Chapter 271 - NOT READY TO HAVE A BABY

Cayenne had a happy lunch with her lovely guests. However, during the whole time they spent together, she noticed that Brown seldomly spoke. He took pictures of Riley and Jade at the garden with happy smiles. He also took another picture with all of them but the smile on his lips would be gone after few seconds.

After lunch, Jillyanna, Riley and Jade were staying in the living room, looking at the photo album of Cayenne and her family. There were plenty of pictures with Stefan as well.

"I'll go out for a while." Cayenne said and went to the front porch were Brown was sitting on the terrace. "Are you alright? You seemed to space out a lot of time."

Brown took a deep breath while fiddling with his fingers. "I'm just a bit worried for Matt. He had been away for a week now with no news. I don't know if he's alright or not."

"Speaking of, you've always been together and I heard that you also took missions together. How come you're being separated now?"

"The mission is a lot tougher this time and he requested that I don't come. He didn't want to be distracted during the mission. And I understand his point, because I'd feel the same. Whenever we're on a mission, I keep thinking of protecting him and he would think of protecting me. We'll be distracted."

Cayenne nodded her head in agreement. "It's indeed tough to be on the same mission together but it's also a way of assurance that the person you love is by your side, safe and sound. But you have to believe in him. You've been taking missions together. I'm sure he can protect himself. Just wait for him to come home. Maybe tomorrow or the day after tomorrow, he'd be back in your arms once again."

"Thank you, Yen. I'll wait for him."

"That's good. Let's go back inside." Cayenne brought Brown inside and this time, he looked a lot better.

Riley also smiled when he saw the sudden change in Brown's mood. They've been trying to cheer him up for three days now but he still looked miserable without any updates on Valkyrie. So, they decided to bring him to Cayenne, hoping that he'd feel fine in a different environment.

After staying for almost three hours, Jillyanna and her family left. They still planned to go to Venus Plaza and meet with some friends as well. It was also good for Cayenne since she needed to start making cookies for Stefan's family.

While she was busy preparing the ingredients with the help of her husband, someone was patiently waiting for Stefan to come out of Clover Hotel and another one was waiting for him to come out from his main office.

They're the people that Arthur hired to follow Stefan because he believed that the man will go to Cayenne. They waited for him early in the afternoon but only saw his secretary coming out from the main company. He left the company and came back after an hour.

They waited and waited to no avail.

"Sir, the target didn't show up in Clover Hotel." The man who's waiting for Stefan in the basement reported to Arthur.

"Sir, the target didn't show up in his company today. I only saw his secretary early this afternoon." Reported by the man stationed in the main company.

"Just continue waiting. He will show up eventually." Arthur replied to their messages and threw his phone on his bed. Ever since his brother left, their businesses were facing lots of troubles and he didn't have any idea how to take care of them. His mother became even more grumpy and she continued to blame Cole even though the man left their house a long time ago.

It wasn't also until last week that he found where Cole worked. He was hired to become a manager in one of Stefan's resorts and the salary was even higher compared to how much he earned from their own business. He poured so much effort to make their business prosper but their mother didn't know how to appreciate him. Now, everything's falling down the drain.

Arthur wanted to retaliate to Stefan for taking his brother away. This gives him the reason to take Cayenne away from him. A plan that would bring an end to his whole family excluding Cole's family. The moment he severe his ties from them, Stefan no longer hold any grudge to the man. In fact, he was thankful for his brilliant management that his resort prospered even more. He also knew how to treat his employees accordingly which was why Stefan didn't receive any report of someone quitting from Clover Seaside Resort for the past two months.

Usually, one or two will quit every month because of the previous management but after hiring Cole, everything went well. His mother didn't know which was the real gem among her sons. It was because of her blindness that Stefan got so much benefits.

Around five in the afternoon, Cayenne and Stefan arrived in the Dumrique's family villa. They planned to stay for an afternoon teatime but since they arrived later than planned, they decided to stay for dinner instead. Ferdinand was elated with their decision and told the chef to cook a lot of dishes for Stefan and Cayenne. They also made sure that none of the dishes contains ingredients which Stefan was allergic to.

"Grandpa, we made cookies for you. These should be for an afternoon teatime but we arrived late." Cayenne gave the man the box she was holding with a faint smile on her lips.

"Don't think too much about me. I only want to have a great-grandchild to accompany me when I'm bored." Ferdinand replied with a sly smile. However, he earned a sharp glare from Stefan. He coughed to clear his throat and added, "But there's no need to hurry. Just take your time."

Cayenne nodded her head at him and turned to Stefan with a smile on her lips but her eyes were telling him to behave. After what happened to them, she wasn't ready to give herself to him yet. So, having a baby was still far from being granted.
