Sir Harold had called earlier that he would be visiting his kids, since he does not have his little playthings, he wants to spend time with his kids.Now everyone is seated in the dining, Dante's space is the only one available."Where is that brat of a boy? Didn't you tell him, I am joining the dinner today?""I did inform him early but I don't know the reason he is not back." Jayden defends himself, Harold moves his gaze to Sally and Shirley, who work in the same office as him."Oh! I left the office early to meet up with my dad's appointment, so I didn't return to the office." Now it's left for Sally to also defend herself since all eyes are on her now."Oh! The only thing I know is that Barbara stopped by the office and then dragged him before noon and he didn't return to the office nor give details about his whereabouts.""What?" Harold yelled."Not too worried, I will give him a call." Jayden grabbed his phone and then placed a call to Dante, he didn't take Jayden's call."He is
Barbara didn't wake up through the night, she only woke up from her deep slumber the next morning, she was surprised to see it was morning when she checked the time."Ah! It's morning already." Barbara jumped from the bed, she couldn't believe she slept through the night. She yawned and then tried to stand up from the bed only to see Dante on a towel walking into her room"Holy shit! What am I doing here and why are you on the towel?"'Stop asking silly questions, you should take your bath, I figure, you must be very tired, so I decided to let you sleep, you might need a good bath, I made a hot bath for you, all you need do is go into the tub, I will be off to the kitchen, I will fix what we eat.""I can do that myself, don't fix it for me and why didn't you use the other room?" Dante turned and looked at her, as she held her head like she was having a headache."Stop acting like you don't need anyone when you need everyone and for the other question, I love this bed and I remember you

Barbara asked as she pulled the door, Dante was behind her, and Hazel's eyes moved to Dante after Barbara greeted everyone and Dante too.Grandpa Jarius is staring at them, Barbara knows the man wants an
Harold decided to have lunch with Barbara before leaving, Jayden made a nice reservation for them, the hotel was a popular one, who is well known for having the best chef who normally cooks for their guest anything they want right in front of them.While sitting at the table, Harold couldn't help but steal glances at her, earlier he wasn't really happy that he might get into the bad book of his long-time friend because of this naughty son of his, seeing the face of Shirley this morning, who is acting like she is fine while deep down she is dying slowly, he is a father and he understands when one of his children is not happy, to the world, he is a complete womanizer but to his kids, he is a perfect dad, he might have failed in marriage but not as a parent. Barbara's face melts his heart, the girl is innocent and he loves Barbara's family as well, although he finds something awkward about that woman, he is going to discuss that later with his son."Here, you should try the meal." He plac
Finally, at the hour of the surgery, Mr. Calvin arrives, he is been wheeled into the theatre, he is scared but seeing his entire family there gives him security and peace, nothing makes him happy more, is the fact that Dante is there every important person in his daughter's lifetime to support her.The family moved to the waiting area, Claudia and Derrick had arrived earlier too, and Derrick was there to support Claudia, he wasn't expecting Dante to be there, he thought Dante was out of her life, when did he return to Barbara's life? What relationship do the two have now? So many questions in his head, for now, he had to pretend that he was there for Claudia.Grandpa Jarius is the only one not available, the old man's heart will not take it, so the doctor advises that he should busy himself with other things while the surgery goes on.Jeffrey gets a cup of coffee for Barbara and Kathleen. "Here, you should drink this, as we wait for the surgery." Barbara gives him a weak smile, althoug
Kathleen is sitting at the vacant chair after Barbara and Jeffrey decide to take a walk, Jayden makes his way to her and takes the space beside her. "Here, you should have this.""Thanks but I am not tasty.""Kathleen!""Do you want to force it on me? I told you, I don't want to, don't you get it, I don't want anything from you.""Can we not do that here?" Jayden is getting frustrated with Kathleen's actions."Of course, so avoid me like the plague." She stood to leave, Jayden held her hand, and she dragged it from him. "I said stay away from me." Her voice attracted the nurses, Dante looked at Jayden, Barbara and Jeffrey were only returning when they saw the act, Kathleen walked passed, Barbara."What is wrong with her?" Jeffrey asked Barbara, and she shrugged."Don't worry, I will go after her." Barbara stops Jayden who is about to go to Kathleen. He nodded, and Dante signaled to him that they should talk outside."What is going on?" Those were his first words as soon as they got out
Barbara is a bit relieved seeing her father back on his bed, although still sleeping, probably unconscious as a result of anesthesia. Since the doctor said he would open his eyes anytime, all of them were waiting anxiously for him.She pressed soft kisses on her father's cheeks, she was the only one who dared to go closer to him. You should wake up fast father, I missed your teasing."Really?" Calvin's voice was soft."Father!" She called, she was about to hug him when the doctor cleared his throat to indicate that she couldn't do that now. He checked for all his vital signs."I am fine." The impatient Calvin said, Barbara unconsciously jumped on Dante, he was the one closest to her, and his eyes bulged open, he wanted to circle his hand around her but she had already pulled from him."Thank goodness!" She hugged Kathleen and then Jeffrey, who was beside Kathleen, as usual, Jeffrey is always the selfish one who always wants to keep Barbara completely to himself, he doesn't free her han
It didn't take long before Dante returned with the dishes he made, he was in a hurry thinking that Barbara must be starving, he was about to enter the building, while Kathleen was going out."Hey, you going home?" Kathleen nodded to him, ready to pass him, he held her. "Are you mad at me for getting married to your friend?""Uh!" She was shocked, his eyes didn't leave her, where did the man get the notion, he should know, she was his biggest fan, and if there was anyone she had voted for when it came to Barbara's husband it was Dante. "Come on, you should know I am your biggest fan, congrats!" She added with a smile."Thanks, where is she?""She is at the cafe on the second floor.""Thanks!" Dante pushed the side of his hair backward. "Do I look more attractive than Jeffrey?" She opened her mouth to say something, but Dante already turned to leave, and then she realized that Barbara was with Jeffrey, she grabbed her phone to call Barbara, she needed to warn her, Jeffrey could be so car
Dante couldn't believe how fast he could be, getting the book, and arriving at the restaurant in a short time then drove madly to the villa, after the dish had been prepared, he pulled the door of his villa, Barbara ran into his hand."Hey love, how could you treat me like this, do you want to kill me? You know I can't stay a day without you." Barbara grimaces at him as he keeps complaining.She grabbed his hand out around her waist, then tiptoed and circled her hand on his neck then gave him a passionate kiss.Dante seems lost but he still moves with the pace, Barbara smiled, she loves this husband of hers, he doesn't argue too much, he only follows what she wants, he kissed her from the doorstep while carrying her to their room through the stairs, he was in hurry to move to the next level when his eyes caught the beautiful decorations and a card with the arrow sign was paste in the wall."What is this?" He asked, Barbara smiled and spoke."Follow the instructions." She said while she

Barbara couldn't help but smile as she watched their first wedding photos, she remembers their past as she scanned through the album.She recall their first encounter, how she had punched the man's face and then rented him to save her ass from her overbearing sister. Even when she had begged him publicly to love her and the last when she dragged him to marry herStill in her dream world when a strong hand pulled her into a hug from behind against his body. She was so preoccupied that she didn't notice when Dante joined her in the room, he pulled her to the bed and sat beside her."Hey love, why are you smiling? Don't tell me, you are falling hopelessly in love with this handsome man again." As days go by, Dante's shamelessness knows no limit, he could tease her openly.He pecks her cheeks and then rests on her shoulder with his chin, she pushes him slightly, he is acting too shameless for her liken."You will get spank."

For nine long months, they had been expecting the little pretty thing who looked so much like his lovely wife, it's a girl, Barbara called her Hazel, for some reason, she felt that Hazel was a good mother to her, if she wasn't hard on her, she wouldn't have turned out to be this independent woman, having her own family and a CEO of a big establishment."Love, we are going on vacation on the island.""Really?" Barbara asked Dante to look at her, she was overly excited, a year after Barbara had their baby, Hazel, they had gone on vacation, where Dante had asked her to marry him, she was supposed to meet him at the restaurant but he called that he is sick and she had to rush to him,"Hey, ma!
