After Stefan settled down the aftermath of the incident that his wife created, they didn't go back home immediately. They rested for a while, letting his wife catch some sleep as much as she could.
The media still continued to talk about the crime that Jean Nikko Rule has committed and some of them patiently waited for the two sisters to come back to their mansion in order to interview them. Some were also waiting for Seiji outside his main company in Singapore as well as outside their home.
Not just them, in City A, reporters have been following the people who were close to Cayenne like her family and friends. Being one of the people from the modeling industry and since he was very well-known now, Luiz was the very first target of the media. At first, he didn't want to give any report without seeing his sister in flesh and blood but after the media pestered him so much, he decided to give in.
During the interview, four personal bodyguards surrounded him and another group of ten bodyguards separated him and his manager, David, from the intimidating crowd, making sure that they stay within reach but not so close to cause him harm.
"Mr. Ardolf, what can you say about your sister's appearance in someone wedding as a bride? And how are you dealing with this aftermath?"
Luiz looked at the reported and smiled faintly.. "I'm happy that my brother-in-law was able to find my sister after all the time she disappeared. As for becoming someone's bride, I believe that the supposed groom, Seiji Sy has an explanation of this matters. He's my sister's best friend since high school and I believe that he didn't do this thing to create a rift in our family. Of course, there's also the matter of my sister losing her memories. As of now, I don't have much information yet and I am hoping that they'd come home soon."
"Could it be considered kidnapping if the person who took your sister away is your grandfather?"
"What do you mean by that?" David questioned the reporter with his eyes glaring at him sharply.
"I mean no offense and I am not taking sides knowing how horrible that old Rule was but, recently, Mr. Montefalco said that Mrs. Dumrique's birth was very complicated and then later on, Diana Rule came to your life, acknowledging Cayenne as part of their family. Now, she was abducted and the people who took her away was her family, too. What's your opinion on this matter Mr. Ardolf?"
Luiz looked at the reporter but he didn't smile or get angry. Instead, he remained calm and composed as if he has experienced this scenario several times.
"Why don't you look at our background history? I am sure all of you are aware that we didn't come from a wealthy family. After all, my sister was labeled as gold digger when she married my brother-in-law. If the Rule family is our relative, why didn't I know that? I have never heard of them nor my sister heard of them. I have no idea why someone would just jump out of nowhere and claim my sister as her family. Also, my sister and I are blood related through a mother so, why did she claim her only? Why didn't she include me and my brother? Obviously, they're up to no good. Thankfully, we didn't believe them. Look what happened now? If my sister believed them as our family like they claimed to be, she must be heartbroken."
"That's absolutely right. I agree with you." One reporter said.
"Oh! But we should not think of old Rule as one of the normal families we have in the society." Another reporter added which gained agreement from the others.
"Another question Mr. Ardolf? This is questions comes from most of your fans. Are you single?"
"Whoa! That was really a leap of change in question." Luiz commented with faint chuckle. "I am single at the moment but I may not be after several years."
"Well, that's expected. You are still young after all."
"I thought that was the last." Luiz retorted but still patiently waited for them.
"How do you deal with people who's making rumors about your manager and the movie director Kai Labrador?"
Luiz blinked his eyes several times and looked towards his manager who only sighed beside him. "I just realize that this interview is an accumulation of many questions you gathered from past rumors and the recent incident of my sister's disappearance and rescue."
"We have to make most of our time since we cannot interview you whenever we want to. Your brother-in-law is very protective."
"Then, why don't you ask my manager since it's a rumor about him anyway?" Luiz replied while stealing glances towards David.
"We asked them already but none of them answers to the rumors."
"And why do you think I would answer when the involved parties didn't?" he retorted with faint chuckle. "Anyway, regarding this matter, I have no idea what to make of it. Kai's sister is my brother's girlfriend. David is a family friend and my manager. Also, I don't pry on my manager's private life."
"Alright. You've asked enough questions. My model needs to attend his classes in an hour. Please excuse us." David signaled for the bodyguards to move and they immediately helped them leave the place. "That was the first time I saw the media reporters behaving appropriately while conducting street interview but…duh…whatever. It's not my work anyway."
Luiz just looked at his manager who couldn't stop mumbling his opinion. "That's alright now. Don't think too much about it. I have to attend my classes now so, make sure that you get some rest. All your money will be useless if you die early from overwork." Then, Luiz suddenly kept quiet while looking at David. "Say David, don't you feel that something's amiss with the sudden disappearance of my sister as well as her rescue and that supposed wedding?"
"Huh? What are you talking about?"
"I don't know. Ever since the news of my sister being found, I felt that someone's pulling some strings behind the scene but I don't think my sister is capable of doing so."
"So, you are thinking that your sister didn't lose her memory and was planning all this to destroy that Rule family?"
"It's just a hunch but yeah, I guess."
"Why would she do that?"
Luiz shook his head to dismiss the idea because he can't tell David about the truth yet. If Cayenne wants everyone to know that she's from a Rule family, then that would be alright but Luiz didn't have the guts to tell others of this family secret. His father was already sent to jail for being involved in a murder incident over a decade ago. He didn't want to be involved in a family who has committed crimes again and again. It will surely damage his name.
