She's My Sleeping Pill

"Let\'s give her a month. If she won\'t do anything within a month, I will allow her to visit us at home," Cayenne said because she felt that Julia\'s true color would show up after visiting them unless she was really genuine this time.

"I don\'t mind, but I will be very strict when it comes to your security whenever she visits us."

Cayenne could only shake her head at his response. She could not do anything about her husband\'s obsession with security measures anymore. "By the way, I forgot to mention this earlier, but did Zaire ask Tristan for help regarding his father\'s whereabouts?"

"No, he didn\'t. He only asked Tristan to introduce him to a private investigator."

Cayenne knew that Zaire felt embarrassed to ask Tristan for help, but Cayenne didn\'t have any intention to force her employees to confide in her. If they felt that she could help, calling her was all it would take.

She talked to him for a few more minutes before ending the call since she needed to take a quick shower before looking for her kids.

As she ascended the stairs, Nikolai called for her attention. "Madam, I planned to visit La Granja on Sunday. Can I borrow one of your vehicles?"

"Yeah. Go ahead. Just make sure to log the details on the record book," Cayenne answered with no hesitations. This was another thing that got her curious about her new bodyguard.

Nikolai was very interested in La Granja and the Rivera family. She bumped into him a couple of times, asking his colleagues about the things they knew of the farm and its history. He also asked about Isabelle Ignacio whom Cayenne knew as Luiz\'s new \'date\' and bodyguard, and she was also Dr. Eliezer Rivera\'s girlfriend.

[Should I warn Eli about Nikolai?] Cayenne asked herself as she went upstairs. At the same time, she didn\'t want to poke a hornet\'s hive. It might put her or the Rivera family in danger. She could only observe and see what the man was up to.

On the other hand, Julia was biting the inner side of her cheeks while taking the lift to Stefan\'s office. She thought she would be able to see Cayenne and the triplets, but Stefan told her to visit him in the office instead.

Ding!

The elevator opened and Julia stepped out. The first person she saw was a woman. She tried to recall the woman\'s name, but nothing came to mind at all.

"Hi. I\'m Elena, one of the chairman\'s assistants. He\'s been waiting for you inside his office."

[Oh! Elena. I remember now.] Julia thought while following behind the woman.

Elena knocked on the door and when Stefan gave her permission to enter, she pressed her index finger on the biometric sensor for the door to open, but she didn\'t get inside. She wanted to give them time to be alone and say whatever they wanted to say to each other. After all, Julia and Stefan once had a close relationship.

Julia went inside and placed the food carrier on the coffee table. "I really hoped to talk with your wife and apologize to her for everything," Julia said as she stood in front of Stefan. "Stefan, I\'m sorry to you, too." Stefan watched his cousin without saying a word. He was unsure if she was just acting or not. "The thing that happened during my wedding, I haven\'t apologized for that, too.

I\'m really sorry," she said while fiddling with her fingers in anxiety. "When I heard that you came with another woman and neglected Sabrina, I felt annoyed. I liked Sabrina a lot and I thought that you two were a good match. So, I acted on impulse. I\'m sorry."

Her eyes had turned red already from holding back her tears. She didn\'t want to cry in front of his cousin at all even when her nose stung in pain.

"I guess, I had my share of shortcomings, too," Stefan responded while putting down his pen on the desk. "I should have told you about Cayenne before going to your wedding and we could have avoided that awful episode. Anyway, it is already in the past. Let\'s forget it."

"But I\'m not sure yet if your wife would forgive me, too."

"Ayen is not a vengeful person," Stefan stated which was something he didn\'t believe in his heart. [She won\'t retaliate if the target was her, but when it was the people around her, Cayenne would never let the culprit go unscathed. She will do everything in her power to make the culprit pay.

"Do you think I can visit her during working hours? I mean, she has a foundation here, right? She must be very busy."

"Yes, she is busy, but she rarely comes to the foundation office because most of her work is done at home. She only comes here to do some inspections."

Julia nodded her head in understanding. "Alright. I will wait until she\'s not busy anymore."

Stefan just went along with Julia\'s words. He was very reluctant to trust her. "What did you bring for her, by the way?"

"Right! I almost forgot. Do you have a fridge here? I made a cake for her with Leonora\'s help," Julia responded and even mentioned the chef\'s name to disperse Stefan\'s suspicions about the food she made. "Leonora said that it\'s delicious, so I hope Cayenne would accept this."

[She has done her assignment.] Stefan thought with a faint smile on his lips. "My wife loves sweets. I am sure she will be delighted. Give me a sec," then he called Elena to come over so she could get the dessert and place it inside the refrigerator.

"Does Cayenne like shopping?"

"It depends. Ayen only shops when she really needed something but we always make a schedule for it since we\'re both busy. Most of the time, the helpers at home and her vlogging team would buy the things for her."

Julia pouted and sighed. "I wish my husband would allow me to work as well."

Stefan heard about Julia\'s princess-like life from his business partners in Italy. They said that Julia was not allowed to work because her husband didn\'t want to see her getting stressed over something, but she was receiving a monthly allowance from him, in addition to the monthly profit she was getting from a small corporation.

She was living a rich life even when she was not doing anything.

[I really wish you are genuine this time, Julia. I cannot even imagine what I would do to you if you hurt my wife and my kids.]
