She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 300 - ERWIN II

"And what does my father say?"

"He told me that he wasn't looking for talent. But he was trying to save a life before it's ruined."

Stefan raised his brow in disbelief at this point. "Does that mean, all the guards he hired couldn't even kill a fly?!"

"Of course, not. Everyone can kill more than a fly, except me." Erwin responded while feeling a little embarrassed about it. "And guess what was my first mission when I became his guard?"

"Nothing comes to mind." Cayenne answered honestly. "Just tell me."

"I was tasked by his wife to find your school and look after you from afar."

"Ingrid asked you to do that?!" Cayenne asked in disbelief.

"You're not just making things up for my wife to like that madam, are you?" Stefan asked with his narrowed eyes.

"No, I'm not. I'm telling the truth. In fact, the scholarship you got when you were in primary and secondary school came from her. She didn't tell sir Reuben about it but he found out anyway. But don't tell the madam that sir Reuben knows. Until now, sir didn't tell his wife that he knew what she was doing behind his back."

"Are you the one who paid my mother's medical bills?"

"No, it wasn't me. It was some other personal guard who's also your father's secretary."

Cayenne nodded her head without saying anything. No wonder her classmates feared her before. Someone was actually guarding her secretly, making people think she was someone that can't be messes with.

"Don't worry. I'll pretend I didn't hear anything." Cayenne told Erwin while putting the fried rice on another platter. "So, in other words, you grew up in my father's side since you were eighteen?"

"Hn."

"And how long is it now?"

"I've been with him for eight years now."

"So, you're twenty-six years old?" Cayenne asked with her eyes blinking. "You look really young. I thought you're the same age as me."

"You flatter me." Erwin placed the utensils on the dish dryer and wiped his hands with the towel on the side.

"Have you ever thought of finding your parents? Or look for a girlfriend and start your own family?" Stefan asked him while carrying the platter of fried rice to the dining area. Erwin and Cayenne was following behind him.

"I wanted to look for them but I also didn't want to be filled with resentment. What if they're alive? I don't want to find out the truth why I ended up in that orphanage. And if they cared about me, why didn't they look for me? So, it's better for me to think that they're dead. As for having a girlfriend, I'm not really sure about that. I haven't found anyone that caught my interest."

"What do you usually do during your free time?"

"I play video games or watch movies."

"I don't think you'll find a girl while you're holed up inside your room. How about you and my brothers go out and have some fun while we're gone?" Cayenne suggested. She didn't want the man to live alone for the rest of his life and keep guarding them. He deserved to love and be loved.

"I'll ask if they want to go but most probably, we'll just stay and play in the game room." Erwin replied as he sat on his chair.

"You and Luiz are hopeless. At least, Kyle have someone already."

"Luiz is still young." Erwin retorted.

"He is young but you are not growing young anymore. You can't just live your life guarding us for the rest of your life."

"I know." Erwin thought about it too but he just couldn't find someone whom he's interested with or someone who's interested with him. While thinking of the things that Cayenne said, someone came to his mind but he didn't dare go on deeper on that thought.

The three of them ate their breakfast together and Stefan didn't forget to pour a glass of milk for his wife. They kept talking about Erwin, his experiences and what can they do to help him find a girl. But Erwin didn't want to force himself. If it wasn't his time to fall in love yet, then he wouldn't think too much about it. There's time for everything. And surely, there's time for his own woman to come in his life.

He wasn't aware but he already met her.

After breakfast, Cayenne took a shower. When she was done, Stefan dried her hair while she put on some facial cream on her face for skin protection. After her short skin care routine, she put on the clothes that Stefan chose for her.

Stefan put on her ring for her and she also put on his ring for him. Everyday, they would do it this way as if they're having a wedding every single day.

Cayenne put on her bracelet, the one that Stefan gave and Stefan put on his watch, the one that Cayenne gave.

"Shall we buy something for your mother?" Cayenne asked while picking up her bag, wallet and phone.

"We don't need to. Father called me earlier while you were bathing and asked if we're coming. He already prepared what to bring."

"I see. Then, shall we go now?"

"Okay."

Erwin sent them off and made sure to lock the gate of the house properly. The secret guards hiding around the perimeter of her property followed their madam and their boss.

'Do they always leave together?' Arthur thought while looking at them through his telescope. He was monitoring them everyday from morning to night but he always found them going out together. "Tsk! Such an obsess freak!" he commented while looking sharply on the smiling face of his rival.
