Chapter 627
She's My Sleeping Pill
That night, Stefan and the guards were busy cooking in the kitchen. Since she wanted to eat seafood, they dropped by the wet market earlier to buy more ingredients. They got shrimps, scallops, lobsters, crabs, squids, fishes and big clams. They also bought some fruits drinks. Itâs good to eat lots of food with more people so, they invited the guards and the caretaker of the house who gave some food to them when they last visited the place.
The old couple were as energetic as ever and they accompany Cayenne at the living room, playing chess with her. The old man knew how to play it and Cayenne has basic knowledge because her brothers and other men at home like to play it and she got time to watch them on more than one occasion.
The wife of the caretaker was just enjoying the game while watching them. She didnât know how play chess but Cayenne promised to play scrabble with her after one round of chess.
While she enjoyed their company and while Stefan cooked dinner, people from the city and other parts of the country was fed with dog food.
Earlier, Stefan was very busy with his phone, asking her questions without even looking at her; and that was because of the photos he took last year and this year.
-Last year, I couldnât show your face to anyone, worried that people will judge you for being with me. I didnât want them to know you as well, scared that theyâd say horrible things about me and youâd choose to leave me. In the end, my worry was useless. Ayen, thank you for staying with me, for choosing me, for trusting me and for being so understanding. I owe it to you that my life isnât miserable now. I owe it to you that I get to enjoy the familial love which I lost from the very young age. I could no longer imagine my life without you. I donât even know if I would be able to live without you in my life. I probably saved the whole universe in my last life for me to have you this time. This life and the next, and the next, next, next, I will always love you. Happy 1 year of being with you. Ah! This isnât the official date of us dating but it was the date when we sit and talked things about ourselves and open up with our feelings. Iâll greet you in our official dating date, registered wedding date and in the future, our church wedding date. Look forward to it.
P.S. To the singles, be envious. â

The media found the pictures and wanted to get showbiz interview with Stefan and Cayenne but when they contacted Elena, they found out that the two people have gone somewhere to spend time together.
Aside from the media, the post itself gained a lot of reactions from different people. Some were even furious for the last message that Stefan left and all of them were single.
âMr. Dumrique is such a show-off! Stop posting your love life!â
âI hope your wife will break up with you!â
âI was so touched at first but when I read the last part, I wanted to smash my phone!â
âI knew it! It was Cayenne! When I saw the picture last time, I already have doubts about the girl. Yen, you traitor! You are dating him back then but you didnât even tell us.â
Others were wishing them well, praying for their everlasting relationship and for them to become stronger. A lot of the employees saw the post and they could only smile at how silly their boss was. He was already good to his employees when he was single and when he got married, he treated them even better. It was because of Cayenne who used to work hard to provide for her family.
On the other hand, Arthur who saw the picture felt lost. He knew he has no chance of being with her, not when she was single and not now when sheâs already married. Still, he felt so much regret for what he did. If he didnât force her, if he didnât act like a bastard he was, he could still probably see her. Marianne was no longer around so, thereâs no other reason for them to spend time together again. He was envious of Seiji. Although they were considered loser in the race of conquering her heart, Seiji still had reasons to see her. Theyâre considered friends. And with the last incident wherein he helped Cayenne and Stefan, he earned their trust and friendship. He wished he could have done the same thing. But then again, we canât turn back time. Thereâs no medicine for regret. Youâll just have to swallow it and move on with life.
Thankfully, he met someone who understood him. He canât say if he really loves her right now but at least, he knew that he was happy whenever theyâre together. She can make him smile and erase his worries.
Arthur pressed the comment section and typed his opinion. It was something he genuinely wish for both of them.
As for Seiji, well, he already expected a lot of dog food coming from them. He was already used to it.
âWhenâs the church wedding? Make sure to invite me. Iâd be upset if I canât see you there.â he commented with a playful smile before going back to work.
âIâm finally hearing the wedding bells.â Luna stated but when she saw Ali staring at her and to her phone, she placed the phone down and smile. âIâll finish this work now. I just took a short break. Also, itâs almost eight, canât we go home yet?â
âItâs your fault for taking so much break. You have to finish this one because it will be used for the meeting tomorrow. Iâll order something to eat. Just prioritize this.â
âAli! You donât love me anymore!â
âThrowing a tantrum wonât work on me.â Ali replied and left to get buy something to eat.
Luna sulked on her chair as she opened the file in front of her. Just seeing the paper full of words made her want to faint. She hates working in a corporate. âWorking at the hotel was better.â She thought with invisible tears.
Many people have seen the post and commented on it, Jillyanna and Travis didnât let this opportunity pass to tease the couple, too. Riley left a comment on the post as well, followed by Winter and other close people. It was shared by many people as well, letting more single people feel frustrated.
