Chapter 8 Nightmare

As it was getting late, after talking to her uncle and making him heard toward his room.

Tiana came back to her room and cleaned herself after changing her clothes. She laid down on the bed and soon fell into a deep slumber.

She then dreamed.

In her dreams, she had returned to that day three years ago when Rose showed her huge belly to her and smiled gleefully as she announced.

"Tiana, I'm pregnant with his child."

Tiana merely slapped her in the face, but that led to Rose's subsequent miscarriage.

She felt afraid and angry when she saw the blood that was splattered all over the ground.

'Smack!' Crisp sound of a slap could be heard, along with the vicious cursing by Marget, "B*tch, you're a fruitless tree and yet you simply can't allow others to do what you've failed to achieve, could you?"

"This is the divorce agreement. Please look through and sign your name on it," the lawyer said indifferently.

"Mr. Taylor, don't have the time to spare. Stop wasting time, Hurry and sign it. It's better for all of us." Lawyer continued his words.

Tiana had loved and fully devoted herself to Austin for five years. She had thought that she could entrust herself to him for the rest of her life.

A searing pain threatened to rip Tiana's heart apart, and her entire body was drenched with cold sweat.

She then quivered and woke up with a start.

She had been haunted by these terrible dreams for the past three years.

Tiana rubbed her head and sat up before she grabbed her cellphone from the bedside table and took one glance, It was 4 a.m.

After Tiana had roused from her nightmare, couldn't seem to fall asleep anymore.

As her body was wet with sweat, she slipped out of bed and took a shower before she changed into a fresh set of clothes and went to the kitchen to make breakfast.

Although Josh looked like a playboy who only knew how to fool around, he could be trusted to handle things well.

When they first arrived in Fetillo, he was exceptionally eager to get things done and complete all his tasks swiftly.

He was not a man who liked to drag things on and, as his assistant, Tiana didn't dare to slack off at all.

Tiana quickly finished her breakfast and hurried downstairs with her bag.

She lived in an old-style house that was tucked away in the alley.

As the neighbourhood was as old as time itself, several street lamps were already out of order.

Tiana exited from the alley based on her memory and, at one glance, spotted Bus 28 heading in her direction.

She immediately bolted towards the bus and overlooked a black luxury car that was parked beside the alley.

Austin watched as Tiana rushed onto the bus before he rolled down his car window.

He held onto a cigarette butt and stared in the direction where she had disappeared off to with a gloomy look in his eyes.

It was hard for Austin to distinguish his emotions when he saw Tiana, who had been missing for three years, and flashed.

"Tiana, it's good that you're back," he thought and left from there.

Tiana rushed into the company, and because she was early today, there was nobody. She then tidied up the office and made a cup of tea for Josh before she sat down in her seat and turned on her computer.

While she was looking through Josh's schedule for the day, heard the sound of footfall at the entrance. Josh and his Executive Assistant, David, had come.

Josh was rather surprised to see Tiana in the office at such an early hour, and his lips curled up into a mischievous grin as he said, "Tiana, are you hoping that I'll give you more bonus for coming in early? Fat hope! I would rather give my money to a beautiful woman than to an ugly monster like you. It'd be a waste of my resources."

When Tiana joined the company, she already knew that Josh was a lustful man. Although Ethan introduced her, she was still afraid that she might be harassed by Josh. Thus, to prevent this from happening, she had always dressed in conservative, old-fashioned attire whenever she was around Josh and would not apply any makeup. She even got herself a pair of old-fashioned black-rimmed glasses once she learned that Josh hated women who wore glasses.

Thus, Josh had never looked Tiana in the eye throughout the three months that she had worked with him. He was also harsh with his words and never respected her.

Josh had already insulted her looks and intelligence so many times that Tiana had become immune and had learnt to ignore his sarcasm.

David, on the other hand, couldn't bear to watch him insult Tiana any further and quickly began to mediate the situation.

"Mr. Reed, I heard that Austin will soon be engaged. What should we get him for his engagement gift?"

Tiana was momentarily stunned when she heard this and looked up at David.
