Chapter 641: DANGER UP AHEAD I
Stefan and Cayenne decided to leave the party and go home. Since they didn’t excuse themselves properly, Stefan called Winter to tell her about their sudden disappearance. He was even teased about it because he couldn’t just keep his hands off from his wife even for a little while.
By the time they arrived home, it was already midnight and Cayenne thought she’d be able to take a shower right after getting home. She didn’t expect that there’d be another round inside the shower room.
“Nggh...Just how...just how hungry are you?” She asked between moans with her hands on the wall, supporting herself from the attacks of her husband. If Stefan wasn’t holding her waist, she would have fallen on the cold floor already.
Stefan leaned on her, pressing his chest on her back as he whispered sweet nothing and retaliation close to her ears. “Who do you think starved me the past few days?” he murmured as he thrusted himself behind her. He impaled himself on her, feeling her warmth clinging to him as he pulled her face to him and kissed her lips. “Ayen.” He whispered with his eyes closed in ecstasy.
Cayenne felt that he was close already and when she tightened herself around him, it didn’t take long for him to release everything that he saved up to this day. To her dismay, Stefan had protection on.
“Tsk! So hateful.” She snickered while watching him remove the condom from his length. “Bath me. Dry my hair and tuck me in to sleep.”
“Yes, ma’am.”
.....
By the time they finally settled to sleep, it was already past two in the morning. Stefan remembered that it was the same day of the island raid. He decided to open his email for any update but if he knew it would only bring him bad news, he wouldn’t do it and just cuddle with his wife to sleep.
Now that he did, sleep was slowly jogging away from him.

“There’s an urgent matter that needs my attention. I’ll sleep during the day instead. I’ll just finish this. You go to sleep first.”
“O-okay.”
Not wanting to disturb his wife, Stefan went to the study room and started messaging Tristan. They needed to deal with this as soon as they can. There’s Simon and the Amir family as well. Just thinking about the impact of her death to the child, Stefan felt an oncoming headache. He felt so bad for Monique that she has to lose her mother at the very young age.
Stefan stayed there without minding the time. He planned his next move and thought of solutions for any possible scenarios. He knew that they just attended a grand wedding but still, he decided to tell Travis about what happened. After all, Denise was Monique’s mother, and this little girl will soon become one of their family.
In the morning, Cayenne woke up with an empty space beside her. She checked her phone and found it was past nine in already. There was also a small note that Stefan left on her drawer, telling her that he left to meet Simon and that he’ll directly go to the company for an urgent business matter.
Realizing that she was left alone again, Cayenne couldn’t stop herself but sigh. ‘I must be in danger again.’ She thought with so much disappointment of herself. She felt that she brings nothing but worry to her husband and her family. When it comes to his business empire, Stefan was very lax and has so much time to spare for her. When it’s about her welfare and security, he’d be very busy and would spare no effort just to make sure that she’d live happily. “Am I really worthy of being his wife?”
Cayenne shook her head to dismiss this depressing question before going to the bathroom to shower.
Meanwhile, Stefan was sitting across Simon and the man looked pale and confused. He couldn’t tell what he was feeling while looking at the image of his daughter’s mother.
In fact, Simon didn’t know what to feel as well. Even though he worked with Denise in the past for school projects and activities, he wouldn’t consider them close. Most of his memories with her were full of arguments. Their ideologies differ and they would snap at each other for every little thing. He couldn’t imagine how she likes him in the past.
Right now, all he could think was his daughter’s feeling if she learns the truth. “What are your plans?” Simon asked since he could do nothing behind bar. He could only follow their plan knowing that Jillyanna will also look into this matter. If there’s anyone he trusts, that’s Jillyanna. And since she trusted Stefan, he will go along with him.
“Denise died in an accident.” Stefan stated. “The details will be released using a fake news.” Since she wanted to be a good mother who works hard for her child, Stefan will make it so. That’s the least he can do for someone who tried stopping her boss for causing harm to Cayenne and other people in regional city jail.
“What about the culprit? Have your men caught him?”
Stefan was just about to answer when he saw Napoleone being escorted by three police officers with a handcuff on his wrists. “Yo! My amazing nephew. I hope your wife is doing well.” Napoleone shouted, making sure that Stefan would hear his words before walking away with maniacal laughter.
Stefan gritted his teeth and clenched his fists in anger. He wrapped up his discussion with Simon and left the station in a hurry. He even saw Napoleone outside who was ushered to a patrol car but he didn’t linger around and left.
Along with his bodyguards, he went to his company with indescribable face. It was Sunday so there weren’t many people inside the building. Tristan will be back and they needed to talk about their plans. Elena was there as well. Even if she won’t admit it, she was actually waiting for her subordinate to come back as well.
“Boss, you’re here.”
“Hn. I’ll discuss something with Tristan later on.”
“Will that take long?”
“I’m not really sure. Why?”
“Well...uh...boss, you have not forgotten the event tonight, right?”
“Event? What event?”
Elena didn’t know whether she should add more stress to him or just keep quiet about it. However, she knew that the event is very important to all employees and the business partners as well. “We will have the year-end party tonight boss.”
“Oh!” Stefan pinched the space between his eyebrows and closed his eyes for a moment. “I’ll be there.”

“I’m not really sure if I’d allow her to come with me. I’m worried that something would happen to her. Anyway, I’ll be in my office. Can you bring me a cup of coffee?”
“Right away sir.” Elena immediately excused herself and went to the pantry. She took a deep breath and sigh while looking for his cup and spoon. She could clearly tell that Stefan hadn’t sleep since last night. “Miss Yen must be worried for him.”
And speaking of Cayenne, she was on her way to his company when she received his message telling her not to go out of the house until he comes home to fetch her. Instead of typing her message, Cayenne gave him a call instead. “I’m already outside the house. In fact, I’m bringing you food for lunch. Shall I go back home?”
“Who’s with you?”
“I have Kyle sitting beside me. Two bodyguards are in the same car as me. There’s another four ahead of us and six are tailing us.” Cayenne looked outside the window and saw her own worried expression. “I’ll be fine.”
Stefan was overly cautious for her safety and he has many reasons to do so. Just thinking that something bad will happen to her again, his heart felt like it was being ripped apart. He couldn’t just imagine himself living without her. “Ayen, don’t stop anywhere.”
“Yes, sir. In fact, we’re very close to the company now. I’ll see you soon. Love lots.”
“I love you, my dear wife.”
When Cayenne got off the car and went inside the building, not so far from Stefan’s company, another person parked his car as well. With him, two other men were boarding the vehicle. “Boss, is that the woman?”
“Yes, that’s her. I heard that there’s a year – end party for his employees. I am sure that they will attend it. Find a way to get inside the venue and slip this drug on her food or drinks.”
“Yes boss.”
“Don’t disappoint me.”
