Chapter 599 - LOOKING FOR STEFAN



"Presents." Luiz muttered softly. \'Before, we only exchange presents between ourselves. Who would have thought that we\'ll be able to share gifts to other people now?\' Luiz thought to himself. In a span of one year, ever since Cayenne met Stefan, a lot of things happened in their lives – both good and bad. The good ones brought them happiness and the bad ones brought them lessons.

"Alright. Let\'s free up our weekend. If we can\'t do everything on Saturday, we can have the next day to continue or task." Stefan commented.

"I have a work scheduled this Saturday afternoon, though." Luiz replied to his brother-in-law. "I don\'t want to postpone it. It\'s a big company and I\'m afraid they\'d have a bad impression of me."

"You can come with us on Sunday instead." Cayenne told her brother. "Also…"

As she spoke, Stefan received a message notification from Travis and Lucian. Their message was all about the same person that he never wanted to associate himself with – Napoleon Dumrique.

"Excuse me for a while. I\'ll have to give someone a call." Cayenne looked at him leave his seat but she didn\'t stop him from leaving. Since he decided to do it during dinner, it must be something very important. In fact, Stefan had seen this coming after receiving the information from Tristan few minutes ago. "Good evening officer Seville." Stefan greeted as he called Lucian first. He\'s Jillyanna\'s brother-in-law.

"Good evening. I have received an information here related to one of your relatives."

"Which relative?"

"Napoleon Dumrique. I ran a quick investigation and found that he\'s your uncle."

"What about it? If he committed a crime, you can handle it according to the law. I got nothing to do with him."

Lucian put down the documents he received and sighed. "Last time, it was your step mother and now it\'s your uncle. Who\'s next?"

"I have no idea who\'d be coming next. As long as they won\'t trifle with me, I won\'t bother with them but, if they choose to mess with me or anyone from my family, I\'d be the first person to send them in your care."

"I see. No wonder you are friends with Travis. If I didn\'t know better, I\'d think you both are brothers. You have similar way of dealing things although, he\'s a little bit extreme than you."

"We\'re not blood related but we are a lot closer like siblings."

"Anyway, I was just trying to sound you out if there\'s anything between you and this person. Since there\'s none, we\'ll proceed with the investigation."

"Sure. Let me know of your verdict once it\'s over."

"I will." Lucian ended the call and went back to work. He has read the information and felt an oncoming headache because of it. Stefan\'s late stepmother and now, his uncle, - both were reported to have committed murder. "This is going to be a lot of work."

On the other hand, Stefan called Travis. He confirmed everything that Travis knew of and told him of his future plans, too. Just like he said earlier, they\'re closer like brothers. Although they don\'t show it a lot of times in public, they actually talk and share lots of things in private.

Since he was still in the middle of having dinner with his family, Stefan didn\'t take so much time and bid his farewell. In any case, there will be a lot of opportunities for them to talk in the future. Thus, he went back to the dining room and finished his meal.

The next morning, the news of Napoleon committing murder has spread to a lot of people in the business circle. To other people, they only cared about his last name. They didn\'t even really know who he was. To business people, especially those who have collaboration with this man, they were all surprised and worried at the same time.

Shock because they have not expected it knowing this man is a Dumrique. Worry because their businesses will be surely affected. Upon hearing this news, many reporters wanted to get an interview with Stefan. He wanted to know his side of what\'s going on with the well-known family.

"The boss isn\'t home. He\'s with his wife."

"Our boss left this morning to send his wife to school."

"No, our boss isn\'t here."

This were the replies coming from the bodyguards who were stationed at the gate of Cayenne\'s property. In the span of two hours, he met a lot of people looking for their boss.

"Sir Stefan doesn\'t come to our company that often anymore."

"No, sir Stefan isn\'t around."

"If I may say, he\'s probably at his wife\'s university."

Those reporters who went to Stefan\'s company received this answer from the employees. They never thought that this rich man, who looked busy because he owns lots of business, was actually an easy-go-lucky guy who prioritizes his wife more than anything else.

Therefore, all reporters went to Xena University after finding out where Cayenne was currently studying. The café where Stefan stayed at the moment earned a lot as well because when they came, Stefan was having a meeting. It didn\'t matter if it was a confidential meeting because no one would get a clue of the content since all he says were \'yes\', \'no\' and \'don\'t\'. If he wanted to say something else, he\'d type it out.

Since they had to wait, they decided to buy something to drink and eat at the café.

"Why are there to many reporters coming here? Are they planning to interview Mr. Dumrique?" one of the waitresses asked while giving her surrounding a look.

"Haven\'t you heard yet? One of his relatives committed a crime. They must be here to get some information from him." another waitress answered.

"Well, it\'s good that he\'s here again today. Look, we\'re fully packed and some of our pastries are sold out."

"Right. I\'d go and ask the chef to make another matcha cake because Ms.. Yen would always buy it after her class."
