188 Uncovering the secre

Tony was getting worried that Veronica might burn out herself. Though she's still on training, it's already eleven in the evening and she hasn't come home so he drive to the company building and found her there still working on her own office.

"V, let's go home." He said.

"Just a moment."

"How many hours have been sitting there?"

Veronica stop for a while and look up at him. He bent out and kisses her forehead.

"Let's go home."

"Okay." She saved her work and pick up few things. Then she turn off the computer. Tony hold her as they went to the parking lot.

He drove the car back to her unit and carried her until there. She's already asleep, tired from work. He put her down on bed and help her remove her clothes. She open her eyes and kisses him.

"Sleep, I'll take care of you."

Veronica did closed her eyes for her to sleep back. After Tony is down with sponge bathing her, he take a warm shower. He got out from the bathroom and heard her phone ringing. He search for it on her purse. On the phone screen is an I.D caller, yellow alert. He touch it with his thumb to answer it but it vibrates and didn't accept his finger print.

Veronica sat up and she immediately took it away from him. She answer it and put it on her ear as she listen carefully.

"What's that?" He asked.

She hang up and put the phone on the side table near her. She didn't answer him as she lay down.

"V, what is it?" He ask again.

"I'm tired." She mutter.

Tony ignore it for a while and lay down with her. He pull her into his arms and cuddle her hair. She's just tired. So there's no energy for both of them to argue. And what's there to argue? It's just a call. But he wanted to know everything about her.

They both woke up eight in the morning and Tony drive her to her office. While he was driving, she was talking to someone over the phone and she is listening carefully. He even saw a glimpse of her smirk. He drop her off and she gave him a passionate kiss.

"Don't work yourself out, I love you." He mutter and kiss her again and again.

"You too." She smile. It looks like she's blooming.

Tony work as usual and then he remind her about them going to beach their getaway. But since he was texted by his friends that he have prepared a party for him, he just couldn't ignore them so he texted her. It's his birthday and he wanted to spend it with her.

Veronica calls and tell him that she'll be with him then. He was excited that they could leave after the little party that his friends prepare for him. He get off from work early since Gabriel give him three days birthday vacation.

Tony enter on the open air pool party that his friends settled for him. What he did not know was Veronica was on the same venue talking with investors. His friends prepare a special gift after he blow the candle from the cake.

"Where's your fiancée?"

"She's on her way." He told as he check on his phone.

His friends pull him in front of the big box and everyone cheers. He thought that it was something—and they let him pull the red tie. He was surprise when two women almost nude came out and strode toward him and caress him all over his body.

"This is a bachelor's party!" Someone scream.

"Wait!" He hands up not trying touch any of them. Veronica is going to kill him.

On the other hand, Veronica was on the balcony watching his friends teasing him with two women almost wearing nothing. She scoff and waited for Sabrina's instruction as she strode down the stairs toward him. She's wearing a red sexy dress for her lover. The people who recognize her stepped back as they give him a way as a queen.

Tony's eyes widens when he saw Veronica—he wasn't enjoying those women's touch and she cross her arms.

"Baby!" he said aloud and it seemed like everyone quieted down. Even those women stop from harassing him and they look at Veronica. Her charisma isn't something to look down on. They look on their selves as they stepped back.

Veronica take few steps closer to him and pull his tie and kiss his lips.

"Happy birthday, playboy." She said sexily. It was the most sensual greeting he ever receive in his life. Tony wrapped his arms around her and kiss her back passionately. "I'll be off somewhere, you enjoy your party…"

"We have to leave to Surigao." He pouted.

"I know. Enjoy and don't fuck anyone, okay?"

"But—"

"I won't take long." She kisses him and put a box on his coat. He hold her hand to stop her from leaving. "Give me an hour."

He nodded. She face the man who pushes Tony to have those to women and said on his ear in very intimidating way.

"Once you do something bad to my man—I'm going to make sure that your dick wouldn't meet anyone else." She murmur and the man gulp and she left.

Tony did enjoy a little but he keep looking around and found a familiar figure in black suit. It was Veronica if he wasn't mistaken. He hasn't drink anything yet and he barrow one of his friend's motorbike and follow her.

He was led to something very creepy. He call out his men for few backup and he almost forgot the box on his coat. He pull it out and found a Rolex the latest and the expensive one. Veronica did know his birthday. He put it on the car compartment and found a woman in suit above the building. He just see it. It's a secluded building and the woman has wires as she climb up expertly.

He was sure that it was Veronica. Someone shot her but she dodge it and took her gun with one hand and fire it from where it came from and he use his binocular as he saw the sniper was shot right into his skull.

He was so surprise. Veronica is in danger. He has to go there.

"Sir, this is an operation of EPUA we can't go there." his man said. "I got a call from boss." He explained briefly.

"But that woman—" He stammer. "No."

"Sir, I beg you."

Tony change his clothes so he could sprint there and save his woman.
