Chapter 16: Chapter 16

Stop asking questions, that you already know the answer to.

So you kissed her?

Jayden, don't you think your dad need you back?

Fine, I go on now.

Will you stay right there? There is no way I am seeing that Scarlett of a girl alone.

Then I should give you my conditions as well. Dante titter at Jayden silly jokes, his phone ring, Jayden hit him. Get your phone.

Oh! This girl again. He pick again, yet again without a word.

Are you there?

Speak, I can hear you.

Why do I get this Feelings, you love to annoy me?

I won't know.

Anyways, I have signed the stupid contract of yours and...

Fine, you should call when you need me, a day to the time.

Bye

No impromptu, bye.

Jerk. Dante didn't reply that part of her, he press the end button.

Annoying girl.

Dante! Dante! Dante.

You jerk, why are you calling me?

Don't give your name to me. Dante throw the pillow at him. Fine, so you are...

Yes, do you have a problem with that?

Come on, you and I know you don't have that luxury of time, you can't...

It's just a month.

What if she wants more?

That girl, will never want more, so don't worry about that.

What about you?

I don't understand.

You should know getting too close to a girl, can make you fall in love with her. Dante titter at Jayden"s word and tap his shoulder.

Barbara is not my type, she is like a man although she is beautiful, you needed to see the way, she hit a man that try to assault her, she could defend herself well, she is brave and strong

Saying that part, he smiled, yet again, Jayden noticed but he just doesn't want to say another word, he is aware of the kind of person Dante is, he like girls who are self-reliance; bold; stubborn and not dancing to the tone of any man. Barbara fit into this category, she is stubborn or maybe, she is not intimated by Dante because she doesn't know his real identity.

****

It's lunch time already, the Calvin's family couldn't have breakfast together that Sunday morning because of tiredness from the party but they are definitely not going to missed lunch.

Barbara had to take her bath as soon as she heard the announcement of lunch ready, she hurry out, everyone is already at the dinning, their eyes focus on her.

I'm sorry for coming late. Grandpa Jarius beckoned on her, she bow and take her sit. She is always the last to appear for any of their meal, so they are used to it.

In few seconds, the only sound they could hear is the sound of the cutleries, after few minutes, grandpa Jarius decided to break the ice.

Barbara! He called making her raised her head to stare at him. How was your chitchat with prince William?

It was fine.

Do you think he is a potential husband? Barbara spit the food from her mouth in shock. Are you alright?

Yes, sorry, I was just taken off guard.

Oh sorry dear, here have some water. Grandpa Jarius pushed the glass to her, he watch her sip on the water, Calvin understand that Barbara doesn't like prince William. Go on dear.

Father, you should know Barbara has a boyfriend, so she can't possibly go out with prince William.

Come on Calvin, I never said she should stop seeing her boyfriend, I only asked if the young man is a potential husband.

But...

Calvin! Grandpa Jarius called him, making him keep mute, the old man, could get angry if he keeps Interrupting the conversation. Barbara!

Yes Grandpa.

When I am going to meet your boyfriend? Dinner with the family tomorrow will be perfect since I will be leaving by weekend.

But grandpa...

Come on Barbara, let us see the man that you keep painting like heaven, so we know if he is right for you not some wretch.

It's now time for Claudia to torment her, so she could see if this boyfriend of hers, is worthy it. Barbara look at Claudia.

You should just tell us that, you don't have, you are just...

Fine dinner. Claudia smirked, Calvin look at Claudia.

You should tell Derrick to be here at the dinner as well because I also want to see him.

Yes dad, I will tell him and I am sure, he will be honored to have a dinner with the Calvin's.

Fine then, Hazel will let the chef know that, we are expecting two extra people, so the meal should increase.

As you wish my love. That was the first time, Hazel said a word. The rest of the meal goes back to silent.

****

At exactly 4pm, Scarlett was already at Dante's villa, since the steward had already been informed that, a lady by name Scarlett is coming, as soon as she arrives, she was usher in then he goes in to announce the arrival of her to Dante.

Master, ma Scarlett is here.

Alright, just tell her, I will join her in few minutes.

As the master pleases! She bow and then disappeared, Dante look at Jayden.

Get your ass up, let's meet her.

I thought...

Stop thinking let's go. Dante dart ahead of him, making him walk lazily behind him, Scarlett smile wide as her eyes fall on the man in front of him, she wasn't expecting this handsome man, although her father had told her that Dante is handsome but she never expected it to be this perfect.

Hi! I am Dante. He introduced himself, stretching his hand to her.

Hi! I am Scarlett Oscar. She takes his hand while standing up.

You can sit!

Oh thanks! She grabbed a sit, Dante beckoned on the butler that was standing beside her to give her a drink, he bow then left, Dante turned only to see that Jayden is not beside him, he had thought that, Jayden was behind him, he shakes his head and dragged his seat.

You welcome! She nodded to him while sipping on the wine, then raised her head to get a glance of him.

My dad never did tell me that you are a demigod. Dante look at her. Yes, I wasn't thinking I was going to meet an alien. Dante titter. Of cause, you are a demigod.

What where you expecting? A monster.

Nope but definitely not an alien like you. Dante raised his hand then place at the back of his head making his broad shoulders visible to Scarlett, she smiled sheepishly, she is practically drooling on him, Dante just let her. Ahem! He cleared his throat making her come back to earth, in a second she is daydreaming about her in Dante's hand.

Oh! She sip on her wine. The thing is, I am new here and my dad said I could be the company's representative.

Yes, his company is having an advertising contract with Real achiever's corporation, so he said he is sending the company representative but he never did say that his daughter is the one representing him.

The thing is, I was the one in charge of advertising with the company other branch, when the former got fired, I had to substitute for it till they find a replacement.

Okay, it's about our new perfume, you should know that the company is also holding his 40th anniversary.

I know that, I was supposed to get all the details from you, how do you want it to be like, the time and place...

Dante and Scarlett keep talking about business, so the conversation wasn't boring, Dante could go on and on when it comes to business but having a normal conversation with a girl bored him.

Enough of business, while not tell me about yourself. She pulled her wine glass and take a space beside Dante, she is now going to do the real thing, she was send for, catching Dante under her grip.

What will you like to know about me? Few hours into the conversation, Jayden had join them, making them three in the living room.

Everything, if we are doing business, we should be acquaintance.

You right but I don't think there is anything interesting about me, while not we start from you.

Maybe we should discuss that, while having dinner. Jayden said, he is tired of the conversation, it has lasted more than two hours and it's dinner time, he need to eat.

Sure! Miss Scarlett let's proceed to the dinning
