Sonia's Pov

Seems that Dev has a house in every corner of the world so instead of a hotel we're now in yet another luxurious villa.

Dev & I hadn't talked during the flight; I was really upset because this was so sudden and I wasn't a fan of being in Bangkok of all the places, I know he's here for work but he wanted us to have dinner together first so I got ready and was waiting for him.

"Sweetheart, sorry for the wait and by the way you look stunning," he said and I blushed.

"You don't look bad yourself," I said and it was an understatement he looked like a movie star on a magazine cover.

"Trying my best for you, shall we?"
And we walked out hand in hand.

On the way I kept thinking about all of this, I don't know if he has feelings for me, he never says anything but his Actions ..ugh I don't want to think anymore.

Once at the restaurant which was too fancy for Sonia's liking, and once the staff so them they led them to the best table there and welcomed Dev like a king of course.

"What would you like to order sir ?" The waiter asked Dev.

"The usual, Kim you know I come here for it ." Dev said and he nodded

"And for the lady? " he asked but Sonia was still lost in her thoughts.

"Uh um, the same thing he ordered.. "

Once the waiter was gone Sonia sighed.

"What's wrong sweetheart? " he asked casually making Sonia's blood boil.

"Everything! You know everything about me yet I know nothing about u and I don't know, why are we here! U came here for work so do that ."

She was being loud which made some people and staff look at them.

Dev's eyes turned cold, calling one of the staff over and with one word, the fancy hall was empty except for them and a waiter at their service.

"Now, would you tell me where all this is coming from! ?"

"I feel like a prisoner with u, who said I wanted to come to Bangkok in the first place but of course, my opinion doesn't matter Damn," she said

He hit the table starling here

"First of all keep your voice down when you're addressing me sweetheart and secondly, I can leave you there after what happened If anyone dared to steal my goods they would dare to attack the mansion so to keep you safe you had to be with me alright! " He said running a hand through his hair.

Sonia watched him and for the first time, she saw a glance of worry in his eyes.

The waiter came with their orders but Dev didn't touch his food instead he took a cigarette and put it between his lips before lighting it.

"Won't you eat ?, it's your favourite. " Sonia asked feeling bad .

"I lost my appetite, enjoy your meal, please. " he said but she didn't start eating.

He raised his eyebrow threatening but wasn't tense anymore.

and Sonia tried the food and to say that she loved was an understatement.

"DEV, that's so yummy I want to ask the chef for the recipe," she said and he finally smiled.

Once both were back Sonia went to shower, She wanted to relax a bit a glass of wine joined of course.

She thought again, he wants to keep her safe always trying to make time for her regardless of being busy, she decided that she didn't need to hear the three words from him, it doesn't matter she's in love with him and always will be whether he says the words or not.

She got out of the shower and got dressed before going downstairs she expected him to be in the office room but he wasn't.

He went to deal with that guy " Thai Yong ."

Somewhere else Dev had just arrived to what Thai Yong calls his Den .

"Looks who's here, the man who needs no introduction," Tahi said smirking

"You're having a death wish stealing from me ." DEV SAID

Both men were at a round table with many guards in the room.

" I'm just getting my small revenge after what you did to my father, Sir ." Thai said and Dev smiled coldly

"Well, your father was greedy idiot who deserved what came his way and the Same thing would happen to you if I didn't get my money back, Son ." .

Dev's POV

Now people would come and say that I shouldn't have threatened him since I came with just One man by my side but I always have a plan.

" I wouldn't do that if I were u " Thai said and I couldn't help but laugh he's one of those stupid people.

"Kill him!" He ordered but half of the guards amid their guns at him .

And before anyone asks, yes I always have men inside making it easy for me , with money everything is possible .

The hall turned into a battle filled shooting and hands compates smoke , smell of blood filled the air.

At the end the Last men Standing was Dev but of course with a wound in his stomach.

Thai on the other hand was on the ground after he got shoots in his leg .

" you shouldn't have messed with me Tahi , say hi to your father for me ,sure u will meet him in hell ."

DEV SAID and shoot him in the head before leaving leaning on Leo for support and taking all his money back.

At the villa Sonia Was going crazy Leo promised he would keep her posted but he's not answering either that's when she saw both of them entering.

"Leo! What happened. " she asked panicked

"Later Ma'am , I need to make sure sir is okay u will get to know everything. " he said and helped Dev to his room.

A few moments later Dr. Vikram came rushing into the room.

Leo seemed to have manged to stop the bleeding for a bit which saved the doctor some time .

Sonia couldn't stand being in the room so she went outside and let the tears fall freely.

After a few minutes she felt steps behind her so she wiped her tears away and turned around to see Leo.

"Don't worry, he will be okay. " he said

"Thank you for being there with him ." She said grateful.

"it's my job, but of course me and him went through a lot together and became friends along the way, he's a different man and has this way of carrying himself but once you've become dear to him , he wouldn't let anyone near u even if that meant losing his life in the process. " Leo said and Sonia never thought she would hear something like that about dev .

Later when the doctor and everyone left she entered the room and sit near his bed.
