Chapter 76 - The leadership (2) (1/2)
Later, Wirata called Bernardo.
”Listen to me, Bernardo.”
Bernardo raised his eyebrow when he heard the clear crystal voice ordered him which nobody dared to do before. He lifted a corner of his mouth to smile. She was very brave and a daredevil one if she could last this long with Stefan. that meant she was very special.
”Have you decided to come to stay with me? I will send a car to pick you up right away.”
The dashing voice said in a teasing tone causing Wirata to smile a little. Bernardo was solemn and cool, quieter than Stefan. But if comparing, they both were a fire. None of them an ice prince.
”What I am going to tell you, it is a secret between you and me, okay?”
She said in a quiet tone.
”Say it.” The response was short.
”Your enemy, Bruno ... is the person who slandered Stefan. And last night this guy sent people to burn Uncle John's pub. ”
”I already know about the pub. I guess Stefan is going to slash the bastard. Huh? ”
Bernardo had received a report from his men not long ago that Bruno was behind the incident.
”Well, since you already knew about that. And if I guess correctly, you have already planned how to handle it as well. Sorry to bother you.”
She hung up immediately. Bernardo put the phone down. He smiled a little admiring the woman courage to ring him. She was a very smart one. She didn't say much but a man like Bernardo was not stupid. He could read her game straight and clear. She didn't refuse about Stefan going to attack Bruno and she wanted him to join the bastard! That was the reason she rang.
Bernardo had already made plans. Bruno was his direct enemy. He would handle the dickhead by himself. He did not need Stefan to be in his way.
”Change the attack time to be sooner. Get our people ready.”
The harsh voice ordered his minions.

The sound of knocking on the door. Wirata hurried to open it. She locked it while talking on the phone with Bernardo. The tall body standing there, looking at her with his sharp blue eyes.
”Why did you lock the door?” He asked with a suspicious expression on his face.
”Oh, um ... I didn't realize it was locked. ”
She made an innocent face. Stefan stared at her face to find any dubious acts if she had any. The beautiful face looked at him without avoiding his gaze, her beautiful eyes were blank. Stefan put his arm around her shoulders and walked through the adjoining door to his bedroom.
”What is it? What did Ben have to say?” Wirata asked.
”Nothing much, just some progress about the issue I asked them to find out.”
Stefan answered. He didn't want to tell her everything. It's his business. No woman was allowed to get involved.
”Good. Since there is nothing important, now you can rest. Tonight if you feel better, you said you would take me to dinner, right?”
She tried him, wanted to see what he would say.
”Hm, tonight I have an urgent errand to run. I am going to see a client. I will take you tomorrow night. ”
He lied because he thought she didn't know about his attack plan. The tall figure sat down at the edge of the bed, pulling her to sit on his lap.
”We haven't finished our business yet. Let's continue.”
He whispered, sending his tongue into her ear. Wirata jerked with tickling and her heart skipped the beat.
”Don't be crazy. Now you have to rest. I don't want anybody to hear and think...um, we are...um...”
She having trouble to finish the sentence when he kissed her neck and sucked on her skin.
”Don't worry. This room is soundproofed.”
He said to clear her fear. Stefan pushed her gently to lie down on the bed. The tall body took off his clothes again, very quickly. He put his face between her breasts. Wirata was blushing, knowing what he wanted.
”So, do you want me to cook something for dinner? You should eat before you go out.”
She tried to talk to him and pushed his face off her chest. But he didn't let her do it easily. His mouth started to plant kisses and his tongue started to lick her nipples.
”Stefan stop. Don't start again. You should rest or tell me what you want to eat for dinner so I can prepare it for you.”
”I want to drink WINE, can I?” He answered with a crafty smile.
”I am serious, Stefan. You have to eat and take medicine. You should care about your health a little.” She made a scolded voice as if he was a child.
”Don't worry, I can look after myself. I don't need you to order me around.”
The gruff voice said, making Wirata silent. She realized that she talked too much and worried about the things she shouldn't. Never forget that this was only a temporary situation. Only one year. Wirata reminded herself quietly.
”Alright. Up to you.” She said in low voice. He caressed her soft skin down on her thighs making her stop thinking and felt shivering all over her body.
”Where are Ben and James? ”
She asked. Still worried about the noise he might make. Since she couldn't stop him so she had to let him get what he wanted.
”They're gone.”
