She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 152 - ARTHUR KNEW

"Hahaha." His maniacal laughter rang in four corners of his apartment room. It was a place that his family didn't know of. Every time he wanted to escape from his mother, he'd come to this place. "So, my mother had been giving her a hard time. And she caused Cayenne to stay away from me." Arthur muttered while looking into the investigation result. He had asked someone to look into Cayenne's information from five years ago until now. A deep sigh escaped his lips as he looked into the picture in his hand. Cayenne was smiling brightly just like how she smiled back then when the two of them were together. Sadly, she's now happy in someone else's arms.

"She lied to me. Her brothers lied to me. Her mother lied to me. They all ganged up together and lied to me. Is it so fun fooling me around?" Arthur questioned himself once again. His eyes darkened and his mood started to fluctuate. He picked up a pen and stabbed it on Stefan's picture, leaving only Cayenne with no marks and holes. "I'll take her back. No matter what I'll take her back. She's mine to begin with."

He stabbed Stefan's photo again and again and when he was finally satisfied, he sat up straight and took a deep breath. He stood up and walked directly to one of his walls, the one facing his bed. He caressed the photo frame that cages the adorable picture of him and Cayenne. It was taken by Cole when they were still in third grade of primary school. He liked her since then. "My sweet Cayenne, you're badly influenced by that demon. You shouldn't associate yourself with him. His family will never like you." He muttered but then he realized something. "If you're with me, only my mother will be against us. If I erase her existence in this world, will you come back to me?"

One of his walls was full of pictures of him and Cayenne, since they were small until recently, when he came back from States. It's really creepy to see someone who could keep these pictures on his wall right in front of his bed.

"Tsk! I'm showing my true colors once again." He told himself and covered his face for few seconds. When he let go of his hands, the gentle and kind Arthur appeared once again. "I've got to be the kindest person to her."

Thirty minutes before lunch break, Cayenne changed her uniform into her own normal clothes and waited for the time for her to clock out for break.

"Are you going somewhere?" Manager Kim asked when she saw Cayenne coming out of the lounge with different clothes.

"I'll have to accompany him to the hospital. We'll be back before the afternoon shifts starts."

"Okay. You take care of yourself." Manager Kim told her and walked to the restaurant of the hotel to let the chef know that Cayenne won't be having lunch in the hotel.

Stefan was already waiting for her at the parking lot. He was using a different car to make sure that no one would recognize him with Cayenne. It would be troublesome for her if some people knew that she's going out with their boss. He didn't want her to face any kinds of problems at all.

As soon as the clock strikes 12 o'clock, Cayenne pressed her index finger on the biometric and left in a hurry.

"She's probably going to have a secret date with her boyfriend again." One of the employees commented.

"That's what happens when you date a celebrity." Another employee commented.

"I'm really wondering which celebrity is she dating. I want to know which entertainment company and if that celebrity is my male god."

"I don't think Cayenne will tell us."

"She's not just protecting her privacy but the privacy of her boyfriend, too."

One of the employees who works with Cayenne before looked at the other people and then to her phone. She has her own speculations but she didn't dare say it. She's afraid to lose her job. She would rather keep her mouth shut and live her peaceful life.

Cayenne arrived at the basement and found the blinking headlights of the car that Stefan and Chris were using. The moment she sat on the back seat, a strong arm pulled her closer to him and kissed her face. "What took you so long?" Stefan asked her while Chris started the engine of the car, ignoring the sweet cuddling couple.

Cayenne held his hand and kissed the back of it and smiled. "I had to wait for everyone to get out of the elevator. Were you waiting for a long time?"

"Not really." Stefan responded. He was saying that but in fact, he waited for her for more than an hour. He ended his work early in the company because he thought it will be traffic and he didn't want her to wait for a long time. Who would have thought that they'd arrive so early and Cayenne was still working?

Cayenne was hugging his waist and was leaning his head on his chest. Stefan's left hand was on her shoulder, caressing the tips of her hair while she was holding his right hand, intertwining their fingers together.

"By the way, can you help me with something?" Cayenne stated almost a whisper but since they're so close, he was still able to hear it.

"What is it, my Queen?"

"I told my mother that I needed to work because we have to pay the hospital bill. But, I was lying to her. Someone paid our hospital bill and I had no idea who it was."

"So, you want me to find out who was behind it?" Stefan asked directly. There's a strange expression in his eyes when he looked towards Chris but, because Cayenne wasn't looking at him, she didn't see that silent exchange between the two men with her.
