Chapter 649: GOING THROUGH THINGS LIKE NORMAL
Even though Jillyanna and Simon weren’t blood related but knowing he was once her mother’s favorite sibling, Jillyanna decided to pay respect to the only family he has.
When Denise was buried, Simon ca to see her for one last ti and once the mass was over, he was brought back to the jail. He still got one public trial to face before they could finally free him. However, this last trial would be the most difficult of them all because he will be facing the family of the victims.
Monique was escorted back to the Amir residence after the burial ceremony. She refused to stay with Jillyanna’s family and left with no choice, Travis asked soone to guard her and help her at ho.
Due to the series of bad events, Raizel’s first birthday was celebrated with their family only. They only prepared a simple celebration but since many people rembered this important event, the Madrigal still ended up receiving tons of gifts. After all, who wouldn’t want to be on Travis’ good side?
In the past few days since the incident of poisoning Stefan’s grandma, Cayenne had been going to Peach Wood Subdivision. And of course, Stefan goes there with her. She would cook breakfast and eat with the Sugo family. Sotis, she’d ask one of the guards to send so food to Stanley at the hospital. Other tis, she’d receive a ssage from him that she shouldn’t bother doing it. Apparently, Jessie would also co over to visit him and Cory.
anwhile, Ferdinand was looking outside the window of his room while holding onto his silver cane for support. He was following the news of Stefan’s grandmother and for so reason he felt envious of her. “She didn’t get to spend so much ti with Stefan as he grew up but that young lad cares so much for him. He didn’t even show that much care with when I had a heart attack. If it weren’t for Yen, he wouldn’t bother to visit .”
“Dad, stop thinking about it.”
.....
“Shall I fake my health condition to make him co and stay with us a little longer?”
“That’s impossible. Yen would probably co and he would probably accompany you but he definitely won’t spend ti with you. He wouldn’t even do that to when I’m his father.”
“And whose fault do you think it is?” Ferdinand questioned angrily, yet there were no changes on his facial expression.
“How would I know that Clara would trick ?”
“It’s your lust! If you didn’t succumb to it! If you were faithful and loyal, this wouldn’t happen!” He almost hit Magnus with the silver cane but his son dodged to avoid it which made the old man angrier.
“Dad, why are you bringing all of this now? I already paid the price for the mistake that I did.”
“Whatever. I’m tired.” Ferdinand walked to his bed and sat on it.
Seeing that his father no longer wanted to talk to him, Magnus was left with no other choice but to leave the room. He wanted to call Stefan and asked him to visit the villa sotis, to see his grandfather at least. But knowing his son, he could only give up and send a ssage to Cayenne.
Cayenne was washing the chopping board while Stefan was cooking their food for lunch. She knew that he was a busy person but he still took so ti to take care of his family. She felt sorry for him because she felt inadequate to be his partner but when she starts belittling herself, Stefan would give her reasons why she was his perfect partner.
Cayenne placed the chopping on the drying tray and wiped her hands dry. She leaned on the counter and watched him cook with a faint smile on her face. Stefan felt her gaze on him but when he looked back, Cayenne was already opening the fridge and was taking out so oranges to make so juice for Jose.
“Stop pretending. I know you were looking at earlier.” Stefan stated while switching the stove to low heat. “What is the matter?”
“Can’t I look at my husband?” Cayenne retorted which caused him to grin.
“Then, I’ll let you look at all you want tonight.”
“Geez! Just focus on your dish.” She turned her back on him, hiding the blush which was creeping on her face from her neck. Stefan’s faint chuckle made her blush even more.
Dominic had to work on her part-ti job, and since Cayenne and Stefan were staying with his grandpa, he didn’t worry that much for him. He was more worried with his grandmother. He didn’t know when she’d wake up and he even heard that there’s no cure to the poison which was used on her. So of his colleagues expressed their sympathies and even prayed for the recovery of his grandmother.
In the afternoon, when she was finally done with house chores, Cayenne finally sat down beside his husband who was having a video conference with his marketing team. Since it’s holiday season, many of the hotels will be booked in advance and many of the resorts will be used. Stefan wasn’t worried about the guests since his hotels and resorts were fully-booked. The only thing he wanted was to give them the best experience. That’s why he was having a eting.
Cayenne opened her phone to see any ssages and she got lots of them. There were ssages from her friends but the most recent one was from Magnus. Opening the ssage, Cayenne bit her lower lip and stole a glance at her husband.
-Dad, we’ll try to visit you tomorrow. I’ll talk to Stefan about this later.- Cayenne typed her reply and was about to send it when Stefan snatched her phone. Since it had co to this, she decided to open it up to him.
“Grandpa is getting weaker.”
Everyone at the other end of the conference went still and quiet. They heard Cayenne’s soft voice and they could see Stefan’s stern expression. They all have one thought in mind – are we going to witness their first fight?
Contrary to their expectation, Stefan only sighed and handed the phone back to his wife. “They should stop using you to get . You don’t have to give him a reply. I’ll give him a call after this eting.”
“But you won’t argue with him, right?” Cayenne mouthed, not wanting other people to hear the words she was saying.
“Nope. I’ll listen to you and won’t do that. Just give few minutes.”
“Okay.”
The eting wasn’t over yet but, the news of Stefan being a slave to his wife and how much he spoils her has spread to his employees once again.
