Chapter 306 - CONFESSION

The three of them left the restaurant in flurry led by Cayenne. They went back inside Stefan\'s car and drove out of the place to find a new place to eat.

"That was close!" Cayenne put her hand on her chest, feeling the wild beating of her heart. "I didn\'t know they\'d be eating in that place, too."

"Well, that was the nearest restaurant so, it\'s not really shocking to see them there." Stefan told his wife. His other hand was holding the steering wheel, driving the car with his eyes on the road while his other hand was patting Cayenne\'s head in a gentle manner.

Jonas just chuckled at his stepdaughter\'s flustered face. She was really anxious that their surprise will be busted before the graduation. Thankfully, she was able to react quickly.

After traveling for another fifteen minutes, they found another decent restaurant which offers variety of dishes. Stefan parked his car and stepped out of the car with his wife and Jonas.

This time, Cayenne was no longer anxious. She strode inside the restaurant with Stefan\'s hand placed on her waist. "Shall we eat upstairs or just here on the first floor?" She asked him while looking the interior of the place.

"Let\'s go upstairs."

The waitress who welcomed them, led the group of three to the second floor of the restaurant. It has a better view compared to the ground floor and it was a lot quieter as well. You will feel having a private space even though the second floor was still an open space.

Stefan pulled a chair for Cayenne and settled her first before taking a seat next to her. Jonas was sitting across them thinking how awkward it was to be a chaperone for two adults on a date. Although, it wasn\'t really date.

The waitress handed them the menu and as usual, Cayenne ordered the food for Stefan as well.

He enjoyed watching her choose the dishes that he likes because it shows how much she knows him and how much she cares for him. Afterall, she already noted what were the things he personally hates and the things that he was allergic to.

While the three of them were having peacefully, Chris was also enjoying himself. It was seldom to have a long vacation specially with all the work that he needed to handle. Although his work wasn\'t really that difficult because he\'s got an assistant who helps him make things easier, he also needed to pay attention to illegal trading that happens in City A and report it to Hawk or Valkyrie.

Yesterday, he finished all his works and gave Stefan the documents that needed his signature or the proposals from the marketing department. After dealing with his work for Stefan, he emailed the analyzed date he gathered from his intel who worked with an underground gang who deals with illegal firearms. After sending it, he deleted all the traces from his computer and asked Shein to double check if there were any clues left and had him delete them as well.

Now, he\'s free and was having a happy meal with Rissy. It\'s Saturday and he was doubting earlier if she\'s free and if she\'s willing to have lunch with him. He knows that she goes to X University every Saturday to deal with paper works for the graduating students and helped with the preparation as well. Before he went there, he even called Luiz to confirm that she was around.

"I heard that the student will have an afterparty. Are you coming with them?" Chris asked while forking his carbonara.

"Of course. I\'m their class adviser. It will be irresponsible of me if I won\'t come and watch over their safety."

"But, after the graduation you are no longer their adviser, right?" Chris retorted to see how she would react to that and what her thoughts were.

Rissy hand which was trying to pick some scallops paused midair. But it didn\'t take her a long time to continue getting what she wanted and thought of this question over her mind. "It\'s true that I won\'t be their class adviser anymore once they graduate from high school. At the same time, I was the one who agreed with this event first. I was the one who asked permission from the principal and I was the one who talked to the parents. Along with Mr. and Mrs. Dumrique, other parents also entrusted their children to me. And I love my students. They\'ve always been good and they never gave me any headache. I want to ensure their safety one last time before we\'ll part our ways."

Listening to her words, Chris smiled and nodded his head. "If all teachers are like you, no students will drop out from school."

Rissy\'s face flushed and she lowered her head to hide her blush. "Don\'t think so highly of me. I\'m just a normal teacher."

"Alright. If you say so, I won\'t argue with you."

Rissy lowered her head even more, almost having her nose touch the surface if her plate. \'This guy is making me like him even more.\' She told herself without looking at him.

"Why are you not saying anything? Did I say something wrong?" Chris put down his spoon and fork; his tone was of worry and panic.

This made Rissy raise her head in an instant and shook her profusely to deny what he was asking. "You didn\'t do anything. I was … I was just thinking that you\'re such a good man. I\'m glad that Luiz was surrounded by good people like you."

"You\'re a good teacher, too. And a teacher is the second parent to a child. After leaving home to study, he was under your guidance. It was also part of your teaching that our little Luiz grew up into a fine young man."

Whenever he opens his mouth and compliment her, her heart would beat like crazy. It was like a beast trying to come out of from the cage of her chest.

"Ms. Chan, I don\'t want to play a roundabout game with you." Chris took out the jewelry he bought when he shopped with Cayenne and Stefan last time, and placed it on the table. He pushed it off slowly towards her and gave her the gentlest smile he could muster. Even though he was smiling, his heart was shaking anxiously. "I like you."
