His Beautiful Addiction-Chapter 385 - A New Devil
Nicklaus only stopped when his hands began to hurt. Liam's face was barely recognizable; his nose was broken on all sides as he coughed out blood from his mouth.
Nicklaus stood up and dragged a chair towards him, sitting down on it; he took out a hankie and wiped the blood off his hand with it.
''You should have employed trained men if you wanted to outsmart me, I can't believe that this was all you got for all the ranting you did over the phone.''
Nicklaus commented as he tossed the blood-stained hankie across the room.
Liam coughed loudly as he turned weakly to look at Nicklaus;
''Kill me and get on with it already; you bastard!'' he cursed as he coughed out more blood.
''I will, but you didn't think I would go through all these just to give you a simple death did you? ''
Nicklaus said, and almost at the same time, the door opened and one of the guards walked in with a can and placed it beside Nicklaus;
''Are you guys done with the men? ''
''Yes, Boss; ''
''Alright, wait outside '' the guard nodded and walked out of the door.
Liam's eyes turned to the can by the chair;
''what… what is that? What do you want to do to me? ''
Nicklaus didn't reply, instead, he shot Liam on both legs crippling him;
Liam's scream resounded in the room as the agonizing pain shot through his whole body.
''Oh my god, please just kill me, just kill me already. ''
Nicklaus placed the gun down and pulled Liam up, making him sit on the chair.
''you should have just gone after me; you didn't have to touch my woman. ''
Tears fell from Liam's eyes as he held onto the chair for support;
''That was the only way I could hurt you, you killed my mother, you dumbass! ''
''She killed my whole family, you should have turned a new leaf when you had a chance, but you just proved that you are no different from your mother,''
Nicklaus said as he reached for the can;
''What… what are you doing? ''
''I should make you pay; ''
Nicklaus said, ''for hurting my wife, and my friend.''
Liam watched Nicklaus open the can and then he smelled gasoline;
''no, no, please, you can't … please don't… '' Liam screamed as Nicklaus poured the gasoline on him, partially washing off the blood on his face; ''
''Don't do this, please just shoot me, don't do this; ''
''You left me with no choice, I hope in your next world, you can be a better person,''
Liam begged for some while, and suddenly started laughing, he was in so much pain but he continued to laugh;
''Did you ever wonder how I got to know where your wife was going and the particular time? '' 𝐟𝚛e𝐞𝙬𝗲𝒃𝓷𝒐𝘃e𝒍.c𝑜m
Nicklaus who was still spilling the gasoline stopped and looked at Liam;
Liam laughed; ''I thought I should tell you, but what is the fun? You would get rid of him instantly and live a happy life, nah, I don't want that, how about a new devil to fight with? ''
Nicklaus' fingers gripped the can fiercely as he stared deathly at Liam,
''Or you can set me free and I would tell you who he is?''
A subtle smile crossed Liam's lips. He had intentionally said He, so in case Nicklaus didn't release him, he wouldn't even think of Gwen as the culprit. As long as she had such an evil mind to give away her sister, she would be a very hard pill to chew.
Nicklaus, who was quiet, suddenly continued spilling the petrol.
''What? You don't want to know who he is? ''
''I do, but not from you, I'll figure that out myself. I would kill the devil I know first before searching for one I don't know.''
Nicklaus walked to the door spilling the petrol as he went,
Liam seeing that Nicklaus wasn't going to spare him, began to plead;
''Hey, don't do this, please, I promise to leave you alone, please, please; ''
''Enjoy your next world, brother.''
Putting his hand into his pocket, he took out a lighter;
''Wait! Please, don't do this! I'll tell you the person! I'll tell you! Nicklaus!''
Nicklaus dropped the lighter onto the fuel train and watched it race towards Liam setting him on fire.
''No! No!! Bastard! You are going to die! Bastard!! ''
Nicklaus shut the door and locked it, amidst Liam's resounding cries.
Going back downstairs, he saw his guards standing outside, with the car door opened for him to walk in;
''Where to, boss? ''
They asked as he approached,
''Home ''
He wanted to see Tiana badly and tell her he had dealt with Liam, and it was finally over, but he stank of blood and he didn't want to see her looking like this, even though she was still in a coma.
Getting home, he took off his clothes and disposed of them, showered, shaved clean, and dressed neatly as though he was going on a date with his crush.
Standing in front of the mirror, he smiled when he saw he looked good.
The guards were standing outside with the door opened, he got in and they shut the door. The guards were also excited that it was all over, they were just a little sad that she wasn't awake yet.
Nicklaus stopped by a flower shop and got a beautiful flower; the guards were surprised, did he want to give a sleeping woman flowers?
They wondered but they didn't say a thing. Getting to the hospital, Nicklaus walked straight to Tiana's ward. Pushing the door open, his feet paused when his eyes fell on her on the bed.
Even though he knew that she was not awake, for a second, he wanted to push the door open and see her sitting down, eating a meal with a beautiful smile on her face.
But she was still sleeping, and only the sound of the monitor welcomed him.
Smiling faintly, he walked into the room. There were two maids watching after her, with a wave of his hand, he sent them away. After the room became quiet, he sat down beside her.
