His Beautiful Addiction-Chapter 384 - You Shouldn’t Have Messed With Her

Nicklaus' grip around his gun tightened, his eyes looked around the large hallway checking for hideouts,

To think Liam was foolish enough to tell him the total number of men he had, and here he was thinking that he would have gotten some sense after getting a head injury.

"Why don't you stop talking and come out let's get this over with, You're wasting my precious time."

Liam laughed,

"Ah, no, what's the fun in that? Wait… now I think about it, you know we look a lot alike, how about I kill you, do some plastic surgeries and take your place beside your beautiful wife. ƒ𝒓e𝐞we𝚋𝙣ｏ𝚟𝚎𝘭.co𝙢

You know, when you're dead, I'll surely inherit everything, but not your wife, but I also want your wife too, so how about that."

Nicklaus scoffed,

"Liam, never knew you lived in a soap opera,"

All the while he was engaging in the discussion with Liam, his men were taking strategic points around the house.

Nicklaus continued to buy time, as one of the guards signaled the other guards outside to surround the house,

Liam laughed out at his side joke,

"Nah, I'm actually going to make it a reality, I doubt I'll be the first to do that…"

As soon as he completed his words, a gunshot was heard, which sent one of Nicklaus' men rolling to the floor,

Nicklaus and the others, dashed to the ground and used the chairs and pillars for support. Now they could hear the stomping of Liam's men running towards them,

"Ouch, did I scare you?"

Liam asked with a derisive laughter,

"So sorry, I didn't remember to tell you that the game has started. My bad. Alright, I'm going to sit here and drink tea, while you all play,"

He concluded with a derisive laughter amidst gunshots.

Liams' men were shooting hysterically and all around, they waited till the gunshots died down, signaling they were about to reload, and then they came out and shot at them.

Since Liam's men were not hiding, about 10 were fired and the rest scampered behind pillars.

The fight continued, until about 25 of Liam's men were left and 8 of Nicklaus'

"I didn't want to cheat in this game, but I'm getting bored,"

Liam's voice rang out in the room,

"Boys, I want you all to target the second to the last pillar by the right, that's the man I want to kill."

Nicklaus looked up at the cctv camera in front of him, he knew Liam was referring to him.

Liam's hysteric laughter resounded over the speaker, but Nicklaus just smirked,

Liam who was thinking he was going to fidget was surprised to see him smiling,

"I suggest you wipe that smirk off your lips, Nicklaus,"

"Even when you have 20 men coming after me you're still intimidated by my smile, tsk, you're still a weakling after all."

Nicklaus signaled the men outside to come in as he engaged with Liam, breaking the door would take a while, so they put a small explosive on it and bombed it open.

In an instant, the guards jumped in and covered Nicklaus and he immediately escaped from there, running towards the stairs,

Liam's guards didn't notice he had escaped since they were busy fighting with the new set of men that just entered into the house.

Now, some of Nicklaus' men quickly stood around the stairs preventing Liam's men from going back up.

One of Nicklaus men quickly shot the speakers and cctv in the room, preventing Liam from communicating with his men.

Nicklaus walked stealthily up the stairs, and stopped at the end of it and listened.

He was sure Liam was in one of those rooms, but he wasn't sure which.

Turning to the left, he started walking all the while listening,

He was almost at the end when he heard a sound coming from the other side of the hallway and he turned around.

Walking towards the door, he held the knob and listened, quietly he pushed the door open,

Almost immediately, gunshots rained on through the door,

Nicklaus hid behind the wall as he waited, as soon as there was a moment of silence, he fired some shots into the room,

The shootings resumed erratically but Nicklaus remained put,

Unlike Liam, he was actually trained for this, looking around, he picked up a nearby picture frame,

"Didn't know you had other men situated outside, that was a smart move huh,"

Liam finally spoke with a derided chuckle,

"Didn't know you didn't think outside the box, any sane person would know I wouldn't put all eggs into one basket."

"Haha, interesting, but I'll make sure you crawl on your knees and beg for your life…"

"Shh… you talk too much."

Nicklaus cut him off distracting him for a second, and then he threw the picture frame into the room, Liam turned towards the picture frame to shoot and immediately Nicklaus rolled into the room, shooting as he went.

A bullet caught Liam's leg making him fall on one knee.

He raised his hand and continued shooting about, but Nicklaus was nowhere to be seen.

"Come out! Come out you fool!"

Liam blared as he shot about at the furniture in the room.

Nicklaus was quiet as he waited for him to exhaust his bullet. He was scared so he would just keep shooting everywhere in a bid to kill him. 𝗳𝒓𝙚e𝓌e𝚋𝙣𝚘𝐯𝙚𝙡.𝑐૦ｍ

And as he had said, Nicklaus heard the clinking of the trigger meaning that he had exhausted his bullet, and he swiftly rolled out of his hideout and kicked the gun out of his hand, a blow landing on his face right after, sending Liam falling on the ground and writhing in pain.

Nicklaus breathed out and dropped his gun on the desk,

Squatting, he clutched Liam's hair and gave him another punch on the face and then another one, and another, and another.

The blood that flowed down Tiana's face came rushing back to him as he kept punching Liam on the face,

"You shouldn't have messed with her."
