His Beautiful Addiction-Chapter 380 - Flat Line And A Pulse

Her body jumped and dropped back on the bed, but there was still no pulse.

"Damn it!!"

His throat tightened as he repeated his actions but her body just fell limply on the end over and over again.

"Beautiful please… don't leave me… baby please, I beg you…"

Nicklaus cried as he held her face, his tears falling on her.

The doctors tried to pull him off her but he was unmovable.

He just stayed there hugging her and weeping profusely.

What do I do? What do I do?

His groaning brought tears to one of the doctors' eyes and she turned around, walking out of the room.

The other two fell their heads as they waited for him.

Nicklaus hugged her, kissing her neck.

"You promised we were going to spend the rest of our lives together. I can't live here without you, please just come back, I can't survive without you, Tiana please… please… I beg you."

His voice shattered as he wept like a baby. He had not experienced such agony in his entire life. Not even when his parents were killed in front of him.

Suddenly there was a beep on the machine.

All the doctors eyes turned to it…

"I see a pulse…"

One of the doctors exclaimed and they rushed to it,

There was a second beep again signaling another pulse,

"she's alive… there's a pulse, she's alive."

That was when Nicklaus raised his head to look at them,

"she's alive!" 𝐟𝗿𝚎𝐞𝓌e𝒃𝑛𝒐ѵ𝒆𝑙.c𝚘𝓶

One of them exclaimed excitedly as they turned to him. Nicklaus looked back at Tiana on the bed and a sigh of relief left his lips.

Lowering his head, he kissed her on her forehead,

"thank you… thank you."

He said to her, kissing her again before alighting from the bed carefully.

"Sir, you need to leave now."

A doctor said and Nicklaus nodded, taking one last look at her he walked out of the room.

…

A few moments earlier.

Gwen ran into the hospital, when she was directed to the emergency ward, she ran towards it.

As she approached her steps dilated when she heard screams from inside.

Her heart raced as she pushed open the door and walked in.

Why was she praying that she would not wake up?

Although she didn't plan for this, now it has happened, if she didn't die, it would cause a lot of problems.

The accident was too ghastly, there was only a 5% chance that she would survive. Besides the driver was already dead, there was no way she was going to live.

Her feet made minimal sounds as she walked into the room, her eyes turning to the bed.

Nicklaus was hugging her and crying. She looked at the machine and saw the flatling and she knew she was dead.

A low sigh of relief left her lips and she turned and walked out, standing by the verandah.

There was nothing stopping her from having him anymore. He was all hers.

A smile formed on her lips but she cleared it immediately. She needed to act sober, at least for now.

Breathing out, she put on a sad face and turned back to the room, but just that moment she saw Nicklaus walking out.

She blinked and walked to him,

"what… how… how is she?"

Tears gathered up in her eyes as she watched him, waiting for the sad news.

His white shirt was already stained with blood. Her blood. And he had blood on his hands.

Nicklaus breathed out,

"she's alive."

Gwen stood transfixed staring at him.

"what?" she said before she could stop her herself, but Nicklaus was too weak to continue talking.

Nodding slightly, he walked past her.

Gwen gulped. Sweat breaking out on her back.

She's alive? She survived?

Her lips fell in shock.

What would happen to her when she wakes up? What If Nicklaus investigates and finds out she had a hand in this?

Gwen clutched her hair.

No… no… no this was not happening. Why couldn't she just die!!

Breathing out, Gwen turned towards a restroom. Putting on the tap, she started washing her hands. Slow at first then speedily.

Damn it! Just die already!

If Tiana lives, she was going to be in a hell of trouble.

Breathing out, she arranged her hair with her wet hands, then she walked out of the room.

…

Nicklaus stood in the balcony as he stared outside. He couldn't believe he almost lost her.

He would have been a shadow of himself if she didn't wake up. At that moment, hugging her on that bed, he wanted to join her.

He wasn't sure he would keep living if she didn't wake up.

What was life without her? Where would he start from?

Suddenly, his phone vibrated in his pocket, kicking him out of his thoughts, taking it out, he saw it was a private number, he hesitated before picking up.

"it's been a long time, Nicklaus. Did you miss me?"

Nicklaus froze when he heard that voice. Too familiar to mistake for a stranger's voice.

"Liam Wills…"

A croaking laughter sounded from the phone,

"aish… why being so formal, aren't we Brothers? Or didn't you like my gift to you?"

Nicklaus hands fisted as his fingers dug into his skin,

He shot him in the head, how did he survive?

"ah, you should be wondering now, how did he survive? I killed him, I watched him die, how is he alive? Ha-ha, it shouldn't be new to you brother, I mean, it's not the first time someone is coming back from the dead. I learned from you and oh, something else I learnt from you is that, no-one suspects the dead."

Nicklaus gritted his teeth. This was the first time he had been taken completely and utterly unawares. If he knew Liam was alive, he would have protected his woman more.

"I hope she's dead, because if she's not, I'm going to come and kill her completely."

Nicklaus breathed out,

"Before you do that, I'll make sure I have your head on a stake."

Liam burst out laughing.

"that's great, I'll love to watch you try."

Nicklaus heard a beep and his hands fell to the side, bluish veins forming on his forehead.

He hurt his woman… he dared to hurt his woman…

He would make him pay. Even if it took the world, he would make him pay.
