Taming The Las Vegas Playboy Chapter 184 - Here comes Happy Time

Wirata kept herself warm with a thick and soft sweater, coat and scarf. She wore black jeans and boots. All that was because Stefan had to make sure she was not going to get cold. 

The square and shopping center was crowded, full of shoppers. People were walking and rushing like armies of ants, their hands were full of bags. The big Christmas trees, the lights, and all decorations made the atmosphere look exciting and made people feel joy in their hearts, ready for the special time of the year.

Wirata walked hand in hand with Stefan having Ben and James followed.

"Don't walk too fast, you might stumble. And I don't want people to walk into you." 

  Stefan said. Wirata smiled at him and nodded just to give him peace.

"I think you should go and sit down at the coffee shop. Let me do the shopping. It looks crazy and I don't feel like seeing you walking here and risking to be knocked down."

Stefan said when he saw that there were too many people. He decided to take Wirata to the nearest coffee shop which had only a couple of tables available.

 "Please wait here with Ben. I and James will do the shopping and I will try to be quick."

He told her and took the list from her. Wirata nodded. She did not want to take a risk, too.

"Okay. I am seeing Amiya here. So it will be easy for her to find me. Please be careful and don't kill anybody."

She teased the powerful godfather. Stefan pretended to give her a glare.

"I will if I see any man comes to talk to you without my permission."

He said and gave her a peck on her lips.

"You already had a cup of coffee so just order herbal tea, okay? As you are allowed to have only a cup of coffee a day."

The father-to-be was very strict with Wirata's routine.

Ben and James were rolling their eyes to hear the boss ordered his missy in every detail. And unfortunately, the boss turned to see their reaction. He glared.

 "What's wrong with your eyes? I've noticed that you two liked to look up too often these days. Let me know if you want to go up there as well, to see God. I can do you a favor by shooting your arses and send you up!"

"You roll your eyes up like that again, be careful, it might not come down or if I get annoyed, it may give a fist. "

The voice scolded. Ben and James only smiled politely and pretended to look away to hide their smiles.

"Ben, take good care of Wirata. Don't let anyone comes close to her."

 Stefan ordered his bodyguard and bent down to kiss Wirata's cheek before separating with James. Wirata smiled and her eyes followed the tall figure in his leather jacket and jeans. He turned to wave and blew a kiss to her. Wirata laughed to see such a flirting reaction he made.

"I love you."

He also shouted without care and people just looked at the handsome man then smiled, trying to look who he was said those special three words to.

Wirata, therefore, blew a kiss back to him. The man hurried to grab it in the air and put on his left chest, so flirtatious and charming!

"Fucking hell! What is this all about? I just feel the puke is coming out of my throat."

Bernardo's voice made Stefan turned to look immediately. Seeing Bernardo followed by Murphy and Tyson as usual.

  "And who's stopping you? Go ahead." Stefan said sarcastically.

 Bernardo did not leave the opportunity to ridicule the Grand MC master. Stefan made a grumpy face.

"Listen. Today I'm in a good mood. Don't you dare to ruin my mood, or I will make sure you celebrate your Christmas in a hospital. During this holiday season, you should know manners. Stop barking, spewing and spitting rot at people just for Santa's sakes."

Stefan said and slapping Bernardo's shoulder very hard.

Murphy, Tyson, and James were sending signals saying ... the lovers were beginning to have fun.

"Um, boss, I think we better hurry, your Missy is waiting. A lot of people like this, the things you want to buy might run out of stock soon. "James reminded the boss.

"Oh, Wirata over there! That's great! I have something to talk to her."

Bernardo pretended that he just saw Wirata. The Grand Costa godfather walked to her. But Stefan quickly pulled his arm to stop him. He made a  grumpy face.

"Don't you dare to disturb her. My fiancee is not a public body and you can't just walk to talk to her as you wish. I think you need to learn to be considerate a little."

Stefan knew that Bernardo's target was Amiya. He was not sure if she arrived here yet. But he still did not trust the jackass with Wirata.

 "Damn! Alright. Go chase Santa. I won't waste your time anymore."

 Bernardo agreed easily. Making Stefan frown. But James kept pulling his shirt, warning him that they had to hurry.

"Don't bother my wife, Birdie. I warn you, alright?"

Stefan threatened and the walked away with Jame.

Bernardo shook his head. He walked towards Wirata. But only halfway, before going any closer to the coffee shop, he stopped dead in his tracks!

Right there in front of his eyes, the tall slender figure he remembered well was walking straight to Wirata. She covered her golden-brown hair with a black wool hat, wearing a dark pink sweater, topped with a black leather jacket. Her long legs filled nicely in tight jeans with high boots. Her hands were in her jacket pockets.

 Bernardo hurried to step to hind behind a shoe shop nearby.

  "Aren't you going in, boss?" Murphy asked in a low tone. Bernardo smirked, his eyes never left the scene in front of him.

"Not yet. We will wait for her to leave first, then we will follow."  

The man did have a plan. His sharp eyes were watching her very closely.

"Hey, dickhead! I know what evil plan you are playing in your stupid head right now."

Stefan's harsh voice said loudly behind his back unexpectedly, causing Bernardo to flinch before turning around and raised his eyebrow up to see Stefan was there.

Stefan was halfway and decided to walk back because he really did not trust Bernardo about Wirata.

He saw Bernardo and his henchmen were hiding and just poked their heads out to sneak at Amiya. Amiya had just arrived. She walked to hug Wirata. They were smiling and greeting one another with delightfulness.

"Why are you back?"

"Because I don't trust you, as simple as that."

"Hey, I am not going to do anything with her. Are you jealous? Ah, I see. It's because you know that most women can't stand my charm and you know I have more to offer than you." Bernardo was saying to make Stefan mad. Stefan slapped his back hard.

"That's not true. But however, today I won't let you ruin my mood and my day. So I see that you are peeping at Amiya. Do you want me to help?"

 Stefan was playing nice! Bernardo did not believe his ears but he could see that Wirata and Amiya were very friendly to one another. Stefan might be useful in this case.

"Yeah. I want Santo's daughter ... I have some business to talk to her."

Berna said what he wanted. Stefan nodded to acknowledge.

"I see. Just wait and see. I am going to help you right now."

Stefan said and slapped Bernardo's shoulder again as if they were lifelong friends. Stefan walked towards the coffee shop, but only halfway. Then he stopped in between and started to shout very loudly. 

"Wooh! Amiya! This way. Here!"

Stefan waved to Amiya.

"There is a jackass here! He wants to talk to you. His name is Bernardo. He is hiding there, behind the shoe shop. And he is peeping at you. I think he might have a plan. Wooh!"

Stefan's loud voice causing Amiya, Wirata, and Ben, including people who were walking around to turn and looked at Stefan with curiosity, wanting to know what was going on.

"Can you see, Amiya? Look there! He's hiding behind those Italian shoes. You might not be able to separate between his face and those shoes, coz they look damn similar! And I think you should run!"

 Amiya looked at Stefan's hand that pointing at the shoe shop and she saw Bernardo grimacing with anger. The tall body strode out of the hiding place. Amiya widened her eyes in shock. He was looking at her with his dark eyes.

"Oh, God. It's him! The butthead! Wine, I have to go now! I'll give you a call later. See you!"

 Amiya said to Wirata and hugged her then she quickly turned back and ran away.

 "Fuck! Damn you, Stefan!"

Bernardo cursed furiously and pushed Stefan out of his way with frustration. He ran after Wirata, Murphy and Tyson followed. 

Stefan was laughing with satisfaction to see such a scene. Wirata shook her head in disapproving to see her man behaving like a wayward.

The tall body went straight to Wirata and pulled her to hug. He lifted her up until her feet floated off the ground and kissed her cheeks on both the left and right.

"I miss you, sexy."

He whispered with his sparkling eyes and charming smile on his face.

 Wirata put her arms around his neck.

"I thought you were doing shopping. Have you done half the list yet?"

She pretended to ask him. Seeing him having fun and smiling handsomely like this made Wirata smile happily, too.

 "Well, it's very crowded and I am worried about you. Let's go home and do it on the internet instead. Oh, here we are, under a mistletoe."

Stefan said and smiled craftily, pointing up at a mistletoe hanging above their heads in the coffee shop so he took a chance to kiss her lips for a moment.

Ben and James watched the boss and his missing being cozy and sweet together as if there were only two of them here. The bodyguards had to turn to look in other directions to hind their smiles.

James was making dreamy eyes, thinking about Summer's doctor. Ben turned to see his friend daydreaming. He jabbed an elbow into Jame's belly, causing James to startle, and awake. He saw that not just Ben who was looking at him but the boss and Miss Wirata was looking, too.

"Are you miles away, James? You two can do shopping if you want. I and Wirata can wait here."

Stefan said to his men as he told them to buy presents for their loved ones before.

"I have already done mine online, boss. But I think  James is looking for some new bedding set, but he isn't sure about the color and the pattern yet. Right, James?"

Ben threw a ball to his friend. James gave Ben a daggered glare and snarled to say... You are bastard!

"Really? That's cool. Changing for the better for New year. What color are you looking for?"

Stefan also was curious to know so he asked to make the conversation go round.

 James scratched his head and was silent for a minute.

"Um, something like rainbow colors. And I can't find it. As it's Christmas so the red and green are popular at the moment."

James answered and felt a little embarrassed in front of Wirata. He just realized that Summer's doctor liked everything in rainbow colors and anything related to the rainbow!

"You can find a poster of Joseph in Technicolor Dreamcoat to hang on the wall to match with the bedding. I can get you one as a Christmas present."

Ben suggested with his cheeky smile. Wirata was smiling amusingly to see the three big men were discussing about the bedding set and the presents.

They were making jokes around and laughed in relaxing posture. Stefan looked happy and smiled handsomely when he talked about the baby's stuff. He was going to buy a big Christmas sock for his baby to hang in front of the fireplace. The man was overreacting when it came to his future child.

Christmas arrived. Everybody gathered together to celebrate at the penthouse. There was roasted turkey, the missive one that Wirata cooked.

They exchanged presents and did what people did at Christmas. It was a very happy time for Stefan and Wirata to have their families celebrating together like this.

 New Year's Eve came. They were here at the penthouse again. After a nice dinner. They were out at the large terrace watching the spectacular fireworks displayed in the sky.

Stefan stood, cuddling Wirata from behind, putting his chin on her shoulder.

Michael and Jacqueline were standing next to each other with a glass of wine in their hands. Sam had his arm on Sophia's shoulder standing and sipping wine and talking in low tones between them.

John and Wilaiwan were sitting on the chairs and looking up at the sky in a relaxed posture.

"This year has been the best year so far."

Ben said to James while the people were watching the beautiful fireworks. They were standing leaning their backs against the wall sipping the boss's best whiskey.

 "And the wedding to come yet."

James said with a smile. They saw the boss did the rehearsal for the wedding ceremony every day without care to hide. Making them excited for the boss. The speech and everything were repeating in the penthouse when the boss had time.

 "Yesterday he watched video clips about raising children for hours in the office. Now I bet he knows everything about raising a kid up."

James whispered. The two nodded and talked frantically. Their boss is very enthusiastic about being a good father.

"What about your case with Evelyne? Any progress yet? Since the orange juice is ready and the bedding is nice and full of technicolor like that."

Ben teased Jame. Seeing his friend make a still face.  

 "You don't have to put your nose in my personal business and worry about me. Just pay attention to your own stuff. Mine is well taken care of."

James said and lifted the glass to sip. Ben laughed in his throat.

"Really? I am glad to hear that. But let me know if you need my help. Looking at your slow motion I don't know how many more New Year's Eve to count down for you to get your own Eve."

Ben was teasing his slow friend.

"Hey! Have you ever heard the saying...Slow but sure? A good man won't take advantage of the woman he cares for."

 James responded.

 "Wow, since when you become a gentleman?"

Ben pretended to make a shocked look.

"Well, when you meet the right one, you will understand, man. And stop barking. It's time to count down now."

James said. Then the boss was raised his glass up.

"Ready everyone? Let's do it!"

10... 9... 8...7...6...5...4...3...1...

Happy New Year!

Then the boss pulled his missy to kiss to celebrate their new year and more happy moments to come.
