting him angry.

"You know," Liam continued, sucking in a breath.

"You are in my house right now, and you cannot leave because I have locked all possible exit. I can see you but you can't… you are with a total of, let me see… 15 men, but I have not less than 50 men waiting for my signal, that is to say, you are fully surrounded, so I advice you watch the words you say, I mean, I'm going to kill you, but I'm sure you don't want to die too soon."
