Chapter 892
How could Barbara really expect that Helios was also interested in her?
After a long while, Helios placed the cup near his lips and lifted his head to look at her. “I indeed had an urge to kiss you last night.”
Barbara was stunned. After that, she forced a smile onto her face and said, “You must be drunk…”
“Not really…” Helios replied after a long while, “I was wide awake at that time.”
Barbara froze in her spot. She was wondering if her brain or her ears were playing a trick on her. He had not been drunk. Instead, he had been wide awake.
‘Does this not mean that he knew I was teasing him with those words last night?’
The more she thought about it, the more she wanted to find a hole and bury herself in it. The ship returned to the Bass Wave Port in the afternoon. Ryleigh and her group came down from the ship. Her allergies had mostly subsided, but her eyes’ puffiness was still visible with the mask on. Louis took off his hat and put it on her head, stunning her. When she turned her head around, she saw that Barbara was walking away in a hurry.
She asked curiously, “Why is Barbara walking so fast?”
Colton and Daisie were walking behind her. Colton giggled when they heard Ryleigh’s question and replied, “Aunt Barbara must have been shy.”
‘Shy?’
Ryleigh thought for a while, and it was only then she remembered Barbara had kissed her cousin last night.
When that thought popped into her mind, she began to look around in the crowd for her cousin. She saw that Helios had sent his parents to the car. He was saying something to them before they entered the car.
Initially, Barbara was hoping that someone could fetch her home while they were on their way back, but apparently, no one was going the same way as her.
Then, Helios’ car appeared beside her. He rolled down the window and said, “Hop in.’
She was stunned and hesitated for a few seconds before opening the door.
Ryleigh was so shocked that she was petrified.
“When… When did they start seeing each other?”
Louis turned his head around to look at her. “I don’t think that’s your business, right?”
Standing with her hands on her hips, she lifted her chin to look at him and said,” Why is it not my business?”
“I don’t want to continue this conversation with you,” Louis said as he dusted his shirt. After that, he lowered himself with his eyebrows lifted and smiled at her. “If you have the leisure to care about others, why not put more effort into our own business?”
