Chapter 278 - FOOLING THEM
After lunch, Stefan and Cayenne should have gone to the mall and buy things for Luiz but the man that they wanted to surprise was coming along with them so, they decided to watch a movie instead.
Stefan let them choose what movie they like to watch while he bought a small box of popcorns and bottled water. They just finished their lunch so a small snack was more than enough.
The men that Arthur sent were still following them. They also bought the same movie tickets that Cayenne and Luiz bought. As for Clara's uncle, he decided to follow Kyle, thinking that he had lesser guards which means more opportunities to get him.
The three of them watched the animated movie which lasted for almost two hours. After watching the movie, they got out of the cinema and went to the nearest dessert store.
"We just ate not long ago. Why are we buying desserts?" Cayenne asked Stefan who was currently looking at the cakes and other desserts in front of them. "Just so you know, I'm not craving for anything."
"You're not craving it for now but you will want to eat it later." Luiz told his sister.
"Don't make it sound like I'm a glutton." Cayenne nudged her brother and poked his head.
"It doesn't matter if you're a glutton. I can feed you for the rest of our life." Stefan stated and gave her a playful wink.
"Gluttony is a sin, idiot." Cayenne let him do whatever he wanted and look for a place to sit while waiting.
Stefan bought different slices of the cakes being sold as well as different kinds of doughnuts. He bought a lot. "Don't think too much. I'm giving some of these to the people in the villa."
"We're visiting your father and grandfather?"
"It's our father and our grandfather, my dear."
"Yeah. I know." Cayenne rolled her eyes and took some of the boxes from him. Luiz took the other boxes as well to help Stefan.
"Am I coming over, too?" Luiz asked them. "You can just drop me somewhere. I'll just call Erwin to come and pick me up."
"You're coming with us. We'll be sleeping over at the villa since you don't have any class tomorrow." Stefan mentioned and intentionally made his voice louder this time. He knew that they were being followed so, he was planning to let them reach another dead end.
Luiz and Cayenne didn't know that it was just a plot made by Stefan to let their stalker fail. The three of them left the mall and walked to the parking lot. The men didn't show up immediately so, Stefan took his time to arrange the cakes at the backseat with Luiz.
When they showed up and got inside their car already, Stefan get into his own vehicle and drove out of the parking lot. "Is it just me or are we being followed?" Cayenne asked her husband when she noticed that a car was tailing them few meters behind the guards' vehicles.
"We are being followed. If I am right, they don't intend to do anything harmful as of now. They're just waiting for the right opportunity. Anyway, we're not really staying over in the villa. We're just changing vehicles there." Hearing Stefan's words, Luiz took a deep breath and sigh with relief. "You don't like to meet my family?" Stefan asked Luiz while watching him through the rearview mirror."
"It's not that I don't like them but I am just nervous to meet them."
"Don't worry, they won't do anything bad or say anything bad against you." Stefan reassured him. Of course, they won't. After getting acknowledgement from them, Stefan was the voice of the whole family now.
He continued to drive and after almost half an hour of driving, they arrived at the entrance of the huge property where the villa was located. There was a guard at the main gate of the property and he knows all the vehicles that belongs to whichever family owns a property inside the huge space of land. When the car that belongs to Arthur's men wanted to follow them inside, the guard stopped them.
The driver opened his window and looked towards the guards in irritation. "Excuse me, sir. This is a private property. Can I have your ID and lot number so I can ask the house owner to verify your visit?"
"I am with Stefan Dumrique! He asked me to come and follow him closely! How could you ask me these stupid questions?!" He acted aggressive and rightful but the guard wasn't the moved at all.
"Mr. Dumrique didn't give me a go signal about you when he passed by here."
"Are you serious?! That idiot didn't tell you about me?"
"Yes, sir. But I can call them for you instead to make some clarification."
"There's no need." The driver waved his hand in dismissal. "I'll call him myself." He made a U-turn and left the gate. They decided to wait for them to come out and had parked their car few kilometers from the main gate.
Stefan didn't inform his family that he'd be coming over so, they had no idea that they have arrived. Magnus and Ferdinand actually left the villa to play golf with friends. Once they arrive, they'd only see the cakes that Stefan brought for them.
Luiz was actually happy that Stefan's family wasn't around. He was very nervous on the way to the villa but now that they weren't home, he's nerves has finally relaxed.
"To all the guards, you go out of the property through the north gate. There's no need to change vehicles. Let's meet in Cayenne's house later."
"Yes, sir." The guards left first since they'll be leaving through the north gate.
Stefan chose another low-key car from the garage and the three of them boarded it. When they got out through the main gate, the men who were waiting for them didn't know that their target already passed by them.
"Idiots." Stefan mumbled in amusement.
