She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 333 - CAUGHT UNPREPARED

Kath looked at the people around her and she couldn't believe that she's surrounded with so many known figures in the public. She secretly took pictures of Jillyanna and Travis who made her feel so envious of their relationship. Jillyanna was holding her little son while Jade was sitting on her left side. On her right was her husband, Travis, was feeding her from time to time while she played with her son.

Shein and Riley were subtly flirting as well. And because she's a celebrity who didn't show off her relationship to the public, Kath didn't take pictures of them. She didn't want to start rumors of the young couple.

There was David, too. A famous hairstylist and make-up artist. He's widely known by many celebrities and many artists sought him. He's also a fashion designer who opened up his own fashion line in New York.

Aside from that the business magnate whose almost equal to the Madrigal's wealth, Stefan's family, was also present. There were many big shots around but none of them talked about business. They were just like normal people who were relaxing and having fun with everyone.

Kath has forgotten that her family was also wealthy compared to the average people. Well, she never thought of herself as wealthy because the money she has and has been using weren't hers. They were the money that her brothers worked so hard for.

She leaned close to Kyle and whispered. "I didn't know that you knew a lot of bigwigs." She told him while looking around her.

"It's because of my sister and Stefan that we became good friends with them. At the same time, your brother knows a lot of people, too. You just didn't know it because you never paid attention to their work."

"Ah!" Kath exclaimed and slapped her forehead. "I forgot something." She rummaged her bag and took a business card which was from her brother, Kai. "My brother asked if you guys wanted to work part-time this summer. There's a modeling job and he thought that you're suited to do it with Luiz."

"Me and Luiz?" Kyle asked in surprise. "I'm not so sure about that."

"Why don't you give it a try?" Stefan told Kyle. "You won't be doing much during summer so, why don't you try working on that field. Modeling should be easy for you since you have a good temperament, good body and a handsome face. You can sell your smiles."

"Is that really okay?" Kyle looked at his sister. "Do you agree? You always disagree with us looking for part-time jobs before."

"If you like it, I think it's fine." Cayenne replied before turning to her father. "What do you think about it, Pa?"

"You started working when you were young. It's time for these boys to experience what's it like to work." Jonas responded.

And since they all agreed to it, Kyle didn't say anything anymore. Luiz was just listening to the conversation and was relieved that his family agreed. He can finally start earning his own money.

"I will inform my brother about this so that you guys can talk." Kath stuffed the business card to her boyfriend's hand with a smile. "I'll be with you if you decide to accept it."

"Then, I'll accept it so that we can be together."

As the fun continued, other latecomers arrived. Rissy Chan came with Chris with a small gift for her excellent student. Luiz was very happy to see his teacher and he enthusiastically talked with her.

"Teacher, you were the one who deal with that Governor's award, weren't you?" Luiz asked while leading his teacher to another table.

"Hn. I thought that you were still in need of money and scholarships for college so I sent your grades and achievement profile to the governor's office, hoping that you will be selected for the award. And I'm so glad that I did."

"Thank you, teacher. I am so happy that I am giving my sister less burden now. I was always worried that she'd overworked herself so I was really looking forward to getting scholarships with my grades."

"But your sister, I mean, she's married now, right? Does she still work?"

"Hn. She works in her husband's company but it's just a little work that she needed to do. My brother-in-law just wanted to spend more time with her so he brings her to the company."

"I'm so happy that your family is getting better now. I was really worried that your situation will affect your studies. Thank goodness, everything's falling into right places."

Luiz talked to his teacher for few more minutes and when he's reassured that she has rested enough, he told them to enjoy themselves with the food and drinks. Since Chris was with her, Rissy didn't feel out of place.

However, someone who just came back from nowhere was now sulking on the side. He didn't expect to see him with a woman the moment they see each other again.

David drank his juice and emptied his glass before wiping his lips. "Excuse me for a moment." He told those people around his table and stood up from his seat. He went to Cayenne's table where her family was chatting and bid goodbye to them.

"You're leaving already?" Cayenne questioned. "Sorry for letting you see them." Cayenne stated when she realized that David must have wanted to avoid Chris and Rissy.

"It's fine. I know he'll find someone in his life. I just didn't expect it to come sooner. Anyway, I won't be running away this time. I'll come and visit you guys when I'm not busy."

"Sure. I don't mind. Give me a call once you are home." Cayenne reminded as he sent him off. Seeing his expression, it was obvious that he was still hurt from the rejection. Although they couldn't really do anything about that since Chris wasn't into men.

When Cayenne came back to her seat, she found Chris standing beside Stefan. "I wasn't seeing things, right? He's come back." Chris asked in which they all nodded. "Is he still mad at me?"

"No, he's not. Don't worry. The next time you meet him, he'll be able to face you head on." Cayenne told Chris. Yet in her mind, she was really hoping that David will be able to face Chris without any lingering pain in his chest.
