She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 227 - LATE NIGHT TALK

Sabrina just ignored the lovebird's intimacy in front of her. It was her fault for coming to their nest so, she had to put up with the dog food their displaying.

"By the way, do you guys have any plans for tomorrow? My friends and I were planning to go and have trip in Venice. It's been a while since we had time to shop."

"That coincides with our plan." Cayenne replied to her. "Stefan and I was planning to go there tomorrow."

"Would you guys want to go there together?" Sabrina asked a suggestion. She wanted to spend more time with Cayenne but she was worried about disturbing their date as well.

"That would be fine. We'll be staying there for four days so, I don't mind you disturbing my date for a day." Stefan responded which made Sabrina roll her eyes at him. Whenever he can, he will flaunt his love in front of her.

After having an afternoon tea time with Cayenne and Stefan, Sabrina left and called her friends about their plan. She also informed them that a special guest will be joining them as well. However, she didn't tell them about Cayenne's identity.

During dinner, Stefan and Cayenne ate their food at the back garden. It was a candlelit dinner that Stefan prepared with the help of his butler and chef. He needed to make it up to her, after, she's been giving her so much stress in the past few days.

"This is for you." Stefan gave her a bouquet of red roses. "I picked them and arranged them myself. I hope you like it."

Cayenne received the flowers with a bright smile and kissed his lips. "I love it. Thank you."

He pulled the chair for her and after making sure that she's comfortable enough, he walked to the opposite side and sat on his chair. Since they're in Italy, he prepared her some Italian dishes like Linguine Alle Vongole, Lasagna, Grilled Tuscan Steak and other side dishes. And to top it all, a wine should never be missing.

"Why did you prepare this kind of dinner? We could just eat normally in the dining room." Cayenne commented in wonder.

"I have been causing you so much trouble even though I was planning to make this a romantic and a memorable trip. Sometimes, my brain would just tell me to do some naughty things and I ended up hurting you. So, I want to make it up to you."

"I see. Well, thank you for doing this. At the same time, you don't have to do this much next time. Just stay with me and everything will be alright. Being with you is romantic and memorable for me, regardless of the place."

Stefan smiled and reached out for her hand across the table. He linked their hands together while giving her a gentle gaze. "I love you, my Cayenne Ardolf Dumrique."

"I love you, too, my dear husband." Cayenne raised their hands and she kissed the back of his palm. Usually, it would be Stefan who would do this but she wanted to be in equal footing with him. If he can do it, so can she.

They talked about trivial matter during dinner and while she was busy eating, Stefan took the chance to take picture of her. Although he couldn't show her face, showing her hand holding his was enough. He posted it in his timeline which made people ogle on this news again. It's been a while but still had no idea who was Stefan's girlfriend.

'Being with you is romantic enough for me.' Stefan placed this caption together with the picture. He also added some pictures that he took secretly when they left yesterday. All of them were showing her back or a little bit of the side of her face. He made sure that all angles won't give away her identity.

"So sweet."

"I want to have a candlelit dinner, too."

"Look at those roses! It's really beautiful."

"I am still curious with the identity of the girl."

"I agree. I am still wondering who's the girl this time."

"I can see that he's serious. It's been a long time and I am seeing this girl in all of his posts."

"Hopefully, this will be the last girl."

"They're having Italian dishes. Did they asked an Italian chef or did they go to Italy?" Among all the comments, Stefan only replied to this comment. 'Italy.' This was what he placed which garnered a lot of attention from other people.

Kyle and Luiz had been paying attention to Stefan and Cayenne. They wanted to know what they're doing and if they're fine. After all, their sister was away from them. Seeing Stefan's post, Kyle was happy that his sister was being taken cared of. He had no idea that Cayenne had been through something stressful in the past few days.

Luiz gave this post a heart but he didn't leave any comment. He didn't want anyone to know that they're close – very close.

While some people were still speculating, some got ideas of who was the girlfriend but they couldn't prove it. In Stefan's picture, Cayenne was taking selfies and some pictures of the scenery. Yesterday afternoon, Cayenne posted some pictures on her timeline and somehow, the scenery where Stefan took pictures and where she took pictures, were the same.

But given that they don't have proof, they couldn't really say that Cayenne and Stefan were in a relationship. They thought that it might just be a coincidence that the two of them were in the same place.

But you know what, sometimes, gut feeling could be true. It's just up to you if you want to believe it or not.

Back in Italy, Cayenne and Stefan finished their dinner within an hour. After dinner, the two of them showered together. Stefan didn't do anything this time. He was well-behaved and just helped her bath. This time, Cayenne didn't sleep in the guest room. Under the view of the lovely moon, the two of them cuddled each other to sleep.

"How did you get inside the master bedroom when I locked it? Also, you were able to get in the guest room even though I made sure that the locks were in place." Cayenne whispered while drawing circles on his back. "Did you have some secret ways to unlock your door locks here?"

"Nope. But I have a way to get inside." Stefan whispered back while running his fingers through her hair. "There are secret passages to get to this room and to the guest room beside this."

"Really? You must be kidding me. Why do you put some secret tunnels leading to this room?"

"It's because my grandfather and grandmother often fought when my grandma was still alive. When she's angry, she would use the guest room to sleep the night away. My grandfather thought of connecting the master bedroom to the guest room through a tunnel. In that way, when she's asleep, he can come and find her."

"Just like what you did." Cayenne stated flatly. "How did you know about these passages? You weren't close with your family back then, right?"

"I wasn't close with them but I've been thrice when I was still a kid. My grandmother likes me so much and she always reminded my grandfather that even if I can't have other things, this house must be given to me. She showed me the passages back then. I never thought that everything would end up in my hands."

"Did you ever think of getting this wealth when you were young?"

"Nope." Stefan shifted his gaze and looked at the ceiling instead. "When I left, I swore to destroy them and then I realized that even though they didn't love me, they still raised me for several years. So, I gave up on the idea of destroying them. I am contented with my life without their support. I am happy with all the achievements I got. But since they gave them to me, I decided to take care of this wealth. Our children will need them in the future."

"I thought you didn't want me to have a child."

"We can adopt." Stefan replied almost instantly. "We can adopt an infant and raise it like our own."

"But what if I get pregnant?" Cayenne challenged him. "What will you do? Will you ask me to abort it just because you don't want me to give birth?"

"Hell, no!" Stefan exclaimed. "If you really want a child, we can have one. I can allow you to have one child. No more than that. It's scary to think of the hellish pain you'll have to go through for the baby."

"Silly." Cayenne chuckled at his response. "Giving birth to a child won't hurt all the time. There are some exercises that I can do to make it less painful and besides, if it's too much, we can always go for CS. But I still think normal delivery is better."

"Alright. We'll think about having children when you're twenty-five. You're still young, there's no need to hurry on this matter."

"But what if I want a child before I turn twenty-five?"

Stefan turned his head and looked straight into her eyes. "My wife, are you testing my control tonight?"

"Alright. Twenty- five it is. Let's not do anything until I turn twenty-five, then."
