Dante drove Barbara back to his condominium, immediately he arrived in the city, the first person he wanted to see was Barbara, getting to Kathleen's, he was told that Barbara was not back, he recalled that Barbara told him, she was meeting with Gordon, he thought of calling her or driving to pick her but then again, she might not like it, so waiting for her was the only option he could think of."Thanks, I will change then sleep, you should sleep too, it's late.""I will have to place a call to Jayden.""Oh! Have you eaten?""Yes, we talk in the morning then." Dante nodded at her, then took his call."Jayden, can't you stop calling for once?""I was worried, you left as soon as we arrived, where are you?""At the condominium, I am spending the night here.""Fine, I am on my way.""No!" He yelled."Why?""Sorry, she is here, I will be spending the night with her.""What? What did you tell her to make her agree to do that?""Don't be silly, I am not sleeping with her, and get off my pho
He laughed inwardly at her childish behavior and continued walking behind her."Careful, you...""Ah!" She cried in pain, and Dante rushed to her."Hey, why are you in a hurry?" He held her hand."I am fine." She pushed his hand slightly from her hand, she tried to stand then noticed that her ankle ached as soon as her weight rested on her leg, she frowned, holding her ankle."What is it?""I must have sprained my ankle." Dante looked at Barbara who was holding her ankle in pain, she could see his concern, about how she was going to go home with him."I could wait for you here, maybe, you could go home and bring your car here to take me home."Dante looks at her, he runs his hand on his nape."Let me carry you instead." Barbara looks at him"How are you going to carry me with those bags?""Piggyback ride."She looked at him, with her puppy eyes, Dante nodded and then bent for her to climb on him, her eyes sparked, and her lips curved into a nice smile as she quickly latched on Dante's
Barbara is dying to go back to the kitchen to see what Dante is up to, she noticed that Jayden must have left but Dante didn't come to check on her and he might scold her again if she tried to check on him.After staying for another thirty minutes, her patient had run out, she tried to stand then the door opened, revealing Dante with the tray of food."You are very stubborn.""I was..." She pins her lips together, Dante drops the food on the bed"I didn't want you to stress, so I thought of bringing your meal here, let's eat." Barbara moved to where the meal was, she watched Dante as he served her the meal."Here, have this." He stretches the spoon to her, she looks at him and then grabs it."Is that how you treat all your women?" Dante looks at her."This is my first time doing such kind of thing, I am a very busy man, flirting is not my thing, and I don't have the luxury of doing things with the opposite sex. You should not have ideas in your head about me and those numerous females
"Wait here, I will be back." He grabbed his phone and went out, Barbara watched his back as he moved into the living room, her brain racing, with the whole event that had just taken place, she kept thinking of how stupid she had become, letting him flirt with her without stopping him."Is this my imagination or this is real?" She thought in her head then pinched herself. "You should stop now Barbara, I don't think he is in love with you."Dante was sweating when he returned, she looked at him."Are you alright?""Yes, I have a call from my mom, she is a bit under the weather, so my attention is needed, will you come with me?"Barbara looks at him, she is dying to say yes, yet she is scared of making Dante realize her true feelings for him. She needed to be patient and let Dante tell her if he felt anything for her. A man is supposed to express his feelings for a woman, not the other way around."Why are you thinking about it, I thought you said you wanted to be my friend, let's be frie
"Hiking?""Yes, Dad, it's been a while, I know he is very busy and he is going to feel bad if I don't go with him." Calvin pinned his lips together, and he stared at her, his face was without expression, Barbara stared at him trying to read her father's thoughts, after giving him many thoughts."Fine, you should go with him but you will have to go with security.""Father! Who goes hiking with security?""That is it and I am not turning back on my words.""Father, Jeff can protect me.""Barbara!" Calvin called in frustration."Dad, am I in some danger?" She was forced to ask, Calvin looked at her and faked a smile."Of course, not, you know I am always protective of you, is called father Instinct.""Noted Dad, I go upstairs now, you should go to your wife, she might be missing you," Barbara said as she placed a peck on the cheek of Calvin, as she made her way upstairs, Hazel watched the father and daughter, Calvin grabbed his phone and make his way to his study, and he read that message
Meanwhile, Jeffrey has just driven back to his villa, and he is in a rage, he saw Dante drop Barbara at the villa, and he was waiting eagerly for her at Calvin's villa, hoping that she would arrive alone but he got shocked at his life, Barbara was the one that takes the initiative to kiss Dante, that act of hers, only means she is madly in love with Dante, he is not going to let that happen."I want all his messages checked""Trace all his call logs connecting to Barbara, I want the report of how he first met her, I need it right now, you should know money is not the issue, but you should make sure to cover all traces."He barked and then ended the call, he paced in his room from one end to the other. He is aware that things had gone out of control when his assistant told him that, Barbara had gone back to Dante's condominium, and that they had gone shopping that morning, she ended up on his back in broad daylight and a few hours back, he just saw his Barbara, kissing that Dante of a d
The next morning, Barbara was up so early, that she informed Calvin, that she was going to Jeffrey, which meant she would have breakfast with Jeffrey, he did not argue with her, since he knew Jeff could take care of her.The three were having breakfast without Barbara, Hazel looked at Barbara's space."Where is Barbara? I thought she arrived last night." Hazel asked, causing Calvin to raise his head and stare at her. "Did you know...""Hazel stop it, you should stop acting like you love my daughter, I will let this pass but the next time, you hurt my daughter, you will not like me."Hazel looked at him all shocked, her heart racing, did Barbara run her out to Calvin?"You should stop thinking that, Barbara said things to me, you don't expect me to leave my princess unguarded and you Claudia...""Father, I am...""You are the least of my worries now, for now, you will have to pack your stuff, as soon as Barbara returns, we are leaving.""Leaving?" Claudia asked."Yes, we have to leave,

Barbara whispers "It's all a bad idea to search for any information from this naughty place.""Relax Barbara, I am sure, we will find it soon.""Wait let me use my phone to search for the map." As soon as she bring out her, phone, so many missed call from Dante, the man is driving at the same time calling her nonstop, her safety is very important to him, and he keeps increasing his speed, he needs to get there on time. "Oh, Li Jun, he has been calling me, wait let me call him back."Jeffrey's face goes sour, he tries to control himself, the mere mention of Dante's name makes him boil in rage."Hello!""Where are you?""I'm at..." A boy grabs her phone. "Hey, my phone," Barbara yelled, running after the boy causing Jeffrey to run after her"Hello! Babs!" Dante calls, and the line suddenly dies off. "Shit!" He cursed as he increased his speed."Barbara stop chasing him," Jeffrey screamed behind her, no, the stubborn Barbara must get her phone back, she passed through another
