Right after dinner, they went home with all the things that Cayenne bought. When they arrived home, Cayenne didn't greet anyone and just walked upstairs without looking back.

All eyes fell onto Stefan and so, he shrugged his shoulders and explained briefly of what happened although, he didn't really elaborate the thing that upsets his wife.

"Does this warrant you to sleep in the living room tonight?" Kyle asked while looking at his brother-in-law.

"I don't think I'll be sleeping here in the living room. Most probable, I'll be sleeping on the couch in our room." Stefan replied with sadness and disappointment reflecting in his eyes. "By the way, she bought a lot of things for you guys. There are names written on the bags so, you should know which one is yours."

"She shopped to vent her anger?" Luiz asked in a surprised tone. "That's new."

"Well, that's better for me. I'd be very devastated if she locks herself up and refuse talking to me." Stefan responded. "Sigh. Anyway, I'll get back to our room as well. I still need to sort things out with her."

"Goodluck!" Jonas patted his son-in-law's shoulder and smiled encouragingly at him. "Make sure to fix it soon."

"Yes, Pa."

Stefan carried the shopping bags that contained the items for him and walked upstairs to follow his wife. Just as he expected, he won't be sleeping outside. Their problem isn't that big to have him sleep alone in the living room but he knew that if it escalated, he will surely stay in the living room.

When he got inside their room, she was nowhere to be found but the running water from the shower room told him that she was there taking a bath. He took out each of the clothes and placed it inside their wardrobe. Looking at the two wardrobes which was almost full, Stefan thought of changing the study room to a walk-in closet which could be adjacent to their room. He loves buying things for both of them and it seems that Cayenne found a new way of venting her negative emotions. If this continues, having a huge closet was the best choice.

He was still thinking about this when Cayenne walked out of the bathroom with a fresh set of pajamas. Usually, he would be drying her hair but right now, Cayenne was doing it herself. Even when Stefan offered to help her, she refused it.

"I'll just take a quick shower." Stefan mentioned and left her alone for the meantime. By the time he was done showering, Cayenne was already lying on their bed with the blanket pulled up to her nose. "I'm sleeping here tonight." It wasn't a question but a statement. He wanted to see Cayenne's reaction to his words.

Looking at him, she only nodded her head without saying anything in response.

'For Pete's sake, talk to him already!' Cayenne yelled mentally to herself but when she wanted to say something, the words were stuck in her throat and she felt a dull pain on her chest.

'Alright. I'll admit that I'm jealous and I wanted to tear that woman apart. Goodness! This is the first time that I felt so bad after hearing his negative reputation.' Her one side of the brain stated while she was observing her husband in silence.

'I'm sure he didn't mean any of this to happen. Who would have thought that those women will still fantasize about him even after knowing he's married?'

'I know. I felt really stupid for getting upset but I just couldn't control my emotions. I felt really hurt hearing those words coming from those women.'

'Forget it. Just forget it.'

Cayenne was battling herself mentally while keeping a straight face externally. Stefan had no idea that his wife was making a confrontation of herself.

After he was done with whatever he needed to do, he walked to their bed and laid down next to her. Cayenne shifted her body and had her back facing on him.

Despite this, Stefan moved closer to her and wrapped his arm on her waist, pulling her close to him until her back was tightly pressed on his chest.

"I'm not angry." Cayenne mumbled once again. "Just give me time to adjust my thoughts once again."

"Okay. I will wait for you to do that."

"I know that you had this reputation before we met and I know that we couldn't change the past and make it right. I won't be angry and become unreasonable because of these things. Maybe I'd feel bad and hurt when someone talks about this specially if they were involved with you but I won't lose my head over this. Just let me vent my frustration and just give me time, okay?"

"Hn. As long as you won't leave me, I will do anything for you. I love you so much, Ayen."

"I know that."

Stefan pursed his lips when he didn't get the response he was expecting. Nevertheless, given the circumstances and her current emotion, he didn't press her for any response. He kissed the top of her head and buried his face on the crook of her shoulder and neck, inhaling her sweet scent to calm himself. "Good night."

"Good night." Cayenne whispered but she didn't sleep at all. She was just lying silently next to him, not moving and not daring to breath loudly.

Half an hour later, she felt that Stefan's breathing has evened out and she used this opportunity to shift her body. This time, she was facing him and was even gently caressing his face. She looked at his eyes, his eyebrows, his thick and curvy lashes, his nose, his lips; etching every part of his face in her brain. There was a frown between his brows and she used her thumb to caress it. Stefan's facial expression changed and he seemed to calm down.

"I love you, too. I will only love you, hubby." She whispered and kissed the tip of his nose. Now, she took the initiative to move even closer and wrapped her arm on his waist.

Stefan wasn't actually asleep and he knew that she was observing him. Instead of opening his eyes, he just tried to feel what she was doing and when she said those words, his heart leapt out within his chest from happiness.. 'Thank you, dear God for letting her stay with me.'
