Chapter 47: Chapter 47

The next morning, Dante left without breakfast, it's weekend already, he doesn't go to office on a weekend but then he left.

Barbara was having her bath when he arrives, so he had to wait at the living room.

Sitting on the couch, his hand met a card, a complimentary card, he didn't drop that there, maybe it's for Barbara, he pick and dump on the table but his eyes caught the name making him rise from the couch

Gordon Sean! He read out loud, trying to search his brain where he had that name before, the picture become clear but then while did Barbara have his contract.

You here! Barbara asked making him startled.

Hey don't creep on me like that.

Oh please, you the one here without informing me and you dare say I am creeping on you. She fall on the couch, Dante look at her, this girl guts drive him nut.

Are you forgetting something? This is mine? Barbara roll her eyes at him. I saw that.

I know, what are you doing here?

Hungry! Dante is blunt.

Does this place look like a restaurant? Dante could never get the right words to call this woman in front of him. A little please, will not kill you. She stand from the couch.

Please! He said almost like a whisper after contemplating of doing that or just go back to the villa.

More like a good boy! Barbara comment. Go on sit, I made a nice sandwich, I don't know if you like it with coffee or...

Tea with lot of fresh milk

You even have choice. Dante smirked at her words. Go on and eat. Barbara urge him, she too haven't eaten, she grab a cup for herself as well.

I thought you...

Was I suppose to watch you eat without filling my drum? Dante haven't replied her phone ring, she look at the call then Dante, that look on her face, could tell who the caller is, she stand from him.

Excuse me! I will take my call. Dante wave his hand for her to leave, right now, he is getting irritated with Jeffrey that he suspect is the caller.

It didn't take much time before she returns to the dinning, she had dismissed him, saying she want to take her bath.

Is this for you? Dante pushed the card to her, as soon as she sit in front of her.

Yes! She said it casually, Dante is not satisfied with the answer he get from Barbara. Fine, the thing is, he was the one who bash my car, he gave me, his card to call after fixing it.

Does he have to fixed? You can do it yourself.

He insist, so I let him, since he have money to spend when the insurance company could have taken care of it. Dante look at her. I send the number to Ethan to help me reach him, so he check if my car is ready.

Why didn't you call him? Dante need details.

I don't have that luxury, Ethan can fixed it. She try to put away the dish, Dante walked behind her. Hey, stop following me.

I am not following you.

Now, you want to tell lie again.

Fine, I want to help you do the dishes. Barbara is Surprised. Don't worry, I do that, no one will scold you, if you let me do that.

Barbara nodded at him, she watch him as he do the dishes, he is doing it perfectly.

Do you cook? Barbara asked out of the blue, she is resting her head on her right arm to support her chin, making her bent a little towards the sink.

Dante move his gaze to answer her, but his eyes fall unconsciously on her cleavage, his jaw drop but then averted his gaze as fast as he could and focus on the dishes.

You haven't answer me. Barbara is determined to know.

Maybe, you will taste then find out, if I could or the other way round. Dante wipe his hand with the napkin, trying as much as possible not to come in contact with Barbara, he is losing his self-control, with each minutes with her.

Will you cook for me? She asked, he returns her questions with a cold look. Are we still going to the party? She asked another since Dante is not ready to answer the former.

Yes but Jayden, said he had something to do. You will need a dinner gown for the party.

No need, I could pick from one of those simple gown from the once you pick.

You don't want to feel awkward at the party? Don't worry, I will get you a good dress but I don't think you need make up, you already have this perfect skin, with a nice scent, especially with your hair free. Dante had turned it into admiring her.

Does it mean, I am attractive? Naughty Barbara, asked, his lips drop but didn't say anything.

You should rest, I will come pick you later. Dante need to escape from this, he can't understand himself, this past days, he is getting irritated with any man around her, jealous of her closeness with Jeffrey and complementing Barbara openly is the height of all his madness.

Barbara walked reluctantly back to the couch, Dante had never compliment her like this, or maybe, she shouldn't take it as a compliment, Dante is mysterious, you can't tell what is heart is saying.

Is it love or mere attraction that a man will have for a woman when he see some sensitive part of her body.

Dante move to the cupboard of his room, he closed his eyes but the picture of Barbara keep playing on his head, that lips of her, that is always moisturizer and attractive to kiss is what is in his mind eyes.

Dante stop it, you don't love her, she is your culprit and she is definitely going to get punished, don't put your heart into that madness call love, you can't love and it's not her, not her, whatever you feel for her is mere attraction you get for women but this woman effect is strong.

He sighed at the last part of his words, admitting that Barbara effect is stronger than any other woman in his life.
