“Check this place once again for me. See if there’s anything suspicious from the villagers like how they treat the children after getting donations from different people.”

“Yes, sir. I’ll do it right away.”

“It’s best if you do it tonight.”

“Yes, sir.”

While Cayenne was busy dealing with the event along with her classmates, Stefan just watched from the sideline with his phone in hand. He would never miss taking pictures of his wife when a chance is being offered. He won’t exchange such opportunity for the world.

After the event, Stefan treated everyone to lunch since they help his wife accomplish another milestone in her life. He wanted to thank them for being there when she needed help.

.....

“You are so generous, Mr. Dumrique.”

Stefan: “No. My wife is the generous one.”

“You always help people whenever they are in need.”

Stefan: “No. My wife is the one who helps everyone.”

“Cayenne is very lucky to have you.”

Stefan: “No. I am the lucky man for having Ayen in my life.”

“Mr. Dumrique dotes on his wife so much.”

Stefan only smiled and kissed Cayenne’s knuckles in front of everyone. There was no need for words. Everyone can see how much he loves her.

After their lunch, Stefan brought Cayenne to the place that he wanted her to see the most. It was his surprise for her and he was very excited to see her reaction. As a husband who always thinks of his wife’s well-being, her reaction to everything he does means so much to him.

“Are we going to your office?” Cayenne asked when she saw the streets they were driving through. “You have pending work? Do you need help?”

“We’re not going to my office.”

“Then, where are we heading to?”

“To your office.”

Cayenne frowned at his words because she wasn’t sure if he was joking or not. After all, she didn’t have any office; nothing as far as she could remember.

“What’s with your expression?”

“It’s an expression of disbelief.” She retorted and made snorted. “I don’t have an office. So, stop lying and tell me where we are heading to.”

“I just said it. We are going to your office.”

“But I – wait! You’re kidding, right?” Cayenne asked with a wide smile forming on her lips. “I don’t have an office unless this is something about what you said last time.’

“About what?”

“About the office where I can store the things for fundraising events and at the same time organize events. Isn’t this about that?”

“It’s for you to find out.”

“No way! I am sure about this!”

Cayenne was already excited just by thinking of what was in store for her. She really wanted to see what was her office going to be like. Since it was Stefan who chose it, she was already expecting it to have a minimalist tone. Not that she was bothered with it since she likes his taste so much – be it the taste of his body or his taste on things.

About fifteen minutes later, Cayenne saw the building of Stefan’s company and her excitement vanished when she watched him drove to the parking space at the basement. He just said that they were going to her office but they arrived at his building.

“Why did you make fun of me?” Cayenne blurted and kicked his foot angrily. “You burst my bubbles.”

Stefan chuckled as he got out of the car but even when he came to open the door for her, Cayenne refused to come out. “C’mon, hon. I was not lying. I will bring you to your office.”

“No.”

“The office is within this building and there is another one beside the building which you can use for fundraising events.” Cayenne was still adamant to believe him but realizing the fact that he always tried to make her happy, she erased the thought of him pranking her. She told herself that Stefan would never do that.

And she was right!

Stefan led Cayenne to the 7th floor of the building and made a turn on the east wing. There, she saw Elena and Martin talking about something while Tristan sat on the bench typing something on his computer – a normal sight for Tristan.

“Good afternoon, boss. Good afternoon, Ms. Yen.” Elena greeted and was followed by Martin.

“Have you prepared everything?” Stefan asked as he walked to the huge double door.

“Yes, sir.”

Stefan nodded his head without stopping for a moment and opened one side of the door to let Cayenne inside. “Welcome to your office.”

Cayenne was extremely surprised that the place wasn’t of two colors. It has vibrant colors of green and white with some shade of yellow here and there. The furniture was white with little touches of green. It was cool to the eyes and wasn’t boring. There were some books to relieve her boredom and when she checked them, she found out that they came from her favorite authors.

Aside from the cozy mini living room, there was another door that led her to a huge wardrobe and there she saw the apparels that Monet and her classmates sent. Some of them were placed inside the glass panels while others have been placed inside a big box. It didn’t look like the warehouse that she imagined it would be. It was like a personal collection for her.

“I love this.” Cayenne muttered and hugged her husband who never left her side. “Hubby, I really, really love this.”

“You haven’t seen the fundraising venue yet.”

“For sure, I will also love it unconditionally. It is the fruit of your love and hard work.”

“So...” Stefan leaned closer and gently bit Cayenne’s ears. “do I get a prize tonight?”

At night, the chief of the village went to the orphanage and opened the door without even asking the children for permission. Even if they built the place, they still need to respect the children who live there. Following behind her were some of the people that Cayenne and Stefan met earlier as well.

“Take it out!” She ordered and the children hurriedly took out the things that Cayenne and her classmates brought earlier.

“Ari! Where is that bag you got earlier? I saw one of the ladies gave you a backpack.”

“But she said it is mine.”

The village chief pinched the boy’s face angrily and glared at him. “We brought you up with our labor. You have to pay us back for keeping you alive! Do you get me?!”

“Y-yes.” The little boy answered with tears hanging on his lashes. Despite the pain he felt, he refused to cry in front of the adults.

“Good!” She finally let go of him with a little push and grabbed the bag that Ari was holding. “Don’t ever try to hide anything from me.” And after what she did, the other villagers started taking whatever they like from the donations that the children received during the day. They took most of the clothes as well as the food which were meant for the children.

Unknown to them, the bodyguard that Stefan asked to investigate the village had seen this thing unfold in front of him. He was hiding behind the door of the male’s room. Nobody expected that they’d be exposed like this to the world.
