She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 654: NOTHING IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN HIS WIFE

“Tomorrow is Christmas Eve. Is everything prepared?” Cayenne asked Lucia who just came back from vacation along with her daughters. Although they were helpers, Cayenne included them to join the party and have some fun.

It’s been three days since she visited the Stefan’s father and grandpa. So far, she could see that her husband was doing his best to accommodate the two men even though he felt annoyed with it. In exchange to getting along with them, Magnus and Ferdinand will no longer message Cayenne or in anyway mention about having a baby. When he thinks about it, Stefan nodded to himself since he won against them.

In the kitchen, Cayenne was checking the food ingredients for tomorrow’s party. She doubled check everything to make sure that they wouldn’t face any last-minute problem.

Watching his wife, Stefan pulled out his phone and took a picture of her. He contemplated for a while if he should post it but decided otherwise.

Far away from City B, in the suburb where a huge mansion stood tall and imposing, three men were having a party of their own with lots of booze and women to complete the set. They decided to give Stefan and his family a merry Christmas, to allow them to be happy before they’d make their kill and destroy their happiness.

“Boss, you are very wise to have thought of this.” one of the men commented with his arm slung over a woman’s shoulder.

“I just thought about what you said and you had a point.”

.....

“So, are we just going to have fun tonight?” one of the woman asked and purred, kissing the man’s neck and touching his chest to pleasure him a little.

The man slapped the woman’s butt and groped it, making her yelp but smile in the end.

One of the men has started making out with the prostitutes already. They baited them with huge income for tonight’s party and given how much they needed money to survive, they agreed happily. All they needed to do was to pleasure these men in any way possible.

In the past three days, Cayenne haven’t checked her social media account. Her friends who have personal contact information of her sent her messages through text and sometimes, they’d give her a call. She rarely opened her social media account unless Stefan posts something or if she posts something on her YT account.

Elia had been checking her phone from time to time. She didn’t have Cayenne’s personal info. They only met once during her vacation so she has no other choice but to message her thru her social media account.

If Tristan didn’t take down the news of Cayenne’s kidnapping incident, Elia would have known the truth by now.

“It’s been three days. You still got no reply from your friend. Something must have happened to her.” A colleague of hers commented while taking supplies for a patient.

“Don’t jinx her.”

Elia put away her phone and continued with her work. She was busy typing when she noticed someone standing behind her computer. When she looked up, she saw the new nurse standing there.

“Oh! Nurse Chin. You startled me. Is there anything I can help you with?” Elia asked but her eyes went back to the computer screen.

“I need to talk to you.” Artemis stated with her calm voice. She was currently disguised as a nurse just to infiltrate the institution. Along with her sister, they couldn’t wait for Tristan’s back up to come before starting.

Elia cocked her head to the side, thinking what they could talk when they’re not really close. “Just give me a sec.” Elia closed the information site that she accessed and turned the computer off. “I’m free now.”

Artemis pulled Elia to a vacant room and locked the door behind her. This scared Elia a little bit. For some reason, the gentle nurse in front of her looked really scary. “Did I offend you unknowingly?” Elia asked in almost a whisper, not wanting to annoy the woman in front of her.

Artemis looked at the woman in front of her. From the voice, she could tell that she got the right person. “Do you know a woman named Cayenne?”

Elia’s eyes widened and she instantly covered her mouth as if to stop herself from saying ‘yes’ but with her actions, it was easier to deduce the truth.

“It’s alright. I am her cousin.” Artemis added. Never in her wildest dream did she ever think that a day would come for her to use Cayenne as an excuse. It’s not that she hates her but they weren’t close to begin with either.

“And what do you want from me?” Elia questioned. She was still confused why Cayenne’s cousin would approach her. “And, I just know her but we are not close. I don’t even dare think that we are close friends.”

“Then, why are you looking for her auntie?”

Elia tilted her head to the side and frowned. Aside from her, only two people know about her inquiries regarding the patients. And she knew that these two people won’t tell anyone because of their personal interest.

“Look, I don’t know where you got that news but I am not looking for them. I just thought that Cayenne looked familiar.”

“So, you think that someone in this place has a little resemblance of her?”

“Yes. I sent Cayenne a message but she didn’t reply. She was probably offended that I asked her something about a possible relative who stays in a mental institution.”

“No, you are right.” Artemis stated. “Do you know where these people could possibly be?”

“How can you prove that you are Cayenne’s cousin?”

Artemis sighed and thought of a way. She didn’t want to expose her disguise yet. ‘It would be worrisome if this woman turns out to be a traitor.’ Artemis thought to herself while looking at Elia.

“Give me a sec.” Artemis looked around and found the bathroom. “Don’t go away. I’ll let you talk to Cayenne.” She mentioned as she walked towards the bathroom. When she got inside, she immediately locked it and pulled out her phone. She didn’t have Cayenne’s number but she has Seiji’s contact from their previous cooperation to rescue Cayenne.

Seiji was sleeping soundly in C country when he was woken up by a phone call. Still groggy, he picked up the call and placed it on his ears. “Seiji speaking.”

“Sei, can you give me Cayenne’s number?”

“Who are you?”

Artemis raised her eyebrow and looked at her phone screen once again. She confirmed that she got the right number. “Sei, did you pick up the call without looking at the caller? It’s me, Artemis.”

“Oh!” Seiji was jolted awake and sat on his bed. He looked at the caller and confirmed it was Artemis. “Why are you even calling me in this ungodly hour? It’s in the middle of the night here, you know.”

“Sorry about that but I really need Cayenne’s number. I have to call her now.”

“Can’t give you her number.” Seiji responded with stoic expression. “I can give you Stefan’s contact instead. For sure, they’re together. You can get to her through him.”

“That’s fine, too.”

Seiji checked the time once again which showed few minutes past 1o’clock in the morning. “What are you up to this time?”

“I just needed some confirmation from her. Don’t worry, I won’t put her in danger.”

“I know you aren’t stupid to do that. Anyway, I’ll send you his contact info. I’ll go back to sleep now.” Seiji ended the call and sent Stefan’s information to Artemis. Thinking that she was up to no good again, he sent her another message. “Be careful always. Don’t be stupid and include Cayenne in your scheme. Dress well and eat well.”

Artemis who received the message had her lips pursed in thin line. She didn’t expect that he would still care about her. “Well, we were childhood friends after all.” She told herself and contacted Stefan immediately.

In City B, Cayenne and Stefan were preparing to sleep as well. She just got out of the shower carried by her husband who exhausted her in the bath.

“When will you be satisfied with one round?” she whispered softly.

Stefan chuckled and kissed the tip of her nose. ‘So adorable.’ He thought to himself. “Not in this life or the next my love.” He answered to her question as he put her to the soft couch. “Let me dry your hair.”

“Let me do it. Your phone has been ringing but you are ignoring it.” Cayenne commented helplessly. When he’s beside her, no matter how important other things are, he will ignore them for her. At some point, she feels guilty for those other people.

“I’ll get to it when I’m done with you.”

“Shall I answer it then?”

“Great suggestion.” Stefan grinned and walked to the bedside table for his phone. The number was unknown which made him think twice if he should give it to her. “Let’s answer it later. It’s an unknown caller.” He took a screenshot and sent it to Tristan instead.

“It could be someone important.”

“I have contacts of important people in my phone.”

“So, your father and grandpa belongs to the important ones.” She teased him but Stefan’s answer made her roll her eyes.

“I don’t have their contact numbers saved in my phone. I memorized it though.”
