Chapter 166: STEFAN'S GETTING HIS REWARD

"Are we going somewhere?" Cayenne asked while rubbing her eyes. She was still groggy and sleepy but she needed to get up and give him some space.

"Do you have any preferred restaurant or any dish that you crave?" Stefan questioned with gentle gaze as he slides down his fingers through her hair and rubbed her temple with his other hand.

When she finally cleared her disoriented brain, and realized what he was asking, Cayenne shook her head. "I don't want to go out and eat. Can we just order something and eat here?"

"Let's do that, then." He replied to her indulgently and pulled out his phone. "What dish do you want to eat this time?"

"I'm not picky so, just order anything you like and something you don't have allergy."

"Ah? You know my allergy?"

"Duh? I've been paying attention to you. I know that you've been taking medicines just so you can eat the dishes I made even though there some ingredients that you're allergic to. The eggplant was just one of the vegetables that you can't eat."

Stefan was stunned for a moment. He never expected that Cayenne would be paying attention to him. He was wondering how she knew that he was taking meds, though. "I don't think I showed you my medicine before and I didn't leave my personal stuff in the medicine box or in the cabinet inside the shower room. How did you know I was taking meds?"

"There was a time when you bought new stocks of our first aid medical supplies.  You forgot to throw the receipt and I happened to read it. I may not be very familiar with medicine but I know the medicines for allergic reactions because we bought different types of them when Kyle had his first attack of allergy from peanuts." Stefan could only smile helplessly at her. He was lost for words. "So, let's just have everything that you can eat. Your safety is more important than my cravings."

"No, your craving is more important." Stefan retorted back at her.

"Why is it important? It's not like I'm pregnant that I need to satisfy my cravings." Cayenne reasoned out. "Just order your favorites."

"Okay. If you say so." Stefan responded Cayenne. "Don't blame me if it is not to your liking."

"I don't think I will be against your taste."

Watching the two of them, Chris wanted to roll his eyes at them. If he was a woman, he would've done it already. "Ahem!" he coughed to get their attention, letting them know that a single ghost was still around the office. "You can buy both of your favorites. I don't think that's a problem."

"Well, let's have Chris order our food. He knows what we like already." Stefan suggested in which Cayenne agreed. He turned to Chris and told him to buy lunch for the three of them.

"Tsk! You just want to bully the single dog." Chris mumbled with his upper lips hooked into a smile. "I'll be back soon." He headed out of the office to buy food using his own phone and had it delivered to their company.

Meanwhile, Cayenne received a message from Kath. She asked her for a favor and now, Kyle's girlfriend has arrived and was waiting for her at the café across the company.

"Uhm…can I go out for a while?" Cayenne told Stefan after reading the message from Kath. "I just need to get something."

Stefan stood up, wore his dark glasses and walked to her side to hold her hand. "I'll accompany you."

"Ah?" Cayenne's mind took a sudden turn when he offered to come with her. She didn't want him to see what she was going to do yet. "You don't need to come with me. Just stay here and do your work. I'll be back as soon as I can."

"No, I want to come with you."

"But-"

"No buts." Stefan placed his index finger on her lips. "What if someone recognizes you out there? Who will protect you? How will you escape?"

"Alright. I'll let you come with me." Cayenne surrendered to his persistence. She knew that he was worried and she couldn't do anything about it because she would do the same to him if needed. "But you won't be peeking to the thing that I will be getting, okay?"

"Oh! Are you getting my reward?" His eyes twinkled in happiness when this idea popped in his mind. "It's my reward, right?"

"Are you a dog? Why are you wagging your tail?" Cayenne lightly pinched his face and laughed. "You look silly. Let's just go and get it."

Stefan happily walked beside her. The smile on his couldn't be wiped out as if he was a child who will be receiving a gift for the very first time. He kissed the back of Cayenne's hand; time and time again which made the other female feel envious of the lady boss.

Chris was also confused why the two of them left. He ordered so much food for the three of them but now, he saw them walking out of the office. "Do they want me to die from overeating? They weren't planning to eat outside and left me to deal with all the food, right? Right. I believe in them. I know they weren't sadistic to torture me that much." Chris told himself over and over again to let relieve himself.

Inside the café across the company, Kath and Kyle were sitting beside each other while waiting for Cayenne but they didn't expect that Stefan would be coming with her.

"Sis." Kyle called Cayenne when he saw them coming in. He waved his hand at them to get their attention.

"Hello." Kath slightly bowed her head in greetings. "I have brought that things you wanted. I hope it will be okay."

"I hope so, too." Cayenne replied with a red face. No matter how she tried to hide her blush, Stefan could see the deep shade of red climbing from her neck to her face and ears. She's blushing. He raised his eyebrow in curiosity but he didn't take a peek or ask what it was because he promised her.

"We won't be taking so much of your time. We will go ahead and have a date." Kyle told his sister.

"Make sure to send her home before six in the evening." Cayenne reminded her brother. She's a girl and she knew that parents are strict when it comes to their daughter's safety. Even her mother was a strict person when she was still a teen but eventually, she had to loosen her rein on Cayenne because they had no other choice but to rely on her.

Cayenne ended up risking her life over and over again in the past five years just to earn money for the family. There was even a time that she was almost raped in a dark alley. If not because of a good Samaritan who came to rescue her, she would've been taken advantage and probably, had died back then.

"What are you thinking?" Stefan asked her when he noticed that she became quiet after reminding her brother to send his girlfriend home. "Are you alright?"

"Hn. I'm fine.  I just remembered something in the past. Anyway, let's go back to the company. Chris must be waiting for us. He wouldn't think that we ditched him to let him eat all the food her ordered, right?"

"I think he already thought of that idea but he would basically rely on his trust on us."

"You really know each other that much."

"Maybe." Stefan responded. "Let's go." He took her hand, intertwined their fingers and went back to the company with the small paper bag that Cayenne received from Kath.

When they left, Arthur put down the menu on the table and watched them leave the place. He came to see Cayenne, thinking that she'd be home since it's Sunday. He didn't expect that she wouldn't be around but then, he heard Kyle talking to someone over the phone that they will meet his sister in a café.

Without letting Kyle know, he tailed him from a certain distance. He watched him picked up his girlfriend in front of their university gate and then watched them board a taxi to go somewhere. Kyle didn't notice him at all. 

He was expecting them to meet with Cayenne but he didn't know that she'd be coming with someone else. His rage was obvious and even the waiter, who was about to take his order, was scared to death when he saw Arthur's angry face. He seemed like he was about to kill someone. And that someone was none other than Stefan. He wanted to grind his flesh to a mince meat and feed him to a dog.

Instead of dining or giving his order, Arthur stood up and left the place as well.

'I needed to think of a way to get her back. She's mine to begin with and no one else can have her except me.'
