Chapter 706: [Bonus chapter] PAMPERING HER HUSBAND

Cayenne called Elena to confirm Stefan’s schedule and with a little threat coming from her, Elena blurted out that Stefan canceled three appointments to make time for her. She reassured her that they weren’t that important and can be rescheduled for another day.

“I should really make it a habit to check his schedule every day.”

“Even if you check it, there will be some last-minute changes and I wouldn’t be able to email them to you.”

“Last-minute changes? Like the cancellation earlier?”

Elena just pouted her lips and apologized. She didn’t really mean to lie and expose her boss but she didn’t want Cayenne to hate her either. At the same time, she knew that Cayenne won’t hate Stefan for making time for his wife.

“Alright. If he does this next time for no reason, tell me immediately. I don’t want him to compromise his work for me again and again.”

“Sure thing. I’ll make sure to inform you of whatever changes he’ll have with his schedule.”

.....

“Thanks, Elena.”

“You’re welcome, Miss Yen.”

In the afternoon, Cayenne took Stefan out. Since they couldn’t go on a trip and she will be busy with lots of things the following days, she wanted to take this time to pamper her husband. He always thinks about what’s best for him and makes sure that she gets some time to relax. This time, it was her turn to do the same thing for him. To begin, she asked someone to drive for them, sparing her husband from the task.

“Where are we going?” Stefan asked while observing the streets outside the window.

“Taking you out to shop for something that you really want.”

Stefan raised his eyebrow and grinned. “Honey, I don’t have to shop for what I really want. I already have you in my arms.” He whispered in a low voice that tickled her heart down to her core.

Taking a deep breath to calm her racing heart, she cupped his face and snorted. “I said something. I’m a person, not a thing.”

“Heh! You are blushing.”

“I’m not.”

“Yes, you are. Are you that happy with what I said?”

“No.”

Stefan teased her again but Cayenne wouldn’t just admit to it no matter how obvious it was.

When they arrived at the mall, Cayenne gave Stefan her card. It was her hard-earned money and she wanted to buy him something using her card, not his.

“Can I really buy anything with this? I can just use my own money, you know.”

“Yes, you can buy no matching outfits.”

Stefan’s dazzling smile vanished the moment Cayenne said those words. “What?! But why? I thought I can buy whatever I want.” He always wanted to buy a lot of matching outfits with her. One matching item per month wasn’t enough for him. Stefan sulked and pouted his lips pitifully. “Won’t you change your mind?”

“Where are you planning to place these things? We have so many clothes at home already and we don’t have enough space to put them.”

“We will have a big space to put them in the future.”

“Then, let’s buy them once we have that big space you said.”

“Promise?”

Cayenne felt suspicious of his actions but since he was always like this when it comes to matching items, she just let this matter go. “Alright. I promise. We can buy whatever you want once we have a huge space to store them.”

“Great! I already know what to get today.” He intertwined his fingers with hers and left the car to get the thing he had in mind. It was something that both of them can use whenever they get some free time.

Cayenne just walked beside him and they talked about some things along the way. With the bodyguards around them, no one could approach them and hear what they talked about. Besides, they were wearing face masks that hid their faces.

“Shall we get some books while we are here? The place I wanted to go is close to a book store and I wanted to get something to read.”

“Sure. I’d love to get something to read, too.”

“Let’s get some books first before we go up to the next floor.”

Cayenne thought that Stefan would get something related to business management or related to finance. So, when he followed her to the fiction, she was a little surprised. “I didn’t expect you’d be interested in this kind of book.”

“I just wanted to know what kind of books you usually read.”

“I just read whatever I think is interesting.”

Stefan took out several books from the shelf and read the summary at the back. Cayenne glanced at him from time to time and she noticed that he already separated three books from the rest of the items he got earlier. Reading the titles of the books, Cayenne felt her face heats up. She moved her mask down her face a little, fanned herself with her hand, and took several steps away from him.

“Are you feeling hot?” Stefan asked worriedly. “I didn’t bring any fans here.”

“I’m fine. Don’t mind me.”

Reading her reaction, Stefan shifted his gaze between Cayenne and the books he was holding. Wanting to confirm something, he moved closer to her and showed her the books. “What do you think about these items? His Dirty Book, Obsessing Her Body, and Breathless Night. They sound good to me. Their summary seems okay.”

“The content might not be great.” Cayenne retorted without looking at him.

Stefan moved even closer and linked their arms together. He flipped the pages of the book and stopped when he found something interesting. His mischievous grin couldn’t be seen behind his mask and Cayenne had no idea what he was up to until he spoke again – reading the content of the page he found.

“Her heavy moans echoed inside the room. He kissed her neck, still gliding slowly and easily. Each glide triggered a weaker ripple through her body. She was- ”

“Stop it.” Cayenne hissed and glared at him. “People could hear you.”

“Ah. I guess I’ll read this to you tonight.”

“No. I’m not interested in that.”

“You’ll love this book for sure. How about we read this together?”

If she could, she would dig a hole and hide in it. She was so embarrassed because many people were looking at them and some girls were giggling at what Stefan read.

“I’m not interested in the books now.” Cayenne retorted and started walking out.

“No worries. I’ll share these books with you.”

Cayenne left the store without turning back and waited for Stefan a few meters away from the place. She felt really awkward around those people who heard what Stefan read. With those few sentences from the book, one could tell the erotic things inside it.

Since they will be roaming around, Stefan asked the saleslady to put wrap the books using paper bags. In that way, no additional people could see what he bought from the bookstore.

He looked for Cayenne when he got out of the store and found her sitting inside a small café with a cup of coffee. She also got one for him. [My little darling will have a long night tonight.] He thought as he walked towards her.

After getting the books, Stefan led Cayenne to the next floor which was the gadget and electronics area. They looked around for a bit just in case he’d find something else worth buying. After a few minutes, he decided to go for that item he had in mind.

“A PlayStation?” Cayenne asked after the salesman left. “That’s a little unexpected.”

“Well, we can use it if we decide to have some game night or just relax at home.” Before she could respond, Stefan added, “I can also play with you and punish you with something if you lose a game.”

“Sure! I’m not someone who can lose in a game.” Deep in her mind, she was already planning to ask Luiz to teach her whatever game she can play with this gadget. Losing a game to him would mean a long and exhausting night. [Wait. If I lose to him, it means more chances of having a baby. Never mind, then. Losing isn’t that bad.]

Not knowing what was running in her mind, Stefan was humming a song that Cayenne was very familiar with. It was the first song that she ever sang to him to make him sleep.

After buying what he likes, Cayenne brought Stefan to an arcade where they can play whatever they want. She allotted an hour for game time and played to their hearts’ content. Some of the bodyguards played with them while the others kept an eye out for any danger. After an hour, they collected so many game tickets and exchanged them for a small transformer toy. Stefan thought they’d give it to Luiz but Cayenne kept the toy inside her handbag which looked rather out of place among her other things.

Since it was a game that they got from the tickets they played together, she wanted to keep the toy as memorabilia.

After the game, Cayenne brought him to the closest spa. She joined him in a ‘couple massage’ and shared some of her plans with him. She knew that Stefan had been so busy with so many things to take care of and she wanted to help him a little. Although she helps him at night with some extra-curricular activities, she knew that those activities won’t really relax him.

Stefan enjoyed the massage with her and he was really happy that Cayenne thought of spending time like this with him. Since they will have to wait for about an hour before they can shower, they chatted about the progress of Stanley’s relationship with Jessie.

It’s not because they wanted to meddle with his relationship but because they wanted to know if things were going fine and if they were both happy.

In the middle of the conversation, Stefan received a message from Luna. The wedding cards have been finalized and were ready to be delivered once he gives his go signal. He checked the details of the card once again to make sure that nothing was wrong with it before telling Luna to go with the plan.

As her best friend, Luna was very excited about the wedding. Stefan shared the wedding plan with her so she could have an idea of what will happen. Just remembering the details made her shiver from the happiness she felt for Cayenne. She even started listing the things she should get for the couple.

After messaging Luna, Stefan kept his phone away and gave his attention back to his wife. His plan was sailing smoothly and he even wished for days to quickly pass by. He just wanted to marry her in front of the whole world soon.

Three hours later, Stefan found himself sitting on a chair with Cayenne standing in front of him. She was holding a small wooden vase with a single stalk of white orchids and another box which was quite heavy when he received it,

“Why are you giving me flowers?”

“Girls aren’t the only ones who can get flowers. What’s wrong with me giving you flowers? I just want to thank you and tell you how much I appreciate your love and care all this time. I don’t know what else I can do to show my love for you.”

His warm smile escaped his lips as he smelled the white orchids that she gave him. “Is this alive? Can I raise this plant?”

“Yup.”

“Thank you, love. I didn’t see this coming. I thought this would be a simple dinner.”

“You haven’t seen the other gift yet.”

Because of her words, Stefan got really curious about what was inside the box. He opened it excitedly and his smile grew wider when he saw it. She always scolds him when he buys matching items for both of them but now, she gifted him a matching temperature control smart mug.

“These are wonderful. How shall I reward you tonight?”

“Nah. I don’t need your reward tonight. Keep it to yourself. I need to wake up early tomorrow.”

No longer restraining himself, Stefan laughed so hard at her response. He was really happy and it made him stand up from his seat to hug her tight. “I love you, Ayen. I love you to the moon and back; to the deepest of my bones and my hottest core.”

“I know and I love you always and forever.”
