Chapter 366 - BRINGING BACK HIS FAMILY II

On their way to City H, Cayenne told Stefan the things she heard from Luiz. He looked forlorn with the news and it was understandable. After all, it was his long-lost family. He had been looking for them on his own for several months now. Cayenne couldn't thank enough the fate that allowed them to have a trip together with all the students.

They made a stop in City D to refill his gas and bought some food to eat along the way. Since Stefan was driving, Cayenne was feeding him while chatting about some things that they could buy. City H wasn't as large as City B but their economic industry can still be considered decent and still uprising.

After driving for several hours, they finally arrived in City H. The place was actually beautiful and there were still so many trees around the place. Even their buildings have so many plants on them. They looked eco-friendly.

Stefan looked for a hotel to stay and since there weren't many people, they were able to get a good room for themselves. They took out their clothes from the suitcase and arranged it inside the closet. "Let me give Dominic a call." Stefan mentioned while pulling out his phone.

"I'll send a message to my family as well."

The two of them contacted their family but Cayenne finished soon since it was just a message. She laid on the bed with her arms and legs spread on the bed. She was staring at the ceiling while thinking what they should buy for his family.

She was considering a lot of things but in the end, she thought that simple gifts were still the best. After all, they didn't want to shock his family so much. They only came to meet them first and see if they're willing to move with him to City A.

Stefan sat down beside her and put down his phone. "I talked to him and he said that he will just meet us at the lobby of the hotel. Let's just rest while waiting for him."

Stefan lie down on his side and looked at her. "Have you thought of what we should buy for them?"

"Hn. I already have something in mind. First, let's buy some food that we can share with them. Since Dominic didn't tell them anything, I'm pretty sure that they didn't prepare for arrival. Isn't good to share a meal with them? At the same time, let's buy them simple gifts. We can buy a good wine for uncle, a scarf for grandma and pair of gloves for grandpa. How's that?"

"Sounds good. As for Dominic, let's just allow him to choose anything he likes." Stefan responded. They cuddled together while waiting for Dominic, talking in whispers even though no one can really hear them.

After half an hour, Dominic called, informing them that he has arrived at the lobby. Stefan and Cayenne walked out of their room and met with him immediately. They told him their plans so, Dominic told them where the nearest mall was.

"Is really alright for you to come and meet us? Won't your reputation be affected?" Dominic asked. "We're poor after all."

"Who cares about that? We're relatives. It's just a shame that my father didn't know where you guys went after all these years."

"Sorry about that. I really had no idea what has happened in the past but I am sure that my father will answer all your questions once you've arrived."

Cayenne was just listening to their conversation while looking outside the window to appreciate the beauty of the city. It was still afternoon and many people were strolling outside. Some were families and some were friends. Some were walking alone while talking on their phone and some were just walking aimlessly, probably thinking about their worries.

Not long after, they arrived at the largest mall in the city. "Do you know who owns this?" Stefan asked Cayenne when they parked the car.

"Don't tell me that you own this mall, too?" Cayenne asked in disbelief.

Stefan laughed at her answer as he stretched out his hand to lightly pinched her cheeks. "I'm not that rich."

"Really, huh."

Stefan unfastened her seatbelt and smile at her. "It's your father who owns this mall. He owned three malls as far as I know and other several businesses."

"Oh. I don't know about that and I didn't ask either." Cayenne responded with a nonchalant expression. "It's his properties. I don't care about them."

"Alright. Let's not talk about it." The three of them stepped out of the car and went inside the mall to buy the things they needed. They first went to the pharmacy to buy vitamins and it was Dominic who told them what vitamins to buy. They also bought some of his grandma's medications.

Then, they went to buy wine for his father before going up to the third floor where they can buy men's and women's apparel or gadgets.

"You can choose what you want." Stefan told Dominic but the other guy still felt a little awkward around him and didn't know what he should buy.

Cayenne went inside a store with lots of shoes being displayed. "What's your shoe size?"

"Ah?" Dominic looked at her and scratched the side of his face. "I'm actually fine without buying anything. I don't need shoes at the moment either."

"How about bag? Or shirts?" Cayenne asked again, not letting him off at all. "One of these days, you will be called by one of Stefan's people for interview. Don't you need anything to wear during that time?"

"Do I need to be formal during that time?" Dominic asked Stefan who was looking at the shoes as well.

Stefan looked at him and shook his head. "You can be casual during the interview. It's just getting your information for the scholarship and for the part-time job that will fit for you."

"Oh. Then, can I buy some casual clothes here?"

"Sure." As soon as Stefan answered, Cayenne also smiled at the young man. "Just choose whatever you like and we can go to the next store to find something to pair with your shoes."

"Thank you."
