Chapter 674: WHOSE PLAN WILL OUTWIT WHO?

Stefan contacted the university administrator and explained the current situation to him that involves the welfare of his wife. With his money as well as the donations that Reuben provided, the head of the school agreed to his request with one condition – they needed to make sure that no innocent students will be involved in this war against Napoleone. If something happens and the students get hurt, Stefan will be held responsible for their lives.

Of course, Stefan has made his preparations, too. So, when classed resume, Cayenne wasn’t that worried. At least, that was how she appeared in front of her husband.

While Napoleone was on the run, Cayenne’s family continued to stay in Hacienda Amore. At the same time, Stefan had this feeling that Napoleone has information of Cayenne’s brothers and to counter his knowledge, Stefan has contacted Leon again, the taxi driver who drives Cayenne around when she was still an employee to his hotel. This time, he was responsible for sending Luiz and Kyle to their respective university.

“Are you sure this would work?” Cayenne asked while picking up her bag and other school materials. “I thought my plan was better.”

“Your plan was to bait him and no, I won’t agree to that ever.” Stefan answered resolutely.

Few days ago, Cayenne mentioned to him the plan that she thought about which uses her as the bait. How could he agree to that? Even if he dies, he will haunt everyone who will hurt his wife. There’s no way. It’s impossible for him to agree to her this time. Thankfully, Cayenne didn’t argue with him.

“But, do you really believe that he’s after me? I mean, yeah...that’s the biggest possibility but that could be a distraction as well. For all we know, he might have other plans. Like ruining your business or hurting your parents or your maternal relatives. Your grandma just recovered and Napoleone could use them to retaliate against you.”

.....

“You have a point in that matter. As for my father and grandfather, they have prepared themselves already and they are ready if that man chooses to fight them. As for my maternal relatives, I have asked the guards of the subdivision to be vigilant. I also added our own men to check the people who visit the subdivision. They will report anyone who will come suspicious to them so that Tristan could check.”

“Tristan’s work has doubled again.” Cayenne commented with a sigh. “I hope I can do something to help.”

“If you can relax for me and focus on your studies, it will be of great help to me. I just want you to be happy darling.” Stefan caressed her face and look into her eyes. “You matter so much to me and I will be at ease as long as you are fine.”

Cayenne knew that. As much as she cared for her husband, Stefan also feels the same.

Her class starts at 8:00 in the morning and when she arrived, she saw some of her classmates at the gate. Normally, Stefan would have dropped her off in front of the gate but with the current situation, he drove into the campus and parked his car at the designated parking lot.

Instead of using one of his expensive and high-end cars, Stefan borrowed his bodyguard’s car. It was a blue Honda Civic Type-R that Martin bought from his savings. Since his wife needed to drive their daughter to school, Stefan lent him one of his Mercedes-Benz.

Stefan outside the car first and looked around while Cayenne was getting her things from the back seat. After making sure that his guard didn’t find anyone suspicious, he opened the door for her and Cayenne stepped out with a faint smile on her face.

“Call me if something comes up. Don’t bottle up everything just because you are a man. I don’t mind having a chatty husband.” Cayenne stated as she closed the door behind her. “I brought the pen that Shein gave me and I also have the pair of earrings that Jade gifted me. If it can help you relax, you can just monitor me.”

“I’d be happy to do that. Anyway, I will be staying somewhere nearby just in case.” Stefan checked his watch and saw that she only has few minutes left before her class starts. “Go and enjoy your day.” He added before placing a gentle kiss on her forehead. “I’ll be watching over you.”

“I love you, hon.” Cayenne kissed his mouth and smiled. “Don’t worry too much. Everything will be fine.” She said and rubbed his arms. “I’ll be watching over you as well. Bye.”

He wanted to ask what she meant by that but Cayenne escaped hurriedly after throwing a playful wink at him. One of her bodyguards took her books and other school materials until she was left with her hand bag which made it easier for her to move around.

With ten burly men surrounding her, Cayenne received the attention of so many students. They knew her already and it was no longer a discovery to them that she was surrounded with so many bodyguards. After all, she’s the wife to one of the richest men in the city. It’s also known that Stefan cares about her so much.

What they didn’t know was that, aside from these men, Stefan has placed more guards for her inside the campus. They were placed in different fields to avoid suspicions from other people and Cayenne didn’t even know some of them.

When she was finally out of their sight, Stefan got inside his car and left. The head of the bodyguard following Stefan and Cayenne touched his earpiece and ordered his men to get ready. “Madam is already inside the campus. Get into position and make sure that no stranger gets too close to her. We’ll be leaving with the boss now.”

“Got it.”

And Cayenne’s not-so-normal life in school has begun.

The plan was to confuse Napoleone of her schedule. Stefan wanted her to attend her classes alternately. Sometimes, she’ll go to school and some other time, she will stay at home and join the class via zoom. Sometimes, she’d go in the morning or otherwise, she’d attend in the afternoon. She can’t have a permanent routine as long as Napoleone lurks around them.

“Yen!” Noah called out when he saw Cayenne walking towards their class with several men surrounding her. They looked so intimidating and they looked even scarier with their dark shades on since you cannot see their expression. You don’t really know if they were looking at you or not. “It’s good to see you again.” Noah stated as he got closer to her.

He visited Cayenne’s home several times in the past along with Faith and the bodyguards have seen him as well. Therefore, they allowed him to approach Cayenne without any interference.

“It’s nice to see you, too. Where’s Faith?”

“Professor Yang called for her.”

The two of them went inside the classroom and the bodyguard who was holding Cayenne’s things also followed them. Her classmates looked at them but could only sigh at her fortune. After she settled down on her seat, the bodyguard went out and like the rest of the men, he stood outside the classroom while observing the surroundings with stoic expression.

***

Napoleone was sitting on a worn-out couch while staring at the big wooden board in front of him which takes up almost half the size of the wall. Plastered on the board were pictures and diagram with some stickers and notes posted on it. It looked messy with lots of scribbles but what was striking on this board was the pictures of Cayenne and Dominic which were pinned using a Swiss knife.

Cayenne holds the top spot that Stefan values the most and next to that spot was Cayenne’s family which was followed by the Sugo family. Then, there’s Ferdinand and Magnus which was followed by the notes that contained properties and assets. Napoleone studied Stefan for a long time and he knew that he has change.

If it was two years ago, he’s confident to say that Stefan values his wealth more than anything and anyone else. Now that Cayenne showed up in his life, he knew that the order was reversed.

At first, he planned taking Luiz or Kyle’s life since they were very important to Cayenne but he realized that the impact wouldn’t be the same. Thus, he decided to go for Cayenne’s life instead. As for Dominic, he was chosen for looking so similar to Stefan. Others may have not noticed it but Dominic was strikingly identical to Stefan when he was a teenager. Of course, not many people paid attention to Stefan during those times because he wasn’t known back then.

With his detailed plan in front of him and the order of execution, Napoleone drank his beer happily. “Since I’m bound to stay in hell, I might as well bring a lot of people along with me. It would be merrier that way.” He grinned at his words and stood up from his seat. He didn’t care if he’d use up all his fortune. As long as he deals Stefan a great damage and pain, he will be satisfied.
