Chapter 448 - A SUDDEN CHANGE

While the two of them spent some quality time together, other people were spending quality time to destroy them as well. Diana already prepared her plan to deal with Cayenne. She's got so many plans in mind depending on which route will Cayenne choose.

In their family, they were trained not just to become a fine lady, elegant with aristocracy but, they were also trained to be ruthless and cold. She grew up in a cold environment where even families can be slaughtered if they won't follow the rules. She was walking on egg shells and the day has finally come.

It would be easy to kill her grandfather but she didn't want that to happen. Everyone in their organization and business trades still recognized him as the head of the empire, if he suddenly dies, they will be the first suspect. She can't deal with too much attention on them. So, all she could do was the cleanest and fastest way – make sure that Cayenne won't fight for the inheritance.

She didn't want to kill her, too since they're blood-related and since Cayenne didn't really do anything but if she covets what's not hers, Diana has no qualms in slitting her throat.

Well, that is if, she can approach Cayenne. She has no idea that if she tries to harm her, she will be killed in an instant.

On the other hand, Natsu was looking at the pictures that his new lover took earlier. There were so many pictures of Cayenne with the other man and the more he looked at Cayenne, something was stirred deep within him. Her small face, the sparkle in her eyes, the sweet smile; everything about her makes his heart race.

"Why didn't I know that you're this beautiful?" Natsu whispered while scrolling the pictures. "Tainted. You're tainted." He said with slightly hooded eyes. There was a soft glow in his face and a faint smile on his lips. These rapid changes, it was something that no one has calculated at all; not even Travis or Jillyanna has seen this coming. No one has prepared for this.

Natsu left the love hotel where they stayed on his own. He didn't bother waking up the woman who was still sleeping naked on the bed. He no longer needed her. He can find someone else to do things for him.

"Do you mind if we'll have some wine?" Stefan asked Cayenne about it knowing that she's got a low alcohol tolerance. He didn't want her to get drunk.

"I don't mind to have a little amount of wine. We can just ask one of the guards to drive the car instead of you driving it."

"Okay."

Stefan called the waitress once again and ordered some red wine for both of them.

And speaking of the guards, not only Stefan and Cayenne caught the attention of the other diners but their guards as well. It was mentioned that where they ate, the guards will also be eating in that place, surrounding them with extra vigilance. Now, the same thing has happened in Faria.

Stefan didn't book them a reservation on the second floor of the VIP room but the guards chose their own seats according to where the master and madam's location.

Faria was known as a spot for dating because of its romantic ambiance. Seeing the burly men, eating nonchalantly with another burly man, many of the diners felt weird. Most of the customers were couples and these big men were the complete opposite. They were just eating and chatting while looking around the place. They didn't look awkward at all.

'Faria will probably attract more customers because of these men.' The restaurant manager thought to himself while watching the guards eat. He didn't know who started the rumor about their place being a space for lovers which really affected their business. Although they like the feeling of being one of a kind where people make reservations for their dates and all, they still wanted to have normal customers like the guards. The kind of customers who didn't exude the aroma of love and sweetness.

Having seen many couple day after day, anyone can feel envy. They didn't like that feeling so they wanted to have normal customers who can make them feel that their restaurant is just a normal restaurant that other people can visit even if they're with their friends or family; not just lovers.

As promised, Stefan didn't drive the car after dinner. One of the guards drove it for him while he and Cayenne sat at the backseat. He felt safe and alive when she's with him and he started to relax while holding her hand.

"Wifey, do you have any plans tomorrow?"

"Yup. In the morning, I will come and visit Justin's home to see the kids. In the afternoon, I will be visiting Jillyanna to learn some self-defense moves from her. In the evening, I will be spending my time with you. On Sunday, you can have me to yourself alone."

"Why are you busier than me?" Stefan lightly pinched her face before kissing it. "Don't tire yourself too much. You have to rest as well."

"I can rest at night with you." She shifted on her seat and turned to her side to face him. "Hubby, do you want to come with me tomorrow afternoon?"

"Why not the whole day?"

"Don't be greedy." Cayenne kissed his cheek and smile. "Let's go and meet with Jillyanna tomorrow afternoon, okay?"

"Can we have lunch together before going to their house?"

"Sure. I don't really mind."

Cayenne wrapped her hands around his waist and hugged him. To give her better position, Stefan pulled her up and had her sit on his lap. "I'm going to sleep for a bit." Cayenne whispered and wrapped her hands around his neck as she pressed her face on his chest. "The sound of your heartbeat is very relaxing."

"It's because I'm relaxed whenever I'm with you."

Cayenne closed her eyes and inhaled his scent, falling asleep in his arms. She didn't really want to sleep but she was planning to prank him next month. The preparation for her prank already started when they went on a family trip last time. 'I hope he won't get mad.'
