She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 187 - THE PRESIDENT DIDN\'T GET ANGRY BY HER INSOLENCE

\'Is her backer so strong that she didn\'t mind offending the boss?\'

\'Did she lose her mind?\'

\'Is this what happens when she\'s prohibited to eat sweets that she loves the most?\'

"Will our little Yenyen die?\'

Different opinion, different thoughts but most of them were concerned for Cayenne. After all, as long as you don\'t do anything against her, she\'s really friendly and helpful. She\'s not very close to everyone but she\'s not their enemy either. She just treated everyone in a neutral disposition, making sure that she didn\'t step on them.

Stefan looked at his wife. He clearly heard the whispers earlier but he didn\'t pay any attention to it. Yet now, his little daredevil asked him such thing.

Everyone thought that Cayenne will lose her job after this matter but another surprise came.

Stefan stretched his hand and lightly pinched Cayenne\'s face. "What nonsense are you talking about? Someone\'s eyeing my secretary already and I support them but it\'s up to him if he takes up the offer. As for your wild imagination, I\'ll put a stop to it because I love my girlfriend and I\'m planning to marry her."

"My face hurts." Cayenne mumbled and swatted his hand away. It was another form of insolence in the eyes of other people but Stefan wasn\'t bothered by it at all.

"If you know it would hurt, why did you ask?"

"Just curious."

"Curiosity kills the cat." Stefan retorted with a faint smile. "But I don\'t mind it when it\'s my girlfriend who\'s asking." He added in whisper before putting food in his mouth.

He could hear collected whisper from everyone, as if they were all relieved that nothing happens to his little devil. Well, they were indeed relieved.

"Are you friends with everyone here?" Stefan asked her after swallowing the shrimp that he took from her.

"Huh? Of course, I\'m friend with them."

"Then, what about that Melody?"

"That? We\'re not really close and I didn\'t treat her differently as well. I don\'t know why she did that horrible thing."

"Have you ever thought that she might have been jealous?"

"What is she jealous about? She\'s jealous of me being poor?"

"No, she\'s jealous of you being pretty."

"Thank you, boss."

"You\'re welcome."

They continued to eat their food and talked about different things. And because they couldn\'t understand their world, Luna and Chris just stayed silent and ate their food without minding the lovebirds in front of them.

"Is it just me or is there a weird atmosphere between the President and Cayenne?" one of the employees asked her colleagues. "When you carefully observed them, they\'re actually awfully close to each other and there were times that Yen glared at the boss."

"It\'s just your imagination. I bet my one-month salary, Cayenne will be so nervous later after this conversation." Jessi, who knew the relationship of the two, tried to negate the opinion of her colleague because the boss didn\'t want any other people to know about their relationship.

"Is that so?"

The employees who ate with them at this time were just observing. Stefan finished his food first and excused himself. Chris followed him and the two of them went to his suite to discuss business. He was already relieved to see that she was indeed fine. He didn\'t want to see her sad and specially when it was caused by some unimportant people.

Jessie approached Cayenne after eating with a faint smile on her face. "Nervous?" she asked her with a wink to signal her in going along with her act.

\'Does she know?\' Cayenne asked this question mentally but she still went along with her. "I was and still am." She replied to her. "There were so many seats available and he just had to choose this place."

"Don\'t fall for his charm or you will be his next meal."

Somehow, Mona\'s words, her co-receptionist when she worked during the night shift before, echoed in her mind. Mona told her to guard her heart and never gave it to someone like their boss or to their boss himself. She was confident that it won\'t happen because the boss doesn\'t date his employees. Look at her now?

She looked straight into Jessie\'s eyes and gave her a lovely smile. "I\'ll guard my heart. And besides, I love my boyfriend."

Luna could only roll her eyes at her friend. "Of course, you do." \'Didn\'t he just eat with you?\' she added mentally. "It\'s really hard being in a secret relationship."

"It\'s fine." Cayenne retorted. "We\'re both happy anyways." She stood up from her seat and returned the trays to its respective place for the dishwasher to come and get it to wash. "Let\'s go back to work."

"Yes, lady boss." Luna whispered back her answer which made Cayenne blush.

"Don\'t call me that way. Someone might hear you." Luna nodded her head and even performed a zipping action on her mouth. "By the way, Jessie used to work at night right, when did she changed her shift?"

"Few days ago, but I don\'t know why." Luna replied. "You can talk to her later."

"I\'ll do that."

Work resume; both the husband and wife were working diligently while some people still gossiped about them. They didn\'t care about it. On the other hand, Magnus and Clara went to Clover Hotel to find Stefan. It was the second time for them to step inside his suite and the latter was extremely nervous. She had no one else to approach for help when her family was being destroyed. She couldn\'t just sit still and watch them being imprisoned and getting involved in different scandalous matter.

"Sir, your parents are here." Chris announced.

"Let them in." Stefan responded with the most boring tone in the world. He didn\'t even look at them when they got inside because he was busy looking into the enemy\'s business. "What do you want?" he asked without raising his head to face them. "Be quick because I\'m busy."

"Stefan…Stefan, please help me. Please help my family. I really need your help."
