Bernardo and his men went down to where the incident happened. The security team was there waiting.
“What’s going on here?”
Bernardo asked with his serious voice. This was a VIP room so the people outside this room did not know what happened.
“We got two suspicious men, boss. They are in the investigation room now.”
The bodyguard in charge of this room reported immediately. The men cleared the other customers to the next room already.
“Well done. look in the CCTV from the minute they walked into our casino and report me if there’s anything suspicious. I will investigate them by myself. You make sure everything is back to normal.”
Bernardo ordered and then walked to the investigation room. He was thinking it’s Bruno and Brown’s men.
Stefan was singing loudly until Jeffeo became quiet. He could not move far from the baby’s trolley because his son would cry. Stefan sighed. Next time, no baby and no dog. He told himself.
The man smiled to see his son slowly closed his eyes. He stopped singing and touched the soft hair of his child.
“You are my angel, you know? I love you so much. Next time better stay home with mummy, okay?”

“Are you really going back to Thailand?”
Wirata asked Amiya. The two were sitting in a coffee shop, sipping coffee in a relaxed atmosphere.
“Yes. I am getting bored of running around here.”
Amiya was making a sarcastic joke with her being chased by the jackass mafia.
“So you wanna go running around Thailand, huh? For what I have heard, Bernardo has a private jet and he can fly it himself. So he can follow you any time he likes, you know.”
Wirata said jokingly and Amiya pulled her face to know that.
Amiya had been in Las Vegas for over two years now. She felt enough and had decided to go back to Thailand to live with her grandparents. She liked living here at first. It was fun and had lots to do. She also worked secretly for her spy friend as a hacker with good money. But what had spoiled her fun was having to hide from the badass mafia named Bernardo. And now she was going to put a stop to it. She wanted to go back to Bangkok to start a new life and to do something that really matters.
“I hope not. I will shoot his badass if he really follows to mess about with me in my own home. I miss my grandpa and grandma, Wine. They are old and I should go back to take care of them. They are my everything. They will be very happy if they know my decision.”
Amiya’s Thai family was well-off.
“You haven’t told them yet?”
“No, not yet. As we know, how life can be funny. I don’t want to disappoint them in case things happen and I can’t go. So I will tell them when I arrive home. That’s my plan. I want to surprise them.”
“And I will miss you very much.”
“You can go to visit me. How long since you went back to Thailand?”
Amiya’s statement made Wirata think for a moment. It had been a long time ago. Because her mother was here and her father had a new family. She was not close to him but she did send him Christmas and New Year’s cards every year. So Wirata did not have reason to go back there for family, apart from going on holiday.
“It has been a long time and I can’t remember. But It sounds a good idea to visit you in the future when Jeffy can travel.”
Wirata said and Amiya smiled gladly.
“Please do. I will be very happy to drive Jeffy around Bangkok.”
Amiya said and smiled. They continued talking for while then said good-bye.

When she returned home, she saw Stefan’s car just drove in and a lot more cars followed. Wirata walked to wait in front of the private elevator.
Stefan got out with Jeffy in his arms. James hurried to take out the baby cart and Stefan put his sleeping child in it. When they walked to the elevator Stefan stopped immediately, seeing Wirata standing and waiting there with her frowned face.
“Where have you been?” She asked and bent down to look at Jeffy. He was sleeping peacefully.
“Sightseeing around here, darling. Why are you back so soon?”
Stefan answered and asked. Wirata looked at his handsome face. He smiled sweetly at her. That looked suspicious because whenever he put on his sweet smile like this it meant he had something to hide.
“Where?”
Wirata asked again. Stefan used his finger to draw a circle.
“Only around here.”
He replied with a straight face. Wirata let him off for now as she did not want to make a scene in front of his men. They went up to the penthouse. James put Summer in his room while Ben put all the stuff for the baby and the dog back in its place. Then the two bodyguards went their rooms.
They took Jeffy to the bedroom.
“Jeffy is too young to go out. There is a lot of dust and pollution out there. It is not safe for a baby.”
Wirata made a slight complaint to him, repeating the reasons she told him often why she did not allow the father to take the son out, as the mother who cared for her baby so much in all aspects. And if he had to go out, it had to be on her watch.
“He is six months old now, darling. He can go out to see the different scenes, a little bit.”
“Are you sure it’s only around here? Not Bernardo’s place?”
Wirata did not let him off until she felt satisfied. Because she saw his men. If a lot of them followed the godfather out like that, it meant he had serious business to deal with.
“Nah. Why on earth I would take my son to such a dangerous place like that. So tell me where you have been and how is Amiya?”
Stefan hurried to change the topic and pulled her to sit on the couch.
“If I know you took him to the casino. You will be in trouble, understood?”
Wirata made the final threat.
“Understood, boss.”
Stefan said and bent down to put his mouth on hers to shut her up. The kiss led to the next steps as usual until they were breathing fast and hard.
“What do you want for Valentine, my love?”
Stefan whispered after they finished one round on the couch.
“Nothing, darling. Just your love for me.”
Wirata whispered back. Stefan smiled.
“My love for you, it’s overloaded. Let me show you one more time.”
The man said with his soft voice and Wirata smiled. She let him showed his love as he wished and this time, it was a lot more than she wished for.
*********
Time flew so quickly. Stefan and Wirata with their son were very happy with their lives. And now the wedding anniversary came round again. It was their second anniversary. Their lives were blessed so far.
Stefan took Wirata for a romantic dinner. James and Ben were babysitting Jeffeo and Summer.
When they returned home the time was ten o’clock. The little Jeffeo was one and a half-year-old and he had gone to bed already.
Wirata had a quick shower and brushed her teeth, she changed into a nightgown. She felt so happy with her life so far. Stefan was a great husband she could ever wish for.
She climbed onto the bed and reached for the tablet device, turned it on. There were thousands of photos and video files installed in it. James and Ben gave it to them as a gift.
Wirata smiled to see how organized James was as she knew it was James who managed the files and Ben who bought the device. There were in folders with names in which gave her the ideas what they were about. The two bodyguards always gave them nice presents on every special occasion. This device was special as they had collected all the pictures and videos about Stefan and Wirata since they had met. Wirata did not expect this from the muscled bodyguards. Who’s gonna think that the two would have such romantic minds like this.
There were folders such as; Before the Fall. Falling and Rolling in the deep, Wedding, Pregnancy, Here comes Baby and so on.
Wirata tapped on the folder icon to see the pictures. This one was when they were in her mother’s restaurant. He put his face close to hers and she was not smiling. Wirata remembered it was when he caught that Sam and she had lied to him about being lovers.
Now she was smiling. Thanks to James for this one.
There were a lot of video clips. She saw the title ‘Roses for her’. She tapped on it.
The video showed the man was standing in front of his mother’s house. He was looking at roses. And he also talked to himself. He reached to grab a rose and hurried to pull his hand back and swearing as he grabbed the thorns.
“What are you watching?”
Stefan asked. The tall figure walked out of the bathroom with a towel wrapped around his waist. He stepped onto the bed and sat next to her.
“I’m watching the video James and Ben gave us.”
“I was hoping that my wife was watching a porno to get ready.
Stefan teased and kissed her cheek and looked at the video on the screen. Wirata laughed to hear the lusty man’s wish.
“No way. So this was how you cut the roses for me?”
She murmured and smiled pleasingly to see ‘Behind the scene’ how he got the roses for her when they were at his mother’s house before she got pregnant.
“Yes, be proud Wirata Mackenzie. Because I had never cut the roses for any woman. Only you and you only. That is it.”
Stefan said and Wirata gave him a peck on his lips as a reward for his first time cutting the roses by himself for her.
Stefan heard the giggles of James and Ben when he was shaking his hand with pain because of the thorns.
“Those two bastards were really laughing at me. Tomorrow I will kick their asses.”
Stefan said and Wirata laughed and that made him laugh, too. Stefan loved looking at her beautiful face especially when she was smiling and laughing like this. He could not find words to explain his feelings of how happy he was at the moment.
“Thank you for everything, sweetheart. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to see the world in different aspects. Thanks for being patient with a spoiled mafia like me and thank you for giving me the most precious give I could ever wish for.”
He said to her with his gentle voice.
“You’re welcome. And thank you, too, for everything, hubby. I love you so much and appreciated everything you have been doing for me, for our Jeffy, and for my family.”
Wirata said with gratitude and kissed on his chin. Stefan smiled.
“My pleasure. You and Jeffy are my life and my everything, don’t have to say thank you.”
Stefan reached to open the night-stand and took a present out.
“This is for you. Happy 2nd anniversary, my love.”
He whispered and kissed her hair. Wirata accepted the wrapped gift with excitement.
“Thank you. What is it?” She asked.
“Open it and tell me if you like it or not.”
Stefan said and smiled happily to see that she was so happy. He hoped their lives together would be blessed just like this every day and forever.
Wirata was so excited. She could not believe it was their second anniversary already and she wished and hoped for more of the happy years to come.
