Chapter 160 - WE'VE GOT YOUR BACK
Stefan frowned when upon seeing her expression. "Why are you looking at me like that? As if you want to eat me raw and whole?"
"Geez! Even if I want to eat you it won't happen soon. Dream on." Cayenne rebutted with a roll of her eyes.? But as soon as she faced Jillyanna, she was like a puppy who saw her master after a long time of separation. "Hello." She greeted.
"Why are you being so polite? It's not like we're meeting for the firs time." Jillyanna commented, taking the remaining steps towards Cayenne who was blushing as if she was meeting her crush. "Are you that happy to see me? You're like a lovestruck teen."
"You just don't know how happy I am." Cayenne admitted with all honesty. "I've been dreaming to see you after that fateful night over a year ago. I didn't expect I'd really see you this soon. I still keep the letter that you gave me."
"I didn't expect you'd end up with Stefan either. I still remember how he scolded you back then. And if I remember it correctly, it was your first day to take up the job."
"Hey! Don't recall such negative incident." Stefan commented on the side. It was a thing in the past that would always make him feel embarrassed towards Cayenne.
Jillyanna and Travis just laughed it off while Cayenne smiled sheepishly. Of course, she remembered it. It's something that she would never forget in her entire life because meeting Jillyanna changed her mindset.
Since it already dark and called, they didn't say for a long time at the back garden. They all went inside and it so-happen that Valkyrie and Brown came home after a long week of observation with their next target.
"Little Yenyen! You're here." Brown greeted Cayenne and rubbed her head. "How was your work lately?"
"It's okay. I'm not having a hard time at all." Cayenne smiled at him but she suddenly realized that something's weird. "Don't tell me you're living here, too?" Cayenne asked her with an expression full of doubt and hesitation.
"Bingo!" Brown answered.
"We live in one of the houses at the back." Valkyrie added.
"Wow! You're a very tight family." She stated with amazement.
"Jillyanna keeps us together." Brown told her and gave Jill a wink.
They talked about different stuff but later on, Jillyanna gave Raizel to Travis and asked Cayenne to come and follow her upstairs. Although Cayenne knew that nothing will happen to her, she was still a bit nervous to be alone with her.
"Do you know why I asked you to follow me?" Jillyanna asked her after the two of them settled on one of the couches around and Cayenne shook her head because she had no idea at all. "I just want you to know that we've got your back."
"Ah?" Cayenne was a bit startled with what Jillyanna said because she knew that she had no private relationship with them at all. "Thank you for telling me that. I know you are kind and that you're willing to help everyone who needs help but really, I'm fine and I'm having a good time with my work."
"I understand your point and I'm not attracting any bad things to happen but we cannot erase the fact that you and Stefan has a different social status. If you get bullied one day, remember that we've got your back. You can always come to us for help."
"Thank you so much, Ms. Jillyanna."
"Just call me Jill. Don't hesitate to contact us in the future. And don't lose the letter as well. We'll be looking after you."
Cayenne couldn't really understand why they were all being good to her but she knew that the Madrigal family and everyone connected to them were all nice and kind. She didn't want to think too much about it.
After quarter an hour the two of them went back downstairs and they all had dinner together. Riley and Shein were there. Brown and Hawk joined them as well. Jackie wasn't around because she went to have a date with Vincent. Savannah and Hawk were coming home late since they still needed to drop by the military camp to make a conclusive report of their recent mission. They were currently separated from Brown and Valkyrie.
They talked a lot during dinner and even after they were done eating they were still chatting in the living room. Stefan was happy to see Cayenne's lovely and worry-free smile. It's seldom to see her without any worries.
"Let's take pictures." Riley suggested. "You wanted to make your brother's become jealous right?"
"Is it really okay?" Cayenne asked hesitantly but she was already holding her phone.
"Sure." Riley took Cayenne's phone and when she saw the design of her cover, Riley's eyebrow raised a bit. "I hate couple items."
"Why?"
"Because I can't have them. Even if I have them, there's no way I can show them in public with my boyfriend."
Cayenne smiled faintly and rubbed Cayenne's arms. "We're just the same, whenever I'm in the public, I never take out my phone. But there were times that Stefan's very stubborn and would insist us to wear a matching outfit. I can only make sure to hide my face."
"You're much like a celebrity." Shein added. "Anyway, just take as many pictures as you want."
Therefore, the rest of the time was spent with Cayenne taking pictures with everyone. She had so many photos of Jillyanna and Riley; and she was ready to make her brothers jealous.
Even when they're already on the road, she couldn't help smiling from time to time and she would tell Stefan how she felt during the visit. Stefan loved hearing her stories and he loved watching her beautiful smile. To him, spending his leisure time with Cayenne and making her happy was always the best of everything.
Stefan was holding the steering wheel with his left hand while holding Cayenne's left hand with his right. Whenever he can, he loves to hold her close to him. "I'm glad that you enjoyed our short visit. Don't forget that tomorrow, we will have an office romance."
