Chapter 514 - A WIFE'S INTUITION
Night slowly falls on the city and on the island. Cayenne had a very nice of the place, given that it was quiet and it was vast. When she looked up into the sky, she can see the wide night sky, littered with stars that were shining so bright. 'Stefan.' Cayenne whispered his na. She couldn't utter his na loudly in the house, afraid that there were hearing devices near her.
She could only whisper his na from ti to ti, making it her anchor to get through all this.
"Let's cook dinner." Cayenne went out of her room and walked to the kitchen to start cooking. During the first three days that she woke up, she had to eat the food that served by Olivia but since she couldn't fully trust her, she ate only a little, just for show. As soon as three days passed, she started cooking their al with the excuse that her taste buds were sensitive to food.
Cayenne cooked fish cutlet and stir-fried vegetables.. She didn't cook much since there weren't many of them anyway. She acted virtuous in front of them, retracting her claws while waiting for the right mont to attack them.
After dinner, Cayenne went back to her room to take a shower but before that, she opened the toilet tank lid and fished out the phone that she had been hiding since the first day of Seiji's visit. There were ssages from Seiji and the one that stood out the most was about her husband.
"I told your husband that you are fine. I know that we shouldn't contact him but we can't keep him worried. When you have ti, try to contact him as well."
"I will be visiting with Artemis next ti. She'll be helping us so play along with her act. She's different from her sister and grandpa so, you can let down your guard a little."
"Also, be careful with the food you eat there. Artemis told that your grandpa asked the doctor to spike up your food with so kind of dicine which can cause you to lose your mories."
Cayenne read the other ssages from him which were mostly reminders for her. She pressed the reply button and typed her ssage on the reply box. Before she could send it, a ssage from an unknown number ca.
Inside Stefan's office, Tristan and Stefan was talking about their plan. Stefan wanted to contact Stefan through mail as well but he was adamant about it. He got this feeling that soone might be observing them in the shadows. He couldn't risk it.
"Let's just contact him directly through his phone." Tristan suggested. "I can tap on his phone using an employee's phone. In that way, even if soone trace it, they will trace it back to the employee. I can tweak the employee's information as well so that she won't appear to be working in our company."
"Alright. That's a good idea. Go and look for soone, then. I'll let you do whatever you think is right. As long as my wife is okay, I don't mind about other things."
Tristan scrolled the list of the employees and stopped on a man's na. He sent him a ssage to co to the CEO's office. Tristan didn't really choose him out of nowhere. He chose him because he was working over ti and it's evening which ans, not many people are left in the company now.
The man arrived imdiately and greeted the two n inside the office.
"Good evening, Mr. Santos." Tristan greeted. "We are looking for the lady boss but we needed soone's phone to tap onto sothing. It's like this –" Tristan explained the purpose and the current situation to make the man understand. After three minutes, Mr. Santos pulled out his phone and handed it to Tristan.
Tristan connected the phone to his laptop and did so re-configuration before opening the ssaging app and sent a ssage to Seiji's phone. After the ssage was sent, Tristan covered his traces and made so fake IP address which will traced back to US before the original IP gets discovered.
Cayenne looked at the ssage that she received. It wasn't on the contact list of Seiji's phone and she wasn't familiar with it either but the ssage was weird.
"Do you know where my wife is?"
'Huh? Why are you looking for your wife from him?' Cayenne thought. 'Wait. Is this Stefan?' Thinking that Seiji told Stefan about her welfare, it was possible that he'd look for her. 'But whose number is this?'
She pouted her lips and typed on the screen, composing her ssage for the other party. "Don't forget to water the tulips in our balcony. If it dies, I'll kick you once I get ho." She sent it and waited for a reply. 'If this is really my husband, he should know that I'm the one talking to him.'
And yes, she was right. Stefan was able to recognize that it was her but instead of feeling relieved, he's jealousy intensified and he felt really angry this ti.
"Why is she using Seiji's phone. It's almost 8:00 in the evening. Are they still together?" Stefan questioned with the boiling vinegar in his chest.
"Don't jump to that conclusion, sir. Seiji probably left his phone to her. In that way, she has a ans to communicate to the outside world."
"But, why do it now? Why didn't she contact in the past few days?"
"Maybe she's being monitored and can't make phone calls or send ssages whenever she can."
"That makes sense." Stefan nodded his head.
"Right. Stop getting jealous. There's no way your wife would betray you."
Cayenne started taking a bath while waiting for the reply. Since there's a bathtub, she decided to take a dip and relax her muscle while waiting for ssages.
'Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!' The phone vibrated on the small chair that she placed it on. Picking it up, she saw another ssage from the unknown number.
"I think it's fine. I haven't been ho since my wife was taken away. I wasn't able to take care of it properly."
This ti, Cayenne can confirm that it was indeed Stefan. "I'm fine. I'm alive and kicking but I cannot leave this place yet. Anyway, if you ever see again, act as if you are surprise. Don't let the enemy think that we're conspiring against them. Also, you have a very talented secretary. Ask him to dig up the dirty secrets of the Rule family. If we want to leave a happy and peaceful life, we can only take them down. As long they're sitting on the high seats, I will always be their target."
After sending this ssage, Cayenne didn't have to wait for a long ti before getting a reply.
"Shall I inform your family about this?"
"No, don't tell them. We need to make our acting look real. Don't let them know that I am alive. Just pretend that you have no idea and that you are still grieving. Also, I'll be pretending to have lost my mories."
"Okay. I'll follow whatever arrangents you have."
Several knocks on the door startled Cayenne and the phone that she used slipped from her hands and fell on the tub. Her eyes went wide from shock and then the expression disappeared, replaced with coldness and anger. 'It was my only way of communicating and whoever the idiot behind the door has ruined it. Tsk!' She clicked her tongue as she rose from the bath tub and put on her robe.
She rubbed her eyes several tis and looked herself in the mirror. "Wait. I'm in the tub." Cayenne shouted and walked slowly, as if she was dragging herself to the bathroom door. When she opened it Olivia was there, standing with annoyed expression. "Sorry, I fell asleep in the bathtub." She covered her mouth and yawned, walking past the woman. "Do you need anything?"
"Yes. Your grandfather said that your fiancé and your cousin will arrive tomorrow. Artemis is kind of attached to you ever since you are young so, if you see her tomorrow, please don't get mad if she acts clingy."
"Oh. Alright. I won't mind." Cayenne replied. "By the way, have you known the Rule family for a long ti? What was I like in the past? Did I hurt any of them?"
"Nope. You're very kind and they like you so much specially your younger cousin. She likes you very, very much."
"I see." Cayenne looked for clothes to wear while talking to the woman in her room. "I wish I can rember everything." Cayenne muttered as if she was really devastated that she couldn't rember what was her life like.
"It doesn't matter if you can't rember. Your family still loves you and they didn't mind you losing your mories. Besides, you can make new mories with them."
"You are right on that matter." Cayenne responded. "By the way, I haven't heard them talk about my parents. Don't I have parents?"
"Your mother died due to so illness and your father has married soone else. You have been living with your grandfather." Cayenne looked solemn but she didn't ask further. "I'll leave you to rest now. Good night."
"Good night Olivia." Cayenne replied and as soon as the door was closed shut, she sighed in relief. She was so worried that Olivia will volunteer to drain the tub and see the phone which was why she kept talking to her. Thankfully, she didn't. 'Sigh! If I can't leave this place, I won't have any other way to contact my husband.' Cayenne thought to herself. She never felt worried about the phone that she just ruined.
