Chapter 704
Chapter 704: DIDN’T DROWN IN THEIR WORDS
Back in the city, David received three copies of the magazine from InSTYLE Journal and he immediately left his house to give the two copies to Cayenne and Luiz. Not surprisingly to him, Cayenne was out on a trip with her husband so he only discussed relevant information with Luiz while leaving Cayenne’s copy of magazine in Luiz’s hand.
Two hours later after the magazine was released, David received many notifications and direct messages from other companies. He already expected companies to contact him but when he read the content of their message, his eyes almost fell out of its socket.
“They wanted Cayenne to model for some of their clothes as well? Do they want me to die? InSTYLE Journal had secret agreement with Stefan and everything was planned thoroughly by that wife-doting monster. I never had anything to do with it except for the style and make-up.”
David looked towards Luiz and back to his phone. He wanted to ask if there is a little chance for Stefan to agree but deep in his heart, he knew that the chances will be zero and zero only.
David sighed and sent Stefan a message about the offers from several companies and not five minutes later, he received a cold ‘No’ from him. “As expected.” David muttered with faint chuckles.
Since David contacted him, Stefan opened his social media account to check for any updates. He found his account tagged and mentioned in several posts but he didn’t care about them. The update he was looking for was about his wife. He wanted to see if anyone was badmouthing her again after seeing the photos. If you will check your dictionary and look for the word petty, you will see Stefan’s name next to it.
Cayenne looked around for the next target of her wallet but when she turned back to Stefan, she noticed that he was busy with his phone. “What are you busy with? You keep looking at your phone? Is there any problem?” She was worried that something has happened at home or with his business since Stefan would usually handle this on his own to keep her from worrying.
.....
Seeing her anxious expression, Stefan decided to tell her the truth as well as the message that David sent him earlier.
“You’re kidding me.”
“I’m not.” He snorted and showed the message to her. “But I said no to them already.”
“Great! Now I don’t have to worry about this.” She returned his phone and pulled him to another souvenir shop that she saw. “Let’s get something for your grandma and grandpa. I’m sure they will love these things. What do you think would look best on them?”
Not saying anything, Stefan wrapped his arms around her waist and buried his face in the crook of her neck and shoulder. He just couldn’t thank God enough for bringing her into his life. She didn’t fuss over his choices for her and she always tries to understand him. And he knew it wasn’t because she didn’t have her own idea but because she knew when her opinion matter and when it was best for him to decide things. Others might think that Cayenne was inferior to Stefan or that Stefan was inferior to Cayenne but it was never like that. They walk toward their future on equal footing and they always put their family and relationship with best interest in mind.
“Thank you for always trusting me.” Stefan whispered which made Cayenne smile. “I thought you’d get mad since I didn’t discuss it with you.”
“What’s there to discuss with? You know I am not into modelling and we only helped Luiz once. I agreed because I knew it will be a one-time courtesy from you.”
“What if there’s a next time?”
“If there’s a next time, they must have a good reason for me to agree.”
Of course, there will be a next which was why he needed to ask about it now. After all, this photo shoot was the prelude to what was about to come for their wedding.
The owner of the store couldn’t stop herself from reliving her memories of early days. Looking at how sweet Stefana and Cayenne was, her mind was sent back to the time when her husband was still alive. He was also sweet and clingy like the man in front of her. Sadly, her husband left the world quite early for his age.
“Excuse me.” Cayenne called out to the middle-aged woman and showed the items she had in hand. “I’d like to get these items. Also, do you have different styles for these jewelry boxes?”
“Yes, we do.” The woman took Cayenne’s items and placed them inside the basket. “Come this way.”
Cayenne and Stefan have so many jewelries and they didn’t have enough space to store them. Since Cayenne didn’t know about the house that Stefan built for them, he suggested that they get some jewelry boxes. Anyway, they can still use these boxes in their new home.
Since the magazine has been released, Stefan told Tristan to keep an eye on the sales of the magazine. Once it surpasses 50% of the actual print outs, they will release the video that Stefan took. With the help of Tristan, Erwin and Luiz had an easy time editing the footage.
“Will Cayenne venture modelling now?” Faith asked Noah over dinner when the two went out on a date. They also bought a copy of the magazine that Cayenne and Luiz modeled last week.
“I don’t think Stefan will agree on that and if he will, there must be a good reason for him to do that. It’s not his personality to make his wife work so much and worry about things.”
“You have a point. If Cayenne works as a model, she will have to leave home most of the time and she will have to work with other male models. Stefan would probably blow his top from jealousy.”
“You hit the mark.”
The two of them laughed with these thoughts since it was most-likely to happen. With what they learned from Stefan’s personality; he would surely not allow his wife to work with other men without him looking after her.
Those who said negative things about Cayenne also bought their copy of the magazine to find something they can bash her with. No matter how good the shoot was, people will still have something to say.
At the end of the day, one can’t please everybody.
“The pictures have been edited to make her look beautiful.”
“When you have money, you can always have the best editing team to make yourself look good in front of the camera.”
“Her smile is so fake!”
“Did inSTYLE run out of models which made them resort to get this woman?”
“She only got into this magazine because of her brother.”
Many negative voices started popping out in the internet but they were drowned with the voices of those people who supported Cayenne and Luiz. Jealousy can make people hate you for whatever reason they could find but if people like you, they will find good things in you no matter how many flaws you have.
“This magazine edition is about siblings and playful vibe that brothers and sisters should have. If you can’t even tell that, you should just give your magazine to someone else.”
“Some people just can’t stop being jealous over someone’s achievement.”
“She didn’t look beautiful because of the editing team. She’s already beautiful before she even modeled.”
“Oh! It’s Cayenne. She won a lot of beauty contests during our high school years. She had been the campus belle for 4 years, too. It’s not a wonder that she works as a model.”
“Luiz and his sister look really good in the magazine. I can see how close they are.”
“You guys should read the article about her, too. I like her answers and she could be an inspiration to many.”
Despite the negativities she received, many people acknowledged her and supported her, too. In the end, those jealous people kept their mouth shut and stopped their verbal harassment. Besides, Cayenne didn’t really care about them.
In the afternoon, when the magazine sale reached 50%, Tristan uploaded the video to Cayenne’s YT account. Many people have been waiting for the release of this video because they would see how things were behind the perfect photo shoot.
