Santo led Stefan and Wirata to the VIP table he had prepared for the powerful man with money. There were waiters walking to serve around with food and drinks. After sitting down, Stefan chose to drink the best wine that Santo had offered.
"Orange juice for her, please."
He ordered orange juice for her. Wirata did not mind. She really did not care about food when attending a party because most of the food was just snacks, not filling the stomach anyway.
Tonight, Santo had invited Bernardo as well. Because Santo was a regular at the Grand Costa casino. Therefore he was hoping to make friends with the owner of the Grand Costa. Who knew, in the future, he might need to use friendly credit for payment!
But at the moment, Santo's biggest creditor was Stefan, so the money mogul was his main target to lure to see his youngest daughter for tonight.
Twenty-seven-year-old Sara O'Neal flew from LA yesterday to attend the party of her sister's. The beautiful model was wearing a sexy black strapless evening dress, contrasting with her white milky skin. Her eyes were looking at the VIP table where Stefan Mackenzie was sitting and looking so handsome and powerful as always.
Stefan was her first love. Her father sent Sara to sleep with him when she was twenty-three years old which was four years ago. Sara was a stubborn person but at that time she obeyed her father because she had a crush on Stefan. But he never looked back at her after sleeping with her once.
Sara had tried to get close to him in the beginning, but she could not get past his bodyguards. He was not a man who people had access to easily.
Now, he was sitting with a stunning Asian lady. He was leaning forward to whisper something to her ears. His sharp blue eyes never left that woman's face.
Sara sighed deeply. She knew her father's plan for this party. He wanted to show Amiya to Stefan, planning to send Amiya to the mouth of the tiger king. Sara felt sorry for her sister and felt uncomfortable inside.
The day before she decided to tell the truth to Amiya while they organized this event together. Sara did not want Amiya to be like her. Looking at the man who had made her heart flutter. He was not stupid to be a victim of her father. Stefan Mackenzie always chose his own fate and paths, his stamina spoke out clearly, she was not mistaken.
"I'd like to introduce my youngest daughter to you, Stefan. Amiya has just graduated from England. "
Santo said to Stefan after sitting down and talking about his business for a short while. Stefan only nodded slightly. Santo made an excuse to go to bring his youngest daughter to introduce to him.
Stefan glanced at the beautiful face of the person sitting next to him. She was looking away. The big hand reached and grabbed her soft hand to hold and squeezed it gently.
"Are you okay? Is the party too boring for you?"
He asked with concern in his voice. Wirata turned to look and smiled a little before shaking her head. But Stefan knew that she lied. She did not usually say lies, instead, she would throw her direct sharp words at him without considering. Now she looked like her mind was miles away and the event could not hold her interest.
"If you get bored, just let me know. I will take you home."
He said. The warm hand squeezed her hand gently now and again and refused to let go.
"I would like to go to the bathroom for a moment. "
She said softly.
"I will take you."
Stefan responded and prepared to get up but Wirata quickly grabbed his arm.
"It's okay. I can go by myself."
She said. She noticed that there were people who wanted to come to talk to him. Probably, it was about business.
Stefan nodded because he thought she might want to be by herself for ten minutes and he should let her.
"Let Ben follow you, just in case."
The voice said.
"In case of what? I won't get lost." She said.
"I don't trust people and I don't want anybody to look at you. I haven't had a gun with me tonight."
He said with a serious face. Wirata gasped and when she saw his eyes were twinkling she realized that he was joking. She blushed to see his deep blue eyes looking at her profoundly for a minute.
Stefan sent a signal to Ben, who was standing behind the table. Ben quickly came forward and listened to the boss's request. He then walked with Wirata to the restroom. Some businessmen came to talk to Stefan during the time Wirata was gone.
"Hello, Stefan."
The woman's voice greeted him from the back. Stefan turned to look. Her face tickled his memory that he used to see her before but he could not remember where and when.
"Hello. Have we met before?"
He asked openly. As a result, Sara felt disappointed deep in her heart. He could not remember her.
"I am Sara O'neal. the eldest daughter, and yes, we have met before."
Sara answered. She was quite popular as a fashion model. But he only nodded to acknowledge just to be polite. His eyes when looking at her were blank with no interest. And he still did not give any sign of recognizing her.
Sara now understood and accepted the truth with disappointment inside her heart that the man she had been obsessed with for a long time did not really see her in his eyes.
"I hope you enjoy the party."
She said to him with a smile and walked to other guests.
Stefan was looking at the entrance and glanced at the time. She should come back by now. He thought if he did not see her walking back in the room in five minutes, he would go out to see her in the restroom.
At the far corner, Santo noticed Stefan's attitude towards Sara. At first, he had hoped that the godfather would be interested in Sara again. But Santo had to give up the hope, it was not going the way he wished.
So it was about time to bring Amiya out here. He rang his youngest daughter immediately. Hoping she had put on the beautiful dress he prepared for her and made herself ready to come down to see Stefan Mackenzie.
