Chapter 138 - Nicklaus loved her (1/2)
Gwen, who was watching a reality show in the parlor, was stunned when she saw Tiana step out of her room, looking strange.
Not like strange, but like extremely shocking.
''Gwen, don't you think we need a car? '' Tiana asked carefreely as she walked into the parlor.
Gwen was stunned, for the past few days she had been on her own, moody and crying, but here she was, wearing bum shorts that accentuated her curves, exposing her hot legs, with a crop top stopping right below her rounds b.o.o.b.s, outlining her perfectly shaped stomach. Her hair was let down in waves and she had dark makeup on, and on her feet were heels;
Okay, what was going on?
Gwen couldn't help asking herself. Even before meeting Nicklaus, she had never seen her sister dress so sparingly, was she pushing herself to her limits because of him?
''Why are you staring at me like that, is my makeup not good?'' Tiana creased her brows, and she turned to the floor to ceiling mirror in the parlor to look at her reflection;
''You don't look bad, I was just… surprised, where are you going dressed like that?''
Tiana pouted her lips and smacked it as she gazed at her reflection, she was surprised at what she was seeing; she knew she looked good, but the person staring back at her on the mirror, was walking seduction.
She looked at her exposed thighs and she knew that if she didn't cover up a little, she might not get back home safely;
''Give me a second. ''
Tiana turned back to the room and changed to tight-fitting pants; it accentuated her curves in the right places but at least it covered some skin.
''So I was saying, don't you think we need a car, we cannot keep calling a cab all the time when we have the money. ''
Tiana spoke as she walked into the parlor again.
Gwen was surprised at her abrupt change, just yesterday; she looked like she was going to die any second, but today she was looking like there had been no issue at all.
Did she get over him that fast?
Although Tiana didn't want to hear any news about him, she had checked his updates behind her back and found out that he had resolved the issue in the company, but there was no news of any marriage. She was so shocked that she had to recheck and when she didn't see any news relating to his marriage or engagement, her eyes widened as she realized something.
Nicklaus… Nicklaus loved her.
She had overheard their discussion under the rain that day and after seeing his saddened expression and his reluctance to leave even after she had gone, she knew he liked her but she wasn't sure, but after seeing the news, her fears were confirmed.
But that did not mean that she would let her know, on the contrary, she was going to make sure she didn't know for a very long time. It was already over between them, there was no need opening up old sores; was there?
''Yeah, I was thinking the same thing, but we've not had driving lessons, ''
''That's not a problem, we'll go to the driving school, it doesn't take too long to learn. ''
Tiana replied, not looking at Gwen, her eyes checking out her reflection in the mirror.
''That's great, so we are getting two cars right? '' Gwen widened her eyes expectantly;
Tiana chuckled, ''I'll get one for you… ''
''Oh my God, thank you! You're the best sister in the world!! ''
Gwen exclaimed happily but Tiana cut her off immediately;
''After you graduate from the makeup academy. ''
