The Prince Who Cannot Fall In Love & The Missing Heiress

Fae stood in her place, looking dumbfounded for a good while, unable to believe her own sight. The guest just smiled broadly and waited patiently until Fae was moved from her reverie. The girl took a few moments to manage herself so as not to bounce in joy. She pursed her lips and then smiled back.

Fae had never seen Ren wear such casual clothes during the 7 months they knew each other. The man really looked like a student!

His youthful face seemed very fitting with jeans and a short-sleeved shirt. Ren also wore a sports cap, which completely transformed his image away from Prince Renald Hanenberg's.

"You said you could give me employee discount," said the man with a chuckle. He jokingly added, "I'm here for the discount."

Indeed Fae was enchanted by her husband. She almost rushed and hugged Ren, then kissed his lips tenderly. Today, Ren looked much more handsome than usual. Fae didn't think that this man could look so fresh and young.

So far, she was accustomed to seeing Ren wearing dark-colored formal attire to make himself look older than 22. His appearance was usually stiff and cold.

Today, he looked like a completely different person. Fae was sure that no one would have the slightest suspicion that the one sitting in this cafe was the crown prince of Moravia. She hid her sheepish smile and brought the handsome guest to one of the most secluded tables.

"Are you ready to order, Sir?" asked Fae, smiling sweetly. She subconsciously tidied her hair and apron after getting the menu back from Ren.

"I'll order the dishes you recommend," said Ren. "Surprise me."

"Ah .. okay. Then let me choose for you. You will like my recommendation." Fae pointed to some of the dishes and drinks on the menu, and Ren nodded. Finally, she took note of the 'guest's' order and went into the kitchen to hand it over to the chef.

Meanwhile, Ren took out his laptop and started working on the table. It looked like he was going to take his time at this cafe to do some work.

Fae was delighted to see Ren at the Magnolia Café, and her mood improved tremendously. She served the other guests who came with lighter steps and broader smiles. 

From time to time, she and Ren would steal glances and smile at each other. The two of them were delighted by today's events as if they were a pair of strangers who didn't know each other and trying to flirt while the beautiful waiter was at work.

Ren himself quickly caught the attention of the girls around him. The many female guests stole glances at him, as were the other waiters in the Magnolia Cafe.

They were jealous because Fae got to this handsome young man first and so she was the one who got lucky to serve him. Moreover, considering Fae was very beautiful, they felt it would be unfair to them. Fae already got all the attention of other guests, and now this guy too!

Ella, who heard the whispers among her peers, could only shrug. She wanted to tell them that Fae was married so that they didn't have to be jealous that Fae attracted the attention of all the handsome guest. However, since Fae asked her not to disclose the fact that Fae was married, Ella could only stay quiet and keep her thoughts to herself.

Ren stayed at Magnolia Café for almost two hours. He ordered a meal and drinks several times while working with his laptop. When he finally left, Ren left a huge tip for the beautiful waiter who had served him so well.

[You look so beautiful today. I'll stop by occasionally when I'm not uber busy.]

Fae smiled broadly as she read her husband's text. She felt really happy even though Ren didn't do anything special that day. He only came to Magnolia Cafe to be 'with her' amidst his busy schedule. Ren's office was located not far from Magnolia Café, so he took the opportunity to move his work location for two hours.

All this time, whenever Ren was outside the house to work, Fae could only stay at home and wait. The chance to see Ren outside the house at noon at the same place was enough to make Fae feel very happy.

Moreover, Ren took the time to change his appearance to avoid being recognized by the public. Ahh ... Fae loved her husband more and more. She felt very lucky!

"Why do you keep smiling? It looks like there is something really good happening to you ..." Ella asked, smiling at Fae's happy face.

The girl nodded. "Yes, I'm very happy. I just got a text from my husband."

Ella only looked at Fae with sympathy. She could see how much Fae loved her husband.

Ahh ... the other staff did not know that Fae could not possibly feel attracted to the handsome guest they saw earlier because it was obvious that she loved her husband so much.

Hmm .. it's a shame they didn't know Fae was married.

***

Several months passed so quickly. Fae was already used to her job and loved it very much. She did not mind serving guests and chatting with them. Lots of guests liked her, and they especially loved chatting with her in their own language.

The cafe sales increased as Magnolia Cafe became more and more in demand with existing customers coming in more and more frequently, and new customers who soon became regulars. All because of Fae.

Now even on certain days, there could be a long queue for guests to be able to get a table at Magnolia Café. The cafe staff and management could tell that it was all because of Fae. Magnolia Café had been opened for more than ten years, and this sort of thing only happened after the girl started working there.

Meanwhile, Ren, who had thought Fae would be bored or tired after a few weeks and would want to quit, now found that Magnolia Café was becoming more and more successful, while Fae still didn't look like she wanted to quit her job.

Initially, the man spent a lot of money buying the cafe to make it easier for Fae to get good work shifts, and to make sure that Fae wouldn't be treated badly by management. He already considered the money he spent as money to burn. He didn't expect it to come back.

However, who would have thought, now the money intended for burning had turned into a profitable investment. When he saw the financial statements from Stevan by email, Ren could only shake his head and smile.

"Ah, Fae .. you are indeed special!" he muttered with a chuckle.

Thus, time flew by, just like that. Fae and Ren had a new dynamic in their lives. Fae enjoyed working outside the home and socializing, while Ren was increasingly busy with his work and state duties. They would always spend the night together, or sometimes Ren would stop by Magnolia Café.

Ren would always try to spend his weekends with Fae, but it didn't always work out. Sometimes he was forced to go abroad, and if that happened he had to leave Fae alone in Almstad.. It was impossible for him to take his wife with him on state duties because no one knew Ren was married.
