She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 148 - WHO'S MY FATHER?

Without them knowing, three people were leaning on their doors, trying to listen to the conversation between the couples. Their faces were pressed on the door but they could only hear their muffled voices. In the end, they gave up in eavesdropping.

In the afternoon, Cayenne brought her family to watch a movie. They bought some things that they needed at home and lots of groceries since Stefan would be staying over with them. Stefan also bought a lot of things for his personal use. And because she refused him to pay for the things they bought, he decided to bring them to a restaurant and had dinner together.

On Monday., Kyle and Luiz had to go back to school since classes have resumed. And since Stefan wasn't able to get a nanny yet, Cayenne brought her mother over to Clover Hotel and checked her inside one of the rooms. And because her mother was considered a guest, Manager Kim told her to look after the 'guest's' needs.

Cayenne happily obliged the request in order to take care of her own mother.

"Is it just me or Cayenne has been given a lot of favors recently?" one of the employees asked.

"I don't think it that way. If I may say, Cayenne deserved the treatment. You may not know this since you worked during day time but when I was working the night shift with her, she's really diligent with her work. And she almost didn't take a day off. Whenever there's over time needed, she would volunteer herself. She works almost 24/7." Another employee responded.

"Really? Is she in need of money that much?" another person asked.

"Cayenne is the breadwinner of their family. Her mother is sick and they needed to pay so much for her hospital bill. I heard that even though her mother was discharged they still have so much balance to pay in the hospital. Her two brothers are also studying. You can just imagine how much hard work she put up all these years."

Many employees talked about Cayenne and their views of her but their impression about getting special treatment also changed. They weren't wrong though. Cayenne was indeed getting special treatment in the littlest possible way which wouldn't hinder her to still do her work in the hotel.

From time to time, Stefan would call her to check on her. And right now, that was what he was doing.

"I'll be bringing someone over tonight to take care of auntie Emerald. Chris will also install cameras in the afternoon to make sure that everything will be fine while we're gone." Stefan told Cayenne over the phone.

"Thank you for helping me solve this issue."

"No worries. I'll always be by your side to help you shoulder your burden." Cayenne was really happy to hear this. She finally found someone who would do his best to understand her and comfort her. "By the way, I have told Travis that we'll be coming over this weekend."

"Really? They're coming back already?" Cayenne couldn't hide the excitement in her voice. "Should I prepare something? What should I bring? Ahh! I am just so excited to see my goddess YNA."

"Don't be so excited about it. We still have four more days before we can come to visit them. There might be some changes."

"I hope there will be none." Cayenne responded. "Anyway, I'll come home with my mother later. You don't have to come and pick us up."

"Alright. I'll come home as early as I could."

They talked about other trivial matters before they decided to end the call. Cayenne looked towards her mother who was watching the scenery outside the glass window. "Ma, you will meet the nurse tonight. Stefan hired one for you since we will be busy working and the boys will have to focus on their study."

Emerald nodded her head but Cayenne knew that she was thinking about something else or rather, someone else. Cayenne didn't say anything anymore. She just sat on the couch and read a magazine.

"Yen?" her mother called for her attention. She raised her head and looked at her, waiting for her next words. "You said that you will go and visit your father but, you didn't visit him, did you?"

"I forgot. I got so busy with work. And besides, Kyle and Luiz visited him already."

"Does Stefan know about him?"

"No. I promise I'd tell him when I'm ready."

"Will you allow me to go and see him. You know I don't have much time left." Emerald mentioned. "I want to see him before I die." Cayenne just looked at her mother. She didn't say yes or no to her. "You can stay at home. Kyle and Luiz and come with me."

"Ma, do you really have no idea where my real father is?"

Emerald was the one who became silent this time. She didn't even look at her own daughter. She conceived Cayenne from a different man and until now, she refused to tell her who her real father is. Kyle and Luiz have the same father who wasn't staying with them at the moment, and they weren't sure if they'd get to live with each other in the future.

"Never mind, Ma. You don't have to answer my question."

"Do you really want to know?"

"Don't I have the right to know about him? He's my father after all."

Emerald smiled faintly but that smile was a sad one. "I didn't really mean to hide him from you but I didn't want you to find him."

"He's with another family?"

"Hn. He got married to someone else." Emerald responded. "Do you still want to see him? Just don't find him when he's with his family. I don't want you to be in trouble."

"There's no need to. I won't look for him." Cayenne reassured her mom. But while she decided to forget about her father, the man was actually looking after her. She just didn't know that he's been helping her all this time.
