She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 342 - LEARNED NEW THINGS ABOUT THEM

It was almost eight in the evening when Stefan woke up. He felt so happy knowing that Cayenne stayed and waited for him to wake up. He raised his head and found Cayenne looking at him.

"Did I wake you up?" Cayenne asked with a guilty expression. She's been massaging his scalp so, she thought that she woke him up.

Stefan stole a kiss from her lips and grinned at her. "I just thought my wife will be lonely if I continue to sleep."

"Nonsense. I wouldn't feel lonely even if you continue to sleep until the next evening." Cayenne retorted instantly with her raised eyebrow.

Stefan frowned and pouted a little. "Why is that?"

"Because you're here with me."

Stefan was stunned with her simple answer and the smile on his face wouldn't stop spreading. He was grinning from ear to ear once again. "I love my wife so much."

"I love my husband, too."

The two of them flirted for a little while before deciding to go downstairs and check on the kids. The students who brought their tents have already set them up at the beach and there were logs prepared for a campfire.

"Good evening, Mr. and Mr. Dumrique." greeted the students one after another when they saw them coming out of the house. Stefan nodded at them and Cayenne smiled. They looked approachable unlike those other rich people who felt disgusted when mingling with commoners.

"Are you guys having fun?" Cayenne asked them as she sat on the chaise lounge beside her brother.

"Yes. Thank you so much for the accommodation." The students answered happily.

Cayenne was also happy to see them happy. Beside her, Luiz was scrolling on his phone. "Sis, look at this." Luiz showed her his phone and what was in there was a picture of Kyle and Jonas.

The two of them were left in City A and they thought that they're staying at home. Now, they found out that the two went to have their own trip as well. They visited lots of place and at the end, they stayed in a resort to chill and relax.

"Well, it's good to see them having fun." Cayenne commented. "Are you jealous because you're not there with them?"

"Nope. They can have fun on their own and I'll have fun here as well. Once we go back, I can catch up with them."

"That's right." Cayenne replied and rubbed her brother's head. "I'll go back and cook dinner. Stefan must be hungry."

"O-okay."

Cayenne stood up and walked back to the house to prepare dinner in the kitchen. She had forgotten her promise that she won't leave his side for more than three meters and now Stefan was thrown in panic.

He was just talking to Chris about some business matter and he wasn't worried because Cayenne was just there talking with her brother. However, when he looked back to find her, she was gone. He looked around to find Cayenne but he couldn't find her.

"Have you seen Ayen?" Stefan asked Chris just in case he noticed where she goes.

"Ah? She was just talking with Luiz earlier."

"Where's Luiz?" Stefan looked for his brother-in-law who seemed to disappear as well. "Have you seen Luiz?" Stefan asked one of the students.

"Luiz? He's there." One of the students pointed to a figure, swimming in the pool.

Stefan went to the other side of the pool where Luiz was heading to and stood up there, waiting for him to emerge from the water. "Where's my wife?"

Luiz was still wiping the water off of his face when he heard the question. "Didn't she go to the kitchen to cook dinner for you?"

Without responding to Luiz, Stefan jogged towards the house in worry. He went directly to the kitchen and found Cayenne standing at the table with her hands on her hips as she looked at the ingredients in front of her.

"He's become paranoid again." Luiz commented which piqued the student's curiosity.

"Paranoid? Does that happen a lot?" Chloe asked Luiz while looking at the direction of the house.

"It happens when he couldn't see my sister. They almost broke up before and my sister even signed a divorce paper that my brother-in-law didn't know of. That scared the hell out of him and he had to pursue my sister once again. And recently, my sister got involved in an accident and he was so scared he'd lose her."

"Isn't he too dependent to your sister? Where's his pride as a man?" one of the males students asked with a deep frown. To most men, pride was like a second skin to them. They'd rather lose anything than letting someone trample over their pride.

Luiz chuckled at this question which made everyone looked at him in a weird way. "Pride? My brother-in-law doesn't have such thing when it comes to my sister. He'd rather lose his pride than lose her."

"That's so sweet."

"Your sister is very lucky to have him."

"No, it's Stefan who's lucky to have her." Chris commented on the side while listening to Luiz. Everything Luiz had said was true and he knew it because he witnessed all of it. "Stefan is indeed a prideful man but he wouldn't let his pride took over his feelings for his wife. After all, he never depended on anyone except for her."

The students outside learned new things about Stefan and Cayenne and they were even more envious of their strong feelings and relationship.

On the other hand, Stefan was hugging Cayenne in the kitchen. It's been over five minutes and he wasn't letting go of her. "I'm really sorry. I thought it's fine since this is your property. And why were you panicking again instead of thinking rationally. There's no way I'd leave you alone, okay?"

"I forgot this is my property. I even forgot to call my bodyguards. I was so scared I couldn't think properly. I just knew I needed to find you." There was a trace of fear and regret in his voice, which gripped Cayenne's heart. She didn't know how to assure him and make him feel secure.

"I'm sorry. I won't do it again."

"You promised the same thing last time but you suddenly left." Stefan retorted in pain. "Ayen, don't do it again, okay? I will really die if you leave me."

"Hn. Let's not leave each other's side. I won't leave you no matter what." Cayenne had to promise him again and again until he finally calmed down and let her go ten minutes later. "Would you like to make dinner with me?"
