Chapter 132: Chapter 132
The next morning, Dante was surprised to know that Barbara had already quit her job the very next day even when she promised to stay for a week.
What happened? He asked Sally, he wasn't expecting it to happen so fast and especially now that she might be too stupid looking for a worthless husband.
She said she is going to be very busy in the next 48hours, so she decided to quit.
Busy doing what? He yelled in frustration, Sally look at him. Sorry, go get me Shirley.
I am sorry bro, she had to accompany her father to the hospital, she is not available for now, but she said she will be coming later In the day.
Annoying people! Dante echoed, he had been trying to reach Barbara but the number isn't going through, he hit the phone on the table in frustration, if it's just her resigning, it would had been better, not now that she is looking for husband, he might drop dead if someone else get his woman, he place a call to Kathleen.
Hey Kathleen, I have been trying to reach Barbara but her number isn't going through and no one is taking Gordon's call.
Oh right! Sorry, Barbara had change her number, her phone got damage due to the bomb explosion at the resort and Gordon, is not taking your call due to some emergency, please don't asked me the emergency,cause I too really don't know, I think Barbara is way too busy to come to the office, she really needs to get married.
What thy fuck is wrong with her? Dante couldn't hold himself anytime, he heard anyone mentioned Barbara trying to get herself a husband.
Don't worry too much about her, everything will be find, I am sure, she will get a very handsome husband soon, since James is going to introduce her to his SS friends.
Damn that stupid James. Kathleen wasn't able to hold herself anymore, she end the call then burst in laugher, she could imagine the look on Dante's face when he mentioned that Barbara is going to get a handsome husband soon .
Kathleen, you are very naughty. Why were you playing with my brother's emotions?
I am not, Jayden, I know Barbara will never option for him, at least let him make the first move. Jayden pinned his lips together, it sounds good, what if Dante is too slow.
****
Back at the office, Dante riffled his hair in frustration, those hairs on his head must be angry with him now, he keep messing with them.
Big bro...
Sally, leave me alone.
Why? If you getting frustrated because of Barbara's action then you should stop this madness.
How am going to stop it, when I don't even know where she is? Can't she see she is hurting me, which sane girl, search for husband.
Every sane girl will do that for her father's safety.
Really now? You taking side with her?
I am not, she is only doing what is best for her dad, come to think of it, the man had love her for years, I am sure, if she can't find any man, she will have to move with prince William.
Prince William?
Yes, that is the first choice of her father, he only wants someone that could protect his daughter.
I could protect her. He blurted out, Sally look at him, she was about to say something when the door open, it's Barbara, Dante and Sally were startled.
Barbara! What...
Not now Sally, Li Jun, Come with me. She pulled him from the chair, Dante look at her confused
Come on, Sally get off the way.
What is it? What is going on? Where are we going? Dante asked confused, Barbara answered with something else.
I will kill you, if we don't get there on time, you seem to be my bad luck. Everyone seem to reject her as soon as they realize that she is connected to Dante, she dragged him through the hallway, Dante was like her child.
Get into the car. She commanded him, then look at her wristwatch, the drive will take much time, she doesn't want the registrar office to get closed, it's already noon and after today, the 48hours had elapsed, she really wants the surgery to take place really fast.
Where are we going? Dante asked, he had lost count on the number of times, he had asked Barbara that, he can't believe that the young lady is ignoring him. Are you planning on kidnapping me? Barbara didn't reply him, she gives giving instructions to James.
James, you should drive with the highest speed, we need to get to the registrar office before it close, if you still love your life, you will get there before time.
Dante jaw drop, did he got it right? Registrar office, is she planning on getting married to him, his heart leap for joy, he wanted to grabbed her and kiss her, he decided to compose himself then act like he doesn't understand anything.
Barbara turned her gaze back to him, he is on his cold look now, at first Barbara is scared that he might turned him now, that is the reason she didn't tell him, she sighed inwardly then part her lips. Ahem! She cleared her throat. I need a favor from you, I really don't know who else to asked this favor from, the truth is, I wouldn't had bothered you but Gordon can't grant me the favor. You are the only one, I could trust right now?
Dante roll his eyes in frustration, she wouldn't had come to him, if Gordon, Riley and Jeffrey were available, he felt bad that he was the last option then his inner self asked him to reject her again.
Just tell her to go away, you are not going to help her?
No way! He blurted out, trying to push that thought away.
You are not going to help me? He shakes his head, Barbara face go sad. You really are a devil, are you not.
What?
Get off my car. She yelled, James look at her through the review mirror, Dante gasped for air.
What is wrong with you? I didn't say, I am not going to help you and I don't even know the favor. He try to compose himself, this woman is going to be the end of him.
Then why did you say, no way? He shakes his head again. What is wrong with this loony?
Babs; shut up, where are we going? Are we going to the registrar office?
Barbara nodded, then grab his hand. Let's get married, this minute.
