Vegas held Venice in his arms as he struggles to pick up the documents he is checking.

“Stop moving, Venice.” He said and remains focus on the given letters that he needs to check.

He will glance at the clock from time to time, wondering if what time Pete will come back. Vegas don’t have a slightest trust on Tan. He was just forced to let Pete meet him when Khun No contacted him, saying that they will be the one to look after Pete.

Maybe he wasn’t wrong to trust Khun at all.

Vegas can only face palm when Venice started crying, moving like a worm on his lap that he cannot continue his work.

Vegas lifted Venice so that they can face each other. The crying Venice stopped.

Now, the two are facing each other, with both eyebrows squinted, eyes are narrowed as if they are judging each other’s existence.

“Do you want milk?” Vegas asked calmly.

The corner of his lips rose when he saw Venice’s rolled his eyes.

It is like seeing his own behavior being mirrored by this kid.

“You should appreciate me more. My arms are hurting.” Vegas complained as he places Venice in the stroller first.

Damn, he cursed when he felt his arms and back aching and almost getting numb. He has been carrying Venice for the whole day. Now he imagines what Pete feels when he is the one taking care of Venice almost every day.

Pete probably has weak bones now since Venice is heavy.

On the table where files are usually placed, it was replaced by a can of milk and a feeding bottle filled with water.

“How many scoops is this?”

For Vegas, he wanted to give up in taking care of Venice. Aside from that baby is really heavy, he gets tired making milk for him. Sometimes, Venice also keeps stealing Pete’s attention from him. That pissed him off.

Who would imagine that a mafia will be jelly because of a baby and will found himself inside the office, making some milk like a good househusband?

“Sometimes, I want to give you to your own mother.” Vegas commented and gave the bottle for Venice to drink.

He actually didn’t mean that. It’s just Venice was the only person who can pull out the childishness in his body without doing anything.

One good thing about Venice is he rarely cries. He will just be sitting there inside his stroller and would look at Vegas with those judging eyes.

Venice is probably calculating all his actions and already predicting when and how he should cry in case they will fight again for Pete’s attention.

“Khun Vegas.” Nop entered the office. “A client is here. There will be an urgent meeting.”

Vegas stare at Venice. He cannot leave him here alone but he cannot also bring Venice with him in the meeting. Pete has already told him to always hold Venice and guard him.

“Is it really urgent? Tell them to return tomorrow.” Vegas coldly said and proceed to check if Venice is still drinking.

“I think it’s urgent, Phi Vegas. The clients came from Singapore and they just came here for a short period of time.” Nop exclaimed and waved a little hi to Venice.

Vegas doesn’t have any choice then. He will just be urgent and finish the meeting as soon as possible.

“Watch over, Venice.” Vegas instructed and fixed his necktie. “If Pete came back then tell him that I’m on a meeting.”

“Yes, Khun Vegas.”

Before leaving, he looks at Nop with such cold threatening eyes. “If you failed to keep an eye on Venice, I will not hesitate to kill you.”

“Yes, Khun Vegas.”

The meeting went for 25 minutes that Vegas almost wanted to cut their tongues to stop talking. He didn’t even bother to accompany them outside and only sent a few bodyguards to be with them.

Vegas hurriedly went back to his office. He is afraid that Pete came back earlier than him and would find that he is not the one looking after Venice.

When he entered the office, he couldn’t see a single trace of Venice and Nop.

“Venice?” Vegas called and checks if he’s in the stroller.

Fucking shit!

“Nop!” Vegas loudly called Nop’s name and went outside the office with those murderous eyes.

“Where is Nop?” Vegas asked on the bodyguards he saw and held his collar.

“I-I didn’t see him, Khun Vegas.”

“Fuck!” Vegas cursed and immediately punched the guy he just asked.

There are two emotions he can already feel right now; he is nervous that Venice might be abducted and two, if Pete found out about this then it will also be the end of his life.

“Where the hell is Nop?!”

He didn’t even care if everybody was staring at him. The bodyguards started to find Nop and Venice around.

“Khun Vegas!” Another bodyguard approached him. “We found them.”

Vegas ran and went to his men who had a copy of the surveillance video. The latest video was caught.

He gritted his teeth and clenched his jaw when he saw what happened.

This is probably one of the worst kinds of betrayal that no one can forgive.

In the video, Nop went outside his office- carrying a medium sized box that probably those once that can be found in his office. Nop normally pass through the bodyguard that no one even noticed that someone is inside the box.

The next clip was taken from the outside. A car near the parking lot was already waiting for Nop to come.

Vegas can clearly see Khun Pim went outside and open the box.

“I am going to kill you!” Vegas roared and punch the wall with his fist.

Venice was inside the box and Nop handed him to Khun Pim. After all this time, Nop is part of the plan and chose to work with Khun Pim.

For some reason, Vegas thought of the fact that Nop once worked for Khun Pim when she was still at the mansion.

“Chase after them!” Vegas ordered.

“They are probably still in this area! Hurry up!”

Vegas went back to his office and there he saw a masking tape on the floor. He was sure that Nop used it to silence Venice.

Vegas is already familiar with the behavior of Venice. It was only him, Macau and Pete whom he trusted. If there will be other people, Venice will cry loudly.

After calling Pete, Vegas can only pray. He knew what will happen once Pete arrived.

Vegas waited for Pete on the first floor, walking back in forth as his men keeps him updated if they finally track the location or not. Vegas pulled his hair in so much frustration.

“Vegas!” He heard Pete’s voice calling his name.

Pete was followed by Khun No, Arm, Pol and even Khun Tan who’s now shaking his head.

“Where’s Venice?” Pete angrily asked and went to Vegas’ direction.

Those who were looking can only open their mouth when Pete suddenly punches Vegas.

“Where is Venice?!” Pete asked again and this time, he held the collar of Vegas’ shirt. “I told you to look after him! Why didn't you listen and do what I said?!”

“Pete…ouch!” Vegas shouted when Pete slapped his chest and arms nonstop. “Nop took Venice! He’s with Khun Pim!” Vegas said as he continues defending his body from the strong slaps he is receiving.

“Stop giving me that excuse! What do you think will happen if she’s with his crazy mother, huh? Really?! Damn you, Vegas!” Pete shouted that it almost reach all of the floors.

“Pete, calm down.”

How ironic is it that it was Khun No who just requested Pete to calm down.

Khun No reach for Pete and was assisted by Arm and Pol to take Pete away from Vegas.

“If anything happens to my son, I’m going to kill you, Vegas! Mark my words!” Pete still angrily said as he tries to punch Vegas once again.

Even Khun No who can still say anything stupid in this kind of worrying situation just chose to close his mouth.

“Pete!” Khun No shouted. “You have to calm down!”

They may be expecting that Pete will listen but there is also one thing they should know.

Once Pete is mad, he will never listen to anyone.

And that is the most dangerous part. If there will be ten scariest scenarios, a mad Pete will definitely ranked one.

“You do not understand!” Pete shouted back. “I’m going to find Venice and you!” He stares at Vegas. "I will not forgive you if anything happens to him."

Vegas just kept quiet because he doesn’t want to mess with an angry Pete. The last time Pete got mad at him is when he Pete escaped his secret room.

Vegas saw how Pete didn’t hesitate to smash the chain on his hands until it bleeds. No wonder, he is already expecting another dangerous thing that Pete will do.

“If Venice will be with Khun Pim… I am assuring you, Vegas…I will not hesitate to leave you.”

Vegas jaw dropped. No! That’s not going to happen!

“Prepare the cars now!” Vegas can already feel the adrenaline rush through his body when he heard Pete said that. “Khun, go with us and you, Tan. Tell us where are the possible location.”

Khun Tan nodded and Khun No also orders Arm and Pol to prepare everything.

Vegas went nearer to Pete and even hesitated if he should approach him or not.

Damn. He’s really scary when he’s mad.

“We will get Venice back.” Vegas said almost whispering.

Pete didn’t even glance at him. He only saw Pete holding his gun.

“I will kill that bitch.”
