Chapter 352 – TREATING THE STUDENTS TO LUNCH
Stefan's happiness was very simple. All he needed was to stay with her, talk with her, laugh with and do happy things with her. As long as he's with her, he's completely satisfied.
The two of them rode several rides together and took pictures together until one hour was over.
Along with the students, Chris booked a restaurant where everyone can eat together. Each table can cater four people so, everyone went in groups of four and took one table. As the adults, Chris, Rissy, Cayenne and Stefan took another table and stayed together. The bodyguards went in groups of four as well and made sure to spread out evenly to watch over the students. And being considerate as they were, the three van drivers were also included.
"I didn't expect that we'd all eat outside. The money I brought for the students wouldn't suffice for their meals here." Rissy commented while whispering to Chris. "We could actually go back home and just cook our own food." She added while glancing towards Cayenne and Stefan who weren't really paying attention to them.
Chris leaned over and whispered back, "It's not me who booked this. It's Stefan. Since he's decided to take the students out, don't think too much about it."
"I can't stop feeling guilty." Rissy replied with a helpless smile. "Can I pay half of the bill instead? I can take it out from my salary. I don't mind."
"Stefan will feel bad if you do that and Cayenne will certainly think too deeply into this if you pay for it. Don't worry, they wouldn't take this against you."
The two of them continued to whisper back and forth and even though Cayenne and Stefan knew what Rissy was worried of, they didn't say anything. 'Let Chris handle the rest.' The two of them thought and was once again immersed in their own little world.
"Just order whatever you like." Cayenne stated with a sly grin on her face. "It will be on Mr. Dumrique's tab." She added while looking at the students around them.
Stefan looked at her with a deep frown. "Why am I paying for this? Aren't you paying for our lunch?"
"Huh? Why me?" Cayenne retorted. "Why are you making me pay for the lunch?"
"Because I don't have my card. Didn't I give it to you?"
Cayenne was at loss for words and could only blink her eyes at him. The students giggled while watching the two of them exchanging their words.
"You still have many cards in your wallet. You can use them to pay."
"I want you to pay. At least use my card to pay for something. I never received any notifications of you using it."
"I used it to pay for the bills of the two houses, okay? You just didn't read the message from your bank."
"Oh? You did?"
"I did and don't play dumb with me. I know you noticed it." Cayenne rolled her eyes at him and took the menu that the waitress handed to them. "Do you want to look at the menu with me or am I ordering for us?" she asked him while flipping the pages of the menu.
"I'm looking at it with you."
The two of them quickly changes the subject of their conversation which made the other students shake their head. Since the were single, they couldn't really relate much to this sweet couple in front of them.
Knowing that they're being treated for another free meal, the students felt a little guilty just like their teacher. And because of this, they decided to pick one dish for each person and just share it with the others. In that way, they can eat four different dishes. After all, the servings were really good for three to four people.
As soon as their food was served, they started eating while chatting with their friends. Rissy and Cayenne talked about Luiz and what kind of students was he under her care.
But nothing was surprising at all. Luiz had never done anything that would cause stress to his teacher or that would bring trouble to his classmates.
"Have you noticed if he likes someone in school?" Cayenne asked even though she knew it already. She just wanted to know if Rissy has observed the same thing before.
Rissy turned her head to look at her students and found Luiz happily chatting with Sean while Clarisse sat beside him. She looked really different to how she was before but she looked better compared to her gloomy past. She looked back towards Cayenne and smiled. "I'm not really sure and I have no confirmation either but he seemed to care about Clarisse a lot. Sometime, I'd hear Sean teasing him about her but given that they were still young, I didn't pay much attention to it."
Cayenne nodded her head in agreement. "I like that girl but just like what you said, they're still young. Things might change in the future but I'm hoping it won't."
The ladies were busy talking while the gentlemen were busy serving them from time to time. Stefan was currently removing the shells of the shrimps for Cayenne while Chris was busy getting meet from the lobsters. As long as these sea food dishes were served in a restaurant, expect Cayenne to order them and expect Stefan to peel off the shrimps for her.
After eating their lunch, it was already few minutes past one in the afternoon. They all walked back to their cars in order to go back to Stefan's vacation house. They still needed to plan for their surprise later.
Stefan and Cayenne got inside their car while waiting for Luiz and Clarisse. Stefan looked at his wife and grinned at her. "Wifey, what ice cream flavors do you want to eat later?"
"Vanilla or strawberry. Either of the two."
"Then, let's have both. It will be exciting to have two different flavors." Cayenne glared at him knowing he's got something naughty in his mind again. But she had no idea that there's more to what she had guessed.
