She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 97 - DISPLEASED KYLE

The whole family started eating dinner with Stefan. He was very attentive with Cayenne and sometimes, he would talk to her mother out of respect. As their conversation continued, he came to realize that Cayenne's mother was no longer hostile towards him. When Cayenne left for powder room, she even talked sincerely to him.

"Stefan, we clearly know of our status and I'm sure that Cayenne sincerely likes you. At the same time, I'm also well-aware of how people change their attitudes. I'm not saying that it would absolutely happen to you but, I just want you to be honest to Cayenne. If you really love her, please love her without any doubts. However, if you ever change your mind and find a better person, please don't cheat on her. It would be better if you would tell her the truth that lies in your heart instead of cheating on her."

"Auntie, I wouldn't do that. I am certain that Cayenne is the only woman for me. I will not look for someone else." Stefan retorted, his gentle and concern eyes spoke louder than his words and that brought relief to Cayenne's mother. She was happy to find that Cayenne has a man like him in her life.

"Well, we've said our piece of mind." Kyle also added. "We won't make things difficult for you. Just don't hurt her in the future. Yen has the most fragile heart and she'd easily get hurt. You might not notice it though because she's very good in hiding her emotions."

"Correct. She would just secretly cry behind closed doors and show you her sweet smile when you're together. Yen is very simple and she's not materialistic as well." Luiz mentioned something that Stefan wasn't aware of. "And honestly, even if we're not rich, you're lucky to have my sister. She's always selfless and genuinely cares for others."

The last statement was something Stefan knew. He had been observing her ever since the day that he woke up with her on his bed, drunk and worried. Even though she was in serious predicament, she didn't let anything affect her because she has family that needs her help. When he asked her help to sleep with him, although cautious, she was doing her best that he'd be able to sleep without disruptions. Even though there were times that they fought, she would never jeopardize her job.

She was doing everything she can for her family. In fact, she put herself in the last item on her priority least.

The four people talked about Cayenne and when the subject of their conversation came back from the powder room, they immediately change the topic of their conversation. Cayenne didn't notice at all and just continued to eat the food that Stefan handed her. She even ate it directly from his spoon.

Stefan was nonchalant about it. What's there to be embarrassed about? They even ate from each other's fork in the afternoon. And besides, they were with Cayenne's family. They knew about their relationship so, their actions were just natural in front of them. That's what other couples do.

After dinner, Luiz pulled out his phone from his pocket which had been vibrating since earlier. What came into view was Arthur's name. Kyle saw it too and raised his eyebrow. Ever since he came back, he had been inquiring about Cayenne and Kyle hated it so much. He borrowed his brother's phone and answered it.

"This is Kyle. Luiz is still talking with my sister."

"Did you guys just finished eating dinner?"

"Hn. Yen wanted to have a family dinner since she had been very busy with work and she got less time for us."

"That's good to know. Is she going back home with you?"

"No. She's got another work after dinner. She needs to leave again."

"That's a pity." Arthur responded with a frown. He wasn't sure if it was just imagination or not but, he felt that Kyle's voice contained irritation and displeasure. "Send my regards to Cayenne and you guys have a great night." The purpose of his call was to probe Luiz if Cayenne was really with them. He might have not noticed it but he was being doubtful of her and he wanted to make sure that she's not hooking up with someone else. He knew that Cayenne has no plans in getting into relationship but her words couldn't put his heart to rest.

Kyle didn't reply to his words and directly ended the call. He returned the phone to his brother and pulled him to a corner where Cayenne and Stefan couldn't hear them. "In the future, if Arthur calls about Yen's relationship, don't tell him anything. You must keep our sister's relationship a secret."

"Why? Isn't it better for him to know so that he'd stop chasing after Yen?"

Kyle held his brother's shoulder and looked at him deep in his eyes. "Stefan is well-known. If anyone finds out the relationship between him and Cayenne, our sister will be in trouble. People from the media will come to disturb her and Stefan doesn't want that to happen. He was protecting her and we should do the same. We cannot trust anyone outside the family."

"And that includes Arthur?"

"Hn. Arthur is not a family. He is a friend. There's a difference." Luiz nodded his head in understanding. His brother was right and all the words he said were sensible. Since it was for Cayenne's sake, he would follow it without questions.

Cayenne talked to her mother and decided to send them home. Even though her mother refused Stefan insisted with the idea due to the hour being late and Cayenne's mother was also frail. They needed to get home as soon as possible.

Cayenne sat on the front seat and her family sat on the backseat. They chatted along the way but because they were having dinner not far from home, it took them less than fifteen minutes to get back. She watched her mother and brothers got down from the car, and waved at them to bid farewell.

"I wish I can be truly part of your family." Stefan mumbled while giving them a faint smile before driving out of the vicinity.
