The next day, Stefan and Cayenne left the house. They already informed Chris about their plan in order to make sure that everything will go according to what she had in mind.

  Cayenne didn't bother hiding her identity anymore and she went to Clover Hotel to visit Luna whom she had not seen for quite some time now. She was busy healing her heart that she closed off herself from anyone else. Although they kept in touch through text messages and calls, it was still different when they get to see each other face to face.

  "Do you want me to come with you in the lobby?" Stefan asked when the two of them got out of his car. "I don't mind showing off to everyone that you're my wife."

  "What's there to show off?" Cayenne retorted with a question. "I'm plain and normal. I don't even know why you liked me?"

  "I don't know why either." Stefan answered with wry smile on his lips. "I just know that I don't want to be separated from you. I don't want to live without you and I don't want to see you with another guy. I'm a jealous man. I want you all to myself."

  "I have brothers."

  "Family is excluded from my jealousy." Cayenne rolled her eyes at her with a helpless expression on her face. Stefan just chuckled at her as he intertwined their fingers together. "Let's go." The both of them got inside the elevator exclusive for the president.

  Inside the employee's lounge, those that were having breaks couldn't stop themselves from whispering. They caught the news of Stefan coming over with his wife. They've been speculating that Cayenne was his wife but there were instances that they doubted themselves because Cayenne didn't make a comment. And she denied it.

  The news of her and Stefan during the wedding of Stefan's cousin wasn't confirmed by Cayenne as well. But out of one hundred, ninety percent of their guts told them that it was Cayenne.

  "So, the boss is really coming over?"

  "Yes. I heard that the boss will come and visit his hotels and resorts; and his wife will be coming over as well."

  "Now, it's time for us to see if it's really Cayenne or not. I've been very curious of their love life. That's all."

  "You're not alone."

  "I know right. Cayenne says she's got a boyfriend and it was around the same time that our president got a girlfriend. And what's more, there were pictures of our boss' girlfriend that looks like Cayenne. I'm staking my one-month salary on this. Cayenne is the lady boss."

  "We're not making a bet, alright?"

  "Oh! We're not?"

  They continued to gossip with excitement while Luna sat on the couch with a serious face. She was worried of what might happen now that Cayenne was no longer hiding her identity as Mrs. Dumrique. She didn't want her best friend to be in constant danger because of this title.

  'Ding!' The elevator opened and Cayenne stepped out of it, leaving Stefan inside.

  "You have to eat with me during lunch, okay?" Stefan reminded him while pressing the open button to make sure that he's got more time to see her off.

  "Hn. I'll send you a message later. Let's with Lulu. It's been a while since we had meals together."

  "No worries."

  Cayenne went back inside and kissed his check before going out again and waved at him. "See you later."

  "See you." Stefan let go of his hand and the elevator door slowly closed as he looked at his wife smile at him.

  Cayenne looked for Lulu at the reception desk but she wasn't there for the meantime. So, she went to the employee's lounge instead, knowing that her best friend likes taking her rest inside.

  The moment she got inside, everyone looked at her. There was a hint of surprise on their faces and there were ones who were in a trance of disbelief.

  Luna turned around to see who her colleagues were looking at. And as if time stand still for both of them, Luna couldn't move an inch for several seconds. She was struck to see how her friend changed in almost a month that they have not seen each other.

  "Yenyen! It's really you." Luna ran towards her friends and hugged her tightly. "I was so worried about you when you moved out. I thought I wouldn't see you anymore. How are you?"

  "I'm fine. I'm doing good so far. I learned a lot of things while healing myself from being broken."

  "I'm really sorry to hear about what happened to Auntie. I know it's a sad thing but I am glad that you are living your life well. Auntie must be happy to see you're doing good as well."

  Cayenne looked around the people inside the lounge and she couldn't help but feel a little bad for lying to them. "I'm sorry for worrying you." Cayenne pulled away from Luna and led her to sit once again on the couch.

  Her female colleagues, who love to gossips, quickly walked over to Cayenne and sat beside her. Some were standing behind her, as if they're waiting for her to tell her love story to them.

  "Yen, is it true? Are you really married to the president?"

  "I thought you guys have confirmed that already?" Cayenne retorted with amusement dancing in her eyes. She knows that her colleagues love to gossips but they never really caused her any physical harm so she didn't mind it. And aside from that, even if she won't say anything today, they will still find it out in the future. It might as well come from her – the directly involved party.

  "We couldn't confirm anything because you didn't say a word. We dared speculate with it but we didn't really ask you. Specially that your mother passed away the moment you came back from vacation."

  Cayenne smiled at them, thankful that she worked with kind people. "I'm indeed Stefan's wife but you don't have to feel awkward around me. Before I married him, you guys were with me first. I am happy that I got to work with you all."

  "Eotteokkie! Our little Yenyen is now married. What to do?"

  "You're not her mother, why are you worried?"

  "I'm not worried because she's married. I'm worried because she got married while I'm still single."

  "Why are you making a fuss over it? I'm not even worried when I'm older than you and still single."

  They all laughed together for their silly antics and Cayenne finally relaxed around them. They asked her how she was doing after her sudden resignation.

  They knew that there was a little misunderstanding between her and Stefan because their boss didn't know that Cayenne's mother died. But seeing that she appeared in the hotel, they didn't ask her anything related to it. At the end of the day, it's a problem between husband and wife. They needed to settle their problems privately.

  During lunch, Cayenne ate with Stefan and Luna. Thinking that his wife might be uncomfortable eating at the restaurant where people looked at her, he asked the chef to bring their food in their suite.

  It was the first time that Luna got inside the presidential suite. And it was even to have meal with them.

  Chris also arrived during lunch to bring some documents that Stefan needed to sign; and following behind him were Arthur's men. They have been following him for over a week now and it was the third time that he went to the hotel. They were hoping that this time, Stefan would be around for them to get a break. As long as they get Cayenne's address, they'll be done with their work.

  They didn't know that they were just being played by Stefan. The news of him coming to the hotel with Cayenne was spread by himself using dummy accounts. He was hoping that it would reach these men's ears and make them fall for the trap that the couple planned.

  Although, Arthur's men didn't hear the news, they will still fall on their trap because they've been following Chris.

  On the other hand, Kirin had been looking for her son. She knew that they'll be doomed if Stefan make a move on them because of Cayenne. Their businesses were already doing bad because Cole left and Stefan attacked it previously because she badmouthed his wife.

  She's facing nothing but trouble. It wasn't until now that she realized the grave mistake she did. She shouldn't have spoiled her son so much, neglecting the eldest just because he got married to the woman she didn't like. Now, Arthur was giving her nothing but trouble and the person who always helped her to mend everything has left their family.

  She was sitting on the couch while waiting for the news from the private investigator that she hired. This was the last thing she can do and she needed to stop her son before it's too late.

  'Oh god! What have I done? How did things turn out this way?'

  Kirin deeply regretted her decision. However, just like there's no time machine to turn back time; there's no medicine for regrets either. You just have to swallow it forcefully and cry.
