She's My Sleeping Pill-Chapter 769

769 BREWING STORM

“I believe that she’s gaining consciousness but she might not be fully aware of where she was. The chances of her survival are now higher but the risk of her getting amnesia increased as well. In my opinion, her survival matters most than her memory. As long as she lives, there is still a possibility that she’d regain her memories.”

The doctor’s words repeatedly echoed inside Thomas’ head and he was lost in thought. As much as possible, he wanted her to survive with her memories intact, but if God thinks it was too much to ask for, he was fine with her losing her memories.

“Let’s have faith in them. They are doing their best to save her.” Stefan told Thomas while watching Cayenne talk with Monet’s mother from afar. He wanted to tell him something but he closed his mouth again to keep the matter to himself. He didn’t want to jump to another conclusion. “Take care of yourself always. If you ever need help, you can always call me or my wife.”

“Thank you, Stefan.”

Friends didn’t have to be always together to know that they are real. Real friends are those that stay through thick and thin. They weren’t always there but when you needed them, they’d come.

Because of Cayenne’s pregnancy, they bid farewell so that she can take a rest in their hotel room. They could not have dinner together because of what happened to Monet earlier, so Monet’s mom promised that they’d have lunch together tomorrow before they leave the country.

That evening, Cayenne slept hugging Stefan so tight. He could still remember how much he needed her warmth to get through the night in the past. He would always cling to her and it never really occurred to him before that she would need him like this. Stefan felt so grateful.

Since she still needed to attend her class on Monday, Stefan and Cayenne left immediately after having lunch with Mrs. Lhuillier. Thomas refused to leave this time because he was afraid that something would happen and Monet would be left all alone there. f𝙧𝒆𝚎𝑤e𝚋𝓷o𝘷𝗲l.c𝐨m

On their way back to A City, they didn’t have time to stop and rest. From Baguio to Manila, to NAIA, and back to their city; it was more than 12 hours of travel and they only got the chance to rest on the plane. Cayenne was so exhausted that she slept the whole time she was on the plane. Even when they arrived, she was still snuggling close to her husband.

.....

“Sir, we have landed already.” The stewardess told Stefan through the intercom. “Most passengers have left already.”

“Thank you,” Stefan responded and waited for another five minutes. Not long after, Tristan called to tell him that he has arrived to pick them up. Stefan stood at once with Cayenne in his arms and the stewardess came forward to help him with the suitcases.

It was only when they got off the plane and she felt the breeze on her face that Cayenne stirred in her sleep. Looking up, she saw her husband’s handsome face. He smiled at her and she smiled back before burying her face in his chest “I love you, hubby.”

“I love you, too. I love you to the moon and back.” 𝘧r𝑒𝘦𝒘𝘦𝙗ｎovel.𝐜o𝒎

“And the baby?”

“And the baby.”

Tristan saw them from afar and he could not stop himself from shaking his head. He really wondered if there will be a day when the two of them stop feeding dog food to others. He was only spared from it because Elena finally gave him a chance of having a relationship with her.

It was already 3 AM when they reached their house and Cayenne has a class at 8 o’clock in the morning. Stefan didn’t hesitate to call her professors for morning classes and told them that she’d be joining the class online. Who would refuse him? No one. Anyway, he wasn’t helping her in getting high scores. Her grades would still depend on her.

Things were going well so far for Cayenne. Her foundation was receiving good feedback from non-government foundations as well as from the local government units that inspects her project. Since this was a private-owned foundation, she didn’t have to worry about things like fraud and whatnot. She was using the money she earned from her vlogging account as well as from the donation that her friends and other people come up with.

As for the donations, she has a separate account for that to make sure that they will be accounted for accordingly. With the help of so many people, Cayenne didn’t have a hard time managing it.

Finally, the day for them to show up as guests in a variety show has come. There were so many people who anticipated their participation in this show and one of them was Joy. Since the couple can’t show up in her show after what she did, she decided to watch them from the opposing TV station. She hated her, in the past and now. She could not understand why it was so easy for her to attract people when she has nothing at all.

With her face mask, Joy successfully mingled with the audience and sat with them on the set. The show wasn’t starting yet so she wasn’t able to see Cayenne and her husband. Thinking about her husband, Joy hated Cayenne even more. [She had Arthur then Seiji came. Now, she has Stefan Dumrique. Tsk! Such a slut.]

Inside the dressing room, Cayenne felt the chills on her spine. She felt a bad premonition but she had no idea of what it would be. She checked her things to make sure everything was fine and double-checked Stefan’s belonging as well. “What were you planning to cook?” She asked while checking her bag.

“Do you have any cravings?”

“I want to eat dumplings.”

“Fried or boiled?”

“Both.”

“Got it. I’ll talk to the hotel supplier to bring some ingredients here.”

While Joy was planning to sabotage this show, the couple was just talking about the food that one would cook while the other ate. Cayenne could only pray that everything will be fine.

“Hey, I heard that Cayenne’s friend got into an accident recently. Is it really okay that she attends this show? I’m worried that people will think badly of her.” Joy told the other audience and it was the trigger that made people think Cayenne was insensitive and unsympathetic. “She should visit her friend instead of coming here.” Joy added and the people around her frowned. [Heh! Just you wait. I will destroy you thoroughly.]
