Chapter 651:
With that, Domenic drove off, leaving Bella stomping her feet in anger. Her resentment towards Yelena intensified. If it weren’t for Yelena, perhaps Domenic would have let her into the car.
Suddenly, Bella spotted Cayson from the corner of her eye.
She quickly walked over to him and said, “What a coincidence, Cayson! I just ran into Yelena, and now I see you here.”
Cayson blinked in surprise and began scanning the area. “You saw Yelena? Where is she?”
Bella replied, “She left in a man’s car. I wanted to ask what was going on, but…”
“But what?” Cayson asked, his eyes narrowing with displeasure.
“But she pushed me away and acted so strangely. I have no idea what’s going on.”
Bella wasn’t entirely wrong. Yelena indeed left in someone else’s car and shoved her aside.
Cayson furrowed his eyebrows with concern.
He pulled out his phone and dialed Yelena’s number. Almost immediately, she answered.
“Cayson?”
Cayson asked, “Yelena, where are you right now?”
“I’m on my way to meet with a friend and we’ll have dinner together. I’ve already informed Mom, so she knows.”
Cayson fought to keep his tone steady as he continued. “Who are you with? Is it Austin?”
Yelena replied, “Yes, it’s him. I helped him with something today, and he wanted to treat me to dinner.”

Cayson said, “Alright. Enjoy your dinner. Just make sure you’re back by nine. It’s not safe for you to be out too late.”
Yelena agreed—returning too late could be risky. However, she wasn’t concerned for herself. Those who might try to harm her, rather, would be the ones at risk.
“Understood.”
Cayson hung up the phone, still feeling restless.
Yelena was such a sweet girl, and that only made Cayson worry more. He feared that her naivety might make her vulnerable to Austin’s wiles.
“Cayson, what’s the matter? Did Yelena explain what was going on?” Bella asked.
Cayson glanced at Bella and suddenly had an idea. “Come on, let me take you out to dinner.”
Bella immediately understood Cayson’s intention but was happy to go along.
In her mind, interrupting Yelena and Austin’s date would give her immense pleasure.
Shortly afterward, Domenic escorted Yelena to the rooftop of the restaurant, a private area reserved exclusively for VIP guests with reservations.
Today, Austin was the only guest in the restaurant.
As Yelena approached, Austin rose to his feet, pulled out a chair for her, and gestured for her to sit.
Yelena looked around, clearly impressed by the setting. Above them was a vast expanse of transparent glass, offering a breathtaking panoramic view of the starry sky.
The restaurant was also encircled by vibrant flowers, creating a romantic ambiance.
Any passerby would have easily assumed they were on a date.
