Chapter 64: Chapter 64

Barbara, are you now keeping secret from me?

Nope!

Then tell me, about him. She pout, Jeff eyes didn't leave her

Fine, He was the one who bash my car and I met him at the party, I attended with Li Jun.

You attended a party with him?

Yes, he said his boss asked to represent him.

His boss indeed?

Yes, come on, let's go, we talk about the others on our way.

Fine! He lower his back for Barbara to climb on it, it's been ages, Jeffrey gave her piggyback ride, she missed it, it all stop, when she started dating derrick. So many things they do together, all of them stop, she is no longer single, he had to be careful around her.

****

Barbara and Jeffrey arrived at a restaurant not far from his office, instead of using his car, he walked with her down there, all eyes were on them.

Hm! I really missed this, I should always visit, so I could ride on your back.

Baby!

Hm! What is it Jeff?

Nothing, let's just eat. They were already at the restaurant, the place is well arranged with nice light, it has little or no one in it, that is what Barbara like, a quiet place.

This is lovely?

I know you will like it, I was thinking of bringing you here, during dinner but it turns out, you prefer lunch. Barbara smiled, Jeffrey signalled the waitress to bring the menu.

So what are your plans? Jeffrey asked.

No plans yet, I just want to get my life back.

Hm! Why getting your life back? What have you been up to? Barbara smiled at him, he wants details.

To be honest, nothing really much, so much have happened, my mom, Claudia, Derrick all of them had been a bone in my neck, I really want to get my life back, I hope I could do it. by weekend, I will go back home, I am also planning on looking for my biological parents.

Jeffery look at her, she had never dreamed of that, what's up with this madness, that is not the main thing Jeffrey want to hear but he should be patient with her.

Don't worry, everything will be fine, You've face worse issues worse than this and if looking for your biological parents will make you hold, then I will always be here to help you search for them

"Uh! So sweet, you always know how to make me happy, are you sure, you don't read my mind?" Barbara pulled his chin and then smiled brightly at him. They both take the menu card and start searching for their meal.

So the party, you attend, how did it go? Jeffrey is curious to know everything about the party, since Barbara had mentioned that, he texted his assistant Peter, he needs to get the information..

"Oh, it was so much fun, Mr Oliver is such a funny man, he and his wife had some crazy dance step, that I think only him and his wife originated, he was praising CEO Dante but is like the man didn't show up and then my dress got ruin.

Really?

Yes, but it's fine, Gordon had to give me the dress he made for his sister, that is it.

What about the one you attend the party with?

He was busy, talking to his friends, so we didn't have much time together. While Barbara is telling the story, she didn't make the mistake of adding him kissing her but now that he got the reply from his assistant his face is all sour, Dante actually kiss Barbara right on her lips and it wasn't even a peck.

Jeffrey clenched his face, his face is full of rage, bead of sweat form on his head, even with air-condition, he still feels uneasy, he wants to grabbed Barbara and yelled at her but then her hand meet his.

Are you alright? Don't tell me, you are sick and you still working? She asked with worried face, she place her palm on his head to check his temperature.

"Come on dear, I am fine, just work stress" he pulled her hand from his head then place on his laps.

How come I don't believe you, let's go to the hospital, after that, you should go home and rest, I will check your diet, so I know if you are eating well. Jeffrey keep looking at her. Don't look at me, you are neglecting yourself, I will have to tell mother, what you doing, if you don't listen to me.

Oh Barbara, I am fine, with the way you treat me, I might never let you go.

Idiot! Where am I going? Barbara feed him with her spoon. Can I taste Sichuan Pork?

Hm! Since when did you like that? Barbara has large appetite, she always asked for extra but never had she asked for that dish

I just want to try it, this happened to be a friend of mine favorite. Barbara smiled broad, she wander away in her thought, every single thing reminds her of Dante.

Barbara, what planet Earth are you? He was force to asked, with the way Barbara is smiling, it only means one thing, she is in love.

You were saying? Jeffrey voice pulled her back, he ogle at her

Oh nothing! I just remembered something funny, it's nothing really.

What is that thing, you remember?

Hm! This is lovely,come on and try it, you will like it. Barbara said, dodging the question, Jeffrey smirked.

For the past days, I feel you get lost in your imagination.

And you keep pulling me back because you don't let me wondering away in peace.

Did I unknowingly find you and dragged you back?

Yes, you don't just dragged me back but destroy the road back to it, how wicked could you be, to stop my adventure and stop people from worry about me. Ruthless Love.

Jeffrey had an hearty laughter, every moment with Barbara count, she is like his life supporting machine, everytime, he shares moment with her, he is always happy, from her caring, little talk, her childish behavior, everything is perfect in his eyes, he can't lose her to anyone not even to Dante, he had love her for as long as he breath, he love her for who she is, not what she is. If he was asked to exchange riches for Barbara, he will rather remain poor than lose Barbara to another man.

Whoa! This is really yummy!

Barbara, I have clear my table, we should leave by weekend for the hiking.

Oh! I will sure clear mine as well then, so we can go.

Fine but don't come with Kathleen.

Silly, I know you want just the two of us, so don't worry I am not inviting her and that naughty girl, didn't show up this morning before I left.

Okay! Weekend will be perfect then, I missed hiking, I missed lying on you.

Jeffrey smiled, during most of their hiking, Barbara always lie on him, she is scared of creeping things but not afraid of heights
