She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 298 - NOTHING FROM ARTHUR

"Why are you here? Shouldn\'t you be in a meeting?" Cayenne asked Stefan who was walking behind her.

"I want to know where you\'re going?"

"I\'m going to the kitchen to get some fruits. I\'ll be right back. Just go and continue your meeting."

"You won\'t take long?"

"No, I won\'t take long." Cayenne smiled at him before turning around to continue walking downstairs. Stefan didn\'t immediately leave his place and watched his wife walked to the direction of the kitchen.

"Be careful with the knife." He reminded her before he finally lost sight of her.

After few minutes of absence, Stefan emerged on the screen once again. The board of directors were a bit worried of what has happened for him to suddenly left without saying anything. But looking at how serene and calm he was now, they also felt relaxed and thus; the meeting resumed.

Cayenne cut apples and oranges for the two of them. Erwin was busy removing weeds at the garden so she also prepared some sliced fruits for him.

Quarter of an hour has passed before she came back with a plate of fruits and two glasses of water. The two of them spent their time together inside the study room, doing different things at the same time.

At night, Cayenne had a video call with her brothers who told her that they\'d be coming home next weekend. She informed them that she\'d be out on Saturday, just making sure that they won\'t be buried if they couldn\'t find her at home.

Luiz already received his final grades and got his report card as well. He was showing it excitedly on the phone, letting her sister see his amazing grades.

"You are really smart. You got it after me." Cayenne shamelessly announced but Luiz still nodded his head in agreement. Usually, intelligence should be taken after the parents\' genes but ever since they were young, Cayenne acted more like a mother to them. It didn\'t make Emerald less of a mother to them but they just didn\'t spend so much time with her. And their father was also sent to jail.

"As for my grades, it will be given next week but I assure you sis, my grades good – no failing marks." Kyle also added. He promised that he won\'t let his relationship affect his studies and he\'s holding onto that promise, not wanting to disappoint Cayenne.

"Alright. You don\'t really have to achieve the top ranking. The most important thing is that you don\'t flunk your subjects."

"Dully noted." Both brothers answered her in unison.

They talked for a little while more while Stefan took a bath. In the middle of their conversation, Cayenne almost slipped her tongue and told them about Jonas. Thankfully, she was able to hold her horses and kept the secret firmly sealed.

When Stefan was done bathing, she bid farewell to her brothers and took a shower as well.

The next morning, she was a lot better and decided to come with Stefan to the company. She still had unfinished work there and although Chris came yesterday with documents, he didn\'t bring the documents that Cayenne needed to work on. Which means, she needed to go the office and do it.

"Good morning, ma\'am. Good morning, sir." The employees who met them at the lobby greeted them.

"Good morning." Cayenne greeted them back with a sweet smile while her husband remained stoic in front of them. Cayenne leaned close to him and whispered. "Why are you not smiling? You looked scary with that unhappy expression."

"But I\'m not happy." Stefan retorted while glancing at the men who were looking at his wife. "I don\'t like other men looking at you."

"You don\'t have to be grumpy about it. They can just look at me but they can\'t have me. I\'ll be yours and yours alone."

"I know. It\'s just…I feel…I feel a little jealous at times." Stefan mumbled which was only enough for Cayenne to hear.

She couldn\'t stop herself and stifled a giggle, holding her laughter deep inside her. "Hubby, don\'t be jealous, okay? I didn\'t even look at them. I was just looking at the girls."

Seeing the changing expressions on Stefan\'s face, the employees couldn\'t help but smile cheekily. Their boss can actually look silly and stupid sometimes. Although, he only shows these expressions when he\'s with his wife.

Days continued to pass by with Cayenne coming with Stefan to his company. She works like his assistant but most of the time, they\'ll be flirting in his office whenever Chris was around. Obviously, they\'re messing with the single secretary.

During these days, they always put their guards up, waiting for Arthur to come and strike them. When those stalkers stopped stalking them, they already knew that Arthur will be coming sooner or later but another week had passed without him showing his face.

Cayenne called Cole one time to ask if they heard anything about Arthur but he still didn\'t know where his brother was. Kirin was still looking for him but even the private investigator she hired couldn\'t find her son. It was as if he disappeared like a bubble bursting in the air.

Since Arthur wasn\'t making a move on them, Stefan and Cayenne lived their life in leisure. They didn\'t think that Arthur would be able to take them down with all the preparation they have. In everyone\'s mind, Arthur was going to abduct Cayenne in order to get her from Stefan.

In truth, Arthur was after something else in order to obtain her.
