She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 357 - TALK BETWEEN MEN

"I didn't."? Cayenne said while shaking her head left and right.

"How can you win all the time if you didn't cheat?"

"Why can't I win? Can you not accept the fact that you lost to me?" Cayenne rolled her eyes, pretending to be innocent in front of him. The students giggled and left them alone, giving Stefan space to deal with his wife.

Stefan raised his hand and slightly pinched her face. "How can you win against me, a national swimming champion, when you don't have much endurance and stamina?"

"My. My. Who is so shameless as to exploit my weakness and get kisses from me?" Cayenne returned him a question which made Stefan smile. "I was right with doing few tricks against you. If I didn't, I'd lose to you every round."

"Why are you so hung up in kicking me?"

"Hmp! That's to get back at you for what you did this afternoon."

Stefan laughed once again while giving her a warm hug. "My wife is the smartest." Stefan stated as he kissed the top of her head. "So, you got out of the pool and just ran to the other end to win against me, right?"

"Hn."

"I never thought you'd use this trick against me."

"If not you, who should I use it against with? Besides, I don't compete with anyone else but you."

The two of them spent more time chatting and hugging while they're still in the pool. The students also played and chatted on the other end.

Half an hour later, Luiz bid farewell to his sister and brother-in-law to go back to the secret garden. Chris already made reservation of the place and it's up to the students as to how they would make their surprise.

Now, only Cayenne and Stefan were left to watch over the students along with the body guards. "Do you want to go to the beach?" Stefan asked her while looking at the beach not far from them.

"Hn."

They got off from the pool and put on the robe that the bodyguard handed to them, then they walked to the beach where the other students stayed. Some of them were swimming and some were just chatting casually. Some were talking about their future and some were talking about work.

"What are you guys talking about? You look so serious and anxious. You should be having fun." Cayenne told the students who were sitting on the sand.

The students just smiled faintly at them and shook their heads to tell her everything was alright. Stefan on the other hand knows men. They tend to keep things within and suffer on their own.

"Why don't you take a swim in the sea? I'll look after the students here." Stefan told Cayenne to give the boys a space. For sure, they didn't want Cayenne to hear them being weak. The children have pride on their own.

Cayenne knew what he was planning so she nodded her head and removed the bathrobe. She handed it to Stefan and went to take a dip in the sea. Stefan was still looking at her but his words were directed to the students. "Many people say that I was born with silver spoon but within the social circle of the rich people, I didn't belong in it. I was a nobody at home. I was ignored and only my older brother paid attention to me. Sadly, he passed away which forced our family to hand the business down to me. Before getting to where I am now, I was once a student with nothing. I depended on other people's help and generosity. Now, I want to help students as much as I can as well. So, if you have any problem, you can tell me and I'll think of ways to help you."

The students were silent at first while looking at the sea where Cayenne was playing with other female students. "Sir, you're so blessed with Luiz's sister. We heard so much about her from Luiz and we all thought she's a very good person."

"Well, she's indeed good. She's the best gift I ever received in my life. She's far more valuable than my riches. I can give up anything but her."

"You really love her, don't you? Many female students here were envious of your relationship because you dotted on your wife so much." Another student commented.

"She's my priceless possession. And if you love a person, shouldn't you dote on her? You should spoil her and let her be happy. Because a happy wife is a happy life."

"That's true." The all agreed to his words.

Another silence enveloped them but this time, one of the students finally opened up to him. "Me and my friends here, have talked about getting a job right after school. We're practically neighbors and we depended on a government scholarship to finish our study. However, the scholarship doesn't cover our study for tertiary level. Given that we're poor and we're not as smart as Luiz and Clarisse to get higher scholarships, we better find a job. In any case, after studying in college, you will still go and find a job. Isn't it better to start early?"

"If you're given a chance to study, what courses are you guys taking?" Stefan asked them while formulating things in his head already. He might not be able to help all students out there but helping small number of people was still better than not helping at all.

In fact, Stefan had been giving scholarships to students and discounts to his apartments. The only requirement was for them to study hard and become a better version of themselves. They're not allowed to bring liquor inside his apartment building and there's a curfew as well. He wanted to help as much as he can.
