Taming The Las Vegas Playboy

Chapter 52 - Straight To Business (2)



Now the two enemies were face to face and eyed each other without a blink of fear.

"What do you have to say?" Bernardo broke the silence first. He leaned back to his comfortable chair with a cool and smooth posture, wanted to know what Stefan had in mind.

Stefan stood tall and crossed his armed. Staring into his enemy's eyes.

"How much has John owed you?" He asked what he wanted to know. Bernardo raised his eyebrow.

"A lot. Why?" Bernardo sounded out.

"I will pay for him. You give me all the contracts he has with you. I'll give you the money."

Stefan spoke his thought straight and clear.

"Wow! I was so shocked to hear this. I've heard you never cared about any woman's family. It's only her body that's all you wanted."

Bernardo said with a low laugh in his throat as if he had just heard something so funny.

Stefan told himself to continue playing cool and didn't jump into Bernardo's trap, the dickhead was trying to get him mad. Stefan knew the bastard's trick so well at this point.

"Stop barking and wasting time. I said I'll pay for him. So just bring out all the contracts and get it done. This is the best option that you can get right now."

Stefan said with a steady voice as he knew what he was doing.

"My best option? Really?" Bernardo eyed Stefan with his cool gesture, he knew it would irritate Stefan's mood more or less, just to see him look cool like this.

"Yes. Because if you wait for John to pay you off, you might get it the next life. I know that you don't want to kill him because you won't gain anything out of his death. And I also know that you are not interested in his house as you have too many houses already and you don't even remember where the fuck some of the houses are located. Also, John's house is too old, you won't get any profit."

Stefan said. He knew that Bernardo had been running properties and estate business, bought and sold houses and he had bought so many in every corner of the country. He did keep an eye on his enemy all these years!

"I am not interested in money right now. But I am interested in what you are interested in."

Bernardo said. He could guess what Stefan was wanting, he smiled mockingly.

Stefan gritted his teeth. He was aware that Bernardo wanted him to lose control of his mood, the bastard was a psychopath, wanted to get some blood running out of his body just like every time they encountered!

"I know you are a perverse bastard but I am not here to fight today. Just take my offer, when I am in a good mood and as you know I don't do this often."

Stefan said to his enemy. He gave himself a big credit that until now he still managed to stand still, not throw any fists and kicks to the bastard's badass yet.

"I like Wirata. I was thinking of giving her a good offer."

Bernardo sounded out, wanted to test Stefan's reaction in the topic he guessed that's the real reason behind Stefan's visiting him today. And Bernardo was not disappointed to see Stefan's eyes had changed to be dark and furious immediately when hearing his statement.

"Don't you dare to touch her. She is my woman, son of a bitch!"

The harsh voice said and showing that his patience was running low.

Bernardo laughed in his throat, very happy to know Stefan's new weak point. The woman was his weakness now. So it meant Bernardo had the new way to hurt and challenge Stefan. And it sounded fun!

"But John was talking with me about her." Bernardo tried another shot. Stefan was counting one to ten. Since he knew Bernardo's game. So he calmed himself down and stayed cool again.

"I've done talking now. I'll give you one day to make the decision. Get your money back in full included interest. I hope you will use your small bain to think hard and make the right decision. I'll give you a call by tomorrow." Stefan said and didn't care to say good-bye. He turned back to the door and strode out.

Wirata looked around the penthouse and found that there were so many rooms. And there was a room next to his. They were adjoining rooms, had a door connected. So Wirata decided to drag her suitcases in. She wanted her own private space and this was one of the rules in the contract she had written down.

It was 3 p.m. by the time she had finished arranging her clothes in the wardrobes. She brought Summer to the new room and played with him on the carpet in front of the bed.

The door swung open and the tall figure walked in, his face was so grumpy.

"Who allowed you to use this room?!!"

The scolded voice asked when saw her. Wirata stood up with Summer in her arms. The puppy was moaning and trying to go to Stefan.

"I want to have my own room. Here is the draft contract."

She said and walked to the table in front of the couch, handed the paper to him. He snatched it from her hand and sat down on the couch.

"Why do you want a room. My room is big enough for two people." He said with an edgy voice, leaned back to the couch and started to read the draft. Then he looked up.

"Come here, boy."

He spoke to Summer the puppy made the happy sound immediately when Stefan put him on his lap. He stroked his small head and read again, quietly.

"I am used to sleeping alone. Please don't get mad yet. Because you don't like anybody in your bed either."

"Who told you?!"

Stefan looked up and asked then he thought it could have been his meddlesome bodyguards!

"Not important. But it's true. You know well. Just think in the long term, when I am not here anymore. You wouldn't feel strange to be on your own again. If you understand what I mean. It's for your own good."

"What?! Oh, wow! Are you thinking that I would fall for your charms? And I would miss you so much when you go? I think you praise yourself a little too high, Wirata. "

The sarcastic voice said with a laugh as if he was listening to a joke.

Wirata stayed cool. She believed this man had never heard the saying 'He who laughed last, laughed best'.

"Well, it's not what you think. By the way, there is the door and it shouldn't be a problem." She said, didn't want to argue with him since the start because there is more of the contract to go through yet.

"Alright. It's up to you. But whenever I want to have sex with you, make sure you will be quick to wait for me in my bed. Don't let me wait for you. Do you understand?"

He said bluntly, treating it as business talk. Wirata tried to show the indifferent expression on her face as if she was used to this kind of words.

"I understand. It's a one-year contract. But you can end it at any time you like if I guess correctly." Wirata said. Stefan looked up and nodded.

"Yes. You get it right. I'm the boss so I can end it whenever I want. Because I get bored easily with a stupid woman." He shot her a gaze as if the woman he talked about was her. He handed the paper back to her.

"Read it for me. I'm tired."

He ordered then leaned his head on the back of the couch and closed his eyes.

"Well, this is only the draft I haven't written it properly and want to hear your opinions as well. " Wirata said. She had made a few. It's about wiping her stepfather's debt clean, about the private room for herself and some more to read for him.

"Okay. Don't forget to put down that I won't use protection. Talking about this, I've brought you the morning after pills. You better go take it now."

He said, picked it from his pocket and handed it to her. Wirata didn't hesitate to receive it and ran to the kitchen right away.

When she came back to the room. Summer was sleeping on his lap while the boss himself was closing his eyes. Wirata wasn't sure if he was sleeping like the puppy or not.

"Do continue."

The voice murmured, still in the ordered tone. Wirata then started to read to him again.
