Magnus finally looked towards his wife and noticed that she had been silent. Thinking that he had hurt her again this time, he decided to give the name and address of the cemetery where she was buried.

"We're living first." Magnus muttered and stood up. Clara stood up after him and left.

Ferdinand look at his grandson. Even though he was an illegitimate son, he still got the blood of Dumrique running inside his veins and blood vessels. "I hope you will think about your future and the future of your woman very carefully." After seeing these words, he left the office.

Stefan didn't even bother himself seeing them out.

He suddenly felt so tired after meeting them. He rubbed his temples and kept the note of his mother's name and the address of the cemetery inside his chest pocket.

Cayenne was busy working inside the hotel. She was trying her best to forget what happened in the morning with Stefan. Celine and her were currently in the 5th floor changing bedsheets and pillows in the rooms that were recently vacated by the guests.

'Buzz. Buzz. Buzz.'

Her phone kept vibrating inside her pocket so she fished it out and found that it was Stefan who was calling her. The image of his handsome face appeared in her mind once again, making her blush and bit her lower lip.

"Hi." She greeted him right after answering the phone. "Is there something wrong?"

"I want to see you." Stefan replied.

"Eh? I'm in the middle of work." Cayenne murmured while removing the bedsheet from the mattress. "Did someone bully you? Did your parents come and upset you again?"

He was standing inside his office room, watching the scenery outside through his clear glass window; even though there wasn't really anything good to look at. "How did you know that it was them?"

"Well, aside from your family, I don't know who else can upset you." She responded with a sigh. "Did they tell you to come home and marry someone else?"

Stefan chuckled at her response. "How could you be so accurate? Did you place a camera inside my office and watch me?"

"Tsk! You have a great imagination. I'm not rich enough to waste money on nonsense things. Marrying you to someone else is just a common strife between wealthy family. I have anticipated this to happen already."

"Is that why you are so calm right now?"

"Uh huh."

"Then, what if I will be left with no other choice but to marry someone else, what will you do?"

"Huh? What does that have to do with me? You will be the one who will make a choice and if you choose her, what else can I do aside from giving up?"

"You won't fight for me?"

Cayenne put down the pillow on the bed before answering. "If you give up on us first, I won't make a fuss over it. I won't fight a losing battle. It will only waste my energy and hurt me. So, in the future, think everything carefully."

"Hey, don't be so serious. I was just asking. There's no way I'd trade you for someone I have no feelings for."

"Hn. I believe you." Cayenne muttered. People might think that she's a shallow person who won't think twice but to give up her life in the face of some challenges. In fact, Cayenne wasn't this type of person. However, she lives her life with rationality and practical mind. She will never allow herself to be blinded with love.

She will face whatever challenges is thrown at her as long as Stefan won't give up on her. But the moment he gives up, she will also stop fighting. She will never force herself into someone's life who no longer cares for her. 

"I'll get back to work now. See you." Stefan ended the call and picked up his coat to leave the company.

Cayenne continued to work as if nothing happens but her heart started to waver again. Although she remained calm during the conversation, she actually felt scared. She might not look like it but she invested too much emotions and feeling in her relationship with Stefan. They might not be official and a possibility that he'll leave is just around the corner. If he would really leave her, she'll have no other choice but to pick up the broken pieces of her heart and walk away from his life.

"Your boyfriend is rich?" Celine asked when she noticed that Cayenne seemed to be down after the call.

"Hn."

"And he's being arranged to marry someone else for the interest of their business or riches?"

"Hn."

"I'm not saying this because I'm doubting you, Yen. But what if his parents will come looking for you and give you hundreds of thousands or a million to stay away from him, what will you do?"

"I am not in dire need of money." Cayenne replied. "I won't trade him for money. I can work. I can earn and even if he won't share his wealth to me, I don't care. I'm not after for his money anyway. He can have it to himself as long he won't give up on me."

Celine nodded her head. "That's good."

Cayenne didn't say anything anymore. They continue to work like usual and Cayenne didn't think too much of her problem.

At the lobby, Chris excused Luna from her work so that they can talk about the vacation that Stefan awarded them for winning the came on Christmas Eve.

Stefan on the other hand was talking to Manager Kim to find where Cayenne was. After knowing that she's on her way back to the ground floor, Stefan waited inside the employee's lounge instead. He didn't bring anything with him but there's a delivery boy whom he contacted to send the flowers and snacks for her.

"Is Ms. Cayenne Ardolf working here?" the delivery guy asked the receptionist of the hotel who was Luna's partner. "I've got some deliveries for her."

"That's me." Cayenne voiced out. She happened to hear the guy when she got out of the elevator. "Who's this from?"

"There must be a name on the card." The delivery guy answered. "Can you sign this for me?" he handed the delivery form and Cayenne signed on her name before accepting the bouquet of flowers, a box of matcha cake and a box of chocolate cake.

"Thank you." Cayenne whispered and took a peek of the card. Her eyebrow raised and a smile appeared on her lips. "This guy is getting better at this."

Since she was focused on her flowers and desserts, she didn't notice that Luna wasn't in the reception area or that Chris was in the lobby. She just happily went back to the employee's lounge.

Other employees who saw what happened were a little envious of her. They didn't know who was Cayenne's boyfriend but they knew that he's a sweet guy.
