Chapter 82: Chapter 82

The next morning, Barbara was the first to wake up which is unlike her, she pack her stuff, she really wants to go away, away from everything, the pain in her heart.

She felt she was hurt seeing Derrick and Claudia in bed but that was just a little of her pain, Dante betrayal is enough to make her go crazy, she is really down but trying her best to be strong.

You are leaving? Hazel asked seeing her with bags.

Yes, I have to go. Barbara voice was low, yet clear like she haven't cry herself through the night.

Did your dad know about this? Hazel asked.

Yes, he gave me the permission to leave. Barbara take a few step forward then halt. Thanks for loving me even if it's not genuine.

Hazel eyes darken, yet having a smiling face, it turns out that Claudia plan worked abit, if all these wouldn't had happened Barbara will never leave and how Barbara could see through her all the time is one thing she can't figure out.

I go on now.

Say me well to your grandfather. Barbara nodded walking behind Fiona, who is carrying her luggage.

Good riddance to bad rubbish, I pray she never returned. Hazel turned and look at Claudia.

You should stop now, I will take it from here, I am going to make her disappear completely from our lives.

Hazel smirked, with that evil smiled on her face, Claudia could tell, her mother is having an interior motivate. Although dying to asked, she decided to keep quiet and watch how Hazel is going to make that happen.

Is she safe. Gordon asked with keen interest, he was a bit worried when Rod called him early that, Barbara had pack her stuff and was leaving the mansion.

Yes boss, she is safe, she is with her grandfather, I think she need to forget Dante.

Good, you should make arrangements for my departure to that place, I need to arrive the city as early as tomorrow.

Gordon, are you stalking her?

She is my responsibility, I will have to protect her.

Protect her? Rod asked confused. Yes! And don't asked the reason, you should stalk her and give me, her activities for the next four days.

Alright boss!

You better, do it perfect or you will be have me to combat with. Rod rolled his eyes at the naughty Gordon before ending the call.

Who will soon be where she ought to be? That was Lucia, his sister, the young lady is going to tease him.

Lucia what are you doing?

To see my workaholic brother that refused to settle down.

Why will you say so? Everyone wants to get married.

Yes everyone except you.

You are very naughty. Gordon try to range his files so they could go out.

Brother, did you watch the news?

What news? Gordon asked ignorantly.

CEO Dante's and Barbara's scandal.

Oh that! Gordon added nonchalantly.

Yes, I never thought that, CEO Dante could be so mean, how could he hurt a girl that way, he is been childish. Gordon look at Lucia who is acting all mad like she is the one in Barbara shoe. Why are you sulking? Is she your blood? Gordon tease Lucia.

Stop it brother, she is a good girl, I only feel bad for her. Gordon smile, Lucia held Gordon's hand, causing him to stared at her. Don't you love her? You should be friend her, help heal her pain, maybe, you two could get married.

Stop talking nonsense, let's go have lunch, I know that is the reason you came.

No! I want to go for shopping, I am having shooting, the next couple of days, so I want to look good during the shoot and your fashion sense is mind-blowing.

Stop teasing brother, let's leave. She grabbed Gordon's hand, as the two walked out.

Grandpa Jarius wasn't available when Barbara arrived, she settled down really fast, after taking her bath, she decided to have little nap.

Where is my granddaughter? Grandpa Jarius asked his butler.

I think she is having a nap, she look exhausted when she arrives. butler Vernon reply the old man.

Alright, I go to her, to check. Grandpa Jarius is really very impatient, when it comes to this granddaughter of hers, he is possessive as well and he could hurt anyone who hurt his granddaughter. Barbara! He called as he hit on the door.

Hm! He is here! She hurry out of her to meet him. Grandpa! She hugged him tight.

Do you want to stop your grandpa breath?

Of cause not, I missed you. She sniffed the old man, grandpa Jarius smiled watching the naughty girls action, she liked to sniff him since she is a baby, she keeps saying that her grandpa smell like chocolate.

You should tell Grandpa, you want chocolate, sniffing it will only make you crave for it more.

Barbara titter at her grandfather words, she missed it, she missed the old man teasing.

Thanks grandpa, for accepting me, even in short notice.

Stop talking nonsense, you are my granddaughter, so this is also your home and what is it I heard? Barbara face turn sour, as grandpa Jarius guard her to the couch.

I am sorry grandpa, I really don't mean to bring disgrace to the family, I never knew he is CEO...

Not that. Barbara look at him. Calvin told me, that you almost get killed in that no good suburbs.

I am sorry grandpa, I really... The butler tap on her door, Barbara look at her grandfather.

Come on in. The butler enter then bow,

Here cheese and juice, my lady and Master Jarius!

Drop it on the table. He drop the glass of juice and then leave. Go on and have a juice, you should eat more often, you are losing weight. Barbara facepalm herself. Go on, you should look more beautiful when you return, so Dante wouldn't be able to denial his heart what it want. Barbara look at her grandpa confused. Stop staring at grandpa, you should eat first, later we will have to take a walk while we talk about your birth mother.

My birth mother?

Barbara asked in excitement, grandpa Jarius nodded, sipping on his juice, Barbara too sip on hers, he look at her.

Yes but on one condition. Barbara look at the old man, she already knows his condition.

No grandpa, I don't want to hear anymore. Grandpa Jarius smile, there is no way he could tell Barbara about her birth mother without Calvin giving him the order, he only want to distract her abit, Barbara will never accept to go golfing with him, she really hate it.

Are you sure, you don't want to hear it before rejecting the offer?

Grandpa, I already know, so forget it, is not like she is important.

Barbara is right, Camille Kyle is not important, she is bad news, that no daughter will be proud of.
