Chapter 95: Chapter 95

That morning, Dante and Jayden is having breakfast, although Jayden now run his father's company, the man health had deteriorate, so he introduced Jayden as the new chairman of the company and Dante now have a new assistant, the two still live together.

Brother man, are you sure, you want to work with Gordon?

Of cause, he is not all that bad, although, I know he had a big grudge against me, I still think, it's better to have your enemy closer while your friends close.

Mr Harold look at his son, he is grown, now a man in his late twenties, yet his heart is far from happy, he sighed badly but did not comment on it.

Are you still going to get married to Mr Taio's daughter? Jayden asked.

Is it bad? I thought everyone need a sister-in-law and a grandchild. Dante added that part sarcastically. Jayden look at Sally, who had met Barbara, in one of her visit with Jayden to Kathleen, Sally who is the cousin of Dante ended up having the complete story behind Dante and Barbara.

For two years, Sally had live with them and she also work with the company, she move in when she lost her parents, her mother is the younger sister of Harold.

Since Barbara left, Dante had gone back to the cold man, he is, he had practically turned himself into a working machine and making money was the only thing in his mind now.

The previous year, when he find out Barbara was coming back, he was excited to meet her and Gordon had told him that she will be joining his company, he is thinking this time, he is going to tell her what he felt for her, then she didn't show up, he had to travel to her Grandpa city, to look for her, but he got the shock of his life, seeing Jeffrey kissing Barbara, he returns and lock himself up from the world, he felt betrayed for the second time, if she had love him, then she should had waited for him.

Not knowing that Barbara was drunk and up to this day, the young lady never did had an idea that, Jeffrey stole a kiss from her.

Bro! Sally called him, he turned his gaze to her, that cold eyes made her keep quiet, looking at Jayden to help out.

Dante, I got to know that Barbara is back and she is joining the company meeting this morning. Dante face was without expression, he narrowed his eyes, holding firmly to his cutleries.

Jayden watch his every move, even though he didn't say anything, he knew how much Dante love Barbara, he care for her, he protected her, he was almost dying of worries, when Noah inform him, of a man that is stalking Barbara without her knowledge and when someone almost kidnapped Barbara, he added another guard to Noah.

****

The board meeting had already started, as scheduled, neither Barbara nor Gordon as arrived, Dante keeps his eyes fixed on the door, he was so impatient, he just hope that this doesn't turned at like the previous year, when Gordon inform him that Barbara is coming and she didn't show up.

While waiting for Barbara and Gordon, vote were cast, removing Mr Jackson, the COO of the company, they are some irregularities and loopholes in his part, that he is no longer capable to handle that position.

We will now, cast vote for the new COO? We can't afford to run the company without one. Secretary Mila said.

"We will just need to place a call to Mr Gordon, to give his vote" one of the board members suggested, all the board members are present except Gordon.

That be the case, we start without him. Dante said then signal his secretary to closed the door, she was about to closed the door, when Gordon and Barbara walked in.

All eyes were on the woman beside Gordon, she is in a business attire, but still emitting a beauty like the sun, she is pretty, with her hair down, she had grown her hair longer than before, that long hair gave her more beauty and seductive look.

Dante couldn't take his eyes off her, his eyes tail her to her seat, through the meeting Dante wasn't himself, Barbara ended up been the COO, which means she had to work closely with the CEO, which is no other person than Dante.

He is among the people who voted for her, no one was expecting that, everyone was shock when Dante put his hands up to cast his vote for her.

Congrats miss Barbara! Secretary Mila said.

Thank you!

By the way, I am Mila.

Oh, Barbara, nice to meet you.

Everyone keeps congratulating her, she is shock but she could try her best to be calm, after everyone left the board room, Barbara hugged Gordon in excitement.

You are excited?

Hm! She nodded, with her face radiating with smile, Sally hugged her, the two are friends.

Congrats!

Thanks, I never doubt I could get in, I really hope to I could do this perfectly

You will, you are looking really beautiful. Sally hugged her, Dante had already left the conference room, when all the drama are happening.

Babe, I got to go, I have an appointment. Barbara look at him. Don't worry, you will be fine, Sally is here, if anyone bully you, you should let me know.

She nodded as Gordon also hurry out, Sally pulled her hand in excitement. At least, I should have an alibi now, some one I could relied upon.

And a gossip mate. The two laughed, the first time they had met, the pair really good, since they were teasing Kathleen and Jayden, who up till now doesn't know the type of relationship they are in.

Miss Barbara...

Just call me Barbara. Isla gave Barbara a weak smile, Barbara didn't take notice of it but Sally notice it, Barbara might get in trouble, Isla as always have her eyes on Dante since her employment, she had seduce him so many times, but Dante been the gay everyone libel him, he as never blink at her.

Fine Barbara, you should come with me, CEO Dante, said I should instruct you on what to do. So you have to follow me. Barbara bid Sally good bye as she walked behind Isla. Barbara eyes bulge out, when she guide her to the office adjacent to Dante's.

This is your office.

Wait? She turned her eyes, the first office they passed Dante is sitting there, if this is her office, it only means, she will always passed his office before entering there and to think that it's a transparent glass wall that separate them. Dante could watch her every move.

What is it?

Are there no blind here? Isla look at her, she should be happy, Isla had long to be in her position, for as long as she had worked there, to have her office right inside her crush office, yet this naughty lady just arrived and CEO Dante is so comfortable with her been inside his office.

No! It's only the boss that have blind. Isla said and left Barbara in dilemma, she looks at the office it's spacious, nothing to worried about except those eyes of Dante that might constantly bug her, right now, he is staring at her and all of a sudden he stand up from his chair.
