Chapter 125: Chapter 125

The next morning, Barbara had arrived abit late, she didn't attend the welcome party of Shirley caused she had an urgent meeting from her father's resort, that morning, she had a call to deliver some documents to the administrative office.

She grabs the documents then make her way to the administrative office, as she make her way through the company hallway, she could see that, the staffs were looking at her differently from the one, they normally give her.

She didn't give it a thought but returning back, she could hear their mocking word's

Did you not remember, that, our new COO, is same woman that knee before our CEO begging him to love her?

Huh! Is that true? She really looks like her, now I remember, she is the desperate bitch begging for love.

No wonder, she looks so familiar

Huh! What is she doing here? She really doesn't have shame, after been humiliated by our CEO, she still had the guts to reappeared.

Probably to seduce him this time, so he could be hers.

Too bad, the CEO first love is back, I heard that Ma Shirley is the childhood sweetheart of CEO, she is even betrothed to him now, so there is no way this daughter of a murderer can come into his life.

The staff seem to be ganging up on her, why are they bringing her past to her present? Fine, she might still be in love with him but that doesn't mean they are righteous while she is the sinner

Honestly, no woman will see the CEO and not throw herself at him, if I were ma Shirley, I will get married fast to him, so that, every other woman will stay away from my man.

Gosh! I hate seeing her walked into that office of the CEO, I just pray that ma Shirley should hold her man very well.

Women like these, are always up to no good, when they want something. I really don't know how the CEO could stay around this desperate woman.

I also heard that, she is the illegitimate child of sir Calvin and that her mother is a murderer, which means that, her passed was the one making her hallucinate.

Yes, her family is filled with mad people, I heard she had psychological disorder.

Barbara clenched her fist, they were ridiculing her with her actions and cursing her entire family, calling names, fine, she is aware that, these staff had their eyes on Dante but they don't have to bully her because of this innocent situation of hers. Yes, they couldn't help talk bad about her for been in same office with Dante, she is actually the first female to be inside same office with him.

Although they stop talking when she made herself visible in front of them, but that didn't stop the staff from looking at her with those ridiculed eyes, they didn't hide the fact that they hate her for coming back.

Barbara return back to the office with a teary eyes, she was hurt, hurt from her childish actions and finding out that Dante and Shirley are already engaged, yes, she knows that Shirley is Dante first love, but she never thought that, the two are back together, they must have really make it known that is the reason the staffs are talking about them now.

Yes, she was childish but she was in love with him, it might seem desperate on her part, that was the only thing, she could think of at that point in time.

Dante watch her as she storm into the office then make her way to her section with a dark expression, he was surprised, she was all flash that morning, is like she had a good dream now this. She was perfect awhile again, now she didn't throw him a glance.

Eh! Who made her upset?

Ever since she arrives the office, she had been gloomy, she seems to be in a hurry to get things done, she was sulky, she is lacking concentration, Dante noticed that, this sudden behavior is immediately she returns from the office of the administration.

Her dark expression is alarming to Dante, he keeps trying to figure out what could upsets her, she is not the quiet type, now that quietness is very alarming. Her mood suddenly change, he is not comfortable with it.

What happened to her? He asked no one in particular then stand moving to her section, he can't take it anymore.

Is there anything wrong? He asked with concerned and worry for her. She move her gaze to meet his, she get sad more, is like Dante face is a reminder of those words, she wants to bury her face in her hand and cry out her lungs, she want to cry away her sorrows.

I want to resign!

She blurt out, Dante spit out his saliva.

Sorry, what did you say?

I want to resign, not to worry, I will fixed everything before leaving.

Did anyone hurt you? You should tell me. She fake a smile.

Did you remember? I am the one who always bully people,no one could bully me, I am a troublemaker, so is nothing alarming, I am fine.

Behind those smiled Dante could see those pains in her eyes, those tears she wants to hide. Dante knew, she is not fine, Barbara is only making that up, if there is one thing, he could be sure, he knows perfectly well, is this woman in front of him, he knows too much about her, that he could tell when she is sad, happy. All he wanted was for her to trust him, to share her pain with him.

Here she is pretending that she was okay, perfectly fine.

He turned his gaze from her, then turned to leave, he is already mad at her for not trusting him.

Li Jun!

She called him making him stand, then turned his gaze back to her, he look at her.

Sorry!

He was shock to hear that, she didn't do anything to him, apologizing is something not called for.

Sorry, that I was a desperate bitch.

He was taken aback, hearing her calling herself a desperate bitch. He was about to open his mouth to say something, Barbara's words came up again.

You don't have to worry, I am leaving, it's nothing. If there is anything you will want me to do then, you should let me know, I could only stay for a week. Barbara change the topic, she really have things to say, yet too scared to hear it from Dante's mouth, that she is a desperate bitch or probably he is back with Shirley for real.

It's better to save her remaining pride then to hearing those mocking comment an evil eyes staring at her.

None for now, if there is anything, I will let you know.

She fake yet another smiled, Dante look at her then knitted his eyebrows, watching that fake smile on her face.

Why wouldn't she tell me what is wrong with her right now? He murmured as he make his way back to his section, in a few minutes he stand, Shirley smiled, she is aware of the out of events. Dante make his way to the administrative office.
