Chapter 311 - BUSTED
Arthur hurried back to his apartment but before he arrived, he felt that something wasn't right. He made sure to keep everything in place in his apartment, checked every item that might leak or those that might explode. He even checked the apartment room under his to see if there was any leakage. It was to prevent any accident from happening that will make the landlord contact him.
Now that he was contacted by him, Arthur didn't come home directly. Instead, he parked his car in one of the nearby cafés and hailed a taxi cab to observe what was happening in his apartment. His room was facing the road so he can see it clearly even if he was quite some distance from it.
When he arrived at the main gate of the apartment complex, he saw his mother's car. His face turned cold and there was madness flashing in his eyes. When he looked towards his apartment, it seemed like nothing was wrong with it but Arthur knew his place very well. He pulled out his phone and took a picture of his door and zoomed it in.
When he left, he placed pasted a small black tape on the door and the door frame. It has a little bit of tear on the center so if someone opens his door and get inside his room, that tape will be torn in half. Right now, the picture on his phone showed it was torn.

"Police officer, I have called him. He said that he's on his way." The landlord told the police officer who's leading the team to investigate this matter.
"Thank you for your cooperation. Don't say anything else to him. We'll be catching him by surprise."
Little did they know, Arthur has left and was aware of what was happening already. He just didn't know that there were police officers waiting for him. It can be said that he escaped with a sliver of luck in hand.
The police officers waited and waited, waited and waited until the clock struck midnight. With the hours passing by, they knew that their target was aware of what has happened. And since he escaped they raised the level of this investigation.
"Are you really arresting my son?"
"We need to apprehend him and bring him to jail for questioning. He might not have done something harmful but you can already see that he was planning to do something. And if he's innocent, he should've showed himself here. In any case, if proven that he's not going to use those things for a crime-related incident, we won't be imprisoning him." Police Officer David answered Kirin who had been crying since earlier.
As a mother, she must have an idea that her son was obsessed over someone and when she talked it over with him, her son ran away. Looking at her haggard expression, Officer David felt sorry for the mother.
Police Officer David trusted two of his men to stay and monitor the place in case Arthur showed up once again. As for the rest, they left the apartment complex and went back to the police station to sort out the report of what they found inside Arthur's apartment room.
If someone would tell David that their target was a psycho, he wouldn't argue with that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOn the other hand, after he left the place earlier and went back to his car, Arthur was now driving aimlessly in the city. He didn't know what to do. He planned everything in order to get Cayenne but not it was ruined. Someone ruined his plan but he didn't know who. At first, he thought it would be Seiji but he also dismissed this idea because he thought that Seiji wouldn't bother himself with things like this.
And that's where Arthur was wrong. Seiji won't be bothered if Arthur wants to harm someone but since it involves Cayenne, he wouldn't just sit around and wait for harm to befall her. He would destroy everything and everyone who wants to harm her and make her live a happy life that she deserves because that's what you should do for someone you love so dearly.
The next morning, Cayenne woke up and felt Stefan's hands wrapped around her waist. She picked up her phone on top of her drawer and checked the time. It was still early so she didn't get out of bed yet. She just decided to read the messages she received and one that struck her the most was the message from Cole.
It was the news about Arthur's apartment and the what they have discovered inside. If before Cayenne defended Arthur for being such a nice guy in the past, this time, she felt goosebumps all over her.
Apparently, when Kirin found the address of her son, she informed Cole about it. She even took pictures of what it was like inside the room and sent it to him, asking him to tell Cayenne to be careful. Kirin wasn't asking her to be careful for Cayenne's safety but for the safety of her son.
If something happens to Cayenne, Arthur will be damned for the rest of his life. If nothing happens to Cayenne, they can still run away and live in a place far, far from them.
Cayenne sighed and placed her phone back on the drawer. So many things have happened and she couldn't remember anymore when did things go wrong between her and Arthur.
"Whatever." She muttered and shifted her body to the other side in order to face her husband. 'I chose this guy to be the person that I'd spend the rest of my life with. Arthur should move on, too. If he won't, well…it's not my fault.' Cayenne thought to herself and hugged Stefan. Seeing that he was still asleep, she stole one quick kiss on his lips before burying her face on his chest.
