She's My Sleeping Pill

The birthday ended with a blast despite Cayenne's dilemma with the gifts.

The triplets, though they didn't seem to have any idea of what the celebration was, they also had fun, especially Aziel and Jahzara.

As for Zeki, people were somehow aware and understanding that he was a little different from other kids.

He was like an adult that you couldn't seem to pathom what he's thinking.

It was already past eight in the evening when the last guest left.

""Let's all call it a day and rest the night away. I'll see you all tomorrow," Cayenne told her staff and got into the car without looking back.

She was so sleepy and she needs energy to complete the rest of the vlog tomorrow.

"Just take a rest. I'll wake you up when we get home," Stefan expressed and started gently patting her head.

Cayenne didn't think twice and closed her eyes. She needed it.

Rocherre: "I thought you'd take revenge. Why are you not taking any actions yet?"

Vile: "You wait and see. I am better than you."

Rocherre: "That's what you said several months ago. You have given them so much leeway and they're living such a great life while you're in sewers living a rat life."

Vile: "You're no different."

The person named Rocherre under contacts stopped sending in replies and the icon next to its names states 'offline'.

The man shoved his laptop away from him and picked up the cup of black coffee haphazardly. It has gone cold already.

"Damn it! If I can't destroy you, I'll make sure to destroy the people around you," he said in gritted teeth and slam his fist on the table.

His eyes were red from so much anger as he glared at the photos plastered on the board not far from him.

He took out his phone and sent someone a message. "There's no more waiting. Proceed with plan A."

The next day, Cayenne continued with the rest of the video that she needed to take before uploading it in the evening.

She was so busy with a lot of stuff but she always made sure that she still has time for her family and friends.

Unbeknownst to her, a small stone has been tossed in the water and was creating ripples.

It wasn't directed to her or Stefan, but it will inadvertently affect them.

Meanwhile, Luiz was lying on his bed with an incredulous expression. His phone was right next to his head and you could see David's contact picture displayed with call details.

"I know it's annoying but please don't give any statement yet. I'm sure this is just another rumor that your competitors throw at you. Just let them be," David stated to make prevent Luiz from saying something that could ruin his reputation.

This was about the news that suddenly resurfaced online. Reporters posted that Luiz had hired someone to become his girlfriend and that he was actually still meeting his ex-girlfriend.

There were so many speculations online regarding this rumor, especially that someone was able to get hold of the guest list of the party yesterday.

They didn't see his "girlfriend's name" but saw his "ex-girlfriend instead."

"David, you know my bottomline," Luiz responded in a cold tone of voice that shocked his manager.

It was the first time that he had ever heard Luiz speak that way.

"I'll speak with Belle and Clarisse about this matter. Don't go to any public places until I tell you so."

"Okay."

Although he agreed, Luiz had other plans. As soon as the call ended, he called his sister.

At this time, Cayenne was feeding the triplets with the banana purée that she made. No one had informed her of the problem that Luiz was currently facing.

"Hi," she greeted and turned speaker on. "Are you at work?"

"Nope. I don't have any work in the next few days," Luiz answered honestly but did not state any reason why. Cayenne just thought he was taking a short vacation.

"Since you're not busy with anything, do you wanna go fishing at the lake? It's been a while since we did it. It'd be great to relax once in a while with you."

"Sure. It's weekend tomorrow. We can have our family day tomorrow instead of Sunday."

"Great! I'll be waiting for you guys," Cayenne happily responded and chatted with her brother for a little while.

In the end, Luiz failed to tell his sister about his concern.

He already had an idea on how to solve the issue; he just called to know how she'd react but he wasn't able to tell her anything.

On the other hand, Cayenne stared at her phone when the call ended. She knew that her brothers won't contact her for nothing, so she decided to give him a phone call instead.

However, Luiz didn't answer her calls. Cayenne dialed his number thrice to no avail.

On the fourth time, just as she was about to press the call button, she received Stefan's message.

The content distracted her train of thoughts and though it was a little sad and unfair, she quickly forgot her reason for calling her brothers.

In the end, Stefan caught her attention and all she could think of was his message.

"I'll just finish feeding the children and put them to sleep. I'll be right there," she replied to his message and asked the nannies help her feed the kids.

[What could have happened at the foundation office? Why didn't Jackson inform me?] Cayenne asked herself with an anxious expression.

She didn't want anything to happen to the foundation that she worked so hard for to help others.

She read her husband's message to her again. [Hon, come to the foundation office as soon as you can. There's an urgent matter that needs your attention.]

No matter how much she tried to change her tone to please herself, the statement still sounded negative.

And since Stefan chose to send her a message, it only means that he's in a situation that prevents him to make phone calls.

"Ma...mama..."
