He makes her sit on top of his bed and she is conscious of the fact they have to make out after the magic is done. It’s awkward to speak of the person she needs closure with then will have herself to make out with the other man who is waiting for her.
Barrett, why did you ever have a very complicated relationship with men?
Her thoughts kept bothering her and of course, Denzell noticed everything, he held her hand and kissed the top of it. It has always been so sweet of him to make such gestures, it leaves Barrett speechless as to how he treats her delicately.
“The magic is like entering into his dream, you will be talking with his subconscious, so whatever is his inner thoughts, y

This is the same scenario when they are in the main office, but since Denzell has ordered, he wants to stay near Barrett so they have to send all the documents at the mansion. “I can’t believe a day like this that you would be working at home.” Ever since they have established the IIC, Denzell has been lazy at home and would only work in the office once Gerard nagged him enough. “I have been doing my work diligently.” He is brazenly telling it to his face, that is when Gerard starts to enumerate his previous actions for the past generations.

It still vividly plays in her memory, the evil men who captured and killed her mother and her uncle. Barrett has stayed hidden under the sink and doesn’t even let a single gasp of her to be heard. When one of the men stopped right in front of the area she had been hiding her whole body turned to stone. Anytime she can be found and killed. The moment the basin hiding her was removed her eyes widened and she put her hand on her mouth. The man looked under the sink, he was just right in front of her, the tears fell down on her cheeks. Surprisingly the man looked as if straight into the space, then it spoke to the other men that there was nothing. Her heart race calms down a little, didn’t he see her? Isn’t she what they’ve been looking for? At that time Barrett tried to escape at the back door, unluckily getting straight into the corpse of her mother and the so-called uncle she ran past them.

Barrett: Heart of Promise 60 A consideration
The night after her meeting with Faera, she stays at her room alone. Remembering the tale her mother repeated speaks of her, the myths of the dragon and the werewolves. One would think that it was just a story, however her being born is already one fact that the truth behind those myths are actually reality. She held the memento her mother has gifted her, it was passed down to every generation, it was a magic stone that has kept their descendants safe and is proof of the blessing that the fairy goddess has gifted her ancestor. She got so worried over the things recently that night Barrett skipped dinner due to an upset stomach.

“I really didn’t know!” Damien kept kneeling down and asking for forgiveness at Barrett, he could still feel the chills when Denzell looked at him. Even when he entered his office, as if it was passing through the walls. “It’s fine I’ve never told you guys before as well.” Barrett has to make the most realistic story that both she and Denzell have known each other for a long time and that they’ve just recently met when she applied here at IIC. Their meeting at the Pisces and Gem café is what she told as their first meeting and that she didn’t know that he would end up becoming his boss. “Cliché isn’t it, we only just met a few months ago and besides, we didn’t want to tell the employees as well.” Worried that there will be special treatment and favoritism, she worried about working back at IIC.
