She's My Sleeping Pill

First, she received a gift from Ferdinand which she wanted to refused because of its value. However, when she knew that it was previously owned by Stefan’s grandmother, she finally accepted the gift and treated as an heirloom which will be passed down to the next generation. She felt blessed that Ferdinand trusted her to keep such a valuable item.

Second, she got better grades than everyone else during their final exam. Even if she won’t have excellent remarks because of the previous incidents that caused her to attend classes online, she was still happy because she won’t fail. There was no doubt that she was quick-witted.

Third, Brian apologized to her for causing her some troubles. And since he wasn’t really the mastermind, Cayenne just let go of the matter. She thought that there was nothing she could gain if she won’t forgive him and it will only stress her out knowing that someone out there was sincerely apologizing to her.

Fourth, two of Stefan’s amusement parks which were located in PH and J country have received the Golden Tickets Award and he was also awarded with Businessman of the Year.

Right now, Cayenne and Stefan were flying to London to attend the ceremony which will be held in three days. Travis also received several awards but since Jade’s class wasn’t over yet and he didn’t want to leave Jillyanna with the children, he just sent Shein and Savannah as his proxy.

In fact, Stefan knew about the award two weeks ago but he didn’t tell Cayenne about it yet because his plan wasn’t fully polished. Things could happen and he didn’t want to ruin his surprise.

.....

“Hon?” Cayenne mumbled softly with her head on his shoulder.

“Hm?”

There was no response. Stefan thought that Cayenne was still watching the movie in front of her but when he lowered his head to look at her, he found out that she was already sleeping.

“Sleep talking? What are you dreaming my lady?” Stefan asked to the sleeping figure even though she couldn’t answer her. He adjusted her position to make her sleeping posture comfortable and asked the stewardess for a blanket. Since they booked their flight with first class seats, Stefan wasn’t worried that Cayenne will be disturbed in her sleep. After all, they got their own bedspace for themselves.

When they arrived at Heathrow, Cayenne was fully energized after a few hours of sleep. Before, whenever they left the country for a trip, she would always go to sleep the moment they arrived at their destination because of the jetlag. Now, she decided to sleep on the plane since she wanted to visit a lot of places with Stefan while in London.

“Have you decided which place to visit first?” Stefan asked as they walked to the exit where their service was waiting for them. The organizer of the awarding event would usually send someone to pick their guests but since Cayenne and Stefan came on their own and three days ahead of time, they booked their own room and car to use.

“I’ll consult you later with my list and tell me which of them should we visit first. We don’t really need to visit all of the places that I have listed, though.”

“Alright. Can you make time for tomorrow around 4:30 in the afternoon to 7:00 in the evening? I need to meet someone.”

“Cool.” There was no doubt that she would enjoy this trip with her husband.

When they arrived at their hotel, Cayenne handed her notebook to Stefan since he knows more about Europe compared to her. In her mind, Stefan has more knowledge when it comes to visiting different countries since he has businesses all over the world. She couldn’t even imagine just how much his net worth is. She didn’t want to know even though the information can be searched online. Even if it wasn’t exactly the same amount, the estimation was very close since the survey was done internationally with trusted agencies.

“Today, let’s visit the Windsor Castle and Legoland. We can buy some toys for the kids at Legoland and send it first to our home.”

“Sounds good.”

“Tomorrow, we can visit Kew Gardens and Chessington.”

The two of them planned the places they wanted to visit while making extra time for Stefan’s appointment with someone. Cayenne asked who the person that he would meet the next day but Stefan only smiled and refused to say the name. She trusted him not to make a fool of her so Cayenne pushed this matter to the back of her mind.

Windsor Castle is a royal residence at Windsor in the English county of Berkshire and and embodies almost a millennium of architectural history. Millions of people visited this place every year and this time, Cayenne and Stefan set foot on this place.

“Hon,” Cayenne called out while looking at their pictures from Stefan’s camera. “I just remembered something while looking at our clothes. Remember the jacket that you bought me last Christmas and the shoes that Luiz gave me, I couldn’t find them anymore. Also, the watch that I gave you wasn’t at home either.”

“What do you mean? I still saw them last week.”

“Are you sure? I have been looking for those items. There’s no way I could’ve misplaced them.”

“Trust me, we didn’t lose them. Maybe you just overlooked them. I’ll ask Luiz to check the room and send us picture of those apparels.”

“Okay.”

Even though Stefan seemed calm while he conversed with her, he was actually sweating coldly on his back. He didn’t expect that Cayenne would suddenly ask about their clothes and accessories. He hasn’t prepared himself to lie to her again.

[I wish we could skip time.] Stefan thought to himself while mentally noting to ask Luiz for help later.
