Chapter 178 - The ghost of the past (2) (1/2)
Stefan was in the car back to the hotel. He put his hand in his pocket and frowned when there was no phone in there!
”Holy shit! My phone. I've lost my phone.”
He said furiously.
”Where did you lose it, boss?”
James turned to ask. Stefan shoved a hand in his hair. He felt so frustrated to just realize as he was going to call Wirata to tell her that he was on the way home.
”I think when I was fighting and jumping around. Or it could be in my jacket's pocket. Call Bernardo's men. Ask them to look for it for me, James.”
Stefan told James. James had Murphy's number so he hurried to call.
”What is it?” Murphy's voice came through.
”My boss has lost his phone somewhere in your boss's property. Find it for him, will you?”
James asked. Stefan had noticed that his bodyguards and Bernardo's bodyguards were acting like friends rather than enemies.
”How the hell could I do that?”
Murphy asked and sounded unwilling to do so.
Stefan sent a signal that he would talk to Bernardo.
”Murphy. Is your boss there?”
Stefan asked.
”Yes. He is here. What can I do for you?”
Murphy answered with respect this time as he quite liked Stefan's spirit. It was twice now that the Grand MC boss jumped in to help his boss.
”Let me talk to him for a minute.”
”Sure! just a second, please.”
Murphy said and then walked to Bernardo and handed the phone to the boss who was sitting and thinking about something miles away.
”What?”
Bernardo said into the phone.
”I've lost my phone.”
”And it's your fucking problem. Nothing to do with me. Where did you lose it?”
Bernardo shouted.
”I lost it somewhere, where we were fighting, could be behind the rock or the trees. Find it for me will you? You have my phone number, just ring it and you will see if it makes a noise somewhere.”
”Why the fuck I would do that?” Bernardo asked. It was their style talk to one another like this.
”Because I just safe your arse, dickhead. Just do it. And if you can find it, I'll give you some information about Santo's daughter.”
Stefan baited Bernardo as he could read the bastard's mind through and through. Bernardo paused.
”You have her information?!”
Here came the prey! He was never wrong. Stefan smirked.
”Aha. Let me know when you found it. Then we can talk.”
He said and press the button to cut off the line.
”Son of a bitch!”
Bernardo swore. No way he would go back to that rock to see Stefan's puke! He took out his phone and gave Murphy and Tyson the phone number.
”This is Stefan's number. You two go find it. It could be somewhere around the rock.”
Bernardo told his men. Murphy and Tyson saved the number in their phone and started to ring it to find out the location. Bernardo sipped the whiskey and hoped his bodyguards would find it. He was thinking positively that Stefan would tell him where to find the woman. He was not interested in her or anything, but he just wanted to get his gun back. That was all!

When Stefan returned, he entered the front doors. Pichani saw him so she hurried to walk to him. Stefan stopped his steps at the doors when seeing the woman. James and Ben looked at the boss.
”Take her outside.”
He ordered and turned to walk to the outside again. He waited at a far corner where there were no people walking around.
Stefan could not believe the bitch dared to come here. But it was good as he had not given her what she deserved yet from what she lied to him about Wirata's name.
Pichani's face turned pale when the two tall bodyguards dragged her outside the hotel to the quiet corner.
”What are you doing to me?!”
She yelled and she saw Stefan stood there with his hands in his pockets. His face was dark and his eyes were scary cold. She knew immediately that she was wrong to think he forgot about what she had lied to him and would forget and forgive her easily.
”Hi, honey. I miss you so much.”
She tried to smile sweetly to him and stepped to him, aiming to give him a kiss. But he pushed her away with disgust on his face.
”Why are you here?”
Stefan asked the woman with a cold distant voice.
”I am here for work, shooting for a magazine cover. I am a hot model now, honey. I miss you very much. That's why I am here to see you.”
