Chapter 359 – COUSINS I
Cayenne and Stefan went back inside the house with Dominic following behind them. Stefan led him to the study room and let him sit on the couch. "Can you wait for us here? We'll just change our clothes."
"Okay, sir." Dominic replied and sat quietly. Stefan went out of the room once again and went back to the master's bedroom with his wife. Dominic was left alone and there were so many things running in his mind but he didn't know how to feel about it. 'If we ended up being relative, what would he do about us? Besides, Auntie didn't have a good life in our home before. What will happen?'
On the other hand, Cayenne hugged Stefan and kissed his lips while they're inside the bathroom taking a quick shower together.
"Why are you being so sweet all of sudden?" Stefan asked her as he placed his hands on her waist.
"What are you talking about? I'm always sweet to you."
"Weren't you kicking me earlier? And you were so happy doing it. You were bullying me." Stefan retorted with grievances. "You didn't even try to make it up to me after the six kicks you gave."
"I'm making it up to you now. And you knew I was cheating but you still went on for another round. It's not my fault."
Stefan knew that Cayenne was trying to comfort him on her own way. She's always awkward when it comes to this kind of matter but she always does her best. She wanted to make sure that he's fine. Stefan leaned his head on her shoulder and bit her a little.
"Meanie!" Cayenne yelped and tried pushing him. "I was kissing you and you bit me. That's not fair."
"I'm doing you a favor, sweetheart."
"What favor?"
"The favor of not making you stay in bed for the rest of the vacation. You know that if I start kissing you, there's not stopping until I can release everything right?"
"Tsk! You're just a beast in heat. Let finish showering quickly." Cayenne rolled her eyes helplessly and the two continued taking a shower without doing anything extra anymore.
After showering, Stefan and Cayenne dried their hair immediately and put on their clothes. After few minutes, they went back to the small entertainment room where Dominic was waiting for them.
"Let's talk about the Sugo family." Stefan started before he can even take a seat. Cayenne sat on the couch across Dominic and Stefan sat beside her. "It may be a coincidence for us to know the same person and we might not be related but I want to make sure, just in case."
"I understand, sir."
"So, what do you know about Latticia Sugo?"
Dominic recalled the information he got from his grandparents and father before telling them to Stefan. "She was no longer around when I was born into the family. All the information I have is just base on the things I heard from my grandparents and my father." Dominic took a deep breath and let it out, calming his nerves in the process. "Auntie was the eldest. She has one younger brother which is my father. Our family came from City H. And base on what they told me, auntie fell in love with someone. They didn't know about this person and she didn't introduce him either. Probably because the family she came from was poor."
"I thought she's from City D. How come you're from City H?" Stefan asked with a baffled expression on his face.
"As far as I know, she was supposed to go to college in City D. And she was meeting that man that she liked in City D. They both became lovers and my grandparents only knew about who this man was when she got pregnant. They said it was the most twisted kind of affair that they ever witnessed in their life. They didn't think that their one and only daughter will agree to become someone's mistress. It was shameful but since the deed was done, the couldn't do anything about it anymore. Soon, she gave birth and my grandparents were so happy to see her son even though he was a product of an immoral act – they loved him so much. Two months later, auntie was killed. It was hit and run accident and they all suspected that it was a crime committed by Auntie's lover to keep their relationship a secret. Later on, auntie's lover came. He took the son away and promised to take care of him since he's got fortunes to raise him. Our family was poor and they didn't have any means to raise you properly so, they agreed. Auntie's lover agreed for grandma and grandpa to come and visit the child sometimes but one week later, a woman came to them and told them to never show up their faces again. She gave them hush money but my father and grandparents didn't accept them. They were also threatened by that woman so, they didn't dare say anything to that man. They said that auntie's lover would come and visit them once in a while but they told him to stop coming because they were afraid to anger his wife. They were afraid that she'd vent her anger to their grandson who was in their territory. They stopped visiting auntie's grave as well. And eventually, my father got married and have me. I just knew this information because I kept asking them of the woman in the picture that I have never seen. And come to think of it, I'd always find my grandmother flipping financial magazines which features you. I never thought too much about it before."
"Do you have a picture of my mother?"
"I'm not sure but let me check my phone. I always keep a family photo in my gallery but – " he pulled out his phone and opened his gallery. He had so many pictures of his family and even though they were poor and the house they're living was small and simple, they looked very happy in his pictures. "Here it is." Dominic showed his phone to Stefan and Cayenne took a peek as well.
