Chapter 788 - 788 STANLEY’S WORRY I

788 STANLEY’S WORRY I

Cayenne felt that she was less productive during this day of the year but she never told Stefan about this. She didn’t want him to think that she was being petty over a such simple matter.

From morning, she only walked the dog with her husband and by the time they came back, she started feeling dejected all of a sudden. Instead of feeling a little active from the short walk, she didn’t want to get up and do something at all.

At 9:00 AM, she went back to sleep and Stefan had to stay with her for the whole duration. He wasn’t really sleepy so, while she was beside him sound asleep, he was sending messages to Jackson. He needed to know if his wife has anything important scheduled for the day.

Kyle was currently attending his class review for the upcoming licensure examination in March. Although he often helps his sister with the foundation, he also made sure that he has time to review his notes. Now that Jackson has come to aide Cayenne, he has more time for self-study.

“Sir, Ms. Yen has nothing scheduled for today. She said she didn’t like working during this day of the year but I might come in the afternoon if there is anything urgent that needs her signature. If there’s none, I will communicate through text or email.”

“Thank you, Jackson. I’m glad that you are there to help. Tell me if something comes up.”

“Yes, sir.”

Their chat conversation ended there and Stefan moved on to another person – Elena. He already told Tristan to coordinate with the team that Solomon would send over to take the measurement of the room as well as make an estimate of the items that they will be making. Thus, Elena was left to deal with some business matters.

“I forwarded you the information for Cayenne’s new modeling work. I sent some pictures of us using the product at home as well. You can talk to the marketing director for the follow-up. As for the part about the baby’s participation in the future, tell him that I couldn’t guarantee it. Cayenne loves children so much so, I don’t think she would allow our child to do something like this.”

.....

“So, the clauses in the contract are final?” Elena replied to make sure that she won’t overlook anything.

“Yes, I have no issues with their offer. Their modeling fee isn’t really a problem. Just tell them to make sure they can ensure Cayenne’s safety.”

“Noted, boss.”

After talking to Elena, Stefan contacted a few other people for different reasons. He was so busy even though he was accompanying his wife to sleep. He wasn’t sleeping at all.

At noon, Cayenne’s hunger woke her up and the two of them walked down to the kitchen so that they can get some food to eat.

Carla chuckled when she saw the couple like conjoined twins.

Even after they ate their lunch, Cayenne and Stefan were still joined in the hips with the shirt. This went on until Stanley arrived to visit them at around 2 o’clock. It was unusual for him to come over on his own which means that something bad happened.

Cayenne had to let her husband go reluctantly because they needed to face their guest properly, especially since it was his uncle who didn’t seem fond of overloading sweetness this time. She put on her maternity clothes which annoyed her and Stefan could only calm her by promising that they will get under the same shirt after dinner.

“You can stay here while I talk to him.”

“Got it. Shall I ask Jessie if something happened between her and your uncle?”

“Hmmm...let’s not do that. If Jessie is still concern about my uncle, she will most likely contact us about him. Let’s just wait.”

“Alright. Be sure to let me know if there’s anything that I can help.”

???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????

“Hn.” Stefan kissed her forehead and left the room to find his uncle who disappeared from the living room. After asking the security guards, he found out that the man was at the dog house.

Jonas was playing with the dogs but you could tell from his faint smile that he wasn’t genuinely giving them his attention. His mind was somewhere else.

“Uncle.” Stanley stopped his hands from rubbing the dog’s mane for two or three seconds before continuing again. “Did you have a fight with someone?”

“Can’t I come and visit you?”

Stefan sighed with this weak reasoning as he walked and sat beside the older man. Spring came running toward him and Autumn followed suit which brought a faint laughter from Stefan.

“Easy there buddies.” He mumbled but his hands automatically hugged the large dogs while he kept his eyes on his uncle. “So, what exactly happened that made you visit us all of a sudden?”

Stanley stayed silent for about five minutes; probably thinking how he can start telling his worries to his nephew. “Her father doesn’t like me.” Stanley finally said after a long silence. “We’ve been together for almost a year and I never asked her to introduce me to her parents. I wanted her to take her time until she’s ready to announce our relationship to her family. Yesterday, her cousin saw us together and it would have been fine if we were just chatting or probably walking together. Of all things, she saw us kissing when I dropped her off three streets away from her home.”

“Did she talk to you about it?”

“No, not yet. Actually, she didn’t come to work today. When I called her, it was her cousin who answered the phone. She told me that Jessie is grounded. She wasn’t allowed to leave the house even if it was for work.”

“Was it her father who told you he doesn’t like you or was it her cousin?”

“It was her cousin.”

When Stefan knew that Jessie and his uncle has a thing for each other, he investigated his employee to help his uncle. After all, Stanley went through a failed marriage already. He didn’t want him to get hurt again. He knew sooner or later, his uncle would face a huge problem in his relationship because of their age gap.

“Uncle, do you want to give them a visit?”
