Chapter 52: Chapter 52

Are you sure you don't want your dress anymore? Barbara asked, he turned his gaze to her and held her wrist. Why do I get this feeling you always want to shoo me away?

Not at all. She fake a smile, Gordon smile back at her.

You should keep it, I am the one giving it to you, it's my way of apologizing for your damage. Do you think, I can have a dance with you? The music is lovely and it happened to be my best.

Gordon look nice and friendly, he is another vision of Dante who is insolent and naughty. Someone that one could be comfortable with.

The thing is, I came with my boyfriend, I don't think he will like it, it might turn out to be a bad idea.

"I bet you forget to add possessive... And the boyfriend, you talking about could probably be the one rushing towards us" he said it casually, Barbara move her eyes with Gordon gaze, only to see Dante gloomy face, producing anger and frustration.

Dante get to them and the first thing could do is pulled Barbara hand from his and fixed his eyes on Gordon, probably trying to intimate him.

No way, Gordon is not the type to be intimated, his worse enemy is right in front of him, struggling with same woman that caught his fancy as well.

Barbara move her gaze to Dante, she feels he explained, she should give him one. Where have you been? I was worried sick about you. Dante asked before she give him an explanation, Gordon laughed dryly, Barbara and Dante face move to him.

Dancing, is your own version of searching and worried for her? Don't you think you been an hypocrite?

Dante clenched his fist, hearing those words, this man is tempting him and he is going to burn him with his rage, if he is not very careful with the words he used in front of him.

Barbara didn't take notice of him dancing with that Scarlett of a women, Gordon could observe that, so he had to bring it to her noticed. Barbara frown, Dante had to dance with her woman that humiliated her, she gave Dante a cold look

Desperate ditch! Barbara called Scarlett in her mind. Ahem! She clear her throat, to stop the two men from having an eye battle. The thing is, my dress got ruin, I was about going home, when Gordon help me with dress and makeup, then assist me back to the party.

Unknown anger grown in Dante hearing the name Gordon, now he finally meet the idiot, who think he could beat his company? He is not only going after my company but now my woman?

Referring to her as his woman, his inner self laughed at him.

Silly, she is not your woman but your culprit, the one you want to punish. All culprit deserve punish and that is what she will get not your heart.

He sighed inwardly, Barbara could feel the tension going on between the two, she need to stop it before people start noticing them.

You two should stop staring like you have something against each other but please don't used me as a bait. She didn't wait for any of them to say a word to her, she move her ahead, she is determined to get her revenge on Scarlett.

Stay off, you wouldn't like my rage. That was Dante words to Gordon, the man smiled, he watch as Dante move back to Barbara, taking the young lady unaware, he pulled her to himself and cupped her face in his hand then lock his lips with hers, with one eyes telling Gordon, she is taken.

Gordon shake his head.

What is he trying to do? Marking his Territory? I always get what I want. His heart speak with his face creating an expressionless emotion.

Li Jun! She called in-between his lips, his eyes could tell that Gordon had disappeared he decided to free her, Barbara face flashed, with the way Dante is staring at her, she is the one who keeps telling Kathleen that she want Dante to tell her, his Feelings for her but now, she is getting hot from just his kiss.

She reach for a glass and drink everything in one gulp, then another and another, Dante eyes bulge out from the socket, this naughty girl is not planning of getting drunk.

Then on a second thought, he felt she could handle it, since she is a war freak.

Are you planning on getting drunk?

Nope! I don't get drunk, even if I have all the wine, I will never get drunk. It sound truth but a complete white lie, she grabbed another and gulp.

Do you know that woman? She keeps troubling me like that Jasmine of a model, who really are you? You should tell me, are you Li Jun? He nodded. But not a low life, even if that is truth?

The way she talks, it's shows that she is already tipsy.

That was fast, I thought she said, she can takes all the wine and still not get tipsy? He said mentally, his inner self laughed at him again.

You insolent man, you can't detect when someone is blabbing and be real?

Stop talking! He said out loud.

Why? Is my mouth smelling?

No! I never said your mouth is smelling.

You did, I need to wash it. She grabbed another and gulped before Dante could stop her. Huh! Is it still smelling? You should tell me, probably that will make that stupid woman of yours stop staring at us. Barbara keep talking nonsense, Scarlett couldn't detect that she is drunk, the only thing she could see, is the way Barbara's hand keep running on Dante's face and chest and get jealous with the act.

Nope! Come on let's leave. Dante pulled her hand.

I don't want to leave, I want to wait till it's over

Come on, let's go.

Is the party over?

Yes! So let's leave.

Then tell them to put off the music. They will but let's go.

Okay! She managed to say, Dante gasped for air as he success to lead her out, her step are not calculative anymore, as the elevator open, he walked towards the pack but someone stop him.

Hey! You leaving already.

Yes Mr Oliver, I need to go home.

Oh! You shouldn't leave yet, your dad asked for a file, so I need to give it to you.

Fine! I will be back shortly. Mr Oliver nodded, Dante pulled his car door for her, you should stay right here and don't leave.

I know, I am not stupid.

Are you sure? Barbara slap his face, it wasn't that hard.

Stop controlling me, I hate it. She said in a tipsy state, Dante find himself smiling then walk back into the elevator, he doesn't trust Barbara to keep to her words, on a norms, she is the stubborn type and knowing she is drunk, it's going to be a total mess and difficult to trust her words
